The Reviano Family Mansion was full of smiles from the happy faces of the invited guests and hosts. It was seen that Houston Reviano and his wife, Hellena Reviano, welcomed the special guests in the middle of the Hall.
Loud sounds of laughter and hum of stories filled the room accompanied by melodic scales playing the beautiful notes of couples on the dance floor, like background music describing the festive atmosphere of a party.
The event was attended by the closest people and those who had ties to the Reviano Family, unfortunately, there was not the slightest presence of the Madini Family, but no one seemed to care.
Their focus was only on the happy hosts.
Sean was seen standing next to his new bride who was sitting on a bench near Hall.
Sean held Viania Harper’s hand gently, the woman who had just changed her name to Viania Reviano, while occasionally landing a kiss on her palm and forehead while whispering something that made both of the
The wind carried sweet smell of flowers that blooming from the hills of the little town, Blueberry, to the houses that lined around. One of the large mansions stood majestically among the housing near the hills of the small city.A black metallic car was seen entering the mansion yard, and as soon as the car stopped, a handsome man got out of the side of the wheel and walked around the car to the other side.He opened the passenger door, then reached out to a beautiful woman in a maroon dress who was heavily pregnant.“Are you tired?” Sean asked, helping Via out from her sit.“I want to lie down for a while,” Via replied while holding Sean’s arms which wrapped around her sides.“Looks like Mom has prepared a room for us,” said Sean who led her inside.They had just stepped onto the terrace when the large door in front of the two opened widely, revealing a figure of a middle-aged man standing wi
That morning, Via woke up feeling uncomfortable. Since then, the baby in her stomach had been kicking non-stop, making it difficult for her to sleep. She changed positions several times, but still she didn’t feel comfortable.Seeing Via, who was restless and changing directions, Sean stroked his wife’s stomach, which became a playground for their baby.“It seems he doesn’t let me sleep,” Via said while stroking the stomach. “He was like this all night.”Sean glanced at the clock on the table, it was six in the morning. He got up from the bed and offered Via to follow him.Sean’s hand stretched forward, intending to help Via get up from the bed.“What if we do something? Usually the baby will fall asleep when the mother is active,” said Sean, who finished reading ton of pregnancy books.Via accepted his offer and carefully got out of bed.“But I’m not hungry,&rdquo
Hellena invited Via and Sean to attend one of the hurricane-affected school repair fundraising events in the small town of Blueberry.As one of the influential families there, Hellena who served as chairman of the school committee helped run the event that held at City Hall.“Are you sure you would like to attend this event?” Sean asked worriedly after Via was fitting her pink dress.Seeing the worried look on her husband’s face, Via touched his arm slowly. “Gosh! I’m not sick, Sean. I’m just pregnant,” Via said while smiling.“I know, but that’s not what I meant,” said Sean as he continued to stare at Via’s stomach which looked heavy until he was worried that his wife might fall on the ground holding the weight of her big belly.“Would you like me to bring you a wheelchair?” Sean asked with obvious concern on his face.Hearing that, Via pinched her husband’s
The hospital corridor was full of waiting men, as well as graceful-looking women gathered together on the waiting benches. Their faces looked anxious waiting for something. They had been outside for more than five hours, chanting prayers for someone who was giving birth inside.Meanwhile, Tya and Disya, who were usually far apart, now were holding hands. Both of them glanced warily at the door of a delivery room, and ducked later when there was no sign of someone coming out with the news they had been waiting for.However, their heads shot up at the same time as Sean exited the room, causing several eyes to look at him curiously and full anticipation.Relief filled the corridor as soon as everyone found Sean’s eyes sparkling with compassion. A wide smile graced his face, and with his hands clenched in the air, he said loudly, “I am a father now!”There were cheery voices all around. Not to mention the congratulations and pats on the shou
The streets around Bar Grand Avenue were packed with pedestrians who wanted to see New Year’s celebrations in the open area, which was not far from Times Square. Not only that, the lights twinkling beautifully along the entertainment center. Not to mention the cars that crowded along the road and not a few who parked carelessly.Meanwhile, Via, who was waiting for Disya outside the Grand Avenue toilet, became restless, because her friend had not come out from there. More than twenty minutes Via waiting, but it seemed Disya still not finished.“Are you still in? Need more minutes?” Via asked while knocking on one of the stalls that Disya was using.“Go ahead, my stomach still hurts!” Disya answered in the end, making Via sigh and walk out with a sluggish shoulder.“I’ll be waiting outside the building!” said Via which was only answered with a grunt. It seemed that Disya was really in pain and her stomach was
Sean’s head ached as he got out of the bed, as did the left side of his stomach hurt and throbbed. A grunt from the right side of the bed made his head turn slightly. He looked at a man sitting on a sofa with a magazine in his lap.“You better lie down before the doctor comes in and sees you in that position,” the man advised before shifting his focus back to the magazine.Sean snorted softly and tried to get out of bed while enduring the pain with the occasional grimace.There was a sigh from the direction of the man sitting on the sofa, making Sean’s face contort in annoyance.“I told you to lie back down, but your stubbornness is a waste of my time,” said the man again, clicking his tongue and shaking his head.“You can go home when you’re done with the police,” Sean said as he growled and his breathing turned heavy, he was having a hard time holding back his body that nearly wobbled.
