For forty-five minutes, Mr X's car kept moving on the road. Kate felt uneasy, especially as the roads started becoming unfamiliar to her. She could have sworn she had never seen that place before. Especially because, as the car moved, there were lesser and lesser buildings on the roadside.Kate thought that maybe she should ask José where they were headed but stopped herself thinking that a simple question might just worsen her situation."Maybe it's because I have been in prison for a long time." she tried to convince herself that everything was okay but when she looked through the window one more time, her heart almost jumped out of her chest.There were two separate roads and only the car that she and Mr X were in went to the road on the right."I don't understand..."Kate said, confused."Where are your men taking my son to?! Are we not going to the same place?!" Kate panicked when she noticed the other cars following a different road from theirs."We are. Don't worry about it." Mr
Just a minute passed while Mr X was in his car with a doppelganger of Kate before she started to speak of the real Kate."I take it, you're not a fan of your sister?" she crossed her legs and raised a brow at Mr X while questioning him.Mr X gave the doppelganger the side eye, exposing to her, how stupid that question was and how necessary her silence is.The doppelganger wasn't the smartest and couldn't take the hint. And unfortunately for Mr X, he had said everything about Kate and what she did in prison to the talkative doppelganger."Honestly, I find it belittling and insulting that I have to pretend to be her and live her disgusting life. I mean, the girl fucked a guy and got pregnant for him without telling him. She slept with officers just so they could keep their mouths shut about her son and keep her in prison. Now I have to intrude in the life of a married man because she never spoke up while he was single?"Mr X sighed but ignored the doppelganger and looked through the wind
Hearing Kate's words made Tasha burst out into laughter."What's so funny?" Kate raised her eyebrows."Oh, dear..." Tasha wiped off tears from her eyes, "You seriously think I'm that stupid to believe such trash? Vincent tells me everything! And I'm pretty sure I would have known about it if he got you pregnant!""So you think this is a joke?" Kate smirked."I know it is," Tasha replied with certainty."So now that you can't find any family member to crawl back to, you found a baby and decided to use it to destroy my family? Typical Kate always tries to be cunning. I won't fall for it this time." Tasha added."Now leave!" she ordered, pointing at the gate.Kate stepped up to Tasha and scoffed, "Over my dead body.""Then count yourself lucky that I am not a killer," Tasha replied and gave the security guard a meaningful look.The security guard grabbed Kate's arm and pulled her away from Tasha."Hold on," Tasha told the security guard and then went closer to Kate again."I and my husban
"Why did you come here?" Vincent asked Kate on the way to the hospital."What do you mean by asking me such a question? Of course, I'd come here. I mean, I wanted to keep my baby secret but after you killed all my family members, what do you expect from me? I'm your problem now." Kate replied indifferently.Kate put the baby down on the chair and began stretching her arms and back."What the hell are you doing?!" Vincent yelled and then picked up the baby right before the car road over a bump.Vincent signed in relief and then turned to Kate, "Are you insane? You're the mother so why are you acting so carelessly?""I'm not the one who hasn't held the baby since I saw him," Kate replied, rolling her eyes at Vincent.Throughout the rest of the drive, Vincent held the baby in his arms, he couldn't shake off the nagging feeling that the baby might be his biological child.He didn't want it to be so because he loved only Tasha and what he had with Kate back then was nothing short of a mista
Tasha's heart skipped a beat when she heard knocks on her bedroom door and she placed her hand on her chest while trying to return to her regular breathing.She opened her mouth wide and let out a loud yawn before rubbing against her eyes with the back of her palm.Lifting her head came with a painful price to pay. What else should she have expected from sleeping in such a position?"Oh, my God. Had I fallen asleep like this?" she questioned herself just before she heard the knock again."Who is it?" Tasha asked, hardly getting to open her swollen eyes properly."It's me... Vincent..." a voice came from the other side of the door. Hearing the voice of her husband brought back flashes of what had happened just yesterday. Kate arrives with a baby and herself finding out she was pregnant with a baby that did not belong to Vincent.Tasha's mood turned sour again but getting emotional in front of Vincent was the last thing she wanted at this point."Tasha, please let me in," Vincent begge
Three days later...A phone rings and gets ignored for the first annoying five times and an angry Mr X finally picks it up."What is it?!""S... Sir... I didn't mean to inconvenience you or anything but you've got to hear this." the caller replied, trembling.Mr X stayed quiet, waiting for the caller to get on with it."The child you took from your sister sir, I just found out..." the caller swallowed as sweat rolled down his forehead."Found out what?!" Mr X began to grow impatient, "Speak up!" He yelled."Vincent Victor is not the father." the caller answered."What?" Mr X shot up to his feet, "My sister admitted that he got her pregnant so how can it be that is not his baby?!" Mr X yelled through the phone."Well..." the caller hesitated."The child doesn't belong to Kate... Sir..." the caller said, "please forgive...""Shut up you damn imbecile! Shut up! What do you mean it's not hers?!""You got the wrong baby?!" Mr X shouted."Y... Yes... Sir?..." the caller answered, his heart r
Seated in his office, Vincent Victor found his mind wandering because of the current situation in his home.Kate who he had not seen for a long time, suddenly shows up with a baby in her arms.It doesn't make any sense to home but still, there's nothing his mind could associate her return to.The ringing of Vincent's phone shook him back into the real world.Vincent picked up his phone and placed it on his ear, "hello?" he said, unaware of who it was calling him."Hello?" Vincent repeated after a few seconds passed.Soon enough, the phone call pissed Vincent off. Under the assumption that it was a prank call, Vincent ended the call and ignored his phone for the rest of the day.Finally, he decided to go back to the laboratory that was handling the DNA test for him and the baby he was told, belonged to him."Come in." the doctor lifted his eyes to watch the door open and seeing Vincent almost cut off his breath. He knew what he had to do and knowing it was wrong put him in a state of f
The nanny sobbed as she explained that she was cleaning the windows and accidentally dropped a glass."Windows? Which windows? There's a wall right behind you along with shattered glass and you're telling me you were cleaning windows?!" Vincent tried his best to be calm despite having the worst day of his life."I'm sorry sir. It won't happen again." the nanny maintained her gaze on the floor as she spoke nervously.Kate, feeling the need to step in, acted guilty and embarrassed, took a deep breath and apologized to the nanny. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you. I was just stressed out about everything and not much has been going well in my life for a very long time," Kate faked sincerity."I'm sorry Vincent. I... I shattered the glass not her. I didn't mean to scare her and cause this much trouble. Please forgive me." Kate lowered her voice, pretending to be ashamed of her actions.Vincent calmed down and understood Kate's situation. "It's okay, Kate. We all have our stressful
