The police tried to work things out. But if Zach did not move his car, they would have to take him to the station.While all of this was happening, I took the chance to slip away. I had planned for Sophie to pick me up, but she was not answering her phone. So, I kept walking instead.Eventually, I waited by the road for a cab. Just then, Mr. Pepper called to let me know that he was coming to get me; Zach had finally moved his car.Unfortunately, Zach showed up before Mr. Pepper.He tried to help me into his car, but I pushed his hand away. “Zach, the police just left. Do you want them back here?”“There’s no need for that.” He held on to my arm. “You’re heading to the hospital alone for your checkup. Who’s going to be there with you?”“My boyfriend works at the hospital. Didn’t you know?”“You’ve broken up with Hayden,” he replied calmly.A strong breeze was blowing my hair around, and I looked at his face through the wind. He seemed to know everything.At this moment, Mr. Pep

“Let’s forget for a moment whether I loved you back then. We grew up together, and that bond is still there. Besides, you’re carrying my babies.”“What if they’re not?” I asked with a smile.We were arguing at the door when Dr. Walter called out to me, “Ms. Freeman?”“Dr. Walter,” I greeted him. He was behind the screen. “I’m here.”“I won’t walk over there. I only want to hear their heartbeats.”I almost said, “Why does it matter to you?” However, I no longer had the energy to argue. If he wanted to hear them, fine.I went behind the screen, and Dr. Walter nodded at me. He then told me to lie down. “Let’s measure you and listen to their heartbeats.”After I lay down, Dr. Walter began to examine me. “Your belly’s pretty big. Having twins is tough. You’re in the later stages of pregnancy now. Since your eyesight is poor, be careful when going out.”“Okay,” I replied.“Is the man outside your husband?”“My husband is dead,” I said.Just then, Zach’s voice rang out. “I’m her

I had my phone on speaker, so Mr. Pepper heard everything. He sighed and said, “People these days are so focused on themselves. They’re always around when things are good, but nobody helps when you’re struggling. You can only hope that they don’t kick you when you’re down.”The business world was rough like that. Everyone knew that Zach and Tyler had cut ties and things were tense between them.Some people had distanced themselves from Zach to stay on Gordon Corporation’s good side. Meanwhile, others took this chance to push him down. Some, who used to be jealous of him and lived under his shadow, saw this as an opportunity to rise above him.I understood this well, hence I sold Yonder Trading. Business was exhausting and emotionally draining.If it had not been for Zach, I would not have even started Yonder Trading. I should have just been a free and wandering artist.Eventually, even Cameron called. He checked in on me and asked about Zach.“Should I end my partnership wi

“I’m fine now, really. It’s nothing.”“You’re strong. If Brody treated me like that…” Nellie stopped, as her voice was breaking.Brody quickly said, “You always bring up the wrong things.”“Let’s not talk about the past,” I said.“Right, right, we won’t.” Brody poured me some tea. “We’ve ended our partnership with Yonder Trading. Even though he didn’t change the company name, it’s not the same anymore. Since he treated you badly, he can’t blame us for ending the partnership.”“Why pay the penalty? We just signed the contract earlier this year.”“We’d rather pay the penalty than continue working with him,” Nellie said angrily. “We saw how you treated him, but how did he repay you? We won’t work with a heartless man like him. It’s not because he got kicked out of Gordon Corporation. We already decided to end the partnership when you left Yonder Trading.”I did not know what to say. I realized that some of the people ending their contracts with Yonder Trading were close friends of

I went to the restroom and unexpectedly ran into Zach.When Nellie and I exited the restroom, we heard him call my name, “Cassia.”We stopped, and Nellie whispered, “Do you want to talk to him? Should I leave and let you two chat?”Nellie walked off, so Zach and I were left standing in the hallway.I licked my lips and said, “If I were you, I’d pretend not to see me.”“It’s fine. It’s just a dinner that no one showed up for.” He sounded calm. I was not sure if he was putting on a calm front. “That’s just how the world is.”“I’m not obligated to comfort you,” I said. “Brody and Yonder Trading ended their partnership—”“It’s not your problem.” He interrupted. “You’re not that kind of person.”“What kind of person?”He did not answer. “Let me walk you back. I’ll say hi to Brody too.”I did not think that Brody would want to say hi to him, so I stayed still.Zach smiled. “What? Are you worried that Brody’s going to be rude to me? I’m the bad guy everyone loves to criticize now.

