Alexander's POVWho could have thought that my grandmother would become a ritualist over the night.I sighed as I watched Layla write down her desires and put them in the jar.My grandmother smiled. “Good job, darling.”Lqyla rolled her eyes. She had already been through a lot since the past few days.Anytime my grandmother comes in the morning to wake her up, I would pretend to be asleep with my eyes slightly opened.It was fun watching them engage in those stuff though.“Grandmother,” I called. “After the stress you've put my wife through, if she doesn't get pregnant before the year runs out, I will have you arrested.”“Oh, don't bother dear. It will work. Trust the universe.” She said, her voice firm as one who has seen the future. “But you both have your parts to play. Get her pregnant!” She hit my head. “Do your duties every night.”“What?!” Layla exclaimed. “Every night? I might even die at this rate before the child comes.”I laughed. “I won't be too hard on you.” I said. Layla

Grandma, you're amazing!” Alexander exclaimed, kissing Emilia's cheek.I rolled my eyes at him. “Foodie,” I muttered. You could win his heart with a dish.Emilia beamed, her eyes shining. “I wanted to surprise you, my lovelies.”This tender side of Emilia was unsettling. The woman who once tormented me with fertility rituals and saying I wasn't fit to be her grandson’s wife now radiated warmth.“Emilia, what's behind this sudden change?” I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.Emilia winked. “Perhaps I've softened with age.”Alexander chuckled. “Or perhaps you're manipulating us with food.”Emilia playfully hit Alexander's hand. “Silence, boy! Who wants a taste of my sumptuous delicacies?”Alexander's eyes sparkled. What is wrong with this man?As we savored each bite, laughter and conversation flowed. For the firs

Alexander's POV“Grandma, what did you just say?” I asked, stunned.My grandmother's eyes, once blazing with anger, now brimmed with tears. “I'm sick, Alexander. I don't have much time left.”Layla's grip on my hand tightened. “What do you mean, Emilia?” She whispered.My grandmother's voice trembled. “I have blood cancer. The doctor says...it's advanced.”My world crumbled. I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. “No, Grandma. That's not possible,” I denied, desperation creeping in.My grandmother nodded slowly. “I've known for months. I wanted to ensure your future, Alexander, before…”Tears streamed down Layla's face. “Why didn't you tell us?”My grandmother's frail smile broke my heart. “I didn't want to burden you. You both deserved happiness.”I called the family doctor, Dr. Thompson, one of the world's best and his confirmation shattered my hopes.“Mr Alexander, I'm afraid it's true. Mrs King's cancer is terminal. Time is short,” Dr. Thompson said over the phone.I felt numb.

Alexander's POVThe charity gala was in full swing.Layla shone in her red gown, captivating the room.I stood beside her, scanning the crowd.

Alexander's POVTears streamed down my face as I heard Layla's whispering into my ears.“I will stand by you, Alex. Even if you decide to push me away.”My heart melted.I was selfish. I shouldn't have desired a family. It was too much for me to desire happiness with my family.I pretended to sleep, Layla's words echoing in my mind.

I paced back and forth in the guest room, trying to calm down.I couldn't believe he thought I would leave him over some illness. Did he really think so little of me? I stopped pacing and took a deep breath. No, Alexander wouldn't think that. There must be more to it.I walked over to the bed and sat down, my mind racing. What could this illness be? Is it contagious? Is that why he's keeping it a secret?Just as I was lost in thought, I heard a faint noise coming from Alexander's room. I got up and walked towards the door, listening closely. It sounded like...shattering glass?My heart skipped a beat. I quickly opened the door and rushed to Alexander's room. “Alexander!” I exclaimed.He was sitting on the bed, his hand bleeding profusely.

He looks weird in it.“Stay away from Layla,” Alex warned.The ugly man smirked. “Why are you so tense, Alex?
