After reading her mother's diary, Angel finally went to the doctor that day. However, she had to go alone because Kina said she couldn't take her and she apologized. Even so, Angel didn't blame her, because she also just decided to leave after hours after reading the diary.
Meanwhile, Angel didn't tell Dave. She was picked up and escorted by her private driver to an obstetrician clinic. Because for some reason Angel felt that there was something strange about her body. In addition, she can also feel the symptoms of pregnancy such as nausea, a sharp sense of smell or the feeling of wanting something and rapid emotional changes. Angel also realized that her monthly period did not come.
When Angel arrived and sat in front of the doctor, she was very nervous. Her heart was beating very fast.
Angel was full of anticipation. She was afraid that her guess would be wrong, but also afraid that her guess would be right. The woman didn't know how to feel. She didn

Angel was waiting for Dave on the bed. Her husband came home late and is currently cleaning himself in the bathroom. Angel put the white folder under the pillow. She would take it out later when they talked. While waiting, Angel thought of a series of words she would say to Dave. To be sure, she didn't want to seem overly enthusiastic, afraid that she might turn out to be wrong and that would upset him. Angel will only reveal that this is her routine health check. Dave finally came out of the bathroom. He only glanced at Angel before leaving to check his phone which he put on the sofa. “Dave!” called Angel out of impatience. “Hm.” "How was your job today?" Angel asked for small talk. While holding his phone, Dave stepped closer to Angel. "Everything's fine," Dave replied. He put his phone on the nightstand and climbed onto the bed. His warm gaze met Angel's nervously blinking eyes. "Why ask?" he asked. Angel shook her head. "It

Angel's pregnancy, which was confirmed that night, also reached Kina, who had just entered her room. She stared at the phone screen with a flat gaze. Her hands gripped tightly. With all the emotions wracked in her heart, she slammed the object onto the floor, making a loud sound. Her phone was thrown several times before landing with a shattered screen, but Kina didn't seem to care. She simply glanced away towards the bed, plopped down onto the covers, before letting out a muffled scream. *** The next morning, Angel was escorted by Dave to the shop in a car driven by a driver. "Are you sure?" Dave asked for the umpteenth time this morning. Angel smiled amusedly. "I'm sure, yes. Besides, pregnant women have to move a lot. It's dangerous if I just stay at home doing nothing. After all, it's only the early weeks. Don't worry," Angel said, comforting her husband who had been persuading her to stay at home instead of going to the flower shop as usual.

Afternoon came very quickly. Dave just called Angel and said he'd stop by for lunch. Angel knew how busy her husband was, so she was overjoyed when Dave said they should have lunch together. However, Angel felt bad about Kina's presence. Because while Angel is happy, his sister is sad. Angel doesn't know what the problem is, but she is sure that this must have something to do with Kina's adoptive family. Even Kina no longer brought up the happy news that Angel shared last night, making the pregnant woman reluctant to discuss it. Because even until this afternoon, Kina still looks gloomy and continues to cling to Angel wherever she goes."Dave is coming this afternoon?" asked Kina as they were spraying green leaves on the back porch of the shop. Kina's voice sounded unenthusiastic, making Angel turn her head."Yes, he will come," she replied.“Hmmm.”“….”The silence that stretched between them this time was somehow su

Vida widened her eyes in confusion as the blue-eyed man dragged her through the passageway from the toilet to the back door of the bar. There was no one there and no one to turn to for help. Usually there are bodyguards guarding the back of the bar, but because tonight the bar was quite busy with visitors, all the bodygyards were on duty at the front.In the end Vida could only give up, letting the man half drag her with wide strides. However, when at last the man's steps stopped, Vida immediately jerked her hand and freed herself from the man. The man let her off easily, but still stood in front of her as if to prevent her from running.Vida suddenly felt scared. What if this man was mean to her, trying to rape her? It was quiet here and the screams would surely be overpowered by the loud banging music up ahead.Her terrified expression must have been readable as a cold smile instantly appeared on the blue eyed man's lips."Don't dream too far.

"Oh, then I'm sorry." Vida immediately realized that the man in front of her was not the man she was supposed to meet. She must find Mr. Arga who is now somewhere. "Looks like I entered the wrong room."Vida nervously stood up from her seat, then half bowed politely towards Liam. She hastily turned around to walk away from the room."You didn't enter the wrong room, Vida, you really should have come here. I told Mr. Arga to leave earlier."Liam's words made Vida's steps near the door stop. She then turned around and looked at him in confusion. "You told Mr. Arga to leave? So my transfer has something to do with you?"Liam smiled sweetly. "Your transfer is only used as a tool so I can meet you without causing gossip. Even your current superiors in administration don't know anything about this. I put you under the supervision of Mr. Arga because he is one of the people I trust in this company."Liam gestured with his hand. "Come, si

He then took out a photo and a letter envelope of beautiful golden paper."I don't know, miss. Mr. Roy Wijaya told me to give this to you. He said, after you see this, you will definitely want to come with me to the Wijaya family's residence," he answered as he handed the envelope and photo sheet into Vida's hand.She received the photo and envelope of the letter. She turned over the photo that had yellowed with age and then frowned when she saw it.

People used to always say that her mother was ver
