"This design was your boyfriend's work, wasn't it? It's so unique—and it even matches your bracelet," the clerk said, her sharp gaze locking onto the connection."Why didn't he come with you? Should we hold onto the ring for him to pick up, or are you taking it?" she asked, genuinely curious."I'll take it," I said, grabbing the men's ring and sliding it onto my thumb without hesitation.She blinked in surprise, then smiled. "I have to admit, it actually suits you.""Thanks," I replied flatly, turning to leave with both rings in hand.Not even five minutes after stepping out of the store, I noticed someone trailing me.I caught the guy's reflection in the side mirror of a parked car as I walked past. Acting like I hadn't seen anything, I let him follow. He didn't try to confront me or even come close—he just kept his distance. For two days.It wasn't about money—or me, for that matter. He wasn't looking to hurt me.But why the shadow act?That was his question to answer. So, I

I let out a scream—not because I was scared, but because, well, why not?A car horn blared, and tires screeched as a car swerved into view.The door slammed open, and out stepped the guy Kylian had sent to tail me. His glare locked on the wannabe kidnapper holding me. "Let her go.""Why should I? Who even are you?" My captor's voice cracked like a middle schooler's. I bit my lip to keep from laughing.Kylian's guy wasn't amused. "If you value your life, let her go," he said, dead serious.The wannabe snorted. "Oh, tough guy, huh? Bring it!" He puffed out his chest.I rolled my eyes. This guy couldn't even act his way out of a TikTok skit, let alone a hostage situation.Kylian's man took a step forward, and my "kidnapper" panicked. "One more step and I'll—I'll slit her throat!"Slow applause echoed from behind us.Lena sauntered into view, clapping. "Wow. Five stars. Really thrilling stuff."The kidnapper dropped the act entirely. "Uh... Miss, did I scare you?" he asked, grinn

I was stunned.Lena, ever the doctor, wasn't about to rely on guesswork or theories.She grabbed my hand, her expression soft but resolute. "Rea, you need to move on. Hayden was incredible, but he's gone. Holding on like this isn't good for you—or for him."Her eyes dropped to the ring on my finger. "You and Jace used to go to monastery services, right? You've heard the saying—when someone who's passed is held onto too tightly, they can't find peace or move on."At the end of science lies superstition. I didn't dismiss her words outright; my mom used to tell me the same thing when I was little."Rea, let him go. Live your life—really live it. That's the best way to honor him."It wasn't about not being able to let Hayden go—it was the unanswered questions surrounding his death that refused to leave me alone.For the first time, I felt like Lena didn't get it. I couldn't blame her, though. Anyone else in her position would've thought the same thing—that I was just stuck on Hayden

My heart skipped a beat. "Did someone die?" I asked instinctively."No... It's not that," Wayne replied. I let out a breath of relief.At least no one was dead. That meant it wasn't a catastrophe."All the lights just stopped working," he said.I glanced out the window at the glittering city skyline. "The lights all went out at once?""Yes, everything. It all went dark suddenly. The technicians have already checked—it's not a power outage, the wiring is fine, and the equipment is operational. But there's no lighting effect," Wayne explained, his frustration coming through loud and clear.His words left me equally frustrated. I didn't know much about lighting systems, but I did know one thing: the entire design and post-production of the park's lighting had been Hayden's work.If only he were here.But there were no "if onlys" in life."Are all the lights completely off?" I asked, slipping on my shoes."No, they're... white," Wayne said, catching me mid-step."White?" I repea

I glanced back at the window. The amusement park, once eerie and dead quiet, was now lit up like a dream. Cheers from outside drifted in, muffled but unmistakable."It's back," Wayne muttered, eyes glued to the glowing scene beyond the glass."Ms. Kay, Mr. Johnston, look..." One of the tech guys pointed at the monitor, voice tight.I followed his gaze. The lights on the screen weren't stable anymore. They'd warped into messy, zigzagging streaks."There's still an issue," Wayne said, frowning hard.For a beat, I just stared, heart pounding. Then, without thinking, I bolted for the door. I didn't stop running until I was outside. The noise hit me like a wall—screams, gasps, and excited chatter. A crowd was gathered, all pointing at the lights."There are words up there!" someone shouted.I tilted my head back, and my breath caught. The shifting lights sparked a memory—Hayden's proposal. My chest squeezed as I remembered the streamers, the words floating around me: [Kiki, marry me.

