Chapter 15. The Child Is Yours Larry's POV Who would have thought the CEO of RaD was someone so close to me . I had never met him , though I always knew Maya had a brother . We didn't talk much about it for her to even tell me his name , and I never bothered asking She usually doesn't want to talk about him . Sitting in my office , I couldn't help but think about this I had left the house so early before Maya would wake up . I didn't know why I was avoiding her but I didn't know how I would face her . Last night , I had almost nodded to the fact that Brandy called her a whore . thought that she wants a divorce because she wants to be with the young man beside her , but turns out , he's I honestly Marvin Vinn . Her brother . Then my gaze went to the divorce papers she had given me . It was a good thing she hadn't signed them , but I wondered until when I would be able to keep giving excuses just because I wanted her here . With me . Henry interrupted my thoughts as he placed a knock on the door , then entered almost immediately . " Boss You have a visitor he said and I asked with my gaze about who it was . " She said to tell you Brandy , Sir " he said and I didn't know why , but I sighed before I told him to let her in . A few minutes later , Brandy was inside the office , a lunch pack in her hands . " Hey , Larry " Her greeting wasn't getting to me , but the fact that I saw a smile on her face which indicated that she was getting better did She stopped in front of me , placing the lunch pack on my desk Then she unboxed it , smiling as she did . I didn't say a word , just watched until she was done . " I brought you lunch . I figured out you might like some potatoes " she said . I glanced at the food and then took my gaze back to her . Maya knew not to give me potatoes as she knew I don't eat them . But I don't tell Brandy this . I don't want her to feel hurt " Thank you , Brandy . But you don't need to do these things I told her , a way of telling her those services weren't needed . ll be fine without her meals . " Guess you are telling me to leave " she chuckled nervously . " No , no " I quickly told her , " You can stay if you want " I told her but her gaze told me she wasn't going to " No , I will go " she said , moving towards the door and I couldn't help but sigh , my I didn't want her to hurt , but I guess I later did that Just as she reached the door , she stopped , groaning as she held her ch " Brandy ? " I called , but then became alarmed when she didn't give a response 1 rushed over to her , turning her around to face me " My chest . It hurts " she said and 1 examined her , pressing slightly on her chest . " Here ? " I asked and she nodded , groaning . I was no doctor , and I didn't know what to do . But then she stood up , my hands getting withdrawn from her chest . " I think I'm okay now , " she said . twisting I breathed out in relief , but then realized that her gaze was glued to me , eyes not wanting to leave mine Her gaze darted from my eyes to my lips and it made me gulp , hoping it's not what I'm thinking . She stepped closer , closing in on the space between us . Then her arms locked around my neck . " Brandy_stop " I called , my gaze darkening but maybe she didn't hear that , or maybe she was just pretending not to . She leaned in , her mouth getting closer to give a kiss but when her lips almost touched mine , I pushed her away , gently . " Brandy , stop " I said , this time more loud and stern . She swallowed hard , forgetting on her fingers . I'm sorry , that really wasn't intentional I lost it for a moment " I wanted to understand her but still couldn't . Instead , I sighed . She was trying to play with me , trying to play a game I don't even know if she would be winning , but as much as she was doing that , I wanted to believe it's just because Darey's death was getting into her head . Then I recalled something important , a question I had wanted to ask her since the day we left the hospital . " Your pregnancy , Brandy " I said and her eyes shot up , suddenly feeling nervous " What about it ?" She asked swiftly " Whose child is it ? " I asked . It should be Darey's , but if it wasn't , then it would be for someone else . I didn't want to picture her having an affair in my head . Darey . The child has to be Darey's " It's yours , Larry " she said , and my gaze shot up to her in surprise She was kidding . She has to be " What on earth is that supposed to mean , Brandy ? " I asked , getting frustrated " You don't believe me ? " She asked , her voice now going low , trembling . " How am I supposed to , Brandy ? How can the child inside you be mine ? " I told her . " We never had anything together " I gritted . " No , we did , " her voice was sharp , clear . Like she had no doubts . " Remember that day you stayed overnight in the hospital with me ? " She asked . I couldn't remember that day she was talking about , because I spent numerous nights over in her ward , watching over her . " Honestly , that day we had drinks together , " she said . Of course I remembered that day , she begged for some alcohol and I had to find her some because I believed she needed it . We ended up drinking the glasses together . " Then I went to the bathroom , remember ? " She continued , " And when I came back , you were asleep on the bed . I didn't know what got over me , I just .... " I didn't let her finish " No , you didn't do anything . Brandy , " I told her . There was no way she'd do anything to me and I won't know . " Believe me , it's your child ' she almost statted crying . " We will have another test , Brandy I told her , and that was final . Maybe she wasn't the mother . even pregnant . As much as having a child sounded great , I wouldn't want to father a child with Brandy as Preparing for the Gala
