Prologue.
Abigail started working as a maid in The Williams's mansion a couple of months ago in order to earn money to pay for her mum’s surgery. Sarah, her mother, was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Unintentionally, Abby developed feelings for Liam Williams, the only son and heir to The Williams's empire.
Liam was also attracted to her but they both decided to ignore the tingling sensations and sparks that flew between them because they were people from different worlds. Abigail kept reminding herself that she was there to work and earn and not to fall in love.
Fortunately and unfortunately, they unleashed their burning desire in one night. They broke the rule, they had sex and words couldn’t describe how amazing it felt for both of them. They couldn't get enough of each other.
The next morning, Abigail woke up in her room in the servant quarters and instead of opening her eyes to see Liam beside her, she saw a paper.
The paper was not so neatly folded and out of curiosity, she reached for it and opened it.
She blushed when she saw the unique cursive handwriting. It was Liam's and she could recognize it anywhere.
As soon as she started reading the words scribbled on the paper, her blush disappeared and from nowhere, heavy tears welled up in her eyes.
Liam made it clear that what happened between them the previous night was a mistake that should never have occurred so she should forget that something like that ever took place.
Abby tore the paper into big pieces, squeezed them all together and threw it across her room in anger, not caring where it landed.
Then she buried her face into her pillow and cried...............
Seconds became minutes and days became weeks. Abigail made several attempts to talk to Liam but he always ignored her and treated her as if she never existed, until he left for Australia, for his masters, without saying goodbye.
A few weeks later, Abigail started having a series of morning sickness which Ruby noticed. Ruby Williams was the woman of the house, the mother of Liam and Anna Williams and wife to Robert Williams.
She was a loving and caring woman and at the same time very disciplined. She was the type of person that called a spade, a spade, a 48-year-old who treated everyone with respect.
When she noticed that her youngest staff, Abigail, was sick, She gave her a day off to go to the hospital and also some money in case she needed to buy medications.
The doctor ran some tests on Abby, asked her a series of questions which made her wonder if she came over for an interview.
The test result was ready a few hours later and the doctor revealed she was pregnant.
That was when everything came crashing down for Abigail. She burst into tears as she wondered how she was going to cope with raising a child on her own. She could not believe how her life had turned upside down within a few months.
How would she face the Williams's and tell them she was pregnant with Liam’s child?
Will they believe her?
What if they thought of her as a slut who was only interested in their money?
Abigail felt She couldn’t do that to them, She couldn’t betray their trust in her. She was the foolish one, If she had not slept with Liam she would not have gotten pregnant.
She cried and cried until her eyes were swollen. She feared for her life, for the life of her unborn child, She feared what the future held for them.
After weighing the pros and cons, She decided to quit working for the Williams and never look back. Hopefully, they will never find out she left with their heir.
