Madison's POV"There is absolutely no possible way," I sputtered, letting my eyes run through the words again and again."I thought so too. That's from the College Registrar's desk though. It's legit. It has their house style, and Devon Greenwood's official stamp. Legit through and through," Rose leaned on the desk, pointing at the letter. She wasn't wrong. Devon Greenwood was really the college Registrar."You need to contact the school as soon as possible," I looked up at her as I put the papers back in the envelope, "There must be a mix-up, a mistake or something from their end.""I'll send out an email today," Rose nodded, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. I smiled up at her, giving her a reassuring smile. Rose always worked with so much tenacity, sometimes I feared I didn't give her enough credit.I ran my hands through my hair and let out a frustrating sigh. My mind was racing, this situation made absolutely no sense. To keep a position at the company, you had to have al

Madison's POV“Andy,” My lips trembled slightly as my eyes prickled with tears threatening to form. I let my figure lean on his and wrap my arms around his waist, crying softly into his chest.Andy used his free arm to rub against my shoulder, making shushing noises with his lips.“It’ll be okay, Maddy. It’s all just a phase in your life,” He consoled, now playing with my hair.I tried to listen to Andy but it wasn’t helping. I felt more and more stuck with the thing to do next.“What do I do now?” I separated from his embrace, sniffling a little. I sat up on the couch still facing him, nose already beginning to red and clog up.“You meet the bank, Maybe in two days.” He suggested.“I'll go tomorrow,” I shook my head. It’s better done as soon as possible.“No. You need to rest, you’re pregnant remember? You've had enough walking around for a week.” Andy declined, patting my stomach gently.2 Days later“I’m meeting the bank manager today, Rose. Did you send the email regarding the pos

Tyler’s POVI woke up feeling lightheaded and a bit nauseous, a monstrous headache starting to form. I groaned and let my head fall back to my pillow. What happened yesterday? I opened my eyes slowly adjusting to the harsh rays of sunlight. I never leave my curtains open.I must have stumbled into bed after last night. I reached for the alarm clock on the bedside table and tilted it, checking the time. 6:47am.My phone. I wasn’t with my phone.I got up from bed and put on my clothes, heading downstairs to look for my phone“Mr Marshal?” Mrs Sophie called out as I crossed the kitchen. I stopped in my tracks, then did a slight jog back to the kitchen.“I have your cellphone. Miss Brenda had dropped it off but I couldn’t hand it over because you were already asleep.” She explained, reaching into her apron and handing the phone over to me. I furrowed my eyebrows.Brenda? Why did she have my phone?“Uhh, thanks Mrs Sophie,” I glanced at her, catching a glimpse of the polite smile that grac

Madison’s POVLeonard stared at Tyler, steam practically coming out of his ears. They had a long stare down, Tyler’s grip tightening on my hand before he spun around rather dramatically.Once we were out of the office, I broke away our hands and crossed my arms against my chest. We hadn’t been on speaking terms since the incident with Brenda. I hadn’t reached out to him and neither had he. Which is why I’m even more shocked that he was aware of the situation. Did Rose tell him again? I groaned internally. Rose really had problems with saying no to Tyler and I need to address that.“So, we’re going to pretend you can’t speak?” Tyler teased, hands remained stuffed in his pocket. I caught a glimpse of his shiny watch he only wore to work. That must’ve meant he came down straight from work“Because I can’t,” I huffed with a pout forming on my lips, sparing him a glance, “At least not to you.”“Why is that if I may ask?” He asked, turning on his heels to face me. I was so caught up looking

Madison’s POVI almost spat out my food in shock. My puffed cheeks moved as I tried to speak.“W-what?” I mumbled, mouth still occupied.“Madison,” A ghost of a smile played on his lips, “Madison, please swallow your food first.”A blush crept onto my cheeks as I swallowed my food and downed a glass of water.“What do you mean? Move in? With you?”“Why are you shocked?” Tyler resumed eating his food, “It’s only normal for married people to live together. Especially now you’re carrying my child,” He pointed to my stomach.“Yes, but why? I need to look after my mother,” I interjected, setting down my cutleries. Tyler’s sudden proposal already had me full enough.Tyler raised an eyebrow, mirroring my actions and dropped his cutleries too, “Does your mother not have a caretaker? Why are you taking it upon yourself?”“I still have to check on her though,” I kept my eyes trained on the dining table.“You can. Once in a while,” His hands met each other, elbows placed carefully on the desk. H
