Deasy held her head, feeling its heaviness. As she opened her eyes fully, she slowly sat up, trying to remember what had happened to her.

Then, one by one, flashes of the previous night's events began to play in her mind. Like a faulty cassette, it kept replaying, startling her.

"Deasy! What did you do last night?!" she exclaimed half-yelling. Peeking under the covers, she realized she was completely naked. "Oh my, did I make out recklessly again?" she half sighed while massaging her temple. "But who did I sleep with last night?"

Deasy tried to remember. She carefully thought through the scattered puzzle in her mind, and she was convinced that there was a handsome man she met last night who took her home to her apartment.

"I'm sure that the guy I slept with last night was really handsome. But who is he?" she asked herself uncertainly. Then she quickly tapped her own head. "Ohhh, Deasy. Why do you make it a habit to sleep with just anyone! You're still heartbroken, and yet you're doing

    It is uncertain how many times Deasy took a deep breath. While her mind suddenly recalled Veronica's words from yesterday, when they met at the coffee shop.Deasy closed her eyes tightly. After initially being indifferent, she suddenly felt worried for no reason. Afraid that Veronica's words might come true for her."Don't be crazy, Des. What if you get pregnant?""Oh, come on, Veronica. I only made out twice. Can I really get pregnant?""But you didn't use protection, did you?"Deasy shook her head."When you're drunk, you don't remember to use protection. The only thing on my mind that night was pleasure, pleasure, and pleasure. Plus, I wouldn't even know whether that guy finished inside or outside.""Oh my God..." Veronica exclaimed while shaking her head repeatedly. She never imagined that Deasy would be so random and reckless. "Be careful, or else I might hear that you're stressed and contemplating suicide because you suddenly got pregnant.""It's impossible," Deasy replied confi

    Lucas had just finished buttoning his work shirt. As he reached for his glasses, his phone started ringing. Glancing briefly, he saw the name 'Chief Morales' which was none other than his father's contact, displayed clearly on the screen.For a moment, Lucas just kept staring at it. Standing still, he listened to the phone ringing until it finally stopped.Oddly, when the sound from his phone ceased, Lucas breathed a sigh of relief. He acted as though his father's call was like a death sentence he had to worry about.Feeling safe, Lucas continued to get ready before heading to work. He was about to put on his watch when he jumped in surprise. His phone was ringing again, non-stop this time, almost as if it demanded to be answered immediately.Lucas was well aware of his father's nature. The man behaved just like a moody teenager who insisted on terrorizing his girlfriend when their call was intentionally left unanswered. Besides, Lucas knew exactly what his father was going to discuss

    "Can't we just skip the invitation altogether?"Deasy sounded lazily exasperated. At the moment, Veronica deliberately dropped by her apartment to pick her up and take her to the event.Both of them received invitations to attend a grand party. As women holding leadership positions, their presence was eagerly awaited by the host."You're unusually lazy. Back when we were colleagues, you used to be the first one to attend these invitations. You even went to the salon just to look the trendiest and outshine other staff or managers."Deasy, who was sitting on the sofa, let out a long sigh. Her eyes glanced at Veronica, who was also dressed neatly, ready to go to the party."Just not in the mood. In the past, when we went together, I wanted to show off my charm to young bosses or rich kids who attended these formal events.""Well, what's different now?""The difference is that there are rarely good-looking young bosses who attend these official events now. Most of them are old guys. So, w

    "Mr. Lucas, do you want me to drive, or will you take the car yourself?"Felix observed Lucas as he prepared and put on his shoes. In a few minutes, the six-pack-bodied man was going to attend the subsidiary company's inauguration, as his father had instructed.Even though he was reluctant, Lucas couldn't really avoid it. Especially tonight, he had to go and bring Devina along with him."I'll drive myself. You can head directly to the event. We'll meet there.""Mr. Lucas, do you want to stop by somewhere first?"Lucas nodded. Rising from his seat, he reached for the key to the sports car that Felix handed to him."Yes, I have to pick up Devina first. The tribal chief will be angry if his beloved future son-in-law forgets to pick her up."Unconsciously, Felix laughed. Sometimes, he felt sorry for his boss. At his relatively mature age, Lucas had to bow to his father's decisions, whether it was about his career or life partner.What could he do? As the son and heir of the family, Lucas

    Confused as he was suddenly pulled, Lucas turned around. The man froze for a moment when he saw the familiar face of Deasy."You..."For a few moments, Deasy was taken aback. She stared at the handsome man she had just called "darling" as if experiencing déjà vu.In her mind, Deasy was quite sure that the man she was looking at was the same guy she met a few days ago and invited for a one-night stand at her apartment.Oh my, he's the handsome prince I saw that night. So, I wasn't dreaming, right?"Are you...""Deasy... is this your new boyfriend for real?"Before Deasy could fully recover from her shock and finish her response, another man's voice interrupted and questioned at the same time.Daniel, Deasy's ex-boyfriend, looked equally surprised. He showed a mixture of bewilderment and doubt as he saw the man Deasy had just called and pulled to face them both."Y-yes," Deasy replied, nodding. Trying not to show her nervousness, she boldly and recklessly held the hand of the man she ha

    A week had passed, but Deasy couldn't stop thinking about the handsome man she accidentally met at the inauguration event of the company's branch where she worked.Until this moment, she kept praying. Hoping that God would bring them together again and, if possible, they could develop a close relationship. Maybe they could date, or even take it to a serious level like marriage.For the sake of God, Deasy was willing. In her mind, she even imagined that even if she got pregnant, she would happily bear the child of a handsome man like Lucas.Remember! Lucas, the handsome one. With a six-pack body and undoubtedly smelling good. Not the nerdy, thick-glasses-wearing guy who wasn't attractive from any angle.Even though Lucas Orion insisted that he was the one Deasy had made out with twice, she still believed that the handsome Lucas was the one who slept with her the last night.It didn't matter to Deasy if Lucas Orion was the one who had tattoos of betta fish, catfish, or piranhas all over

    "Pa... are you sure about introducing Lucas to all the staff and executives at Quantum Tech today?""What's wrong? Aren't you ready?"Before heading to the office, Lucas made a deliberate stop at his father's residence. Today, as instructed, he would be introduced for the first time as the new leader.According to the agreement of the company executives and commissioners, Lucas was chosen to replace Andreas Morales and take over the leadership of Quantum Tech, which was a subsidiary of the Dalton Group.Actually, as the youngest son and the most competent heir, Lucas was destined to be chosen as his father's successor sooner or later. Moreover, the leadership position at Quantum Tech had been vacant for the past year.However, Lucas did not expect it to happen so soon. It's not that he was unprepared. Lucas just thought that there were still many important tasks that he had not yet taken responsibility for or completed."It's not about being unprepared or unwilling. It's just that the

    "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

    "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.
