Semua Bab Love and Devotion: No Longer His to Claim: Bab 381 - Bab 390

The next day, Angela held Leo for the first time.Angela was in awe. She could hardly describe the feeling when the nurse carefully placed the tiny, pink baby in her arms.Her reaction perfectly captured the mix of shock, excitement, helplessness, and wonder that new life brought.Leo's eyes looked just like Mia's. At that moment, Angela suddenly realized how incredible Mia was. This tiny, adorable child had come from her frail body!"Hi, Leo. I'm your godmother. You can call me Godmom." Angela rocked the baby gently, grinning so wide her eyes turned into crescents.She had to admit—Mia's baby was super adorable.Maybe she was biased as his godmother, but even though Leo was still red and wrinkly like a little monkey, she still found him utterly charming.A warm sense of joy filled Angela's heart. And yet, no matter how much she adored Leo, she couldn't erase the memory of Mia's agony in the delivery room.One thing was certain—if she ever considered having a child, she would t

"Let me see Mia. I'm begging you." Zayn's voice was heavy with sorrow, and his eyes were red. He looked utterly heartbroken."Wait here. I'll go ask Mia." Angela sounded a bit impatient, but she didn't outright refuse.She went upstairs and found Mia using a breast pump, though she didn't look too well.Ever since Angela had taken Leo away, Mia had insisted on pumping milk for him, saying that no matter what, she wanted her child to have her milk.As soon as Mia saw Angela, she sighed. "I don't know why, but I'm not producing enough milk. I guess I have to feed Leo formula, and I feel terrible about it." Angela was surprised. "Why would you feel bad just because you can't breastfeed? Does formula cause malnutrition or something?"She really couldn't understand how a woman who was once so refined and happy before childbirth could suddenly turn into a devoted mother, selflessly sacrificing herself and even losing her own identity.Maybe this was the greatness of maternal love. Bu

What the heck was Mia saying?"I just feel bad since he saved my life before. If I don't accept his kindness, wouldn't that make me seem ungrateful? I want to repay him, but every time I have that thought, I feel like I'm being presumptuous. It's frustrating enough as it is, so stop spouting nonsense."Angela let out a frustrated sigh. She wished she could just set things straight with Dexter, lay everything out, and make a clean break."If you truly wanted to sever ties with him, you would have done so long ago. Otherwise, why would you still be waiting around?" Mia said calmly, as if she had seen right through her.Angela frowned deeply, her thoughts a mess."What do you mean by that? What should I do then?" She remained silent for a long time, feeling like she had encountered a difficult problem."He loves you, and you have feelings for him. It's a good thing—a happy thing. Why make it so complicated? Or are you still holding a grudge for the way he treated you in the past?" M

Zack grinned eagerly. "Angie, if you like him, I'll get his contact info for you.""What contact info?" Dexter's tall figure suddenly loomed over them as he forced his way into the conversation.Angela and Zack exchanged a glance and instinctively dropped the topic. Just then, the good-looking waiter from before walked over with a tray and set a fancy Black Forest cake in front of Angela.In an especially gentle voice, he said, "For the lovely lady. Please enjoy."Not only was he dashing, but his voice was also music to the ears. He was like a breath of fresh air. Angela couldn't help but smile as she lifted her gaze to take a proper look at him.Goodness. He was even more attractive up close. Those dark, deep-set eyes seemed to contain an endless galaxy, making them utterly mesmerizing.How could someone like this be a mere waiter?"What's your name?" The moment the words left Angela's mouth, she regretted it.What the hell was she doing? If she wanted to know, she should've l

Angela didn't hesitate to follow along. She had no interest in putting up with Natalie's pointless anger and would much rather spend her time grabbing a late-night snack.However, she was still a bit puzzled. Who were the two people that had taken Trevor away earlier? The timing had been too perfect."Stop right there!" Natalie's shoulders trembled with rage as she pointed at Fiona. "You… You're a disrespectful daughter-in-law! The reason you ended up like this is because you weren't capable enough. You failed to keep your husband's heart and couldn't control him."That's why he went to someone else! Given that, you should reflect on your mistakes, accept, and tolerate your husband instead of constantly opposing the family!"What kind of twisted logic was this?Angela let out a scoff, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes. But since Fiona remained silent, she didn't bother to speak either.Unexpectedly, Natalie intensified her attack. "I'm doing this for your own good. If people