I didn't stop running until I reached the Ferris wheel.Since the park opened, it had become the spot—people called it "The Eye of Seavora.""Get me on it!" I said.Apparently, my name carried enough weight to pause the whole ride. The gondola creaked as it started moving, lifting me up and away from everything below.Down there, Wayne just stood, neck craned, his gaze locked on me as I climbed higher.From the top, the park stretched out like a living postcard. Last time I was up here, Hayden was with me, fiddling with the lights after hours. We didn't just admire the view—we were in our own little bubble, drowning in the bliss of it all.The lights were just as beautiful now. But he wasn't here.Except... no. He was here.The lights earlier—it wasn't random. He was telling me something.When the gondola hit the peak, everything spread out: the park, the glittering skyline of Seavora. But I wasn't here for the view.I was here for him. Just him."Hayden!" I shouted, my voic

"You watched him get cremated, didn't you? It's probably just a coincidence." Without waiting for a response, he ended the call. His gaze drifted back up to the Ferris wheel, where Keira was still at the top.***I stayed up there until the last of the park-goers had left, until the bright lights dimmed and melted into the quiet of the night. Only then did I finally step off the Ferris wheel.Wayne was still waiting, coming over to help me down.His eyes scanned my face, like he was trying to read something I wasn't offering.But I'd left everything up there, spilled out with the view. By the time I was back on the ground, I was just... me again."It's late. Let's go," he said softly.I trailed behind him out of the park, breaking the silence with, "Tell me about Demi.""She's in Lindale. That's all I know. If you want more, you'll have to reach out yourself," he said, careful as always.He pulled out his phone and tapped out a quick message. "Her number and address. Sent.""

Their faces tightened with suspicion. "Who are you?" one asked sharply.It hit me—they didn't recognize me. We'd met before, but that was years ago, and they'd aged since then."I'm... a friend of Desmond's," I lied, keeping my tone light. No way would they tell me anything if I revealed the real reason I was here. "I heard he had a baby and thought I'd check in."Their eyes darted to each other, their unease palpable. "We've never seen you before," one said, voice sharp with doubt. "And Desmond never mentioned a friend like you."Their guardedness made sense—these days, you couldn't be too careful with all the scams and con artists around.I offered a gentle smile as I handed over the small gifts I'd brought. "It's okay. I just wanted to check in and see how you're doing. That's all."But they didn't take them. "We don't know you, and we're not comfortable with this."With that, they turned and walked away.I stayed rooted in place, watching them go. Following them would only

“To put it simply, when I’m with him, my heartbeat isn’t the same. I know what that means. But our relationship is what it is. Even if there’s no blood relation, it’s still not possible,” Lena admitted, finally revealing her feelings. Her ties and concerns all revolved around Aaron’s identity. “What if he could handle everything? Including your parents and grandparents?” Keira pressed further. Lena gave a bitter smile. “And could he stop others from gossiping?” “Are you living for others? Who doesn’t talk about others, and who hasn’t been talked about behind their back?” Keira tried to reason with her. “Rea, humans are social creatures. It’s impossible not to care what others think,” Lena sighed, blowing at her bangs and sending them flying upward. At that moment, Nina ran over, her face brimming with joy. “I found a drawing on a leaf!” She held up a leaf and pointed to it. “Doesn’t this look like a turtle lying down?” She wasn’t wrong—it really did look like a turtle.
Love's Redemption Chapter 962
Keira knew Sasha had no ill intentions, but what about others? In this society, there were very few who genuinely wanted the best for you. Even if they wished you well, they rarely wanted you to do better than them. Had she been too high-profile lately? Did she provoke envy and jealousy? Actually, she hadn’t done anything to promote herself—not even for this little courtyard. But she couldn’t control the guests who came here and spread the word. Maybe the stalker Hayden mentioned showed up because of this. Sasha only left in the afternoon, but Nina refused to go no matter what. She insisted on staying with Keira. Since Keira had already promised to take her out to play, she let her stay. Besides, Nina was well-behaved and not mischievous. Her lively energy brought a unique vitality to the courtyard. When Lena arrived, Nina stood at the entrance and greeted her adorably, “Welcome!” “Oh my, where did this little beauty come from? Is your boss hiring child laborers now?

After Keira's checkup, Hayden returned. The first thing Keira did was look him over from head to toe, relieved to find he hadn’t acquired any new injuries. “Did you get anything out of him?” “He confessed he was broke and was looking to steal some money,” Hayden replied. “That simple?” Lena was skeptical. Keira doubted it too, and judging by Hayden’s expression, he wasn’t convinced either. She looked at him, seeking confirmation. “Do you think that’s all there is to it?” “This man does have a prior record of theft and robbery,” Hayden said. “I let him go but had someone tail him. We’ll investigate further by tracking his contacts.” With that, he took the checkup report from Lena. Lena explained, “It’s nothing serious, just pregnancy-related. Make sure she gets foot massages, soaks her feet, and avoids standing too much.” After the checkup was completed, Keira arranged for Lena to visit them later at the courtyard and left with Hayden. - When they arrived at the courty

