That night, the dining room of Andriano's mansion was filled with sparkling crystal chandeliers, creating a warm and luxurious atmosphere in one corner of the mansion. The long dining table was spread with a crisp white tablecloth and tableware neatly arranged, waiting to be used for the dinner that was about to take place.Sharlynn, in her elegant dress, stepped gently into the dining room, a sweet smile gracing her face. “Good evening, Grandpa,” greeted Sharlynn in a soft, warm voice. She gracefully pulled out a chair and sat down, her demeanor full of elegance and politeness.Grandpa Andriano, who was already seated at the end of the table, returned the greeting with a heavy but loving voice. “Good evening, Sharlynn,” he said. His sharp eyes momentarily searched for someone else behind Sharlynn's figure. “Where is Sevariano? I heard his voice on the way to the dining room?”Sharlynn, who was already quite familiar with her grandfather's concern for Richie, gave a wry smile. Her
“Ma'am, get in,” said Willy who was a little worried because there was still a row of cars waiting behind him.Adine gasped slightly as she saw Willy in the car. It didn't take long, she rushed into the car.After entering the car, Adine reached back and ruffled the contents of her bag. While remembering the last time she put her pills.“Where?” muttered Adine softly, of course because she didn't want Willy to hear it.Adine exhaled roughly, as she stopped rummaging through her bag.'What if I get pregnant?' Adine thought as she bit her lower lip.'If I buy anti-pregnancy pills and take them later, it's the same as killing something that started to grow' Adine thought back.Willy occasionally glanced at Adine who had a worried look on her face. Occasionally, Adine even looked away and stared at the road through the side mirror.“Excuse me, ma'am, do you need anything?” asked Willy which made Adine blink her eyes, busy with her own thoughts making her forget about the Baron's existence
There were sturdy footsteps that sounded more like clattering. Searching every corner, she even looked anxious as she could not find the person she was worried about.“Why don't I just go to the kitchen!” Dominik tapped his forehead, feeling like a fool who lost a valuable item.Without thinking, he half ran to the kitchen.“Bambi eyes!” he shouted when he saw a woman sitting on her haunches picking up something.Dominik made a beeline for Adine, crouching down next to his wife.“I told you, if you want to eat we'll order!” Dominik's tone was slightly raised, half disappointed with Adine for not hearing him.“I want to cook for my husband, is that not okay?” Adine looked at Dominik with a frown, disappointed by the man's words that seemed to consider her a rebellious wife.“That's not it, bambi eyes, I see you look a little pale,” Dominik complained.“Huh? Bambi eyes?” asked Adine in astonishment.“You have beautiful round eyes, always sparkling,” replied Dominik in a tone that seemed
“Dominik! I was asking!” Adine looked annoyed as Dominik just smiled lightly while ruffling his hair.“I don't know where your anti-ham pills are,” Dominik finally replied, albeit falsely.“Maybe you ran out and forgot,” Dominik quipped again.“But I'm sure I still have my anti-pregnancy pills,” Adine said as she recalled them.“My safeguards are out, but I don't think there's any need to use them,” said Dominik, which made Adine's eyes round, looking more and more like the eyes of a bambi deer.“But...”“No buts! I think you'd like it better if I didn't wear a harness,” Dominik cut in with a mischievous look at his wife.Adine couldn't interrupt, her body felt weak. Dizziness, that was all she could feel right now.“Dominik, what if there is already something growing in my womb?” asked Adine with a pained face.Dominik looked at Adine with a warm smile. He could see how tense his wife's expression was.“Do you mind keeping my seed there?” asked Dominik, which immediately made Adine c
"I don't know, suddenly my head is spinning."Adine tightly gripped Dominik's hand as he tried to support her. He helped his wife to sit on the sofa."Sir, I will get the wind oil from Belle's place."Dominik nodded, and Arion quickly left his master's study."We need to go to the hospital," Dominik said while rubbing Adine's left hand."There's no need, it might just be exhaustion. It will pass," Adine replied while massaging her temples and closing her eyes."Exhausted? Exhausted because you have to attend to me in bed every night?" asked Dominik with a chuckle."Dominik! That's not funny!" Adine slapped Dominik's arm and glared at him angrily."I'm calling the doctor!" Dominik declared firmly."But I'm fine," Adine protested with a pleading look."No arguing!" Dominik stared at her sternly, stepped towards the desk, and grabbed his phone.Adine just watched him pace back and forth, trying to reach someone on the phone.A serious conversation unfolded between Dominik and the person
Adine was startled when she heard banging on the door. She was nervous and quickly put away all her test pack results. “Adine, are you okay inside?” Dominik's voice was getting louder. “If you don't answer me, I'll break down this bathroom door!” Adine hurriedly put her test pack into the pocket of her dress carefully so as not to be found by Dominik. The banging sound was getting louder, she was getting more nervous, “Dominik, be quiet! I'm fine!” she replied in the bathroom. But Dominik, a stocky man with short hair and eyes that always seemed to be looking for answers, was not satisfied. “If you don't answer me, I'll break down this bathroom door!” His threat grew more serious, his voice rising, sounding frustrated. With a pounding heart, Adine unlocked the door and opened it slightly so that only her head and some of her shoulders were visible. Through the crack in the door, she saw Dominik standing with both hands clenched at his sides, his face showing a mixture of wo
Upon arrival at the penthouse, Adine was pacing back and forth on the terrace. Right on the top floor of one of the high-rise buildings in the city of Jakarta. The weather that was not too hot blew a gentle breeze right in the woman's face. Her face looked confused, she didn't know how to tell Dominik that she was pregnant with his child. “I have to go,” she muttered. “He'll be furious if he finds out I'm carrying his flesh and blood.” Adine's tears suddenly fell unbidden, imagining if Dominik would force her to abort the seed that had grown in her womb. Adine shook her head vigorously trying to dismiss all her bad thoughts. “No! I must act immediately.” She ran to the small table there and grabbed her cell phone. Her hands were shaking as she scrolled through the phone. As the dial tone began to sound, Adine was filled with worry. Her only thought was to protect the baby in her womb. Three times the dial tone was heard, the voice of someone on the other side began to sound. [“M
Dominik hurriedly called Richie to pick her up, and also interrogated the man who had driven Adine back to the penthouse. “Ckck...where's Adine?” muttered Dominik who was sitting next to Richie. The man who was driving beside Dominik gave him a glance, revealing the panicked face of the young master. “Richie, why didn't Adine answer my call earlier. Are you sure you drove Adine to the apartment?” he asked the Richie beside him who was turning the wheel. “I dropped her off in front of the lobby and she walked quickly into the lobby,” Richie replied. Dominik who was listening breathed a sigh of relief, but the look of panic was still on his face.Richie remained focused on the road, but his answer clearly gave Dominik some peace of mind. “But I didn't see Madame go upstairs, young sir. I believe she went into the lobby, but after that I can't be sure,” Richie added, his voice sounding cautious.Dominik squeezed his cell phone, anxiety taking over his mind. “Try calling again. Maybe
