Anna woke up in the hospital the next day. Last night, she had a c-section because of the preterm labor. David was sitting near her. “Is the baby, okay?” She asked weakly. “The baby is in intensive care,” David said calmly. “Oh my God, is she going to be, okay?” concern was evident on her face. “All her vital signs are okay; however, she is in the incubator.” David cupped her face gently. “No need to worry, Anna, her pediatric doctor is a known specialist.” David reached for Anna and hugged her. At this very moment, she wanted to feel his warmth because she couldn't control her anxiety. Then the Doctor came to visit. “Good morning, Mrs. Miller.” She was an older woman with kind eyes. “I’m Doctor Avery Samuel, nice to meet you,” she said. “Nice to meet you too Doctor,” Anna replied. “Can I see my baby?” “Yes, but We had to wait for your OB-GYN, Doctor Ethan's recommendation.” “When it’s safe to move you, then you can visit your baby, but you have to understand that you cannot
David cupped her face and said, “There is nothing that can make me queasy when it comes from you.”“Your body is where my child grows, and your blood is her blood also.”“Don’t ever think that it is something to be embarrassed about.”Anna smiled weakly at the man before her. ‘How could she not love this man?’David led her to the shower while helping her out of her clothes.He reached out to take the soap, but she said, “Please let me do it on my own, my breast is so sore, and it hurts too much.”“Okay, but let me do your back.” he insisted as he watched her.“We can visit the baby after breakfast.” he said.At this point, Anna was excited to see Selene. She swiftly finished her bath and changed into a wrap-around pink floral dress.They ate their breakfast and went to the hospital after.They were looking at their child through the incubator, she was so beautiful yet so fragile. 'I can't wait to hold her in my arms,' Anna thought. She felt so mesmerized by her. David wrapped his arm
Is this the same regal gathering that you skipped by claiming that you had another headache?" Sara mocked at me. "Yes— well, it would appear that he's still a bachelor and the CEO of his own investment banking business." My step-sister Annet wants to get a date with him, her true age mustn't be mentioned under any circumstances. "Why is it that I should not be surprised by it? "Sarah chortled, a sly sparkle appearing in her dark eyes as she spoke. " You're a bad girl!" Anna cracked a grin. Sara heaved a shriek as she said," I only wish you would be mischievous once in a while."“It's about time you got out there and started enjoying yourself again," I told you. Anna blazoned," Well, I'm going to the party on Saturday," as she made her way across the room to the center counter and seized the order book from Sara's hand." And it's about time that you went to have some lunch. Gemma should be back any second now, and Gerald will not be much longer.' Gemma was a trainee, and Gerald was a
He knew her in the deepest, most particular manner that was humanly conceivable. But before he could think of a hello that was very cutting, Annet tensed her grasp on the other arm she had him by and started talking to the other person. "Anna, my sweetheart, allow me to introduce you to David. He's the wonderful man I was telling you about." David was able to pick up Annet's voice, but all he flashed back was her name. To Anna. So, what exactly had transpired with Hana? He had a pessimistic way of thinking. She was cheating on her spouse under a fictitious name. But indeed, though she had been deceitful to him, there was no denying the fact that she was much more beautiful than he'd recalled. The first and only time he'd seen her before this party was a year ago. He and a group of his friends had taken a voyage around the Korean islets in his boat for a couple of weeks, something he did every summer. This party was the first and only time he'd seen her since that trip. They had cele
David Miller had never done anything like that before, and he didn't enjoy the experience in the least. Indeed though he wasn't happy to recognize the seductive Anna with Annet hanging on his arm, he wasn't prepared to allow the promiscuous little vixen get away with ignoring him. Brown eyes had glanced coolly in his direction and also back to Bryan, and he didn't like that at all. " Hello. Anna, are you there?" David grunted in a grueling manner. She cast a quick look in his direction, her chocolate eyes hidden by the absurdly long lashes that framed her deep brown eyes.' Yes. Hello,' she said, before fleetly turning her head down again. Permit me to say this because we haven't been duly introduced to one another. The name is David Miller. He was dead set on drawing her attention to himself, so he purposefully extended his hand to her in an attempt to do so. A stern look emanating from her eyes, followed by the extension of a delicate hand. After taking it in his hands and feeling
He cast his eyes about the room, curious as to which of the men there was her husband. David reflected critically on the man's good fortune, wondering whether or not he really was so fortunate. There was no misunderstanding of the sexual tension and raging desire that existed between Anna and him. There had been no mistake. He concluded that her poor husband was someone who should be pitied rather than envied.However, it was time for him to stop worrying about Annet and start doing what he had come to do, which was to assist his grandfather. He cast a quick glance across the room and noticed Bryan already comfortably situated, and for a few seconds their eyes connected. David was confused for a while because he appeared to be seeing bewilderment in his grandfather's eyes, but as he watched, Anna approached Bryan and offered him a brandy, and the elderly man broke out into a broad grin.Anna extended her hand to Bryan and offered him the brandy glass. "Are you sure that everything is
Anna was able to hear the two men shouting, and despite the fact that she detested the notion of confronting David, her concern for poor Bryan overwhelmed her anxiety about the situation. She got to her feet and then immediately launched into the Korean rant in a voice that was calm and controlled effectively. Excuse me, Mr. Miller, but your grandpa isn't feeling very well, and yelling at him won't do anything to improve his condition. Anna was giving him a piece of her mind! David was completely speechless since the woman had such courage. In case you had forgotten, he was involved in an accident, and at this point, he ought to be resting at home. “I was not shouting,” David said after it took him some time to find his voice. He intentionally reminded her of the intensity they had shared by stating, “We Koreans are as passionate in conversation as we are in everything.” He did not do so in a very subtle manner. “And I am fully aware of what it is that Bryan requires.” He cast a mur
She had a lot of respect for the elderly guy, but she had zero interest in having anything to do with his grandson, and she would have preferred it if he had departed as soon as possible. As Anna saw Bryan follow Annet and David out of the room and into the hallway, she let out a trembling sigh of relief. Annet replied in a sarcastic tone five minutes later, after she had returned after leading the guys out of the mansion, “Thanks so much.” You might have insisted on bringing the elderly gentleman home, and David could have stayed for a longer period as a result. Anna shrugged her shoulders and offered, “Maybe—you know better than I do.” It was as close as Anna believed she could go to warning Annet about how much of a serial womanizer David Miller was by saying, “But he strikes me as a man who does what he wants, and gets what he wants—women included.” Anna said this because she believed it was the only way she could adequately convey to Annet how much of a womanizer David Miller wa
