After two weeks...

"Are you sure about that?" Her manager, Adam, asks her. He sits at his desk and Evie is in front of him with a determined look.

"Yes," she says. "I'm sure of it. I think that's best. I'll find someone else. Please don't take it personally. You were an amazing manager."

"If is what you want..." Adam says calmly.

Evie leaves his office in a few minutes and closes the door. Adam can't be his manager after she broke up with his son. It would mean always meeting Patrick and not wanting that. Now she's with Nikki again and she doesn't want Patrick to stand in her way. They finished everything they had together.

She is thinking about all this now entering the elevator. She is shocked when she sees someone coming quickly to the elevator next to her. It's Patrick.

It could have been anyone but him! He's the last person she wants to see there. But since his father owns this building, the chances of meeting him are high.

She doesn't even know how to react, so she looks at him awkwardly.

"Hey, Evie," he says with a crooked smile. "What floor do you want to reach?"

"The ground floor," she answers looking elsewhere, but not at him.

Patrick presses the button and the elevator doors close, the elevator slowly lowering.

"Are you okay, Evie?" He asks her.

Evie bit her lip. She doesn't want to have any discussions with him, but it seems that he is trying hard to do that.

"Yes, I'm ok," she answers shortly.

"I heard you were leaving..." He looks at her a little sadly.

"Yes. I think it's the right decision."

"I saw you in the newspapers... With Nikki," he says reluctantly.

"And is there a problem with that?" She asks him, starting to get angry and looking at him indignantly.

"Oh no. If you're happy... I'm happy too. Maybe there wasn't as much love between us as I thought it was."

"You're probably right," she says coldly.

"I hope you're happy, Evie," he smiles at her.

"I hope you're happy too," she says, wanting to get out of that elevator as soon as possible.

In a few moments the elevator stops and Evie leaves relieved that she is no longer in Patrick's presence.

The next day...

"No... That's not possible!"

Evie sits on the toilet seat, her eyes widening in shock at the little thing in her hands. A pregnancy test.

She had been feeling unwell for a few days. She felt nauseous, and had mood swings and the more important it was that her period was late. And now she understands why.

The pregnancy test is positive. Her hands are shaking. And tears in her eyes. There are no tears of happiness. Because she doesn't know exactly how to feel about it. Because she doesn't know who the hell is her child's father!

It could be either Patrick or Nikki. She slept with Nikki after a week after sleeping with Patrick! There is a good chance it will be Patrick's because he was before Nikki. And there's such a small difference of days. The doctor probably won't figure it out either. What to do now? She hadn't planned such a thing. It would mean being tied to Patrick for life as long as he is the father.

The other day, when she met him, she thought she would be done with him. How wrong she was. It didn't help that she fired his father to be her manager. Everything was in vain. It was as if she wanted to be away from him, but she got closer to him. Now Patrick may be the father of her child.

"Babe?" Nikki's voice is heard.

"Oh, great!" Evie rolls her eyes and sighs.

Just in time. Now he came too. She sighs and rises from the toilet seat and gets dressed. She walks to the sink, puts the test aside, and washes her hands when she hears a knock on the door and Nikki's voice:

"Babe? Are you there? Are you ok?"

"Yes!" She answers and turns off the tap and wipes her hands.

"Can I come in?"

"Of course," Evie answers shortly.

Nikki goes inside and looks strangely at Evie, who has a pale face.

"Hey, babe," he says as he approaches her. "Are you ok? You don't look good."

Evie wants to answer, but he sees the pregnancy test she left on the sink. His gaze moves back to her. He is shocked to see such a thing, knowing very well what it is.

Evie rubs her elbow nervously, unable to look at him. She knew he was going to see the test, but she had to tell him what was going on anyway. She can't hide this from him.

"Evie?" He asks, walking over to her. "What happens?"

He reaches her, placing his hands on her shoulders and looking deeply into her dark eyes.

"I'm pregnant," she says in a trembling voice.

"Evie..." Nikki looks stunned by such news, but smiles. "But that's great! Why do you look sad?"

"Because I'm not sure if you're the father," Evie says and a tear falls on her face. "It could be Patrick's... I... I don't know..."

He wipes the tear from her face and hugs her, rubbing her back and whispering:

"Everything will be ok, my dear."

"How can you say that?" Evie looks at him in bewilderment. "This baby may not be your child. Would you be okay with that?"

"I love you too much for this to be an impediment now, Ev. I don't care if it's not mine. I will be with you and with the baby."

"Would you really do that?" There are several tears in the brunette's eyes.

"Of course! Anything for you. And keep in mind that this baby could be mine," he says, and puts a hand on her stomach.

She smiles weakly and puts her hand over his, which covers her stomach, and says:

"I need to talk to Patrick about this... I want to do a DNA test before the baby is born. As soon as possible."

"Anything you want, honey," he smiles at her.

"I love you," she says, smiling.

"I love you too, honey," he smiles at her too, and kisses her on the lips.

He looks at her, brushing her cheek with his thumb. The emotions he is feeling now are mixed. He had wanted children with Evie since they were together a few years ago. He is happy that this baby could be his. But a shadow of insecurity appears into his mind at the thought that this baby might be Patrick's.

But he loves Evie too much and doesn't want to lose her again so he will sacrifice everything to be with her and make her happy. If the baby is not his, he will try very hard to be the best stepfather. He will love him or her as much as he loves his or her mother.

A/N

Hey, my dears! I managed to post a new chapter. If you're wondering how I feel after what happened a week ago, well I'm better! My property is full of lights with motion sensors, surveillance cameras and alarms. I don't think that thief will dare to come here again. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! Love you!
