"Do you need me to accompany you?" asked Gideon once the car he was driving arrived at a lodge.Elena had asked him to drop her off at the lodge in the Lake Rotorua tourist destination, saying she wanted to enjoy the panoramic view of the lake and have some time to calm down around Lake Rotorua."No need, Gee; enjoy your weekend. I just want to be alone for now," the blonde woman said as she unloaded the suitcase filled with clothes and makeup. The woman's face lowered, revealing the sadness that Gideon felt—a real sense of sadness, even though Elena was only pretending. To cover up her mistake of berating Amelie in the shop where she worked some time ago.The incident at Demiurge had made Gideon silence Elena these past few days. The man expressed his disappointment towards Elena's inappropriate plans and actions towards Amelie, arguing, "I did it all for your sake, Gee; I'm not willing for that woman to reject and humiliate you in front of many people."Silence fell between them, u

"Do I need to wait until you get inside the house?" asked a man from behind the wheel. The man's eyes stared at the magnificent palace-like house where Elena lived with her husband's family."Oh, no need, I'll be right down," Elena said as she looked at the house, hoping that her mother-in-law would not notice her arrival. There was only Katie and Abravo talking on the steps of the terrace.When he saw Elena coming downstairs with her suitcase, Abravo quickly opened the railing to let the young lady in. Katie, who was also there at the time, carried Elena's suitcase without prompting. Katie's gaze was distracted by the white luxury car that was currently turning around. The girl was sure that it was with that car that Elena returned to the house. But who was the man driving the car?The pounding of Elena's high heels alerted Katie to immediately follow Elena into the house."I'm home, Mom," Elena said as she crossed the lounge room.The middle-aged woman who was reading the newspaper

Elena smiled when she saw her husband enter the room. She then spread her arms, signaling that she was ready to receive a hug from her husband.But Jonathan didn't give her the hug she was expecting. Instantly, her smile disappeared, replaced by a look of disappointment."You're home," Jonathan said without looking at Elena. In fact, the man chose to sit on the bed and open his laptop. As if Elena's presence there didn't matter. In fact, they did not meet for almost a month.Jonathan's attitude threw Elena's memory to Asher. Of course, it would be different if Asher were the one who was currently in Jonathan's position. Instantly, Elena's heart felt like a dilemma.Being in love with someone who loves us more will certainly make us receive more love and attention every day.However, Elena didn't want to be rash and immediately left Jonathan for Asher. Because she didn't know the ins and outs of Asher and his family. Because it could be that Asher's parents are the type of in-laws who

That afternoon, the Hayes family entered a French restaurant, a restaurant built on land owned by Edmund Hayes by mutual agreement between Jonathan and the owner of the restaurant, Bryan Arthur.The restaurant is located on Ponsonby Road. Because of its strategic location and proximity to upper-middle-class housing, Bryan was interested in opening a branch of his business there.Elena and the rest of the family looked closely at all the ornaments in the restaurant. Sighs of admiration kept escaping their lips.A white sedan pulled into the Chez Rouze parking lot. The man in the driver's seat lowered the windshield as a waiter approached him. The man knitted his black eyebrows together with a questioning look."Mr. Jonathan's family has arrived," said the 25-year-old waiter standing next to Bryan's car."Alright, I'll be right there."The waiter re-entered the restaurant after delivering the message.Bryan glanced at the watch on his wrist. He had arrived just in time for the time Jona

Bryan escorted the Hayes family to the main entrance of Chez Rouze that afternoon. The man's lips did not stop smiling as they were about to part. The compliment that escaped their lips was the reason why."Tomorrow night, come to my house for dinner. I'll prepare your favorite meal," Theresia said, to which the other family members agreed with a nod."Yes, Auntie. I'll be there tomorrow night." Bryan replied with a confident smile."You still remember the way to my house, don't you, Bryan?" asked Jonathan in a joking tone."Of course I do! You even forgot that I grew up in your house," Bryan recalled, laughing out loud.The man remembered that, from the time he was a child until he was a teenager, he always went to Jonathan's house when school was over. He would only return home when his grandparents called and asked him to come home."I'll say goodbye, brother," Jonathan shook Bryan's hand, and they embraced after the familiarity of their childhood."I'll be home; don't forget."The

From behind the bougainvillea bushes that grew thickly near the garage, a girl quietly spied on Asher, who was chatting with Abravo.She strained her ears for a long time, hoping to overhear the two men's conversation that led to her suspicions of the bald-headed man. However, the suspicious sentence that led to her opinion about Elena's relationship with the two men who came tonight did not appear.For a moment, Katie snorted in annoyance and almost returned to join the other servants in the pavilion. However, Elena's arrival near Asher and Abravo discouraged her from joining the other workers.From a distance, Elena could be seen walking back and forth with one hand on her forehead while the other was above her waist."Damn, this is crazy!" muttered Elena, who could not accept the fact that Asher was only a driver."What's wrong with you, ma'am?" asked Abravo with a panicked look on his face.The woman's face was as red as boiled shrimp, while her eyes widened like they were about t
Be a wife After Five Years Apart 67. Poor fetus
In front of the bed in a room, a neatly dressed man stood while gently rubbing the bridge of his nose. The clock on the wall reads 8 a.m., but his wife has yet to wake up.His gaze fell on a woman who was still sleeping under a navy-colored bedcover. The woman's bulging belly looked like a hill under the thick blanket.Jonathan pulled the bedcover that Elena used to cover her body, although he was reluctant to do so. However, his concern for the condition of the fetus in Elena's stomach was so great that this morning he planned to take his wife to the gynecologist."Eng," Elena murmured as Jonathan pulled back the blanket she was wearing."Get ready. We should be at the hospital in 20 minutes."Jonathan ordered with both hands tucked into his pants pockets. He had made an appointment with Lucas, the obstetrician whom Theresia trusted.Elena reached back for the blanket that now only covered her calves and below. She then tilted her body to face Jonathan. Elena's eyebrows knit together

Theresia asked Jonathan to take her home when a sudden pulse of pain shot through her head. Her explosive emotions made her blood pressure rise dramatically, but she refused to be hospitalized.Memories of being treated in a room smelling of drugs due to a poisonous insect sting a long time ago made her reluctant to return to that place. Because his movements would always be restricted, and there was nothing to comfort him there.Jonathan then called Russell, the Hayes family doctor, to check on his mother's condition while lying on the bed. The middle-aged woman's eyes were closed with her eyebrows knitted together, as if even in her sleep she was still enduring the pain that attacked her head."How is it, Russell?" Jonathan asked Russell when the man finished checking Theresia's condition."Her blood pressure is very high. It's best to keep her away from things that trigger stress.
