Minerva’s POV
“How can she be so sure that Darwin’s the father?”
That is one of the reasons why Mariella is my bestfriend. She agrees to almost anything I say; anything I express.
“I don’t know…” I said. “One minute, she was just climbing down from the stairs. Then in a blink of an eye, she’s already on his lips along with the words ‘I’m pregnant, Darwin, and you’re the father’.”
Mariella laughed at my way of copying Gyzell’s annoying high-pitched voice. “That’s also the reason I immediately walked out like what he did to me when he saw me and Lushan talking, and quickly grabbed a cab on my way here.”
“I never knew you were an impersonator,” she said, wiping the froth from the coffee on her lips.
I sighed in dismay. Perhaps I was just meant to be a payment. Perhaps if I just agree that I’ll serve him in just a hundred days or so, I’ll now be freed of our debts—from Derrick’s debts.
