Noella’sPOVEnrick stopped his car at a shopping center that looked crowded and full of people busy with their activities. I looked around, a little surprised. "Why are we here?" I asked, still sitting in the car.Enrick smiled, shrugging casually. "Just for a walk. I wanted to experience a different atmosphere."When we got out of the car, Enrick immediately took my hand. It felt like we were an ordinary couple enjoying our time together, not a CEO and his employee. His style had also changed, away from the formal and stiff impression. Enrick, who originally wore a full suit, now only wore a white shirt with two buttons open and sleeves rolled up. This look shows off his veins and white skin, making him more relaxed and approachable. Not forgetting his hair. What was originally neat is now flowing freely.We walked hand in hand, enjoying the atmosphere of the busy shopping center. Passing by an ice cream parlor, I saw a colorful display of ice cream. My eyes lit up at the sight.Enri
Noella’s POVAfter getting off the boat, Enrick and I walked towards a beautiful lakeside. We decided to picnic under a shady tree full of blooming flowers. The bright colors of the flowers added to the beauty of the atmosphere, while the breeze blew a fresh scent that made me feel peaceful and happy.We found the perfect spot under a large tree with sprawling branches, providing cozy shade. Around us, wildflowers were blooming, providing a breathtaking view. The lake's calm waters reflected the sunlight, creating sparkles that danced on its surface. The birds chirping in the distance complemented the peaceful and calming atmosphere.Enrick set up a picnic blanket and the simple food he had brought. He looked so happy, a smile never leaving his face. I felt the same happiness, enjoying this beautiful moment with someone I loved. After we sat down, Enrick invited me to come closer to him."Noella, come here," he said, putting his arm around my shoulders. I complied, leaning back agains
Noella’s POVAfter a delicious dinner, Enrick and I felt full and satisfied. The waiter cleared the table while we chatted in the living room. Enrick looked calm and happy, and I was glad to see him that way."It's time to rest," he said softly. I nodded in agreement, feeling tired after a long day."Alright, I'll go to my room," I replied, thinking we would sleep in our respective rooms as usual. I walked towards my room but suddenly realized Enrick was following me. I stopped at the door to my room and looked at him in confusion."What are you doing, Enrick?" I asked, feeling confused and a little anxious."I'm taking a break," he replied lightly with a smile."But this isn't your room. Is your room next door? I'm sure you haven't forgotten your room, Enrick," I said, gently reminding him."Yes, but I want to sleep here tonight. Come on, come in. I'm so tired," he said as he gently tugged on my hand, leading me into the room.Inside the room, Enrick sat on the edge of the bed and lo
Noella’s POVEnrick and I hurried to put on our clothes and shape our appearance. I chose a simple but elegant-looking dress, while Enrick wore a neat shirt and trousers. I fixed the collar of his shirt while Enrick gently smoothed my hair.Once he was satisfied with our appearance, Enrick held out his hand. "Ready?" he asked with a loving smile. I nodded, feeling comfortable in his warm hand.We walked out of the room, walking down the corridor with happy steps. The house's atmosphere that morning was also quiet, with only the sound of our footsteps coming together. The servants we passed greeted us respectfully, but our attention was fully on the guest waiting in the living room.When I saw who the guest was, I was surprised. Because that person was Mrs. Isabella, I still couldn't believe it, so I asked, "Mrs. Isabella? What's wrong, why come to Enrick's house so early? Is there something important? I'm sorry I haven't properly thanked you for your help yesterday so Enrick could ret
Noella’s POVThe hospital room where we were waiting for the DNA test results was sterile and cold, the smell of antiseptic filling the air. The walls were white, and several health posters were hanging neatly. The blue plastic chairs we sat on were hard and uncomfortable. The view of the room's large windows showed a green hospital garden, but none of that could calm my frantic feelings.Isabella, and I sat in the front row, waiting anxiously. My feelings were a mix of nervousness, disbelief, and burning hope. My hands were sweaty, and I squeezed my fingers repeatedly without realizing it, a habit that emerged whenever I felt particularly nervous.Enrick sat beside me, looking calm, even though I knew he was also anxious. He squeezed my fingers harder, giving me the support I needed. "Calm down, Noella," he whispered, his voice confident. "We'll find the answer, and everything will be okay."I nodded slowly, trying to reassure myself. "Yes, I know everything will be okay later. It's

Chapter 132Noella’s POVHearing that, I, who should have been happy, cried instead. Not because I was sad but because this blissful feeling was overwhelming. Enrick rubbed my back gently, trying to calm me down. "You should be happy, not crying, Noella," he said calmly.I nodded, my tears continuing to flow. "Yes, I am happy, Enrick. I am, of course, happy. I'm crying because I'm too happy to see my birth mother again. I never expected this," I said, wiping my watery nose. Quickly, Enrick gave me his handkerchief to use.I gazed around, noticing every detail of my biological mother Isabella's luxurious home. This was where I was supposed to live, with my parents. The beauty of this house, with its walls adorned with beautiful paintings, magnificent classical furniture, and the warm atmosphere that filled every room, made me feel as if I had returned to the place that should have been my home long ago.However, this feeling of happiness was overshadowed by a deep curiosity. I mustered
Noella’s POVIsabella took a deep breath before continuing as if gathering strength to convey something very important. Her usually stern face now looked soft, filled with deep affection. "I know that Uncle Martin is a very good man. I also know that your life is hard out there. You were often insulted and belittled by arrogant people like Darren and Emma. They who never liked you," she said in a tone of concern.I nodded slowly, recalling all the bitter experiences I'd had. "So, if someday mom leaves this world, all the assets that mom has will belong to you. You're my only heir," she continued firmly, but her voice was still full of tenderness. "My wealth is par with Stuart's, if not a little richer. Mama even recently purchased the assets of an island in your name to celebrate your return home."I looked at her with teary eyes, finding it hard to accept everything she said. "Mama," I said, holding back my eyes from watering. Isabella grasped my hand tightly, giving me strength thr
