"What the hell is going on?" Ryan asked Ivy after the doctor attended to her. Guilt crept into him as he looked at the bandage on her forehead. "I'm sorry. I don't know why Larisa has changed. She used to be so kind." When he went to the parking lot, he thought he saw Larisa pulling Ivy out of the wheelchair. He got so nervous that Ivy would get hurt.

After all, she hurt her legs because of him. He wouldn't want her to get hurt because his wife got jealous. "I hope you can forgive her. She usually doesn't get worked up," Ryan added.

They were in a VIP hospital room with Ivy lying on the small hospital bed since they had left her wheelchair. Ivy smiled and grabbed Ryan's hand, saying, "Hey, don't get it wrong. This is not Larisa's fault. I fell on my own... it seems my wheelchair has sproblems." Ryan's eyes widened slightly. He asked, "Are you saying Larisa didn't push you?" Ivy shook her head, biting her lower lip. She replied, "No, she didn't push me. Please don't blher for this. I don't want the two of you to have a misunderstanding because of me." Ryan furrowed his eyebrows. He recalled how he had roughly pushed Larisa away. He didn't even turn to see if she had hurt herself when she fell on the ground.

Who knew he had misread everything and blamed her for something she didn't do? Guilt crept into him. 'Cto think of it, I overreacted without finding out what happened,' he mused.

"I had no idea..." He murmured.

Ivy gave him a sweet smile and said, "You should go to her and clear up the misunderstanding." Ryan glanced at Ivy. He thought Ivy was still as considerate as she used to be. Nodding, he uttered, "I'll go and see her but first, lettake you home. We left your wheelchair at the company. I've called someone to get you a new one since that one is faulty." "Ok... I can wait alone though... don't leave Larisa alone for too long," Ivy remarked.

"Don't worry about it. I'll explain to her and she will understand," Ryan replied.

Meanwhile, Larisa met her best friend at a cafe before going home.

"What? You're pregnant?" Bianca's eyes widened into saucers. "That's incredible news!" A sad smile crossed Larisa's lips. She said, "I don't know if it is... you were right about last night. The man you saw was Ryan. It turns out the woman he was with is the woman he has always been in love with." "What the hell?" Bianca hissed. She clenched her hands into fists and asked, "Is he cheating on you with his old love?" "I don't know. I always knew there was no love between us but it hurts to confirm it. Perhaps I should do what I have been delaying to do all this while," Larisa responded, her heart clenching.

"Are you crazy? Why would you leave your marriage? Especially now that you found out you're pregnant? Being a single mother is tough, hun. I say, get rid of that homewrecker. You're the legal wife here!" Bianca proclaimed. "If you can't tell her off, I can do it for you." "And then what, Bee?" Larisa shook her head. "You should have seen how worried he looked when he thought I had pushed her. He didn't hesitate to pushfor her sake. I don't think I can handle seeing him defend her... moreover, I can only keep a man who wants to be kept." Bianca felt bad for her friend. She nodded and remarked, "Try to tell him about your pregnancy. I'm sure the temporal excitement he's having at seeing his old love will disappear once he knows he has a child on the way." Larisa placed a hand on her belly and caressed it slightly. She recalled how hard Ryan had pushed her away. He didn't even try to check on her to see if she was ok... what if he didn't want to have a child with her? He may end up asking her to get rid of the baby so that he could be with the love of his life.

Shaking her head, Larisa said, "I'm not going to tell him about the pregnancy. He never wanted to marryin the first place... I'm sure having a child withis the last thing he would want right now. I'll only get in the way of his happiness." Bianca sighed heavily. She realised that Larisa had made up her mind, so there was no use in talking her out of it.
