"Here I am" 

"Come sit and how are you?" Taylor said

"I am fineeee" I replied

"Everyone is asking  me that" I muttered

"Well, maybe because you are carrying a baby" Taylor replied

"Anyway, I wanted to tell you Tyler is suspecting Ashton and Jane are having an affair" Taylor said

"First of all, no she isn't having an affair because she is always at home and when she is not she is with Gray in the warehouse and second, who is 'Ashton'?" I asked

"He is our half brother" she said and I gasped. Tyler came in with a phone in his hand. He covered the mic and said to Taylor

"I found him. He's gonna talk" he said and left

"Everyone in your rooms. No one will come back until I say"

"Can you tell me why I needed to come here?" Jane snapped walking in. When everyone went to their room I spoke

"I know you slept with Ashton" I said though her face remained neutral her eyes changed

"Okay?"

"I know the identity of Ashton's mother and I thought it would spark interest in you"

"Isn't she dead?"

"No"

"Who is she?"

"Someone close to you"

"Stop playing with me and tell me"

"Your....."

"My?"

"Your dear mother Diana Elijah Walker"

"What?!!" she yelled

"Yes"

"Do you have proof?" she asked urgency in her voice. I handed her the papers I found. After reading it she fell on the chair. Aghast.

"Ash-Ashton is my half brother?"

"Yes"

"Is that story true?"

"Which story?"

"Don't make me say it. The bleeding to death"

 "I can look into it if you want me too"

"Please"

"Come with me to my office"

_After 5 hours_

"Look into the bio of this man" I said giving her my laptop. She typed away probably breaking the codes and gasped. To me it looked like she was watching a video. I stayed in my place until I heard a gurgling sound. I looked at her and saw her desperately trying to stop her sobs from coming out. I walked to her shaking figure on the couch. I sat beside her and slammed the laptop shut. I pulled her in my lap and stroked her back as she sobbed in my chest, her hold tight on my shirt.

"Shush. Don't give up just yet. Live up to your name" I whispered in her ears but neither did her grip loosen nor did she stop crying. After a long time staying like that she spoke

"My- my mom went through -hic- sh*t. I never paid her -hic- attention" she ended with a sob. I gently put my finger under her chin and made her face me. She looked into my eyes and my heart was aching to kiss her and make her feel comfortable with me but.....

"You- you love me don't you?" she asked me out of the blue

"I-"

"I need to got, I have work to do" she said and sent the files she needed to her laptop and left

"Guys, leave us" I said barging into a circle meeting my eyes firmly set on mom. After everyone left and I closed the door, I asked her

"Where you in a relation before marrying dad?"

"What?"

"Don't play dumb. Were you married before marrying papa?"

"I'm not bound to answer you"

"Actually you are"

"You being my daughter don't tell me things that happen in your life. Why will I tell you?"

"Fine. I slept with Ashton if I knew he was my mother's son I wouldn't have made this mistake for the sake of us sharing blood" 

"You knew he was Tyler's brother still you slept with him"

"This marriage doesn't matter to me. It's a deal" I said and she slapped me

"I don't know what you will do but North Carolina will see how a Walker mind works"

"What will you do?"

"Kill your offender brutally in the centre of North Carolina in daylight" I said and walked out of the room
