She couldn't selfishly take away David's right to be a father just because she chose to save her mother by giving up their child.Her three words weren't loud, but they pierced David's ears painfully.David remembered her apology from last night before she fell asleep exhausted, and that tear in the

The woman remained unfazed, raising her chin proudly. "For someone so clean, have you managed to wash off the scent I left on you?"Seeing Nelson's expression darken further, the woman's smile grew more coy. "If you can't wash it off, I don't mind helping you personally. After all, the marks you lef
When the bodyguards brought David back to the hotel, Selina was anxiously waiting at the entrance.Nelson had called her ten minutes earlier, saying David was drunk at a bar and almost got into trouble.He had spoken quickly, as if on a time limit, and hung up before Selina could respond.Selina tri
"Honey..." she pressed her lips together, her voice taut like a frightened rabbit.He looked so scary.Seeing her pitiful reflection in his bloodshot eyes, the fire burning in David's chest grew more intense, sweeping away his last traces of reason.He had done so much, made his feelings so obvious.
Night deepened.In the room, silence flowed like water, so quiet that even the clock's ticking seemed unusually clear.Selina didn't know how long she'd been sitting on the sofa.Thinking about David's earlier display of his old madness, Selina realized that David had been restraining himself all al
She pinched her thigh hard. Spurred by the pain, she finally managed to rush toward the tub, her voice shaking: "David, don't scare me."She reached the tub and tried to pull David up.Her fingers touched the ice-cold water, making her shiver.Pure cold water.She took a deep breath and gritted her
David gave a complex look at the clearly frightened Selina, curved his lips in self-mockery, and turned to leave the bathroom.At the doorway, with his back to her, he said softly, "I'll be right outside. Just call if you need anything."He didn't wait for her response before gently closing the bath
David glanced at the smiling Nicole, then at Daniel, who though still expressionless, seemed less resistant. He smoothly called out "Mom."After Nicole happily acknowledged him, he called Daniel "Dad."Daniel pressed his lips together but managed a gruff response.Watching this "family recognition"
Mainly, he was worried Selina would rush to Meracia to confront people on Josefina's behalf if she knew the truth.Selina caught something off in his response and was about to question him when she suddenly slipped.Fortunately, David quickly caught her, one hand gripping hers, the other supporting
When Nicole's surgery concluded successfully, both Josefina and Nicole were wheeled out to different rooms.Selina and David went to check on Josefina first.Still under anesthesia, she was unconscious, her face pale.Selina stayed until she woke up and confirmed she was okay before finally relaxing
Worried, William had secretly returned to Meracia, only to find she had taken a leave of absence and disappeared.He couldn't search openly, so he quietly hired private investigators.But then his family's successive crises had forced him to abandon the search.Now, by coincidence, Josefina had reap
When Selina gave her that all-knowing look, Josefina became increasingly uncomfortable, wanting to shrink into herself.When David's people first found her, her initial fear was that Selina had discovered her child and would side with William to take the child away.After all, living with her, the c
Even if Josefina's demands were more extreme than Anya's.After a moment's silence, Josefina said, "I need to make a phone call home before deciding."Selina nodded, and Josefina smiled slightly before stepping outside with her phone.After a while, she returned and nodded to Selina, agreeing to get
When Selina learned Anya's true identity, she was shocked.Now she remembered why the name Anya had seemed familiar. Back in Meracia, Anya was the one who had conspired with the agent to set up William against her. Selina couldn't believe that after she left Meracia, Anya had undergone plastic surg
She had no idea David knew about her other identity."I figured it out when I saw Liam and Noah working for you," David answered honestly.He had accidentally discovered Liam and Noah's identities and guessed her identity from their attitude toward her.That's when he realized that getting S's autho
When Selina asked about it, David realized that his mind had been too preoccupied at the hospital earlier to properly hear what Vincent had said.He called Vincent back.Seeing that David was finally back to normal, Vincent couldn't help but ask what had happened earlier.David glanced at Selina and
