"Is my father coming by today?" Helena asked, leaning back to comfort herself. The car that took her to her destination was already moving at a steady pace. As Dr. Adi had requested, Helena needed to check her condition so that it would be easier to track her health and progress.It had been three days since she fainted and found out there was a new life growing inside her. During that time, Helena thought things through and started to plan.Did she think to tell her ex-husband? Absolutely not. Why should Arslan be the first to know about her pregnancy? Helena was pretty sure he was already tied up with his new girlfriend. All that had happened on the day of her expulsion was enough to make Helena realize that that idea was a bad one."Nothing," Wilna replied, a little hesitantly. She was also a little surprised to hear Helena's question on the phone. "I'll check with Mr. Hanry's secretary first.”"What's up?" said Wilna.“I’d like to stop by and see you.” Helena looked down at the st
“You need to take care of your health more than ever, Helena,” Adi warned. He was aware that the youngest daughter of the Edison family often disregarded her health issues. Although he hadn't seen Helena much in the past three years, Dr. Adi hadn't forgotten her complaints about her body condition."I'm not a child anymore," Helena said, looking a little annoyed. "You're just like your father. Chatty."Adi let out a chuckle. "I'm sure your father is pleased with this news.""You're right." Helena smiled broadly. "I'll let him know this weekend. Let's go, Dr. Adi. I'd love it if you could all come and have dinner together."The middle-aged man nodded right away. “I hope I can find the time.”"Thanks." Helena was ready to head out of Adi's spacious and comfortable office. The gynecological exam was thorough today, and Helena was happy with the results. If she keeps up her intake and doesn't get too tired, there's nothing to worry about. That was Doctor Adi's advice during the exam.“You
Michael was taken aback. He quickly scanned the lobby and its surroundings. His legs felt tired. He knew he needed to work out more to build up his stamina for this. But for now, he didn't really have time to think about it. Michael needed to find Helena. He wasn't sure what he was going to talk to her about, but at least he knew where Helena was.What a pain in the neck his father is! He should have told him from the start what he was doing around the Tan family!"Oh, no!" Michael gave his hair a quick shake, annoyed. As he looked around, he couldn't see any sign of the woman with the bright brown eyes, even though the area seemed big and empty. "It's not like she could have just disappeared without a trace, right?"He let out a long sigh."Doctor," said one of the nurses who happened to be in the same corridor as Michael. "What's the problem?"Michael gave a little smile. He quickly pushed Helena out of his mind. "Nothing, thanks." "I just needed to get some fresh air."“I see.” The
"I heard there's an important meeting today." Mirna asked her son, who was eating breakfast, if he knew anything about it. She was joined by her future daughter-in-law, who has been staying at her house more often to prepare for their wedding, which is just days away. Mirna didn't mind. In fact, she felt lucky and wanted to get the wedding over with as soon as possible.Mirna was able to keep her head up thanks to her relationship with Jacob's family, which was quite influential. She was quick to point out how lucky her son, Arslan, was to have a wife like Tiara. She didn't address the many questions about the woman who was previously with Arslan. "She'll only hold my son back as long as you know. "So why keep him on?"That's what Mirna said every time someone asked. But now she's not worried about that. She just wants to make Tiara her daughter-in-law right away."Yes, Mother," Arslan replied with a small smile. He looked the part, too—in a gray suit that was both elegant and classy.
Wilna looked at the man sitting in front of her with a look of annoyance. If she hadn't remembered to keep her cool, she might have asked him to leave the meeting room. The man's face was as impassive as usual, as if what happened in his life didn't really affect anything. Calm and even, according to Wilna, he looked happy."Oh, shoot! I completely forgot about that! His mistress is Jacob's family's daughter. This could really help Arslan advance in his career. It would be great if Arslan knew who he got rid of for his mistress." Wilna thought to herself. She cleared her throat to get her attention back on track. “Let’s get started with the meeting, then.”Arslan gave a little smile. "Go ahead. I'm looking forward to discussing it with you."And so they spent some time talking about the cooperation that had to be agreed upon by both parties before the contract was signed. Wilna listened closely as the Intel Corp team gave their explanation, which included some extra info from Arslan.
He quickly grabbed the cell phone on the table and made a call to the only person in authority. But he was interrupted by a quiet shake from the woman in front of him. Thomas was at a loss, looking into his sister's serious eyes.“You're making me angry, Helena,” Thomas said, trying to keep his annoyance in check. He wanted to make a phone call to Wilna. She needed to turn him down flat, whatever Arslan was offering. It was an interesting proposition, but after everything the man had done to Helena…Absolutely! There was no way Thomas would let Nakia, let alone the Edison Group, work with someone like that!"You've been giving me a hard time since the beginning," Helena said calmly. She took a slow sip of her warm milk, which she found to be a bit unpleasant. She frowned, feeling a bit uncomfortable, but she tried her best to take care of her future baby. "Are you not satisfied?" Helena added, “No problem.”"Oh my!" Thomas made a frustrated face. "I'm not sure what else to say to you,
The luncheon this time can be said to be quite luxurious. Maybe it's because the parties that will cooperate need to show how social class of business they have. After all, if this cooperation continues, it is likely that the stock movements of these two companies will continue to soar over time. Don't let this rare opportunity go to waste, right?"Wow," Tiara couldn't stop laughing. "Nakia Group never messes around when it comes to showing its class."Arslan gently rubbed the back of his future wife's hand. "You're right. That's why I have to get this project, my dear. You know, not only does your father have great hopes for me, but this collaboration will also bring me to the beginning of the highest point."Tiara smiled broadly. "I will be at your side from now on until then. Because a woman like me deserves to be at your side, right?"Arslan nodded slightly. The picture of Helena he had met earlier had changed. Why did he still think of his ex-wife? Besides, Helena should be happy
It took a while for Helena and Thomas to get to the banquet.Thomas was visibly frustrated and kept massaging his temples. Every so often, he paused and looked at his sister with a sharp gaze. “Are you sure about this?”“Yes, absolutely.” Helena replied without hesitation. "I really need Intel Corp. to cooperate on this. I asked Wilna to test the feasibility sample, and the results were pretty good. It seems that Intel has updated the program. I got the update from Wilna in an email."Thomas let out another sigh. "I'm not sure, Helena. After what that guy did, I don't want to see him around me. I can still find plenty of clients who are more capable than Intel Corp. I also heard that Jacob helped Intel Corp create the program they're now offering. You know, the Jacob Group has a pretty bad reputation, at least in my opinion. It's too risky for this partnership.""That issue has already been resolved. As I mentioned, I've already put together a sample test. That’s why I pushed for this
