The woman who is pregnant with my kid

"Hey open the door!" you could hear the exclamation in his voice but he couldn't yell simply because he was too old, and if he did yell the next day he wouldn't be able to speak properly.

"Why should I?" I asked teasingly. Well indeed I was angry but I was seeing my parents after several years. even though they sort of used me as merchandise, I was well aware that they sent about 20k dollars every year to his old bank account, was it because of pity or love, I didn't get it but in my first year they did help me out a lot.

"Who's on the door?" Caitlin came walking as she was tying her long purple hair in a ponytail.

"uhh, just a random couple." I purposely said it loudly so that the people outside could hear me.

"Adam! open the door, we just want to talk!" my father finally yelled, well he gave up his voice for the next few days just to talk to me, I felt honored.

"What do you wanna talk about?"

"How you are being a sugar baby now!" it was my mother now.

I almost choked on air hearing that, "what the f*ck!?" I blurted out.

Caitlin who heard that couldn't help but start laughing.

then it dawned on me that I never visited my office, so they don't know that I am also working at the K.I. group. I bet the second they got to know that I was living in a villa, with a woman they pretty much jumped on the conclusion that she was my sugar mom.

"Wait a minute! who the heck even told you that term!?" I yelled at them.

Caitlin was practically laughing so hard that she could barely breathe. I sighed and let them in finally.

I looked at my pants and then realized that the bulge was no more, I clicked my tongue and muttered "ruined the whole mood."

We sat down on the couches, my parents sitting on the opposite couch while Caitlin and I sat together on the couch.

My dad looked around, "nice place you got here."

I just smiled and Caitlin was still having trouble calming down from being called a sugar baby.

so she got up and got some water for them. well, I didn't disapprove of her doing this, because at the end of the day they were still my parents. no matter, how scum they were, my dad is definitely losing his voice tomorrow so the water might help him soothe the pain.

"Adam, you do realize that she was your fiance." asked my dad with a serious tone.

I coughed hearing that "well... yes..."

"You could have just married her if you were gonna end up relying on her." it was my mom this time. "do you know how awkward and embarrassing it was to cancel your engagement."

~~~~~ MC's mom POV ~~~~~

well, actually it wasn't embarrassing or awkward in the least. it went oddly smooth, for some reason.

she could recall that incident clearly.

Mr. and Mrs stean were sitting on their opposite side, their faces were somewhat sweaty. and their expressions could be classified as weird.

My husband finally spoke up, breaking the silence in the room,

"Mr. Stean, we wish to withdraw the engagement. "

hearing that their faces lit up. they immediately got up and offered their hands for a handshake.

we too got up and shook their hand after we exchanged glances.

"we too Mr. Nelton, we too."

My husband only had a look of confusion on his face, but we didn't have to face any embarrassment at least.

~~~~~ Back to MC's POV ~~~~~

'who the fuck are you fooling woman!' that's what I wanted to tell her.

what I did say was "stop lying, do you really wanna go to hell this much?"

"what do you mean?" my mom asked nervously a bit.

"I mean- Caitlin here also ran away at the same time I did, so I don't think there was any reason for only you to be embarrassed, and even if you did get embarrassed because the steans didn't tell you that Caitlin ran away, it was your fault because you weren't able to gather enough intel.

hearing this my mother looked at the floor, while my father sighed.

"Alright, so what are you doing these days?"

"huh, you should fully know... since you know, you send people to spy on me practically every year," I said that with a smile, Caitlin also finally took a seat beside me.

My dad spat out the water he was drinking, I was pretty shocked too personally, how did he think that sending detectives after me in a particular month of the year was not stupid, and also hiring different private detectives who barely had experience in working as a team and then making them work as a team, it was the definition of stupid. of course I found out.

I then grinned and also dropped another bomb on them. "I only showed you what I wanted to show you, things I never let you know, including the woman who is pregnant with my kid."

This time my mom spit out the water, Caitlin was taking deep breaths trying to calm herself down so that she doesn't burst out laughing, she also wanted to see my parent's reaction, after all, she was a bit of a sadist. when my mom finally looked up with her shocked face but she had tears in her eyes and my dad just froze with his hands trembling, Caitlin who was about to burst out laughing didn't laugh, instead, her face straightened, she quickly waved her hands, "it was just a lie!, don't take it too seriously!"

My parents finally got the gist that it was a prank. "so it isn't true?" asked my dad and my mom looked at me with hopeful looks.

Their reaction was weird, I mean it was too much, simply, like yes I should get a reaction but it shouldn't be this much, it was almost like they were having PTSD but almost a downgraded version of sorts.

I replied, "only the part of me making a woman pregnant."

My parents took a breath of relief.

"don't scare us like that, do you want us to get a heart attack or something?."

I just maintained my smile "so, how is that bastard doing?"

They sighed simultaneously, I, of course, knew why they sighed, I had plenty of people in their company. "he is doing," my dad glanced at my mom, before continuing "not very good to be honest."

I raised my eyebrow and in an obviously sarcastic voice I asked "ho, I wonder why?"

My dad looked down "once he took over the company, he started taking bribes to make fake reports, he also underpaid the staff and-"

I cut him off before he could continue since I knew perfectly what he was doing, I am pretty sure I had more info on him than my parents "I know, classic incompetent CEO stuff, right?"

My dad nodded without looking me in the eye.

I decided to change the topic for a while because I could see tears in my mom's eyes, even though she hasn't really been a good mom, she has always been that person whom I could run to when I was scared of something, I didn't really want to see her crying.

"anyways, I wanna know why does mom know something like sugar baby and sugar mom?" I asked with a smile trying to uplift the mood a bit.

But I guess I made a mistake, some things even slipped under my information radar.

my parent's mood plummeted like a car falling off a cliff.

My mom just looked at the floor.

It was my dad who explained. "after you ran away, your brother brought a girl home with him, he told us that she was pregnant with his baby, she was actually a nice girl but her family was going through some financial struggles, we gladly accepted the girl, but he never treated her as his wife, neither his girlfriend, sadly, she died while giving birth but the baby survived and next week he introduced us to another girl -" he then burst into tears, my dad whom I have never seen crying, was crying!?
