After what seemed like forever, Sebastian calmed down a little. His eyes were puffy as a result of the tears shed. Vanessa wiped his tears with some tissue paper she got from her nightstand. Then she handed him a glass of water which he refused.Vanessa took her son's hands in hers. "You can tell me everything now." She persuaded."I messed up Mom, I fucked up really bad." He said. Vanessa nodded, encouraging him to continue."I met Jayda five weeks ago, we met in a bar and ended up having a one night stand. She was different. I felt with her things I never felt for anyone; not even Susan who I thought was going to be the mother of my children.""After that night I was cold to her, we had a fight the next morning. Up till today, a day has never passed that I haven't thought about her. Caleb advised me to go after her, apologize and make it up to her but I refused because I convinced myself that she was just like Susan.""Jayda came to see me at the office yesterday. She said she was pr
On his way back to his apartment which was about thirty minutes away from his parents' mansion, all Sebastian could think of was Jayda. He felt more guilty hearing that she wasn't feeling well and wished he had reacted like a mature man when she told him she was pregnant.He wished he could take back all that he said to her. He was willing to accept his mistake and would do anything in order to be in both Jayda's life and his baby's life.He concluded that Lilian was the key to Jayda's heart. She knew everything about him and Jayda and yet she never said anything, at least not directly. Seb heaved a sigh. He felt like a fool when he remembered his last conversation with Lilian. Obviously, there was nobody called Liam. She was only pulling his legs.Even though Lilian and Sebastian were not on good terms, he was willing to make peace with her and plead to her to help him win Jayda and his baby back. That was why he came up with a weird excuse and collected Lilian's number from Amelia, h
Lilian planned on not allowing Jayda go to work but Jayda proved her wrong with how energetic she turned out to be. She woke up early and offered to make breakfast for herself and Lilian.Lily made sure Jay ate everything that was on her plate and she made sure her best friend took her vitamins.They cleaned up, prepared for work and left Jayda's apartment in their cars.Jayda got to her office at exactly 8.30 am. She placed her handbag on the golden brown mahogany desk, then settled in her chair. She took out her diary and went through all of what she had to do for the day. She was about to do some paperwork when she was disturbed by someone knocking on the glass walled door."Come in," Jayda said absentmindedly without looking at the person who knocked."Someone delivered this for you ma'am " Anna smiled as she placed a big bouquet of red roses along with a box of chocolates on Jayda's table.Jayda looked at the items on her table, then she took a look at Anna, her Secretary."Are yo
After having a sumptuous dinner, Jayda and Lilian made their way to the Sofa in the living room where they talked about different things while enjoying their Ice Cream."You won't believe what happened today," Lilian said as she took another scoop of her Ice Cream."What happened?" Jayda asked curiously."Sebastian called me."Jayda sighed. "He also sent me a bouquet of roses and a box of chocolates. The roses came with a note. He said he's sorry and that I should give him a chance to be in my life and my baby's life.""Are you for real?" Lilian asked, totally surprised. Jayda nodded, enjoying the taste of her Ice Cream."So where are the apology gifts?" She asked because she could not recall seeing any roses in the house."I had Maria return them to him along with a letter reminding him that he was to return the documents I sent to him by noon. Also, the restraining order applied to the gifts so he shouldn't send any gifts to my house or office.Jayda noticed Lilian was looking weird
Sebastian plopped down on his bed defeatedly and tossed his phone to the other side. He wished getting Jayda back would be quite easy but who was he kidding? Not after all he had put her through.He was happy he gave her the opportunity to apologize before she ended the call. This was one of the moments that Sebastian wished he had some sort of superpowers. He would very much like to know how she was fairing and most importantly, what was going on in her head.Issac had gotten back to him yesterday night with her home address and phone number. But he was scared to call her last night. He finally found the courage to do so when he woke up this morning.He came to a conclusion that Jayda and his child were worth fighting for so he wasn't giving up anytime soon...............Jayda was all dressed up in her business suit and matching pair of heels, she already had her makeup done and her hair in a low ponytail. She reached for her handbag, then exited her room."I wish, I hope and I pray
Two weeks later.Caleb found himself in Saunders and Co on a Monday morning. He had a meeting with a senior associate of the firm, Mr Tucker, concerning the protection of the new products invented by his company. The meeting went well and Caleb thanked Mr Tucker and other associates who helped out before walking out of the conference room. He thought Jayda was going to be part of the lawyers that would be present in the meeting. He stylishly asked for her and was told she was busy with another case.As soon as Caleb walked out of the glass-walled conference room, he bumped into his best friend's sister, Olivia."Caleb, what are you doing here?" Olivia asked excitedly as she pulled him into a bone-crushing hug.Caleb chuckled, "I came to see Mr Tucker. We had a meeting with some associates. And you, where are you going?" He asked her."Oh, we've been working pretty hard since morning, doing some research for this new case Jayda is working on. I was on my way to get drinks.""This firm h
As soon as Jayda ended the call, Sebastian did a happy dance for a good three minutes. He wanted to go to the rooftop of his office building and shout out loud that he was going to his baby's appointment tomorrow. Before he left the office, Sebastian contacted his Secretary to reschedule all his morning meetings. Jayda and his child matter the most in his life, every other thing can come later. Seb had smiles on his face as he drove to his apartment. He took a shower and ate dinner after which he facetimed Caleb. "Guess what Caleb?" Sebastian said. "You bought a new car, " Caleb replied dryly. It was second to none how Sebastian changes his cars. "Unfortunately, No.""Then what is it?" Caleb asked curiously. "Jayda called me this evening.""Are you for real?"Seb replied with a positive nod. He had smiles all over his face. "Wow.""That's amazing.""I know, I can't stop smiling since then." Seb Justified. "So what did she say?" Caleb asked interested. "Well, she thanked me for
Sebastian and Jayda were ushered to a private table for two. Seb pulled out a chair for Jay before settling down opposite her. A waiter came with the menu, they went through it and both ordered what they wanted.Soon enough, their orders came and they dug in. Sebastian spent the first few minutes admiring Jayda as she ate. He liked the fact that she was herself around him."So how is work?" He tried to start a conversation."Fine. Since I found out about the pregnancy, I've been on my best behaviour; trying not to overwork myself." Sebastian nodded, happy that she was taking their baby and her health into consideration."I had no idea your Sister was interning in Saunders and Co. I knew from Lilian not too long ago""I also came to know about it recently. Olivia adores you. My mom said she talks about you all the time. You're her idol"Jayda gets flattered whenever she hears compliments like that. She was aware that many aspiring lawyers and learned colleagues looked up to her because
