"What the hell are you doing?" Lydia yelled as several men were in her house, seemingly threatening her mother and little brother.

"Oh, you finally came." One man sat on a single sofa.

Lydia looked around at the chaos in her house. Shards of glass were scattered across the floor and several items looked broken, not to mention several men dressed in black who were scattered in various parts of the small house.

"Oh my God, what's going on?" Erika's surprised voice brought Lydia's focus back to the person sitting on the single sofa.

"What do you want?" asked Lydia trying to suppress her fear.

"To collect a debt, of course, my dear."

The man who had been sitting was now standing next to Lydia, holding her pointed chin with two fingers. Naturally, Lydia quickly brushed the impertinent hand away. She didn't want to be touched by people like that.

"I have paid the debt in full." Lydia whispered, not wanting her

    Lydia stood in front of her office building and stared up at the five-story building. The office building itself wasn't very big, but the food factory behind it was quite spacious. Linder was indeed the most famous producer of packaged food. Their factories were everywhere, and the place where Lydia worked was the center of it. The five-story building was probably where the company was founded, so the Reino family was reluctant to move it. The same goes for the bakery behind it. It may be in town, but they run the factory well. There were no complaints from the neighbors or the government. The problem now was that Lydia was suspicious of the owner and manager of this company. She suspected that the people who came to her house yesterday were Reino Andersen's. Although there was no proof, Lydia suspected him. "There's no way I'm going to ask him." Lydia muttered as she entered the office. All the way to her room on the third floor, Lydia kept thinking of ways to corner Reino.

    Lydia's eyes glanced briefly at Reino as she organized her things. Only briefly, because Reino seemed to be looking at her as well. And that obviously made Lydia very uncomfortable."Calm down Lyd. You have to calm down. He can't do anything in the office. You can scream if he screws up." She tried to calm herself.Organizing her hefty belongings seemed to take a lot of time. Apart from the fact that there were a lot of things, Lydia was also uncomfortable with Reino staring at her. Besides, that look felt like it could put a hole in her head. "I've finished cleaning the desk, sir." Lydia reported to Reino. She did it to ask for a job."Sleep with me.""No." Lydia replied briefly, concisely, and clearly."Why?""I'm here to work, sir.""I'll pay you for it.""I'm not a hired girl." "Then what do I have to do to get you to do it? Do we have to reconcile? Do you want to go on a date? Like a real couple?" asked Reino, looking a littl

    "So this is the boss?" The man in front of Lydia was now interested in Reino. "Is something wrong with my employee?" asked Reino with a cold expression as he approached the man. Not only was he annoyed that there was a commotion in his office, but Reino was also very angry. Angry that someone had dared to touch his property. Yes, his. Lydia had not yet accepted his offer, but Reino was sure she would. Just like their last marriage contract. Reino didn't know and didn't want to know Lydia's reasons for accepting, but it was clearly accepted. Therefore, with high confidence, Reino will help the woman. For the sake of a smooth contract in the future. "Of course there's a problem," replied the bald man who had been talking. Reino assumed he was the leader. "I have come to collect a debt." "Can you please not talk about it here? I paid it, not even a week ago." Lydia hissed angrily. She was even angri

    "Because you're in debt?" asked Thalita with a scornful look in her eyes as Lydia left Reino's room to use the bathroom. "Is that why you sold yourself to Mr. Reino?" Lydia didn't answer right away, just exhaled tiredly. She wasn't in the mood to argue because she was tired. Tired because of the workload, which turned out to be quite a lot, and because Reino kept looking at her. But apparently Thalita continued to provoke. "What does Mr. Reino see in a cheap woman like you? There are no curves." "It's still better to have no curves than many curves, but cheap. Cheap because they're flaunted everywhere for everyone to see for free." Lydia replied irritably. "You." Thalita, who had been sitting, stood up and pointed at Lydia's face. "You can gossip about me all you want, but people have an eye for what's cheap and what's not." Lydia looked Thalita up and down, then laughed out loud. "Hot girls aren't always naughty, and pious girls like you aren't always really pious. I'm su

    "Damn impotent man!" It felt like not even 10 minutes had passed, but the woman Reino had brought had already come out with an angry face. Even the door to her boss's room was targeted. The flirtatious woman, also known as Thalita, confidently began to brush her lips quickly, then straightened her clothes and sprayed herself with perfume. It all happened so fast that Lydia thought the annoying flirt was not human. "Where are you going?" asked Lydia confusedly as Thalita pulled the doorknob to Reino's room. "To see Mr. Reino, of course. You, who don't know anything, better stay out of it." Thalita snarled with piercing eyes. Lydia didn't need an explanation. She could already guess that Thalita was going to offer her body, since it seemed that the woman had failed to satisfy Polar Bear. "You have fifteen minutes. Mr. Reino has another meeting in 30 minutes." Lydia exclaimed, not caring about Thalita's scowl. But apparently Polar Bear wasn't in the mood for any exercise thi

