Nora stared at the two pairs of pink shoes and felt her heart melt, she took the pair of shoes from him and held them in her hand, up until now, she hadn't thought about what the baby gender will be.

"It's so beautiful." Nora said as she continued to stare at the shoes.

​​

"Thank you." She said as she wiped her tears.

Damien smiled as he looked at his younger sister, he didn't notice it, but Nora had grown up to be a very beautiful girl, he was always looking at her as the young sister that needed his protection but look at her now she is going to be a mother soon.

Though the fact that he doesn't know that man and he won't be able to punish him for what he did not, his sister was still bothering him, but he decided to just focus on taking care of his sister for now.

"This will be my first gift from many gifts, I think I'm going to spoil this child." Damien said and watched as Nora smiled.

"He is so good with words, ah! I think I'm going to pass out." Ina who was listening to the siblings' conversation along with Alison whispered as they moved away from the door.

"He is going to be a wonderful father." Alison said and Ina nodded her head.

She suddenly thought about something and asked Alison.

"Do you think I will be able to have a baby with this disease?"

Alison felt sad hearing Ina question, since she came here, she discovered that this family is suffering from a bit of very bad luck, it makes her feel sad every time she sees Ina in pain and how Damien tries to help her to endure the pain.

"You will, I'm sure that you have adorable childrens." Alison replied as she rubbed Ina arm soothingly.

Ina smiled, imagining having a family with Damien but she was a little afraid about the possibility of not being able to take care of them, she sighed and pushed these thoughts away, right they needed to focus on Nora and her parents' reaction.

...

It was the end of the week and Anna's parents ' plane was going to arrive soon, Damien told Ina and Nora to stay in the apartment and he would go to the airport and take them to the mansion.

He left Nora in a nervous state as she is very scared of what her parents will say.

...

At the Ray mansion.

"Where is Nora?" Eleanor asked, noticing that Nora didn't come with Damien.

"She is with Ina in the apartment, she will come back tomorrow." Damien replied.

"There is something important I need to talk to you about." He added as he looked at his parents with a serious look.

"Speak son, you made us worried." His father said.

Damien waited for a few seconds before he told his parents everything about Nora and the guy she met and of course, her being pregnant.

"What are you seeing? How did this happen?" Andrew said in an angry tone.

He couldn't believe what he just heard, his daughter is pregnant with a man child who ran away.

"It happened when I was in London." Damien replied.

"Before you say anything else, remember that you have noticed the change in her and you never bothered to follow her and find out where she went, so it's not entirely her fault." He added making his parents glare at him.

"Are you blaming us for what happened?" Eleanor asked her feeling offended by what her son said.

How could that have happened?

Their daughter is pregnant with a bastard child from a stranger man, Eleanor felt as if her world collapsed.

"This can't be happening." Eleanor mumbled as she sat down on the couch and started to cry.

Andrew too felt as he failed to protect his daughter, he is a bad father letting this happen, she was right Infront of their eyes going out every day but they never cared to notice that something is off with her.

"How is she?" Andrew asked Damien.

"She is trying to be fine." Damien replied as he sighed.

He knew that his parents were going to act like this just to convince him that they wanted to tell her.

"I won't allow you to see her until you calm down." Damien added in a firm tone.

Eleanor, who had enough with her son, spoke.

"You don't get to decide that, we decide that, it looks like you forgot who you are talking with right now boy, get your mind straight and speak properly to us."

"I will call the doctor and take her to the hospital to abort that bastard child." Eleanor said shocking both her husband and son.

Damien was angry when he heard what his mother said.

"Are you that cold-hearted to kill your daughter's unborn child? Nora wants to keep the baby and I won't let lay a hand on her." Damien said before he left the mansion, he heard his mother voice shouting at him but he didn't care.

...

Back at Damien's apartment, Nora was walking back and forth and looking at the time nervously and checking the phone every now and then, she was very anxious, Damien still hadn't come back yet so it means that things didn't go well with their parents.

"Will you calm down for a bit and sit down, Nora, it's not good for you to stand up for a long time." Ina said as she pulled her towards the sofa and sat her down.

Just then, they heard the door being unlocked, Damien entered the apartment and saw Nora and Ina waiting for him.

Ina noticed that Damien was angry and immediately figured out that things didn't go well.

"What happened? you look angry." Nora was the first one to speak.

Damien smiled at her and patted her head.

"Don't worry, everything went well, they need time to comprehend everything." Damien replied and was about to walk to his room but he stopped when he heard Nora's words.

"Stop treating me like a child, Damien, I know that you fought with them and they wanted to come here but you stopped them." Nora said.

Damien turned around to look at her.

"That is right, you are not a child, Nora, and the baby that growing inside of you is a prove, I'm not judging you but you should not ask when you know the answer, so stop being a coward and stand up to them, because if you didn't do that now then you won't be able to be responsible to have that child." Damien said and left going to his room, he knew that he was being too harsh on her because the situation was needed too.

Ina who was sitting beside Nora felt surprised, it was the first time she saw Damien angry like this.

Nora was shocked, Damien had never spoken to her like this, she stood up and walked to her room too, it was a long night and she nodded to rest.

...

Inside Damien and Ina room.

Ina entered the room and found Damien changing his clothes.

"Why did I speak to her like this? The poor girl was scared the whole day, go and apologize to her now." Ina demanded with an angry voice.

Damien didn't reply and continued to change his clothes and then walked towards the bed and got under the blanket.

"I won't apologize, Nora knows too well that I was right with everything I said." He finally replied, making Ina angrier.

Ina picked up the pillow and threw it on him but Damien caught it effortlessly.

"I can't believe you, what if something happened to the baby, aren't you going to blame yourself?" Ina asked trying to make him get worried about Nora but instead, he laid down and closed his eyes.

"She is not that weak and nothing will happen to the baby." Damien said as he pulled her towards him suddenly and made her lay down before he covered her with the blanket.

"Sleep." Damien said not giving her the space to say anything else.

Ina sighed and closed her eyes.

...

Inside Nora room.

Nora was laying down on the bed thinking about what her brother said, he was right, she always followed her parents' words blindly, if she didn't stand up to them now they might force her to abort the baby.

She touched her lower abdomen and rubbed it gently, she won't let anyone take her baby from her but in order to do that she has to confront them.

Nora closed her eyes praying that she can be strong enough to protect her baby.

...

Back at the Ray mansion, Nora parents had a big fight and Andrew left the house after Eleanor kicked him out of the mansion, the servants who watched their master's fight had to stop Eleanor who started to destroy the mansion, she suddenly collapsed and they had to call the doctor, they tried to call Damien and Andrew but both had their phones turned off.
