When Marcia woke up, she was surprised to find Elijah still asleep.It made sense—he had lost too much blood. If not for his usual robust health, someone else in his place would have already fallen into a deep coma.Marcia quietly got out of bed, her eyes softening as she gazed at Elijah's peaceful, almost childlike expression. She couldn't help but smile."Still smiling? What's making you so happy?"Shaking her head, she gently tucked the blanket around him, her face filled with tenderness.She tiptoed out of the room and glanced toward the kitchen. Before his trip to Hong Kong, Elijah, ever thoughtful, had stuffed the fridge full of food, worried she might go hungry.Marcia surveyed the kitchen, selected a few familiar ingredients, and swiftly began preparing a meal.Living alone these past two years, she had developed a knack for a few signature dishes. Still, Elijah's indulgence had almost made her forget what it felt like to cook for herself.Soon, the house was filled with the d

Marcia stood in front of Jeff's office, unknowingly letting out a sigh.The office was filled with books and documents, none of which interested her, so she decided to sit on the sofa and zone out. The sofa was the only lively part of the room, yet it looked so neat and unused, as if no one ever sat there.She leaned back against the sofa and gently rubbed her belly, silently praying for good news.Feeling a bit of space behind her, Marcia pulled a pillow from the corner and placed it behind her. The pillow was worn out and looked like it had been used for a long time, but surprisingly, it was very clean. It felt soft and warm, making her feel oddly comfortable.She flipped the pillow over and noticed that one side was embroidered with a cute white rabbit and a silly brown bear.Marcia froze for a moment, surprised. So Jeff had a woman after all! With his cold, aloof, and almost punchable demeanor, she had assumed he was destined to be alone.

Jeff felt a pang of sorrow seeing her so calm and composed."Just tell me—whatever you want, I'll agree to it!"A faint smile tugged at the corners of Marcia's lips."First, you cannot tell Eli about my pregnancy. Not a word. He can't know. I don't want him to be disappointed. I know too well what it feels like to fall from heaven to the depths of despair. I'll bear that burden alone—there's no need to share it with him."Jeff gazed at her for a long moment before giving a solemn nod."Understood.""And the second thing—delay the surgery for a few days. Eli is still home, recovering from his injuries. I need to take care of him. I've been out too long today; if I don't go back soon, he'll start to suspect something. I'll contact you myself to set the exact date.""No! I told you—the sooner we do the procedure, the better…""If you don't agree, I'll find another hospital to perform it. It's just a

As soon as Kevin arrived downstairs at Myron's building, he received a call from Hayden. He cursed under his breath and immediately turned his car around, heading to Elijah's apartment.Upon seeing Marcia, he couldn't help but grab her shoulder excitedly and sigh, "I'm so relieved you're okay! Yesterday really scared us all to death!""I'm sorry. I feel bad for making you go to Hong Kong," Marcia apologized.Kevin patted her shoulder, signaling it was no big deal. After exchanging a few words, he headed straight to the side hall and casually sat next to Hayden."What's going on with Myron?"Hayden handed him a glass of champagne and shook his head. "No news yet. Eli should be arriving soon!"Kevin drank the wine in one go and let out a soft sigh. "Ever since I got here, I feel like I'm going to work myself to death!"Hayden poured him another glass of wine, laughing lightly. "Shouldn't it be a heart attack instead?"Kevin

"I just arrived in Calderstones and am about to visit the White family. Is Hayden still with you?"Elijah's gentle voice made Marcia's eyes sting with tears. They hadn't been apart for long, yet she already missed him terribly."He had to leave for something urgent. Kevin is still here," Marcia whispered, sniffing."What's wrong? Are you crying? Did something happen?"Even across the distance, through the phone, Marcia could tell Elijah was frowning with concern.She let out a soft laugh. "No, I just burned my mouth drinking water. Why would I be crying? You worry too much."Elijah sighed in relief and teased her gently, "Well, can you blame me? It still haunts me. And besides, worrying about my wife is my duty! It's my job to make you smile and keep you happy. If you shed even a single tear, I'd be a sinner for life! Isn't that right, my queen?"Marcia's tears fell even harder. She bit her lip to keep from making a sound.She
