CHAPTER SIXTY ONE

Stephan's sleep was violently broken by his phone which was ringing with no rest at all. Semi-comatose, he grasped his phone and answered the call, his speech still dulled by sleep.“Hello?" Stephan mumbled, his brow furrowing in confusion. Mr Rodriguez, it's me, your assistant," came the urgent voice on the other end of the line. "You need to see this. You're trending on multiple blogs.Stephan’s eyes opened wide, his heart running in a fast rhythm at cross-currents of curiosity and fear. He did not take much time to sit up on his bed, his thoughts racing and wondering as he reached for his iPad and began scrolling through the blogs. With every click he took, his heartbeat quickened, until he could barely grasp his breath. He stared at the pictures that met him on the screen his eyes widening in horror.There, shot in pieces, were photos of him, Ruby, and Ethan, that were taken during the day they had spent at the park. The headlines labelled them as his "secret family," speculating

CHAPTER SIXTY TWO

Stephan sits down in his home office and dials his PR team's number "Hey, it's Stephan. We have a situation that needs addressing.”"Okay Stephan, what's going on?”Stephan briefly explains the situation with the blog posts and Ethan's paternity "I need your advice on how to handle this. And how it will affect us all?” The Team Leader listens attentively "I understand. It's crucial to address this head-on. Revealing Ethan's paternity could bring transparency and strengthen public trust. However, it might also attract media scrutiny.” Stephan nods in agreement "That's what I thought. What do you suggest?” The team leader offers a suggestion "I think it's a good idea for you, Ruby, and the rest of the Rodriguez family to hold a press conference together. It'll show a united front and demonstrate your responsibility.” Stephan considers the suggestion "That makes sense. I'll discuss it with Ruby and the family, so just set up everything and send me the details.”Stephan ends the call

Amelia's mother's voice was heard from the garden, her concern was in her voice.Amelia's voice shook with rage with every word she uttered. "Do you not see what they are up to? Stephan is parading his secret family in front of the whole world!"Her mother rushed into the room, her brow furrowed with concern as she took in Amelia's distressed state. "Calm down, Amelia. What are you talking about?" she urged, her voice gentle but firm.Amelia pointed angrily at the television screen, her eyes flashing with indignation. "Look! Stephan is claiming Ethan as his son, and Ruby is there too, like some kind of happy family! "How the hell could he do this to me?!" she exploded, tears streaming down her cheeks, as hurt and betrayal filled her voice.Her mother viewed the screen withou

CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR

Amidst the haze of her grief and trauma, Mr. O'Neil slowly drew back from the warm hold and stared at Amelia with eyes full of love and resolve. "Look darling, I know things are hard, but we will get past this," he said, as if he had made a decision, his voice full of defiance. "I won't rest unless I make sure you are content."Amelia secretly smiled, swallowing her own tears while she felt dad’s unconditional love. "Thank you, Dad," she whispered, her voice shaky with emotion.Mr. O'Neil rubbed her hand while he smiled encouragingly. "Any time, sweetheart. For now, let's go downstairs and have dinner together as a family." He said trying to cheer her up.Amelia and her father were seated side by side while Mrs O'Neil served the dishes that she had prepared earlier, smiling affectionately as she placed a steaming plate in front of Amelia. "Come on dear, eat up. Let's enjoy this delicious dinner." she declared sweetly. Her eyes glowing with kindness.Amelia smiled, a sign of gratitude

CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE

Ruby turned to leave the kitchen “Ru...” Stephan was about to call out but was interrupted by a phone call. He quickly picked it up and saw that it was Amelia calling. Sighing loudly, he answered the call, expecting a tense conversation. “Hey, Amelia” Stephan said softly but she had already begun to yell. Her voice echoed through the phone, full of frustration and rage, directed at Stephan for the press conference, she accused him of not taking her feelings into consideration."Stephan, what have you done ? Amelia's voice was on the brink of tears, pitch high and accusing. "What gives you the guts to conduct that conference without taking me into consideration? You have turned our relationship into a joke!"Stephan cringed at the brutality of her tone as he shook his head slowly and said nothing, awaiting the outcome.“I can't believe you would do this to me, Stephan,” Amelia said with more hurtful words. "You've placed me in such an awkward position. People are going to think I'm

