Lily's eyes fluttered open, and she was met with the sight of Ethan sitting in the chair beside her bed, his head resting on the edge of the mattress. He was asleep, his features softened in slumber. But Lily's gaze was cold, her heart heavy with resentment. She felt a wave of anger wash over her as she took in the sight of him.

"Why are you still here?" She spat, her voice venomous. "What do you want from me now? You've taken everything away from me."

Ethan's eyes snapped open, and he looked up at her with a mixture of concern and caution. "Lily, calm down. Your body still hasn't healed—"

But Lily wouldn't let him finish. "Shut up!" she cut him off, her voice rising. "Don't act like you care about me. You never did."

Ethan's hand reached out, as if to touch hers, but Lily jerked her hand away, her eyes flashing with anger. "Don't you dare touch me. You have no right. We're divorced now, and the one thing that was still mine, my baby... you took that away from me too."

    Lewis sat in the meeting room, his expression calm and collected as the project head, James Warner, and his team presented their findings. Lewis remained silent, not uttering a single word, his gaze fixed intently on the presentation. Oliver, who had worked with Lewis for years, noticed his boss's demeanor and felt a sense of unease. He knew that a silent Lewis was often a sign of an impending storm.As the presentation concluded, James smiled, expecting approval from his boss. Without any comments or questions, Lewis's silence seemed almost palpable. James glanced at his team, and they all looked relieved. Over the past three years, Lewis had become even more stringent and cold in his expectations.As Lewis stood up to leave, the room fell into an awkward silence. Everyone was confused, unsure of what to make of Lewis's reaction. Oliver hesitated for a moment before speaking up softly, "Sir, didn't you have any comments?"Lewis's expression remained unreadable as he turned to Oliver,

    The meeting commenced with a sense of anticipation and importance. The conference room was filled with key stakeholders from both Hamilton Corp. and Smith & Co. At the helm of Smith & Co. was Evelyn Smith, a sharp and astute CEO, whose father, Arthur Smith, had been a close friend of Edward's father. The familiarity between the two families was evident as Edward and Evelyn exchanged warm smiles, reminiscing about their school days.Lily, who had been preparing for this meeting for weeks, stood confidently at the presentation screen, ready to lead the discussion. Edward sat beside her, observing with a keen eye, his presence a testament to his role as her superior."Good morning, everyone," Lily began, her voice clear and professional. "Today, we'll be discussing the details of our proposed partnership and the specifics of the project. I'll walk you through the key points and highlights."Evelyn nodded, her eyes fixed on Lily's presentation. "Please proceed, Lily. We're eager to hear y

    Three years had passed, and Lauren, or Lorry as Lily affectionately called her, had grown into a precocious and endearing child. The kitchen, once a place of solitary contemplation for Lily, was now filled with laughter and the clatter of tiny utensils. On this particular morning, Lily stood by the stove, her eyes fixed on her little daughter, who sat on a miniature chair, looking like a tiny queen in her kingdom."Hey Lorry , what do you want for breakfast, sweetie?" Lily asked, her voice warm with affection. Lorry looked up at her mother with big, round eyes that sparkled with a maturity beyond her years. She pondered the question for a moment, her small hands clasped together in her lap."Whatever you like, Mommy," Lorry replied, her voice soft but firm. "Whatever you make, I like." Lily's heart swelled with love and a tinge of nostalgia as she heard the words. There was something about Lorry’s response that reminded her of Lewis, Lorry’s father. The way she phrased her words, th

    Standing in the doorway was the same stranger who had intervened in the altercation with Jackson at the restaurant. He smiled warmly, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "I've been trying to call you, but I guess you already left. You dropped your purse at the restaurant, so I thought I'd return it to you."Mia's eyes widened as she took in the familiar purse in his hand. "Oh, thank you so much!" she exclaimed, her voice a little breathless.Just then, her mother appeared behind her. "Mia, who's at the door?" she asked, and then her eyes landed on the stranger. "Oh, thank you so much for returning our daughter's purse. We really appreciate it."The stranger nodded graciously. "No problem at all. I'm Mike Nolan, by the way."Mia's mother smiled. "Thank you, Mike. I'm Karen, and this is my husband, John."Mike shook hands with John, who seemed to approve of him. "Thanks for stepping in back there," John said. "We owe you one."Mike waved it off. "No need to thank me. Just glad everything

    Edward leaned down to the baby's crib, his face inches from hers. He gently touched her soft cheeks, and the baby turned her head away, scrunching up her face. Richard watched the exchange and chuckled. "Looks like you're not her type, Edward."Edward stood up, a confident smile spreading across his face. "Impossible. Who wouldn't love a handsome guy like me? She's just a little confused, being new to the world and all. But mark my words, when she grows up, she'll be begging to go out with me."Richard raised an eyebrow, amused. "Begging to go out with you? I think she'll lose interest in boys altogether after seeing you."Edward shot Richard a mock-offended look, but before he could respond, Lily's voice drifted from the bed. "What are you two talking about? My daughter's love life, perhaps? I think I'll have to keep her away from both of you."Richard chuckled, and Edward rushed to Lily's side. "No, no, Lily, don't say that. We've gone through so much for her already. Besides, Richa

    As they helped Lily into the car, she winced in pain, her face contorted in discomfort. Edward quickly got into the driver's seat, while Richard took the passenger seat. Edward put the car in gear and hit the accelerator, racing towards the hospital.But as they hit the evening traffic, Edward's speed had to slow down. Lily's screams of pain grew louder, and Richard turned around to try and comfort her. "Hang in there, Lily. We're almost there," he said, his voice soothing.But Edward's navigation skills were questionable, and Richard soon realized they were going the wrong way. "Edward, what are you doing? This isn't the way to the hospital!" Richard exclaimed, frustration creeping into his voice."I thought this was the shortcut," Edward replied defensively, his eyes fixed on the road."Shortcut? We're going to be lucky if we make it to the hospital before the baby is born," Richard retorted, his tone rising.Lily's screams grew louder, and she gripped the seat tightly, her knuckles
