Chapter 0484

- Cleo ~

Josie keeps trying to call me and for the first time since forever, I'm not answering.

I need time to think, time to put a plan in place.

Jaxon knows, my attempts to persuade him that the baby is human may have worked on my parents, but he could sense the child was related to him.

Which means...I haven't got a lot of time. His out-of-the-blue arrival yesterday means I need to speed things up.

I haven't got the luxury of time like I thought I would. I wanted time to adjust, time to let my body get used to be pregnant.

But now I need to act...before I am truly ready.

Time to think how I can stop Jace finding out...that's if Jaxon hasn't already said something.

Hence, why I can't bring myself to answer Josie's call...what if she also knows.

She doesn't, he wouldn't have done that...I made it very clear I would leave.

As my phone starts ringing again, I cast my eye down...surprised to find that it is no longer Josie but Maya calling.
