“Her house? I need to call Jack first,” the messenger said, fumbling with the phone in his shaky hand. The messenger felt anxious, worried that the girl had stolen something from the CEO and that they might expect him to refund the money he was being paid or pay for the damage.When they arrived at the old restaurant, Jack brought his grandmother to share what she knew about Elena. Theresa appeared nervous.“I’m not here to hurt anyone. I don’t understand why you’re all acting so strangely,” Bryan tried to clear the air before asking.“Where is Elena? I need to speak with her privately!” he insisted, using her name as if he was familiar with her.“She went to the hospital; she wasn’t feeling well this morning,” Theresa replied.Bryan decided to wait but his patience was wearing thin. He excused himself, took note of the hospital's name, and set off to find her.“Thank you, doctor. I’ll be more careful next time!” Elena said gratefully, relieved that her baby was okay. But she was star

“Take you to the hospital? No way! You said you didn't want to go to one anymore!” Bryan stammered, trying to find excuses.“I know I said that, but this is different! I want to see her and find out how she’s doing!” Grandpa Morris insisted.Bryan’s mind raced. He needed a solid excuse to stop his grandfather from going to the hospital, or he would ruin everything.“What are you waiting for? Get the car ready!” Grandpa Morris instructed the driver standing in the corner.He also called for his caregiver to come closer. Bryan knew he had to step in.“You know she comes from a strict family. Her dad is an army general who protects her fiercely!” Bryan lied, but Grandpa Morris believed him.The old man waved the caregiver away, giving Bryan a small sigh of relief.“Tell me more about her dad! Where is she from? What’s her family’s name? She sounds like she comes from a powerful background!” Grandpa Morris leaned in, grinning as if he had won a prize.Bryan started to sweat; he didn’t kno

Elena looked surprised.“We already talked about this, right?” Bryan said, gently touching her from behind, trying to keep up the act.But Elena was confused. She didn’t know who the old man in the wheelchair was, and she didn’t understand why Bryan was suddenly being so nice to her.“Excuse me, I have to go now!” Elena said sharply and quickly walked away.Grandpa Morris laughed. “She’s such a sweet, shy girl. I already like her!”“Go after her, son!” he told Bryan.Bryan apologized to his grandfather and ran after Elena. He wanted to know why she helped him and to thank her for saving him.“Why are you always in such a hurry?” Bryan asked, pulling Elena back as she walked fast down the hallway.“What was that all about? Who is that old man? And why did you tell him we’re... a thing?” Elena shot back with questions.Bryan took a deep breath. He had a lot to ask Elena, but all he could say was, “Thank you for helping me…” He paused, trying to remember her name.“You’re welcome! I hope

But the call ended right away.Bryan stared at his phone in frustration. He couldn’t afford to miss this opportunity. This was his only chance to make his grandfather proud and to save their family business.“What am I going to do now? What if the girl isn’t good enough? What if she can’t handle the questions they’ll ask? They didn’t even send me her name or a picture,” Bryan worried aloud, but no answers came.Just then, his phone buzzed again. “Speak of the devil,” he muttered, before answering the call.“Grandpa! How are you?” Bryan tried to sound calm and steady. He didn’t want to worry the old man.“Bryan, are you ready for the gala? I can’t wait to see my amazing future granddaughter-in-law today!” His grandfather’s voice was cheerful.Bryan stammered, “What do you mean ‘today’? Are you coming to the event?”“I wanted to surprise you! I’m already at the venue. Since you won’t bring her home, I’ll see her at the event with everyone else!”From the way his grandfather spoke, it wa

“Where is your son? And your sister? Why are you alone in a hotel with your luggage instead of them?” the man demanded, raising his voice.Elena ignored him and started heading toward the hotel exit.Immediately the man’s instincts told him he’d been tricked by this woman, so he ran after her.“Not so fast, miss! You lied, didn’t you? How dare you fool me like this? Because of you, I lost a business deal worth millions!” He grabbed her hand firmly and stared her down.“I’m sorry, sir, but I did not lie. I can even take you to the hospital now to prove I’m really pregnant,” Elena said, trying to defend herself. While her stomach growled loudly from hunger, she had to rub her hand on it as if it would stop the noise.But the man wasn’t ready to let go. He held her hand tightly and looked at her like he might hit her.But a voice interrupted them.“Bryan! So this is it? You left me all alone just to be with her…How dare you disrespect me in such a manner!” A beautiful, fair-skinned woma

Elena decided to use a trick.“ Take me to the airport, you need to hurry up, I need to be there in the next twenty minutes!” Elena commanded the driver.“ But ma'am! “ The driver wanted to say something.“ Just move this car!” Elena shouted.When they got to the airport people were already boarding.“ I have to call Mr Carlos!” The driver announced.Elena pretended as if she didn't hear those words from him, while she ran into the airport, it was a big place so it was obvious Carlos won't find her even if he decides to look for her.“ Please, can we switch places? I am pregnant and my sister who stays in Florida just had an accident and my five year old son stays with her! They are in the hospital all by themselves! Please let me go with this craft!” Elena fell down on her knees and pleaded loudly to a strange man.Everyone in the queue had pity on Elena, especially the part that she was pregnant, her sister was at the verge of dying, and the little boy all alone.“ But this trip is
