Nancy's dinner date with Yaacob was at six o'clock in the evening, so she still had time to go to the beauty salon. While going through her facial, Nancy was about to fall asleep when a woman's voice jolted her awake.

"Ms. Lawson, your skin is flawless. You must really take good care of it."

Nancy thought someone was talking to her, but then she heard another voice reply, "Not really. I just make sure to wash my face properly at the end of the day."

Based on that pretentious answer alone, Nancy knew Teresa was next door.

"Then you must be born with flawless skin, Teresa. Oh my god, I'm so jealous. We women really need to take care of our skin especially when we are older than 25 years old. In fact, I wish I could get facial treatments every day."

'Wait a minute… Isn't that Rosa's voice? Why is she hanging out with Teresa?' thought Nancy.

"Rosa, your family is so rich that you can just open your own private beauty salon at home. Unlike me, I have to pinch pennies to make ends meet

    "Rosa, I would like to have a word with Teresa, in private. Would you mind giving us some space?" Nancy said warmly as she summoned up all the niceness she had in her.Face it. Rosa was Yaacob's biological sister. As the saying goes, blood is thicker than water. No matter how much Nancy might dislike Rosa, she was willing to look past their differences for Yaacob's sake. Besides, Nancy did not wish to put Yaacob in a position where he was forced to choose between them. Unfortunately, the same could be said of Rosa, for she never considered Nancy family. Rosa said with her chest puffed out, "Nancy, Teresa is my bestie, if you even think of pushing her around." Nancy was exasperated and said, "Why would I do such a thing? I just wanted to talk to her about certain disputes we had regarding my previous marriage. If Teresa doesn't mind, do feel free to stick around."By putting Teresa on the spot, she knew Teresa would flinch and would not want Rosa to be around. Nancy had Teresa on

    Yaacob did consider going after Lola. However, that was a tactical evasion he considered when he realized he was falling more and more for Nancy each day. To this day, he felt it was the worst mistake he had made in the past few years.Yaacob used to despise women who boasted about the number of men being at their heels and used that to show off. However, Nancy was the exception. Nancy took pride and reveled in her own beauty, and yet, in Yaacob's eyes, that was a captivating and charming sight.Not all women who were bestowed with beauty were able to make use of it without being annoying.Obviously, Lola did not have the same gift as Nancy. She tried as she might to flirt with Yaacob, but it only caused Yaacob to furrow his brows deeper and get agitated."The keyword being 'almost'!" replied Yaacob.Lola could tell from his tone of voice that he was relieved that he did not fall for her. That greatly embarrassed her."Oh my. I did not expect a fine gentleman such as Mr. Getson t

    Before the dinner "party" was even over, the two main characters had left.Randall went to a nearby hotel with Rowena, and after some intimacy, he held her in his arms tightly.It was about thirty minutes to midnight. When he saw that there was only half a circle left by the bedside table, he frowned.At that moment, the room was very quiet. He could hear Rowena panting audibly next to him. Their session had been incredibly intense.However, as they slowly cooled down, Randall felt his heart empty.It was a strange feeling. He was holding her, but he still felt empty.He knew he would not be able to hold her again very soon.He could not help but tighten his arms around her, gently kissing her forehead.He tried to get her favor: "Rowena, what do you want? I'll give you anything."Rowena's face was still red after how intimate they had been. She smiled as she stopped her panting and answered, "There's no need. I'll get what I want very soon."What she wanted had always been t

    Nancy spat out her coffee.She coughed as she wiped her mouth with a napkin.She took the chance to digest what Rowena had said before looking at the woman in disbelief. "Are you serious? Lola's his mistress!""I've already divorced Randall. There are no mistresses any more." Rowena was even trying to defend Lola.It was probably only those who had true love like Nancy did who hated mistresses and homewreckers!In Rowena's eyes, there was no mistress because she had never thought of Randall as her husband. So she did not care if anyone took him away."If you really want to get rid of Randall, you could hope that he falls for another girl. It doesn't need to be Lola."In truth, even though Nancy thought Randall was a scumbag, she still felt that it would be his loss to be with Lola.After all, he was a romantic at heart, and Lola just wanted his money. She had even used such underhanded methods.Rowena shook her head, stirring her coffee as she said, "If he could fall for a wom

