"I'll believe you for the time being!"
Erica said, before she was interrupted by a phone call from Wesley.
Erica was mad with rage and she answered Wesley's call with furious intensity. "Dad! Tell me the truth! Am I nothing but a pair of stinky socks to you?"
Wesley was dumbstruck, his mind twirling with all kinds of questions. "What's going on?" The concerned father was just calling to ask his daughter about the violence on campus. However, before he could even open his mouth, he was greeted by the wrath of his daughter. action

Needless to say, Erica was not at all happy about what was going on all this time. Wesley refuted with confidence, "You lied to all of us! You have some nerve putting blame on me! I'd think twice before mouthing off like that if I were you!"
Wesley got her there. If the anger in Erica's heart had been an inflated balloon, the moment she heard this, whatever air that was inside the balloon was now deflated.
Erica had her reasons for lying to her parents, but unfortunately, she couldn't have told them about her reasons back then. "Then let me ask you, if I had told you that Ethan wasn't my child, would you have forced me to marry Matthew?"
"No!" If Erica hadn't lied to her parents about being pregnant at that time, Wesley wouldn't have forced her to get married at all, even if it was to Matthew.
However, Wesley hesitated as he started to have second thoughts. After all, Matthew turned out to be such a caring husband to Rika.
There was a twinge of regret inside Erica's heart. If she had told them the truth back then, her parents wouldn't have forced her into marrying Matthew. How could she have been so stupid?
"Trust me, if I had known any better, I would have told you the truth—Ouch, Matthew, that hurts!" Matthew squeezed Erica's arm tightly.
Wesley was confused for a moment, and then chuckled. "Are you with Matthew?"
"Well, I was going to ask Tessie about what had really happened back then, but Matthew insisted that I come to his office to see him first." Erica pursed her lips disapprovingly.

As for the baby in Phoebe's belly...Since Erica didn't have a problem giving Ethan, who wasn't her biological son, a home, she wouldn't hesitate to do the same for Matthew's son, as long as he promised to distance himself from Phoebe.
'Yes!' It sounded like a good idea in Erica's head.
"Will you break up with Phoebe after she gives birth to the baby? Of course, I won't object to her seeing the child, but I object to her seeing you."
Without hesitation, Matthew answered, "Of course! I don't want to have anything to do with her." All Matthew ever cared about was the baby Phoebe was carrying in her womb. After all, that baby was Nathan's only son.
Matthew had long lost his patience with Phoebe after she kept provoking Erica repeatedly. If not for the baby, Matthew would never want to see Phoebe again.
Erica smiled happily, but then the smile on her face froze for a moment. "Would it be the right thing to do? Isn't it a bit harsh, if you think about it? After all, I took away her man and now I'm taking away her child too. That can't be right."
"It is the right thing to do!" The man interrupted her firmly. "Remember, I'm not Phoebe's man. I'm your man. There's nothing wrong with you doing this!"
"Yes, you are right. But what about that child? Let's not separate a mother from her child. Why don't we just let her keep the baby?"
