Under the shadow of a large tree, a figure stood motionless, blending into the darkness. But Lydia still felt the need to stay fully covered—her scarf wrapped around her head, oversized sunglasses hiding most of her face.She spoke in a hushed voice, though no one was around to hear her. "Why did you call me out here? What do you want?"Lydia had been standing in this spot for quite some time before finally picking up her phone to make the call. Ever since she had been thrown out of Layson’s office, things had gone from bad to worse. Her agency had terminated her contract almost immediately. She had thought she was untouchable in the modeling industry, that she would always have a place. But she had underestimated Layson Norman.And now, she was paying the price.The woman on the other end of the line had reached out to her first. Initially, Lydia had blamed her for the bad intel, assuming she had been set up. But in reality, it was her own miscalculation that had led to her downfall.

The family doctor arrived at Adela’s place and checked Herbie’s temperature. It was a mild fever, nothing too serious, so she was given an injection to help bring it down. After making sure she was settled in bed, Adela finally stepped out of the bedroom. The doctor had already left, but to her surprise, Layson was still there.She frowned slightly as she walked toward him. “You’re still here?”Hearing her voice, Layson finally looked up from his phone, where he had been sending out some emails. A small smirk curled at his lips. “You sound way too eager for me to leave.”Adela blinked, caught off guard. That wasn’t what she had meant at all. She opened her mouth to explain, but before she could say a word, Layson suddenly reached out and pulled her onto his lap.She gasped, barely managing to stop herself from screaming.“What are you doing?!”The closeness between them was too much—too intimate. It wasn’t like they hadn’t been this close before, but somehow, this time felt… different

Marah walked carefully along the uneven, rocky path, her high heels making it even harder to balance. The slums were nothing like the city—filthy, chaotic, and filled with an unbearable stench. The summer heat only made it worse, intensifying the odor in the air. Wrinkling her nose in disgust, she covered it with her hand and mumbled under her breath, “What kind of hellhole is this?”She had recently found out that Adela used to live in this place. For the longest time, she had struggled to dig up any useful information about her, so she finally decided to come see for herself. But now, standing in the middle of this run-down neighborhood, Marah was genuinely shocked. She had never set foot in a place like this before—it was completely outside her world.The slums were small, and any outsider stood out like a sore thumb, especially someone like Marah. Dressed in her expensive outfit, she looked completely out of place. A group of women, sitting in the shade snacking on sunflower seeds

The summer sun was relentless, pouring down its heat as if trying to smother everyone under its rays. The air was thick and almost suffocating, but stepping inside the mall was like entering a whole different world. The air conditioning immediately cooled their flushed skin, offering a much-needed escape from the sweltering heat outside.Adela walked into the mall with Herbie, glancing around at the bustling crowd. It was a weekend, so the place was packed with families and kids running around. There seemed to be some kind of special event going on, judging by the festive decorations and activity booths set up all over the first floor.She scanned the area but didn’t see Diana anywhere yet. Deciding to wait for her, Adela was just about to step into a children’s theme restaurant when a familiar voice called out from behind.“Mom! Herbie!”Both she and Herbie turned around to see Ralph running toward them, his face beaming with excitement. Right behind him was Diana, wearing a warm smi

The wheel slowed down, ticking from one section to another, and finally, it stopped.The moment it landed on the grand prize—a pair of high-tech roller shoes—the crowd erupted into cheers.The event host knelt beside Ralph, grinning as he held up the microphone. “Wow! Our little champ here is super lucky! He just snagged our biggest prize on his first try! Are you happy, buddy?”Ralph tried to maintain a cool expression, but his excitement was obvious. His eyes sparkled as he stood on tiptoe and waved toward Adela. “Mom! I won first prize!”The host chuckled, amused by the little boy’s enthusiasm. He leaned in and handed Ralph the mic. “Looks like someone wants to share his happiness with his mom. Go ahead, kiddo—say something to your mom!”Without hesitation, Ralph grabbed the mic and shoute

Dexter rushed into the hospital, his breathing heavy from running all the way inside. The emergency room light was still red, signaling that Adela and Herbie were still being treated. His heart pounded in his chest as he spotted Diana sitting in a chair, holding a trembling Ralph in her arms."Mom, how are they?" Dexter asked, his voice tight with anxiety.Diana had been staring at the ER doors for what felt like an eternity. Hearing her son’s voice, she finally looked up, but her face was pale with fear. In her arms, Ralph had cried himself hoarse, his small body still shaking as he let out silent sobs.She didn’t respond immediately. She had been too shaken by what had happened. Even now, she hadn’t fully processed everything. Instead, she just kept rubbing Ralph’s back, trying to comfort him while struggling to keep herself together.Just then, the doors to the ER swung open, and a doctor stepped out. Dexter immediately strode forward, his voice urgent. "Doctor, how are they?"The

