" Good Morning! Miss Wordsworth!'

Nolan, Derek's assistant who has now working with Leon for one month, smiles approaching Gwen who just entered the company.

" Good Morning! Mr. Nolan!" She smiles back, gazing at his hand. " Is everything okay?" She asks, frowning.

" Yes. Everything is fine. I am here to notify you that Boss will be late today. You may wait for him in his office."

" Late? Where is he?" She asks since she wasn't notified before.

" Boss has an urgent meeting with one of our clients. Sir Leon said you might wonder, so I told you beforehand. Have a good day!"

He said walking out of the company. Gwen sighs. If she knew she would have spent the day at home. But she is here now. She can't just slack off and return home.

The elevator reaches the 3rd floor, the entire floor is occupied by Derek's office. But, she grunts disappointedly, finding no room for her to stay.

    " You did it, didn't you?"Gwen calmly shows the video to the girl. Her voice is as calm as possible and with no emotion mixed with her tone." So what if it's mine? You did steal the file, didn't you?"Gwen scoffs silently and looks directly into her eyes as if she will pierce through her deepest secrets to learn about the truth." How did you know it was a file that was stolen?" She questions... " In this video, there is no sign of me hiding a file and so far I know, Boss neither Nolan nor Leon has ever mentioned it was a file! Did you guys?" She asks Nolan and Leon. Behind them, Derek is enjoying his wife's cool attitude. Earlier, when she learned about the video, she already guessed who it might be. After spending years with Derek's mother, one thing she becomes an expert on. That is knowing about her surroundings. She can feel people's gaze, their movements to protect herself. And it helped her to know there was one girl who had been checking on her. " What are you talking abo

Mrs Wordsworth has no plan to let them explain their situation. However, things have gotten this far so fast that both Derek and Gwen don't even have a chance to take a proper breath.Of course, what breaks their heart is They've blindly trusted Anusha over them."

I should have built one for myself! Shall we go to the hotel? Don't worry. I will make sure -"" I will drive!" She grabs his keys and gets in the car. " Where are you going?"

Seeing nobody's around, she moves inside the room when Anusha is talking to someone." Send more videos. Once he faces bankruptcy, he will leave that woman and come to me!" Anusha smirks... " He must know only I am the one who he deserves!"" I don't care. He has to return to me. I don't have anything left. He can only help me out. So you must -"Anusha frustratingly turns to get back to her bed, however, a shiver runs through her body when her eyes catch Gwen who is sitting on the couch, resting her head on her hand.

Gwen asks, while trying to get her shoes but fails. She wants to walk around for a bit. It's been difficult for her to handle things herself. She is not having good sleep either. Each time, Derek keeps rubbing her back, her swollen legs, cooking her something delicious -- She is grateful for having such a loving husband and feeling sad for disturbing his sleep.

    After that day, Gwen practically makes herself comfortable living there sometimes on weekends or anything she wants to be with her dearest husband. Derek, trying to be the best husband, of course with flaws, has been doing everything to support her and the pregnancy journey. Sometimes they have arguments, sometimes a bit of misunderstanding or a bit of extra love. But like other couples in love, they have found their lives on the track, next to each other. Time goes fast, within a blink, leaving full gray and white memories with happiness and exhaustion. Pregnancy has never been as easy as it looks in movies and dramas.

Having him around her is like having a therapist who understands her more than anyone. When she becomes busy with her work, he attends the new parents class online, op

    Gwen gently rests her hands on his face, grinning widely. He is literally shaking, his eyes filled with desperation and hopelessness. This is not new for her. Because she was once that desperate, to tell him how much she loves him. But seeing her feelings being reciprocating, she can't help but chuckle a bit. " Thank you!" She whispers, disclosing their distance and looking into his eyes, " I know how it feels. Each time I thought of ending things, I was like this. Because I didn't want to lose this Man I adore so much. Thank you for loving me so much, Derek. So continue to love me like this." Tears drop as she speaks, her thumbs brushing his bearded face. She loves him so much. And now listening to his confession, it makes her relieved. Probably the distance between them that has grown up over time, will finally disappear. Derek smiles widely, like a kid who feels relieved and feels acknowledged after working hard to get something perfect. He wraps his arms around her waist,

    People say when they are in love, everything becomes gray but the person they're in love with. Derek holds the camera up, watching the favorite person through his phone, capturing each and every single moment. He wants to create a whole album of her for old days, when probably both of them will be worn out and have nothing to do. They'll sit on the porch, in a hot summer, reminiscing about their rollercoaster lives. He used to find romantic movies cringe, but now he knows why people become so desperate to love each other. Maybe he isn't some kind of hero, protecting her from evil step mother. But he knows he wants her. Even in silence, he wants her present around him. After seeing her pale complexion on that day when Anusha exposed his secret, he felt like a criminal who killed thousands of innocent people. Since that day, he is scared of hurting her. Not anymore, not even in his death - He says, his heart can't forgive him. " What are you doing?" She asks, kicking her legs

    " These reels are funny! But I don't like pranks." She keeps talking and laughing at the funny reels in her phone while Derek preparing the dinner. " Do you think everyone is happy? They look so perfect and happy. Like novels!" She rests her chin on the table and keeps mumbling, asking questions. Derek glances at her while chopping the vegetables. A few seconds later, Taking out some of strawberries that he put beforehand, he pours a glass of warm milk and takes them to her, " It's life. People are intend to show off their happiness in front of people hiding their own pain. Everyone has their own problems. Not everything is true in social media!" Gwen nods, pouting, " Do you think we will be happy?" She asks, looking at Derek who pauses for a second. He nods, " I will try my best to make you happy!" He smiles. " But I said ' We' Not me!" She looks at him, her expression is serious. " If you are happy, then I am ha-!" " Liar!" Derek frowns narrowly while trying to unders

    His hand slips and reaches to her thigh. Gwen flinches and looks at Derek who is driving home. She thinks he is trying to touch her thigh but instead, he holds her hand and keeps driving. " What do you want to have for dinner?" He asks, " Anything is fine. Can I cook today? It's been a while since I last cooked!" She says, her eyes are on him, admiring. " I would love to. But I think you shouldn't do it today. You will feel sick!" He says, kissing her hand. "I am alright. I don't have any problems with smells." She says, eager to cook. Derek gives a smile and nods, " As you wish!" The night seems to have added the sweetness more. Derek who has been hiding his agony of losing his last parent, seems to have found his home. The warmth of her hand, the scent of her cologne, her voice, her smile, everything feels like eternal experience. He admires her serenity while he is in chaos.
