"He's grown up to be a decent young man like his father."If Van had to sit there at the dinner table for another minute as grandfather continued to praise Jake she knew she was going to lose her appetite or worse get sick. "If only Perla had listened to me she would've lived a better life and not have been miserable with that good for nothing."That was her father he was talking about, the man who loved her and Karl unconditionally something the old man didn't possess. Should Van mention to him that if her mom had married Jake’s dad then Jake would’ve ceased to exist but she was in no mood for an argument. "Can we talk about something else?"The name Jake Calloway is giving me indigestion she wanted to add but wisely left it out.Grandfather glared at her. "You know i've had it with your insolence for one day. I don't know what problem you have with that cultured young man but you need not be rude about it, I just might accept his proposal."Ash stiffened but not too

" Baby? You mean… " his eyes fell on her flat tummy awe and he moved closer. "We.. I.. am going to be a father?" He laughed with mirth, the sound echoing across the park. "I can't believe this is real, I'm going to be a dad." He said incredulously his hand reaching for her stomach but stepped back. "This doesn't change anything Jake." The mirthful grin slipped from his face to be replaced by a frown of confusion. "What do you mean if course this changes everything." This is why she didn't want him to know about the baby just yet, he'd pressure her into coming back to him. "I am not having this conversation with you right now." "Why did you keep it from me I had the right to know?" He demanded. " Jake… " " I have the right to know I'm going to be a father. Were you ever going to tell me? "She scoffed." Of course I was going to tell you only when the time is right." " And when is that? " " I don't know! " She sna

She was pregnant.Rella stared at the piece of paper in her hand, the result of the further tests that was carried out after she fainted at the charity ball and elation mixed with fear, apprehension and uncertainty punched through her knocking out the breath out of her. Rella thought back to the events of the few weeks, she'd been too busy being a Diamond bride attending functions and various charities to notice the little changes in her body the most noticable being her fainting spell which she'd dismissed as stress. A baby. She was going to have a baby Stefan's child. A little person that would take after her or Stefan or both of them. This changes everything. Rella felt panic bubbling up until she was sick. She rinsed off the acidic taste in her mouth after she was done and tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear as she caught her reflection in the mirror imagining how she would look a few months from now. Her fingers instinctively splayed over her lower ab

"He doesn't love you."If Cindy had been hoping to hurt her for abandoning her then she was doing a pretty damn good job of it. "You don't know that. I'm the one with him, I'm the one he married." " Are you sure about that? " Cindy looked like she was enjoying tormenting her. " You don't even love him. " She bit out. " You don't know anything about my feelings Rella! Do you know what mom said to me, she said to forget about whatever feelings I might've had for Stefan, she told me to never show my face to you because you were happy. But what about me? Don't I deserve to be happy too?" Rella was sobbing quietly. "In the end she chose you, everything has to be about you." She said bitterly. "Afterall, I'm just the pain-in-ass party animal Cindy and you're the prim and proper Rella who could do no wrong." Rella had no idea Cindy thought about her like that. Cindy went on. "For years I've always wanted mom and dad's approval but I never got it. When th

Rella waited the entire night and then cried herself to sleep when she realised Stefan wasn't coming back. She woke up the next morning with sunlight streaming through the parted curtains. Her head was pounding and her throat was raw and aching from all that crying. Reaching for the glass of water on the night stand she took tentative sips to soothe her aching throat next she checked her phone to see if he tried calling but he didn't, it was Christian instead who left several missed calls for her and that could only mean one thing… Rella called him back too frantic she almost dropped the phone. He picked on the first ring. "Thank God you scared me to death." "How is he?" She asked quietly. "Passed out but he'll be fine."Rella loosed a shaky breath of relief at least she knows where he is and that he's fine and not in an alley somewhere outside a bar. " How are you doing?" Christian asked a second later. "What do you think?" "If he said
