Mason glanced at her, standing up as he left his final word.
"Talk some sense into her. I am absolutely not letting her return to Capital City."
"Oh."
Ivy offered a soft reply.
She couldn't understand why this Mr. Miller was so determined to fight Alaric Foster over Stella.
Leo Archer had previously told her that Stella was the child of a man named Sebastian Valance and Sylvia Shaw.
Sebastian had died taking a knife for Alaric, and in the aftermath, Alaric had taken Stella in.
So why was Mason trying to snatch Stella's custody?
Did he have feelings for Sylvia and was extending his affection to her child?
Ivy couldn't quite wrap her head around it.
Just then, Stella tugged at her hand, looking gloomy.
"Mommy, I don't want to stay here. I want to go home."
Ivy pulled herself out of her thoughts and replied patiently.
"We're just staying for a little vacation. Besides, didn't Daddy say he would come pick you up in a few days?"
Stella looked up at her and asked.
"When Daddy comes, can you two make up? I really hate seeing you and Daddy fight. I want you to be in love like before."
"Plus, you promised me you were going to give me a baby brother."
Ivy was momentarily speechless.
At the mention of a little brother, her hand unconsciously drifted to her stomach.
She really was carrying a child right now.
She just didn't know if it would be a boy or a girl.
It was strange, really.
How was it that she hadn't experienced a single ounce of morning sickness since getting pregnant?
It felt as though she wasn't pregnant at all.
The only thing plaguing her was her mind constantly spiraling into wild thoughts.
She always felt deeply insecure, terrified of being pushed away or abandoned.
It seemed the only way she could find any peace of mind was by having a steady job, earning her own money, and building her own nest egg.
At The Starlight Estate.
