The way to Jonathan's mansion was filled with tension or maybe to Nick's thought. Their conversation was normal, talking about life and work. After all they were both the CEO and their company is still partnering well despite their lack of communication after all this time.

Never once Jonathan mentioned a thing about Siara. Maybe Jonathan thought he never know that Siara was ran away. Or maybe the man was already move on from her. Nick could only hope the latter, therefore there wasn't any guilt left in his life towards him.

Now, Nick wondered if he could survive these three days in Jonathan's mansion without any suspicious from him or any of his family.

When they arrived at his mansion, Jonathan gave the key to George and instructed the driver to park his car and brought Nick's suitcase to one of the guest room. Jonathan signaled Nick to follow him and he do as he say. Nick followed him to the bench on the pool. Nick saw Jonathan ordered one of his maid to serve their food and drinks. Nick took in all of his feature. He was a bit different from the last time he saw. The man in front of him was a bit thinner, the way he smiled was a bit force, and the most of all, his jade eyes were no gleamed with happiness and Nick know the reason why.

As Jonathan opened his mouth to spoke, Andrew and Bianca came interrupted them. 

"Hey, man." Andrew greeted, "You finally here."

"It's good to see you." Bianca hugged Nick the moment he stood up from his seat.

Nick hugged him back and kissed her on the cheek, "I miss you. You're pregnant."

Bianca smiled, "Yeah, three months. Come on, please sit again."

Nick did as she said, while Bianca sat on Andrew's lap. 

"Any news, Nick?" Bianca asked.

Nick tried to made his face looked disappointed, because he knows what was Bianca talked about, "No, none of it. She didn't contact me at all."

"I really wonder where she is." Andrew chirped in, "I mean we tried everywhere but there was no sign of her."

"She was supposed to gave birth right now." Jonathan said all of sudden. "Maybe around last week. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl."

The three of them looked up to Jonathan, but the man doesn't looked back. His gaze fell to the pool beside him. Nick swallowed the lump in his throat. He was never good at lying. By the sound of Jonathan longing voice, maybe he already made a mistake. Maybe keeping Siara for himself was never good. 

"Jonathan."

The four of them frowned when there was another soft voice came and called for Jonathan. Anna stepped out from the door and stood next to Jonathan with sweet smile plastered on her lips. To say Nick was surprised was understatement, he didn't hell know what's going in here. How could that woman be in here, in Jonathan's mansion, without any guilt on her?

Nick's eyes darted to Anna's stomach. There was a small bump, he guessed maybe around three going for four month. His calculating it when Siara's left this mansion.

"I will be going to the doctor. Will you come with me?" Anna asked.

"I can't, Anna." Jonathan shook his head, "I'm having a guest right now."

Anna darted her eyes from Jonathan's face to Nick's face. She smiled to him, "Hello."

"What the fuck is that whore doing in here?" Nick spat.

Anna's eyes widened, so does Jonathan, Andrew, and Bianca. The four of them looked at Nick like they saw ghost. They never really heard Nick swore, let alone said something mean. Hearing those words came out from Nick made them see that Nick really was angry.