“What happened? Did you get into a fight?” That was Keira's first reaction upon seeing Hayden’s injury. Lena glanced at his wound. “Come over and sit down. I’ll take care of it for you.” “It’s nothing,” Hayden brushed off the offer and turned to Keira instead. “You were right. Someone was watching us from the courtyard.” Keira's heart skipped a beat. “What? Did they follow us to the hospital?” “Yes, I caught them. I’ll get to the bottom of this soon.” A cold, menacing glint flashed in Hayden’s eyes—something Keira hadn’t seen in a long time. The fact that he was injured meant whoever had been following them wasn’t ordinary. A shiver ran down Keira's spine. But at least they’d caught the person. “How’s the checkup? Is everything okay?” Despite the situation, Hayden’s first concern was still his wife. Knowing he had just dealt with the stalker, Keira decided not to mention the additional tests Lena had ordered. “It’s fine. With Lena here, what could possibly go wrong?”
Love's Redemption Chapter 959
Aaron had a knack for handling people, never revealing all his cards at once. "I'm pursuing Lil' Lena," he said calmly. Ron's eyes widened, his breath catching in his throat. A few seconds later, he finally reacted, and everything became clear. Lena had asked him to play the role of her boyfriend. Out of respect for her privacy, he hadn’t pried into the reason. Later, he’d asked Hayden, who simply told him to go along with it and not ask too many questions. Now he understood—it was because Aaron was pursuing her. “You’re already aware of my situation with her,” Aaron continued. “This process won’t be smooth, so it’s a good idea for her to use you as a stand-in boyfriend for now.” Ron understood perfectly. His role was to act as a cover, fooling the fake mother-in-law like yesterday while giving Aaron and Lena space to start a secret relationship. This was precisely Aaron’s plan. He wanted Lena to first accept him, to spend time together, and build their connection before
Love's Redemption Chapter 958
This question—"Willing?"—kept echoing in Lena’s mind. It haunted her so much that she spent yet another sleepless night. Her answer was clear: she couldn’t. She knew Aaron had made his move and wouldn’t give up easily. But she simply couldn’t agree. And if she didn’t say yes, there was nothing he could do about it. Besides, she truly saw him as her younger uncle—there was no way she could see him as a boyfriend. “Dr. Lane, not sleeping well lately?” the hospital director asked as soon as he saw her. One glance, and he could tell she looked exhausted. “A bit of insomnia,” Lena admitted honestly. “Is it because you don’t have a boyfriend? Want me to introduce you to a few?” The director, ever so responsible, even took it upon himself to worry about her personal life. Lena glanced at the sparse hair on his head and chuckled. “Director, I’ll find someone myself. No need for you to concern yourself.” Aaron hadn’t gotten an answer from her, nor had he pursued her aggressively

"I've thought about it, and I have a plan. I’ll make them accept it. This is something I need to consider. You don’t have to worry," Aaron said with a tone of responsibility. Lena fell silent. A few seconds later, she replied, "Even if they accept it, I can't... Uncle, I’ve always seen you as my uncle and never felt anything else." Ron’s apartment was on the fifth floor, giving Lena a clear view of his face. His expression was slightly tense as he continued looking up at her. Though she couldn’t see his eyes, she could still feel the depth of emotion in them, and the loneliness he must have felt after being rejected. Lena lowered her gaze, unable to watch any longer. "Uncle, we have such a good relationship, don’t ruin it, please." "Do you know how many years I’ve liked you?" Aaron suddenly asked. Lena’s heart skipped a beat. How many years had he liked her? Did that mean he’d had feelings for her all along? But he had never mentioned it, and she had never sensed it. He
Love's Redemption Chapter 956
"Cough, cough..." Lena started coughing uncontrollably as Ron casually spoke. Even a real son-in-law wouldn’t start calling his girlfriend’s mother "Mom" right away, let alone someone pretending to be one. Lena stared at him blankly, and Ron winked at her with a gesture that seemed to say "Don’t worry." He then turned to speak to Briana on the phone. "Mom, I’ve been with Lena for a few months now. She’s been too shy to introduce me to you because she was afraid you wouldn’t approve of me... Yes, yes, we’re basically an underground couple." Lena rolled her eyes in disbelief. What kind of nonsense was this? She tried to grab his phone, not wanting to hear any more of his fabrication, but Ron dodged and continued speaking to Briana. "Mom, I’m really her boyfriend, not fake... Otherwise, why would she be here with me so late at night, right?" Ron certainly had a way with words, and Lena realized that asking him to pretend to be her boyfriend might be the best decision she’d made
Love's Redemption Chapter 955
Lena took a deep breath. As expected, her mother was not going to let this slide, but she still didn’t give up and continued testing her. "So why is it okay for others but not for me?" Briana scoffed. "If you’re looking for a man ten years older, are you looking for a husband or another father? And if you want someone younger, they’re not even of legal age yet—are you planning to take advantage of them? And what’s with all this talk about uncles or cousins? You want your dad and me to jump into the river?" Lena deflated. If she were to really get together with Aaron, they wouldn’t need to jump into a river—their blood pressure would probably be enough to do them in. "Lena, have you done something that goes against ethics and morals?" As sharp as ever, her mother quickly turned the tables and started questioning her. "What are you talking about? What could I have done? You tell me," Lena denied with all the confidence she could muster. Briana didn’t believe her. "Really? If yo
