Edgar furrowed his brow upon seeing Leo's arrival. However, it wasn't Leo's presence that bothered Edgar, but rather the woman beside Leo who had been holding his hand since they entered the restaurant. Of course, it was none other than his wife. Leo then walked over to the table where Edgar was already waiting, pulling out a chair for his wife before taking a seat next to Alana.

"Are you serious about discussing business with your wife in tow?" Edgar asked, glancing towards Alana, who returned his gaze with a sharp look.

"What's wrong with me? I won't disturb you; you can talk about your business, and I'll enjoy the menu at this highly recommended restaurant," Alana said, causing Edgar to shrug. After all, she was already here. So it wasn't likely that Edgar would ask Leo to take her home, and Leo probably wouldn't comply even if he did.

"Darling, could you please order my food first before you delve into business?" Alana said, with a hint of sweetness, prompting Leo to reach out and

    Leo glanced at Alana, who was now dozing off beside him. It seemed that his wife was very tired after the long journey from Italy. They were now back and standing in front of Leo's grand house. Elsa and the servants, along with Leo's guards, stood on the terrace to welcome them. Indra, who had returned to work for Leo, opened the door for him. Instead of waking Alana up, Leo chose to carry her body, not wanting to disturb her sleep."Welcome back, Sir," Elsa said, making Leo nod with a smile. Leo then continued his steps as previously requested, wanting their room to be moved to the upper floor, where Leo's old room was before his accident, and Elsa had arranged it accordingly. Leo then gently laid Alana on their king-size bed, and it seemed that Alana was really exhausted as she didn't even stir with Leo's movements. Leo then kissed Alana's forehead before getting up to freshen himself up, as tired as Alana. Unfortunately, he couldn't rest immediately because there was still a lot of

    It was Leo's first day back at the office after weeks of vacation due to his trip to Italy."Welcome back to the Throne, my King," Pedro said as he opened Leo's office door, making Leo sigh irritably at his subtle mockery, ignoring Pedro's greeting. Leo continued to walk to his oversized chair, where it would certainly feel cold if he sat on it.However, before that, Leo diverted his gaze to the large desk, which now truly made Leo look at Pedro with annoyance."Why are you staring at me like that?" Pedro asked, making Leo roll his eyes lazily."What happened to all these stacks of files?" Leo asked, making Pedro shrug nonchalantly, then casually sit in front of Leo, who was now seated in his oversized chair."Of course, all of those are the work that you've left behind," Pedro said, making Leo glance at him briefly, then open his work laptop."Didn't I instruct you to tidy them up partially before?" Leo asked."Of all that I've done, this is what's left. How much work do you think yo

    Leo pursed his lips as he saw Alana standing in front of the main door of their large house. For the past few weeks, his wife had been diligently welcoming him home from work, and as she promised earlier, she would continue to do so whenever Leo returned. And Leo, as a husband, certainly felt that Alana's attention warmed his heart. Receiving such small attention made Leo's happiness level increase significantly. The small attention from Alana made the fatigue accumulated on his shoulders throughout the day at the office simply melt away.Leo immediately stepped out of the car, handing his briefcase and jacket to Alana. Then, he gently kissed her forehead. "How was your day?" Alana asked, prompting Leo to wrap his arm around her shoulder, then leading her inside the house."As usual, the world is getting busier after these past few months. Edgar submitted reports from the project he's currently working on," Leo said, causing Alana to examine her husband's face, now adorned with fine h

    Leo immediately ran from the front door when he saw Alana coming down the stairs while holding her belly, which had grown due to her seven-month pregnancy."Why are you coming downstairs? Didn't I tell you that if you need anything, you can call Elsa or the other servants?" Leo said, helping Alana descend the stairs, causing Alana to glare at her husband with annoyance."You really treat me like a sick person who always stays in the room. Don't you remember the doctor said I should walk often to prevent swelling in my legs?" Alana said, making Leo feel conflicted because he just didn't want anything bad to happen to Alana and their unborn child."I'm just worried. What if we move back to the bedroom downstairs?" Leo suggested, but Alana shook her head."No need. I'm very careful when coming down these stairs," Alana replied, but Leo still felt a bit uneasy if he wasn't at home and feared the servants might not pay attention to his wife.Leo finally let out a long sigh because he could

    Slowly Leo opened his eyes as he felt Alana's breathing become steady. Afterward, he gently withdrew his hand and placed Alana's head on the pillow. Leo then glanced at the clock on the nightstand, which already showed eleven o'clock at night. That indicated that Alana was truly sound asleep.Leo awaited this moment because he had to find the right time to talk to Pedro. Unable to wait until tomorrow, Leo reached for his phone and put on his bathrobe. Then, he tiptoed out of the room towards his study, not wanting to disturb Alana's sleep. Without further delay, Leo immediately contacted Pedro."What's up?" Leo asked."Their hideout has been traced, and I've sent you the address via email," Pedro replied, seeming to understand Leo's question."What's your next plan?" Pedro asked curiously, causing Leo to fall silent. Unsure, Leo had been somewhat preoccupied in recent months and hadn't thought much about Miranda and Selena. Although he continued to insist on finding them, Leo still di