Liam Walton spotted director arriving and immediately stepped forward, his expression tense. "I’m really going to have to trouble you with this one," he said, his voice filled with urgency.Diana, who had been sitting in anxious silence, quickly stood up. Everyone in New York knew his reputation—his medical skills were legendary. If there was anyone who could save Herbie, it was him. Seeing him gave her a much-needed sliver of hope."Doctor, please," Diana pleaded, her voice almost trembling. "You have to save her—she’s just a child."Adela was out of immediate danger, but Herbie was still fighting for her life. Diana had only met the little girl a couple of times, but she had already grown fond of her. Herbie was sweet, full of life—too young to suffer like this.Just thinking about the moment that massive billboard collapsed onto Herbie made Diana’s heart ache. The sheer weight of it—how could such a small body possibly endure that kind of impact? Even the people at the scene couldn

As soon as Layson Norman stepped off the plane, he didn’t head straight to the hospital—he went directly to the police station instead. The whole situation was too suspicious, and he refused to believe this was just some random accident. Sitting in the back of the car, he closed his eyes for a moment, exhaustion settling deep in his bones. His mind was on edge, his heart pounding in an anxious rhythm he hated to acknowledge. He was scared.He never admitted fear, but right now, he was terrified—terrified of hearing bad news about Adela. Afraid that if he let himself think too much, he might not be able to handle it."Boss, that shopping mall is under Marty’s management. Should we bring him in for questioning?" Barnes, sitting in the front seat, asked while typing away on his laptop. Given the size of the Norman family's business empire, it had taken him a moment to confirm which branch owned the shopping center where the accident occurred.Layson opened his eyes slowly at the mention

In the meeting room, Layson's gaze remained fixed on Adela, unnoticed by anyone else except for Cici, who was closely observing the subtle interaction.However, Marah couldn't help but scoff softly. When she saw that Layson had eyes only for Adela without sparing her even a glance, she felt a surge of jealousy. Taking a deep breath, she managed to suppress her irritation.As soon as the meeting ended, Marah approached Adela, feigning gentleness, her face adorned with a friendly smile.Cici, who had been keeping an eye on Adela the whole time, immediately noticed her low spirits after leaving the meeting room. Before Cici could ask, she was astonished to see Adela actually inviting Marah out for dinner, leaving her feeling irritated.But Adela seemed determined, smiling softly at Marah, "How about dinner tonight? It's my treat."Marah was still pretending innocence, gently nodding her head with a sweet smile. "Sure, I'd love to!"Cici couldn't hold back her dissatisfaction. Seeing Adel

Worried?Adela wasn't sure herself."If I said no, I'd probably be lying," Adela replied honestly. "But there's no point worrying. Let's just finish our autumn designs quickly; maybe the new boss will appreciate our work."Hearing that, Cici nodded seriously. "True. I should get back to work, then."Adela continued adjusting the details of her designs, fully absorbed until almost five in the afternoon when her phone buzzed lightly on the table. Glancing down, she saw a message from Layson."Let's have dinner together. I'll wait for you downstairs."Seeing his message instantly lifted her spirits, chasing away the gloom that had been hanging over her all day. She quickly typed a reply.Just as she was packing up, Marah walked over to her desk with a friendly smile. "Adela, do you remember last time when I mentioned having dinner together? Are you free tonight?"Adela was a little surprised. She hadn't expected Marah to be serious about that offer. But she'd already agreed to meet Layso
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 198 Everything Has Changed
She hadn't slept the entire night.When the sunlight finally poured through the window, illuminating every corner of the room, Cora’s dry eyes immediately filled with tears. She sat motionless on the sofa, like a lifeless doll, completely oblivious to her surroundings.Ever since seeing Leopold’s lifeless body, her heart had stopped beating too.The doorbell rang repeatedly, more than a dozen times before she finally regained some awareness. Slowly, she dragged her heavy feet towards the door, stumbling a bit as she opened it.Outside, Adela was anxiously pressing the doorbell with one hand, holding breakfast in the other. The worry in her clear eyes was unmistakable.When the door finally opened, Adela visibly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Cora’s pale face, cracked lips, and red, swollen eyes, Adela felt a sharp pain in her heart. She quickly supported Cora and guided her gently to the dining table.Firmly placing her weak friend into the chair, Adela spoke clearly and earnestly,
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 197 Whose Fault?
Looking at the lifeless body lying there covered in blood, Cora could no longer hear the voices around her. No matter how much Mrs. Davis cursed or blamed her, Cora didn’t care anymore.She moved slowly toward the man lying motionless on the hospital bed. Mrs. Davis noticed her movement and immediately began shouting, "Stay away from my son! You have no right to touch him!"Mrs. Davis rushed forward, pulling Cora away from Leopold's side. She even raised her hand to strike her, but Layson quickly stepped in and stopped her."I'll handle this. Stay here and don’t move," Layson instructed Adela gently. He was worried Mrs. Davis, in her current state, would harm Adela as well.Cora didn't even notice how she’d reached Leopold's bedside; she just stared blankly at his pale face. Mrs. Davis grabbed Cora's arm so forcefully that she nearly lost her balance, trying desperately to get closer to her son again."Don't touch him! You're not allowed near him anymore!" Mrs. Davis screamed hysteric

