Excerpt from the book:

“You want to say something?” His deep voice was making it more difficult for me.
“Yes,” I managed but only find him continue eating.
“I am…I am pregnant.” This got his attention finally. I have imagined thousands of reactions he could offer me. But this one didn’t surprise me too. His solemn attitude was scaring me without any failure.
“Ask David to make an appointment for you.” He said and my shoulders finally rest.
“…you are not keeping it.”
"Matt?" I looked at David, our driver with utter embarrassment.
“Why?” I couldn’t even react but his carefree face didn’t have any concern.
“You aren't going to destroy this figure for anything…if I want an heir I will get one. You are not needed for that…you have to look like a billionaire's wife all the time.

“Relax, ok? Nothing will happen to mom. We will take her home…with us.” I tried but I knew nothing I will say will make them at ease right now. Anna was only six years old when dad left us. Sarah who was only three years old at that time doesn’t have many memories with Dad but she misses him in her life.

I let out a long sigh while my thoughts were only occupied with how we can’t lose Rachael no matter what.

The doctor finally came out to inform me how she was barely saved and had to get surgery as soon as possible preferably in less than a week. I nodded with a thank you while a stone got stuck in my throat. I sat there for a few seconds with girls having their sleepy heads on my shoulders.

Relax, Julie…Relax…I closed my eyes for a few seconds to only see life with no Rachael and that was what we call an ugly mess. Hiring a babysitter that I can never trust, a bad apartment, and Joe trying to talk to Anna on the stairs…I opened my eyes and looked at Anna’s innocent face. A tear dropped on my dress when I leaned in to kiss her head.

I took the girls home and sat in my window. I hated that I wasn’t even trying to save Rachael. But what I could possibly do…I took a sip on my coffee while the offer Mr Lucca proposed rang in my head. Don’t even think about it, Julie. Imagine it was never proposed to you. Think something else. My thoughts tried to warn me but I was helpless.

“God makes solutions first and troubles later. All we need to do is get it.” I recalled my father’s words.

“…You are making it sound so easy. There are many problems with no solutions.” I replied,

“…no…solution is always there. In the back of our minds, it’s just we are afraid of new things while God is the greatest. You do what you gotta do and magic will happen.”

Don’t go there, Julie. If dad was alive today he was never going to ask you to do something like this. I felt my hands trembling a little before I finished my coffee.

I sent the girls to school while Anna kept telling me how she can manage herself and I should go to work. I walked them to their school bus and waited for a cab. I didn’t know if Mr. Lucca was going to let go of my attitude from yesterday. The thoughts of his son being an aged man in his fifties passed my mind. I couldn’t stop worrying about what was so wrong with his son that he has to look for his wife. I wonder if he was disabled, aged, angry, or have been divorced many times that no one was ready to marry him. I knew so little about the family because I was never into gossips. My subconscious kept telling me how stupid this whole ordeal was. I couldn’t shake away the fact that I was marrying someone I have never met in exchange for money.

But the decision is far better than to live with the regret that I didn’t save Rachael or put girls’ security at risk. But think about you, Julie. You never get to live how being in love is ever. This is what you wanted, right? Finding someone who is kind enough to listen and understand.

It’s ok. Life isn’t fair. And, what if I was always supposed to be his? I told myself before walking into the estate and get to reach Mr. Lucca without any problem. He was sitting in his wheelchair gazing at the lawn. I slowly walked to him trying my best not to disturb his tranquility of the moment.

“Mr. Lucca…” I started but when I didn’t get any response from his side I whispered, “…I…will do it if…if the offer still stands.” I don’t know how I sound but there was something that broke in me. And, I knew those were my dreams to ever fall in love with someone who reciprocates my affection.

I smiled when Mr. Lucca offered me to dine with him. He told me how I can pay for Rachael today because I was family and had the complete right on his property now. After knowing that I wanted to move my apartment he offered me the best places in our town on sale nowadays. But there was something I didn’t ignore. I could clearly feel that even if he was calling me family it didn’t sound like family. As if the person sitting in front of me didn’t know what family meant? And, not to forget that I was listening to him for three hours but not once he mentioned his son. And, that indeed got my palms sweaty.
