In no time, dinner was ready. The three of them gathered together to enjoy the meal. Grace didn't come home because Axel had informed her of Daisy's discharge from the hospital beforehand. Grace was thoughtful and understanding, knowing that Axel and Daisy needed privacy, so she decided to stay at her friend's house for the night. Henry enjoyed the meal immensely. Perhaps it was the best dinner he had ever had, and there would be many more like it in the future. Henry believed this as he saw the tenderness that Axel showed him and Daisy.

After dinner, Henry and Axel played and joked around together, engaging in various games, their laughter filling the house. Daisy observed the scene with fondness and happiness. It wasn't until Henry became tired and exhausted that he lay down on the floor to sleep. Henry had never been happier than today; he played with great enthusiasm and wholeheartedness. Perhaps it was because he now had a father.

    Mom's awake! Henry exclaimed as he accidentally turned around and saw Daisy. At this moment, Daisy was momentarily caught off guard, and upon hearing Henry call her, she jolted awake, feeling somewhat embarrassed, as if she had been caught doing something wrong.Axel also turned to look at Daisy, giving her an affectionate smile. "Still early; why aren't you sleeping longer?"Daisy shook her head and replied, "I didn't want to sleep anymore. Then, she added hesitantly, "I should have been the one preparing breakfast. Why didn't either of you wake me up?""Dad said Mom should get more rest; it's good for the baby's development," Henry quickly explained. "Besides, Dad and Henry can handle breakfast without Mom's help."Daisy looked at Henry, smiling warmly at her son's concern, and then at Axel, appreciating his thoughtfulness and attentiveness."So, what are you two making? Let me lend a hand," Daisy enthusiastically offered, stepping into the kitchen but being stopped by Henry."This

    "Now, what are you thinking? Seeing that Daisy still didn't say anything and showed no signs of admitting her mistake or being afraid of being kicked out of the apartment, the man immediately lost his temper and questioned her. As for Daisy, she knew better than to argue or engage in a confrontation with this man. After all, he was just a cleaning staff member, not someone with the authority to decide matters for Daisy. Therefore, Daisy didn't need to compromise or appease him. "I sincerely apologize. I will discuss the matter with the apartment management to handle it appropriately for you," Daisy said, bowing her head to demonstrate her sincerity. Daisy's simple words were actually a gentle warning to the other party. The man couldn't do much more, as he was sure Daisy was a smart and shrewd woman, not easily intimidated. So he considered himself unlucky, swallowed his anger, and left. However, before the man could leave the apartment, Axel appeared and stopped him. "We will mov

    While Daisy was contemplating the vague image that had just appeared in her mind, Axel spoke up with concern. "What are you thinking, Daisy? You look lost in thought. Do you not like this dish? Axel genuinely cared about Daisy's preferences. If she didn't like the steak, Axel was ready to order something else for her. "No, it's not that," Daisy hurriedly explained when she realized Axel was worried about her. "I'm just enjoying the taste of this dish. It seems very familiar, as if I've had it many times before," Daisy said with uncertainty, and immediately, Axel understood that a part of Daisy's memory had just randomly resurfaced. This made Axel somewhat uneasy, and he knew he needed to prepare himself for what would come after Daisy fully regained her memory. "It might be a memory from your past. Do you remember anything specific? Axel cautiously inquired. Daisy hesitated for a moment and then shook her head. "It was just a fleeting, blurry image, nothing clear," Daisy disappoi

    "Dad, Mom, please don't cry anymore," Henry anxiously requested. "Come here, Henry. Axel regained his composure and asked gently, lifting the little boy up. "Thank you for letting me be your dad, Henry. I'll try to be a really good father," Axel sincerely said. "Henry also thanks Dad Axel very much. I promise to be a good kid," the little boy expressed his determination. The three of them smiled, embraced each other warmly, and felt the warmth of being a family. Then Axel put Henry down. To continue Henry's happiness, Axel suddenly made a proposal. "Henry, would you like to have your own room? Axel asked. He knew Henry would like the idea of having a private space for himself. "Am I allowed, Dad? Henry widened his eyes, looking at Axel as if confirming what he had just heard. "Of course, we have three bedrooms in the house. One will be for Henry," Axel informed, making Henry unable to contain his excitement. He clapped his hands together and cheered with joy. "Awesome! Henry r

    Axel opened the door and was surprised to see Grace standing outside his house. In all honesty, Axel had thought that the person arriving was his assistant. Earlier in the morning, Axel had called John, asking him to come to the house to discuss matters related to the company. "Grace, what are you doing here? Axel wondered. "Hello, Axel," Grace smiled warmly and said, "I came to visit Daisy. I hope you don't mind." "Of course not; please come in. Mentioning Daisy, Axel immediately welcomed Daisy's close friend with a smile. To Axel, Grace was someone deserving of his respect and gratitude. Over time, Grace had taken care of Daisy and provided her with support, becoming a pillar of strength for Daisy in Axel's absence. Following Axel's guidance, Grace hesitantly stepped into the upscale apartment. This was a luxurious condominium for the affluent, so Grace felt somewhat uncomfortable. "You're always welcome here, so just make yourself at home," Axel reminded Grace, and she chuckle

