The next day in front of the house which Markus has given. The lock clicked open with a soft turn of the key, and the heavy wooden door swung inward, revealing the dimly lit foyer of Valeria’s new home. The scent of polished wood and fresh linen lingered in the air, untouched by the presence of life until now.Valeria hesitated for a moment, standing in the doorway with the keys still in her grip. It felt surreal, walking into a house that was hers, one that didn’t belong to Markus, one that held no memories of a loveless marriage. Bella nudged her forward with a playful shove. “Well? Don’t just stand there. Go in, the place is yours.”With a small, steadying breath, Valeria stepped inside. The space was vast yet warm, sunlight filtering in through sheer curtains, casting golden patterns on the dark hardwood floors. It was elegant, refined—just like everything Markus touched—but it lacked his presence. And that, she realized, was what made it truly hers.Bella followed closely behind,

The cab weaved through the bustling city streets, its headlights cutting through the early morning haze. Valeria sat in the backseat, her hands resting over her stomach as she gazed out the window, watching the city she was about to leave behind. ‘Finally I will be out soon. Away from all of this mess.’ Beside her, Bella fidgeted with her phone before turning to Valeria with a playful huff. "Are you sure you’re ready for this?" she asked, concern laced in her voice. Valeria offered a small smile, though it didn’t quite reach her eyes. "I have to be." Bella sighed dramatically, crossing her arms. "I still don’t like the idea of you going there alone. What if your boss is some grumpy old man who overworks his employees?" A soft chuckle escaped Valeria’s lips. "Then I guess I’ll have to charm my way through the job. Haha, i wish you knew what kind of person Adrian Reed is. Would have been easier to do the things and to decide easily.”The cab pulled up to the airport entrance, and

Valeria stepped into the towering glass building, her heels clicking softly against the polished marble floor. The receptionist had already directed her to the top floor, where Adrian Reed’s office was located. With a steadying breath, she adjusted her blazer and knocked on the door. "Come in," a smooth, confident voice called out. She pushed the door open and stepped inside, expecting to see a middle-aged executive with graying hair and a stern expression. Instead, a man in his mid-thirties leaned casually against his desk, a playful smirk tugging at his lips. "You look surprised," he observed, eyes flicking over her face with amusement. Valeria blinked. "I— I just assumed—""That I’d be old?" He chuckled, shaking his head as he crossed his arms. "Happens more often than you’d think." She felt heat rise to her cheeks. "No, I just— I wasn’t sure what to expect."Adrian Reed was nothing like the corporate tycoons she had imagined. He was tall, well-built, and carried an effortless ch

Valeria stood outside Reed Corp, her arms wrapped around herself as the cool evening breeze brushed against her skin. The city lights flickered around her, illuminating the towering glass building behind her. ‘Why there is no cab around?’ She glanced at her phone, checking the time as she waited for her cab. Just then, a sleek black car pulled up beside her, the tinted window rolling down effortlessly.“Need a ride?” Valeria turned to see Adrian Reed, one hand casually resting on the steering wheel, his expression unreadable yet slightly amused.She hesitated. “Oh… no, thank you. I already called a cab.” Adrian arched a brow. “You’ve been standing here for nearly ten minutes. I doubt it’s coming anytime soon.” He gestured to the passenger seat. “Come on. It’s late. I’ll drop you off.” Valeria bit her lip, unsure. “I don’t want to trouble you.” she remarked. “It’s not trouble, Valeria,” he said smoothly. “I’m offering.” There was something about the way he said her name—steady, fami

As the car rolled to a stop in front of Valeria’s house, Adrian shifted in his seat, glancing at her. She looked tired—her eyelids drooping, her hand resting idly over her stomach as if in silent reassurance."We're here," he said gently, but Valeria only blinked slowly before nodding. She reached for the door handle, stepping out with a little more effort than usual. Adrian watched as she fumbled with the keys in her hand, swaying slightly. His brows furrowed in concern."Valeria—" Before he could finish, her knees buckled. "Shit!" Adrian was out of the car in an instant, catching her just before she collapsed onto the doorstep. One arm wrapped firmly around her waist while the other slid under her legs, lifting her effortlessly.Valeria gasped in surprise, her fingers instinctively clutching his shirt. "A-Adrian, I can walk—" she insisted. "Clearly not," he interrupted, his voice laced with both concern and frustration. "What the hell is wrong with you? You didn’t even eat properly.

Adrian reached for the water jug, his movements smooth and practiced as he poured a glass and set it in front of her. Valeria watched him carefully, a peculiar feeling gnawing at the back of her mind. ‘There is something about him—something familiar but I don’t know what?’She picked up her fork as Adrian placed a serving of pasta onto her plate. The steam curled upward, carrying the scent of garlic and fresh herbs, but her mind wasn’t on the food anymore.Instead, she found herself tilting her head, eyes narrowing slightly as she studied him. “Adrian…be honest with me.” she began slowly, twirling the fork between her fingers. “Have we met before?” His hand stilled mid-motion. It was brief, almost imperceptible, but Valeria caught it.Adrian recovered quickly, placing the serving spoon down before leaning back against the counter. He crossed his arms, his usual confident smirk slipping into place, but something flickered in his eyes—something guarded. “We went to the same college,” he

[A few months later]"What do you mean by this, huh? Is this some kind of joke?" Markus yelled at the man who stood in front of him quietly, the atmosphere of the room had suddenly gotten chilly since the secretary broughtup the news. Markus had no clue why that would ever happen. The news had shaken him to the extent that he started wandering in the office."I'm sorry sir, but the news is absolutely true." He shot up from his seat and shouted at the man again, while Markus snatched the tablet from his secretary’s hand and smashed it into the wall. Howcould the man swallow the big news that the only woman of his life, precisely his ex-wife, was getting married to someone!

Valeria could not move from her place upon seeing Markus right in front of her. He was hugging Adrian and seemed elated to be there as a guest. However, the moment when Markus glanced at her Valeria immediately knew that his intentions were not good. The way he locked his gaze with her, it was a malicious stare.The woman was unsure how she should proceed with the whole thing. She had to greet Markus as a stranger because Valeria hadn’t told Adrian about him. It was obvious from her horror struck face that Valeria was caught red handed for hiding stuff from her husband-to-be.Markus could potentially see that and winked at Valeria to bring her back from the nightmarish reverie. However, he was deeply depressed upon seeing Valeria’s bulging 6 months old pregnant

His father regarded him with a measured gaze, his expression unreadable. "And what exactly did she do to provoke such animosity from you, Gabriel?"Gabriel hesitated, the weight of his father's scrutiny bearing down on him. He knew he couldn't reveal the true extent of his feelings, the jealousy and resentment that simmered beneath the surface.

"Just...small disagreements that have escalated over time. I assure you, I have no personal vendetta against Bella. Not anymore.”But his father's piercing gaze seemed to see through his facade, a silent challenge in his eyes.

In the family kitchen, where Valeria, Liam, and Gabriel were seated around the table, savouring their breakfast together. Liam asked while glancing over his newspaper. “Lily, have you made any plans about when you're going to venture out to explore the cities?”Valeria spoke while sipping her tea. “I've been thinking about it, Dad. Maybe next month. I want to finalise a few things before I set off. Moreover, Lucas is still little.”Gabriel was forking a piece of pancake. “You sure you don't want some company? I can take some time off work. Martha is with Lucas and dad is with him too.”Valeria answered while smiling. “Thanks, Gabe, but I think I need to do this on my own. It's kind of a personal journey