"Adela, did you find Cora?" Layson’s familiar voice came through the phone, filling Adela with an unexpected longing."Yes, I found her. She’s with me," Adela replied softly.It took a moment before Layson continued, his voice unusually hoarse, clearly unwilling to speak of the tragedy. "Leopold Davis had an accident. He died in a car crash."The instant Adela heard this news, her first reaction was to look at Cora. The news was so shocking, so sudden, that it left her frozen in place. She'd just heard Cora express how she'd been waiting for Leopold to come to her, but now he was gone forever."Cora…" Adela called gently, unsure how to break such terrible news. Her heart ached deeply, knowing this revelation would devastate her friend."Where are you now? I'll come pick you both up," Layson's voice came again through the phone, steady yet heavy with sadness.For a moment, Adela didn't know how to respond. The news had completely overwhelmed her, but she quickly regained her composure
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 195 Finding Cora
Early morning rain had left the old-fashioned street wet. Adela walked slowly along the road, her gaze drifting around uncertainly. It was her first time visiting this village.She had first heard about this place from Cora. This village was where Cora grew up and also where she'd first met Leopold Davis. So, when Cora disappeared, Adela immediately thought of coming here. Yet she wasn't certain if she'd really find Cora here.Although the village was small, locating one person wasn't exactly easy. Adela had been wandering for a while without any luck and was almost ready to give up when she suddenly spotted Cora sitting quietly on a small wooden bridge across a stream, her feet dangling in the clear water. She wore an absent-minded expression, seemingly lost in thought.Seeing her, Adela sighed with relief. She paused briefly, then walked towards the bridge and gently called out, "Cora!"Cora turned around slowly upon hearing someone call her name. When she recognized Adela, she seem
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 194 Move in with Me
Early morning.When Adela opened her eyes, Layson was already gone. Bright sunlight streamed into the room, and she instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes from the harsh rays. She wasn't sure how long she'd been asleep—her legs felt weak, and she didn't have the energy to sit up just yet.At that moment, the door opened, and Layson appeared wearing casual home clothes. Seeing Adela awake, he smiled warmly. "You're awake? Why didn't you sleep a bit longer—you were exhausted last night."As he spoke, he walked over and sat at the edge of the bed, affectionately running his fingers through her messy hair. Adela shot him an annoyed glare, thinking bitterly how he was responsible for her exhaustion, yet still dared to tease her about it.Seeing her blush, Layson chuckled softly, finding her embarrassment incredibly cute. The shy expression she'd worn last night was still vivid in his mind. "Come on, breakfast is ready."After saying that, he stood up. Adela tried moving her legs
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 193 Spending the Night at His Apartment
Adela followed behind Layson until they reached the door of his apartment. She stared blankly at her hand, which was being gently held by him, and suddenly wondered how she'd ended up here with him. She tugged her hand away awkwardly and murmured, "Um…Layson, maybe I should go home."But since they'd already come this far, Layson wasn't going to let her leave now. Before Adela could react, he'd already pulled her inside, quickly closing the door behind them and wrapping his arms tightly around her waist. She felt his breath, warm and slightly rough, brushing gently against her ear. "Why so shy? It's not like this is your first time here."The dark room was faintly illuminated by lights from outside. Standing just inside the door, they remained in a warm embrace, creating an atmosphere filled with undeniable intimacy. Adela tried pushing him away softly. "Let go of me!"Layson didn't respond to her protests, instead chuckling quietly. "Didn't you say you missed me? Don't you think you
Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama 192 Layson, I Miss You So Much
After parting ways with Cici, Adela didn't hail a cab home. Instead, she chose to walk alone along the street. Lost in thought, she wandered aimlessly, unaware of where she was heading. Just as she was drifting away into her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang, snapping her back to reality.“Hello?” she answered softly.A familiar voice spoke from the other end of the call. Today, hearing his voice at this particular moment felt strangely comforting, like stepping onto solid ground after floating in the clouds. "Where are you?" Layson asked gently."I'm..." She hesitated for a second, "I'm still near the company, on the street."He frowned slightly, glancing out his window. It was already dark outside. "It's late; why aren't you home yet?"His voice carried a hint of authority, but tonight, Adela found it oddly comforting instead of domineering. She bit her lip and smiled shyly, feeling playful and unusually bold. "Layson, I miss you so much."On the other end, Layson was momentarily ta
