La walked alongside Nn as they both left for home. On their way to the elevator, he suddenly asked a shocking question.


    “Do you take birth control pills?” La froze in the spot as her heart stopped working.


    What the hell was he sprouting out of his mouth?


    “Birth control what?” She stammered in confusion.


    “Pills..” hepleted as they stepped into the elevator.


    “No, no, I don’t take them, why are you asking?” she grilled curiously.


    “So you can start taking them,” he replied curtly.


    He had a lot of things to settle and being a father was not one of them, at least not now.


    “I…I..” La’s voice trailed as she waspletely out of words. If she was hearing right, this was Nn telling her to start taking birth control pills, for what?


    So she wouldn’t get pregnant? But she already was!


    “You don’t want to be a father?” She drew out word by word as he abruptly turned to face her.


    “No..” he responded. “And don’t even think of getting pregnant..” he warned as La breathed hitched. She was just nning a while ago to tell him about the baby but here he was warning her not to get pregnant.


    Who in the world doesn’t want a child?


    What the freaking hell was going on in that head of his? She asked herself in horror. Now she was doomed.


    “What if I’m already pregnant?” She questioned wanting to hear an answer from him.


    “Are you pregnant?” He asked, fixing his eyes on hers.


    “No!” La bluntly denied. What was she even thinking?


    “Good, it should remain that way for now, hmm”


    “What if it just happened, what would you do about it?” She asked and when she sensed him staring at her suspiciously she quickly changed her tone.


    “I’m just saying, you know idents do happen sometimes, it takes us unaware..” she uttered, chuckling sheepishly.


    “So what would you do if that happened?” She asked, waiting anxiously for his reply.


    Nn was quiet for a long time as he thought hard on the right answer to give, what would really be his reaction if she ended up being pregnant?


    Speaking of pregnancy, there was something suspicious about her recently that he just couldn’t ce his hands on.


    “I’ll…” he was about to give his reply when the elevator door opened wide and the next thing they heard was his name.


    “Nn!!” Ca eximed in surprise, she had been waiting for him by the elevator door.


    “La..” her face suddenly turned sour the moment she saw La beside Nn. What was she doing there?


    “Why did you say no one coulde in, these men literally embarrassed me and stopped me from going in..” she began toin.


    “You should have stayed put when they asked you to..” he said calmly as he stepped out with La.


    “Where’s Xander?” Nn asked.


    “He’s over there” she pointed at a direction and Nn headed towards the direction.


    La was about to leave also when Ca suddenly dragged her back.


    “What were you doing in there with Nn?” She asked venomously, tightening her grip on La.


    “What?” La’s brows furrowed. “You’re hurting me Ca, let go..” she whimpered.


    “Oh..” Ca muttered as she slowly let go off La.


    “What were you doing inside with Nn?” She asked again with a softer tone. She held back her anger for La and tried to be nice.


    “Ask him yourself!” La uttered as she walked away. She wondered what sort of a stupid question was that? Ca seemed like she wanted to know about everything going on in her life with Nn.


    “F*ck” Ca cursed, stomping her feet to where La, Xander and Nn were.


    “What happened again?” She asked insistently. She wanted to know why La was alone with Nn.


    “How is it any of your business Ca?” Nn asked, turning to face her.


    “It’s just that I’m very curious to know, I’ve been waiting for hours you know. I should know what happened..” she stated.


    “Stop crossing your limits Ca” Nn warned. She still hadn’t given him a good exnation for destroying his reports. They’d definitely get to that issue.


    “I…” she began but was cut short by Xander.


    “Here’s your car key Nn..” he handed over the key to Nn.


    “Umm Nn..” Ca held his arm to stop him from leaving.


    “Do you need anything?”


    “Yes. Can I sleep over at your ce?” She requested as Xander and La instantly fixed their eyes on her.


    What sort of a request was that?


    “You have an apartment..” Nn reminded her.


    “Yes I do, but my car broke down and I need a ce to crash for the night. I promise you it’s just tonight..” she pleaded with Nn who hesitantly agreed.


    “Thanks so much Nn..” She hugged him happily.


    “And you too La. Please don’t feel ufortable with me. It’s just tonight ” she forced out a smile.


    “It’s nothing..” La said softly.


    “Okay bye..” she waved, running after Nn who was already going to his car.


    “Aren’t you going to follow Nn?” Xander asked, seeing that La was not following Nn.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    “No..” La replied as Xander walked her outside.


    “Why?” He queried.


    “Well..” she began taking a deep breath. Since Xander already knew her secret there was nothing more to hide.


    “Wee to work separately and live separately..” she replied, forcing out a face smile.


    “But it’ste. How can Nn let you go home all by yourself and in your condition” he protested, that was an irrational thing to do.


    “Don’t worry I’m fine, I’ll use a taxi..”


    “Nne on let’s go it’ste!” Ca called out, she was seated at the front seat of Nn’s car. While Nn just stood at the door staring in a particr direction.


    He was watching La, she was obviously sticking to the rule of going to work and returning separately. It was alreadyte and it felt ridiculous to leave her all by herself.


    “La..” he called for her as La tilted her head towards his direction.


    “Do you need anything?” She inquired about it.


    “Get into the car”
