"Mr. Kingston Monica's health is deteriorating rapidly, and her time is limited."Andrew was taken aback by Evelyn's soft yet unwavering revelation. While he harbors a dislike for Monica because of the pain she caused Alice, he never wanted her life to end so tragically."Oh god gracious, how could that be?" Andrew uttered in stance."Monica's pregnancy has taken a dangerous turn, and it's doubtful she'll make it through delivery. Her medical prognosis suggests she might not survive after giving birth, as she'll be expending all her strength in the process." Samantha broke the somber silence with this grim account of Monica's condition."This is really distressing news. What about the baby then?" Andrew's voice was filled with grief and concern.He felt a deep sorrow for the unborn baby, knowing the pain of losing a mother.

Cascades of roses, peonies, and orchids are nestled in crystal vases, their fragrance mingling with the salty sea air.

She held true to her word, never accepting an outdoor shoot in the city. Today, however, she finally broke her promise and returned.While she had asked Andrew for some time to ponder over her decision, the idea of encountering her family or Monica again, let alone going back, was something she strongly resisted. It was the thought of Monica's unborn child that ultimately nudged her towards giving Monica one last opportunity to speak and attempt to persuade her to grant her wish."Is nostalgia hitting you?" Andrew questioned, seeing the twinkle in Alice's eyes as she peered out the window during landing."Hmm, a bit." Alice wiped the corners of her eyes.They exited the airport, locked in an embrace, and met with a barrage of Alice's fans requesting selfies, which slowly pushed Andrew away.

Bound By Paper Hearts Pandora's Box
"While we were in the hospital, Monica confided in me privately that Mason is desperately trying to locate her."Alice delivered the stunning revelation to Andrew, causing him to tense up and pinch the bridge of his nose in disbelief."What? What gotten into him out of the blue?""Monica wasn't in possession of the precise reason, but she speculates that he's interested in having the baby," Alice replied, her fingers fidgeting with unease."The baby? This just doesn't add up. Why the abrupt change of heart to wish for a child he abandoned even before she was born? Was Monica completely certain about this? Did he have any knowledge of the baby being in our care?"Andrew couldn't stop himself from firing off a barrage of questions, his agitation fueled by the shocking news of Mason's audacious moves."I'm not completely in the loop, but Monica relayed that a few days ago, she started getting a flurry of emails from Mason, inquiring about her location since she had blocked all his contac

Alice's face contorted in confusion as she asked."In the accident, his reproductive system suffered irreversible damage, rendering him unable to father a child. This explains why he's so determined to find Monica and their baby. He had no knowledge of Monica's health, her demise, or the baby's whereabouts. If he discovers that the child is with us, being the biological father, he may make efforts to reclaim her, putting us at a disadvantage."Andrew shared the intelligence he'd obtained through his spy. A frigid breath escaped him as he stated, "Monica's assessment of him was accurate. He had no real concern, only a desire to take her baby."Alice stood up, her voice nervous yet determined. "This is utter nonsense! He can't just take my child away. She belongs with me.
