"Have you understood everything? If there's nothing else to ask, I have to go back, Son."Andreas, who had been talking in Lucas's office, was ready to leave. He reminded his son to focus on the new responsibilities he had been given."Alright, Dad. I've got everything.""Then I'll wait for Daniel and Daniel's reports as soon as possible. Hopefully, everything will be gradually settled next month, and after that, you can focus on preparing for the wedding."Lucas simply nodded. He was honestly not eager to discuss the topic of marriage with his father. However, to avoid a lengthy argument, he agreed with what was asked of him.Meanwhile, in the finance division's office, the staff members were gathered, talking excitedly. They were all busy gossiping about the new boss, who would begin his long-vacant duties today.Deasy herself appeared to be eavesdropping from her office. Somehow, she became interested in what her staff members were gossiping about this morning."Wow, our new boss i

Lucas continued to scrutinize one by one the financial data that Deasy had just given him yesterday. Currently, at his home, there's Felix, his assistant, along with three members of the audit team who are busy helping him. They checked repeatedly while looking for loopholes in the suspected embezzlement of funds committed by some staff members who have been working at Quantum Tech for many years.Having been left unchecked for years, Lucas just found out that the missing company funds had reached tens of billions of rupiah. No wonder his father's company suffered losses and almost went under. Lucas also realized that the dirty games within his father's company were quite well organized.It took him a long time to investigate. Out of several suspects, only two individuals were proven to have embezzled company funds. Unfortunately, those caught were involved in embezzling relatively small amounts.That's why this PR (problem or issue) was so draining for Lucas. He had to go undercover

Deasy closed her eyes while massaging her forehead repeatedly. In front of her was Veronica, who was there to keep her company.This weekend, she intentionally took Veronica out, to chat and have dinner together at a famous restaurant. She wanted to share the embarrassing incident she had just experienced with her friend."I'm so embarrassed, Veronica, really."Deasy let out a long sigh, while Veronica in front of her burst into laughter."And what were you doing on the first day of meeting your new boss? Instead of maintaining your composure and dignity, you went all out showing weird stuff.""Well, I just wanted to make sure," Deasy tried to defend herself."But did you have to show him your betta fish tattoo too, Des? That's insane! Lucas is your boss, you know. I bet he was shocked when you suddenly unbuttoned your shirt to show the kiss mark that he didn't even leave."Deasy's shoulders slumped. No matter what, she often acted recklessly. But for some reason, this time she felt i

On that afternoon, in the meeting room, Deasy appeared sulky. In the past few days, her mood had been fluctuating. It all started last weekend when she accidentally met Lucas at a restaurant.At first, she was overjoyed. Ecstatic because, once again, fate had brought her together with the handsome prince, the love of her life.However, just as she was about to approach Lucas, the atmosphere suddenly turned annoying and unpleasant. While they were engaged in conversation, another woman, equally beautiful and graceful, suddenly approached. She joined in, even unexpectedly getting close to Lucas with familiarity and intimacy.Unfortunately, in Deasy's eyes, the two of them looked so harmonious. One handsome, the other beautiful. A perfect match. My goodness, what kind of sight was this?Initially, Deasy wanted to protest. After all, she was the one who met Lucas first and wanted to get closer to him. Why was there suddenly this unfamiliar woman who just squeezed in? But after finding out

"Sir, how about it? Can we go to Mr. Andreas' office right now? He just contacted me."Felix had indeed helped take Lucas to the hospital to bring Deasy, who suddenly lost consciousness.While Lucas accompanied Deasy, who was receiving medical treatment from the emergency room team, Felix chose to wait for his boss in the car. However, after sixty minutes had passed, Lucas had not returned to the car.Felix naturally felt puzzled. As there was a scheduled meeting with Andreas Morales, who is Lucas' father, this afternoon, he decided to follow up. As he entered the hospital lobby, he found Lucas sitting quietly, looking down in front of the Emergency Room, as if pondering a serious problem."Sir..." called Felix in a slightly loud voice. But Lucas didn't pay any attention to him. "Is everything alright, Mr. Lucas?"Lucas, who was initially motionless, then looked up. He stared intensely at Felix, showing an expression that was difficult to interpret.For God's sake, Lucas seemed speech

At home, while sitting in his office lost in thought, Lucas appeared visibly restless. Anxious, troubled, and agitated.Throughout the afternoon, during his meeting with his father, Lucas was completely unfocused. His mind wandered, thinking about how to handle the issue of Deasy's pregnancy.Felix had promised to help him find a way out. That's why Felix was now standing there, waiting for Lucas to make a decision."I handled things at the hospital, sir. I made sure all the medical team, including the doctor who treated Deasy, keeps quiet about your knowledge of her current condition.""Okay, then what should I do now?"Felix approached, asking permission to sit down, and then faced Lucas, who was massaging his forehead."As planned, per your father's instructions, Lucas Orion must immediately return to Quantum Tech and start the process of resigning while Lucas Morales is away on duty in Singapore.""Okay... Lucas Orion indeed has to resign so Lunas Morales can be free to work at Qu

