Mag-log inElena thought Jane would only accompany her in choosing her wedding dress. But it turned out she was also helping Elena check the reception hall, invitations, and other preparations. Elena truly felt greatly helped by her future mother-in-law's assistance. "Thank you, Ma. You've been helping me take care of everything," Elena said with a smile that hadn't faded since earlier. Now they were on their way home. Jane, sitting next to Elena, turned and smiled at her. "You're welcome. I hope your event goes smoothly until the vows and reception are over," Jane said. "I hope so." A mother's prayers are often the most effective. They soon arrived in front of the house where Aria and Jayden used to live. Jane was silent for a long time, staring at the house. "Have you lived here together?" Jane asked. "Yes. Since Aria moved in, Jayden and I have been living here," Elena replied. Jane simply nodded slowly. "Oh, I see." "Do you want to stop by, Ma?" Elena asked then. "No. Just rest. Yo
The gaze of the woman in the black dress that hugged her perfectly seemed so empty. She stared ahead, where the rows of wedding dresses hung neatly. Elena was supposed to be with Jayden today. Choosing a wedding dress, again. But he couldn't accompany her, claiming he had work in the Eligra area. He had to attend a property auction. Was that event more important than their wedding? Of course it was for Jayden. But Elena meant, couldn't he just prioritize her over his work for once? Especially since they were preparing for their wedding. Something they had always wanted so badly. Who knew? It was them or just Elena. The more Elena thought about it, the more she wanted to lash out. The woman was planning to leave. Why would she stay there anyway? Choosing a dress alone? That wouldn't be fun. "I shouldn't have come in the first place," Elena grumbled, rising from her seat. At the same time, a middle-aged woman passed through the boutique entrance. It was Jane, Jayden's mother. Elena
"Jayden!" Hans was about to get up but was stopped by Aria. The woman stood up from her seat. With tear-filled eyes, Aria glared at Jayden. "You still haven't changed, have you, Jayden? Always blaming others without looking in the mirror," Aria said, her jaw clenched. "What?" Of course, Jayden couldn't accept Aria's words. Was it because of her that Juan was in the hospital now? It was all Aria and her family's fault. Jayden had every right to be angry, right? "I'm his mother. I carried him for nine months. I gave birth to him and cared for him all this time..." Aria stepped closer. "Meanwhile, his father, who claims to love him so much, is having a crazy time with another woman." Aria laughed sarcastically. "Then are you right to judge me now? I'm earning money to support him because his father, who claims to love him so much, never gives a penny to his son." Jayden was utterly defeated, and he was instantly rendered speechless. Aria's words were like the sharpest blow that struc
Aria blinked several times, trying to adjust to the bright light that was penetrating her eyes. "Thank goodness you're awake, Aria," said someone beside Aria, sighing with relief. The woman's vision was still blurry, making it difficult to clearly see who it was. "Hans?" Aria whispered as her vision began to focus. "Yes, Aria. It's me," Hans said, gently holding Aria's hand. The man looked very worried. Aria immediately woke up, remembering the last incident before she fainted. She quickly gathered her wits. "Juan... where's Juan? I have to see Juan," Aria said with a panicked expression. Without saying a word, Hans helped Aria to Juan. The woman was shocked to see her little son lying unconscious in the ICU. Aria's body felt boneless, and she fell to the ground, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Ju---Juan... my son," Aria sobbed softly. Hans, who was beside the woman, couldn't hold back his tears, not only because of Juan's dire condition but also because he saw Aria so
Anne could only smile knowingly. She felt both pity and pride at the sight of Aria now. It was a pity, because Aria shouldn't be the one working so hard. But if not Aria, who else? The Kates family had only Aria as their successor. Proud of her daughter's strong determination. Rebuilding a bankrupt company was no easy feat. Aria had nearly given up on failure several times, but she kept trying tirelessly. And finally, Aria's hard work began to pay off. Some of the property in the Eligra area was now hers. Aria shouldn't have had to worry too much. She only needed to win tomorrow's auction, and her father's company would fall into her hands. But Aria knew it wouldn't be easy. Jayden Matthew, her ex-husband, was also participating in the auction. And Aria could guess Jayden knew he was her opponent. He wouldn't give up easily. Aria took a deep breath as she stared at the documents in front of her. Her mother had already left after giving Aria a cup of warm tea. Aria could only hope t
"But I still want to run my own company. I want to prove to them that my company can get back on its feet thanks to my hard work," Aria said firmly. Seeing Aria's serious expression actually made Hans laugh. She was so adorable, he couldn't help but ruffle Aria's hair, which was still damp from washing it earlier. "I'm happy to see you so excited, Aria," Hans chuckled. With a shy smile and a slight blush on her cheeks, Aria said, "This is all thanks to your help." "Okay. I can't wait to see the company return to its former glory. Because then I can quickly marry you." Such straightforward words came out of Hans's mouth. Aria could only widen her eyes in shock. Oh my, Hans. He's always like that when it comes to expressing his unchanging feelings for Aria. But what Aria said next surprised Hans as well. "Maybe it's time for me to open my heart to you," Aria said quietly. Not only Hans, Anne and Tara were also shocked and happy to hear this. Yes. It was indeed time for Aria to cr
The guests had arrived, and it was time for the event to begin. Jayden was called onto the stage to officially unveil the design ceremony for the luxury apartment building that will be built in downtown Alatha. Applause and praise poured out for Jayden. Elvis and Jane looked proudly at their son, a
A happy expression radiated clearly on Elena's beautiful face. Especially when she saw Aria walking over to Jayden and holding Baby Juan. The woman seemed to deliberately show off her affection for Jayden in front of the woman.Meanwhile, Aria herself was confused by the situation. didn't they just
The sun was already quite high overhead. A woman moaned softly on the white-domed bed. When she opened her eyes, Viona felt excruciating pain in her head and several parts of her body."Ahh!" she groaned, clutching her head, which felt like it was going to explode as she tried to get out of bed. He
The atmosphere that morning was so beautiful. Accompanied by a cup of warm tea and the blowing wind brings a cool feeling. Elena closed her eyes for a moment to enjoy the view of the small garden behind the house. "You don't want to go home?" Jayden asked after his hands were perfectly wrapped ar
