16 years later

Tess Grant formerly Tess McLeod and Tess Ryan woke up next to her husband of 9 years Liam Grant. Tess got out of bed today was a very special day. Today was her daughter's sweet 16th birthday. And among her material gifts she would also give her daughter the news that in a few months Michele wouldn't be an only child any more.

She often wondered that it could be quite possible that her father had married the women that he had been cheating on her mother with and have children with her but she didn't care.

Tess went into her daughter room she was like an angle sleeping. She couldn't believe that today was her 16th birthday. She couldn't help but remember all the things that nick had missed

Her first word

Learning to walk

But the thing that was hard most on Tess was when Michele was 2 years old she had called Liam dad. So ever since then she had called Liam dad, and Tess referred to him as dad as well.

tess and Liam had met when tess was looking into buying a cafe her dream, Michele was only 2 at the time, but they soon found themselves in a partnership, with al off tess's skills from already having owned part of a cafe and Liam's wealthy backing this couldn't fail and it didn't she now owned her own restraints as well as cafe.

but her favorite memory was when Michele was 7 years old Liam had proposed to her by planting the ring on the top of a rich chocolate cake with a layer of thick warm fudge, topping toped off with a served of whipped cream on top he had just asked her to marry him she was so absorbed up in all the stuff that know one saw Michele take a spoon full of the cream along with the ring, and when she started to choke Liam and tess turned around to see Michele swallow the ring and return to normal.

They didn't know what she had taken until Liam went for the ring and saw that it was not their. So the took Michele straight down to the local ER, where they spent 6 hours their. Michele had to be taken into the operating theater, to retrieve the ring. So now Michele has a small scare on her tummy.

She was brought out of her dream by Michele stirring

"Morning mum"

"Morning sweetheart, happy 16th birthday"

"Thanks mum"

At that moment Liam walked into the room

"Morning dad"

"Morning baby, happy birthday"

The started to open presents, Michele got, a phone, cloths, and cds, make up, money and was told that she would be having a baby brother or sister. She couldn't weight, this was the best birthday ever, or so see thought
