Adaline smiled gratefully at the person who had just placed the documents on her desk. She resumed her work without opening the files she had just received. When Tessa reached for a document on her desk, the woman waved a brown envelope in front of her."What's this?" she asked, curious.Adaline furrowed her brow. She didn't know she had received an envelope. There was no sender's name on the A5-sized envelope either.Curious, Adaline opened it. She almost dropped all the photos inside if it weren't for Tessa who held them back. Her hands were remarkably quick."Is this?" Tessa opened each photo in her hands. She mentioned a date. It happened three days ago.Three days? What was Altezza doing three days ago?Adaline reached for her phone in the drawer. She opened a chat application and scrolled to three days ago.Husband:Madam, it seems I'll be coming home late. There's some urgent matter... (15:12)Adaline:(15:20) I understand.Husband:I'll be back late. No need to prepare dinner.

"Come on, don't listen to them. They're just jealous people," Tessa replied casually.After washing their hands, they stepped out of the restroom area. Once again, Adaline felt uneasy. Was it just her imagination, or were people looking at her differently now? What were they thinking? Were they mocking her? Or were they passing judgment on her? Adaline couldn't find the right words to describe how they were looking at her, but she definitely felt uncomfortable.Tessa wrapped her arm around Adaline's shoulder and squeezed her arm tightly. "Don't think negatively," she whispered softly. "Remember the baby in your belly," she reminded. Reflexively, Adaline's hand reached for her stomach, which was now slightly protruding.After work, Tessa invited Adaline to hang out again, hoping to cheer her up. Since Adaline was craving sweets, they chose a café with a variety of desserts on the menu.Adaline's tray was filled with a slice of cheesecake, chocolate lava cake, and a bowl of soup. She op

"I'm very sure. He's a very good man. I'm sure you'll like him once you get to know him. My lover is the ideal type of boyfriend and husband. He's caring and attentive," Jovanka praised with shining eyes. Joanna responded to her friend's words with a serious nod, while Tessa glanced at Adaline, who was now smiling faintly.In Adaline's heart, she did indeed agree with Jovanka's statement about Altezza's character, although there was a pain that emerged that she couldn't just brush aside."But if he's a good man, he shouldn't abandon a woman who's already carrying his child," Joanna commented again.Jovanka shrugged nonchalantly. "I also don't know why he did that foolish act. But indeed, since the beginning, when we were still together, he really wanted to have a child. It's just that back then I kept postponing it because I wasn't ready to give up my career."But even though it seems cruel, I like the way he handled it because it benefited both of us. So even if we get married later,

Adaline suddenly missed her mother. She asked Tessa to take her to her mother's house, and her friend happily agreed. Adaline sent a message to Altezza that she would stay at her mother's house, and Altezza said he would join her later.Throughout the journey, Tessa observed Adaline in silence. Adaline wasn't someone who liked to talk a lot and be chatty like herself and Joanna, but Adaline's silence this time still worried Tessa. Finally, tired of this suffocating silence, Tessa spoke up."Is everything okay?""She's a smart woman. She knows what she's doing. And she's clearly baiting me. I'm just saying what needs to be said, not what she wants to hear.""Adaline...?"Adaline turned and smiled. "You don't need to be sad like that." Adaline reached for her friend's hand, who was gently rubbing her arm. "Everything will be okay."From the beginning, I knew the consequences. Everything you heard from me is what I'm thinking. I won't try to make him love me or force him to choose betwee

Upon seeing Adaline, the man spread his arms wide, inviting his wife to come closer and into his embrace. Adaline complied. She walked over and nestled into her husband's embrace. His warm body enveloped hers, providing comfort. Adaline rested her head on her husband's chest, while Altezza gently rubbed her back."Are you tired? Have you had dinner?" Adaline looked up. Altezza nodded in response to both of his wife's questions."I'm sorry, I haven't had much time with you. Just hold on a little longer, my dear. My wife, my children," he said in a deliberately affectionate tone, while caressing Adaline's stomach. "If Antony feels that Gian is ready to be released, I'll bring Duncan with me. Working with Duncan feels easier.""Maybe because Duncan is already accustomed to your way of working. And perhaps the chemistry between you two is strong because you've been working together," Adaline commented, which was met with a nod from her husband.Adaline remembered her encounter with Jovank

