Aaron slathered soft butter on the surface of the hot muffin, making it melt and shimmer with a sweet aroma throughout the kitchen. Chris who was stirring something in the pot just smiled reproachfully and continued his cooking activities.
They had breakfast in the kitchen facing east, where the morning sun came in and warmed them. Their breakfast menu is great. Honey muffins, peanut and coconut crackers, fantastic-tasting scrambled eggs and a large baking sheet of warm apple pie fresh out of the oven.
It's true what Aaron said. Chris is crazy about cooking. It seemed he was too happy that his master had come and finally there was something he could make special dishes for.
This morning is as beautiful as any other. Laurel didn't realize that they had spent a few days on this beautiful island.
Honeymoon, they say… and that's exactly what happened. They really have fun

“You have to tell me!” Brian was again blocking Lyn's path in the lobby of her apartment.Lyn looked at Brian in annoyance. Brian had been bothering her the last few days. The man appeared everywhere, trying to pry into any secrets that Lyn might be hiding.“I can have the police arrest you if you keep stalking and harassing me like this.”“There's no need to be like that!” Brian sighed in frustration. “I just need an answer.”“Didn't I already answer you? You keep asking why I seduced you that night. I already answered, maybe because I'm in the mood for sex, period! That's all my answer, but you still keep bothering me. What answer do you really want?”“Because your answer is a lie!” Brian glared at Lyn. “Tell me the truth, Lyn, or I'll keep bothering you.”“Fuck, okay!” Lyn half screamed, couldn't take it anymore. “I seduced you because A&

“Laurel.” Aaron gently grabbed Laurel's finger who was walking away. “Please listen to me first.”Laurel looked at Aaron angrily. “Why did you have to bring me into this situation, Aaron? She, the girl seemed to really hate me and seemed to want to get rid of me. She knows that we are married and on our honeymoon, but she still comes and doesn't care about me.”“I'll kick her out, right away. Meanwhile we must restrain ourselves.” Aaron grabbed Laurel's fingers and kissed them. “I hate her presence too, Laurel, hate it more than you, but Clarissa is a cruel woman. I'm afraid that if we're not careful, she'll do something bad to you.”Laurel sighed then took a deep breath. “Yes, Aaron, I'm sorry, maybe I'm too confused by all this.”“I should apologize for putting you in this kind of situation.” Aaron took Laurel in his arms. “We'll deal with her together, okay?&rdquo

“Now it's just the two of us.”Clarissa smiled seductively and plopped down on the soft sofa in the library, then crossed her legs defiantly.“Sit down, Aaron, it's strange that we're talking so far apart,” she invited him who had been standing while leaning on his desk at the end of the room.Aaron's face was cold, not responding to Clarissa's invitation. “Why are you here, Clare, what's your goal?”“Can I not? I miss you, Aaron, miss our times together.”“I'm married and now on my honeymoon. I think that's clear enough for you.”“Whether you're married or not doesn't really matter to me. I'm still willing to be your lover, where you vent your passion,” Clarissa's voice became hoarse and sensual, like an invitation to make love.Aaron narrowed his eyes. His handsome face hardened, holding back anger. “I don't need a lover because I'm already married. I alre

“Actually she was about to leave today, but she fell down the stairs and sprained it. Now she can only go after she can walk. I can't get rid of her now,” Aaron explained when Laurel joined in for breakfast in the dining room half an hour later. “My apologies, Laurel, for this deteriorating situation.”Laurel took a sip of her coffee and tried to smile at him. “It's okay, Aaron, it's very rude to kick a guest who is sick after all.”Aaron stared at Laurel sharply, as if to peel her heart away. “She won't bother you anymore. I told her that I love you and she can't expect anything from me.”And I love you too, Aaron, Laurel muttered to herself. Of course, she still did not dare say it, afraid of his reaction. Her chest felt tight and mixed, so she chose to keep it for now and reveal it later, when she was more certain._______________“I'm sorry I wasn't there this morning when you fell.

Laurel was pensive in her room, still confused about what Clarissa said earlier. The woman said that Aaron always imagined her when making love, always said her name. How could it be? Laurel didn't know Aaron before, did she? Was the Laurel that Aaron imagined was another Laurel? Laurel's heart felt like it was being squeezed. Could it be? Could it be that an impulsive marriage and all this hastily done because Aaron wanted a surrogate for the Laurel he loved? After all, with Laurel, Aaron does not have to bother as much as with Clarissa, because she has the same name. Therefore, Aaron did not need to explain anything and Laurel would not even know she was being used as a substitute. Laurel looked up as Aaron entered the room. He frowned when he saw Laurel sitting dreamily on the bed. “Dear, are you ok? I was waiting for you downstairs for lunch, but you didn't come down.” Laurel's answer was only a heavy sigh, confused whether she should ask