    "I have good news for you," Reino murmured from his desk with a broad smile. Lydia's brow furrowed at the sight of her smiling boss. Reino Andersen, who never smiled, walked into her office this morning smiling. Thalita was shocked, not to mention Lydia. "May I know what good news Mr. Reino is referring to?" Lydia force herself to smile. "I took care of the people who were bothering you yesterday." Reino replied smugly. The smile on Lydia's face instantly disappeared. The young woman's brow furrowed as she tried to digest the absurd words of her superior. "What does that mean?" "I beat them up and paid your debt." Reino replied, still in a very good mood. Normally, he would have cursed if someone had asked him such a question. Lydia took as many breaths as she could with her eyes closed. So this was the reason why Reino was working with those loan sharks? So he could get into debt with that damned polar bear and then ask for her skinny body as payment? How petty. "

    "Damn it." Reino swore in a loud voice. Of course Reino Andersen was very angry. Not just angry, but his ego was really bruised. Being rejected so often had hurt his pride. But Reino was still a gentleman. He never forced women to sleep with him. Although sometimes it's the women who force him. He punched the wall, which was very close to the glass window in front of him. The blow was so hard that the glass seemed to shake. The wallpaper on the stone wall was damaged and stained with blood. While Reino went berserk, using the wall as a punching bag, Lydia, who had left the room slowly and with a pale face, immediately ran to the bathroom. She entered one of the stalls and locked it before sitting on the seat cover. The woman's breathing was still ragged, as was her heartbeat. Lydia had one hand over her mouth and the other pressed against her chest. Both hands were shaking. She was terrified. "Oh, God!" She muttered hoarsely. "What just happened?" she asked herself in a

    "I must be crazy to be attracted to a body like that," Reino growled in frustration. "Mr. Reino needs something?" Reino immediately looked up at the owner of the voice. The woman who had been his assistant for a few days was looking at him with a serious face. Since yesterday, Lydia had not smiled. Not even a forced smile. "I need to make love." Reino replied too honestly, causing Lydia to raise both eyebrows. "I'll get Thalita." Lydia replied after controlling her expression and emotions. "I can't have sex with her. She's so annoying anyway. I don't want to be with her if I don't have to," Reino hissed with his head down. Reino's head was throbbing. None of his work had been done today. And all because of his new assistant. If only Lydia hadn't rejected him again, Reino was sure his work wouldn't have been a mess. Because one of the things that contributed to his headaches was that he didn't have an outlet. And that's normal for men who are active in bed, especially if i

    "Amadeus Andersen?" Kenzo said his second nephew's name with both eyes blinking. "Do you want your children to be musicians?"Reino's second child, a boy, had just been born and again Reino was just thinking about names. As a result, it made Lydia upset. Fortunately, the name Reino gave her was quite good. Amadeus. Taken from the name of the world famous composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. With the name of the first child named Melody, of course people will think that Reino wants his child to become a musician. "No, I don't. I just want my children to have names with the same theme." Reino explained casually. "Because the first one is already related to music, so the second one should be too." "But at least please don't make up names out of the blue." Lydia admonished for the umpteenth time. "I'm annoyed that the name I had prepared didn't end up being used." "We could use it as a middle name." Reino gave an idea. "That's not possible. The deed is being processed. Besides, I don't

    "Congratulations on your second pregnancy. The fetus is almost four weeks old." Lydia gaped at what the doctor had just said. Really, she didn't expect to hear a sentence like that at all because she didn't want to add another baby yet. It wasn't that Lydia didn't want more children, but the plan was later. Maybe after Melody was more than a year old or even after her daughter was three years old. However, that was no longer possible. At the age of six months, Lydia was already pregnant again. "Thats why I always remind you?" Lydia chided her husband as they sat in the car. "Wear a safety rubber. What's so hard about that?" "They say breastfeeding is natural birth control, right?" asked Reino timidly. "So I thought there was no problem." "Yes, but there are conditions too and there is a lot." Lydia scolded her husband even more. "It's already happened. We can only accept it." Reino said the final sentence. Lydia sighed softly. Indeed, there was nothing that could be done anymor

    Time flies. After a quick name search, the twins, named Meyer and Meidi, are now five months old. Only one month and two days different from their niece, Melody. The names of the three of them are even similar, even the faces are somewhat similar. No wonder the three of them are sometimes mistaken for twins. "How cute they are." Kenzo squealed with delight when his sister and niece got together and played together. "If you like babies so much, why don't you get married and have your own children?" Lydia shook her head at her brother's behavior. Today, Lydia visited her mother's house. It happened that she hadn't visited for a while because she was busy and had just recovered from an illness. The children were left to play on the floor that had been covered with thick carpet. The nannies and housekeepers also stand guard around the children. "I like babies, but I'm too young to get married. Besides, I just started working. I have to make a lot of money first and then get married.