A large parcel, beautifully wrapped, was delivered by a courier and left at the lobby receptionist's desk. The large package contained expensive chocolates that seemed to have been intentionally imported from abroad. Employees who happened to be returning from lunch approached out of curiosity. They admired the expensive gift, examining it and murmuring their admiration."Congratulations on your pregnancy. May your baby be healthy until the day of its birth. I heard you have a sweet tooth. So, I intentionally sent this to the office because I didn't know your home address.Sincerely,J.L"Someone read the message aloud. "This person is really something. All these expensive chocolates." The employees who also saw it just gasped with amazed expressions."Whose is it?" another asked the receptionist. The receptionist checked the guestbook."It says here the package is for Adaline Scott. Finance Division," the receptionist replied innocently.She wasn't the one who received the parcel. It

Jovanka tossed her phone aside. She screamed hysterically until Cindy, her assistant, covered both of her ears. Jovanka's elderly housemaid also hurriedly ran from the first floor to the second floor to check on her employer.All the items that were on the table had turned into a mess on the floor. Even the wide-screen television had been shattered by a chair. The woman's rage was truly terrifying.Cindy, feeling frightened, had even begun to crawl towards the door, afraid of becoming the target of the woman's wrath."Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!!!!" She screamed again.The woman grabbed her own hair. Her gaze seemed unfocused. She paced back and forth in her room, oblivious to the ceramic shards that could potentially injure her feet.Evans arrived shortly thereafter, looking out of breath from running. He saw Cindy and the middle-aged woman alternately. Cindy simply shook her head. Evans promptly entered the room, embracing the woman from behind.His hand reached for a box from his bag. He pul

The weekend arrived. With Adaline's pregnancy considered stable and Violet deemed healthy enough, the Altezza family finally decided to spend the weekend together in Kansas. It was also to celebrate the birthday of their daughter, Antony, Flavia.From Kansas, they continued their journey to a mountainous area that was one of Flavia's desires. They arrived at their destination around nine in the evening, and amazingly, the little girl had already made reservations for all of them.Four condominiums and two tents were reserved by Flavia and Abigail. The couples were assigned specific accommodations: Delila and Sir Benjamin Quirino, Antony and Claire, Altezza and Adaline, Emma and Violet.One of the two tents they rented would be used by Abigail and Flavia, and the other by Gian. This naturally made Gian the subject of teasing.That evening, there was also a bonfire. The atmosphere was lively, with a group of young people seemingly spending their weekend for fun. Adaline felt like a teen

Altezza glanced at his wife while Adaline seemed to maintain her blank expression. Altezza couldn't guess what the woman was feeling right now. Whether she was angry with him or not. Whether that blank expression was because she genuinely had no ill thoughts or because she was very good at hiding her feelings, Altezza didn't know. But Altezza would question that when they were alone.At ten o'clock, Adaline chose to retire because she felt tired and Altezza followed her. "Are you very tired, Madam?" He asked when they were alone.Adaline was taking off the blanket Altezza had put on her earlier. The mountain air was indeed very cold compared to Manhattan. That's why she put on a sweater and socks. Adaline chose to climb into bed and cover half of her body with the blanket."Pretty tired but not too much. Why?" She asked when she felt comfortable in her position.Altezza walked closer. He got into bed and slipped under the same blanket."It's about what Antony and Gian said earlier. Ca

Adaline returned to her daily activities, although it could be said that her body was not as comfortable as usual. Lately, she had trouble sleeping and would only fall asleep after three in the morning. As a result, she often felt tired and extremely drowsy during the day.Her pelvic bones also often felt sore. When she consulted the doctor, the doctor said it was normal. What was not normal was Adaline's sleeping schedule and her health issues.During a blood test, Adaline's hemoglobin levels were found to be low. She was experiencing anemia. It was a common condition for pregnant women, but it would be extraordinary if it persisted. Especially since Adaline was pregnant with twins. There were many risks if her condition persisted until she gave birth.As a result, she returned from the doctor's with a lot of vitamin prescriptions. And she intentionally didn't tell Altezza. He was already tired enough every day, managing his own business and his father's company. Yet despite his fati