CHAPTER SIXTY SIX

After dinner, Stephan playfully suggested to Amelia that they should get a little tipsy together. Amelia, her curiosity soaring, nodded with a grin. Stephan went and got a bottle of whiskey and two glasses and they both settled on the couch, ready for a good relax session. He poured them both a glass of whiskey and they clinked their glasses before he gulped his.“Hold on,Stephan, take it easy” Amelia advised with obvious worry in her tone. “You’re going to drive home, remember?” Stephan grinned, shaking his head. "Not to worry, I don't plan on leaving tonight," he answered, a touch of resolution in his voice.Amelia's eyes got even larger as he spoke. “You are staying at the penthouse tonight?” she asked with surprise and excitement in her voice.“Yeah, I just want to relax, you know and here is my home away from home” he sighed, a little smile playing on his lips as he looked at Amelia.A smile lit up Amelia’s face when she suddenly knew what it meant. Her eyes glowing, sh

CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN

Ruby became extremely angry as she replayed the phone call she just had. She understand Stephan was avoiding her but to let Amelia take his call when he could have ignored was another ball game entirely. “Why was he with her?” She muttered to herself angrily. “I thought he said they were just friends, yet he is spending private quality time with her. Men are scum.”However much she tried to convince herself that it was wrong to feel this way, she just couldn't help it even though she is aware of his engagement to Amelia.Lost in her thoughts, she didn’t know when the chef came out of the kitchen carry her dinner, he set the table, “Bon appetite” he wished her, hoping she enjoys the meal but Ruby’s appetite was already down the drain.She kept turning the food on her plate without tasting it, the chef who noticed her unusual behaviour approached her, “Is everything okay Miss Ruby? You haven’t tasted your meal, don’t you like it? If you don’t, I can make something else,” The chef asked

CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT

Immediately they got to the mall, Stephan picked a cart and started walking around in confusion. He didn’t know which aisle to find all he needed so he approached a sales representative. “Hello, please where can I find these stuff?” he asked showing the sales rep his list. She smiled politely as she pointed them in the right direction which is the candy aisle. Stephan led the way while Amelia followed closely. This was a new experience for her and it felt strange. When they reached the aisle, Stephan took packs of graham crackers, bags of marshmallows and some packets of chocolates chips. When he had selected everything they were going to need, they headed for the penthouse, with their bags overflowing.When they got to the penthouse, they began to empty their shopping bag, setting all that they bought on the kitchen island. Stephan pulled up his sleeves and took charge, he was following the simple guidelines they found online. They melted the chocolate, toasted the marshmallows and

CHAPTER SIXTY NINE

Sitting at the backseat of the cab in shock and pondering on what just happened, she noticed her phone was ringing so she searched her tote bag for it. When she found it, she stared at the screen in shock“Why is he calling me?” Ruby wondered, her mind racing with questions and uncertainties. With a deep breath, she finally mustered up the courage to answer the call.“Hello?” Ruby replied hesitantly, her tone giving away her astonishment.“Hi Ruby, it’s Robert Moore, are you home yet?” he asked in a familiar voice that made her cringe badly. “I hope I’m not calling at a wrong time.”As Ruby listened to him speak, her fingers automatically curled around her phone. “Not at all,” she replied in a restrained way ignoring his first question.Robert added with a whiff of doubt, “I’m sorry to call you unexpectedly.” “I just wanted to be sure, if you still use the same number?”Ruby looked totally perplexed. “I told you, I still do,” she affirmed, puzzled about where they were going with thei

CHAPTER SEVENTY

Their food finally arrived, Ruby was glad to finally have a source of distraction from all Robert has been saying. She swallowed a mouthful of the food and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. She was very much hungry because she left the house in a hurry and therefore missed breakfast. She found herself having a great time devouring the meal, complimenting both the food, the chef and Robert about the choice of restaurants. Robert smiled, happy with the fact that she was enjoying herself.Once they finished their meal, Robert leaned in to continue their conversation, but Ruby cut him short with a polite excuse. "I’m so sorry, Robert, I wish I can stay longer and chat,” she told a little lie “but it's the middle of a very busy day for me. I have to run," she said, already rising from her seat, ready to leave “Thanks for lunch I really enjoyed it” Before Robert could object or say anything further, Ruby was already out of the door, leaving him alone at the table “Ruby, floorcr
