Hayle's eyes widened as she tried to read the mysterious man who stopped just a few feet in front of her. His gaze remained unrelenting. But, just as suddenly as their encounter began, the man walked away without a word, leaving behind a whirlwind of unanswered questions.

For a few moments after the man disappeared, the dark aura he brought with him lingered. Hayle had to catch her breath, clutching her still-pounding chest. It might have seemed exaggerated, but that's how she felt.

"Doctor? Here's your steak."

"Oh! Yes?!" Hayle was startled by the cafeteria attendant's arrival, who frowned again. "Thank you." Hayle tried to smile, but her eyes drifted back to the corridor where the man had disappeared.

Who was he?

Why did she feel so threatened?

Hayle shook her head again. Ever since she started this journey, she had become more anxious about her surroundings. Yes, the man was nobody, and it was just a coincidence that he looked at her! She didn’t know him, they had never met, and on

    "Ahk! Who does she think she is, acting like that towards me!" Sonia fumed as she watched Hayle walk away."There, there, darling. Why are you here all of a sudden?" Lucas asked, approaching his fiancée, gently holding her arms and rubbing them softly, trying to calm her down.Sonia narrowed her eyes and shot him a sharp look, her strong features becoming even more pronounced with her stern expression."Why shouldn't I be here? This hospital belongs to my family! What were you two doing in here?!" Sonia snapped. Of course, she felt extremely jealous. Lucas and Hayle had just ended their relationship a few months ago. She was naturally afraid that Lucas might still have feelings for Hayle, and even the slightest provocation from Hayle could make Lucas go back to her. She didn't want to lose the most perfect man in her eyes."Nothing. We weren't doing anything. We just happened to be in the same room. You don't need to be angry. Haven't I chosen you, Sonia?""That woman must have done i

    "Should we try to wake her up, Sir?" Roberto asked, accompanying Jaxter in watching Hayle, who was still deeply asleep on the bed. They kept a considerable distance to observe her. That was all the man had been doing so far."No need. Have you found out who sent them?" Jaxter asked, looking at Roberto slowly."Yes. It's the fiancée of Miss Hayle's ex-boyfriend. She asked them to teach Miss Hayle a lesson. She is the daughter of the director who owns the hospital where Miss Hayle works," Roberto explained what he had found out.Jaxter just nodded slowly and stood up from his seat. "Warn her and arrange for security here until she wakes up.""Yes, Sir." Roberto immediately followed Jaxter's steps as he now walked out of the room, leaving Hayle alone in the hotel room."How could you not do anything to her?!" shouted Sonia with an angry face. She thought the thugs she had hired had given Hayle a good lesson to make her regret ever defying Sonia."What do you mean how could?! Our lives we

    "God, I'm doomed!" Jacob hit his head hard, the sound echoing through his office. His body slumped into his office chair, his face a picture of panic and bewilderment. "How can this be negative! Ahk! Whose child is this?" he muttered in a panic.He felt like dying right then. His panic surged suddenly, making his body feel incredibly hot. Whose seed had been planted in his friend's womb if the DNA test results between Lucas and the baby were only 24%?"Damn it! What should I do?" Jacob ruffled his always neat hair, trying to think of a way to prevent this situation from getting worse. Unfortunately, his mind was drawing a blank. How was he supposed to tell Hayle this?Jacob was silent for a moment. His face showed that he was processing all this information in his head, which felt like it was about to explode. Then, suddenly, his tense face wrinkled, as if he had just thought of something.Yes! Why not do that! That was the best solution. Hayle would get what she wanted, and no one wo

    "It's impossible!" said Hayle, looking visibly shocked by what she had just heard. "But the sample had your name on it!" Hayle couldn't have taken the wrong sample. She had even checked it thoroughly.Lucas took a deep breath, his face contorted in anguish. He wanted to say something, but couldn't find the words."It can't be true, right? You just said that to make me terminate my pregnancy because you prefer Sonia over me and this baby?! You coward!" yelled Hayle, growing increasingly frustrated, pushing Lucas's body away from her with such force that he staggered. She then quickly ran away from him and briskly walked out of the room.Hayle immediately felt disoriented. She held her lower abdomen, which felt slightly tense. Trying to breathe easier because she had been feeling uncomfortable around him since earlier. Hayle stopped in a small hallway where she felt safe to calm herself down. She regulated her hurried breaths with her pounding heart. No! It's impossible! There's no way

    "Jacob!" Hayle shouted, her voice trembling as she tried to contain her emotions, "What is this? How did this happen?!"The woman's face grew redder, her eyes blazing with fiery emotion. She glared at Jacob with a piercing stare, making him feel uneasy. Hayle had never been angry with him before, and now she seemed furious.Jacob just stared back at Hayle, his face a picture of confusion. He didn't know why the test results hadn't been replaced by Juli's yet. His entire head felt itchy now. Ah, foolishness Why hadn't he checked it earlier?"Jacob, about that?" Jacob hesitated, searching for the right words to explain the situation. He stood up from his seat, looking at Hayle with regret and confusion."Jacob!" Hayle exclaimed again, her mind racing. She tried to keep her emotions in check, knowing it wasn't good for her child, but the heat in her temples made her voice rise, "I need an explanation!"Hayle's hand clenched, her eyes piercing Jacob. Jacob swallowed hard, his eyes fixed o

