"I missed you." The soft voice slipped from his lips.

Regina was moved and hugged him tightly. "I missed you too."

Kevin gently let her go from his embrace. "Mom, Dad missed you too. Now it's Dad's turn to hug you. I know you two miss each other more than I do." Kevin stepped back to make room for Henry.

Regina and Henry faced each other awkwardly. Kevin couldn't stand it and nudged Henry. "Dad, why are you just standing there? Don't be shy. I'm the only one watching."

Henry stepped forward and hugged Regina. Before he could say anything, Regina pushed him away.

Feeling awkward, Regina looked at Henry. "Henry, why are you just standing there?"

Henry stepped forward and hugged Regina. Before he could say anything, Regina pushed him away, whispering, "I'm tired today, I'm not in the mood for acting."

"Huh? Why so brief? Are you embarrassed? I'll close my eyes." Kevin looked at his parents with a smile.

Regina gently stroked his hair. "Why did you come? Are you here for a

    Regina immediately sat up, clutching the blanket tightly. She avoided eye contact with Henry. "Do you have no shame saying such inappropriate things?"Henry chuckled softly, sitting up beside his wife. "Inappropriate? Were you thinking that we would... I mean, not that, but if you're up for it, then—"Regina turned to Henry. "No, I don't want it. Stop teasing me, I'm really tired today."Henry got out of bed. "I've ordered a special drink for you. I'll have them bring it up.""You didn't order wine or any other alcohol, did you? I don't feel like drinking," said Regina."No, it's not alcohol."Henry chatted with someone on the phone to order room service. Regina could hear him clearly."Why did you ask for it to be delivered there?""We can't possibly talk in the dark like this. Something else might happen if we stay here." Henry stepped towards the door.***Regina sat on the couch, sipping the warm drink ordered by Henry. "What is this drink? It tastes strange, but it makes me feel

    "Sorry, I have to go," Regina felt uncomfortable as the tension in the room escalated. She hurriedly made her way out, pulling Henry's hand along, forcing him to follow."Why did you come here? Were you eavesdropping on the conversation and trying to embarrass me on purpose?" Regina snapped irritably. "I can't believe this restaurant has such poor soundproofing."Regina opened the car door. Henry followed her in."Embarrass you? I was actually trying to help you out of an unfavorable situation," Henry retorted, equally angry."I can handle it myself without you interfering!" Regina asserted.Henry sneered, "Oh, really? But from what I saw, you seemed pretty cornered. Hey, my offer still stands. Compared to them, I'll get a more competent team of experts.""You'll probably just use the people you bring as your spies? Then you'll end up ruining what I've already achieved," Regina scoffed, narrowing her eyes."Regina, do you know why you haven't been getting good results all this time? I

    Regina and Henry arrived at the hotel. Kevin was thrilled to hear what Henry had to say. "So, is Mom really coming with us? Isn't she tired from work?" Kevin's excitement was tinged with concern.Regina smiled, "It's fine. Spending time with you is like a break for me."Henry grabbed an extra coat and put it on Kevin. "Dad, this is too much. It's uncomfortable.""You need to wear it. It's really cold out. What if you get sick and can't go to school? You'll be stuck at home all alone. You don't want that, do you?"Kevin pouted but didn't argue, letting Henry help him with the coat. Henry turned to Regina. "You too. Make sure you wear something warm. You're not exactly robust.""I know. I'll grab something from my room and get ready. Let's meet in the lobby in 20 minutes.""20 minutes is too long. How about 10?" Henry suggested."Alright." Regina didn't feel like arguing.***In her room, Regina grabbed her coat. A vibration from her bag caught her attention. Seeing the caller ID, her f

"Evan?""Mr. Evan?" Kevin was equally surprised.Evan smiled. "What a coincidence! Kevin, you need to be more careful next time. Are you hurt?""No, thanks to you, Mr. Evan, I'm fine.""Evan, I am so grateful to you. Are you here with your family?" Regina asked."No, I'm here for work.""What kind of work in a place like this? Are you a ski instructor?" Regina inquired."No, I'm still a teacher, but I have another job as well."Henry approached, glaring at Evan. "What are you doing here? Did you leave me for another man?""Henry, why are you being so rude? Evan just saved Kevin. You should be thanking him," Regina scolded her husband."Regina, don't you find it suspicious that he's here now? He must have planned this!"

Did something happen to Kevin at school?""No. Actually, I wanted us to talk about business. A friend told me you're looking for a partner to collaborate with. I have the skills you need."Regina paused for a moment. "But aren't you a teacher?""Actually, that's not my main job. I work in a company. What if we discuss the details in person? Coincidentally, I'm still in town A.""Alright. Can I choose the location and we meet later for lunch?""Okay, Send me a message when you've chosen the place. See you later," Evan concluded the call.Regina sent a message asking her secretary to make a reservation."Regina Tan, are you going to waste money again by booking reservations for personal matters? Just do it yourself."Regina replied irritably. "This is for business purposes, I'm meeting so

    "Why are they looking at me like that?" Regina wondered as she shopped at a toy store, noticing the curious stares directed her way.Feigning indifference, Regina continued browsing despite her exhaustion. She was determined to buy a toy before heading back to her apartment."Isn't she the woman who had an affair with someone else's husband? I feel so sorry for Henry Jian, who always seems so devoted to his wife.""Shh, keep your voice down. She might sue us. You know what Miss Tan is like."Regina turned toward the two young women gossiping about her. They quickly hurried away, pretending they hadn't said anything.Regina put down the toy she had been holding and reached into her bag for her phone.

