Chapter 42
Now Enjoy;
Daphne’s expression was priceless, her expression was so shocking. She was speechless. Her face couldn’t be predictable, like, she was so shocked to the bones.
“Anaya!!!!!!” She screamed on top of her voice and tears streamed down her cheeks. Anaya and Amy turn around to look at the entrance.
They looked speechless, words couldn’t come out of their mouth. Daphne used her hand to park and long gown in as she walked into the room slowly as tears kept streaming down her cheeks.
“Tell me it’s a lie. ” Anaya sniffed as she kept shaking her head.
“It’s not a lie, You are not dreaming, It’s me Anaya.
“Oh my god. Daphne Eeeeeeee. ” Anaya screamed on top of her voice. They ran into each other.
“Why did you leave me before I woke up? Why did you run away before I woke up? You left me alone to suffer in this world. I almost died because of you. ” Anaya cried as she poured out her heart.
“I’m sorry yyyy.” Daphne sobs heavily. Laura stood at the entrance to see her daughter crying in daphne arms. She knew she was at fault, A single tear rolled down her cheeks.
They disengaged from the hug, Anaya looked at the entrance and saw Emerson while Daphne looked up to see Amy in tears.
“Babe. ” She mumbled with tears on face.
“Told you several times not to ruin your makeup with water. ” Amy said softly as she wiped her tears.
“Trying to act strong. ” Daphne laughed in between her sobs but they couldn’t hold it anymore. They burst into tears and hugged each other tightly.
“Why did you lie to me that you aren’t coming again? ” Anaya screamed and pulled Emerson from his tie.
“I’m sorry sweetie. ” Emerson faked a sad face.
“I will not forgive you. You lied, you said you will train me but you didn’t. You ruined my mood and my birthday today. ” Anaya yelled as she couldn’t control her tears.
They left everyone emotional, Serenity, Olivia, Mrs Laura and Ellison, Trinity, Lucas, Allison and the two kids (Madison and Ariel)…ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Anaya disengaged from the hug and went into Ariel’s arms. It was a long hug… Ariel was the first person to pull away from the hug before Anaya could think of disengaging.
Amy and Daphne locked hands together as they walked out of the room.
“After shedding enough tears. ” Emerson scoffed, looking away, which made Daphne smile and hug him. That action perhaps left Amy speechless.
“Did they fall in love. ” Amy thought, trying her best to move her eyes away from the romantic moment of the two.
“Mom. ” Anaya called and burst into tears. Laura tried to touch her but she moved away from her a little bit.
“Don’t touch me? ” She rolled her eyes. This time around it was Laura’s turn to cry miserably.
“Please Anaya. I’m sorry. ” She went on her knees as tears streamed down her cheeks.
“Should I forgive her? ” Anaya whispered to Daphne who only saw her lips in movement.
“Huh” she hummed and nodded.
“It’s fine. ” Anaya nodded and put her two hands on her waist.
“Wow! This is the biggest and emotional gift I have ever received, all thanks to the hoodie hero. ” She added
“Yeah. Come to dinner, everyone. ” Mrs Ellison said from the stairs.
“When did she move away from here. ” Allison mumbled, rushing to the stairs.
“Why is she running like that? ” Emerson asked no one in particular.
“Guess she’s hungry. ” Olivia chuckled.
Everyone walked down the stairs and took a seat on each chair around the dining table.
“How and when have you been preparing this ?” Daphne asked, dropping her cutlery. She had her eyes glued to him.
“A month ago. There’s something else I will take you to, mainly it’s everyone I’m taking along. ” He revealed.
“Another place after this one. ” Serenity asked with her eyes widened a bit.
“Yeah!. You got a problem with that. ”
“Not at all. ” She replied, digging back the fork to her food. Olivia and Serenity exchange stares, they both turn to look at Lucas.
“What are these three up to? ” Emerson thought when he noticed their stares.
“The food isn’t tasty like you. ” He uttered.
“It’s fine Emerson. Lucas replied, moving his gaze back to his food.
“Gosh this is just so awkward. ” Allison thought and summoned courage.
“There’s actually something I want to inform everyone about. Actually, there’s something we want to inform everyone. ” Allison uttered as she stood with her hands clapped together.
“Hmmm. ” Mrs Ellison hummed.
“What’s this you are hiding? Emerson asked with a serious expression as he quietly dropped his cutlery.
“Ally bank down. ” Lucas interrupted and stood up.
“I thought you are scared of Emerson that’s–
“And why will he be scared of me? Of all people. ” Emerson asked with a confused expression on his face.
“Allison. Don’t be naughty, just take a seat. Olivia added with a pleading face.
She pouted and shrugged “okay. ” She mumbled, looking annoyed. She was not steps away from Lucas when a sudden dizziness hit her head which affected her eyes.
“Babe. ” She mumbled with her hand on her forehead. Lucas rushed to catch her before she fell.
“Hey.” Lucas panicked so were the rest. What the hell is happening? Mrs Ellison asked no one in particular.
“Get the fucking car ready. ” Emerson screamed as he rushed to carry Allison.
Everyone rushed out of the building including the kids.
“Madison. ” Emerson called.
“Huh-
“Follow the third SUV, it will take you, Anaya and Ariel back to the clan. ” He instructed
“But–
“No, but. He interrupted, “Just listen to me. ” He said calmly.
“Okay brother. ” She mumbled and led the kids to the SUV car.

Mrs Ellison looked tense, same with everyone. Daphne locked her hands with Emerson’s,,,
“She will be fine. ” She assured him.
“I just hope so. ” He mumbled.
Meanwhile, Lucas looked restless, Olivia and Serenity exchange stares with a worried expression on their faces.
Mrs Laura trying her best to keep Mrs Ellison calm. The moment the door opened revealing three doctors and a nurse everyone stood up including Trinity and Daphne.
“In my tablet here it’s recorded that Emerson Marshall is a brother to the lady in ward 909.
“Yes. I’m her brother. Elder brother. ” He stammered.
“Oh! It’s the whole family. It’s state’s here that she’s single but I think you made a mistake during the rush. So I need to talk to her husband right now–
“Husband?? ” Everyone repeated beneath their breath.
“Oh doc. I think you are mistaken, my daughter isn’t in a talkless marriage. ” Mrs Ellison shook her head not wanting to believe what the doctor was saying.
“What do you mean? Emerson asked the doc with a serious expression.
“She’s four weeks gone. ” He bursted. Daphne, Emerson, Mrs Ellison and Laura gasped loudly. Serenity and Olivia also faked a gasp.
“Oh my gosh. Allison is pregnant. ” Mrs Ellison screamed as a single tear rolled down her cheeks.
“Come on mom. She’s not in a relationship. ” Emerson interrupted trying to crack his head.
Meanwhile, Hudson was just on his seat, trying to observe everyone’s expression to the news.
“Guess Lucas is the father of the baby. ” He revealed and stood.
“What do you mean? ” Emerson turned around to look at Hudson and later move his gaze back to Lucas.
“Is it true. ” He asked calmly but also tried to subside his anger.
“Yes. That– His words were interrupted when he found himself stumbled backwards and landed his arse on the ground, on the cold tiers.
