Hastings & Wilshire Law Firm
"Mrs. Powers, it's official. The divorce papers are signed," Attorney Hastings announced, passing me a copy.
Taking a deep breath, it sank in that my marriage was truly over, legally binding. "I can't believe I'm pregnant and divorced at my age."
"It's tough, but you'll get through it. Now's the time to focus on healing and being the best mom you can be for your baby," Attorney Hastings offered, trying to provide some comfort.
"Thanks for everything, Laura," I said, rising to leave.
"You're welcome. Take care. Oh, could you close the door on your way out?" she requested.
Closing the door behind me, I spotted Kelci engrossed in her work as I made my way down the hallway.
"Knock knock," I announced softly, entering her office.
Kelci's face brightened with a smile. "Hey, Ryan! What brings you here?" she asked, rising to hug me. "Sit down sis!"
"I was with Laura. My divorce is finalized. It's official—I'm single," I shared, glancing briefly at my wedding ring, lost in memories. "Three years of marriage, and it all comes down to this."
"Ryan, I get it. He was your husband, flaws and all," Kelcy empathized.
"But once he crossed that line, trying to take my life, it was game over. I'm ready to move forward with Quincy. Might seem quick, but I've had feelings for him since we met on STAR," I admitted, rubbing my belly softly.
"You're right, it's time. Have you talked to him yet?" Kelcy asked.
"Not yet, but it's on my to-do list. I need closure, to understand why he did what he did. I gave him my all, but it wasn't enough," I said, shaking my head. "And yeah, I still had feelings for Quincy, but those were pushed aside when I thought I'd never see him again."
"Well, I know things seem rough, but I'm genuinely happy for you and Quincy. He's a great guy, and he's been there for me too," Kelcy said with a supportive tone.
I couldn't help but smile. "Yeah, despite everything, he's a keeper. I'm glad our son will have him."
"A boy, huh?" Kelcy's eyes lit up as she stood to give my belly a gentle rub.
"Yes, and we're over the moon about it," I confirmed.
As Kelcy settled back into her chair, a worried expression crossed her face.
"What's on your mind, Kelcy?" I asked, noticing her concern.
"Ryan, how are you guys going to handle all of this?" she inquired softly.
I sighed, feeling the weight of the situation. "Honestly, I have no clue. I feel like I need a crisis manager, someone like Olivia Pope. I've never been in a scandal before, never thought I would be. Usually, my mom handles this stuff for me."
"I know just the person," Kelcy said, reaching for her phone. "Her name is Claire Agnelli. She's like a real-life Olivia Pope, and she's got a whole team behind her."
"I need her," I asserted with determination.
Kelcy nodded, already dialing Claire's number. "She's expensive, but she'll make it like none of this ever happened."
"I don't wanna worry about revenge. I just wanna focus on moving forward."
After an informal phone meeting with Claire, I felt a glimmer of hope.
"Kelcy, thank you so much. I owe you big time," I expressed my gratitude.
"No need for thanks, we're practically family," Kelcy replied warmly. "You'll get through this. Keep me posted."
"Will do. Now, I'm off to call Quincy. I wanna mount him like a pony ," I said with a smirk, rising from my seat.
"You're naughty Ryan!" Kelcy chuckled as I headed out the door.
