Stephanie watched as Jane left her house, tears streaming down her face. She turned to Mrs Allison, who was still fuming from their earlier encounter and said, "I'm sorry for that, Mum. Jane is going through a lot, and I don't want her to feel like she's alone."

Mrs Allison looked at Stephanie, her expression softening, and nodded. "I understand, Stephanie. I'm sorry for how I acted towards her. I just can't stand the sight of her after the way she treated me."

Stephanie nodded in understanding, then sighed. "Mum, I have to be honest with you. I don't want to have anything to do with my father."

Mrs Allison's eyes widened in surprise. "Why not, Stephanie? I thought you two have reconciled."

Stephanie shook her head. "We had, but he did something that surprised me recently. He's been a huge disappointment lately. He stole our cars and denied it. If not for the fact that he confessed to you, we wouldn't have known that he was behind the theft.

"Hmmm..." Mrs Allison reacted.

    "What? Why would she do that?" Rose asked, looking shocked. She remembered Lena, because of their first meeting, and the fact that Taylor usually mentioned her name in his conversations sometimes."She wants Taylor for herself. Are you aware she was his ex?"

Michael reiterated.Rose's eyes widened in disbelief. "I still can't believe this.

He said he wants to do the right thing for her and the baby," Mrs Allison replied."But mom, Jane is so much younger than him. What about the age difference?" Stephanie asked."I know, darling. But your father seems to be very serious about this. He doesn't want to raise a child out of wedlock; that's why he wants to marry Jane," Mrs Allison explained.Stephanie was still unconvinced. She felt that the pregnancy was not enough reason for her father to marry Jane. She knew that her father was not a good man, but she couldn't help feeling that he was making a mistake."Mom, I don't think this is a good idea. I mean, what if it doesn't work out?
