"You... you're not mad?" Troy moved closer and gently caressed Sarah's face.Sarah was momentarily enchanted by Troy's touch. She gazed deeply into his protective, steady eyes. For a moment, she forgot they were about to have a serious conversation."How could I be mad at a man who sincerely loves my children? A man who is always there for me." Sarah returned Troy's gaze intensely.Troy felt a sense of peace at that moment."Thank you, sweetheart!" Troy hugged Sarah tightly, noticing that her body had become a bit fuller.They hugged for a while, as if they were reconnecting after the tension that had built up between them over the past few days. The strain they had both experienced had been emotionally draining, but their longing for each other was undeniable.Now, that longing seemed to overflow, allowing them to momentarily forget the arguments they had been having lately.Slowly, Sarah loosened the embrace. She felt a bit calmer, even though Troy hadn't spoken yet. She could

"Out late again. Where have you been all day, Erica?"Erica, who had just stepped out of her black Lexus, was startled. Her father was already standing in front of the main door of their home."Dad? Why aren't you asleep yet?" Erica tried to divert the conversation. She was exhausted and didn't want to argue with her dad again. She had spent the entire day following Troy and his family, ending the night at a nightclub she had been frequenting lately."How could I sleep when my daughter is still out? You should have a man accompanying you when you're out this late."Erica began to feel uneasy whenever her dad brought up the topic of her partner. To this day, she hasn't succeeded in fulfilling her father's request to introduce her future husband."Dad, it's late. Let me walk you to your room," Erica said, guiding Michael toward his room. She didn't want him to start discussing her potential husband. She was too tired for that."Wait! I want to talk about our collaboration with Eter

"We've got trouble. Michael has halted the project. All the workers are demanding accountability. They want the remaining wages as per their contract." Without knocking, Diego burst into Troy's office.Troy had anticipated this would happen. He immediately stood up."It seems we need to meet with Michael right away. I'll negotiate with him." Troy clenched his fists."Wait, Troy. What if his demands are quite heavy this time? Sorry, but I've heard that Erica is interested in you." Diego's gaze seemed to demand an immediate answer.Troy sank back into his chair."It looks like I might have to sell all my assets."Hearing Troy's words, Diego quickly shook his head in despair."Don't make any rash decisions. You should think this through carefully!" Diego spoke softly but with emphasis."I don't have any other options. I can't let Sarah down." Troy spoke quietly, staring blankly ahead."What about the fate of our thousands of employees? What about the project funds we've invested?

"Michael is ill and will be seeking treatment abroad. He mentioned that yesterday's reaction was just a moment of anger. So, the project will proceed as planned." Troy sighed in relief after finally answering Sarah's question.She nodded at Troy's response. Although deep down, something still felt off to her."Oh, how's our baby doing? When's the next check-up with Ivy?" Troy bent down and kissed Sarah's belly."Next month. According to her, the baby is healthy." Sarah stroked Troy's head as it rested on her lap. She gazed intently at her husband's face. For some reason, she felt that Troy hadn't fully answered her question. She could see the weight of something heavy on his face. Sarah sighed deeply several times."Let's go home. The kids are probably waiting for dinner together. Lately, you've rarely joined us for dinner." Sarah caressed Troy's face, which was adorned with soft stubble—something she particularly loved about her husband's face.Suddenly, Troy stood up and extende

"Don't lie to me! Who were you looking at over there?" Kendall's gaze was still fixed on the direction of the elite hospital's obstetrics waiting room. She was still very curious, as she thought Derrick seemed surprised after seeing something there."I already told you I saw the wrong person. Come on, let's go home! Poor Chloe, we've left her at home; she must be uncomfortable with Lorraine's kids." Derrick pulled Kendall's hand more firmly, urging her towards the main road."Derrick, this hospital is so prestigious, the costs must be really high. I never thought Rebecca could give birth in such a fancy hospital." Kendall seemed to have forgotten what she had asked Derrick earlier. While waiting for the bus, Kendall talked about the neighbor they had just visited."Maybe Rebecca has health insurance from her husband's company, just like we used to. Did you forget?" Derrick spoke while continuously looking to the right, hoping the public transportation they were waiting for would arr
