Chapter 43

   I was so nervous , we were appearing on Annie Deserati's show again to confirm the claims. Kel said it was what was best to do. I don't have a problem with confirming it, he could have posted it on social media or better still leave it all to die down until a much bigger news comes up but he said we had to do it for Evie. Evie being inquisitive has been asking us about some of the things she heard from his mom. She has been asking if we loved each other when we got married and if our marriage was fake. I'm sure she knows it is since she remembered how we were when she first came so we had to explain our relationship and marriage to her, it was hard for her to understand at first but the point is she understands that we love each other now although it wasn't so apparent in the beginning.

"I'm so nervous." I inhaled and exhaled.

"There's no need for you to be baby, if it helps I'd do most of the taking." Kel reassured kissing my cheeks and I smiled.

"You're so beautiful mi amor." The way a foreign language rolls of his tongue and the way he looks and says some things make my head want to explode sometimes.

When it was time for us to go up on stage Kel took my hands.

"And for our guest appearance we have, Mr and Mrs Adrios, that's if they really are." She joked and the audience laughed. Guess what, it wasn't funny.

We walked up to our seat and sat down, I'm pretty sure my nervousness was very transparent.

" So here you are again on the Annie Deserati's show. What has it been again, a year?" She asked and Kel nodded.

"Who would have thought that when you were seated here a year ago you weren't in love." She started pausing to watch our reaction.

"It wasn't as if we weren't in love, our feelings were just jumbled up " Kel answered.

"I see. So what brought about the marriage contract?"

I wasn't relaxed at all, the audience were staring, I felt judged. Some were already labelling me a gold digger, whore etc. I kept thinking about what could possibly be going on in their heads. Kel placed his hands on mine, squeezing it a little before he answered.

"Well, my father stated in his will that I had to get married before I acquired the company and I used it as a medium to tie her down because she really wasn't interested in marrying me."

"So you both have a daughter, did you know about this before the wedding Mr Adrios?" She asked looking at me from the corner of her eyes.

"No I didn't.'' Kel answered.

"Shayan why is this?" As if I knew she was coming to me, I suddenly became angry that she asked me a question. Why do I have to explain to her or anyone. What was I supposed to say?

"Mrs Adrios." She urged. Right, I was supposed to be talking.

"We had a terrible break up, separated, I was pregnant at that time and raised her alone, I didn't want to tell Kel then because things between us wasn't quite solid."

"I see. So how does it feel Kel, having a daughter you weren't aware of, knowing you missed out on her life?" She questioned

"Honestly it's quite sad but it doesn't really matter since we're all together now."

"So you were a victim of teenage pregnancy, how do you feel about that?" Look how she said victim as if it was a disease or I was raped.

"I wasn't cool with it at first but I got used to it. It isn't easy raising a child much less alone but I enjoyed every moment being with my daughter." I answered smiling remembering little cute moments.
