At 7 in the morning, Maelie just woke up and found a glass of milk and a sandwich on the bedside table, along with a note underneath the glass. She immediately sat down, took the paper, and read it.Happy birthday, Sistaa ... I love you so much, you mean everything to me ... May you always be healthy, beautiful, and never sad again. Just think about how to make your baby grow healthy and be born without any risks to your body. I'll be very excited for my first nieces. I hope it's a girl, because I'd gladly play dolls with her, or tie her hair, which might be the same color as yours ... I don't know what to give you, we're rich now. Lol! But maybe I'll make something special for you ... See you laterShe smiled faintly, then hugged the paper. "I shouldn't be sad after all," she said, then immediately enjoyed the strawberry jam sandwich, occasionally sipping on caramel-flavored pregnancy milk.Her attention was diverted to a knock on the door from outside."Come in!" she called out.In

Erland was silent, looking at Maelie who was looking at him with hope, so he didn't have the heart to tell her about Tiffany being pregnant."Hey..." Maelie frowned. "Did you...""I've already said that I want to divorce." Erland stopped Maelie. "And her response made me even more convinced to leave her.""Really? What did she say?""She ..." Erland swallowed his saliva, trying to get rid of his nervousness. "She doesn't care about our marriage anymore so it doesn't matter if I want us to divorce..but she wants to leave all these problems to me... I mean... I have to explain to our family why we have to divorce... The point is, she doesn't want to take care of the divorce process." Finally, he lied but was still scared when Maelie frowned."Didn't she ask why you suddenly wanted a divorce? Why did she let you go so easily as if she didn't love you?" Maelie wondered.Erland sighed and shifted his focus to the spaghetti by moving it into the plate he had provided."I told you that there

"Is she pregnant?" Teddy furrowed his brow, then looked at Maelie."Yes... it's normal because she has a husband," Erland replied.Teddy immediately clenched his fists, approaching Erland, but Maelie quickly stood up and blocked him."Uncle!" Maelie exclaimed angrily. "Please, stop blaming Erland. He has reasons for all the lies he told, and now I'm okay with it. Besides, look at what he's given me. He's made my dreams come true, my life is better now, I don't have to work hard anymore..."Teddy fell silent, looking at Maelie, who looked much more glamorous than usual."There's no need to argue here," Maelie said again. "And what would you do for me, anyway? I'm carrying his child, I love him, I'll only be happy with him... I won't be happy without him I'll be in trouble... This baby will need him so much!" she continued, pointing to her stomach.Teddy sighed, his gaze becoming melancholy."But you're just the second wife, the mistress... Are you sure his first wife will accept this?

"You're lying," Erland murmured."I'm not lying," Maelie replied, sneering, her hand caressing Erland's muscular and slightly hairy chest while her eyes remained fixed on his hazel eyes. "Now you're saying I'm beautiful... That's true and I know it. I could easily get love from other men... but I don't do it. Even though I could... I choose to stay with you because I'm pregnant, and I want wealth," she continued, occasionally biting her lower lip as if captivated by Erland's body."Whatever you said, I know you're lying...""Then tell me why you're saying I'm lying."Erland shifted his gaze from her lips to her neck, then stroked her shoulder."Because you're a good girl," he said."Then what do you think a good girl deserves to have a liar man?" Maelie asked, making Erland immediately look at her.Erland just remained silent, pained, realizing his mistake, making him feel suffocated and quickly turning away."If I hadn't already married Tiffany, I would marry you without having to li

After lounging lazily on the bed, Erland and Maelie decided to get up and enjoy breakfast in the dining room, accompanied by Amanda and Tommy, who happened to come to discuss work."I told my mom," Erland said while eating stir-fried chicken with vegetables."What?" Tommy asked, raising his eyebrows."I told my mom about my relationship with Maelie," Erland explained casually, then resumed eating with his fork.Tommy swallowed his food, staring at Erland with wide eyes as if surprised, while Maelie and Amanda remained silent, focusing on their food."You're crazy, Boss," Tommy muttered, furrowing his brow and shaking his head. "You're asking for trouble...""No... this isn't trouble," Erland replied, raising his eyebrows. "I'm sure she'll help me deal with this issue... But actually, this isn't a problem... I feel like I don't have a problem... Choosing who I'll marry and who I'll spend my life with until I'm old are not a problem," he continued casually, resuming eating."But..." Tom
