Instagram was lucky today Lucious blessed his fans time line with a photo of him kissing Cookie. Of course the baby wasn't in sight . They wanted to keep  it between them and the family as long as possible . He wrote a long paragrapher to his bride to be .
Lucious: A lot of people told you from the very beginning to leave me . Today , they are still telling you the same thing . But still, God wants us to be together . In all this , I have hurt you and sometimes I wonder if we are past the point of no return . I saw an opportunity to renew the bond that was made between us years ago . The fact that you said yes confirms that our love is unconditional . I love you Loretha. You've given me 3 amazing sons and an Empire fit for a king . Now it's time for me to give you the world but most importantly a happy marriage . The fans were in awe at his message but Cookie's response to that message would break the internet . She had secretly told the boys about the baby. Andre didn't say much but deep down he was a bit worried about his parents. He didn't want to go through another break up phase. Hakeem was happy to not be the baby anymore and Jamal was neutral . Happy to be having a sibling but careful not to over excite the situation.  Posting a video on her story in her causal Sunday dress, she turned to the side revealing her baby bump .
Cookie: Lyon #4 on the way .
____________________________________

Candace : Well Cookie is trending again .
Kevin: 😂😂😂 the power of social media. Where did you get that dress from ?
Candace: it's new .
Kevin: it's a bit short .
Candace : yea 😏😏.
Kevin: what would happen if you bent over .
Candace: pull over somewhere and you'll find out .
Kevin: he grabbed her thigh and turned into a corner
Kevin wasn't complaining about their new found passion. Heck they needed it after a few weeks of hard core therapy things were back on track , and he was in control of his household again . Candace would always be a tough woman but for Kevin she was willing to change . She had to as much as she acted like everything was together . She didn't want to lose her husband that's something she wouldn't be able to take it .
Meanwhile Carol is deciding what to wear . Nick was taking her out to meet his friends.
Nick: I like them both but what are you feeling today ?
Carol: this purple is a bit risky so I'll go with the red .
Nick: I like risk. He whispered in her ear .
Carol: nasty 😂😂😂.
Nick: I don't know why your so nervous .
Carol: I'm not .
Nick: well stand still .  She found it impossible to do so.
Carol: okay I'm a little nervous .
Nick: your amazing that's all that matters .
Carol: awww come and zip me up . He did and they headed into town .
They walked into the red crab together . She and Nick both loved sea food so much, so this would be a happy place to make new memories .
They greeted the happy couple .
Nick: Everyone this is my baby carol.
Everyone : Hey Carol .
Nick: babe this is Shawn . My best friend since high school.
Shawn: Nice to finally meet the woman that his this man crazy in love .
Nick: this is Jessica . She helped me land my first art deal and we have been business partners since then. Her husband is an amazing doctor .
Jessica: Got to make sure he's in good health. Nice to meet you Carol.
Nick: and last but not least my boy Eric . He keeps away the fakes .
Eric just nodded at Carol. Half way through the meal everyone was getting along great and Carol and Jessica seemed to be talking up a storm .
Eric: So Nick this the girl that was in the center with P.
Nick: Eric what are you doing .
Carol : Yes I am that girl. I'm an ex drug addict . Everyone got quiet and Nick tried to but in.
Carol: anymore questions Eric ?
Eric: Well we can't have Nick dating somebody with a record .
Jessica: Your such a pig!
Nick: Alright Enough ! Thats not your place Eric!
Carol sighed and put her napkin down .
Nick: Babe where you-
Carol: Can I have the car keys please .
Nick handed it to her and got up .
Carol: No you stay. It was nice meeting y'all . Have a good evening.  She walked off
Nick: WHATS YOUR PROBLEM!!! He moved his chair back and went after Carol.
Nick: Babe please don't drive off like this...
Carol clicked her seatbelt.
Carol: I'm not a trophy but I'm not a tragedy either. I think we should both think about where this is going. Give each other some space.
Nick: I don't want space from the love of my life. Don't do this.
Carol started the engine and put the car in drive.

Meanwhile Lucious and Cookie are waiting on Renee to arrive .

Cookie: Babe you good?
Lucious: of course. He rubbed her bump
Cookie: I'm so happy.
Lucious: Thats  all I want baby.
The heard the door bell ring and Juanita opened the door for Renee.
Renee: Lo lo.
Cookie: mom. They met each other half way and hugged.
Renee: Let me look at the miracle. Renee put hands on her bump.
Cookie : Lu and I want a girl.
Renee: any morning sickens.
Cookie : No thank God.
Renee: I never had morning sickness either. Cookie smiled
Renee: Well congrats Lucious.
Lucious : Thanks Renee. They shook hands briefly.
Cookie thinking this is a start.
They went into the garden area where Juanita had food places for them .
Cookie : Thank you so much Juanita.
Juanita : no problem. Enjoy.
Renee : So a wedding.
Lucious : Yes we want this very much.
Renee looked around
Renee: why would you build a house with such high walls and stiff security.
Lucious: isn't that what all homes should have.
Renee: seems suffocationg and controlling to me.
Cookie gave her the look
Cookie: this house has been designed just the way I want it. Lu just paid for it.
Lucious: what she said.
Renee: Well my apologise.
Cookie : So you seen Carol and Candace yet ?
Renee : yes and I've really missed out on my grand kids growing up.
Lucious thinking you just realized that.
Cookie : Well your here now where are you living.
Renee: I'm actually have a house warming and I want you and luscious and everybody else to come.
Cookie looking at Lucious for conformation.
Lucious : Ofcourse.
Renee : You know while I was in Africa before a woman gave birth the mother would stay with her in the two final months.
Lucious 🤨🤨🤨🤨
Cookie : Really so you'd stay with me?
Renee : Well babe that's in Africa.
Cookie : No difference. What if I wanted you to.
Renee : Girl you is married now.
Cookie : Lu wouldn't mind.
Renee always knew what to say to get Cookie to agree with her way of doing things.
Lucious : if that's what you want then yes babe.
Cookie : there you go it's settled

Renee grinned and luscious growled inwardly. This pregnancy was about to be long.
