484-The Lie!
'Oh wow! A little Lazio is coming." Theo jumped up and down, making noises, while the others secretly congratulated Valerie, who didn’t look thrilled anymore.
'Theo!" I urged him not to joke about this situation, but he didn't listen.
'Why is everybody sad? It's a piece of good news," Theo clapped his hands and rubbed them excitedly. "I'll call my man and ask him to prepare for a luxurious celebration. My friend is having a baby, after all," he added, watching Lazio steal eyes from us.
*1’11 go home now," Valerie understood her mate wasn't happy with her happiness.
'Wait! You cannot go at this time. It’s getting dark, and since everybody's going end up— why don't you stay for the night?" Theo no longer looked like he was joking. He looked annoyed.
'Thank you!” Valerie whispered, walking behind Kellice, who led her to the guestroom.
'This should be a prime example of why it’s better that Enya is not planning to stay with you,' Theo turned to Lazio once Valerie was gone to have a talk with him.
I'm not in mood fo—," Lazio tried snubbing Theo but got a harsh grunt from him.
'You are the one who is not in a mood? She is the one who is pregnant and has found out that her mate scammed her, and you are not in the mood?" Theo yelled at him, glaring him in the eye, while others stayed silent.
'Maybe you wouldn't show any concern if you knew I cheated on Enya with her." Lazio thought repeating it would change anything.
'You led her on. She didn't even know Enya. For her, Enya was someone to who her mate was married to. She didn't owe her any loyalty, but you did. She was supposed to be decent, but you were supposed to be loyal to Enya." Theo came face-to-face with Lazio and explained things to him.
I was honestly thanking God that I was over Lazio. I cannot believe I once loved this man.
It’s a shame, Lazio. Not only did you ruin what we had, but now you are ruining what you can have with Valerie: a happy family," I said as I disagreed with his ways.
But I love you," he requested, approaching me.
It’s not like I am ever accepting you back into my life. Don't lose her over nothing," I murmured, hoping he would understand and take things much more seriously now.
Maynard!" Instead of responding to us, Lazio turned to question Maynard, who was secretly looking my way after I told Lazio there was no way I was getting back with him.
