Jace went back to the room and met Hannah tucking Stella back to bed, ignoring her complaints that she was alright already. Hannah noticed that Jace had come back so she turned to face him immediately."Who was that?" She asked."Arya, she came to return Stella's bag" he replied as he placed the bag on the small table that was Inside Stella's room.Stella creased her brows, "Arya was here? Why didn't she come in?" She asked slowly."She said she was late for work so she'll come see you in the evening" he sighed."Oh" Stella muttered and released a sigh. "Can you pass me my bag please" she added and Jace immediately did as told."Thank you" she let out a low smile as she collected it from Jace and Hannah stood up tiredly. "Jace, let's give your sister some space to be alone, come take this plate to the sink and wash it" she stretched her arms as she told him that."Mom! Really?" Jace frowned and Hannah whipped her gaze towards him with a stunning look. "What, do you expect me or Stella
Stella rubbed her eyes more then twice to check if she was seeing double but she was not, it was right there looking intact. An alert of one fifty million dollars was right there in her phone and she didn't even know where it came from, she didn't know who sent it or how it got there."Mom" she carried her phone and stepped out of the room, still in her towel. "Mom" she got to the living room and met Hannah cleaning up all the couches."Yes sweetie, good morning how was your night" Hannah immediately abandoned the duster and moved closer to Stella, she placed her hands on her forehead and neck, checking if she was down with another fever.Stella gently pushed her mom's hands off, "I'm fine mom, I wanted to show you something" she said, bringing out her phone. "What's wrong?" Hannah asked and Stella stretched the phone up to her face. "See for yourself mom" she replied, Hannah creased her brows as she looked at Stella's phone then she slowly collected it. Her eyes grew bigger as she l
Seeing that Stella was quiet, Charles grew more worried thinking that she was really mad at him for not coming yesterday. Why didn't he come visit her last night? Why did he focus more on getting promoted than visiting his sick Girlfriend but now it was too late to worry because there was nothing he could do anymore. What's done is done, he can't turn back the time so she's just going to apologize to her and make her see how much he's sorry but Charles doesn't know that he was wrong. He knocked again and this time Stella opened it, looking a bit nervous but was still trying her best to maintain a stable composure. Charles didn't even have time to study her facial expression, he just pulled her into a tight hug and began apologizing to her. "I'm sorry honey, forgive me. I know you're mad at me because I was supposed to come see you earlier but I didn't. I caused your fever because I was really obsessed with getting promoted in the company, I'm a really bad boyfriend please forgive me"
Two weeks later.These past two weeks were filled with a lot of things. Stella managed to gather up money for Jace to resume school and it wasn't from the unknown money though her mom kept having the suspicions that the money was from the man who had raped her but Stella didn't believe it. For all she knows, Davis McClure was a very ruthless man, he raped her while ignoring all of her pleadings, he took her dignity and destroyed her life so now, she has nothing other than hate for this man. Pure hatred.Stella doesn't work at the bar anymore, she felt really scared and ashamed to go back there so she's always helping her mom in her pastry shop where she makes really good bread and snacks. As for Charles,she hasn't heard from him, the last time she tried calling him she found out that he had blocked her number and not just that, he blocked her from all means of social media. He really hates and never wants to see her again because she had hurt him so much.Feeling the tears that were w
It was already 7:30 in the evening , Stella had already gone back home to dress up and the moment she was done dressing, she met Jace sitting on the couch and playing games as usual.This brother of hers! Why doesn't he learn!? She sneered inwardly and stormed over to him. "Why aren't you in the pastry shop helping mom?" She crossed her arms together as she looked at him in a scolding manner."But mom is fine doing it on her own" he replied and before he knew it the game control was snatched from his hands. "Sis!!" He cried out."Go help mom, I'm going out with Arya and mom might need some help" she said angrily."But sis I--""What's wrong, you don't wanna help mom?" Jace only mumbled for Stella to cut him off."Fine!" He stood up and left the house, mumbling something to himself, probably wondering why Stella was behaving weird these days.When Jace left, Stella added a bit of powder on her face. She tapped her cheeks repeatedly seeing that it was bloated before leaving the house. W
Stella stared at Arya confusedly still not getting what she was trying to say. What does she mean by she was the cause of her getting raped like what the hell!?"What are you talking about Arya?" Stella asked slowly and more tears came out of Arya's eyes. She gripped Stella's hands even tighter. "I drugged you that night at the party" she said.Stella slowly removed her hands from Arya's, still staring at her, "What did you say?" She asked slowly and Arya wiped the new set of tears that were about to fall from her eyes. "Can you stop crying and speak, what do you mean by you drugging me that night!!" Stella yelled, dragging attention to their side.Arya gulped all the saliva down her throat at once the moment she saw Stella's face. Her eyes were sparkling with nothing but anger and it looked like hellfire was burning through them, it almost burnt her skin too."Can you talk to Arya! What do you mean by you drugged me that night" Stella repeated and her tone shows that she was running
Hannah froze in the insides while Jace was still looking at the doctor like he was telling some jokes. When he has had enough of it, he finally spoke."What do you mean by she's pregnant with a set of twins?" He asked with crossed her arms."Young Man your sister is pregnant, that was what the test said and that was why she passed out, if you ask me.. I'll suggest that she starts getting better treatment and eating better food so her babies can be strong and healthy" the doctor replied.Hannah felt like she couldn't stand anymore so she fell back on the seat. Yes she had been having these suspicions about her daughter getting pregnant but for twins? This was something she never expected. What will they do now? How would they take care of the babies and how will Stella cope when she finds out?"Doctor, is Stella awake?" Arya who had been silent throughout finally spoke up. Her heart was racing faster and she got more scared as she received this news."Yes she's still sleeping and she r
When Stella came out of the bathroom, Hannah immediately handed her a towel to wipe her mouth. "Why did you puke? Don't you like the food, should I get you another one?" Hannah asked in a worried tone.Stella shook her head and went back to the bed then sat tiredly, "I'm full mom, need to just sleep" she rubbed on her eyes and slept on the bed.'Aren't you just waking up from sleep now!!' Jace yelled in his head as he stared at Stella who was covering herself up again. Was this how pregnant women behave and speaking of pregnant women, isn't it time for his mom to reveal this to Stella already.Jace walked closer to Hannah and placed his lips on her ears, whispering, "Mom, shouldn't you tell Stella about her pregnancy now?" Hannah just shook her head and stepped away from Jace."We'll definitely tell her, I just don't know how she will take the news but I'll tell her the moment she wakes up" Hannah replied, looking at sleeping Stella."Oh" Jace nodded and looked around as he noticed th
