21. New Husband for Veronica?
Two days exactly, Veronica underwent intensive treatment and complete rest at the hospital. During that time, Darwin, who was so faithful, accompanied her and waited until Veronica's condition gradually improved. In order to fully immerse himself in the role, Darwin even took permission to not go to work. All emergency tasks and deadlines that couldn't be postponed, he chose to work on them while waiting for Veronica at the hospital. "If I take a closer look, you seem to be really getting into the role, huh?" Veronica teased, while enjoying a piece of fruit she was having as a substitute for a snack. Darwin, who was sitting on the couch working on something at that moment, immediately turned to her. Smirking, he responded to the playful jab Veronica had just thrown at him. "Isn't this what you wanted? I'm like this because I'm trying to keep my promise. Instead of something happening to my girlfriend

22. In Your Dream
Right when dinnertime arrived, Darwin decided to head down to the first floor. Dragging his feet lazily, the man walked slowly towards the dining area. Just as he took his seat, Darwin could see how Veronica, who had arrived earlier, had a puzzled expression on her face. He wasn't sure what was actually happening, but he was convinced that his wife was clearly looking for something. "What's wrong with you? I've been seeing you looking confused for a while now," Darwin asked as he scooped some rice onto his plate. While Veronica was busy inspecting each drawer partition in the kitchen set, she glanced over briefly. A few moments later, she chose to step forward and approach the dining table to speak with Darwin. "Did you see my sushi box?" Darwin could see a clear sense of desperation on Veronica's face. Maybe she was tired or frustrated from searching for something that hadn't be

23. Unsurprisingly
Darwin has just finished reading once again the document about the profile and some important information regarding the Leighton company. He did this on purpose so that he would be well-prepared and more knowledgeable for tomorrow's meeting with his business associate. Moving from the couch to the bed, Darwin intended to rest. However, just as he was about to lie down, he was suddenly startled by the presence of Veronica, who had just come out of the bathroom. Actually, it's not Veronica's presence that Darwin is concerned about. It's just that he was slightly taken aback when he saw the unusual appearance displayed by his wife as she walked towards the bed. Throughout their marriage, Darwin had never seen Veronica wear revealing clothing like she is now. Well, maybe not never. Perhaps he was the one who had been unaware or lazy to pay attention to his surroundings. Preferring to be preoccupied with himself or with Vivia

24. Panic Attack
After attending a banquet event last night, today is the time for Darwin and several other business colleagues to visit two mining locations they will be working on in the near future. Picked up and departing around eight in the morning on a bus, they all embarked on a two-hour-long road journey. Around 10 o'clock, everyone arrived at the destination. Upon getting off the bus, everyone was asked to wait briefly at the first checkpoint. Before entering the site, all representatives from each company were provided with mining equipment first. From safety helmets, protective jackets, and even changing into suitable footwear for the mining site they were about to visit. Once properly equipped, everyone started touring the area. They were guided to see and directly inspect one of the largest tin mines in Malaysia. Initially, in today's agenda, only Darwin and Sean were going to represent Vortex and the In

25. Of Course Jealous
Darwin had just finished getting dressed. Walking over to the bed, he found Veronica still fast asleep. Last night, after finishing up a report, Darwin had seen Veronica wake up briefly before falling back asleep. Now, feeling that his wife had rested enough, he took the initiative to wake her up. Besides, Veronica hadn't eaten or drunk anything since last night. He was worried she might be dehydrated or even weak due to not having any energy sources entering her body. For a moment, before actually waking her up, Darwin chose to observe for a bit. Gazing at Veronica's calm face as she slept. There was no longer that fearful expression he had seen before. If you really looked closely, Veronica did have a pretty face and a well-proportioned body like the dream women of men. But, for some reason, Darwin always brushed that aside. In his mind and heart, there was only frustration because Veronica's prese

26. Holiday or Honeymoon?
It was already midnight, twelve o'clock. Darwin and Veronica were now both lying in bed, back to back.Knowing that his wife wasn't asleep yet, Darwin cleared his throat, summoning the courage from somewhere. This time, he deliberately tried to lighten the mood. "You're not sleeping?" he asked, still lying back-to-back. "Are you also wondering why I'm not sleeping?" Instead of an answer, Veronica asked back. Darwin even scratched his eyebrow out of confusion, trying to figure out how to express the rational reason why he hadn't fallen asleep yet. "Just not sleepy." "Same here. Besides, I'm sure there's something you want to ask me, right?" Veronica guessed, as if she could read what Darwin was thinking. "How did you know? Is your dad a psychic or something?" "No, my dad's a businessman." Darwin stifled a laugh.

27. Together
Darwin awoke from his sleep. Gathering his awareness while blinking his eyes, he keenly felt how his left arm was tingling and sore. As he slowly lowered his gaze, Darwin was immediately surprised. There was Veronica, currently sleeping in a position where she was hugging his body. The woman's breaths sounded very steady. Her peaceful face indicated that her sleep must be quite sound at the moment. Darwin slowly attempted to pull his arm and body away from Veronica's embrace. But instead of letting go, she reflexively tightened her hug even more. This left Darwin even more perplexed and ultimately forced him to wake her up. "Veronica..." the man whispered. "Veronica Ashborne. Wake up quickly," he gently commanded, occasionally patting his wife's cheek. Veronica didn't pay any attention whatsoever. It's possible she didn't hear. Or perhaps her sleep was so deep that she wasn't awa

28. Dating With Sean?
Darwin and Veronica are back in Indonesia. After taking a whole day to rest, they decided to get back to work and regular activities this morning. Since their relationship has improved a lot, having breakfast together this morning was pretty chill, peaceful, and under control. They even seem to have no problem commuting to work together anymore. Before this, they used to carpool but chose to stay silent. But it's quite different this morning. Darwin and Veronica appear comfortable, even chatting with each other. Their conversation is dominated by work-related stuff. You could say that spending a few days together in Malaysia helped build a bit of chemistry between them. Yeah, even though it's just a little, it's enough to make them feel at ease with each other. "When I'm done correcting the files from last night, I'll just take them to the room so they can be signed right away. The sooner it's done,

29. Birthday's Gift
For nearly an hour, Darwin wandered around the mall looking for something. He went from the trinket shops to the high-end branded stores. He was really trying hard to find something that would be just right for him to buy and give as a gift. Now, what Darwin was doing wasn't without reason or cause. It all started from a playful curiosity and a serious case of being 'nosy squared', which ended up making him curious all by himself. Two days ago, Darwin was having a meeting with a client at a Japanese restaurant. He intentionally bought sushi for Veronica to have as her lunch. Somehow, after handing over the food to Veronica directly in her room, he found himself tempted to eavesdrop on the conversation between his wife and Deasy, who happened to be visiting the Infinix Group building. Since the executive offices were on a dedicated floor at the far end, it was certain that no employees would be passin

30. Making Love with Darwin?
"Can't you just not contact me for just one day?" Randy grumbled in frustration as he approached Darwin at one of the bars that Darwin often frequented. An hour ago, his cousin had called, inviting him to meet up. And somehow, what issue would be discussed this time was still unclear. It was a holiday, after all. Randy really wanted to rest at home. However, those hopes and plans were completely dashed because Darwin whined, asking to be accompanied, claiming he was feeling down and needed a friend to talk to. "Come on, Ran. I'll treat you tonight. Besides, I don't have any friends to go out with." "Why not ask Kennedy?" Randy retorted over the phone. Having just finished his shower, he sighed lazily, irritated that he was being asked to go out without even having had a chance to relax. "It's a bit complicated if I ask Kennedy," Darwin replied softly. "The other day, I took her o
