Sophie pushed Raven and Gia out of the pavilion. “Stop worrying and just go already!” she urged.

“But what if…”

“I’ve had plenty of experience handling two stubborn babies. Look, one of them grew up healthy and was incredibly handsome.” Sophie pointed at Raven, her face brimming with pride.

“I became handsome on my own. It has nothing to do with you,” Raven retorted.

“Whatever the case, you grew up healthy and handsome, didn’t you? So taking care of two babies for a few hours is something I can handle,” Sophie replied confidently.

“But Raven and Lonan weren’t babies at the same time. It’s different now. You’ll have trouble i

    The festival truly delighted its audience, both visually and aurally. Even Gia, who knew nothing about classical music, enjoyed the performance.At first, the music played on a stage as usual, featuring classical pieces in various tempos. Gia felt comforted and melancholic when the orchestra played soft, soothing melodies. When the tempo shifted to an upbeat rhythm, it sparked an unusual energy in her, almost making her feel like picking up a weapon, though she wasn’t sure who she would fight for.Accustomed to such performances, Raven couldn’t help but critique some of the acts. After all, it was a festival, so among the orchestras that performed, there were bound to be one or two that felt amateurish.However, the central performance, a true feast for the eyes and ears, began late at night. The stage w

    They left the café with full stomachs and began walking again, retracing the past offered by the city.“That one?” Raven pointed to an open carriage, empty and parked beside the ancient town hall building."Sure," Gia nodded.The carriage driver smiled, opened the door, and helped Gia climb in.This might be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Riding in a carriage added a unique charm to that journey. The sound of horses’ hooves against the cobblestones became an accompanying melody, immersing the passengers deeper in memories of the past.But not Gia. She stared ahead, her eyes vacant, lost in thought. Raven sighed knowingly and took her hand, pulling her back to reality.

    The moment the door to the room closed, Raven pushed Gia against the wall and claimed her lips with an intensity that betrayed his longing. It was rough, laced with a hint of demand and punishment. Gia’s breath hitched as Raven consumed her fervently, his passion wild and unrestrained.“You little devil,” Raven hissed, pulling back momentarily. Frustration laced his tone, annoyed that Gia had waited until now to tell him."You were busy, Rave." Jasper had only given him a month’s leave, but Raven had stretched it to six weeks. Two weeks ago, he finally relented to Jasper’s incessant demands and returned to work.The mountain of documents Jasper sent afterward had Raven cursing under his breath. Thankfully, Gia and the kids weren’t around to witness his frustration. Pending tasks were never enjoyable.“Don’t lie to me, Haze,” Raven growled, turning Gia’s face back to meet his gaze. It didn’t take long for him to figure out her excuse was a lie, especially with how she avoided his eyes.

    Gia held her breath and squeezed Raven’s hand as she watched Al, moving stiffly and unsteadily, reach for the sofa’s edge to use it as support to stand. Without hesitation, Gia grabbed the camera, which was never far from her reach.She no longer felt the need to search for subjects to photograph. Her new hobby revolved around capturing moments of Al and Frey. The camera’s memory card held thousands of photos of their babies. However, the first step of the tin couldn’t be captured simply in a still image.Gia switched the camera to video mode and focused on Al. The nine-month-old chubby baby trembled as he mustered all his strength to stand before taking one small, tentative step after another. His hands clung to the sofa for balance, but he walked."Did you see that? Did you see it?" Gia whispered, her voice brimming with excitement. Despite her urge to cheer loudly, she kept her tone low, fearing she might startle Al and make him lose his grip.Raven nodded and squeezed Gia’s arm,

    Gia read the message on her phone. Vero informed her that she would be busy today, handling four deliveries. Finally, it made sense why Aria had come alone.Gia was late in reading the message. Earlier, she had wondered about Vero’s absence. She wanted to ask Aria about it, but since Aria arrived, she had been busy joking with Al and Frey, leaving no room for Gia to ask.Gia opened the fridge and took out apple juice and water for Aria.“I don’t need water! I need something super sweet—chocolate ice cream! Bring it all out,” Aria firmly protested, waving her hand in refusal.“What’s going on?” Gia asked. This was the first time she had seen Aria ask for ice cream. Usually, she avoided sugar to maintain her weight.Gia turned around and opened the freezer. Luckily, a tub of chocolate ice cream remained, a remnant of her dessert-making experiment.Gia had recently learned to cook. Sophie had taught her, and after three months of practice, Gia finally mastered three recipes and one desse

    Gia honestly forgot about it. The warmth and happiness that had enveloped her these past few months made her unwilling to recall such unpleasant memories.Her mind effortlessly sorted out the fact that Raven was a fugitive and buried it deep in the back of her head. She refused to let that thought disrupt her happiness. But now, that very fact struck her, shattering the beautiful picture of her life at an unexpected moment. It destroyed the perfect world she had tried so hard to maintain.Gia crouched, crossing her arms over her chest, squeezing her arms and shoulders to keep herself conscious.She couldn’t allow herself to faint. Gia kept hurting her own body to stay awake. The pain from her tight grip was enough to hold on to the fragments of her sanity, preventing it from being consumed by panic and fear for the future.“Gia, what’s wrong?” Aria asked when she saw Gia’s phone fall to the floor. She got up and approached her, clueless about what was happening.“What’s wrong? Don’t d

