Timothy’s heart raced as he sat in the sterile waiting room of the paternity testing center, flanked by Andy on one side and Stella on the other. He could hardly believe that it had come to this–having a paternity test to determine if he was the father of Stella’s child. The tension in the room was suffocating, and the air was thick

with tension.

Stella leaned closer to him, her voice low and soothing, as she tried to reassure him. “Timothy, you have to believe me. The baby is yours. There’s no doubt about it.”

Timothy turned to look at her, his eyes narrowing. “Stella,” he said, his voice stern, “you’ve been dishonest from the beginning. You had an affair with my brother, for God’s sake!”

Stella’s gaze didn’t waver, and she gripped his wrist with an unsettling amount of strength. “I made a mistake, Timothy, but I swear to you that the baby is yours. I love you, and I wouldn’t lie about something like this.”

Andy, who had been silent until now, cleared his throat and took her hand. He leaned forward, his voice rising with intensity. “Timothy, let’s be honest here. You never even cared for Stella. You were just using her to get back

at me.”

Timothy shot Andy a furious glare. “What the hell are you on, Andy? You should have known better than anyone that I don’t want to be with her. If you wanted her, you should’ve taken her, regardless of what Dad said.”

Stella interjected, her voice steady and confident. “There’s nothing between me and Andy, Timothy. He’s just trying to mess with your head. Seems like that little media stunt of his wasn’t satisfying enough.”

Andy scoffed, his face contorted with rage. “Is that what you said last night, Stella? When you came running to me after our fight?”

The accusation hung heavily in the air, and Timothy’s heart sank: He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. Stella had always claimed that ther

was nothing between her and his brother, but the truth seemed to be uncovering itself further and further.

Timothy turned to Stella, his anger and disappointment boiling over. “Is that true, Stella? Did you go to Andy last night?”
