On this Saturday, Darwin indeed has a day off work. After dropping off Veronica, who wanted to do some treatments at the salon, he decided to visit his parents' house. Darwin thought that instead of getting bored waiting for his wife, it would be better to pay a visit and chat with his parents.
Moreover, the distance between the salon and the Walters Family's residence is very short. So, it wouldn't take long, especially considering there's no traffic jam.
Upon arriving at the Alamanda district, Darwin immediately parked his car in the driveway. As soon as he got out, he could see his mother who was busy arranging the flowers she had planted in the front yard of the house.
"Good morning, Mom."
Claudia Walters, who was engrossed in spraying and arranging decorative flower pots by the side of the house, turned to look. A wide smile appeared on the 50-year-old woman's lips as she saw her beloved son sud
"Win, in your opinion, which dress looks better on me?"Veronica seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma as she tried to choose a dress to wear to her father's company birthday party. She had pulled out almost her entire collection of best dresses from the wardrobe. Deliberately, she laid them out. She even asked Darwin to help her decide."Should I go with the black Sabrina-style one? The off-shoulder broken white? The mermaid cut, or just the cocktail dress?" Veronica asked once again, showing each dress to Darwin, who was standing there struggling to button his freshly worn white shirt.In the midst of the barrage of questions, Darwin momentarily turned to look. Furrowing his brow, he then responded."Up to you. They all seem suitable for you."Veronica pouted. That's often how it goes when seeking advice from men. They always play it safe, and sometimes avoid trouble by giving the 'up to you' a
Throughout his lifetime, Darwin never expected that his life's journey could be as complicated as it is now. However, if we delve deep into the past, his life could be considered quite joyful.His career and job had been going so smoothly. Even in matters of romance, not a single obstacle had arisen. Building a relationship from always being together, then being separated for some time, didn't diminish the flames of love between Darwin and Vivian.Both of them managed to weather all the storms that came their way. They kept looking out for each other, offering mutual support, and promising to stay loyal no matter the circumstances.Until a significant problem emerged. The sudden instability of the Infinix Group's position prompted Magnus Walters to seek help from a close friend. Feeling indebted and recalling a past promise, this led the Chinese descendant man to arrange a marriage between Darwin and the friend's daughte
"Happy birthday, Mr. Galael."Sean smiled widely as he had just arrived at a restaurant, where Deasy warmly and enthusiastically welcomed him. Not only that, but his ex-girlfriend's friend, Deasy, had even prepared and given him a gift box that was probably prepared well in advance to be given to him.Sean was certainly happy. He had even forgotten that today was his birthday. He felt lucky that there were still others who remembered and went out of their way to celebrate and surprise him."Oh my gosh. So, you called me earlier and told me to hurry to Holycow because you had prepared all of this?"Deasy smiled and nodded. She had reserved a spot at the famous restaurant a few days ago to celebrate Sean's birthday together.Actually, this wasn't the first time. Before Sean continued his studies abroad, Deasy had celebrated his birthday with him and Veronica. The three of them had
Before truly enjoying her holiday and departure to South Korea with Darwin, Veronica appeared busy wrapping up remaining tasks. Since morning, the woman had been engrossed at her work desk.From checking several important files, compiling signed deadline reports, to sorting out documents that had been approved and ready to be sent.Sean, aware of Veronica's busyness in her office, took the initiative to help. After lunchtime, he deliberately went down to the cafeteria to buy drinks and a cake for Veronica to snack on while finishing her work."Have the drink first. I also got you a red velvet slice to enjoy while going through the documents," Sean offered, handing Veronica a bottled tea and a small box of red velvet cake he had bought.Veronica looked up and simultaneously broke into a smile. She simply accepted the warm gesture Sean extended to her."You're going through so much
"Win, are you seriously just bringing this much stuff?" Veronica asked as she once again checked the contents of the suitcases they were moving into the car.Darwin nodded. As he placed a charger and a tablet into a special bag, he responded to his wife's question."Yes. How much do you want to bring? We're only going to be in Korea for four days.""But this outfit is only three pieces, you know. Is it enough?""Enough," Darwin confidently replied. "We're going to stop by my house in Korea. When it comes to clothes, there are plenty there. And if we still need more, we can just buy some. It's really pointless to have a wealthy wife but not make use of it.""Damn!" Veronica exclaimed, then burst into laughter.Making sure that nothing was missing or left behind, Veronica and Darwin then went downstairs to the first floor and started putting their suitcases into the car trun
"Can't you give a better gift?!" Darwin grumbled as he and Veronica had just arrived at the restaurant for lunch. There, Randy, Kennedy, Luna, and Kalvin were already gathered. While Darwin's complaints were audible, Kennedy also wore a similar expression. Just from his face, the man appeared visibly irritated. This was in stark contrast to Randy, who was simply bursting with laughter. "Do you even know what Randy got me and Luna as gifts?" "What did that scoundrel give you guys?" Darwin asked as he turned towards his cousin. "He gave Luna a super sexy bikini. And me?" "What?" Darwin asked once again, this time with an even more curious expression. "Can you believe it, this jerk gave me blood pressure medication. How rude!" Randy's laughter grew even louder. In fact, his laughter was so infectious that
Darwin double-checks the contents of the backpack given by Randy, which he will use for the upcoming Mount Hallasan hike in a little while. He reexamines the items inside, such as a compass, folding knife, small flashlight, disposable raincoat, multipurpose bag, walkie-talkie, water bottle, some snacks, and, of course, a first aid kit.Even though this climb isn't all the way to the summit and isn't like what professional climbers typically do, Darwin still needs to prepare everything thoroughly. Anticipating both good and bad scenarios they might encounter on the journey."Is everyone ready?" Darwin asks Veronica, who is currently putting on gloves and specialized hiking boots."Ready," she nods as she looks up. "Everything's sorted. We just need to set off."Darwin nods as well. Ten minutes later, his cellphone rings. It's Kennedy calling, asking him and Veronica to gather in the resort lobby.
All the members of the group, who have recharged their energy, start moving down with enthusiasm. Just as Choi Min Soo mentioned, suddenly the previously sunny weather shifts to overcast and cold.Mysteriously, fog appears along the way. Kennedy, Randy, and Darwin's group even stop for about 15 minutes at the first checkpoint.After confirming a somewhat safe condition and making sure to stay ahead of any rain, they hurry to continue on to the next checkpoint.However, after only an hour of descending, the fog returns, even thicker than before. As a result, their visibility is significantly reduced for a while. After proceeding cautiously, the entire group eventually reaches the last checkpoint."Sir, how long does it take to reach the entrance gate?" Kennedy inquires, making sure."About 15 to 20 minutes."Kennedy nods in understanding. To check on the rest
