Tabitha's POV

As much as I hated Derek, I had to admit that his words made sense.

For my babies, I needed his help.

It had nothing to do with feelings. I just wanted to find a safe place where I could successfully give birth.

I moved again. This time, Derek stressed to me over and over again not to tell anyone. He said caution was the best strategy.

My new house was by the sea. When I stepped out, I could see the blue sea, and behind me was the mountain.

It was such a beautiful place which could relax me and cleanse my mind.

But Dad was no longer around. At sunrise, I could no longer see his busy figure in the courtyard. I missed the way he gently taught me to carve so badly.

He was brought over after he stabilized and was accompanied by paramedics 24/7.

I watched as he lay quietly on the bed. After such a long time, he finally looked better, and his face was utterly calm.

His eyes were gently closed. Those who didn't know would thin

    Tabitha's POVJoanna hugged me tightly. Even though we were the same age, she comforted me like an elder."Tabitha, don't cry. I'm here for you. I'll take care of you, OK? John is already out of danger, and I'm sure he'll be fine. Maybe he'll come around in a few days. Everything will be just fine."I used to believe in that, too. But what happened was like a slap in my face, and fate told me life could only get worse.One wouldn't know how unlucky one could be till things really happened.It was said that every dog had its day, and one wouldn't be unlucky forever. But I couldn't even see the slightest hope!I woke up every day in fear. Perhaps in the next second, someone would tell me Dad was dead.Perhaps something would happen to my babies, or perhaps they would develop poorly.Or perhaps I'd be killed by wolfsbane.I said, my voice trembling, "Joanna, I'm so scared. I'm afraid it's gonna be me and my babies next. I'm not afraid of dea

    Tabitha's POVMy babies were playing freely. Their movements were not very strong, as they were only over four months old.I simply had a vague feeling. It wasn't as strong as in the late stage of pregnancy.I gently stroked my belly, and they gradually calmed down.They had been good these days. I had vomited a lot in the early stages of pregnancy, but now, I didn't feel sick anymore.My babies were so sweet. They didn't wanna see me suffer."It doesn't matter. I just want them to be healthy."Joanna cupped her chin and said, "You're right. I now get it. Health beats everything, including money and power."I sighed, "It's only after you've lost so much that you realize there's nothing better than having your loved ones around and healthy."She said, "Look at you. You're such a glowing, energetic pregnant woman, not to mention you're getting prettier every day. And your babies are both so sweet. I'm so jealous."I joked, which was a

    Tabitha's POVI was both nervous and excited for tomorrow's prenatal check-up.Compared to the last pregnancy, I was more nervous and concerned this time.I'd see the growth of my babies in four dimensions tomorrow. How could I not be excited?I walked into Dad's room as usual.He had been asleep for three months without any signs of waking up.He was with me physically, but his soul had gone somewhere else. It was like he was making a compromise with me.But as long as he was breathing, he was still here with me, and I wasn't some homeless kid.After wiping his body as usual, I took a book, read for a few minutes, and then started talking to him."Dad, I'll know the babies' gender tomorrow. If you can hear me, come around, OK? I want you to be there with me for every happy moment."I'm due in a few months. I've got all those toys you made stored away for the babies to play with. They're gonna love them."I said a lot. When I tu

    Tabitha's POVIt took us a long time before we finally saw the baby's face. Apparently, its features were more delicate compared to those of the other one."Tabitha, she looks exactly like you. How nice! You're having a baby boy and a baby girl."I kept wiping my tears. "The gender doesn't matter. I just want to see them healthy.""Don't worry. They're both developing perfectly. I don't see any abnormalities at all. And I'm sure you can tell that they have different personalities, one being calm and the other being active. I'll export the video and send it to your phone later, so you can watch it whenever you want."I nodded and said, "Thanks, Doctor.""Don't say that. It's what I should do. Relax, Tabitha. You'll get to meet them soon.""OK." After going through all the checks, I felt much relieved.I showed Joanna the video, and she said happily, "Gosh! What a pair of cutie pies! I look forward so much to the day they're born."I stroke

    Tabitha's POVEarly in the morning, I woke up from a nightmare.The awful dream was still fresh in my mind, and I could feel the sweat dripping down my back.These days, I had been having a peaceful mind. This was the first time I had such a horrifying dream.After taking a few deep breaths, I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash myself.Standing under the shower, I placed my hand on my bulging belly, feeling my pups kicking me. I guessed they both loved shower time, as they were always quite active when I was in here.The water wasn't too hot, just gentle droplets splashing on my body.Weird enough, most pregnant women ended up with rough skin and more hair on their faces, but my skin remained fine and smooth.I stroked my belly, soothing the babies inside me with a smile. Having them around just gave me hope for brighter days ahead.As soon as I stepped out of the bathroom, my spirits drooped—the empty room was deadly s

