Valerie's eyes narrowed immediately. “What?”With that, Ethan gulped hard. He immediately regretted confessing to Valerie. That was definitely the wrong time for him to tell her that. “I… You…”“What are you talking about, Sir? I don't understand you.” Valerie snapped at him.“Are you dumb, or are you just playing dumb? Do you think I will like someone like you? Of course, I only like you because you are my daughter's favorite.” He quickly covered up.With a mixture of disappointment and relief, Valerie nodded her head. “Why are you here, President?” Ethan scoffed. “Are you disappointed that I just interrupted your special moment with your dear Nicole?” “I don't get you, sir. Nicole and I are just good friends. We are not a thing, at least not yet.” Valerie sat on the chair.“What? Not yet? You really intend to date him, right?” Ethan sounded extremely jealous.Valerie sniffed. “I'm finding it hard to wrap my head around why you are so concerned about my relationship with Nicole? I

Susan couldn't stop smiling. Excitement was an understatement of how she felt. She kept on glancing at her cell phone on the table. Each time it beeped, she'd rush off to pick it up. Likewise, she was still staring at the phone when Andy walked out of the kitchen with a pack of chips that he munched noisily. “Suzy, would you like to see a movie with me on Saturday? I had two tickets, but my crush Katy turned me down. I just can't let my ticket go to waste.” Andrew asked and sat on the couch, but Susan kept silent. Andrew turned his gaze to her with twisted eyebrows. “Susan! Susan!!” “Yes… Yes… What is it?” She flinched, scratching her head. “Susan, what's on your mind? I've been talking for some minutes now, but you've not been listening. Why the heck are you smiling?” He asked curiously. “Not… Nothing!” She stammered. Andrew tuts loudly, shaking his head in disbelief. “Of course, there is something. Why do you look so happy? Did you win the lottery?” Andrew asked. Then, he not

“Are you sure of what you're saying?” Ethan asked with his eyes narrowed. Shock was an understatement of how he felt.The man nodded and handed some files to him. “I'm good at my job, Sir. Actually, I found out that she was thrown out by her father's wife after she had the child.”President Ethan sat heavily on the chair. He couldn't even say another word. What a small world! Who would have thought that his daughter's beloved nanny was actually her mother.“Thank you! I'll have the rest of the money transferred to your account as soon as possible.” He said as the man walked away.For a reason he couldn't figure out, he felt so elated to know that Valerie was the surrogate mother who had his child. He was going to tell Audrey and Valerie the truth once he got home.…“What do you intend to do, Nicole? Are you going to continue sulking?” Gabby snorted loudly.Nicole rolled his eyes. “What will you have me do? You don't expect me to force her into doing something that she doesn't want to

“How dare you, Justin? Why are you finding it difficult to understand the fact that I am your wife? You are married to me legally, don't you get it?” Patricia broke into tears as she threw the parcel at him.Actually, she had just gotten the parcel from the delivery man. It was the parcel her husband had sent to her stepsister.“She… She returned it, huh? Didn't she like the color? Does that mean that her leg got bigger, and it doesn't fit her?” Justin sprang up from the couch with his eyes widened.Patricia sniffed hard in heartbreak. “Excuse you?”“Why did she return it? Did you ask the delivery man?” He anxiously inquired.“Damn you, Justin! Damn you! I'm your wife, for goodness's sake. You just cheated on me by sending gifts to your ex-girlfriend who happens to be my stepsister, and you have the guts to ask me that?” Patricia cried out.Justin bowed his head. “I… I only sent a gift to her. Not like I've seen her for god-knows-how-long.” “Are you supposed to send a gift to your ex

“Your daughter?” Lisa's mother mocked.Valerie smirked with an affirmative nod. “You heard me. She's my daughter, and you have no right to bully her.”“How is that possible? The Audrey I know doesn't have a mother, you're an imposter. Or probably she hired her to pose as her mother.” Lisa scoffed.With that, Audrey shook her head with a calm smile. “Are you so blind that you can't see it? Is there anyone who doesn't have a mother?”Lisa glared at her, and turned swiftly to her mother. “Mommy, don't believe them. Throw them out of here. Audrey can get anything she wants, but there's no way I'm letting her and her imposter of a mother ruin the party.”“Isn't that what we call partiality? Everyone was told to come to this party with their mother, and just like every one of you, Audrey came with her mother, and you want to throw her out? What makes you so sure that I'm not her mother?” Valerie snapped.“Young woman, we all know that she doesn't have a mother.” Lisa's mother snapped.Tears
