"I've met Ain before, but at that time I didn't know she was your husband's ex-girlfriend," answered Lola.

Nancy could not think of a time when Lola and Ain would cross paths.

"Where did you two meet?" she asked.

"I can't tell you that for the time being." Lola was very cautious and knew how to use the information she had at her disposal to get what she wanted. "How about this? You only need to tell me Mr. Smith's address, and I'll tell you a secret that'll solve all your problems. It's a win-win solution."

"It does sound like a win-win solution," said Nancy with a nod.

Lola immediately looked at her expectantly, waiting for her to reveal Randall's address.

However, Nancy suddenly said, "But I still don't want to tell you."

"Why not? It's just an address. It's not like you'll be doing something criminal. Plus, it's not like you're close to his wife. So are you really going to give up the chance to protect your own relationship for someone you're not even close to?"

"No, it's ju

    Yaacob sat down on the edge of the bed and tried to reason with Nancy, "Nancy, didn't I tell you to stay out of this? Why didn't you discuss with me first about going to the hospital for the interview?""You didn't discuss with me before you went to the hospital to rescue Ain from the reporters either? My professor played that video clip in our class! My husband was in the hospital protecting his ex-girlfriend, who had recently been rumored to be with him. Do you know what others thought of me at that moment?""I admit it's my fault for not thinking it through."After that, the two of them fell silent.Nancy and Yaacob rarely had such quiet moments together because they could not keep their hands to themselves. Even if Yaacob were busy with work, they would still have some fun, so it was quite rare for there to be such serious tension in the room.Nancy suddenly panicked when she realized that Yaacob had nothing to say to her. Before Yaacob could turn around and leave, she grabbed

    A gust of wind kicked up, causing Nancy to shiver and goosebumps to appear all over her body.'Just what is he trying to pull? Why is he flirting with me? Ugh. It makes me sick,' thought Nancy.She was about to return to her room to prove she and Yaacob were just fine, but Julian stopped her before she could even stand up."I heard that you used to be a woman who would do anything for love, Nancy. So what happened to you?" asked Julian."What do you mean what happened to me?" asked Nancy angrily."You've become a coward!"Nancy was speechless."Weren't you the type who would fight anyone who wrongs you? At least that's what you did to me, isn't it?"Even though Nancy and Julian did not get along, she had to admit that his words made her feel a little better.Having been caught off guard by Ain several times before, Nancy found herself all over the place. However, when she really gave it some thought, Ain was just a one-trick pony who only knew how to play the victim card.In

    "She should be fine, right?" asked Nancy."The doctors are trying to save her as we speak. So we don't know whether she's going to make it out alive yet," answered Yaacob.Nancy knew that Ain would not die so easily! She remembered Lucy had used the same tactic before to get Yaacob's attention.However, she also knew Yaacob must be really worried about Ain, so she asked, "Do you want to go to the hospital to check on her?""Randall has full control of the hospital. I just need to call him and ask him to help take care of it.""It's so late, and Randall has his own things to do. Not to mention, Ain is your first girlfriend, not his. So it's best if you handle this yourself. Go if you want. But I'm going with you. I'm guessing she probably cut her wrist because of the article that I published," said Nancy matter-of-factly, but there was no bitterness undertone to it. Thus, Nancy and Yaacob arrived at the hospital in the middle of the night, and by that time, Ain had already gone b

    Nancy told Yaacob everything about her miscarriage. She originally planned to tell him that night so he would not have the energy to help Ain. After all, there were many things between them that have not yet been resolved.'If Ain can play the pity card, then I can too!' thought Nancy. However, she was not 'playing' really since it was indeed pitiful that she had a miscarriage. Losing the baby was quite traumatic for her, but she managed to stay strong for Yaacob.Nancy felt relieved but empty at the same time after finally telling Yaacob about the miscarriage. She lay in Yaacob's arms and cried heartbrokenly; it was like she had lost the baby all over again.Yaacob certainly had no time to care about others then, not when Nancy had just revealed such shocking and heartbreaking news to him. He did not even have time to tell the hospital staff to keep a close eye on Ain before taking Nancy home. Of course, they would still take care of Ain well without even him needing to tell them.