    Tabitha's POVIn the past couple of days, Joanna had been noticeably more excited. She was never a fan of skincare, yet now, she even started putting on face masks.Obviously, her Prince Charming meant the world to her.Anyone in this house could tell she looked so forward to the upcoming short meet-up.Finally, it was the big day. She looked thrilled but also kinda fidgety."Tabitha, this outfit looks a bit cheugy, doesn't it? Will he think of me as a hillbilly?"I wanted to lend her some of my clothes, but even the cheapest ones cost at least tens of thousands of dollars.Since they might develop a romantic relationship, I hoped Joanna would show her true self so things wouldn't get complicated between them."Not at all! If he really likes you, even if you're wearing a potato sack, he'll still think you look amazing. Chill, girl. Just take it easy and go pick him up confidently. You don't have to be stressed out," I reassured her.Then

    Tabitha's POVBefore they kicked the door open, I opened it.Standing at the doorway, I saw Spike with one of his cheeks red and another guard rushing over to protect me.As Derek's subordinates, they were just like him—cold, silent, and low-key.They never stirred up trouble or threw their weight around.Since their job was to protect me, they had been patient and tolerant from the very beginning, lest drawing any attention.But even so, the lady and her guards weren't backing down. Instead, they went so far as to slap Spike.I assumed she was the so-called Miss Gutierrez. Her face seemed unfamiliar, and her accent didn't sound very Seattle to me. She was decked out in luxury brands, looking like a walking fashion show. A typical spoiled girl.Before I could say anything, she sized me up and finally fixed her gaze on my belly."I thought some big shot was inside. Turns out it's just a pregnant woman."With a snort, she pulled

But at the last minute, Derek swooped in and took me away.I didn't even get to say I was sorry before leaving.After I was brought back to Seattle, my number got changed, so I couldn't reach Klein, let alone apologize to him.I never expected to run into him here.Didn't he return to his home country? Why was he back in Seattle?Unlike me, who was feeling incredibly sorry, Klein seemed pretty chill.Instead of being upset, he just gave me a gentle smile and nodded as if to say hi.Ivonne, who had been cursing me the whole time, suddenly realized I wasn't even glancing her way.She grew even angrier, yelling to draw my attention, "Hey!

    Third person's POVDerek's face contorted with pain as he continued, "After Tabitha faked her death, I suspected what had happened. I was torn at the time, wanting to bring her back, but I also understood that doing so would only repeat past mistakes. So, I protected her within my control and waited silently. Gloria, I swear, I won't hurt her again."A hint of pleading appeared on Derek's face as he went on, "I'm asking for your help not out of selfishness. Tabitha's illness isn't fully healed, her body hasn't recovered, and with two children in tow, she wouldn't be able to protect herself if danger arises."Gloria had never seen Derek so humble.She remembered how Derek had always approached her with a condescending attitude four years ago.Derek continued, "You are Tabitha's friend, and your starting point should be considering her safety, right? If I wanted to harm her, I could just bring her back directly, so why would I go through the trouble

    Third person's POVThe two children were a blend of their parents. The girl resembled Derek, while the boy took after Tabitha, which was quite different from their brother, Kyrian.Derek thought to himself that if Kyrian knew he had two younger siblings, he would be thrilled.But when he considered his relationship with Tabitha, he sighed deeply, filled with regret for his past actions.At that moment, Alvin approached swiftly and reported, "Just received news from the island. Noah is taking Ayla away, and Lucian's direction also leads to the island. He plans to take Tabitha away."Derek, with his hands behind his back and a furrowed brow, spoke with a melancholic expression, "Lucian intends to take more than just Ayla—Tabitha as well. She has always sought opportunities to leave me, and this presents her with an excellent chance.""What should we do? Should we stop him now? Otherwise, with his capabilities, if he truly takes Tabitha a

Tabitha's original goal had been to find her two children and Jasper.The children were found, but Jasper was without a trace.However, she couldn't search aimlessly without a target.Thinking of Derek's anxious appearance last night, it was clear he still had feelings for her.Gloria's text warning Tabitha to be careful of Derek came to Tabitha's mind again.Tabitha felt she had overlooked some subtle details. What exactly had she missed?It seemed a key point was missing, and once found, it would connect all the events."I don't know. I just wanted to find the children, but I didn't expect to court death. And Derek's attitude towards me is ambiguous. Outside this cabin, I don't know what awaits me," Tabitha said, her face full of entanglement.Seeing her struggle, Lucian took a big gulp of mineral water and mustered the courage to say, "Have you severed ties with him?"Tabitha nodded,

