Evangeline sat quietly beside Klein in the car, feeling a bit embarrassed by his unwavering focus on the sonogram the doctor had given them. He seemed to be completely captivated by it, even now.Evangeline who was unable to contain her amusement chuckled softly at Klein's absorbed demeanor."What's so funny?" Klein asked, looking up from the sonogram with a puzzled expression.Evangeline tilted her head, smiling gently at him. "I'm hungry. Can we grab something to eat? I'm craving a burger and ice cream," she requested.Klein grinned at her craving and quickly tapped on the driver's partition to order some food from a nearby drive-thru.Out of curiosity, Evangeline suddenly asked, "Do you like babies?"Klein was taken aback by the question, as if he had been pulled out of a trance. "No, not really. I'm not particularly fond of children," he replied firmly, causing Evangeline's smile to falter.She pouted slightly and continued, "Well, if that's the case, can I have the sonogram back?

While Evangeline stayed in Klein's office, the exhaustion caught up with her, and she found herself nodding off on the couch. Klein watched her for a moment, a fond smile playing on his lips at her peaceful expression.He gently draped a blanket over her, ensuring she was comfortable as she slept. With a quiet sigh, he returned to his desk as the soft sound of Evangeline's breathing became a comforting presence in his quiet office.As Klein worked, he found himself stealing glances at Evangeline. Somehow grateful for the miracle that this woman was carrying his child. But deep inside him, he could never admit that special feeling. Evangeline's place in his heart only ends there-a woman carrying his child.Hours passed, the sun slowly sinking below the horizon, casting a warm glow through the windows of the office. Evangeline stirred from her slumber, blinking sleepily as she sat up on the couch."Hey," Klein greeted her softly, offering her a warm smile. "Feeling better?"Evangeline n

The dinner stretched on, seemingly endless, much to Evangeline's dismay. With every sip of wine, Klein seemed to loosen up more and more, his laughter becoming louder and his jokes more frequent. Evangeline tried to keep up with the conversation, but as the evening wore on, she found herself growing increasingly exhausted.By the time they finished their meal, Klein was noticeably tipsy, his words slurring slightly as he spoke. Concerned for his well-being, Evangeline discreetly signaled to Klein's bodyguards for assistance. With their help, they gently guided Klein out of the restaurant and into the awaiting car.Despite Klein's inebriated state, he managed to mumble his gratitude as they settled him into the backseat. Evangeline gave a reassuring nod to the bodyguards before climbing into the driver's seat and starting the car.The drive back home was quiet and Evangeline glanced at him occasionally, his slumped posture and closed eyes was almost a sight unexpected to see.Once they

"Good morning," Klein replied, his smile genuine and welcoming. He turned away from the stove for a moment to give her his full attention. "Did you sleep well?"Evangeline nodded, feeling a sense of ease in Klein's presence. "Yes, surprisingly well, thank you," she replied, her voice soft. "And the smell coming from here is making me hungry already."Klein chuckled with a twinkle of amusement in his eyes. "Well, I hope you're ready for a delicious breakfast then," he said, returning his focus to the cooking. "I'm making pancakes with fresh fruit and maple syrup."Evangeline's stomach rumbled in response, and she couldn't help but laugh. "That sounds amazing," she said.As the two chatted, Evangeline couldn't help but notice the change in Klein's demeanor. He seemed more relaxed, almost at ease, compared to his usual stoic self. It was a pleasant surprise for her to see this side of him."Is there anything I can help with?" she offered, stepping closer to the kitchen counter.Klein sho

As the days turned into weeks, Evangeline decided to keep silent about the marriage contract she stumbled upon in Klein's room.During this time, subtle yet significant changes occurred within Evangeline. Her once-flat belly now sported a small bump, a visible sign of the life growing within her. But beyond the physical transformation, her demeanor underwent a noticeable shift.Klein couldn't help but observe these changes in Evangeline. While she appeared outwardly unchanged to others, her interactions with Klein carried an undertone of unease and distance.One afternoon, as Evangeline indulged in an apple, Klein's gaze lingered on her, quietly studying her every move. As she sensed his scrutiny, Evangeline tensed slightly, aware of the weight of his gaze upon her.Klein broke the silence as he spoke up, his tone laced with curiosity and concern. "I've noticed you haven't accompanied me to the office ever since that last visit. Aren't you feeling restless staying at home?""I'm fine,

Jeremy's shock quickly morphed into anger as he processed Evangeline's revelation. He slammed his cup of coffee down on the table, his face contorted with fury."What do you mean it's Klein's?" he demanded, his voice rising with each word. "You're carrying his baby?"Evangeline recoiled at her brother's sudden outburst, her heart sinking as she realized that some people are glancing their way. "Jeremy, please, calm down," she pleaded, reaching out to him.But Jeremy shook off her hand, his eyes blazing with indignation. "Calm down? How can I calm down, Evangeline? You're pregnant with Klein's child! How could you let this happen?" He spoke and breathed in a whisper.Evangeline's own frustration bubbled to the surface as she stood her ground. "It's not like I planned this, Jeremy," she retorted, her voice tinged with defiance. "Things happen, okay? And besides, it's my life, my decision."Jeremy's jaw clenched as he struggled to contain his anger. "Your decision? What about the consequ

Evangeline's temper flared as she felt Klein's dismissive attitude towards Jeremy. As they walked towards the entrance of the house, she forcefully yanked her arm out of his grasp."Klein, you can't just treat people like that!" she exclaimed, her frustration evident in her voice. "Jeremy is my brother, and he was only trying to help."Klein turned to face her, his expression masking any hint of remorse. "I don't need anyone's help, especially not from someone who's clearly against me," he retorted coldly.Evangeline's anger surged at his callous words. "That's not the point, Klein! You can't just brush off people who care about me," she snapped, her tone laced with hurt.Though Klein's gaze softened slightly at the hurt in Evangeline's eyes, his pride kept him from offering an apology. Instead, he responded, "So now you're talking and looking at me?""Then don't touch me!" Evangeline angrily shouted, pulling away from him, but her sudden movement made her dizzy, and she stumbled.Kle

In the silence that followed Evangeline's plea, Klein's lack of response spoke volumes. His quiet demeanor conveyed his internal conflict, leaving Evangeline to interpret his unspoken words. With a sad smile, she accepted the truth and understood that perhaps Klein's heart belonged elsewhere."It's okay," Evangeline whispered, her voice tinged with resignation. "I know you're not ready for love or commitment, and maybe there's someone else in your heart." She nestled closer to him, seeking solace in his comforting presence."Let me stay like this for a while," she requested softly, finding comfort in the warmth of his embrace. Resting her head on his shoulder, she closed her eyes, allowing herself to succumb to exhaustion.As Evangeline drifted off to sleep in his arms, Klein carefully returned her to his bed. With a bitter expression, he settled in for the night.However, while he slept soundly, Evangeline quietly left the estate with all her belongings, driving off with her brother