    "Ah Good, everything is fine. Your pregnancy is also fine. This might be because you're too emotional. So, control your emotions!" Jacob pressed the ultrasound machine on Hayle's lower abdomen, which still felt a bit crampy but not as severe as before. After he lay her down on the examination table, her condition improved significantly.Hayle took a deep breath and looked at what was on the monitor. She watched closely because she didn't fully trust this man anymore. Luckily, what Jacob said was true."But you need to do a lot of bed rest. I think your pregnancy is a bit weak." Jacob looked at her again. Although it wasn't a problem now, but the cramps in the lower abdomen during early pregnancy are a sign that something is not right. "So, what?" Jacob asked, putting down the ultrasound machine and looking at his friend's face, which was actually quite attractive. Hayle should be able to get another man instead of being stuck with Lucas."I don't know." Hayle exhaled and quickly turne

    13“Hah?!” Hayle opened her eyes, which immediately widened in shock. She quickly sat up and realized she was lying on a large bed in a room that was slightly ominous, yet in a brief glance, it seemed luxurious.Hayle immediately became alert. She scanned the room, finally realizing she was left alone in it. She slowly got down from the bed, feeling her body shiver due to the cold air in the room. Slowly, she looked at everything in the room, starting from all the doors to the window that showed the scorching sunlight.It was already morning. It seemed she hadn't woken up all night. No wonder her stomach was extremely hungry and almost nauseous.Hayle tried to open each window in the room. Unfortunately, all of them were closed and couldn't be opened at all. The only hope for her to get out of the room was the carved door that was quite large.She walked quietly so no one would notice she was awake. However, just as she was about to reach the door, it suddenly opened, making Hayle jum

    "Are you not eating?" Jaxter immediately entered Hayle's room, where Hayle was lying on the bed.Hayle, seeing the man's arrival, tried to calm down. It wasn't because he was afraid; he was just exhausted from vomiting repeatedly."I think you don't want to eat because it's bothering you. I also want to eat But my body won't let me!" Hayle said firmly, with a hint of annoyance. It was easy for this man to say that. He didn't feel it."You must eat!" Jaxter insisted. For him, it didn't matter what happened. What was important was that Hayle had to eat because he needed energy to keep his baby healthy."I don't want to My stomach is not feeling well!" Hayle remained in his position, wrapping his entire body with a lavender-scented white blanket, which was enough to calm him down.Jaxter took a deep breath, trying to calm down his anger. "Eat when you can eat. Don't risk your baby!" Jaxter certainly didn't know what else to do. If he didn't remember that there was a baby inside this woma

    "How was it?" asked Hayle approaching her husband. Seeing Jacob only gave her a faint smile. Of course it made Hayle very curious. How did the man meet his wife.Actually Hayle really wanted to witness it. But, she had her own business to take care of Zave's lecture that she had promised a few weeks ago. Therefore, she could not cancel this."They just talked for a while." Jaxter answered his wife's curiosity."And then? What did they talk about? Did they talk about bringing Rui?" Hayle with a very curious face.There was actually one thing that made Hayle a little worried about all this. They were going to take Rui and keep the two of them apart. Because after all Hayle -she knew this was very selfish- had taken care of and loved Rui with all her heart."I don't know what they're talking about. I wasn't inside with them.""Ha?" Hayle wrinkled her forehead with an incredulous face. "Why aren't you even with them. I want to know what they're talking about." Hayle was really upset why e

    "You put her in the Isolation room?" Jacob asked with a deep frown on his face."It's better to keep her from escaping. There are many things that will happen if she gets out of here. I don't think I need to explain, do I?" Jaxter seemed to just stare straight at the hallway that would lead them to a room that was quite secluded there.Jacob played with his lips. He slowly walked, fortunately Jaxter was understanding enough to match his pace."Thank you for hosting her here." Jacob lifted the corner of his lips before glancing at the man whose facial water had not even changed. "I know that you intentionally put her here for her own good too. You must know that her enemies are everywhere. Even my family is after her.""I just wanted to fulfill my wife's wish. To live in peace." Jaxter didn't seem to care what Jacob said. They stood in front of the steel door that was tightly closed."You can imprison him anywhere. Maybe underground, in a secluded place. You could have even just elimin

    "Rui a lot of things happened before you were born. Both your adoptive family and your biological family. We may not be able to be like most parents. Our previous lives will leave you dumbfounded. But, you don't have to think about what happened before you were born. I just want to say, whatever ever happened to me, I will do it again as long as I can get a daughter like you." Jacob held the princess's hand very tightly. Staring at her hazel nets that looked so beautiful and drowning."I knew you would ask about what happened to your real mother." Jacob pursed his lips. He took a deep breath and grabbed something from the nightstand drawer beside his bed. That made him frown. "This is a picture of your mother. I don't want you to not know her."Jacob handed over the cell phone he took earlier. He asked Roberto to find any photos of Ice that might still exist. And, luckily, there was one of her when she was still undercover in Laurence's group.Rui took the cell phone in her father's ha