“So she fell down the stairs and sprained it, and then you didn't throw her out and instead took care of her?” Aamber almost screamed on the other end, causing Aaron slightly push his phone away. “Yes, she agreed to go and was about to pack up, when the accident happened.” “Sounds like intentional to me!” Aamber's tone was reproachful. “Are you sure she really went through that? Maybe she's just acting hurt.” “Her leg was really swollen and my doctor looked at her, so she really did have a sprain.” Aaron sighed. “Though I can't guess whether she dropped herself on purpose or not.” “Given Clarissa's nature, she might as well do.” Aamber looked worried. “Then what about you and Laurel?” Aaron smiled reminiscing when Laurel's name was mentioned. Laurel, his Laurel. The woman said she loved him so tenderly. Laurel loves him, for the sake of the angels! It felt like all his weight was lifted and his body became light. This is how it

They landed at the airport and were immediately picked up by Aaron's personal driver. It was midnight when they arrived at his house. The house is still the same, as beautiful as Laurel's memory used to when she first came here at the party, the party that resulted in an incident that led her and Aaron finally unite into marriage.Maybe now Laurel would be grateful for the incident, because now she found happiness with her husband. She suddenly remembered something and looked at Aaron seriously.“That night, the night after our wedding, was our first night. I know because it hurts.”Aaron smiled gently. “I also know because I have to break through a strong barrier before I can enter you.”Laurel's cheeks reddened at his casually vulgar words. “If that night is our first night, it means that at that time we didn't do anything here.”Aaron shrugged. “I don't remember, but maybe we just got drunk and fell asle

“Guests for you, Mr White.”Mrs Joy still calls him Mr White. No problem for him, Aaron smiled, turns out the name was not a problem for Laurel.“I heard you came back from your honeymoon, so I brought Sean here.” Mike stepped inside, as usual, without permission, and sat down on the large sofa in the room.A slender man, dressed in all black, followed in. His gaze scanned the entire room intently, until he met Aaron’s.Sean Bramasta, Aaron thought. This is their second meeting after a brief meeting at a party that time. He chose to come alone to Sean's party that time, and made Mike busy booing Aaaron. Mike briefly introduced him to Sean, but they could not talk more, because Aaron had left in a hurry for other business.“Sean just got back from his honeymoon too,” Mike mumbled as Aaron and Sean just stared at each other stiffly, watching each other.“Honeymoon?

When Aamber visited the next day, she saw the gleam of happiness on Laurel and Aaron's faces, and she was grateful in her heart. These two people were truly happy.Laurel was taking the cake out of the oven and placing it on the kitchen counter to cool it before slicing. The smell of strawberry and coconut cake filled the room. She got the recipe for the cake from Chris when they were on the island and only had time to practice it now.“Looks like you made it. I've tried Chris's recipe and it's a mess, the inside is still raw.” Aamber looked deliciously at the cake and inhale its aroma. “Hm, and it smells really good.”Laurel laughed seeing Aamber who looked like she wanted to taste the cake. “Let it cool first, otherwise your tongue will burn.”“I'll take the risk.” Amber didn't care. She sliced the cake and pushed it onto the plate, then carried the plate while blowing on it.Aaron was holding his daughter wh

They stood side by side in front of the graves of Laurel's parents. Aaron hugged her tightly in the serene silence. After that, without a word, Aaron placed the flower arrangements on her parents' graves.“What did you say to them?” Laurel looked at her husband tenderly as they walked home through the cemetery.Today Aurel turns two months old. Every month they visit the graves of Laurel's parents and lay flowers, praying for them.Aaron smiled and kissed her forehead gently. “Same words, that I apologize and promise to take good care of their daughter.”Laurel hugged him tightly. “You have done that promise very well.”“And I will continue to do so tirelessly,” he replied softly.They walked to their car and continued on their way home in silence. The atmosphere is too serene and beautiful to be broken by conversation.Arriving at home, Laurel went straight to the nursery. She looked at her daughter.

Aaron walked through the burial grounds, which he was very familiar with it. Earlier in the parking lot, he saw Aamber's car there. Therefore, his sister and Laurel really were here.He came here often, laid flowers on Laurel’s parents grave, and then spent hours there apologizing, begging them for forgiveness.His steps stopped when he saw two very familiar figures in the distance. That's Laurel and Aamber. Aaron quickened his pace only to find Aamber screaming in panic while trying to guide Laurel who was limping.“What’s happened?” Aaron asked quickly. Even so, when he saw Laurel's state, he immediately knew what had happened, even before Aamber explained it.“The amniotic fluid is ruptured!” Aamber screamed in panic. “We have to get her to the hospital right away, Aaron!”Aaron was pounding. Laurel was due to give birth soon and they were still here, in the middle of the vast cemetery, which to be had walke

