Deasy: Luc, it seems you don't need to come over. I have some last-minute business to attend to and must go. Let's meet later in the evening or after work.Lucas had just finished all the work that had piled up on his desk. He grabbed his suit and car keys, preparing to leave, when Deasy suddenly sent him a text message.As Lucas checked and read it carefully, it turned out that the lunch invitation from his girlfriend, which she had insisted on earlier, had to be postponed because Deasy had some unexpected business to attend to."Why, Sir? Why are you just standing there like that?" Felix, who was still faithfully in Lucas's office, asked. Felix was currently organizing some documents for Lucas to take to the meeting."Well," Lucas replied, "Deasy is being really indecisive. Earlier, she insisted that I hurry over to the restaurant. Now, as I'm ready to go there, she sends a message saying we won't be having lunch.""She canceled?" Felix responded in surprise."Yes," nodded Lucas. "S

Meanwhile, in a different location, at a Korean restaurant, Deasy sat quietly with an expression that was difficult to interpret. It was a mixture of confusion, surprise, and curiosity because suddenly, while waiting for Lucas, her boss, Andreas Morales, approached her for a serious conversation.During her nearly three years of working at Quantum Tech as a financial manager, Deasy had only met the owner of the Dalton Group a few times in person. She had also been involved in direct conversations with him only a handful of times. That's why she wondered what the reason and purpose of this conversation could be."Is your name Deasy Winterborne?"Andreas cast a scanning look over her, taking in every detail from head to toe. He scrutinized the woman who was currently close to his son."Yes, I'm Deasy Winterborne, Sir."Andreas smiled faintly."You're the financial manager at Quantum Tech and also the daughter of the late Anton Wolf, the owner of Amaris, right?"Deasy nodded, confirming

"Della, did you see Ms. Deasy?"Lucas appeared puzzled. Since he returned from the meeting, he hadn't seen Deasy in his office at all. He had some work to discuss with her, and her absence was starting to worry him.Even when Lucas tried to contact her as Lucas Orion, his girlfriend didn't respond. This made him both anxious and concerned."She's not in her office, Sir. It seems like she's gone out."Lucas nodded."For a while now? I noticed she hasn't been around for a bit. There's something important I want to discuss about work.""I'll try to find her and get in touch, Sir," Della said. "If I locate her, I'll let Ms. Deasy know to meet you in your office.""Yes, thank you very much for your help."After Della left the room, Lucas picked up his phone again. He checked repeatedly, hoping for a response from Deasy to the text messages he had sent.Lucas: Darling, where are you? Why aren't you answering my calls? Are you okay?Lucas: Darling? Hello? Please reply. Are you mad at me or s

After Andreas Morales left, Deasy sat there silently, her gaze empty. Her mind was busy thinking while digesting every word Andreas had said to her.There was pain.There was humiliation.How Andreas Morales's words had left a deep impact, cutting and cornering her."Do you think the Morales family wants a daughter-in-law like you, a cheap woman?""If not cheap, what should I call it then? What should we call a woman who willingly sleeps with a man, even multiple times without any official commitment? Because in reality, a dignified woman would never engage in such dirty acts."Deasy sighed deeply as she recalled this string of sentences. If only cursing parents didn't bring bad luck, she wished she could utter all the curses she knew.She admitted that she was wrong for engaging in a marital relationship without any formal commitment. But... it was all unintentional. Not exactly a mistake, as Deasy had moments when she felt addicted and repeated it.Yes, okay!She was wrong, and her

"For God's sake, I can explain everything."Entering their apartment unit, Lucas immediately pulled Deasy to sit on the sofa. He followed and deliberately sat right next to her while looking deeply into her eyes."First, I apologize. I sincerely apologize for not being honest with you from the beginning. But there are reasons for everything.""Oh, really? So, you lied for a reason?" Deasy replied with a skeptical expression."Please..." Lucas pleaded. "Please listen to me first until I finish. I'll explain everything step by step."Deasy nodded, allowing Lucas to continue his explanation."From the beginning, I didn't intend to deceive you. Seriously, even before we met, I was assigned by my father to investigate Forty-nine.""Investigate?"Lucas nodded. Eventually, he had to explain everything without any more concealment."I don't know if you've noticed or not, but in recent years, Forty-nine seemed to be successful on the surface. However, in reality, it was in deep financial troub

Just like A-list celebrities who can't escape the spotlight of the paparazzi and all sorts of news, the entire Quantum Tech staff seemed excited discussing the relationship between Lucas and Deasy.It all began when many pairs of eyes caught an incident where Lucas intentionally chased Deasy along the building corridor to the lobby. Eventually, he succeeded in intercepting her and pulled Deasy towards her car.This action raised many questions and perceptions. Almost every division considered this unusual moment as hot gossip that would be a great loss if not made the topic of conversation."You must be thrilled to be a trending topic in the office."Daniel addressed Deasy as they both entered the elevator. From his expression, the man who resembled Mr Bean appeared visibly annoyed. Perhaps he was tired of hearing the same gossip about his ex-girlfriend all day."Well, yeah," Deasy replied, tossing her hair deliberately. "I mean, I've become an instant celebrity.""But aren't you unco

Initially, according to the original plan, Deasy wanted to introduce Lucas to her mother on the next Saturday or any other holiday.However, due to the unexpected and sudden chaos after Andreas's arrival, Deasy decided to introduce Lucas to her mother today itself.Anyway, she wanted to quickly resolve each problem one by one. There should be no more obstacles or delays in her wedding plans with Lucas in the future. Regardless of any storm, Deasy had to marry that man."Mom, let me introduce. This is Deasy's new boyfriend."Diana Winterborne was taken aback. She didn't expect her daughter to suddenly visit with her new boyfriend.Diana remembered quite well. Some time ago, her daughter was sad for days, acting like a fickle teenager because she had to leave her boyfriend to get married."Deasy, why cry so much over this? It's not like there's only one guy in the world! If he's getting married, then fine, just find someone new. It's a waste to be pretty but not use it. Wasted!"Deasy i

"Now it's your turn to ask for permission from your parents, Luc."In Lucas's embrace, Deasy requested with emphasis, reminding him of what Lucas had promised earlier.Actually, Deasy knew it wouldn't be easy for Lucas to convince his father. When they met, Andreas had clearly given an ultimatum, staring in disgust, stating that he would never approve of their relationship for any reason.But this is what intrigued Deasy. She wanted this request as proof. Would Lucas be serious about fighting for her and their unborn child? Or would he hesitate and choose to follow his father's orders?"Yes, Sweetie. I'll talk to Dad soon. But speaking of permissions, why don't you be honest with Mom about your current pregnancy situation? You haven't been honest about my family not giving their approval."Deasy loosened her embrace, slightly straightening up while looking into Lucas's face."On purpose. Didn't you see my mom's face when she was so happy to hear that her old maid daughter is being cou

"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
Pregnant but Rejected as A Billionaire Wife 97. Being Normal
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.