"Luc, are you really going to resign from Quantum Tech?"Several staff members from the finance division gathered in front of Lucas' desk. After learning that the bespectacled man intended to resign from the company, they all swarmed in, awaiting clarification and a more detailed explanation for why someone who had been dedicated to the finance department for over a year was now deciding to leave the company.Lucas' performance and career at the company had been impressive. He was even expected to receive a promotion soon to the position of assistant manager.However, just before the promotion could happen, Lucas made a decision that was highly surprising. Out of the blue, after returning from a few days of leave, he announced his decision to resign. It was ironic."Yes, it's final. Once I finish all my pending tasks at Quantum Tech, I'll be leaving.""But why so sudden?" Della asked, looking lost. She admitted that Lucas had willingly helped her with many of her tasks."Yeah," Androm

For the past three days, Deasy had secluded herself in her apartment. Taking advantage of the fact that she had suddenly fainted earlier, she chose not to go to work, citing illness as the reason. However, physically, Deasy was perfectly fine. It was her mental state that had been shaken after hearing the medical diagnosis. "You're pregnant, Deasy! Remember, you're P-R-E-G-N-A-N-T," she said, emphasizing each letter. "Finally, what you feared has happened. So, who are you going to hold responsible?" She had repeated that sentence countless times. Deasy tried to deny the reality that she was pregnant. Many thoughts crossed her mind, from finding a potential father to support and take responsibility, to hiring a husband or, worst of all, terminating the pregnancy. But one thing was for sure: Deasy did not want to marry Lucas Orion under any circumstances. "No," she shook her head repeatedly. "Even if it's doomsday, I will not marry Lucas Orion. No way!" Despite Lucas' earlier offe

"Welcome to Japan, Sweetheart."Deasy smiled broadly as she arrived and finally set foot in Japan. As a woman from an affluent family, traveling to Japan shouldn't have been difficult for her.Throughout her life, she had traveled to several countries, both for leisure and work-related purposes.However, despite visiting many countries in Europe and Asia, she had never had the opportunity to visit Japan. It was quite ironic.Now, after harboring this desire for so long, Lucas had granted it. Turning this special trip into a birthday gift made Deasy feel even more delighted."Thank you so much, Luc. As a husband and life partner, you truly go above and beyond. If I had ten thumbs, I'd give them all to you.""With my pleasure, Honey," Lucas replied when they had arrived in Japan and were now at the hotel. "Your happiness and Jonas's are my current life goals. Whatever it takes, I'll do it to make both of you happy.""But how did you kno

"Lucas, what surprise do you actually want to give, huh?" Deasy wondered. Just from her expression, her curiosity was so evident.Since waking up, Lucas had been treating her very specially. From being accompanied to bathe, to picking out clothes for her. Cooking her favorite breakfast menu. And of course, feeding her as usual.Actually, this often happened on ordinary days. What made it extraordinary was the presence of Veronica, Darwin, and Sean who were sitting in the dining room together with them this morning to enjoy breakfast.Deasy was certainly surprised. She never expected Lucas to invite his friends so early in the morning to visit and have breakfast together. Because usually, inviting people to celebrate birthdays always happened in the evening or at night. What was even more impressive was that their friends willingly came even though it was very early and on a holiday."Well, this is one of the surprises. Inviting your close friends to have

It's already eleven o'clock at night, but Deasy still hasn't seen Lucas, who hasn't come home all day.In all her time as a wife, Deasy has never known Lucas to come home late, let alone this late. Even if he had to work overtime, Lucas had never come home later than nine in the evening. So, where is her husband tonight?Deasy has tried multiple times to contact him and send text messages, but he hasn't responded to any of her attempts. He hasn't even answered her calls.Deasy has started to wonder if Lucas is so angry that he's decided not to come home. Or perhaps he's still spending time with Devina.Oh, this is just so frustrating!Speaking of Devina, why does it feel so suffocating to imagine that Lucas might actually be with his ex-fiancée? Deasy is not okay with her husband being with another woman, whoever she may be.Because of overthinking, Deasy is getting frustrated with herself. She's been waiting for Lucas, who still hasn

