Determined.. Focused
Elizabeth’s point of view. 

When we got to Mrs. Shelby’s house, and she showed everyone to their rooms. She had already called her maids to prepare food for us all, so when we got to the house, the dining table was already well set, but one thing was surprising about it, the table was filled with Sebastian’s favorite food. As I said earlier a mother might be angry at her child, but she can never be angry to the extent that she won't care for him, or look out for him, and that was what Mrs Shelby displayed, she must have called her maids to prepare Sebastian's favorite food, so he would eat and use his drugs. We all finished eating, and it was so good, probably I shouldn't have enjoyed the food as much as I did, but, honestly, I did. Sebastian’s mother said that the guards should not take my and Sebastian’s bag into the same room, at first I wasn't really sure what she meant, but she made it clear that Sebastian and I would not sleep in the same room, and when Sebastian tried to complain, Mrs. Shelby told him that the only reason he even followed us back to the house, is because of his, and because she knows that if she had left him in his house all alone he would not have used his drugs, and she did not want that. I looked at Sebastian, and I told him not to worry, it didn't matter where would be sleeping, but the most important thing was that I would always be close to him, and I really hoped he got to clear all the mess with Alex so we would return to our house, and sleep in the same room. The guards put my bags inside the room next to Sebastian's room, and I was really hoping that his mother would not complain because she really didn't want me anywhere close to Sebastian till he sorted his mess with Alex. And just exactly what I feared, happened, Mrs Shelby, walked into the room where I was in, then she said that it was too close to Sebastian's room, and she knew that we would both get to sneak to other rooms, and she didn't want that, so she said I would stay with her in her room, for as long as Sebastian was in the house too. I told Mrs. Shelby that I was aware that Sebastian was at fault, and that her anger toward him was justified, but I didn't want to completely cut ties with Sebastian. I told her that I still wanted to be close to Sebastian, and still check up on me. Mrs. Shelby quickly joined me on the bed where I was sitting, and she said what exactly was I thinking? She said that I thought that she liked how she was treating her son, but of course not. I hate how I'm even feeling right now, knowing that my son might be hurt, and thinking his brains out right now, but I'm doing all this for his sake. Sebastian is a very determined and focused man, but he easily gets distracted too! If Sebastian sees that we are all smiling and laughing with him then he would not be serious about finding out if that child is really his or not, but once we keep our distance and give him a little attitude, then Sebastian would be quick to find out the truth because he misses us, because he misses you, his wife. That is the main reason I took you off his house, and brought you here, because as long as you are there, then Sebastian would never be serious about finding out the real truth, because you are with him. When Sebastian said that the child wasn't his, of course, I believed him, he was my son, and I knew what he could do, and could not do. Even if Sebastian and Alex were still together when he got married to you, then he would never have any intimate time with her without protection, just so he can avoid situations like this, but since the case has gotten to this, Sebastian is the only one who can help himself out of this situation. He knows Alex, he knows her weak points, and he has been with her for a while, according to what he said to him, so he should be able to get words out of her mouth, and hopefully the truth about the pregnancy, and who the real father is. She is obviously trying to pin the child on Sebastian, just to pin him down, since he tried leaving her, so he needs to act fast, this is not the time to pet Sebastian, but this is the time that he needs to stand up for himself and end all the madness with that mad woman. I don't even know how my son got caught up in the web of that wicked lady, now he is suffering for what he is not responsible for, if it were in my power I would have forced her to say the truth my way, but this is Sebastian's fight, and the son I know, the son I gave birth to is a very smart and strong one, so I'm sure this will be a Child's play for him to catch Alex red-handed. Mrs. Shelby left the room, after talking, and I sat down and thought about all she said, everything she said made lots of sense, Sebastian knows Alex better than anyone else, so getting the truth from her should not be a big deal, and hopefully, the child doesn't belong to Sebastian, because I might die if Sebastian is really the father of the child Alex is carrying. I went to join Mrs. Shelby in her room, as she instructed, but she was already asleep, it was a long day for everyone so we were all tired, it was late so I also joined her in the bed, and I slept.