    After John and Grace left the apartment, Axel sat down next to Daisy and inquired, concerned, "Daisy, tell me, what's bothering you?"Daisy moved closer to Axel and nestled herself in his arms. She recounted everything to Axel. After hearing her story, Axel looked thoughtful."Axel, if I had refused your proposal, would Grace have missed out on her happiness?" Daisy questioned doubtfully. She wanted to hear Axel's opinion on the matter."Considering what Grace has revealed, it's quite likely," Axel remarked honestly."I must be a terrible person," Daisy blamed herself."Don't think that way, Daisy, because Grace might not have actually rejected John's proposal." Axel tried to change Daisy's thinking. That was the only way she could feel better. Only then did Daisy begin to feel more cheerful."But she said she would definitely go with me," Daisy emphasized."I said it's not certain; trust me," Axel argued."How can you be so confident about that?" Daisy wondered, feeling perplexed."B

    Amelia swallowed her tension and tried to regain her composure in the face of Axel's hostile attitude. Soon, she managed to regain her calm demeanor."Who's your son, Axel?" Amelia mocked Axel, teasing him. "You're not even married; where would you get a son?""Henry is my son. I won't allow anyone to disrespect the little guy. Even if you're my big sister, there are no exceptions."Amelia, hearing Axel defend an outsider against her, became indignant and visibly irritated, scolding in a stern tone, "You've gone crazy, Axel. Snap out of it quickly, or I'll have you admitted to a mental hospital."Unfazed by Amelia's threats, Axel controlled his temper and said wearily, "If you came here just to spout some high-sounding moral principles and insult my son and wife, please leave immediately. I don't want to see you again.""Are you kicking me out?" Amelia exclaimed in shock, not holding back her accusations. "You've really lost your mind, Axel. Why have you become like this? All because

    The moment of silence allowed John to process the information Axel had just conveyed and gave Axel the opportunity to further contemplate his decision."Axel, why do you think Rosa is the mastermind?" John broke the silence, wanting to understand exactly what basis Axel had for arriving at such a determined and thought-provoking conclusion."Because, when reviewing the events that have unfolded, I recall Rosa's threats," Axel explained to help John understand. "Furthermore, there's a very notable detail, which is the mention of my fiancée in the rumors. As you know, John, my engagement to Rosa has never been publicly announced. Only a few people are aware of it. From this, I deduce that the mastermind, or someone indirectly providing information to unofficial media outlets, is someone I know. And my biggest suspect is Rosa.""Are you absolutely certain about this, Axel? There could be some misunderstanding. Someone hostile to you might have orchestrated this and pinned it on Rosa." Jo

Rosa asked when she saw Mrs. Mia's pale face.Mrs. Mia couldn't say anything when suddenly the police appeared."Rosa Taylor and Mia Wilson, you both are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder. Please come with us," declared the stern police officer."We haven't done anything!" Mrs. Mia immediately denied the accusation, while Rosa was still trying to grasp the situation."What you said has been recorded—enough evidence to charge you both before the law," Amelia arrogantly proclaimed, holding up a recording device for them to see."Please come with us," the police officer requested a second time."I haven't done anything wrong." Mrs. Mia continued to deny the accusation as she was led away by the police.It was only then that Rosa realized she was being arrested. Not wanting to go to jail, Rosa used her strength to push the police officer and run out of the coffee shop. The police officer chased after her, and unfortunately, something terrible happened.

    At that moment, from out of nowhere, an older man appeared, leading his 10-year-old son. They pushed through the crowd in front of the emergency room. As soon as they saw the lifeless body, the man grabbed his son's hand and ran towards it, then hugged the lifeless body and cried out."My wife! How could you leave me and our son so early?"The man's voice trembled as he cried, while the child sobbed loudly. The cries jolted Axel awake, and he raised his blank face to look at the man hugging the lifeless body. The man also looked back at Axel, both wearing expressions of indescribable astonishment."Who are you, and why were you crying for my wife?" A man asked in confusion."What do you mean? Your wife?" Axel's words left the man equally baffled. What was going on here? He suddenly felt disoriented."Mommy, please don't leave me." The voice of a child caught Axel and the man's attention. Upon realizing that the child was not Henry, Axel's confusion deepened. So, that wasn't Daisy. Axe

