Evangeline braced herself, her eyes cold and filled with a simmering anger as she met Zach's gaze squarely."What? Lost for words?" she spat out, her tone laced with bitterness.Zach's attempt to reach out and placate her only fueled her resentment further. She pulled her hands away sharply, refusing to be swayed by his desperate gestures."Look, baby. I'm sorry for what I've done, okay? If you want, I'll ask Monica to leave the house," he pleaded, desperation creeping into his voice."How noble of you, Zach," she began, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Offering to kick Monica out, as if that erases everything you've done. Do you really think one apology can undo all the lies, the betrayal?"Zach flinched at her words, but Evangeline pressed on, her anger unyielding."You've shattered my trust," she continued, her tone cutting like a knife. "You've torn apart everything we had, piece by piece. And now you expect me to just forgive and forget?"For a moment, there was silence, punctua

Evangeline had already indulged in a few drinks, and with each sip, her desire to dance grew stronger. With enough liquid courage coursing through her veins, she rose from her seat and gracefully made her way to the dance floor.Dancing was more than just a pastime for Evangeline; it was a passion. As she moved to the rhythm of the music, her body seemed to effortlessly glide across the floor, drawing the attention of onlookers with every graceful sway and twist. Among her many talents, dancing was undoubtedly her forte.The DJ who recognized Evangeline's presence, skillfully transitioned the music to match her energy and style. The new beat and rhythm enveloped the dance floor, casting a spell that captivated everyone within its reach. Men and women alike found themselves moving in sync with the music, their bodies swaying and gyrating as if under a hypnotic trance.But amidst the crowd of mesmerized dancers, Evangeline stood out. Unlike the others who danced with abandon, she moved

Evangeline stirred in her sleep as she felt a faint discomfort tugging at her subconscious. With a groan, she shifted in bed, attempting to find a more comfortable position. However, as soon as she opened her eyes, a wave of nausea washed over her, causing her to bolt upright in bed.She frantically stumbled out of bed. Her feet fumbling against the soft carpet as she made her way to the bathroom. Each step felt like an eternity as she fought against the rising sensation of sickness in her stomach.Finally reaching the bathroom, Evangeline barely had time to slam the door shut before she doubled over the lavatory, retching violently as her body purged itself of whatever had caused her discomfort.Sweat beaded on her forehead as she clung to the porcelain bowl. Her breath coming in ragged gasps as she rode out the waves of nausea. After what felt like an eternity, the violent heaving subsided, leaving Evangeline trembling and weak.She slowly pushed herself upright, wiping a shaky hand

The two immediately rush towards the doctor. The physician removes his stethoscope and faces Zach with a smile."Congratulations, your wife is pregnant. She is healthy, as is the fetus. She will be ready to leave as soon as she wakes up. If she has a personal OB-GYN, you can have her visit for additional check-ups. That'll be all," the doctor announces before leaving.Jeremy curses under his breath and hurries into the room, while Zach remains in a state of shock.Once the news finally sinks in, Zach can't help but laugh quietly to himself. His wife, Evangeline, is pregnant with his child! It's unbelievable. Evangeline was diagnosed as infertile by her OB-GYN three years ago, and now she's expecting? It must be a miracle!Overwhelmed with joy, Zach struggles to contain his excitement. He wants to burst into the room and embrace Evangeline, but he fears he might startle her.Instead, he paces back and forth outside the room, his mind racing with thoughts of what to say once he finally

While Evangeline was immersed in business discussions, a sudden wave of hunger washed over her. Her gaze landed on the table adorned with an array of decadent desserts prepared for the party. Feeling the irresistible pull of her cravings, she gracefully excused herself from the conversation.Jeremy observed as Evangeline gracefully made her way to the dessert table, her movements fluid and elegant amidst the bustling crowd of business tycoons. As he sensed her need for a moment alone, he decided to discreetly follow her, ensuring she had the support she needed."Eva, need a hand with those?" Jeremy offered as he approached, a warm smile playing on his lips.Evangeline glanced up, her expression softening at the sight of her brother. "Thanks, Jer," she replied gratefully, gesturing towards the array of delectable treats spread out before them. "I couldn't resist indulging in a little dessert."Jeremy's eyes widened in realization. "Ah, the cravings strike again," he remarked with a kno