Two months had passed since that incident, even Via had forgotten the trauma of when a stranger pointed a gun at her. If Via tried to look back, she felt lucky because she got a help quickly, but until now, she had never once known or seen the face of the man who was robbed in the past.Fortunately, there was Disya who always came to help when Via had just returned from the hospital at that time. Just imagine how difficult it was to move when the joint in her shoulder shifts so that her left hand couldn’t be used for several weeks.“When does your shift end?” asked Disya who worked behind the counter.This was their last month at university, and if nothing went wrong, then they would both get a bachelor’s degree in a few weeks and be able to apply for work immediately, but before that time came, Via and Disya were still working part time at the campus coffee shop that already employed both of them since freshmen.“Two more ho
Via stood in front of the Luna Star Hotel building and looked at the building hoping that this interview would go smoothly. Before going inside, she fixed her make-up and formal clothes that were clinging to her body many times with nervous movements.After taking a deep breath and praying silently, Via walked confidently through the door and stopped at the information section.“Excuse me, I have an interview appointment for the Quality Control position at Luna Star in about fifteen minutes,” Via said with a smile on her face.The woman behind the desk stared at Via for a moment before checking the computer in front of her.“Wait a minute, I want to confirm first,” the woman replied as she called someone.While waiting, Via looked around in all directions, unconsciously twisting her fingers until they were red.Hotel Luna Star was truly magnificent. It was more like a castle than a hotel. There were hundreds of millio
Thank you so much for reading this novel to the end. This is my first completed English novel, and I am very happy to put it on GoodNovel and received such a positive response.

Via had only been in the room for an hour and was lying on the bed when suddenly she heard the sound of the bell ringing loudly, making her sigh and rush to open the door only to find Sean standing in front of it with Carolus in his arms.“Mommy!” called the cute-faced toddler with her big blue round eyes.Seeing that, Via’s heart sank because for a moment, she almost forgot the whereabouts of her son who was left with the nanny at home. Via’s eyes immediately turned to the man who was holding their son with an innocent look.“He said ... he missed his mother,” said Sean as he swung his body slightly from side to side which made Carolus’ head fall on his father’s chest, and his eyes seemed heavy to close.Via’s eyelids twitched until her long eyelashes fanned her face with such graceful movements when she suddenly found the presence of the father and son duo.Sean cleared his throat becaus
The bone-chilling cold air made Via tighten the scarf around her neck. She fastened her steps as she crossed the slightly windy streets of New York.Maybe, it would rain tonight, so Via speed up her pace. And she was just about to arrive in front of the Luna Star building, when suddenly a car slowed down on the side of the road which forced her to stop. She unconsciously rolled her eyes when she saw who was behind the wheel.“Get in the car, or I’ll smack your pretty ass as soon as we get home,” said the man who leaned toward the window and stared at Via who looked disapproval.Instead of following Sean’s words whom he would definitely carry out his promise, Via instead continued her walked and made Sean couldn’t help but park the car on the side of the road.Sean didn’t care if he got a police ticket, because for him, bringing the stubborn woman back home was far more important. And in a very hasty, he immediately got
Via had already filled the bathtub with warm water and put the bomb bath in it when suddenly she heard the sound of the bathroom door closing. Via turned back for a moment and with a rounded mouth in O letter, her gaze also asked Sean who went inside.“What are you doing here?” Via asked while glancing at the door.“Shower, of course,” replied Sean who started to undress.How could you shower when Caro is alone there? Via pulled a towel from the shelf and put it on and then walked past her husband, but Sean’s arms wrapped around her waist, instantly stopped Via in place.“I gave him a toy. So don’t worry, Baby,” Sean said lightly, as if they were talking about a kitten outside alone instead of a ten month old baby.“Gosh! What if he cries, Sean? Nobody takes care of him right now,” protested Via while trying to break free.Too bad, Baby Caro’s nanny was asking permission