    Gia’s hands trembled as she listened to the dial tone. The long-distance call only played monotonously, indicating that Caius wasn’t answering.“Is he ignoring you?” Matteo asked.Gia wanted to say yes, but she trusted Caius more than that. So she called again.“Maybe he’s busy,” Gia said, trying to comfort herself while giving Matteo an excuse.The second call nearly crushed Gia’s hope. It, too, was nothing but an endless ringing tone without an answer. But just as the call was about to end, she finally heard a response.“Gia.”“Caz…”“I can’t help you.”Before Gia could even State," her request, Caius cut her off. He had already heard about Raven and guessed why Gia was calling.“I’m not asking for much. I just want to meet your father.”Caius let out a dry, bitter laugh at Gia’s request. “He won’t even meet me, Gia. How could I possibly get you an audience with him? He’s furious because I sided with Raven and didn’t take Willow’s side. I could’ve initially reported your marriage to

    “It’s colder here,” Gia murmured. She had gotten used to Italy’s climate and forgotten that Norway was several degrees cooler.Italy’s spring temperature hovered below twenty degrees Celsius, but Norway was likely below fifteen. Gia was thankful she had dressed Al and Frey warmly enough.Jasper greeted them on the runway with Max. Their group was quite large, so he had prepared two cars. Besides Matteo, Gia brought Sophie along, as she was the only one who could help her manage the twins. Marlow had stayed behind in Italy and would only join them if necessary.“Geirangerfjord.”Gia pronounced their destination fluently as the car started moving, recalling how patiently Raven had taught her to say the name correctly.A wave of nostalgia hit Gia. Although she had left this country over a year ago, her memories of Norway remained vivid.She remembered how chaotic her emotions were when she first came here. Yet this country was also where she and Raven had gotten married, and it held a sp

    “Look at that!”Mette exclaimed excitedly, making Martha pause while arranging Mette’s hair. Mette leapt from her chair and approached Gia, who had just entered the room.Gia entered, already dressed in the party attire Sophie had prepared for her. Sophie had instructed her to style her hair and makeup to perfection. The makeup was soft and subtle, enhancing Gia’s beauty without being overwhelming.Gia wore the red dress Sophie had selected the day before. It was slightly longer than knee-length and had open sleeves. Detailed floral embroidery and sequins adorned the V-shaped bodice extending to her waist.The dress gave Gia an intimidating aura and amplified her presence. Her petite frame seemed taller by a few centimetres, making her appear more striking than usual.Perhaps that added height was due to the high heels she wore. Though not as extreme as the killer heels from a few days ago, they were still tall enough. More importantly, Gia felt comfortable in these moderately high he

    Gia brushed off the clumps of dirt stuck to the hem of her pants. She then rubbed the soles of her shoes against the grass to dislodge the muddy soil clinging to them.It rained heavily last night, leaving the ground today covered in leftover mud. However, the mud didn’t pose a problem for Mette.Mette’s schedule today involved attending another charity event. Unlike yesterday’s event, which focused on illnesses, today’s organization was dedicated to environmental conservation and sustainability.At the event, Mette donated a significant sum of money to purchase tree saplings to be planted worldwide. The donation was enough to buy millions of saplings.Mette had to step onto the soil and plant a tree in a designated spot as part of the symbolic donation ceremony, including documentation and other formalities. This was why Gia’s shoes and pants got dirty.Once the event concluded, Gia was responsible for cleaning Mette’s shoes, which were in a similar condition.Earlier, a rather amusi

    When Gia received Natalie’s schedule for Mette, she didn’t pay much attention. That was a mistake because the schedule for the visit was packed, and Mette enthusiastically followed every event, as she was used to such a busy pace.Once the official welcoming ceremony at the palace was over, Mette and Haakon parted ways. Mette accompanied Queen Silvia, while Haakon had separate engagements with King Gustaf.Matteo was supposed to shadow Haakon, staying true to his undercover role. However, Matteo chose to stay with Gia due to their unique situation. Haakon’s actual bodyguard didn’t comment on Matteo joining Mette’s entourage instead.After just two events, Gia’s feet began to protest. Her admiration for Natalie soared as she watched the girl stand all day in those shoes and still move effortlessly. Meanwhile, Gia’s toes were starting to burn, screaming for freedom.The bad news was that Mette’s schedule was only halfway done. They were attending a luncheon hosted by a brain cancer rese

