I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "I've been so tired, I really haven’t thought about it. So, what are you thinking?"He hesitated for a moment before speaking. "Okay, I just think we should get married. Soon."I raised an eyebrow. "I know that.""But given your condition, I don’t want to stress you out with everything else," he said, carefully watching me."Yes, I know. That’s why I’m saying let’s forget about having a big party and a whole thing," I explained. "I want this baby to be born while we’re already legally married. So, let’s just get married, now. Today, tomorrow—let's just do it. We don’t have to have a party, we don’t have to invite anyone except our witnesses, of course. But come on, let’s just get married."Emerson’s lips parted slightly like he wasn’t expecting me to say that. "But… what about the wedding you wanted? I know. You were excited about our wedding. You had already planned everything."His gaze fixed on me, searching for my reaction."I know," I a

“I… I don’t feel so good,” Trey mumbled again, rubbing his stomach.Emerson, who had been watching the scene, raised an eyebrow. “Maybe you shouldn’t have come to the party if you weren’t feeling well, Trey.”Before he could finish his sentence— Trey gagged. And then, it happened. Right there at the table.Trey vomited.People shot up from their seats, stumbling away. The laughter and celebration turned into gasps of shock.I stared, my pudding forgotten in my hands.Trey’s face was pale. He looked absolutely miserable.“I… I really don’t feel so good,” he groaned, sweating profusely.Tina rushed to his side. “Oh my God.” She placed a hand on his forehead and gasped. “You’re burning up!”Panic flickered in her eyes as she turned to the group. “Should we call an ambulance? We should rush him to the hospital!”She was already on the verge of freaking out.I suddenly felt strange. Like I was floating on a cloud.Voices blurred around me. My vision swayed.It wasn’t until I heard Emerson’

EmmersonMina was in and out of it, but by the next morning, luckily, she woke up. She was totally disoriented, her face scrunched up in pain, but the moment I saw her eyes open, relief crashed over me I immediately ran to the doctor, who came in and explained everything to her slowly. I watched her carefully, knowing exactly when her mind caught up with what they were saying. The moment they mentioned the baby, her entire body tensed in fear.She freaked out. Her eyes welled up, panic overtaking her pain.But the doctors reassured her. They told her that she and the baby were fine, but she would have to stay at the hospital for further monitoring. They needed to make sure the poison hadn’t caused any long-term effects on her or our unborn child.Mina broke down, tears streaming down her face.I hated seeing her cry. I leaned in, took her trembling hand in mine, and whispered, “You have to be strong, baby. You’re body

Emerson sighs. I can see that he doesn't want to take me to see Rose, but he relents as he tells the driver to take us to the police station.We reach there, and Emerson goes through all the procedures, talking to the police and everything until we are given a chance to talk to her. I sit there waiting for them to take her to a room so I can see her, but after a while, the police officer—the detective working on the case—comes in and says that Rose doesn’t want to see me."Well, I want to see her," I tell him. "I want this."The detective exhales. "We’re already going out of our way. You aren’t even allowed to see her. We’re breaking protocol letting you see her, so if she doesn’t want to see you, we can’t force her."I look towards Emerson, who is standing beside me. "I want to talk to Rose," I tell him again, my voice firm.He sighs, then turns to the detective. "Detective, can we talk for a minute outside, please?"The detective looks at me, then at Emerson, before nodding and step

"Yes, Mina. Yes, yes, yes," Rose hisses, leaning forward. "You know that Madeline hates you. She hates you more than anybody else in the world. Her hatred for you burns—it’s an inferno. Nothing can ever tame it. She hates you like I have never seen before. That’s how much she hates you."I clench my fists. "Now you’re trying to destroy my home, my family. After trying to kill me, now you’re going to try to destroy my home?" My voice trembles, my mind racing. "Madeline has been there for years. She has never done this. You just want to get in my head and alienate me from people who care. Why? Just because I’m not with Eric anymore? Because I’m dating Emerson now? That’s why she suddenly wants to kill me?" I shake my head. "I’m pregnant. I’m carrying Emerson’s baby. If she wanted to kill me, she had all the chances to. Why would she want to kill me now?"Rose scoffs. "Oh, I see. I must be lying to you, right? That’s what you think? After all, I want nothing good for you. All I want is
