Twins!
"What happened? Is there something else that i need to be worried of? Why you guys look so tens? Am I going to die?" Evelyn asked unhurriedly.
"What! What the hell are you talking about!" Archie angrily looked at her
"Exactly miss. You shouldn't be saying such kind of things." Antonio reprimanded as well.
Evelyn hurriedly nodded and accepted her mistake and asked again. "Okay, sorry i was wrong. But can you now please tell me what's going on?"
Seeing how worried Evelyn is Antonio beckoned Archie who walked towards Evelyn and took a seat bedside her. Sighing once he said.
"Evelyn, the doctor said... you're carrying twins," Archie said softly, his eyes full of emotion. "Both are healthy. It was a false alarm."
She had been bracing herself for the worst, fearing the loss of her precious child. A rush of emotions flooded over her—relief, disbelief, and pure amazement. Tears welled in her eyes, not of sadness, but of joy and wonder as she learned she wasn't just carrying one, but two precious babies. In that moment, fear gave way to overwhelming gratitude and awe.
Weeks ago she wanted to get herself free from them. And suddenly today... She couldn't believe her ears. She couldn't believe Archie for once. But somewhere in their heart, she felt it very true. She is carrying two children. She felt like the god took away two lifelines of her, father and brother. And with these twins, they again gave her a purpose of living.
Relief flooded Evelyn, and she broke down in tears, clinging to Archie. "Thank you, Archie. I was so scared."
"I know," Archie whispered, holding her tightly. "But you're strong, and so are they."
Evelyn bobbed her head in affirmation. Her children are fine. And she will make sure that they will always be fine. She would never let anyone do anything against her children. She would protect them with her life.
Once the initial shock and relief had passed, the trio sat down to discuss the next steps. The clan leaders would need to be informed, and Evelyn knew it wouldn't be easy. The clan had strict traditions, and a child out of wedlock, even for the heir, was a contentious issue.
She cannot ask them to accept her. She nowhere expect anything from them. Ahe knows that although she was helpful to them till now, she is now also a liability to be taken care if. How could she ask them to accept when her priority has changed with the children in her womb.
She won't lie by saying that she isn't worried. The only thing that is left by her father is this clan to her. She is worried of losing it. But this power is nothing compared to the children she is carrying. She won't force nor expect any sympathy.
"We need to be honest with them," Evelyn said firmly. "They deserve to know the truth, and I owe it to my children to fight for their place in this family. We'll tell them today. It's up to them to decide. If they still want me to lead, I will do so but if not, I would only allow Antonio to lead until I find the proper leader."
"Miss-" Antonio worriedly looked at Evelyn.
"No discussion can be happen on that." Evelyn said as got up from the bed to leave.
"Evelyn how about we wait for while and bit by bit try to convince them." Archie asked.
"It doesn't matter. If they can say no to this, I won't care whether few of my sugarcoated words can convince them. I would rather not have any such fake affirmation. I have made my decision. And I expect them to be clear headed to make decision as well. I will give them this night to decide. Whatever they say I would take it." Evelyn answered and straight walked inside the washroom leaving no room for discussion. Soon a maid also followed Evelyn behind with a cloth to change.
Archie and Antonio nodded in agreement, though worry lingered in their eyes. The decision was made. They would face the clan leaders together. To them no matter what Evelyn decide on they are always standing through her side.