    Leo stopped his hand movement when suddenly the phone in his jacket pocket vibrated, prompting Leo to retrieve it and see that the call was from home. Without hesitation, Leo answered it."Hello," Leo said, immediately greeted by his wife's soft voice."My love, what are you doing?" Alana asked on the other end, causing Leo to tug at the corner of his lips while listening to her gentle voice."As usual, working on some stacks of white papers and checking emails," Leo replied, always surrounded by piles of papers every day."What's wrong?" Leo asked when he didn't hear a response from Alana on the other end."Can you come home now?" Alana's question furrowed Leo's brow, and he immediately got up from his seat."Why? Did something bad happen?" Leo asked, starting to worry because Alana suddenly asked him to come home, even though it wasn't lunchtime yet."My stomach is starting to feel uncomfortable, it seems like I'm going to give birth now," Alana said, making Leo's heart race rapidly

    Leo stared at the two little angels in front of him, only separated by thick glass. Just a few hours ago, Leo could only stroke Alana's belly and give her strength to deliver them, but now he could see firsthand how their two blessings cried in Alana's embrace moments after being born. Leo wiped the corners of his eyes as a sudden surge of emotion overwhelmed him. Leo hadn't expected to become a father so soon, leaving him unable to express his happiness in words.Leo then rose from his seat after seeing enough of their two blessings, and now it was time for Leo to meet his wife. Leo's steps halted, then he smiled warmly as he saw Alana lying on her bed with an IV line still attached to some parts of her body. Leo then walked slowly and sat in the chair beside Alana's bed, reaching out his hand to stroke Alana's face, which looked very tired. Leo truly made a promise that he would always bring happiness to his small family, no matter what happened.Leo's movement apparently disturbed

    Leo winced slightly as he suddenly heard the cry of their twin son, Nathan. This forced Leo to open his eyes, immediately seeing Alana smiling warmly at him while nursing Nicholas."It looks like Nathan needs a diaper change," Alana said, prompting Leo to sit up and walk over to the baby bed, seeing Nathan crying and squirming."Come on, buddy. Sleep after Dad changes your diaper, okay?" Leo said, starting to change Nathan's diaper. True enough, after Nathan's diaper was changed, he fell back asleep. Leo then walked unsteadily back to Alana, who was still nursing Nicholas."He seems insatiable," Leo commented. Alana could only purse her lips."And after a few minutes, it'll be Nathan who starts feeling hungry," Alana said, prompting Leo to extend his hand and gently stroke Alana's cheek."Shouldn't we consider hiring a babysitter?" Leo asked, starting to worry about Alana's condition, as she looked extremely exhausted from taking care of their twin babies. However, Alana shook her hea

Even if Danmonte didn't hold Camila's hand tightly, she would have stepped on her long dress several times because of nervousness. Somehow, his slow steps felt very fast.Until finally, they arrived right in front of the altar, where Pedro immediately reached out his hand, causing Camila to reach out her hand and greet him, prompting Pedro to immediately pull Camila up to the altar, where they would make their sacred vows for a lifetime, witnessed by some important guests attended only by friends and the closest people to Pedro and Camila.Making the sacred vows for life, always faithful in joy or sorrow, always faithful in sickness and in health, they expressed their vows wholeheartedly, living to complement each other until death

    Camila stared at the large mirror in front of her, her heart pounding, unable to believe what she was seeing. Her body was now adorned in a beautiful long white dress, clinging gracefully to her figure, accompanied by makeup enhancing her face. This made Camila purse her lips, finally gazing upon herself as the bride she had dreamed of becoming.Her reverie was interrupted when someone entered, causing Camila to smile broadly. "Aunt," Camila said, as Charlotte walked in wearing a white dress clinging to her body as Pedro had described. Although her aunt was in her fifties, she truly looked like a woman in her thirties. Charlotte then approached Camila, looking at her niece with teary eyes."I never imagined my niece, whom I've taken care of since she was little, would grow up to be so beautiful, even becoming a stunning bride," Charlotte said, making Camila blush, only able to lower her head. Charlotte then reached out her hand and lifted Camila's face."You're truly beautiful. Just l

    Pedro, Camila, Leo, and Alana are currently discussing the plans for Pedro and Camila's wedding, which will be held one week from now after Leo called Alana enthusiastically, who immediately agreed and promised to prepare the wedding for them. Alana asked Leo to bring Pedro and Camila to their home, and this is where they are currently discussing the dream wedding that Pedro and Camila have been longing for."I think it's better to do it indoors," Pedro said, but Camila immediately shook her head."No, I think it will be more sacred and special if we do it outdoors," Camila said, causing Pedro to turn and look at her."Darling, if we do it outdoors, the weather isn't always favorable, sometimes it rains, sometimes it's hot. Do you want our wedding blessing to suddenly be interrupted by rain? What about the guests and others? We can't just rush to avoid the rain, can we?" Pedro said, making Camila pinch his cheek playfully."But isn't there a tent we can use for outdoor events?" Camila