“Don't lift that thing!” Aaron grabbed the small fruit basket that Laurel was carrying deftly. “For God's sake, Laurel, sit down! No need to help anything. Let Aamber and the servants take care of everything.”Standing there and on his hips, Aaron really looked like an arrogant boss who liked to order people, making Laurel's lips pout.“Aaron, I can carry myself! I'm sore because you told me to sit all day.”“You're heavily pregnant and your tiny body is tired of carrying your huge belly!” Aaron looked threateningly. “Sit down, Laurel, or I won't want to massage your feet anymore.”Of course, it's a lie. Aaron never forgot to massage Laurel's feet every night with a gentle essential oil, helping her get rid of her aches from having to carry around her growing womb. He also did not forget to help apply olive oil to his wife's stomach which was getting bigger.Today they are preparing the nu

Aamber came at noon to celebrate Laurel's return. She brought a giant teddy bear and flowers into the house.“I'm sorry I didn't see you at the hospital. I have a phobia of hospitals. Mom sends greetings to you; she had to fly back to Spain. Our aunt's condition is deteriorating and Mom wants to be there to take care of her.” Aamber looked at Laurel's stomach carefully. “Are you and my future nephew okay?”Laurel smiled. Aamber is very straightforward and funny. Laurel could probably be good friends with her. “He is fine.” She rubbed her belly affectionately. “Thank you for the flowers and doll.”“At first I was confused about what to buy. However, without realizing it, I was carrying this big teddy bear out of the shop.” Amber laughed. “By the way, where is Brother?”Laurel glanced at the second floor. “Aaron is taking a shower.”“Oh.” Aamber smiled gen

Laurel was stunned. She turned her head and stared at Aaron in silence. The man was looking down, not looking at her. His gaze lost in his own thoughts. “Do you know how I felt at that time?” Aaron smiled bitterly. “I came with all my arrogance and confidence, feeling powerful and having everything, feeling I could buy someone an apology, but I was wrong. You made me realize that time. When you said that I was a lowly human with no self-respect, hiding behind my father's power, you were absolutely right.” Aaron sighed. “I came home fully aware, like I was slapped to wake.” The man finally looked at Laurel with a look full of pain. “But I'm trying, Laurel, I'm trying so I can stand before you, with dignity. I tried my best. I founded my company as my proof to you. The company did not accept my father's interference at all. I started from scratch. And, yes, I did lie to you. I watched you from the start. Don't get me wrong, Laurel, I have absolutely no ill inte

That morning, as usual, Laurel helped bathe Alin's baby. It had been one week since she had stayed at Alin's house. Her best friend forbade her to leave first and she accepted the offer, considering her condition was not getting better. She always felt nauseous and wanted to throw up all the time. Her head sometimes felt dizzy and her condition had not even improved during the week she lived with Alin. The baby had been bathed and Alin gave him breast milk, while Laurel rearranged the baby's toiletries. As she bent down to put the towel into the laundry basket, a sudden pain shot through her lower abdomen. The excruciating pain made her groan as she clung to the towel rack beside her. “Laurel?” “It really hurts!” Laurel held her stomach that felt like it was being squeezed. The pain is excruciating. Alin placed her full and sleeping baby in the cradle, and then stepped closer to Laurel. “Come on, Laurel, maybe you're too tense and tired. Lie d

The news made Aaron's heart skip a beat. Laurel is pregnant; Laurel is pregnant with his child. They will have a baby together. Aaron immediately drove his car, half-speeding towards Laurel's dorm. He couldn't wait to meet her, make sure his wife and baby-to-be were all right. Whatever happens, he will keep this marriage. The baby further strengthens his reason for fighting to get Laurel back. He hopes that Laurel will at least give him a chance. He parked his car in front of the hostel carefully. Several students passing by on the street turned to look at him, some of them couldn't even take their eyes off him. The hostel is indeed close to the famous campus in this city; so many students pass by with various matters. Aaron is indeed worth seeing twice. His handsomeness is very exotic and flashy, so it attracts people's attention. Today he wore casual jeans and a matching shirt and wore a knitted vest that beautifully wrapped his body.

“You have to eat Laurel.” Aunt Sarah placed a plate of still hot food in front of Laurel. “Let's give it a try even if it's just a few bites.” Laurel glanced at the food on the plate. The food was delicious and, if she weren’t feeling dizzy, the sweet smell would surely make her salivate. However, at that time Laurel felt dizzy and did not want to eat. Nevertheless, she saw Aunt Sarah looking at her expectantly. The woman who is like her mother must have gone to the trouble of cooking this meal for her. Laurel did not want to disappoint her. Just to please Aunt Sarah, she ended up taking the plate and taking a bite of her food. Her stomach, which had not been filled all day, greeted her with an overwhelming feeling of nausea. However, Laurel held it back. She continued to eat the food for up to three bites, and then gave up, staring at Aunt Sarah with an apologetic look. “I am so sorry, Auntie.” Aunt Sarah smiled and nodded understandingly. “I
