Elena Beaumont’s POV

“IVF can also fail. I can’t give you a 100% guarantee, even if we’re using the best technology ever. While we are trying to find the best method for you both, why don’t you talk it over together? As husband and wife, I mean.” Friedrich removed his glasses, and gave his old friend a serious look.

Of course, Jake could only lower his gaze. His brown eyes found the white marble floor so fascinating as though it held more interest than the doctor’s suggestions.

“Alright.” Fried

    Elena Beaumont’s POV“It was out of my league, but Jake Harold is—”“Are you done with everything here?”Friedrich almost dropped his case of white bubble gum the second Jake burst into the fertility room out of nowhere.“Ahem!” The young doctor quickly pretended to be busy with his white coat. “Yeah, sure. We’re all done,” Friedrich said, clearing his throat to sound calm after almost being caught red-handed talking to me in secret.“So, have you made a decision?” Friedrich stepped toward him. “We can only proceed with IVF once both partners sign off. Would you like me to give you two some privacy? Or—”“No. Just do it,” Jake snapped, cutting Friedrich off before he could even finish explaining.Those grey, slumped eyes met mine with a very stiff, unpleasant glance.Surrounded by another team of doctors, Doctor Friedrich occupied himself with the preparation of the IVF paperwork.Standing behind the other doctors, I could tell Friedrich was trying his best to steal a moment—or at lea

His brown eyes found the white marble floor so fascinating as though it held more interest than the doctor’s suggestions.“Alright.” Friedrich gave a sudden nod, before turning a warm smile toward me. “How about we start with a quick check-up, hm? Are you alright with that, ma’am?”I looked over at Jake, roaming through his eyes for reassurance. Once that man gave me a slight nod, I turned back and nodded to Doctor Friedrich.“Do you have any period problems, Ma’am? Any abdominal pain, perhaps?” Friedrich helped me lie on the hospital bed. He examined my belly using an ultrasound tool, after applying a cold gel all over my lower a

  • He Cheated on Me, His Uncle Wants a Baby   47 - Child as a 'Token'

    Elena Beaumont’s POV“Oh! Come in! I’ve been waiting for you!”A sweet, calming fragrance greeted my nose the moment the young doctor—with tousled blond hair, soft grey eyes, and a white coat—stepped forward to the door and offered us a handshake.“I almost dropped my phone when you told me you were already married!” Doctor Friedrich laughed lightly. Jake’s expression suddenly softened into a rare, warm smile as the two men exchanged a warm hug.I watched them silently for a brief moment. Seeing Jake smile with such warmth was so rare that I knew at first glance—they must have been close friends for years. College friends? Maybe?Does he also know about this woman named Jasmine?“Well, then. When a dear old friend who didn’t even invite me to his own wedding suddenly books an appointment with an OB-GYN, there’s really only one reason why! Okay, let’s hear it from you first, old friend,” Friedrich teased, giving me a wink. He gestured warmly toward the chairs across from his desk.“My

    Elena Beaumont’s POVAndreas raised an eyebrow at us. As that man with glasses flipped the documents, his green eyes occasionally glanced at our seats.“We have a business trip tomorrow,” he said, unlocking his tablet. “The assistant from Castrelle Company suggested dinner before the meeting. What time works best for you, Sir? Your schedule is completely open from afternoon through the evening.”“Cancel it,” he snapped, while the knife sliced into his steak.His assistant froze, blinking in confusion at the screen. “Pardon me?” he stammered, clearly startled by his boss’s sudden cut-off. “Could you clarify, Sir? When you say ‘cancel it,’ do you mean just the dinner, or the meeting as well?”“Both,” he shot back without hesitation. “I have an important engagement with Elena tomorrow. Clear my schedule until I’m free.”Andreas glanced at me through his thick glasses as he tried to read my mind telepathically, ‘Is he being serious? Or, is this just his way to torture me?’ He seemed to be

  • He Cheated on Me, His Uncle Wants a Baby   45 - Sudden Touch

    Elena Beaumont’s POVA wave of sudden heat surged up my face and pooled right into my ears. His hand—possessively clamped over my belly, reaching to the curve of my abdomen. Without a word, he drew my back softly against his chest, until there was no space left between us. Locking our chests together.My heart pumped against my ribs so hard I thought it would burst right away. I swallowed hard, a rock forming in my throat. Jake was acting completely out of character.The strict condition he had set for me still echoed loud and clear in my mind: ‘I don’t want any physical relationship in this marriage.’ It felt as fresh as yesterday morning.Yet, the heat of his touch was far too real for me to think that I was hallucinating.“Bring your assistant here. I have something for your wife.”“Alright, grandfather,” he replied, and with that, the line went off.He placed the phone on the table. My limbs were turning numb when his arm still locked me tight.Then, Jake let out a low chuckle.“W

    Elena Beaumont’s POV“…”I darted my stiff eyes to the flower vase next to me.Godrick was still talking on the phone, yet I couldn't help but feel uneasy because Jake kept staring at me. I hoped this was only my anxiety kicking in—but ever since Godrick had called me to his mansion that day, Jake seemed very interested in me.“Elena.”I jumped. Too caught up in my own mind, I had forgotten that the old man was still connected to me.“Yes, Grandfather?” I said, masking the tremor in my voice.“…”“Do you want this old man to scold your husband?”“E-eh?” My breath caught in that instant.“W-What do you mean, Grandfather?” I tried my best not to show my shock.“Your husband. Should I have a word with him?” he continued, sighing heavily over the line. “I’m his grandfather. I raised him like my own son. I know better than anyone how stubborn my grandson is. It must be hard for a young lady like you to deal with and live under the same roof with a stubborn man like him.”“I just want you t
