Eric needed to marry soon but the baby would definitely interfere with his plans.
After the memorial Karen decided to return home for a while.. She was very overwhelmed. Karen had lost her step father, been drugged and almost raped and also she found her biological father…To learn that he was sick was vey disturbing… Karen was not willing to lose another parent so soon..
Mom are you upset that I forgave Frank so easily..
No dear… You are doing the correct thing… Leave the problems with me and your father.
Mom you can't stay mad with dad forever,.. You have lost one love and I would hate for you to lose another way.. You have been given the opportunity to make these right.. Things happen for a reason..
You are so right my dear… I will talk to your father after he is well from the surgery…
The following day Eric went to find Regina.
After searching for her everywhere he located her in the library.
Regina
Eric, What are you doing here?
Looking for you.. Are you pregnant?
Regina instantly froze.. How did you find out?
Who is the father Regina?
I don't know
Why didn't you tell me?
I honestly believe the baby is not yours..
Are you afraid of Lily? I will protect you and the baby..
I can't be in a relationship with you but we must tell your boyfriend the truth… If the baby is mine we will all work together as a team… As for Lily she will never hurt you again..
No you do not understand Lily has a mental disorder.. She was labeled a psychopath at 16 years.. My boyfriend knows the situation and he doesn't mind raising the baby…
No, I will cover my responsibilities and we will all work together.
Regina cried …
Thank you so much Eric…
Now do we have an agreement..
Yes I will talk to my boyfriend but I'm sure it will be no problem…
You guys will be moving into my penthouse downtown… Let him know the move as to happen quickly to protect you and the baby… You will also be given a new phone.. In order for this to work Regina you have to cut off ties with Lily.. We will register your courses for online studies..
She will find me Eric… My parents… I can't just move an not tell anyone..
Until we are able to catch Lily in her wrong doings I need to protect you Regina… She has already tried to harm Karen… She is definitely not stable… I have no time to explain but do you accept my offer.. Once she has been caught or gotten help then you can see your family..
I will listen to you Eric.. I will definitely protect my baby at no costs…
Eric gave her the address to the penthouse and the instructions to enter… Your boyfriend will also need to register his information with the front desk… I will have the family physician to visit you for check ups..
