042."Aunt Maryanne, you're making this look harder than it already is," Janette sighed and stood to her feet. "I never intended to get married to him due to gratitude or anything. I just..." she ruffled her hair as she paced the ward room. "I thought I would fall in love with him. I didn't know Lucas was going to spring back into my life, Aunt Maryanne. I'm just devastated."Aunt Maryanne reached out to touch her hand. "You are a strong lady, Janette. And... you are way too nice for your own good. You don't marry someone to show that you're grateful to them. You marry them because you love them. Marriage isn't a game of dice, my dear. And I'm not even telling you this because I'm Lucas' Aunt and I want you two to be together. I'm saying this because I care about you. Whatever you choose, I will support you, but I won't let you go into something you aren't sure of."Janette sighed, feeling a wave of relief wash over her at Aunt Maryanne's words. She rushed to Aunt Maryanne and hugged

044.“Bella? You have a son?” Janette asked, the words sounding awkward in her mouth. How on earth did Bella get a son? When did the lady get married? Wait… how's this even possible?Bella scoffed, folding her arms. “What? Did you expect me to be barren like you? Or did you think I don't have the ability to give birth to children just because your ex-husband couldn't keep his dick in his pants?” Janette blinked. “Wow! Someone's got issues,” she said. “I bet shutting you up the last time didn't work that well.”“You-”“Good morning, Ladies,” Mrs. Yuna, the woman Janette suspected to be one of the school's management, spoke up as she walked the center of the room. “Ms. Wayne, please have a seat.” she said and Janette nodded.Janette took a seat on one of the chairs beside Bella. Bella, repulsed by Janette being close to her, snorted and stood up, sitting as far away from her as possible. Janette didn't mind. Her focus was on the fact that Bella's “son” has bullied Ethan and Amaya. Now

046. Next day... "Why are you in such a hurry to get off work today, Rosa? Is there something you're hiding from me?" Janette asked, looking at Rosa with a suspicious expression on her face. Rosa cleared her throat. "What are you talking about? I don't know what you're talking about." she picked up the files from the table, her eyes everywhere but Janette. Janette shook her head. "You know you can't lie to me, right? And by now, you should know that you aren't good at hiding your expressions." she took the files from her and put them on the shelf. Rosa smiled. "It's nothing. I'm just excited to get off work, enjoy a cozy dinner, that's all." Janette's eyes widened. "Oh my gosh, Rosa, are you going on a date? You finally allowed a man into that cold and stony heart of yours?" Rosa blushed, trying and failing to suppress a smile. "It's not a date," she protested, but her voice lacked conviction. Janette rolled her eyes. "Yeah, yeah, sure. Whatever you say, Rosa. But

048.After everything, Alan dropped Rosa off at her place and saw her to her door. He stared at her with a smile on his lips. "I really had fun tonight. Thanks for going on this date with him."Rosa nodded. "Thanks for the date. I had fun. The food, the star gazing, they were all wondering," she said and Alan nodded with a smile. "But I was wondering..." she trailed.Alan raised an eyebrow, wondering what she wanted to talk about. "We talked about Janette and Lucas at the restaurant. I recall you meeting the other time to find a way to trick Janette into going on a date with Lucas. Then, suddenly you came to me and asked me out on a date," she began, and Alan but his lower lip. She was on to him. "Then I had to piece things together and I realize this date wasn't really a date. You asked me out on a date to know more about Janette right? Lucas sent you, didn't he?" she asked.Alan lowered his head. He knew he couldn't lie to her. "You're right, but I seriously meant-""Save it," she

050.Lucas stopped in front of them. Rosa smiled at him and he nodded at her. She cleared her throat. "Uh, I'll excuse you two." she quickly walked away before Janette would ask her to stay.Janette shut her eyes tight and facepalmed. "What are you doing here, Lucas?" she asked, her tone softer than she intended.Lucas smiled and sat down, facing her. "Have you forgotten, Doc?" he asked, his tone formal which made Janette arch a brow. "I have an Aunt in your hospital. I came to see her. She's doing wonderfully well, and I wanted to thank the genius doctor who made it happen."Janette had no idea why he was being so formal with her. She knew she should be happy that he was at least doing that, but she had no idea why she felt weird and strange when he did it. Rosa couldn't be correct, right? With a sigh, she looked at Lucas who smiled at her. "You shouldn't have bothered, Mr. Harry," she said, a smile playing on her lips at his expression. Good. He wanted to be formal, right? Two can
