Hey mslelee,
Joseph knows that Joshua isn't his. It's just that he has raised him from birth so he is his son. Jonathan sees that he is finally getting an opportunity of course the only thing stopping them is their marriages. He feels that getting rid of Amy is quite easy for him but he does and doesn't understand Celia's devotion to Joseph after all Joshua is his son. The guilt of not having been there for her makes him do things a little at a time... for now at least. Thanks for an awesome review!

Boy, Amy just gets on my LAST nerve...I knew she would be a thorn in Celia and Jonathan's side. Again, I hope Jonathan doesn't underestimate her; the heffa is conniving.
Too cute when Jonathan told Celia about what his preparations to her home and she got upset...that was funny. Then he yelled back "Love You Too"; that was priceless!
Oh and Hortense, love her!!! She speaks with sense, can't say the same for Lydia. Is Lydia liking Joseph more than she should? I just get a sneaky feeling about her.
Great Update!

Hey Vie,
I'm grateful that you are enjoying the story and thanks for the awesome review! You know men they feel they can deal with any situation and can handle women with a snap of their fingers.
These small gestures are a way for him to start establishing that he really does care. He's taking it step by step because he does fear frightening her away so instead of doing the big gestures he asks her first.
Lydia isn't working and Joseph's money has been taking care of her and her family a great deal so she feels indebted to her but who knows what else...stay tuned...

Celia is right not to trust that Amy. She may be immature, but she is still a woman, and can read the signs men give off when they desire another woman.

Hey Spark,
Amy has been dethroned and she is trying to figure out what the heck is going on. Thanks for the awesome review!

Well looks like old Joseph is not in love with Ms. Celia anyway just the baby...that is good news..maybe can hook up with the ship trollop and stay the heck away from Celia..lol!
Dr, Jonathan is taking control and I like it!! He is going to get his woamn and his baby...even if she has to come to him kicking and screaming but I like that Celia is not push over...he will have to work for her but I hope she will finally give in to her heart!!
Amy is a skank and plotting stupid skank but hopefully Jonathan's got her number and will stop her before she causes any grief!!
Loving this little jewel of a story..it is a love story I would not have imagined working..but you write it so well..it feels just natural!!
Author's Response:
Hey neneburge,
Yeah he still loves her but his time at sea has allowed him to really think about his marriage and what the future has in store for him.
Finding out that Joshua is his son makes him want to fight for her more but first he has to get rid of the stubborn Amy discreetly as possible. It's only then he feels that the way will be cleared for them both.
Thanks for the compliment, I feel humbled and also thanks for the awesome review!

Author's Response:
Hey wwe,
Thanks as always for the awesome review! Amy's mind is whirling because do whatever you want Jonathan is gone being replaced by you get on my last nerves and go the hell away Jonathan. How did it start, when, and why are the questions that buggle her mind. As for Hortense she is Celia's younger sister and very opinionated. In the end Celia has to make up her own mind and stick to that decision regardless.

Go old Ben, always seeing what others make a note to ignore. Her sister obviously wants her husband for herself.
Author's Response:
Hey Sweet,
Its all due to Drake's sudden escape from the Bay move. Addison is wrapped up in his own world not as tight as the others. Lydia feels like she has to defend Joseph because frankly he is better catch than her own man...LOL!! Thanks so much for the great review!

The stuff with Johnathan and his son brought a major smile to my face.. awesome stuff.. awesome writing. Not sure what is going to happen with Celia and Jospeph. I don't think this is what Joseph signed up for. Time will tell.. Great Update!
Author's Response:
Hey Z,
I knew when I wrote Joseph this way that not many people would be in favor of Jonathan and Celia getting together but I said that sometimes a woman has these hard decisions in her life...reason for the title...its all in her hands!
I'm glad you loved the writing on the interaction. I thought hard about that one because I felt it was necessary to give it to the readers.
So glad you are still enjoying the fic thanks for the great review!

Hi mslelee,
Well their partners might say too close if they knew what was going on...LOL!!! The fic is named Celia for a reason because it was never meant to be easy for her but these are some of the decisions that women have always encountered.
Now mslelee I'm not going to travel this road with Ben...LOL...nice try...LOL!!!! Thanks for the awesome review!

