Kelly's POV What She Needs

Pierce's

POV

I took a deep sigh and scratched my cheek when I saw mom in the dining hall, sitting while watching something on her ipad. My forehead creased after I heard a familiar voice from the ipad.

Mom glanced at me and worry filled her expression. "Son, how's Snow?"

"She's fine. What's that, mom?" I asked curiously and walked towards her. I kissed her cheek before I pressed my palms on the table and stood beside her.

"Look at this, son. This is Lexi's interview. She suddenly appeared after went missing and she's telling the media that the issue about Kelly and Klay Carver circulating around the internet is true. She said the child is Klay Carvers." I sucked my breath and sat on the chair beside her. "Don't mind her, mom."

"Pierce!" Mom looked at me and dropped her ipad on the table. "I can't ignore this. I treated her well when you're together and she's going to do this? I can't believe her." ""Mom..."

"No, Pierce! And she's even dragging my granddaughter in this mess. How immature!"

I stared at mom's face. She's worried, I know. "Mom, I know dragging the child in this mess is wrong. I won't tolerate that, but Snow is indeed Klay Carver's kid." She pressed her lips together and stared at me guiltily.

I shook my head and turned her ipad off. "Don't mind those people, mom. They're just too hungry for

issues. And Lexi, I already talked to her."

"You met her? What if Kelly sees you?"

"She did."

She gasped. "Son, you can't make the same mistake as before!"

"Mom, I'm not. I already talked to Kelly and she listened to my explanation this time. She gave me a chance. She wants me to fix my life first before we get back together." "Really?"

A hope flickered in my eyes as I smiled and nodded. "Yes, mom. I felt it. Her heart. She made me feel that she loves me. She fell in love with me, mom. It feels... euphoric. Mom smiled and gently caressed my shoulders.

Kelly is my life and Snow has become my hope. Before, I thought there would be no chance for us

anymore. However, Snow gave me hope. She made me realize that I still have a chance to win this fight without even doing anything.

"She's calling me daddy," I whispered happily as I looked at mom again.

"Son..."

"Hmm?"

She held my hand as she sucked her breath as if she's having a hard time. "What if... Snow is your daughter?" What She Needs
