Thalia's pov"No, no no no — no!" I shook my head frantically as the last word came out a shout.Anna knocked on the door, "Madam, are you alright in there?" She inquired.No, I wasn't. It was obvious to no one that I wasn't okay at all. The pregnancy test read positive four times and yet, I couldn't bring myself to believe it.I pulled my hair aggressively, my blood boiling out of pressure. Oh my goodness. I was pregnant. It was undeniable that I was pregnant. What am I going to do now? How did this even happen?"Madam..." Anna knocked again, pulling me out of my thoughts.A forced sigh escaped my nostrils, "Go away, Anna. I need some time alone." I said,No, I didn't need time to be alone. I needed someone to beat the hell out of me for being stupid. How could I have been so careless? How could I have allowed myself to get pregnant?I placed my hand on my forehead, wanting to slap sense into it. I tried to remember how it happened. Eirik and I were just intimate last night. How coul

Eirik’s povConfusion stuck to my skin like glue. How could I be confused when I brought all these things upon myself? I shouldn't have given Mirelle too much space. I should have listened to my wife when she warned me of it.But old feelings rekindled. It pulled me closer to Mirelle. Deeper than I could ever imagine and that was it. Now, she was pregnant with my child. How do I handle it? There was no other way to handle it aside from removing the baby. I understand that it was a cruel thing to ask a woman to do but my wife was already involved.Thalia mustn't know about Mirelle's pregnancy. I have broken her heart too many times within a short period of time. I can't ruin my marriage with her because of Mirelle. We have a son together and that can't change."Do you have anything to say to me, Eirik?" Thalia asked.A long pause. My insides were in turmoil. Did she have an idea about the pregnancy? The question she asked was too detailed and too coincidental. "No, Thalia. You shoul

Thalia's povIt was no news anyway. Mirelle's pregnancy was no news but the way Grace broke the news like she was reading a headline still made me freeze."Mom, stop this madness!" Eirik fumed, standing from his chair.Grace threw her head towards him, "Madness? You impregnating a woman and refusing to take responsibility is the real madness here!" She slammed her fist on the table.Mirelle sat there, a smile curled on her lips. Clearly, she was enjoying the drama that looked juicy to her. Why would Grace show up the next morning after Mirelle just informed Eirik of her pregnancy yesterday? It was too fast and too coincidental. "Mom, we can talk about this after breakfast." I tried to smoothen the tense atmosphere. Everyone should just finish eating and continue their businesses. I hated how Ianth watched the drama unfold. My son watched how his dad got another woman pregnant.My eyes glistened with tears. He must be happy right? That must have been what he wanted. He had always cal

Thalia's pov "Thalia, you need to be careful." Doctor Rachel frowned, slamming the test results on her desk. "You bled for a night. It is very risky at this early stage of your pregnancy if you don't want anything to happen to your baby."I sighed, lost in thoughts. I didn't know I would bleed. It happened at midnight. No, I didn't sleep. I remained in the same sitting position for the entire night. It must have been the stress."Did you inform your husband about it? Have you discussed it?" She asked.My mind flashed back to the minute I wanted to inform Eirik about our new baby. That was when I saw Mirelle was pregnant too. Besides, everything was ruined. There would be no need."We have decided to keep the baby." I lied through my teeth.I didn't feel any guilt for telling a lie. Eirik has told countless lies already. What difference would it make?"Your antenatal has started. Get the prescribed drugs at the pharmacy section." Rachel said, passing the light paper towards me.I stoo

Thalia's povI stood in front of a particular wide gate, clutching the handle of my suitcase. The house felt very familiar, like I never left.There was no other choice. I had nowhere else to go. Divorcing a cheating man was a good thing until you became homeless. I chuckled at my foolishness.My hands pressed the gate bell and I waited. Two minutes later, the small screen showed an older man's face. I recognized him very well."Is that you?" His voice quivered as he ordered for the gate to be opened.I bowed respectfully, shaking his hands. Of course, he was older than the period I left him. He was one of those that tried to let me stay when I insisted on getting married to Eirik."Come on. Hurry up!" He smiled, practically jogging towards the main entrance of the mansion.I stood in front of the mansion for a few seconds before entering with a sigh. My eyes caught the familiarity of the house – somewhere I can finally and truthfully call a home."Who is –" My mom paused, staring bac
