"Darling, are you really kicking me out?"Nicole hung her head weakly. Let alone enjoying their first night as newlyweds, her status as a legitimate wife was about to disappear soon.Today was supposed to be a happy day. Everything was ruined instantly because of Aurora and Asher's actions."From now on, I'm divorcing you. Tomorrow, I'll take care of our divorce. So, please take all your belongings and leave. I don't want to see your face anymore!"Alex looked furious. Consumed by anger, he ordered Nicole to leave his mother's residence immediately.Moreover, what was the point of Alex holding onto Nicole? It was clear that he had been betrayed. Besides, the baby in her belly wasn't even his flesh and blood. So why should he persist, let alone take responsibility? It was a waste of time."But, Alex. I'm pregnant. Don't you have any pity for me?"Alex stared intently at Nicole, who was now sitting on the floor. She seemed to be trying to persuade Alex to reconsider his decision to kick
Reluctantly, after being openly driven out, verbally abused, and treated like trash, tonight Nicole was forced to return to her apartment.Ironically, after being arrogant, refusing even to act as though they were willing to acknowledge each other, Nicole ultimately left by accompanying Bastian.Upon reaching the apartment, the man responsibly helped carry the suitcase and some other belongings. Despite his reluctance, he insisted on buying food so that Nicole could sleep on a full stomach tonight.Bastian did this deliberately. Aware that Nicole was pregnant with his child, he didn't want their unborn baby to become a victim of the ongoing issues."No need to seek attention!"Nicole, sitting on the living room sofa, immediately sneered. She glanced at Bastian, who had just brought her a cold drink."I'm not seeking attention," Bastian replied casually. He continued arranging the food he had bought on the dining table."Then what do you call this if not seeking attention?""No need fo
Aurora's face looked cheerful all day long. Despite having many difficult tasks to complete, she seemed to handle everything with ease. Velia, who had been observing, even wondered what made her friend's mood so good since earlier."Why have you been smiling all this time?"Just as she sat down at her desk, Velia questioned her. Being curious, she wanted to confirm what had actually happened."Why? Isn't smiling a part of worship?"Velia immediately groaned."Oh my God, that's so cliché. Everywhere, if someone smiles without a reason, it means they have a mental disorder. It's better to quickly get checked by Dr. Donna."Aurora immediately frowned. How dare she be accused of being crazy like that."Careless. I'm just happy enjoying my freedom. After all the problems are solved, it feels so relieved."Knowing why Aurora was happier, Velia groaned immediately. She remembered how her friend had kept hiding what was happening."Ah, not a friend. You call yourself a friend. But, there's a
Alex massaged his throbbing temples. His head felt like it was about to explode thinking about how to pay off the debt Aurora had demanded from him.For Alex, 10 million wasn't a small amount. Even after calculating the assets distribution, he could only back up half of it."Mom... let's just sell this house. For God's sake, Alex doesn't know where to find a large amount of money in just a few days."In the living room, Alex tried to discuss with his mother. Persuading and pleading with Savana to consider the suggestion he was offering.After all, selling their only house was Alex's only hope of quickly paying off the debt. Then they could move to a smaller house and start anew."No way!"Savana shook her head firmly. She immediately rejected her beloved son's request."You can ask for anything from Mama. But not to sell the house. This is the only inheritance from your late father. If we sell it, what else will we have to remember him by?"Alex sighed heavily. He was torn. In his hea
In the past, it wasn't easy for Aurora to seek her parents' blessing to marry Alex.Apart from feeling that they weren't from similar backgrounds, Alex at the time didn't have a steady job either. "Even though both are educated, Alex still isn't the right match for Aurora, Dad. What's the use of having a high education if he doesn't even have a stable job? Not to mention, he's known for changing partners frequently. I'm worried that Aurora might be left behind when he gets bored.""Dad, I'm not entirely comfortable either. But Aurora seems determined to choose Alex."Truly, Joshua was uncertain. He was worried about letting go of his beloved daughter to a man he considered not yet established. Especially when Asher revealed a fact that Alex was someone who liked changing partners frequently.It was difficult for Joshua and Elena to give their blessing. But because Aurora kept trying to convince them, and Alex also tried to win over his future in-laws, Joshua eventually agreed to their
Actually, Aurora is a bit traumatized by the events at the hospital a few days ago. It's not about arguing with Savana that bothers her. Instead, it's about the violent actions carried out by her former mother-in-law that nearly caused her physical harm.If there hadn't been anyone to help, Aurora is certain she would have sustained injuries from being slapped and scratched by Savana. Just imagine, in her rage, that woman came and attacked without caring about her surroundings.Meanwhile, Asher has repeatedly urged Aurora to report this incident to the authorities so that Savana would be deterred. But, because she doesn't want to prolong the issue, she chooses not to discuss the incident."Can you believe you have a former mother-in-law acting like a lunatic?"Velia keeps on talking. She's so frustrated that she almost always condemns Savana's actions as going too far."Throughout the marriage, did that witch of a grandmother often mistreat you or what? I suspect she enjoys domestic v
"Asher, haven't you finished your work yet?"In the evening, when it was time to leave work, Aurora deliberately approached her younger brother who was in the ER room. She wanted to make sure Asher had finished his work since it was time to go home.Aurora asked for a reason. Considering after the incident with Savana, Asher insisted on escorting his sister, meaning she had to go home with him."I'm still checking the patient diagnoses. Some of them are in unstable condition.""So, should I wait for you?"Before Asher could answer, several nurses ran over, asking Asher to move to provide medical treatment urgently."Doc, there's an emergency in the VIP room. Dr. Alfredo tried to handle it. He's asking for Dr. Asher to perform the surgery."Asher nodded. He quickly got ready."Let me check the patients first. You guys prepare the operating room." Then Asher approached his sister again. "Aurora, you go home with the driver. I'll call for pick-up later."Although Aurora had already agree
"Let me help you carry it down."As the car he was driving arrived right in front of Aurora's house, Alden gladly offered his assistance. Despite the short distance, he couldn't bear to see the woman carrying her shopping items alone."Don't worry, it's free. I won't charge for the help."Alden continued to offer his help, persuading Aurora until she finally nodded in agreement."Thanks for your help. Sorry for bothering you.""Not at all, Aurora."After all, what's so difficult about helping to carry shopping bags? It didn't require much effort at all."No need to thank me for such things.""But..." Aurora interjected after a moment. "Regarding what happened at the bakery earlier, I also want to thank you. Thank you for making my troublesome cousin shut up."Alden chuckled. He had already forgotten about it, but now he was reminded. It was funny to think about how he responded to the ridiculous accusations from Aurora's cousin."No wonder she wanted to split from Alex quickly. Turns
