Alexander's POVAfter that night at the hospital, I didn't go back because I left the company late.Nina wasn't there to help with some of the tasks, so I had to take care of them myself, which made me finish work late.I had also noticed that I had left my wristwatch and suit jacket behind.I went back the next day to get them and say hello to Finn.When I got there, I saw Finn lying on the hospital bed. Seeing him there reminded me of when I was little and used to lie on a hospital bed, away from home. It broke my heart to see him going through the same thing.Nina was sitting beside him, gently stroking his head. He seemed to still be asleep.She stood up the moment I entered the room and gently pulled a chair for me to sit on so I wouldn't wake Finn. But he eventually woke up.From Nina's expression, I could tell she was surprised to see me, especially in the morning when I was supposed to be at the company.“Uncle Alex!” Finn called immediately when he saw me.From his weak voic

Nina's POVI woke up the next morning and found myself wrapped in Alexander's suit jacket. I groggily rubbed my eyes and looked around the room.Alexander was nowhere to be found. I was sure he had stayed overnight, but I couldn't tell where he had gone.The door suddenly burst open, and Zoe entered.“Gosh, I heard Finn was rushed to the hospital and that his condition has suddenly worsened?” Zoe asked immediately as she walked in.I nodded gently.She walked straight over and gently placed her black leather bag on the table beside Finn's bed. Then, she sat at the edge of the bed and stared at me.“Nina... you look exhausted,” she said softly.I sighed lazily. I was really exhausted and completely out of options.“I still can't find their father, Zoe. And Finn's health... I'm scared of what might happen if he isn't treated soon.” My chest tightened as I felt a ball of tears welling up in my eyes.The beeping of the machine echoed through the room as Zoe stared at me intently, seemingl

Alexander's POVI had almost kissed her when her phone suddenly rang. I didn't know why I couldn't hold myself back. I really wanted her.She started it first. If she hadn't teased me earlier, I wouldn't have lost control.When she came back, her countenance had changed. She looked so worried and worked up.Knowing Nina as well as I did, it could only be her children who could make her look that worried.Not up to thirty minutes later, her phone rang again. This time, I was close enough to hear everything.Sarah had called to inform her that Finn had been rushed to the hospital because his health had suddenly worsened.Hearing about Finn's health made me feel bad. A child shouldn't be suffering like this. I could count how many times he had been to the hospital within two months.I also felt for Nina. She had to carry this burden alone.The foolish man she had children with couldn't even be there for her. I wondered how she had met that kind of man.Nina was smart and intelligent, so

Nina's POVI couldn't believe I had heard correctly. Alexander had publicly admitted that he trusted me. No one had ever trusted me before except Zoe. She was the only one who believed I was telling the truth when everyone else didn't.The security guards nodded, and the CCTV footage was retrieved and played. To everyone's surprise, Liana was seen putting the necklace in my bag before excusing herself.She had done it while Alexander and I weren't looking. We never would have thought she would pull a trick like this.The people gasped in shock as they cursed her for trying to frame me."A young girl at this age goes around framing people and causing trouble. How could she raise a child?" an elderly woman among the crowd said with a huff."She's not fit to have one!" another angry person cursed loudly.Then Alexander glared at her furiously. I have never seen him this angry before."Don't ever involve my employee in your games again!" he fired at her in a very cold voice. His cold v

Nina's POVThe laughter and discussion died down immediately when Liana showed up.What was she doing here? Could it be that she was invited by Alexander?My face twisted. Why did she have to show up now? Alexander looked surprised to see her too.Maybe he wasn't the one who invited her.She casually took a seat and sat down with us without minding whether her presence was needed.What a nerve.She was all smiles as she placed her bag and phone on the table. The waitress came around and took her order."What are you doing here?" Alexander asked with his usual coldness.She smiled and gently placed her hand on Alexander's lap. My heart twisted, and my blood boiled with anger. But I managed to calm myself."I happened to be here for business. I didn't expect to see you guys here." She answered immediately.Alexander quickly removed her hand from himself and dusted that part of his trousers. My nerves calmed at the sight of him dusting the spot where Liana had touched him.She pretended

Nina's POVThe next day I gathered the documents we worked on last night. Today, we will be meeting with the CEO of Sterling Technologies.I had gone through the documents several times to make sure they were complete and presentable.That morning, I prepared breakfast while Alexander was still lying on the couch. It seemed like he hadn't slept well the previous night.After preparing breakfast, which consisted of tea and toast, I set everything on the center table and walked over to tell him that breakfast was ready.This was the first time I had slept under the same roof as Alexander, and I didn't know if he got angry when someone woke him.I knelt beside the couch to wake him, but I couldn't stop admiring his handsome face. I used to think Nolan was the hottest man I'd ever seen, but Alexander was far more handsome than him.I stared at his face, unable to stop admiring him. Then something occurred to me. Alexander somehow resembled my kids.I had never thought about it before, b

**Nina**“You really did something crazy,” Zoe laughed.We were talking about last night, and honestly, I expected her to be angry. But she wasn’t. Instead, she was doing everything possible to make me feel better.“Sleeping with a stranger is better than wasting years with Nolan,” she said, her ex

**Nina**“Another one, please.”The bartender refilled my glass with whiskey, and I swallowed it in one gulp. I winced as the alcohol burned down my throat and settled heavily in my stomach.I slammed the empty glass onto the counter.“One more!”The bar was loud, filled with neon lights, heavy bas

NinaThe smell of coffee and butter pulled me out of sleep before the light did. I cracked one eye open.Zoe stood at the edge of the bed with a tray balanced on one hand, dressed like she was about to close a deal. Her blazer was perfectly fitted, her dark hair pulled back neatly, and her heels

NinaI was watching a movie when Zoe’s call flashed across my screen. I hate it when I'm disturbed while watching a movie, especially my favorite, MY DEMON. This is a popular Korean movie that just came out, and I'm literally glued to my phone.A second later, she called again.And again.With an i