    "Eh? You." Rui was startled when she came out of her father's hospital room and saw the figure of a man who seemed to be walking towards her place."Yes. I heard your father was taken to the hospital, is he okay?" asked Arzhiel who immediately came to this hospital when he heard the news."Yes. But he's fine, he just woke up." Rui smiled faintly at this man who could make her heart feel uneasy."So, why aren't you inside?" Arzhiel wrinkled his forehead. "Do you want to do something?""No, I didn't. Mrs. Hayle and Clay's father wanted me to go out for a moment. They want to talk to Jacob's father. So I'll just go out." Rui said it in a slightly mischievous tone. I don't know, it's hard to act casual in front of people we like."Oh, I see, so I can't go in there yet either." Arzhiel looked at the door of the room. "I saw this little cafe near the hospital garden. It's not far, want to wait there instead?"Rui hearing that was a little startled and raising her eyebrows, she nodded slowly

    "Rui ...." Hayle stared at her daughter to which Rui immediately responded."Yes? Mom?" Rui showed a subtle streak on her face, following the question that fell from her lips."I know that Rui probably has many things to ask. But, is it okay if you, Mom, and Jacob's father talk first?" Hayle gently tried to give understanding to her daughter. She knew that it was not difficult to usually talk to this sweet girl.Rui pursed her lips and nodded for a moment. Although there were indeed a lot of questions in her head but Rui couldn't force herself to stay there. One of her principles said that it was better not to know what she shouldn't know. Or maybe not yet.Jacob smiled proudly at how the princess behaved. Although he was reluctant to release the delicate grip of his daughter. But it was something they had to do. The three of them stared at Rui's departure who soon disappeared behind the door of the infirmary."I'm glad you guys took care of her to become such a great girl. I don't th

    The door slowly opened. Making all the hearts of the people outside the door beat faster.When Jacob saw the figure of a woman sitting at the end of a fairly narrow room, on an old-looking bed. Curled up as if frightened with her hair loose over her face.Jacob frowned, not really having any expectations about how the woman who was predicted to be his wife was doing."Ice." Hayle walked into the room. Leaving the two men who seemed to be still observing the situation inside Ice's hospital room.As usual, Hayle sat at the end of the bed closest to her. Always trying to communicate well with the woman who never even looked at her."I'm here again, but this time I'm not alone with my husband. Would you like to see who came with us?" Hayle said it as gently as possible. It was always like that if she was dealing with this woman because according to Hayle, that was how to treat someone like this Ice.But, even though Hayle had seduced the woman. Of course Ice didn't seem to understand what

    "Good morning!" the cheerful, friendly voice filled the room where Hayle was on duty, if not the kitchen.The woman raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly. "Good afternoon, Jac.""Yes! Yes! No need to emphasize it. But it's early in Alaska. I guess it is." Jacob rubbed his face. He still looked sleepy."The time difference between here and there is only an hour Jac, so I guess it's already daytime in Alaska." Hayle shook her head. Even at this age, she still couldn't let go of her innocence."Yeah. Every now and then make me happy Hayle by just following what I say." Jacob made a little annoyed face at being corrected by this woman."Eat your breakfast, or actually brunch. After that take your medicine. You have to take it, right?" Hayle said. Yesterday she saw him taking his medicine after their warm dinner."Not really. It's just for pain relief. Yesterday's flight made my leg ache, so I took it. It's quiet, even though four bullets have gone through my body. I'm overall very healt

    "Why did you say something like that earlier Jax?" asked Hayle who glanced at her husband as she rubbed lotion all over her body after she finished putting on her clothes after cleaning herself."About what?" Jaxter took off the shirt he was wearing one by one. After his wife it was time for him to take a shower."About Ice."Jaxter did not answer immediately. Tickling the curiosity and attention of Hayle who immediately tried to see what happened to her man's face."Do you still suspect that Ice might betray us again?" Hayle asked."There's no harm in being on guard. We already have the life we dreamed of all this time, I won't let a single person ruin it." Jaxter glanced at his wife with a rather sharp gaze. Making Hayle unable to say anything. In a life like the one they lived. Tranquility was a high price they had to pay with so many sacrifices before."So about when will you let us see him. I'm sure Jacob and Rui will want to see Ice." Hayle tried to be cooperative with her husba

    "At first I can't remember anything, I woke up in a hospital bed in Hawaii. All I knew was that my whole body was in a lot of pain and I couldn't get out of bed at all. The doctor who treated me said that I had been in a coma for more than half a year." Jacob recounted what he experienced after what happened to him. Everyone in the house was silent, they were listening to what this man was saying. Even so, his hand continued to hold Rui's hand."Then when did you get your memories?" asked Arzhiel who was even more curious about this man's story. Moreover, what he knew was that this man was not in an accident as told by his parents. Instead, he was attacked by people they didn't know."It took a long time for me to remember. About 3 years after the incident, I had a serious memory disorder. I even forgot everything. And, suddenly I woke up with a terrible headache, then I remembered my name and some glimpses of my previous life.""At that moment you remembered Rui?" asked Hayle now who
