CHAPTER NINE

Everyone is waiting for Dylan to come. We are all here in dad’s conference room inside the mansion. Dane wants to talk to us and no one knows what’s her reason. I didn't take Lileth with me either because Dane said we were the only ones she wanted to talk to.

We don’t know what’s happening and why Dane called us. She said she had something important to say and we should be the first to know. Maybe one of her achievements. She may have had another big achievement. But I am hoping that it’s between her and Cooper.

It’s been a month since Cooper left the country. So, I am thinking right that she has good news between the two of them, especially now that Wallace is gone. He left her. I hope my sister will realize that Wallace is not deserving. And she will choose Cooper.

"Sorry, I'm late." It’s Dylan who’s always been feeling important.

"Tss!" Dylan looked at me but ignored me.

"What's up, Dane?" he asks and sits beside Dane. Everyone is here except Daze who she never called because she is no longer needed here.

“What’s this is all about, Diana Dane?” dad asks.

“Dad, Mom, and siblings ---” she sighed first before continuing. "I'm pregnant."

"What?" Almost all of us had the same reaction except for Dylan who was smiling. Really stupid, her sister got pregnant out of wedlock and it never bothers him.

“Ow, a blessing,” he uttered.

"What the hell, Diana Dane?" Daddy asked angrily. “We allow you to be a bedwarmer. Now you're pregnant?” Dane did not answer. She didn't even say sorry for her pregnancy. She looks calm as if she doesn’t care in our opinion.

“What’s wrong? We should be happy because I have a new baby.” Dylan said smiling. As I expected the fool. "I know now what will the name, Ace, that's Wallace's child, isn't it?"

"Probably, Dylan, what will you expect? For Cooper?" Dale replied. "Wallace is her new, right?" I silently cuss because Cooper really has no hope for Dane.

But no, she was just pregnant and not married. I knew Cooper would accept Dane even if she was pregnant. He loves Dane that much and he’s willing to stand up for that kid even without Wallace.

“It’s my child,” Dane said. "I just inform you before you discovered my stomach got big."

“At what do you want us to react? Be happy?" dad angrily said.

"Diana, what a shame you did," mom seconded.

“Wait, what do you want? Dane will abort her daughter? I will not allow it to happen, I am the one who objects first,” Dylan also said.

"Will she get pregnant out of wedlock?" mom asks.

“What’s wrong there? A trend today? Then what's the problem if Dane gets pregnant? She could give her child the luxury even without a father. She has money, property, and funds that even until her child grows old, she will probably not run out and grow even more,” Dylan defended her. “I can add mind, so what’s the big deal?”

“You didn’t act like a responsibly, you’re an eldest, yet you stand as a bad example to them?” dad complained.

"Dad—"

"Responsible?" Dylan snatched what Dane was about to say. “Why do you always have that stupid responsibility when things happen? Dad, isn’t Dane still responsible for what she does that she follows what you want for this family and set aside her own just to make you happy? Only now has she given herself up and she is no longer responsible?”

"You don't know what you're talking about, Dylan Damon."

“I know what I am talking about, dad. Who always attended our meeting at school back then, ‘didn’t Dane? Who’s there when we need help with school projects? also Dane. Who takes care of us when we’re sick? isn’t Dane again? You, you where are you? Nothing, because you are busy getting rich and you have no time for us. Yeah, you’re there to ask how are we? Guide us and tell us what to do. But before you can tell us, Dane came first. She has been with us and she is always present in every happening of our lives.”

Well, he has a point that I can’t disagree with. We are rich and together. But we don't seem to have parents because they are busy. Only Dane was always there with us then.