Ok Celia sister was seriously getting on my nerves..I wanted her to mind her own business!!
I may be wrong but I want her and the doctor to wind up together, it is not their fault that his hateful daddy bansihed her away and he still loves her but more important he derserves to be with his son!!
I think Joseph and Lydia should wind up together..then she could shut up singing his praises. THough I don't want Joseph hurt does not mean I want him to have Celia either!
I love this story sweetie..I love the doc and celia's relationship so sweet and pure..I just want them to be alright!! Great job!!
Author's Response:
Hey neneburge,
Don't you enjoy having a conscious that is also your sister...you get it everyday...LOL!! Jonathan wants to have the opportunity to take care of the woman he loves and their son because he can do it now. Celia feels caught between the two because there is love and on the other hand she feels indebted to Joseph. Jonathan is definitely going to tighten the screws on her mentally and we all know what might happen when Joseph returns. Thanks for the great review!

Wow like i said in the other chapter pulling my heart girl in this story and love it.

Wow his wife would drive a person off a cliff with her mood swings lol and glad he has a friend like ben to talked to about this. thanks for the updated.
Author's Response: Yeah wwe, Celia recognizes that Joshua does have two fathers even if her heart is dedicated to only one. She can never deny Joseph's part in the care of her and her child. Amy has that type of personality...LOL!!! Thanks for the great review! Reviewer: wwefanforlife Signed

Jonathan got the chance to see his little boy. Yay! Oh I though that was a great scene. But my Celia and Jonathan hard choices are still a big problem that they both have to face. I just want Celia and Jonathan to be happy with their little boy and have more children. Is that too hard to ask Chocolate? LOL I love how Jonathan is treating Amy, but why do I have a feeling that she is going to find out that Jonathan has a son and all hell will break loose? I'm enjoying Ben as a good friend to Jonathan as Jonathan was to Drake. Jonathan and Celia are going to need all their friends that can get when everything comes out in the open. Great update Chocolate!! :)

Hard questions to answer huh? Yay!! thank-you Jonathan was settle Amy straight and tell her were to get of, but this isn't over by a long shot in Amy part. But I love that Amy and Sara made fools of themselves. They are so miserable that it isn't sad. I can't wait to see what will happen next. Thanks for the update Chocolate
Author's Response:
Hey Megumi,
Thanks for your great review! It doesn't matter who all the players are because the ball is in her court and that's why its so hard for her then you include Joshua and it breaks her heart. Everything was easier when Jonathan was far away and had his own life but now that she knows that he wants to be with the both of them..hard to stay, hard to walk away. Amy and Sara what else can I say about those two...LOL!!! Glad that you enjoyed the read...
Reviewer: Megumi Anonymous [Report This]Date: 10/04/09 01:31 am
What a sweet loving couple. I don't care what anyone says, I love them together.
Although I feel sorry for Celia's husband, he married her knowing she probably loved someone else. Afterall, her arm baby belongs to another man.
I'm not suprised that Jonatha's trying to get Celia to let him care for her and their child. But I have to admit that I'm not sure what she'll do. She loves Jonathan, but she feels a sense of responsibility to Joseph.
Author's Response:
Hey Sweet,
You hit the nail on the head...Joseph married her knowing that she loved someone else and the baby belonged to that person. Celia respects that Joseph was there for her during that critical time in her life but we all know that her heart belongs to Jonathan. Which would you choose...love or loyalty? maybe I should give my readers this question in an upcoming update...maybe...LOL!!!

Author's Response:
Hey wwe,
Yes it's going to be very hard and I wanted to show my readers that in those days it was more difficult for the woman to be with the man they loved because so many marriages were built on your station. Of course it is even more difficult for Celia but eventually she will have to make that decision.
Thanks for the great review!

thanks for the update, i am glad they spent some time together, loved the kiss, i was shocked that he suspected the baby was his, i didn`t know he knew she had a baby, i loved the way he brought up the converstaion, once he meets joshua, there is no way he will stay away, i loved he wants to take care of them, so glad amy made a fool of herself at the party, and won`t ever be invited back, oh please let him send her away, so he can spend time with celia and joshua
Author's Response:
Hey mslelee,
Jonathan hinted in 'SLAV' that he had a son. You're right there is no way that he will be able to stay away from his son once he meets Joshua. If Jonathan spends more time with Celia and Joshua it will make thinks quite intriguing for both of them especially Celia don't you think? :)

Thank goodness that Amy was found out by Jonathan and he is sending her away. But why do I have a feeling they she will try something before everything is said and done. Now Chocolate, I know that you had Celia worried on how Jonathan will reacted about little Joshua, but didn't Jonathab knew about Joshua in 'Slav' when he was talking to Drake or this is a rewrite about Jonathan knowing about Joshua?!? Great update dear and I can't wait to see what will happen next. It seems like we make get some heat in the next chapter. :D
