LOGINGeorgia Walker successfully gets married to Fred Seele, the man whom she's had a crush on. For so long, she's been filled with hope and anticipation for her married life. That is, until she overhears Fred's secretive conversation with his widowed sister-in-law, Helena Linden. "Fred, please give me a child." It's at that moment Georgia's tranquil life is shattered. Only then does she realize that her marriage, which she's been painstakingly maintaining, is nothing but a well-scripted drama. Fred's heart already belongs to Helena. Now, Helena greedily yearns for everything Georgia has right now, be it her family, her achievements, or even her future with Fred. Georgia doesn't break down or throw a tantrum at all. She just retracts all of her love and care for Fred quietly and clears the brain-addling fog known as love from her mind. She wastes no time in submitting her resignation letter and a divorce agreement. In fact, she's ready to whisk her child, Sophie Seele, far away from their biased husband-slash-father. Later on, Georgia shifts her focus to her career. At the same time, her admirers begin growing exponentially. A handsome diplomat, a devoted vice hospital dean, and Georgia's biggest fan continue to safeguard her from life's dangers and challenges. That's when Fred finally realizes how much he's been neglecting Georgia. The sight of the divorce agreement acts like a wake-up call to him. Finally, he realizes that Georgia, the woman who has loved him deeply for so long, is already bent on divorcing him as soon as his own scales start tipping in Helena's favor. When Georgia finds herself in a situation where an admirer has already sunk down on one knee and proposed to her, Fred pulls her into his arms with red-rimmed eyes. "I haven't even signed the divorce agreement yet! Are you trying to commit bigamy, Georgia?"
View MoreHaving children was a major life decision. If a couple had no plans in that regard, no amount of urging from their family would make a difference.Olive looked at Georgia. Seeing her calm expression, she smiled and asked Fred, "Fred, what about you and Gia? What are your plans?"Fred flashed a pleasant smile and turned to Georgia. "I'll go along with Georgia's decision."So Olive said to Georgia, "Well, Gia, Soph is turning five soon. Do you want to have another child?"Georgia's fork hovered in the air as she looked at Oliva and said, "Mom, Soph is the only child I'll have. I won't have any more children."The entire table fell silent, and everyone instinctively looked toward Fred. Just moments ago, he had said he would follow Georgia's lead. Now that she'd stated her position that Sophie would be her only child, would he also go along with that?Fred's eyes darkened slightly as he studied Georgia's face. She lifted her head and met his scrutinizing gaze. "You don't need to go a
Because Fred was coming over, Garrett and his wife also made a point of coming for lunch. Garrett now ran a company related to pharmaceuticals as well, though his projects were tied to government work.Backed by a state-owned enterprise, he focused on bulk procurement of pharmaceutical materials. But in recent years, projects in that area had declined significantly, and he was all too familiar with the difficulties of running a business.Meanwhile, despite being the same age as him, Fred was running a massive business empire. Considering him a godlike figure in business, Garrett wasn't going to miss a chance to seek advice from him.Of course, Fred could see that Garrett was trying to learn from him.Since Garrett and Evelyn had shown up right in time for lunch, Georgia helped Olive bring the food to the table.Garrett sat on the couch with Evelyn beside him, and the conversation with Fred naturally drifted into a discussion about current affairs, the economy, and industry trends.
"Fine. We'll have a meal with my family tomorrow." Georgia agreed to Fred's arrangement."We'll head over to the house together tomorrow morning," Fred said.He looked down at her, as if he still had more to say, but she'd swiftly gathered her documents, stood up, and walked out.For a few seconds, Fred stood frozen next to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room. Then, he stuck his hands in his pockets and left with the senior executives of Seele Group.The next morning, the weather was gloomier and colder than before. Fred had Dwayne chauffeur them around in an SUV, and the bodyguards followed in a separate car that was packed with gifts.During the car ride, Fred played with Sophie. She chattered happily the entire time, seemingly tireless, while Georgia sat quietly in the separated solo seat, listening to the two of them.Over at the residential neighborhood where the Walkers lived, the overall peaceful calmness was occasionally stirred by the cheerful laughter of
One glance was all it took for Georgia to recognize the man in the photo. It was Fred.The second photo showed a dining room. The table was set for two. A bouquet, including some roses, was placed on top of the ivory tablecloth. There was also a bottle of red wine and a pair of stemmed glasses, and beside them were three stacked gift boxes.All in all, it felt like a set of warm, cozy photos taken in the home of an intimate couple. There was no location tag and no indication of who was in it. But Fred's silhouette and the bespoke outfit he wore were already enough to identify him.Georgia noticed the post had been up for nearly an hour. It had only two likes and comments—both from Helena's close friends. They made a show of talking it up, saying things like how great it was to have someone making supper for her, along with some suggestive remarks about how she was going to have a good time tonight.The fact that there were only two likes and comments after being up for an hour made
