Nine months too late: After divorce by Baby Charlene

Kage said nothing picking up a file before him. Lana wanted to scream, to hit her head against the wall, God, no! How could

⚫ know about it!!

"Youre divorced" she leaned forward, her voice wavering now. "And we're getting married. How can this happen?"

"She got pregnant before the divorce. I intend to keep her close until she put to bed, which is the reason we're living together for now.

"What are you saying?" Her voice rose a notch. "Are you seriously falling for her manipulations? You really believe she's pregnant for you? How can you be so sure, Kage? Isn't it obvious she's trying to ruin things between us? How can you even trust that whore?"

"Call her that one more time" He snarled

Lana flinched from his reaction. 'She may be a lot of things, but I doubt Syivie would ever play the paternity fraud on me. I'm keeping her close until she puts to bed. And in the meantime, I do hope you can learn to suck it up"

Tears glistened in her eyes. One came rolling down, despite how much she tried to restrain them

She sniffled, wiping the tears from her face.

"This isn't fair, you know! I'm not being treated right"

As she walked out the door, she remembered Sylvie's words to her. You'll finally get to know what I went through being married to him. Only difference is, yours will be for a lifetime. Syivie had a smile on her face as she replied to Westley's text.

Sure. Order the dessert as well. I'll meet you up soon!

Her stomach was rumbling already, just thinking about lunch. She couldn't wait to eat all manner of foods again.

And God, she was sleepy already.

Lancelot walked in, interrupting her peaceful moment. She rolled her eyes and began arranging her bag.

"You might want to go back out. I'm about leaving," she said, not bothering to look at him.

"Really?" He chuckled. Im not sure about that."

Syivie stood up with her bag. He was already in front of her desk.

"Sit down, Sylvie," his tone was icy.

She gave him a ridiculed look. "I just told you I'm going out."