    Nancy and Yaacob had to buy the earliest flight back to Athenapolis as soon as they got off the plane because of Ain's death. It was already evening when they finally arrived home.Yaacob carried Nancy, who was already asleep, back to the room and gently placed her on the bed. After that, he rushed to the police station to cooperate with the investigation.Nancy opened her eyes as soon as Yaacob left the room. She knew Yaacob had no choice but to go, so she did not stop him.'Did Ain really die? And in the same way as Emily as well. Could it be the same killer?' she wondered.A chill ran down her spine, and she could not fall asleep anymore after thinking about what happened to Emily. She was not sleepy at all, just a little tired. Plus, she did not know how to face Yaacob because she knew it was not his intention to have their travel plan ruined by Ain. Yet, she could not help but feel resentful that he was busying himself with Ain's affairs again.Nancy always had a hunch that t

    Lucy looked at Julian in shock. She could not believe that he would be so cruel to her when she had already humbled herself to him."Why? Tell me, am I not good enough? How is Nancy better than me?" asked Lucy.Julian could not be bothered to list all the ways in which Nancy was better than Lucy, so he simply said, "She's better than you in every way!"Lucy was really shocked by what he said. What was even more shocking was that she was standing naked in front of him, and still, Julian did not want her!He had no intention of staying home that night, so he left the room, ignoring Lucy.After leaving, Julian heard the sound of things being smashed in the bedroom behind him and knew that Lucy was going crazy again, so he shook his head silently.When the servants downstairs heard the noise, they all held their breath out of fear because they thought Julian was abusing Lucy again.Yaacob came back the next morning. It was obvious from the dark circles and bags under his eyes that h

    Lucy knocked on the door of Yaacob's study and opened the door without waiting for a response. Yaacob immediately frowned and covered the paper he was reading with a magazine."What brings you here, Lucy?" asked Yaacob.Lucy had already walked up to him by then. She glanced down at his desk and saw a corner of the paper was exposed underneath the magazine, and the name 'Ain' was written on it.'I was right. Yaacob only cares about Ain,' thought Lucy."Ahem. I said, what brings you here, Lucy?" repeated Yaacob impatiently.Normally, he was very polite, especially to women. After all, his time in prison had taught him to put on a mask for every interaction. However, he found himself becoming more and more reluctant to keep the mask on around other women ever since he got together with Nancy.Lucy felt a little aggrieved. She deliberately pursed her lips for a while to challenge Yaacob's patience and then said, "Yaacob, are you looking for Ain?""That's none of your business. You c

    Less than half a minute after Yaacob read the text message, he received another message from Ain's number.[I have her too!]He showed both text messages to Randall, to which the latter asked, "If your guess is correct and Ain is the real killer, then she's behind this too?"Yaacob frowned and said nothing.Immediately afterward, he received the third text message from an unknown number. [Choose one of the two.][Who are you?][I'm going to kill all the women around you!][Are you from the organization?][Yes.]After that, the unknown number sent Yaacob a photo.It was a photo of Nancy tied up and unconscious.[She is really beautiful. It'll be a shame to chop her up into pieces. She'll make a wonderful specimen.][Don't you dare]After that, the unknown number sent him a photo of Ain, who was all tied up and unconscious as well. Judging from the background of the photo, she and Nancy are not in the same room.[I can let one of them go. It's up to you to choose who shal

    Yaacob stayed in Nancy and Celica's house in Rhea City for a month without leaving.After sending Celica to kindergarten, Yaacob sent Nancy to the company.Nancy always asked him to stop the car two streets away from the company, but that day, Yaacob went a bit further, and she started to get anxious. "Stop the car, quick. Stop going forward. It's the peak hour right now. I can't let anyone see me."Yaacob stopped the car, but he did not unlock the door.He lowered the top of the convertible and asked her, "Is being with me that embarrassing to you?""I'm not with you. This is just a transaction!" Nancy insisted.She could not open the door and noticed that Yaacob had locked it. When she went to unlock it, her hand was pushed down by the man."Don't I make you happy? Is Celica unhappy? Don't you enjoy every night that we're together? You clearly have me in your heart, but why do you keep denying it? Nancy, what happened to your boldness and carefree spirit?