“I don’t want to hear it from you. Cecilia, what do you have to say to me?”“Zach, let’s talk outside,” Cecilia replied.“No, let’s talk right here. Once we’re done, you can go.”“Enough, Zach! Fine, I admit it. I’m with Fame now. What of it? Look at you. Did a single person even show up to your dinner?”“I’m only on bad terms with my dad because of you.”“You’re such a fool! Who told you to pick a fight with your dad? Don’t you realize that everything you have is because of the Gordon family? Without them, everyone’s going to put you down. You think you’re all that? Wilson Corporation and I would’ve gone under if I had to rely on you!”Cecilia was a b*tch for being so harsh. Anyone else could have said that, but it should not have come from her. Zach ended up like this because of her. I used to think that she was just selfish and fake. But after this, I realized that she was ruthless too.Zach remained silent for a long time. He had to be devastated. The woman he loved had

I was not sure if Zach would hurt Cecilia. But it did seem like their relationship was over. Honestly, I did not expect things to end like this. Zach had done so much for her. I thought that they would at least end up happy together. How did things get so messy and dramatic? I might have predicted the outcome but not the details.The next morning, all the media outlets were abuzz. As soon as everyone woke up and checked their phones, they saw news of Zach and Cecilia. I could not see, so I did not bother clicking on anything.However, when I went downstairs for breakfast, the maids—Janette and the others—were secretly watching some clips. I could hear what was being said.Cecilia shamelessly told Zach, “Let’s break up, Zach! I don’t love you anymore! It’s over!” I stopped at the stairs and grabbed the handrail to listen to Zach’s response. He asked, “Are you sure? Is this final? You won’t regret it?”Cecilia laughed and said, “What do you think, Zach? I won’t regret it.”

My mom let out a long sigh.I knew that she was worried I would get hurt again. Everything I had gone through for Zach had worn me down, and it hurt them to watch.However, did they really think I was that foolish?I was going to the clinic for vision therapy today. Since Oliver did not have classes, he offered to tag along. The clinic was nearby, and the weather was great, so I did not ask Mr. Pepper to drive us. Oliver and I just slowly walked over the yellow leaves on the path.As we held hands, I was suddenly reminded of the time when we were kids. We used to walk hand in hand, and Oliver would say, “Be my girlfriend, Cassia! Let’s get married!”I would laugh and say, “Two years ago, you wanted to marry Mom. Now, it’s me. Can’t you find someone outside our family for once?”“Does that mean Sophie’s out too?”“Why don’t you ask her?”This kid, who used to say such silly things, was all grown up. I could not see the top of his head unless I jumped.Oliver’s hand was big an

Sophie knocked on my door the next day around 7 a.m.I only managed to fall asleep at about 2 a.m., so I had a bad headache. I sat on the bed as she ran over excitedly and asked, “Are you busy this morning?” “Go away.” I lay down again. “Come to the city hall with me. I’m getting married!”“Why do you need me there? Am I going to breastfeed you?”“You don’t have milk right now.” I was disgusted by our conversation. Rachel sat up from the bed and asked, “Why are you going to the city hall?”“To get married.”“Shouldn’t you be going to a church for that? There’s supposed to be a priest with a bible that asks if you’re willing to marry this person next to you regardless of… something?”“That’s a religious wedding. Besides, it has to be lawful. What we’re doing today is the legal side of things.” Sophie carried Rachel up from the bed. “Do you want to be a witness to our marriage?” “Yay, sure!” Rachel immediately beamed and agreed. “I want to be the priest who holds the bibl

Cecilia had no shame at all. I would be speechless if this worked on Zach. After a while, she walked out dejectedly with her flowers. It seemed like she did not even manage to enter his office. She stood there in annoyance for a while before she suddenly looked over in my direction. I could see her, but she might not be able to see me. I was on a high floor, and the sun was blinding. Right then, Hailey gave me a call. I knew that she wanted to rant about Cecilia. Sure enough, Hailey started to complain, “Ms. Freeman, Cecilia is really shameless. I’ve never seen such a shameless woman. When Mr. Gordon was cut off from Gordon Corporation, she abandoned him immediately. Now that she knows he’s going to be Gordon Corporation’s acting CEO, she instantly starts visiting him again. I really can’t stand her.” “Hasn’t she always been like this?” I was unfazed. “Fortunately, Mr. Gordon is not willing to see her.” Hailey sounded relieved. “Do you really think he won’t see her fo

I looked at Austin’s pale face, and I was at a loss for words. His argument was reasonable, and I had no way to refute it. I was upset, but I could not cry. I felt a heavy feeling in my chest, and I found it hard to breathe. He looked at me and suddenly smiled. “Look at your face. Have I ever said that I liked Sophie? I don’t like girls like her. I prefer girls like you who are smart, beautiful, and decisive. Why don’t you marry me after you give birth to your babies?”I did not want to joke around with him. It was not funny.After that, Lucy exited the bridal shop and got into the backseat of the car. I stood in front of the bridal shop and watched as his car disappeared into the corner. “Cassia,” Sophie called out to me. I turned around. “What?”“Whose side are you on? I realize you’ve been extra nice to Austin recently. Have you forgotten that he’s a jerk?”“Watch your mouth.”I got into my car unhappily. “I’ll make a move first.”“Aren’t we having dinner together to

