I burst into tears as I saw my mother. I wrapped my arms tightly around her. "I'm so sorry," I muttered repeatedly.

"It's okay. It's not your fault." she combed her hands through my hair to comfort me.

"It is. I brought him into our lives." If I hadn't dated William, then all this wouldn't have happened. He brought all the pain into my life. I wouldn't have gotten pregnant, wouldn't have met Valdo and wouldn't have had Jamaica.

I sighed. Valdo and Jamaica were the best things that have ever happened to me, and I wouldn't trade them for the world.

I was finally getting my happy ending, but William just wouldn't allow me.

"Shh...Valdo and Eric will deal with William. You just calm down." she pulled me out of the hug and wiped my tears away. "Valdo won't let anything happen to you. He loves you dearly, and he loves Jamaica too. He'll protect you from William. Eric know a few persons too, he'll help Valdo deal with it. You don't have to worry. I love you and if those handsome, rich guys can't protect you, I will"

I smiled through my tears, "I love you too."

The two men ended their conversation and walked over to us. "Tomorrow, we'll handle William and make sure he never gets close to us again," Valdo said.

I looked at him and asked, "How?"

"We'll talk with him."

I frowned. How will talking to him make this go away? "That won't work."

"It will if we use our fist." Eric blurted out honestly.

I looked at both men, "You'll get in trouble. Look what he did the last time."I shook my head, "No. I don't want you hurting him. God knows what lies he'd try to pin on you next. We'll find another way."

"There is no other way. We can't file a restraining order because he's never actually threatened you before. All he wants is his child." Eric sighed, "I'm a lawyer. I see things like this all the time. He won't give up. I don't like the idea of hurting him, but I honestly don't see any other option. We need to get him off our backs for at least two weeks."

"Then let's get him off our backs in a way that's legal." I hated William with every cell in my body, but I didn't want Valdo and Eric hurting because he proved how ruthless he could be in Alton.

"How are we going to do that?" My mother asked.

"By giving him what he wants." They all stared at me with a frown. "He wants his child. Let's get a DNA done."

"But he is her father." My mother frowned, "Isn't he?"

I nod, "He is, but he doesn't need to know that. We could agree to do a DNA test to prove he isn't her father. All we need is a doctor to fake the results."

"I know a guy," Eric added.

I glanced at him, "Great. We just need to convince William to get the test done."

"That might not be too easy."

I shrugged, "It's better than getting Valdo locked up in a cell again."

Valdo sighed, "Fine. We'll go ahead with your plan. We'll need to bait him. He can't know what we're up to."

Eric nodded, agreeing. "You're right. He has resources. I was surprised he knew where you lived. He must have hired someone to check you out."

"He comes from a family of wealth. His father is probably helping him. They both have the same sociopathic tendencies." I didn't know the full story behind what happened between William's dad and my mom, but I knew it must have been awful for her to hate him so much.
