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

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. Remind her to stay away from alcohol from now on." The man's face was filled with anxiety, a sign that

"Hang in there, Elena," Jonathan pleaded with a look of panic that never left his beautiful face.Jonathan's words were only met with a slow, wistful blink from Elena.

The look of panic they saw on Jonathan's face made them immediately give way.A nurse gave him a gesture that instantly stopped Jonathan from entering the emergency room.The door to the room in front of him was closed.