    Leo barged straight into Pedro's room, suddenly, without even knocking, and saw Pedro looking like he hadn't slept for a week."What's up with you? Suddenly applying for leave for next week? Where are you going for a whole week?" Leo asked, seeing the leave letter submitted by his secretary."And what about you? You look really disheveled," Leo asked Pedro again, who was now sitting in front of him."Can I ask for your help?" Pedro suddenly asked, causing Leo to look at him with raised eyebrows."Looks like my guess was right, you've got a problem?" Leo guessed again."It's not really a big problem. I don't know, I could call it a problem or a blessing," Pedro said, making Leo just stare at him with a questioning look, wondering what he meant."A few days ago, after the dinner event at your place, I immediately called Camila's aunt and told her about my intention to propose to her, and also said that Camila's trip to California was canceled. And unexpectedly, she flew here right away

    Pedro and Camila sat in silence, their faces tense as they occasionally glanced at the woman in front of them who was looking around."Is this your house?" the middle-aged woman in front of them asked."Yes, this is my house," Pedro answered, still with a tense atmosphere on their faces."What do you do to afford such a big house?" she asked again, making Camila immediately look at Pedro, then turning back to the woman sitting in front of her, a fashionable middle-aged woman who still looked like she was in her thirties, she was Camila's aunt named Charlotte."Aunt, Pedro is a secretary at Samudra Group. Do you know about that big company?" Camila asked, trying to explain a little bit about Pedro. After returning from dinner at Leo's house the next day, Camila and Pedro planned to tell Charlotte about their relationship. And what they didn't expect was that Charlotte immediately flew over to meet Camila and Pedro. Of course, she didn't agree with Camila's sudden plan. Charlotte said t

    Pedro stopped his car right outside Leo's residence, but as he was about to step out of the car, Camila suddenly pulled the end of his jacket."Why?" Pedro asked, making Camila look at him with hesitation."I'm embarrassed," Camila said, making Pedro just purse his lips. Then, he reached out his hand and gently caressed Camila's cheek."Why be embarrassed? Weren't you very close to Alana before?" Pedro said, making Camila shake her head again."That's not what I'm thinking about. I'm embarrassed to meet Mr. Leo and to know that they already know about your proposal plans," Camila said, feeling anxious, making Pedro once again give her a reassuring smile. Pedro was captivated by the glow on both sides of his future wife's face, looking very beautiful tonight after Pedro had truly explained all his plans to Leo, even though Leo had guessed them beforehand. But Leo pretended not to know and treated the news as a surprise. That's why Leo and Alana decided to invite Pedro and Camila for di

    Pedro fell silent, gazing at Camila who now only lowered her head."What does that shake of your head mean? Is it a sign that you're rejecting my proposal?" Pedro asked, causing Camila to raise her face again, looking into Pedro's pleading eyes."It's not like that," Camila said, causing Pedro to raise an eyebrow."Then what's your answer?" Pedro asked."Of course, I would gladly accept your proposal, but there's something bothering me. I'm still not sure about what you feel for me. It's hard to believe that you could declare your proposal so quickly, especially when we still have two weeks to get to know each other," Camila said, unable to meet Pedro's gaze as he now only looked at their intertwined fingers."Love doesn't require much time to settle in someone's heart. Imagine, initially I didn't think I would develop feelings for you, but when I learned about your feelings for me, I started to open my heart. And I also feel surprised, usually I never easily open my heart to other wo

    Pedro stared at Camila with furrowed brows."What's wrong? I'm just giving my opinion on the movie we're watching," Pedro said, causing Camila to sigh deeply."I'm not blaming you for having an opinion about this movie, but can we not judge them based solely on scenes like that?" Camila said, feeling like Pedro was intentionally bringing up such scenes."What's wrong with that?" Pedro asked, seemingly wanting to corner Camila further."I don't know, but it's better if we just go back to watching. Besides, the scene has already passed. Look, they're not kissing anymore," Camila said, then fell silent while looking at Pedro, who was staring at her mischievously. Somehow, she had clearly mentioned the scene, making Camila close her eyes in embarrassment."You're the one who mentioned the scene so explicitly. Alright, now that they're done with their acting, I'm curious. What if we do it now?" Pedro suddenly said, making Camila widen her eyes."What?" Camila said, but her words were cut o

    Camila, who was engrossed in watching the drama she had been eagerly anticipating, was suddenly startled when Pedro sat right next to her, causing Camila to furrow her brow as she glanced at him."Aren't you supposed to be resting?" Camila asked, making Pedro nod briefly."Well, I was planning to rest, but it turns out I'm not sleepy yet, so I thought I'd just keep you company and watch with you," Pedro said, causing Camila to fall silent and choose to return her gaze to the flat screen in front of her. Of course, at the moment, she was watching a romantic drama about love. Camila wasn't sure if Pedro would like the drama she was currently watching, but several minutes passed and Pedro remained faithfully seated beside her, not budging at all, causing Camila to hesitantly glance at Pedro who was focused on the movie in front of him. Could he actually enjoy films like this with a romantic drama vibe? Camila wondered as she looked at him with raised eyebrows, but from his appearance, Pe