I knew that he was looking at the photos of him and Sophie in her wedding gown. Perhaps this would be the only time in his entire life that he could stand next to Sophie while she was dressed in a wedding gown. I felt the waterworks coming. When I tried to look for tissue papers in my bag, Zach called me. He sounded a bit excited. “Cassia, there’s this person overseas who has the same blood type as Austin. He has ALS, which is a fatal motor neuron disease. His family has already signed an organ donation form for him, and his condition recently worsened. He may pass in a month’s time, so I got in contact with them. His family has agreed to donate his heart to Austin.” “Really?” It was good news, and I almost leaped in joy. I glanced at Austin excitedly. He was staring intently at his phone, so he did not notice me. “Does Austin have to leave immediately?”“It’s still early. We can leave when the donor’s condition worsens.” I estimated the time. Zach said that it would ta

Sophie could easily start a fight wherever she went. I immediately went over and saw that Austin’s forehead had turned red. It seemed to be getting swollen. I kicked Sophie in anger. “Is there something wrong with you? What are you doing?” “Why did you kick me? Didn’t you hear what he just said?”Austin bent down and picked up Sophie’s phone for her. “Luckily, your phone screen isn’t cracked. It’s fine if my skull is cracked; it can heal.” Sophie took her phone, and it immediately unlocked due to face ID. Her wallpaper was a photo of Kingston and her. She had just changed the wallpaper yesterday. It used to be a photo of me and her. Austin was the one who had taken that photo. Even though Austin was not directly in the photo, it felt like it was a photo of the three of us. He must have noticed it. He smiled and said, “I’ll make a move. Tell Lucy I’ll be waiting for her in the car.” Austin walked out of the bridal shop, and Sophie looked dispirited. “I was quite happy, bu

“You’re getting married too?”“I’ll be your best man or maid of honor. What? You’re too cheap to pay for the outfits?”“You, my best man?”“Look around you. Are there any single people left?”Sophie rolled her eyes. “Hah, I wasn’t planning on inviting you.”Kingston tried to shake Austin’s hand, but Austin ignored him. Sophie got mad and pulled Kingston away. “Don’t pay attention to him. He thinks he’s too good for anyone. He’s crazy.”“Sophie,” I warned.“What? He’s always acting crazy!” she yelled.I was not sure if Austin really wanted to be Sophie’s best man, or if it was just an excuse to come here.Anyway, Austin went to change too. I could not tell the difference between the best man’s and groom’s outfits. However, the difference between the bridesmaid and bride was clear.While Sophie was posing in front of the mirror in her wedding dress, Austin came out of the fitting room.Austin was very thin, and the suit hung loosely on him, but it still looked good.He had a

Sophie’s wedding preparations were progressing quickly. She limped to work in the mornings and dragged me along in the afternoons to buy wedding stuff.I felt like the wedding was just an excuse for her to go shopping.“This afternoon, Kingston and I are trying on our wedding outfits. You should come too.”“It’s your wedding. Why should I come?”“To help me choose! I look good in everything, so it’s hard to pick.”“If it’s that hard, just buy them all. Aren’t you rich?”“Why are you so grouchy?” She leaned closer and observed me. “Cassia, are your hormones off balance?”“I’m pregnant, so everything’s a mess right now.”After some thought, I called Austin and told him, “Sophie’s trying on wedding dresses this afternoon.”“Okay,” he replied in his usual lifeless tone.“Aren’t you going to say anything to her?”“Don’t eat too much. The wedding dress will be a pain to alter.”I was so angry that I hung up. He was so stubborn. I was sure that he would regret it and cry later.M

Austin was the weakest among us when we were kids. He could not climb trees, run, or do anything physically demanding. Instead, he would play board games and puzzles with us.Sophie always thought that he was smart, and she admired him.I never imagined that someone I grew up with might die so soon.“You should leave,” he said weakly. “She should be done by now.”“Austin.” I wanted to say something more, but he turned his back to me.He did not want to listen, so I had no choice but to leave.As I reached the door, I heard him say, “Actually, this is a good thing.”Was he saying that Sophie marrying Kingston was a good thing?What was good about it?I felt like grabbing Sophie over. I wanted to point at the dying man in bed and say, “This guy loves you more than you know. He helped you test Kingston’s character. He thinks about you all the time. He comes to see you every night using his half-sister as an excuse, but he’s dying. He doesn’t want you to be sad, so he plans to die

“I just went for a checkup.” Austin walked over to me. “Why are you sweating so much?”He took a handkerchief out of his pocket and gave it to me. Honestly, only Austin would still carry a handkerchief in his condition.I wiped my sweat. “I came with Sophie to get her cast off, and I thought I’d stop by to see you.”“Get her cast off? I thought that wasn’t until next month?”“She insisted on getting it off today. The doctor checked, and her bone is healing well, so it’s fine for her to take it off.”“When did she start caring so much about her looks?” Austin walked back to his room, and I followed him.He sat down and seemed a little out of breath. I had already asked the doctor about him. Austin could not engage in any physical activity; he could not even walk fast.I was about to pour him some water, but he waved me off. “Don’t bother. I’m not thirsty. How could I let you take care of me? I might be a patient, but you’re pregnant.”At least, he could still joke. If I were him
