Fall For My Ex's Mafia Father novel Chapter 298

There are two lines on the pregnancy test.

A quick glance at the little key to the side of the screen confirms what I already know.

Pregnant.

I’m pregnant.

I feel everything drain from me in this moment – like all color, all life, all breath and joy floods from me as I stare at the little stick in my hands.

“Shit,” I hear Jerome say, watching my response.

“Fuuuuuuck,” Daniel hisses, turning away for a split second, his shoulders tense. I raise my eyes to watch him, to look between him and Jerome, desperate for…

For any solution.

For anything at all, now that my world has turned upside down.

Jerome’s eyes are on me. “It’s okay, Fay,” he says, coming forward to me slowly with his hands out, like he’s approaching a startled horse. And as I see the sympathy and the worry in his face, I feel myself start to tremble, feel my eyes start to fill with tears as my hands clutch around the test.

I gasp in a sudden breath, all of my emotions and thoughts and panic snapping back into place as my mind starts to whirl, frantic for a plan, for a solution –

“Oh my god,” I murmur, leaning back against the sink and staring down again at the test. “What are we going to d-“

But I don’t get a chance to finish my sentence.

Which Daniel didn’t lock behind him.

And which now, quite slowly, is pressing open.

“Shit shit shit,” Jerome starts to say, his whole body going rigid.