    "How?" Lydia ran to her brother who was standing in front of the operating room. Liani had already arranged which hospital she would be referred to when she gave birth. It is located between her house and Lydia's house. This was deliberately done to make it easier for everyone. The same hospital that Lydia used to go to. Lydia had even breastfed Melody for a while, before leaving her baby with Clarissa. Fortunately, the baby was calm and not too fussy, so Lydia and Reino could immediately go to the hospital. "Mom is still inside. She just came in about fifteen minutes ago because she was checked first." Kenzo explained frantically. "It's okay. You don't have to be so panicky. Mom's just in labor." Lydia rubbed her brother's arm. "Yeah, but... you're going to have to cut open your belly to get the two child out. That's still scary." Kenzo shuddered at the thought. "How will you accompany your wife in labor if you're that weak?" asked Reino as he shook his head. Just as Reino fin

    "How does it feel to be a mom?" Erika asked Lydia that question. "It's amazing," replied the woman who had just given birth a few weeks ago. "It's actually quite fun." "Pretty fun?" asked Cinta with bulging eyes. "Doesn't your daughter ever wake up in the middle of the night? Doesn't she get fussy every time?""Fussy." Lydia nodded slowly, looking at her sleeping daughter. "But there's a lot of help." "Yeah, the power of money. There's a nanny." Vanessa rolled her eyes in amusement. Lydia laughed quite loudly. What Vanessa said was not wrong. Reino did hire a nanny to help Lydia take care of Melody. There was also a kind mother-in-law who was willing to help and Reino was also quite alert. It can be said that Lydia's life is really comfortable. She really only breastfeeds her daughter and helps dress her. The rest will be done by the nanny or mother-in-law. "If you're overwhelmed, try getting a nanny. Having two babies is definitely more hassle." Lydia advised Cinta. "No, I won

    "I'm scared." Lydia looked like she was about to cry when she said that. "There's no need to be afraid. You'll be fine." Reino kissed his wife who had changed into a sterile surgical robe. Yep. Today, the pregnant woman would finally give birth by cesarean section using the ERACS method. It is a type of surgery that can make Lydia not need to stay long in the hospital because the recovery is faster. Actually Lydia wanted to try normal, but she couldn't do that. The size of the baby was too big, while her pelvis was rather small. The baby weighed more than three point five kilos. This made it difficult for Lydia to walk during the final trimester."You don't have to be afraid." Lydia's mother-in-law calmed her daughter-in-law. "Times are modern and medical devices are advanced. Everything will be safe." "I'll be by your side too." Reino stroked his wife's arm, which was getting fatter as the baby grew. Lydia could only nod. She also just gave in when she was taken to the operating

    "Oh, God! What happen?" Liani looked panicked when she saw her daughter arrive at their old house. "What's wrong mom?" Lydia quickly put her bag on the sofa and sat next to her mother with a worried look on her face. "Your mama had a little spot." It was Mr. Hadi who finally explained his future wife's condition. "So we went to the doctor because Liani was a bit worried and it turned out ...." "There are two fetal pouches." Liani continued, cutting off her husband-to-be's sentence. "Huh?" Reino and Lydia muttered together. "Looks like twins." Hadi answered again. "Sorry, Lyd. I really didn't mean it. You said you only wanted one siblings, but it ended up being two. I'm worried about you." Liani was getting more and more panicked. Honestly, Lydia was in shock. She didn't expect to get two younger siblings and wanted to protest, but what else could she do? It had happened and she couldn't blame her mom. Liani obviously couldn't control things like that. "It's okay, Mom." Lydia

    After undergoing an examination, it turned out that Liani was really pregnant. It had only been about a month, but it made her anxious. Not only was she worried that she would be exhausted on the wedding day, but she was also worried about Lydia and Kenzo. After all, their opinions mattered. "Wow." Kenzo squealed with delight at the news. "I'm going to have a little brother? Really?" Liani was happy to see that her youngest son was enthusiastic about the news. This meant that Lydia was now the only one left. "Just don't have too many. I'll tolerate one." In the end, that was all Lydia could say to her mother, albeit with an unwilling look. A sigh of relief was immediately heard when Liani heard her daughter's words. At least now there was nothing weighing on her mind, other than giving birth at her age. "Thank you for giving Mama one more chance." Liani whispered, hugging her daughter's arm, which was getting fatter. "I don't know what to do. It's already happened." That was a

    Lydia gave Mr. Hadi a sharp look. The pregnant woman had been like that for a few minutes now and it made Mr. Hadi feel awkward. Even Reino was a bit taken aback. "Sorry, ma'am. Why you call me of a sudden?" asked Hadi, feeling like he had been standing in front of his two bosses for too long. "Are you tired of living?" Lydia asked with a stern tone. "Of course I still want to live because I'm getting married soon." Hadi replied without thinking. "Yes, it is. You're about to getting married, so why make my mom pregnant out of wedlock?" Lydia scolded in the same irritated tone. "Oh? Did Liani take a test?" asked Hadi without feeling guilty at all. "Wait a minute." Reino suddenly interrupted. "What do you mean Liani is pregnant?" He asked with bulging eyes. "You mean you're going to have another brother or maybe sister?" Reino asked again after his wife nodded. "Hadi's child?" Reino's voice grew bigger and bigger. He was extremely shocked at the news he had just heard and
