“Who is responsible for your pregnancy, Laura?” Jerry Phillips shouted for the third time in a minute. His face was red with anger, and his veins were protruding from his neck as he looked at his second daughter with all the hate and disappointment he was feeling. “I don’t know, dad; I don’t know,” Laura replied again and again, her eyes filled with tears as she begged her father. “Shut your mouth, Laura, and quit telling us all the lies; we all know you never wanted to be betrothed to Jared,” Anna Phillips, Laura’s stepmother, said, feigning displeasure for her stepdaughter's predicament. “I am telling the truth; I swear it; please, someone should believe me,” Laura pleaded again. “Your father offers you a better life, and all you can do is throw it away,” Anna said again, adding more fuel to the fire and making Jerry angry at his mistake of a daughter. “Do one thing, Laura, just one thing, so that you don’t end up a shame to this family and you can’t do it,” Jerry said as his an

Laura opened her eyes to see two identical faces staring at her. This does not look like the hospital, she thought.“Mom, are you alright? Who were you talking to in the dream?” Lisa asked, whispering as she moved closer to observe her mother’s face.Laura’s eyes snapped open as she realized where she was—in the airplane on her way back to New York.“Mom, your eyes are red,” Liam said as he also observed his mother’s face.They had boarded on a first-class ticket, so they had the whole section to themselves. Laura didn’t have to worry about them disturbing the other passengers.“I’m okay, baby girl." Laura said to Lisa, and she turned to Liam and said, “It’s because I was sleeping.”“Liam, are my eyes red too?” Lisa turned to her brother so he could observe her eyes too.Liam bent towards Lisa, peering into her eyes to observe. “No, they are too tiny to be red, I guess,” Liam said.“Is that true, mom?” Lisa asked her mother, who was smiling at them, glad that she had distracted them f

Lisa’s eyes widened in surprise. “That’s a cool name, Liam,” she said in a small voice, careful not to alert her mom to their little discussion.“Lisa, Liam, quit talking and let’s go,” Laura said to them as she recovered herself.“Audrey, please make sure the bell boy gets all our luggage,” Laura said to Audrey, giving her a warm smile.“Oh, no, not that smile,” Audrey muttered as she watched Laura head towards the entrance. She turned towards the bellboy, who had come to get the luggage; she missed the drama that was unfolding at the entrance.Jason saw them walking towards him—the annoying lady from the airport—and this time there were two kids latching on her arm."I see you followed me all the way here," Jason said, stopping in front of Laura.Laura stared at him blankly for a few seconds. Lisa looked at Liam and whispered, "Oh no, Mummy is in the mood."Liam placed his left hand on his face and shook his head in disappointment.Instantly, Laura's face spread with a sweet smile,

Laura paused and turned back toward the living room to see Audrey holding something out to her."Your phone—you forgot it on the couch," Audrey said."Oh, thank you," Laura replied, closing the door behind her as she stepped back into the living room.In the hallway, Jason and Tim were heading to the elevator when they saw the door to the next suite close as soon as they got to it. Jason caught a glimpse of a woman just before the door closed."Jason, do you want me to knock and ask about the noise earlier?" Tim asked."No, the hotel staff should take care of that. Get someone to send whoever is in there the guidelines for the suite," Jason replied in a haughty voice."Okay, I'll do that. Gift is already at the restaurant," Tim replied.Jason's personal bodyguard, Charlie, pushed the button to open the elevator.As they walked in, Jason said, "While I speak with grace, get a non-disclosure agreement drafted," to Tim.Laura stepped out of the suite and realized the elevator door was cl

A security guard, a cleaner, and Audrey were standing around them."I'm sorry, Aunt Audrey," Lisa pleaded, her eyes filled with tears.Laura was amazed. Standing in the midst of the group were Lisa and Liam, with a scatted cake at their center."What's going on here?" Laura asked as soon as she walked up to them."Mom!" The twins cried out and rushed over to her."Laura, it is just a small misunderstanding. Lisa and Liam insisted on carrying the cake, and the cake fell off while they were struggling for it." Audrey replied.Laura raised her brows in question at the twins, who were looking up at her with round eyes of pity."No, don't try that with me," Laura told them as she looked at their pitiful faces."What did I tell you guys?" Laura asked them sternly."We should behave ourselves." Liam and Lisa replied."It was an honest mistake, ma'am; we'll just get this cleaned up, and all is fine," the security guard told Laura."Thank you," Laura replied to the guard and turned to the twin