I just felt more emotional because of the argument earlier...""Yeah, Mom. I get it. You're not like that anymore, unlike before."Regina gently stroked Kevin's head. "Are you talking about the first time we met or do you have another mother before me?"Kevin tightly sealed his lips, his actions always like this, every time it was mentioned. Regina felt curious, but until when should she wait for this child to speak? Regina asked people to investigate Kevin's background, but found nothing."Mom, why are you and Dad fighting again? Dad seems even angrier than usual this time," Kevin asked, changing the subject."Kevin, no need to think about adult problems. Have you eaten? Want to go to a restaurant?"Kevin shook his head. "You must be tired, Mom. Let's just go to home. If I get hungry, we can order

Regina exclaimed, her face and eyes red with anger.The slap from Regina brought Henry back to his senses slightly. "Regina, you! How dare you slap me!""Henry, I've told you before, I'm not some easy girl who will tolerate your disrespectful behavior!" Regina glared at him sharply. "You can have the room all to yourself, I'll sleep in Kevin's room.""Hey, Regina. What's really going on? Why are you so angry? Shouldn't I be the one angry?" Henry reached for Regina's hand, but was harshly rebuffed."Don't you realize what you've done? Henry, you're a jerk!" Regina lashed out with emotion."Are you daring to insult your husband?!" Henry stared at her sharply.Regina ignored him. She left Henry there and went into Kevin's room. "Kevin, are you asleep? Can mommy sleep here?"Kevin, still half-asleep, made room for Regina. "Yes, mommy can sleep here."Regina lay down.

    "Henry, did you really fire me? Can't you differentiate between personal issues and work?" Reina protested vehemently.Henry gave Reina a cold stare. "This isn't personal, Reina. You violated professionalism by neglecting your duties yesterday. Besides, I want us to end this relationship. I expect you to clear out your belongings from my apartment as well."Reina smiled bitterly. "You just want to discard me when you're bored?

    "You don't need to walk me all the way in," Regina said politely. "No, I can't leave you alone. Besides, I want to meet your child. You might be pushing me away because of your kid, right? If I can get him to like me, you'll accept me too, won't you?" Harlan replied with confidence. Regina looked at him seriously. "Harlan, don't waste your time on me. You deserve someone better. My life is too complicated right now; you might regret it." Harlan smiled gently. "It's okay. I'm ready to face everything. I'd regret it more if I let you go."

    Regina stood silent for a moment, stunned by Kevin's unexpected request. "Kevin, isn't this... I thought you didn't want me and Henry to separate. Why are you suggesting this?" "Because Dad doesn't care about your feelings anymore. I don't want you to endure his betrayal. If Dad has chosen another woman, why can't you be with someone who makes you happy? I just want to see you happy." Regina hugged Kevin tightly. "Kevin, thank you for thinking about me. I'll try to meet someone else, and I promise he will treat you even better than Henry did." Kevin's small arms hugged her back. "You don't need to worry about me, Mom. As long as you find someone you love, I'm okay with whoever it is." Regina smiled and gently brushed Kevin's hair. "Now, let's get you to bed." Kevin nodded and quickly climbed into bed. Regina lay down beside him. Despite her efforts to sle

    Regina clenched her fist as she looked at the photo circulating on the internet. Even though it had been a while, she could still recognize the woman's face. "So, they're back together?"Her phone was swiftly snatched by Rey. "No need to dwell on gossip that distracts you from your work. If you can't concentrate, you might as well not work at all. Luckily, I'm still giving you the chance to work in a leadership position.""I know. I just happened to see the photo." Regina typed something back.Rey placed Regina's phone down. "Should I get rid of that woman? Henry seems happier with her than with you."Regina took a deep breath, trying to calm herself from the onslaught of emotions. "There's no need, Brother. I don't want to meddle in his personal affairs."Rey sneered at her, "Didn't you defy Dad to marry him, and you were so stubborn about refusing to cooperate with me and Dad just because of that man. Has your love faded now?""I don't want to discuss it. Don't you have a client mee

    "Regina will be the CEO of the company, replacing me!" Mr. Tan asserted. "Regina, could you say something to our colleagues?"Regina averted her gaze. She tried to calm her feelings and thoughts. However, a loud voice suddenly erupted. "I didn't give you permission!"The man, none other than Henry, immediately stepped onto the stage and grabbed Regina's hand. "Come with me!"Rey quickly restrained Henry's hand. "Just because you're her husband, does that give you the right to dictate what Regina does?"Henry glared at the man. "You're just an outsider, better stay out of this!""Outsider?" Rey smirked bitterly. "I'm her brother. I have every right to defend my sister.""That's enough!" Mr. Tan halted the debate between the two men. "Henry Jian, release your grip on my daughter."Henry chuckled instead. "Now you're calling her your daughter just because she obeys you? Have you forgotten how you mistreated her?""Don't speak out of turn. I could have security drag you out for causing a

Her assistant turned to face her with a condescending smile. "You! Are you conspiring with them? If Henry finds out, then you--""Mrs. Regina, you should worry about yourself before threatening me. I'm not as naive as you, falling so easily into this game!" Her assistant turned away.

CEO Jian, actually Mr. Jian, contacted me and said that if you want to know who's behind this, you need to meet him." Henry paused for a moment. "Alright, arrange a meeting with Papa immediately!" His assistant pulled the car over to a safe spot and began sending a message to Mr. Jian. *** "So, Henry. Didn't I warn you that bringing that woman into the company would only lead to losses?" Mr. Jian sneered at his son who had just arrived. Henry calmly pulled out a chair. "Did you call me here just to blame Regina? This might not be her fault; for all we know, you could be involved." Mr. Jian stared sharply at him. "Are you accusing your own father? After you watch this recording, will you still trust your wife?" "Is this edited?" Henry refused to believe it.