    Third person's POVDerek had painstakingly built up Tabitha's trust by posing as Wilmot.He knew that if she ever discovered his true identity, her anger would be immense, and the trust he had spent half a year constructing would crumble entirely.Derek continued, "Send someone to discreetly protect her without revealing themselves. Ayla is still on the island. Tabitha will go to see her."Rolf nodded in agreement, "Understood."Derek added with caution, "Remember, Lucian has a strong ability to detect surveillance, so do not get too close."Rolf responded, "Yes, Alpha Derek. We will handle it immediately."Turning to Alvin, Derek instructed, "Investigate the identities of those deceased men thoroughly."Derek pondered whether Tabitha's survival had been leaked, perhaps when she was seen on the boat.The assailants had been ruthless, and if not for Lucian's timely arrival, Tabitha could have been in grave danger. He had

She couldn't fathom why he would contact her at this juncture.She couldn't help but feel puzzled.Tabitha inquired, "What's wrong?"Forrest replied, "Wilmot's had an accident. You need to come see him."Tabitha was still trying to make sense of Derek's appearance at the bar when she heard about Wilmot's predicament, and her heart immediately filled with worry.She quickly asked, "What happened to him?"Forrest explained, "Wilmot was already ill recently, and he drank a lot tonight. He's suffered from alcohol poisoning and has been taken to the hospital. He keeps asking to see you, Ms. Hartley. Where are you? Can you come to see him?"Tabitha thought to herself that even if she knew her current location, she couldn't just tell anyone.

Was he a friend or foe?The man removed his hat, revealing the distinctive totem mask beneath.Tabitha stared in disbelief and uttered, "Lucian, why are you here?""Long story. Come with me," Lucian said, grabbing Tabitha's hand and leading her away.They didn't get far before Tabitha glanced back to see Derek and Leopold rushing out of a bar together.Surprise washed over Tabitha. How could Derek be here?Her blood seemed to freeze. 'When did he return?'Lucian pulled Tabitha into a dilapidated black car that passed right in front of Derek.Leaning against the car window, Tabitha gazed at Derek, lost in thought.'If Leopold had arranged to

    Third person's POVLeopold carefully compared the photos. Although the person in the photos was dressed differently and had a different appearance, the body shape and the action of holding things with the left hand were identical.Derek became alert, thinking to himself, "People like us are more sensitive than ordinary people. Such photos wouldn't catch the attention of most, but I've noticed something.""Where's the negative?" Derek asked."I'll have it sent over right away," Leopold replied."And Tabitha?" Derek inquired again."Don't worry, she followed me to the bar. She's in the lobby outside. I have my bodyguards keeping an eye on her," Leopold said.Tabitha had been following Leopold for several days, and Derek, concerned about his own people being exposed, asked Leopold's men to watch her.She maintained a simple daily routine without any issues.However, the photos now revealed to Derek that someone was tracking

Gloria, who had recently suffered a miscarriage, had been recuperating in Leopold's home, not venturing out.A tight-lipped woman handled the daily tasks of shopping, cooking, and cleaning.Despite Tabitha's attempts to get close to her, she couldn't extract any information.As a week passed, it had been half a month since Gloria's miscarriage, and by her nature, she should soon be able to go out.On the sixth day of tracking Leopold, he called Derek out for drinks.He rubbed his temple, looking troubled, "Your mate, doesn't she think she's disguising herself well?"With that, Leopold threw out a stack of photos, all of which were taken while Tabitha was following him.Tabitha's curious little head appeared adorable in the photos."Or do you think I'm so idle that I play house with her every day?"

Don't worry, whoever harmed our child will never see the sun again. Be good, take care of yourself, and don't think about anything else," he said.Gloria's face was devoid of any color, her back already soaked with cold sweat, chilling her. Cold sweat also beaded on her forehead, trickling down her cheeks.Her body trembled, filled with fear and despair, unsure of how to face this mad and cruel man.As a mother who had experienced the pain of losing a child twice, Tabitha was heartbroken and worried when she learned about what had happened to Gloria.Given Gloria's character, if her relationship with Leopold was normal, she would have informed Tabitha even if she had lost the child.Her silence largely indicated that her relationship with
