Karen picked up the phone quickly, the clickety-clack of her keyboard humming in the background.
"What’s up?" She paused her typing.
"Just now..."
"Oh, right. Your ex dropped by," Karen said nonchalantly, her eyes glued to the computer screen, "Said something about replacing me. What, she reach out to you?"
"Karen, don't listen to her crap."
Jeffrey's tone was fierce enough to chew nails, which only made Karen chuckle.
"Jeez, Mr. Turner, watch your language, will ya? Chill out, I'm not mad. Go finish up your work and come pick me up later, I'm in the mood for some BBQ tonight."
"Deal. I'll swing by after work."
Hanging up, Jeffrey felt a weight lift off his shoulders.
But he knew that if Paige kept this up, the truth would come out sooner rather than later.
He had to deal with this mess, and fast.
Jeffrey even thought, if only Karen were pregnant right now, maybe for the baby's sake, she might cut him some more slack?
...
Paige's call came soon after.
Jeffrey's villa was just a stone's throw from the Lopez Corporation.
He hurried downstairs, donning a face mask to avoid any paparazzi.

I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
