You're still alive?"Nigel's grip on the woman's arm tightened. "Of course, I'm still alive, and I won't die yet - not until you receive the punishment you deserve.""Ha?" Lorraine went puzzled. "What are you talking about? Do I owe you something I didn't know?"Nigel shook her violently out of rage; he didn't seem to care that she was a woman or that she was old enough to be his mother.

"See, isn't he's so shameless? How thick his face was to blame others when it all started with him! If he hadn't secretly hooked up with your snake of a friend, would you guys end up in this state? I really wondered, what kind of mindset your ex-husband has. Good grief! The good thing is that you're finally free from him." Said the agitated Lorraine after she told everything to nathalie about what she went through because of Nigel. She stopped in her tracks when she saw Nathalie massaging her temples.

She leaned against a wall, feeling the effects of the alcohol kicking in, and now she felt dizzy.She grabbed her cellphone and dialed Nigel's number.

"Nat, are you happy?" Nigel asked, squeezing Nathalie's hand as they walked holding hands through the park. They'd ditched their work to spend some time together."Of course, I am. But you know, I'm not sure if I'm going to regret this or what. I admit, at first, it was tough for me to accept Lyka and her pregnancy. But then I thought, it's my brother's child after all and he's innocent. But... it turns out that's not the case anymore. I don't know, it's just that... when I finally accepted everything, we then found out...""Nat..." Nigel interrupted, stopping in his tracks and smiling at Nathalie. "Are you regretting that the wedding won't push through? You know, we could still go through with it.""What–"Just as Nathalie was about to ask a question, Nigel dropped to his knee.

Nico didn't answer his mother, instead, he turned to the pale Lyka. "Where's your aunt?" Lucille was getting confused. "Wait, what's really going on, Nico?" Nico pulled up a chair and sat down. "I'll answer your question later, Mom. Please wake up Dad and call her aunt. I'm going to expose something." Lyka seemed to have figured out what was about to happen, and she started crying out of worry and fear. It was over for them; this was what she was talking about. There were no secrets or lies that wouldn't be exposed, but she never thought it would happen this fast. Lyka tearfully called her aunt, and since Rina could sense that something was wrong, she immediately excused herself from her friends at the Mahjong game. She arrived, panting, and as soon as she entered the villa, she loudly called out to her niece, forgetting that they were just guests in someone else's home. "Lyka! Lyka! What happened? Why did you call me?" Lyka had already mentioned that she was in the living ro

"Uh, hello... Brother Nigel? It's Lyka." Nigel's brow furrowed as he realized who was calling him. He was about to hang up, but Lyka stopped him: "Wait! Don't hang up yet. Sorry for calling you at this hour, but I'm too embarrassed to admit this to the people here." Nigel's response was curt: "Speak. What do you need?""Um, it's just..." Lyka was about to confess to Nigel when Rina suddenly appeared, causing her to jump in surprise and drop her cellphone. "What are you doing here? Why aren't you sleeping yet? Don't tell me you're trying to cool off when you have air conditioning in your room." Rina pulled Lyka by the hand. "Come on, it's not good for a PREGNANT women to stay up late." Before being dragged away by her aunt, Lyka quickly picked up her cellphone from the lawn. Meanwhile, Nigel was left wondering on the other end of the line when Lyka suddenly went silent. He turned off his cellphone to avoid any further distractions and drifted off to sleep...........A month l

"Mom, why are you calling me? Is everything okay?" Nathalie wondered, since her mom rarely called her when she was at the office. Her mom only called when there was a problem. On the other end of the line, Lucille was supporting her forehead. "Nat, we have a problem..."After Lucille explained the issue:"What?!! They're going to live in the house?" "Yes, dear. Don't tell your Dad yet, okay? He has an important meeting today and I don't want it to affect him." "Wait... did you agree to it, Mom?""I don't know what to decide. Rina told me they're out of money to rent even a small unit, and on top of that, Lyka is pregnant with your brother's child. How can I turn them down?" Nathalie sighed. As instructed by her mother, Nathalie didn't mention the two to her father or brother. But by lunchtime, she couldn't keep it in anymore. She didn't want to drop the news on them when they were about to head home to avoid catching them off guard. So, after they finished lunch, she told them

"Mom!" Nico exclaimed, seemingly wanting to contradict his mother, but unable to do so. He didn't like the idea of getting married suddenly, especially since he didn't like Lyka. And because he found out that she had planned everything, he felt a sense of disgust towards her."I'm sorry Nico, but you need to take responsibility even if you didn't mean for it to happen." "B-but Mom....."Nathalie couldn't help but feel sorry for her brother, while their father's thoughts remained unreadable. Meanwhile, Rina secretly celebrated and rejoiced. Thinking that they had succeeded after all, and had even managed to caught a fat fish.Lyka secretly glanced at Nigel, biting her lip. Her face showed resistance, but like Nico, she couldn't express it. Did it mean she would marry Nico in exchange for the good life her aunt was talking about?

Everyone fell silent at Nico's revelation. Lucille was incredulous while armando grabbed Nico's collar. "Is what you said true, Nico? Are you saying you got someone pregnant?"Nathalie immediately calmed her father down. "Dad, please give my brother a chance to explain. I know he didn't mean for this to happen." She couldn't believe what nico had admitted, because she knew him to be picky when it came to women, so she had a feeling that he hadn't done it on purpose.Nico bowed his head. "I'm sorry, Dad, I-I don't know how it happened...." "How can you not know? You were in control of your body. It's impossible that you don't know what you did!" "Dad, whether you believe me or not, I really don't remember what happened. All I can recall is that I felt dizzy and hot when I entered that suite....."Nico was still speaking when Rina suddenly burst out. "What are you saying, you're the one who got Lyka pregnant?" She snorted. "If you're thinking of covering up what Nigel did, stop it."

The room went quiet. Rebecca was the first to break the silence and asked, "S-sister, what did you just say?" Rina repeated what she said, and this time, everyone reacted. They turned to look at Lyka almost in unison.Lyka looked down in embarrassment, uneasy under the scrutiny of everyone's gaze. She felt like a specimen under observation.It hadn't sunk in yet for Nigel what his aunt had said, not until he noticed everyone staring at him with doubt. He seemed irritated by the questioning looks, and his irritation was evident in his tone. His face darkened as he turned to his aunt. "I have no idea what you're talking about, where did you even get that?" He then turned to Lyka. "Is that how desperate you are to cause trouble for us?""W-wait a minute... You're saying... Nigel got this girl pregnant?" Lucille asked, pointing to Lyka. "How did that happen?" She looked puzzled, unable to understand how it was possible, given that she knew Nigel had feelings for Nathalie. So, how did h

"Your brother Nigel is already home with his girlfriend," Rina pointed out."What's the point, anyway? Our plan won't push through since the result is negative," Lyka replied. She looked somewhat disappointed."I know we didn't get what we wanted, but are we just going to give up like that? It would be a waste to come all the way to the city for nothing.""What else can we do?... Aunt, why don't we just go back to the countryside? I'll just continue my studies there.""What? No way! I'm not going back there to be a farmer and get my skin burned again by the intense heat of the sun. Why would I struggle there when my sister and her son have such a great life here?""But Aunt...""Just don't give up yet, I'll see what I can do. Maybe I can find a way, you never know." Lyka fell silent and didn't say another word.Rina headed to the hospital where Lyka had taken a pregnancy test. When the result came out negative, she almost got into a fight with the doctor.She went there because it w