Although they hadn't known each other for long, Veronica could tell that Lucas was the type of guy who didn't easily get angry. So far, from the moment he tried to win over Deasy, Veronica believed that Lucas was a gentle and caring man who truly respected women.Back then, when Deasy intentionally tried to provoke him, hurling insults and even deliberate humiliation, Lucas wasn't offended or deterred in the slightest. He remained faithful and continued to try to win over Deasy, who was as stubborn as a rock.So, if he was angry now, Veronica was sure there must have been something that Deasy had done that had crossed the line. After all, people don't get angry and sulk for no reason."Well... no, it's not just that.""Then what?""This Joseph guy initially praised me. He said I looked prettier than before. So, the two of us started chatting about various things. We even discussed how he's still not married to this day. So, I casually asked him if

"Why is your face all scrunched up like that? Another fight? World War? Or what?"Having just met Deasy, Veronica could already guess what was happening with her friend. Deasy, who had been very busy, was called and asked to join her at their favorite coffee shop."Just annoyed," Deasy replied casually. Her face looked extremely sour. It was evident that she was not in a good mood."Annoyed about what again? Did Lucas ask for permission to get married again?"Deasy immediately looked up, glared at Veronica disapprovingly. She couldn't believe her longtime friend was talking so carelessly.Oh, Deasy forgot.Veronica's behavior was quite similar to her mother's. She often spoke without thinking and lacked empathy towards others."Gosh, you love speaking so recklessly, don't you?" Deasy scolded. She was clearly annoyed. "Don't forget how you used to talk when I first got married to Darwin. Your comments were way worse, Des."Deasy

Deasy continued to observe. She watched as Lucas, engrossed in playing with Jonas, interacted with him before heading off to work.This was indeed a routine that her husband always followed. No matter how busy or tired he was, Lucas made it a point to find time to play, chat, or carry Jonas around.The same applied to how he treated Deasy. Regardless of how occupied he was, Lucas always made an effort to give her attention.This morning, after playing with Jonas, Lucas still found time to have breakfast with Deasy. Instead of being overly dramatic, when Deasy asked to be fed, Lucas readily complied with his wife's request."Luc... Are you still angry?"Deasy intentionally inquired. Since the incident where Lucas had caught her engaging in a conversation with Joseph, her husband seemed deliberately silent.Yes, Deasy was aware that what she had done was a grave mistake. However, she had apologized repeatedly.Although he continued to s

Lucas: Honey, are you waiting for me right now? As soon as my client leaves, I'll come pick you up. I promise.Lucas waited anxiously for a response to the text message he sent to Deasy. He hoped his wife would understand and forgive his current situation.Deasy: Relax, Luc. I'm almost done here. I need to pick up some medicine and vitamins. Jonas is fine with me. When you're completely done with work, just come over here.Lucas: Alright, please be patient and wait for me. Later, we can have lunch together outside.Deasy: Sure, my beloved husband. I'll be waiting for your arrival.Earlier, Lucas had been in a meeting. Once his work was finished and he made sure his client had left the office, he quickly grabbed his car keys and prepared to pick up Deasy.Lucas knew today was the day their son was scheduled for vaccinations at the hospital. He had also promised his wife that, no matter how busy he was, he would make time to pick them up from

"Hey, Dad. How's it going? Sorry I couldn't visit sooner. This time, Deasy came to visit you along with the new addition to the family."Deasy smiled as she touched the gravestone with Anton Winterborne's name inscribed on it. Three months after giving birth, she finally had some free time to visit her father's grave, and once again, she was accompanied by her beloved mother, Diana.Before this, Deasy had visited her father's grave a few times shortly before giving birth. Today, she intentionally stopped by when Jonas had just turned three months old."Say hi, Dad. Deasy's new bodyguard is named Jonas. Jonas Fernando Morales. He's three months old now. If you look closely, he has a resemblance to you."Diana, sitting beside Deasy, smiled too. She touched her husband's gravestone and started talking, just like Deasy."Your favorite princess finally has a child, Dad," the woman said casually. "I bet you never thought that the spoiled, lazy, food-lovi

After waking up from his long slumber a while ago, Lucas immediately called the medical team to examine Deasy's condition.Since he was allowed to watch, Lucas continued to observe how the doctor was currently examining each of his wife's bodily functions and ensuring that everything was in good condition."How is it, doc?" Lucas asked after the doctor finished the examination."Congratulations, Mr. Lucas. Finally, Mrs. Deasy is fully conscious. After reevaluation, I can assure you that her condition is very good and normal. For the time being, let her undergo intensive treatment in the hospital for a day or two. If her progress continues to be good, there's a possibility she can come home soon."After hearing the doctor's explanation, Lucas hurriedly approached Deasy, who was lying down. Without saying much, the shadowy-eyed man immediately embraced her. He held her tightly, as if pouring out the longing that had accumulated so high in the past few days.