Her lower back was aching.When she shut her eyes, her head was inexplicably flooded with certain images.It was like she was under a spell!"Ms., the flight is about to take off. Please switch off your phones," the flight attendant told Nancy.Nancy remembered that she had already turned off her phone.However, she turned around to see Celica looking at her phone unhappily."Sorry."Nancy switched off Celica's phone, but she did not seem happy about it. "Mommy… will Uncle Yaacob call me?""Even

    After half a year, Nancy finally returned from America with Celica.Celica held Nancy's hand in one hand and a cat plushie that was almost half her size in another.As soon as they walked out of the VIP channel, Celica's sharp eyes immediately spotted the man who had come to pick them up. She abandoned her plushie as she rushed to him, hands outstretched and waiting to be carried."Uncle Yaacob! Uncle Yaacob!""Celica, don't run so fast!"Nancy could not stop her and could only follow behind, picking up the plushie along with some candy that had dropped from her pocket as she ran.Yaacob hurried forward and immediately scooped Celica up. He smelled the sweet scent of candy."Uncle Yaacob…"Celica hugged Yaacob, nuzzling her head against his. The fine and soft hair that was unique to a child warmed Yaacob's heart.It had been two years, but she had not forgotten him!It seemed like her memory was better than expected. She had probably gotten it from him.Of course, it was als

    Randall and Rowena went to the same motel they had the last time.The boss remembered them as the ones who had broken his window, but he did not give them a hard time, warmly welcoming them instead.After all, the money that Randall had given him for it had been enough to replace the windows of the whole building. This time, Randall flexed his financial might again. He pulled out a wad of cash from his wallet and put it on the counter. "Boss, we want an entire floor.""Sir, do you want one room or two?""The whole floor!"Hearing what Randall said, Rowena looked at him in amazement. "Why so many rooms?""Have you forgotten how bad the soundproofing is here?" Randall replied.Rowena was speechless.The hotel owner was a veteran of this. He immediately put the money into the counter drawer and said, "Okay, I'll give you a key to a room on the third floor. I'll go knock on every door to clear the floor out right now. I assure you that you'll have an enjoyable night!"Rowena fel

    "How absurd!"Randall's words were not meant to demean her. He just felt that it was too dangerous for the child to be there.Rowena, however, felt like she was being blamed for no reason."Why are you in a restaurant with this girl in the middle of the night?" Rowena asked Randall.Randall did not answer. He walked forward to help secure Dorothy before he took the dangerous weapon off her hands."Rowena, you should bring Sandy back for now."Rowena did not move."It's too dangerous for the both of you to be here. Listen to me!" Randall told her.Rowena did not respond. Instead, it was Dorothy who spoke: "Mr. Smith, why do you think she can just come and go as she pleases? I already told my subordinates that not even a fly is allowed out."Even though Rowena had been captured, she knew that they would not be able to walk free if anything happened to her so the man would not touch her so easily."Mrs. Browning, you just wanted to talk with me."Dorothy really liked talking to

    Dorothy and Randall found themselves in a standoff. Suddenly, a hushed report from her subordinate reached Dorothy's ears. "Someone's outside, claiming to have information on Mr. Randall.""Who? Could it be that Yaacob has returned earlier than expected?" Dorothy, determined to prevail over Randall that night, insisted, "Don't let him in; I can't believe he would just barge in!""It's not Mr. Randall. It's a woman, accompanied by a child." The subordinate hesitated before providing more details.Rowena, who had given birth just four months ago, had swiftly regained her pre-pregnancy figure. She wore a navy blue striped shirt knotted at the waist, paired with snug jeans, showing no signs of her previous pregnancy. From behind, she looked slender and youthful, resembling a young girl. Yet, in front, she cradled a baby.The infant, only three or four months old, sported a hat with a few wisps of hair peeking out and a pacifier. The child's intelligent eyes darted around, exploring the

    Having finally brought Rowena home, Randall became an aspiring intern dad. Opting against hiring a nanny, he naturally assumed the responsibility of caring for his pregnant wife.He would juggle the demands of running the company and handling household matters. Randall appeared fatigued, yet those with keen observation could discern a tired but content expression on his face. Lately, a newfound joy, previously unseen, frequently illuminated his features—the anticipation of becoming a father.During a visit to the hospital, a woman seated beside Rowena observed her pregnant belly and initiated a conversation, "Your belly is quite prominent. When are you due?""In about a month," Rowena replied."That's wonderful! Congratulations! I saw you during one of my check-ups. Is the man accompanying you each time your husband?"