“Secret… from everyone?” Via asked in a whisper, right in front of Sean’s lips who had just kissed her.The light reflected from the buildings around made their lips glistening with wetness.“Yes,” he muttered which was followed by a growl when he ran the tip of his nose right behind her neck, causing her body to tremble.Via’s eyes closed again when Sean left traces of kiss after kiss which was carried out slowly around her sensitive neck skin.“Sean,” called Via who did not understand what her body wanted.“Yes, Baby,” Sean replied as he pulled Via’s waist so that their lower bodies were pressed close together.Via jumped in surprise when she felt something pressing around her femininity, making Sean laugh softly and deliberately kissed her lips to dispel her protests.At first Sean only teased her lower lip with small bites, then after that he slid his tongue
Sean glanced at his wrist watch. After waiting for fifteen minutes, he got out of the car and rushed up the stairs to her apartment. He deliberately slowed down his steps so Via had more time to prepare.Sean had just entered the corridor that would lead him to her room, when suddenly his steps stopped and found a woman peeking from the apartment next to Via’s room.“Are you Viania’s lover?” whispered the woman who showed half her face, and only showed her right eye, while the other body part was blocked by the door.Sean put his index finger to his lips, and it made the woman cover her mouth with one hand while nodding, then slowly closed the apartment door again.After making sure there were no interruptions from the neighbors, Sean knocked on Via’s fragile door.From his standing position, Sean could tell that she usually peeked through the cracks in the frame, which made Sean even more displeased. However, he chose
Via’s heart was still pounding, and she returned to her room with feeling still shrouded in fear. Even a question popped into her head; what if Devan went inside?Not wanting someone to suddenly enter her office, Via locked the door, hoping that her boss, Hadley, wouldn’t ask.Once back in her chair, Via tried to focus on completing the documents on the computer, but she was still restless and uneasy so she looked for the AC remote to lower the room temperature.A pinging sound signaling an incoming message to her phone awakened Via instantly. She thought it might be Sean.Sean: [Are you okay?]Via was frozen for some minutes when she read the chat. She typed a few words, then erased them again, unsure of what to say. Her finger stopped when she wanted to say ‘not okay’ and instantly she put her head on the table with her phone beside her without replying to the chat.“What should I answer?”
Sean’s gaze focused on the CCTV which showing Via’s activities in her private workspace. Not a single eye blinked, while one of his hands on the table moved with a rhythm like the sound of a horse’s tread.When Via got up from her chair and left the room, Sean immediately replaced the screen with CCTV in every corridor she passed.Via greeted several employees and stopped briefly to talk. Seeing her routine by heart, Sean turned his attention to the work at the desk and sipped his black coffee while occasionally glancing at the CCTV screen.Now Via moved towards the pantry, and Sean’s eyes followed, but the cup in his hand stopped in front of his lips when he saw someone entering the pantry right behind her.***Via felt thirsty suddenly and she forgot to bring a water bottle into the room.After greeting her seniors, Via also chose not to linger to talk, because she was still very awkward. Luckily there was no
Upon returning from the Luna Star Hotel, Via packed her things into the bag she brought some time ago. Her business here was done, and there was no reason for her to remain in Sean’s apartment. She would think after arriving at her apartment later on how to warm herself before the heating worked again.Feeling that everything was in order in the bag, Via left the room.Actually, Via wanted to tell Sean via text message, but she didn’t want to disturb him. What’s more, she didn’t want to be comfortable in her boss’s apartment. For some reason it felt wrong, as if she was taking advantage of the situation.When she reached the lobby, suddenly Via’s phone rang and saw Sean’s name on the screen, but she turned it off because she didn’t want Sean to ask what Via was doing.With hurried steps, Via walked through the crowd.Arriving at the apartment, again the woman next to the room greeted her.&ldqu
