According to Asiaone.com, the couple had hired a maid to take care of their four-month-old baby only to find out that she needed help more than they did.
YEN.com.gh has learnt that the couple found out that their domestic manager was pregnant in the first month she started working at their household.
Shin Min Daily News reported that the maid left her employers' house on Thursday, September 2, with the excuse that she needed to see her dentist.
She, however, returned at 5.00 pm and told her employers that she had incurred a dental bill of GHc1,000 without providing a receipt for her treatment.
The employers later realised their domestic manager had gone to look for the father of her upcoming baby when she went missing.
Deadbeat baby daddy
YEN.com.gh has learnt the house manager's soon to be baby daddy is a Malaysian foreign worker that she had met in Singapore while still working for her previous employer, who had ghosted her.
"She cried and told us that she might be pregnant. We were shocked," the husband, a 36-year-old sales manager, told the Chinese daily.
At a loss, the couple took their maid to undergo pregnancy tests and asked if the maid agency could help them resolve the issue.
Unfortunately, the agency refused to take her back and insisted that she could continue to work, they said.
Well, following the developments the couple decided to house the house manager and help her in the best way they knew how.
The couple's good gesture impressed many netizens who took to social media to congratulate them for their nuptials.
As earlier reported by YEN.com.gh, a Rwandanese couple will have to live with the awful memory of their wedding night as they were forced to sleep out in the cold as punishment for violating COVID-19 protocols.
A report by BBC indicated police officers stormed the wedding just as it was about to end and bundled everyone who had attended into a police car for having more people in the event than the government had allowed.
Instead of being taken to a police station, the law enforcers drove all the attendees to a football stadium and made them spend the entire night in there as punishment.
The bride said the experience was humiliating and soiled what was supposed to be the most memorable day of her life.
However, Rwandan National Police Spokesperson CP John Bosco was unapologetic about the incident and said more stern actions will be taken for COVID-19 protocol violators.