    Nancy was stunned to see the scar on Lola's chest.She never expected something like that to exist between Lola and Randall.Nancy still remembered when Ain had been in Randall's hospital. Ain had asked Nancy if she was there to see Lola.At the time, Nancy had not realized what she had meant, but after Lola had said that she had met Ain before, she realized they had met at the hospital.Lola had taken a bullet for Randall and had been sent to the hospital to get treated. There, she had met Ain.That was probably what had happened. After that, Randall had arranged a place for her to stay after she had gotten better.So he had not been keeping her as his mistress."Nancy, I know you look down on me. At the start, I really did do everything I could to get closer to Randall, but so what? Compared to you and Mr. Getson, I'm unlucky. I seized this chance for myself. I just lost out to his wife because I met him a few years later. If it was her, would she have taken a bullet for Randa

    In the end, Nancy did not ask Julian for help.That was because Yaacob suddenly rushed over, stopping her from mentioning Rowena's name.She was pulled into their room, and the moment Nancy stepped inside, Yaacob pushed against the door and kissed her."Ugh…"Nancy could tell that he was not in a good mood, and she did not like being intimate with him in this situation.However, the more she fought, the more Yaacob pushed!She had heard that all men were like this. If it were any other day, Nancy would have gone along with him, but she was in a bad mood today. She clamped her lips shut and stopped Yaacob's advances."Nancy…" Yaacob looked at her and sighed. "Who said you could ask Julian for help?"Nancy pursed her lips, not saying a word. It was obvious that it had been her own idea."Are you deliberately trying to make me angry?"Nancy shook her head.Yacob kissed her forehead gently, pushing her hair behind her ear as he stared at her.With her charming face, was there a

    Yaacob fell to the ground because Randall had used most of his strength in that punch.Tasting metal, Yaacob was just about to wipe his mouth when Randall pulled him up by the collar."Where is Rowena?" he pressed.Yaacob remained silent.Randall was absolutely furious. He gave Yaacob one last chance: "I'm asking you, where is she?""I can't tell you."Randall punched him again.Bang!The bottles of alcohol on the bar shattered.Yaacob still remained silent. He could have explained himself.After all, he was even good at talking to women, who were the hardest people to convince in the world.However, Yaacob remained silent. He wanted to anger Randall to punish himself.Nancy was right in saying that they should save Rowena. It was the right thing to do.However, Yaacob and Randall were sworn brothers. He would not use logic to convince himself of the validity of his actions and would allow Randall to teach him a lesson."Did you purposely call me over last night? Did Row

    Not long after Randall left the country, Lola left university.Nancy heard that she left of her own free will because she did not want to study anymore.She heard nothing else about Lola.The moment Randall left, Yaacob practically lost his right arm.The competition between him and Julian was growing incredibly intense. Even Nancy was getting worried.Thankfully, after securing a few important projects, Yaacob was slowly gaining the advantage.Yaacob's position in the company was now higher than Julian's.Nancy could feel their relatives' attitudes toward her changing. However, Lady Getson was always watching her with a worried expression.For instance, after Nancy had had breakfast that day, she turned to see Lady Getson staring at her, causing her to feel a bit nervous.However, Nancy still walked forward and asked, "Grandma, did you need something?"Lady Getson looked at her bag and asked, "Are you going to class?""Yes, I am!""All right, go on."Hearing that, Nancy w

    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?

    Nancy had just stopped at Athenapolis to pick up some things she had left with Benson's friends when they had stayed there.She had also wanted to congratulate Rowena and Randall on their marriage and to apologize for not being able to attend their wedding.However, the next day, she could not get up at all.Fearing another intense night like the one before, she decided to book a flight to Rhea City that afternoon.The moment she sat on the plane, Nancy almost collapsed in her seat. 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.

    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

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.

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?"
