CHAPTER 47: Baby talk 2
“What?” Their eyes widened in shock.
“I’m just kidding. I definitely am not ready to have a baby now!” She chuckled.
“You’re not mother material,” Lia stated.
“Educate me madam mother material. It’s not like you’ve actually had a baby before?” She made a face of distaste. Always the critic!
“I haven’t but I have being around new mothers over the years. Being a mother is a lot of hardwork, patience and commitment. And commitments aren’t your thing! Plus you are very impatient!”
“I can be committed if I put my mind to it! Besides, it’s not that hard! And I am patient!”
“Yeah, right, It’s actually very simple. Get pregnant and have a baby and know how hard it is to take care of the baby!” She said with sarcasm in her tone.
“Is there something you girls aren’t telling me? And you plan on having a baby Kimberly? Who is gonna father the child?” She quirked her eyebrows at them in confusion as she awaited their response.
“I’m not having a baby, I was just kidding. Lia was just taking things to serious. Besides, I’m always on pills, there is no way I can get pregnant. I’m not ready for the responsibility that comes with it. Nothing to worry your little brains about!” She assured.
“That’s my line!”
“Whatever. Let’s just help you get ready for the party and no more questions. A lot of your dad’s business partners would be showing up today, so you have to look your best!”
“What? What do you mean?” She looked confused. It was supposed to be a small party of a few family and friends. How come his business partners were also coming?
“He didn’t expect the invitation to get leaked and a lot of his business partners called that they would be in attendance. He only found out about it last night so he paid a lot of decorators to decorate the large hall behind the mansion this morning. Though it was short notice, but they did a great job! You need to see this place, it’s beautiful!”
“So, we are no longer using the sitting room?” She questioned with a look of surprise. How did the invitation get leaked?
“Yes darling, it’s not gonna be your usual small party. He’s throwing you a big ball. Don’t worry everything has being arranged down to the food, drinks and even your dress!” She squealed.
“You wouldn’t believe it, he even ordered a ball dress and a beautiful pair of stilettos for you that is worth more than fifteen million dollars and five million dollars respectively!”
What? Surprise washed over her face. She never knew her dad to be that extravagant! He had money alright, but you would think he didn’t. He lived a life of simplicity. And he liked the peace and quiet that came with it.
“I know the gown is expensive but a lot of the upper class would be in attendance. You don’t expect him to buy you a cheap gown. It would soil your family’s name, besides, you deserve the best darling. You do know your dad is wealthy man, he’s just likes being on a low-key! It’s great he is actually spending money for a change.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Yes. He is a wealthy man, thanks to Blake’s connection and her dad’s hardwork and dedication.
“How come I don’t know anything about this and you all know about this?” This was a lot to take in. She never really liked to mingle and now a lot of rich kids were gonna show up at her party! She was super nervous about this!
What if she made a mistake? What if she ended up soiling her family’s name? What if she didn’t live up to her dad’s expectations?
Her dad sometimes attended his associates flamboyant parties with his family but Ariana was usually not in attendance.
She was never interested in attending such parties. Only her mom and sister usually showed up and sometimes, Jackie.
So no one really knew what the first daughter of the Garcia family looked like. A lot of people didn’t even know of her existence, some of them thought that Jackie was their first daughter.
This was a great opportunity to introduce herself to the world. But she never really liked the attention. She wasn’t good with crowd.
Her family wasn’t really that big compared to other families but it was still considered to be amongst the upper class families.
“You went to bed early dummy and woke up late. How could you possibly know? You don’t wanna be late to your party, darling! And that grand entry you were talking about, you’re definitely gonna have it, alright!”

“Wow, I never knew so many people would be in attendance. I thought this was supposed to be a small party?” Liam mumbled as he watched people troop into the hall in their numbers.
“The invitation got leaked so Nate decided to throw a birthday ball instead. A flamboyant one!” Blake explained as he pulled over at the parking space.
“I wonder how that happened. Do you think it could be a conspiracy?”
“Not sure who was behind this but the birthday ball isn’t a bad idea at all.”
“Yeah but you do know they are gonna be a lot of men feasting their eyes on your woman since she is very pretty. She’s gonna be the center of attraction.”
He made a displeased face. “They wouldn’t dare gaze at her lustfully else I would pop their eyeballs out!”
“How many eyeballs do you plan on popping?” He pouted.
“Over a million, maybe more. With just the snap of a finger I can have all their eyeballs poppin’. I just hope yours wouldn’t be amongst them,” he teased.
“That’s a lot of eyeballs. And no thanks I love my eyeball. I wouldn’t want to become blind!”
He chuckled. “More reason you should keep your eyes to yourself!”
“Whatever! So does that mean I can take off my mask then? Since everyone is pretty rich. It’s of no use hiding my identity.”
“Yeah, but none is as wealthy as you. The Garcia family is not a very big family, it’s an upper class family but it’s almost considered a middle class family. Your appearance would change their status, yes but it would also put them in the spotlight and I don’t want that! So I suggest you keep that mask on.”
“You’re right. I guess I would just stick to the mask on then. Let’s go!” He suggested, unbuckling his seat belt.
“You are seriously not following me with that?” Blake glared at him.
“With what?” Liam asked confused.
“With those pack of condoms in your pocket?!”
“Yes, I am. What if I find a girl I would like to fuck!” He pouted.
Blake scowled at him and said, “What did I say about keeping your dick to yourself? Your eyeballs are not the only thing I would pop, I might as well pop your balls also!”
Liam stared at him surprised. He wasn’t smiling. He was mad serious.
“Okay, fine! I will drop ’em! I love my balls!” He brought out the roll of condoms from his pocket and dropped them on the dashboard.
“Can we go now?”
“What about the one in your breast pocket?”
“Okay fine, you caught me!” He brought out one from his breast pocket and also dropped it.
“The one inside your shoe?”
“There is nothing inside me shoe!” He defended.
“Don’t lie to me, I’m not dumb! I saw you put one in your shoe when you thought I wasn’t looking!”
“Okay fine!” He brought out a condom from his shoe and placed it with the others.
“Can we go now?”
“Yes!”
“But don’t blame me for getting some girl pregnant. You will be the one to carter for the babies needs if that happens.”
“A child is a blessing. And you have the money to take care of millions of babies. Besides, it would be nice to be an uncle!” He smirked
“I’m not ready to father a child!” He retorted.
“More reason why you should keep your dick to yourself tonight cause I can already see you becoming a baby daddy!”
“You’re so annoying!” He groaned.
“Annoying is my middle name actually.”
