Obwohl ihr Mann von Natur aus kalt war, glaubte sie, dass er sich sehr um sie kümmerte. Sie war mit ihrer Beziehung zufrieden und schätzte alles, was sie teilten. Einen Tag vor ihrem dritten Hochzeitstag stellte sie fest, dass sie schwanger war und war voller Aufregung und Hoffnung. Sie freute sich darauf, ihrem Mann diese Neuigkeit mitzuteilen, und war überzeugt, dass dies positive Veränderungen in ihrer Familie bewirkten und vielleicht sogar seine konservative Persönlichkeit mildern würde. Das Schicksal hatte jedoch andere Pläne. Bevor sie ihre Schwangerschaft offenbaren konnte, tauchte eine unerwartete Person aus der Vergangenheit ihres Mannes auf – seine „alte Freundin“. Als dieser neue Person in ihr Leben trat, wusste Arielle nicht, dass diese unerwartete Ankunft alles in Frage stellen würde, was sie über ihre Ehe und ihren Mann, und selbst.

Doch als Theresa einen Schwangerschaftsbericht aus ihrer Tasche zog, wurde Alexander wütend und fragte: „Wessen Kind ist das?“ Alexander suchte überall nach dem Vater des Kindes. Er schwor, den Mann, der Theresa schwanger gemacht hatte, umzubringen! Doch zu seiner Überraschung stellte sich heraus, dass er derjenige war...