    "Yes. Just a few days ago,” Gia answered smoothly, without hesitation. Quite convincing.“And you?” Martha pointed at Matteo. “What happened to Dion?”Gia didn’t know who Dion was, but based on the context, he seemed to be Haakon’s usual bodyguard.“He’s sick. Resting,” Matteo answered coldly and briefly.The sunglasses hid almost all of his facial expressions. The other bodyguard glanced at Matteo. He surely knew it was a lie, but he didn’t interfere.“Really? I didn’t know he was sick. He seemed fine yesterday,” Martha said, looking surprised. She trusted Matteo but was puzzled by the sudden illness.“A severe flu,” Matteo added to clear Martha’s remaining doubts.“What about Natalie?”After hearing Matteo’s reasonable explanation, she turned back to Gia. This time, Gia knew that Natalie was the name of Mette’s usual assistant.“She had a sudden family emergency. They couldn’t be left alone. She left unexpectedly yesterday.”Gia inwardly groaned as she realized she had unintentional

    Svvere laughed as he listened to Gia’s criticism.“It’s not pleasant at all. I hate it too,” Svvere said.“Does it have to be like this every year?” Gia questioned the gloomy tradition, secretly wishing Svvere didn’t have to go through it annually. It would be too sad if he did.Svvere nodded with exaggerated enthusiasm. “It’s annoying, isn’t it? But thankfully, Mamma replaced it with another party.”“What do you mean?”“When the formal party ends, Mamma hosts a second birthday party the next day. It’s more relaxed, with just cousins and a few close relatives attending.”“That’s wonderful!”Svvere nodded and smiled, knowing the additional party was meant to cheer him up. No wonder he grew up to be such a cheerful young man despite enduring such odd traditions. Mette had ensured that Svvere’s childhood was as normal as possible.Gia’s admiration for Mette grew a little more. At first, she had judged the family for holding such a stiff and formal birthday party.But while they adhered t

    Gia hugged Al one more time before handing him over to Marlow. Sophie and Marlow would take care of them. Eventually, Marlow was summoned back to Geirangerfjord, leaving Sophie unable to handle them alone.Fortunately, Al and Frey no longer relied heavily on breast milk since they ate complementary foods. The frozen breast milk supply was also enough to last for a week.Frey immediately reached out his hand as soon as Gia freed hers. He always felt jealous whenever his older brother received more attention, whether from Gia or Raven.Sensing Gia’s unease, the little girl nestled her head against Gia’s neck and wrapped her arms around it in silence, offering comfort and reassurance.“I’ll be back soon, sweetheart. Wait a little longer. I’ll bring Daddy home,” Gia whispered.Frey missed Raven the most. He often cried and became fussy at night, his only way to express how much he missed his father. Gia understood the meaning behind those cries, which made her feel even more devastated.W

    “I think this works,” Sophie said, pulling out two suits—one in blue and the other in black. "Go ahead, try them on."Gia nodded obediently and took the two suits into the fitting room. She complied because she understood the necessity of it all. After checking herself in the mirror twice, Gia finally nodded. The suits Sophie had chosen fit her petite frame perfectly."How is it?" Sophie asked."I think they’re fine," Gia replied."Great! Now all we need is to find a party dress.” With quick movements, Sophie handed the two formal suits to the sales assistant for processing."Add these too," Sophie said, pointing to two more outfits she had picked earlier.Gia was already content with the first two suits, but Sophie thought two were far too few. There was no point in arguing with Sophie about the number of clothes. Gia had to comply, or things would drag on unnecessarily.After paying for the purchases, they moved to another boutique specializing in evening and cocktail dresses.Choos

    While waiting for Haakon, they enjoyed lunch. Al and Frey needed extra attention during the meal. Mette happily took over Sophie’s role and helped feed Frey. Matteo, on the other hand, wasn’t exceptionally skilled at this.It was clear that Svvere adored Freya. As he sat beside his mother, watching her feed Frey, his eyes never left her. Several times, Gia noticed him gently stroking Frey’s head with affection.Svvere even tried feeding Frey himself, though his hands were clumsy. When he succeeded, he clapped his hands like he had just won a prestigious competition. Frey’s laughter matched Svvere’s excitement, filling the room with joy.Seeing this warmed Gia’s heart a little. She truly hoped that Haakon would provide the answer she was longing for.“She doesn’t want to anymore. You don’t need to force her,” Gia explained, noticing Svvere’s sad expression when Frey refused to open her mouth again.“Is she full?” Svvere asked.“And she’ll probably feel sleepy soon,” Gia replied, explai

    Mette’s residence was just as Gia remembered it, though perhaps a bit livelier now that flowers were beginning to bloom in the garden in front of the house. The last time she visited was during autumn when the garden looked much barer.“He’s the prince of Norway?” Matteo still seemed unable to believe that Gia could be close to someone of such stature. He had underestimated Lindgren’s influence before.Gia nodded. “Haakon, Mette’s husband, is the heir to the throne of Norway.”“Let’s see how this unfolds,” Matteo ended the discussion as the car stopped.Al clung tightly to Gia as they got out of the car. The boy always seemed uncomfortable in unfamiliar environments. On the other hand, Frey didn’t seem to care—especially since he was fast asleep in Matteo’s arms.The staff welcomed Gia the first time she visited. Today was special. She saw Mette standing at the main door; naturally, Svvere was with her.“Gia!” Svvere shouted, running toward her. The noise disturbed Frey, but Matteo ca