    "Why would you speak of your mother like that?" Daisy scolded. "It's utterly uncalled for. If your mother heard what you said, she would undoubtedly be heartbroken.""You don't know anything, so just stay quiet," Axel snapped in anger.Daisy was taken aback by Axel's reaction, but she quickly regained control of the situation."It's true; I don't know anything about you," Daisy admitted. "We've never truly understood each other, and our views have never aligned. Anyway, your attitude towards your mother is a matter between you and her, unrelated to mine. Therefore, you don't have to be impatient with me.""My mother is dead," Axel finally revealed, thinking that Daisy didn't understand his earlier statement, leaving Daisy shocked and skeptical."Daisy, you've been deceived." Feeling the tension in the room, Amelia hurriedly explained, "My mother and Axel passed away. Axel was just seven years old at the time, and I was twelve. The woman named Mia is my stepmother, my father's second w

    "Daisy, we can.""Henry, we're going home." Daisy interrupted Axel with an absolute command."I don't want to." Henry stopped chewing and looked directly at Daisy, stubbornly refusing."Why not? What's your reason?" Daisy impatiently demanded."I want to go to Cha Axel's home," Henry honestly admitted."Henry, I've told you," Daisy reminded him, trying to control her emotions. She was on the verge of losing her temper. Meeting Axel had left Daisy confused and her emotions unstable."I don't want to," Henry shouted suddenly, accusing Daisy. "You lied to me. Dad Axel is not too busy with work. You didn't bring me here for the safety of either of us. I don't know why you took me away from Axel's father's house, but you lied to me.”Daisy wasn't surprised that Henry easily discovered her lie. Henry was a smart and perceptive child. Daisy had anticipated this, but she hadn't expected Henry's reaction to be so determined and forceful. Daisy had hurt her son's feelings, and she knew it, but

    "Hello." The person speaking to Axel was a woman. "Are you the guardian of this boy?""Yes, that's right. I'm Henry's father. What happened, and who are you?" Axel tried to stay calm while gathering information about the situation."The boy had an accident and is currently in the hospital. I'm a nurse at the hospital," the woman reported on Henry's condition. "We need the boy's guardian to come here."Hearing about an accident, Axel felt a chill run down his spine, his heart pounding with fear. He was afraid something terrible had happened.“How is my son?” Axel asked nervously."It's nothing serious; the boy has only minor injuries and lost a little blood. His condition has improved now," the nurse reassured Axel.Thankfully, Henry was safe and sound. Axel silently thanked God."Which hospital is he in? I'll come right away," Axel urgently asked, already getting ready to leave."He's in Hospital K, in the town of Suna.""I understand, thank you," Axel requested. "Please pass the phon

    After a while, Axel was engulfed in despair, but suddenly the power of love surged within him. So Axel resolved to take action instead of sitting in self-pity. He also knew he couldn't do it alone, and he had some wonderful friends. Without hesitation, Axel immediately called for help from everyone."John, please help me," Axel choked out over the phone. "I really don't know what to do right now."John was at home, enjoying the weekend with Grace as a loving couple. Today, John decided not to answer any calls, both work-related and personal. However, when the caller was Axel and he kept calling incessantly, John answered the phone."What's wrong, Axel? What's happening? First, calm down," John gently reassured Axel while trying to understand Axel's situation. According to John, whenever Axel called him, it was usually for something very important or urgent."Daisy, she's gone," Axel pleaded in agony. "Help me find her, please.""What happened? Why did Daisy disappear?" John was a bit

    Daisy let out a sigh of relief when the person who arrived was not Axel. It was the doctor in charge of Daisy's treatment and the nurse responsible for monitoring her condition."Daisy, how do you feel?" the doctor asked with concern."My head is still a bit dizzy," Daisy replied honestly, then suddenly remembered something important. She anxiously asked, "How is my child? Is everything okay?""The baby is still safe. Please rest assured," the doctor reassured her. Daisy placed her hand on her belly, gently stroking it. She silently thanked God for protecting the unborn child. Up until now, Daisy had not fully recovered from the shock of Rosa's audacious actions. What would have happened if Rosa had actually pulled the trigger? Daisy might have died, and her unborn child as well. Just thinking about it sent shivers down her spine, instilling fear and anger within her. Daisy was sure that Rosa would have to pay for her actions. She believed that."Where is your husband?" the doctor inq

    Rosa showed her determination as she looked at Daisy with sharp eyes. Suddenly, Daisy wished someone would appear to stop Rosa. But if her wish didn't come true, she would have to face Rosa's madness and danger on her own."Rosa, listen to me: What you're doing is a crime, and you'll go to jail if you kill someone. You should stop before it's too late," Daisy calmly warned Rosa. "If I scream, you'll definitely get caught.""I don't care," Rosa insolently declared. "I just want Axel to suffer for what he did to me. And what will make Axel suffer the most is losing you. Whether you die or disappear, it's the same for me. I'll give you a chance: leave Axel forever, and your life will be spared. But don't play games with me. If you leave and then come back, I'll kill Axel. I promise you that.""You're not allowed to touch Axel," Daisy angrily retorted."That entirely depends on you," Rosa arrogantly said. "If you dare to defy me, continue staying with Axel.
