” Here ” He handed over the phone to me after dialing mom’s number and she picked immediately. ” Thanks ” I muttered.


    ” Hey mom ” I greeted. ” Marvy, are you okay? ” Was the first thing mom asked.


    ” What do you mean mom? ” I looked around to see Mr Bills leaving the room ( my room ) to give me enough privacy.


    ” Your voice.. it sounds down. Are you okay? Are they treating you well there? Why are you calling me on Mr Bill’s phone instead of yours, is everything really fine? ” Mom asked worriedly.


    ” Mom which one am I to answer first? ” I forced a chuckle.


    ” Marvy.. ” Mom called with a sigh. ” Are you really okay?” Her voice sounded hush.


    ” You can talk to me, okay? Are you okay? ” She asked. ” I guess ” I muttered.


    ” I knew something was wrong! Come on, tell me.. what is it? ” She asked hoping earnestly I would talk to her.


    ” I missed you mom. It’s boring here ” I muttered and I heard her a heave a sigh of relief. ” Just that? ” She asked and I nodded.


    ” Yeah mom.. that ” I replied. ” Do you wanna continue schooling? You could finish highschool over there, instead of taking private lessons together with Tyler at home? ” Mom suggested and I nodded again.


    ” Um sure mom.. that would be nice ” I muttered.” Marvy… there’s still something bothering you, isn’t it? ” Mom asked sadly.


    ” Mom seriously, I’m fine. If there’s something I promise I would talk to you immediately ” I muttered. ” Promise? ”


    ” I promise ” I assured.


    ” Alright then. I’m a bit busy now, is there something you still wanna talk to me about? ” Mom asked. ” No, there’s nothing ”  I replied.


    ” Alright then, bye baby ”


    ” Bye mom ” I replied and with that, the call ended.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.


    I let out a sigh as I walked back downstairs. They were still in the exact position I left them, seems Mr Bills had not said a thing about the matter he was discussing earlier as Tyler looked reserved.


    ” Thanks sir ” I handed over the phone to Mr Bills and he passed me a smile. I nced at Tyler who at the same time was staring at me. I looked away immediately, why’s he being weird?


    Oh, is it about yesternight? I sat down properly and continued with my meal.


    ” So Marvy what did you talk with your mom about? ” Mrs Bills suddenly asked and I dropped my cutlery slowly as I raised my head to her, I noticed Tyler and Mr Bill’s also did the same.


    ” About cancelling the marriage contract since Tyler isn’t interested? ” She asked while I only stared on, not knowing what to say to her.


    ” Marvy, I’m talking to you… ”


    ” That’s enough Anna! ” Mr Bills scolded.


    ” I was only.. ”


    ” I didn’t say any of such to her.. not yet. We only talked about me resuming highschool here. I n to tell her about it after I must have graduated from high school here ” I replied, indirectly giving Tyler an answer to what he wanted to hear.


    Mr Bills had his brows raised. ” Marvy? You are going to cancel the contract after you’re done schooling here? ” Mr Bills asked and I nodded.


    ” Yes sir. That’s after a year, right? ” I replied, passing a message to him. That means I must have delivered by then, then I will leave to home where no one would know about me having a baby.


    I would take care of my baby for some while before going to college and then leaving my baby with mom, that should do. She doesn’t really need a dad.


    ” Marvy, let’s talk in my room ” Mr Bills said as he stood up from his seat. I let out a little sigh as I also stood and walked after him.


    ***


    ” Would that really be okay? ” Mr Bills asked after I had finished exining what I had in mind to him.


    ” It should be okay ” I replied.


    ” But you know Tyler wouldter find out you’re carrying a baby, especially if you decide to go to school, you might be bullied for it ” Mr Bills said and I suddenly thought about it, he was right.


    ” How about a private ss for me alone? That would be okay, right? ” I asked but he shook his head.


    ” It can’t work like that Marvy and you know it ” Mr Bill’s said and reasoning what he said, I knew he was right.


    ” I will think about it and find a solution ” I said to him and he nodded.


    ” Do you want me to put this to your mom if you can’t? ” Mr Bills offered and I nodded immediately. ” Yes, that would be great ” I said and he smiled lightly.


    ” I’m really sorry for all what Tyler caused to you. I really hope you would be able to forgive himter in the future ” He said and I smiled.


    ” Of course, it’s fine ” I muttered and he smiled again. He ruffled my head slowly before walking away while I headed to my room.


    What do I do? I really wanna give Tyler space as it seems like I’m choking him with my presence. Should I just leave? I mean that would be okay.


    How about I leave back to mom’s house and then stay at home till I deliver, take care of my baby till she’s old enough to stay alone with mom then I go to college. Who knows I could see someone I love and who loves me the same way even despite being a single mom.


    This should work right? Yeah it should.


    I should go inform Mr Bills about this decision. I walked out of my room and almost by the rails, I met with Tyler. He stopped on his tracks and I did the same.


    ” Hi ” I said to him and made to continue my journey.


    ” Marvy ” He called and I stopped, I turned slowly to him.


    ” Let’s talk ” He said and I raised my brows slightly. ” Talk? ” I asked and he nodded
