CHAPTER 7

Amber Desiree’s POV

I fell silent.

Now that his first love is back… what happens next? Will they rekindle what they once had? Is that why Vivian sent food to his office—to win him back? I’m sure this isn’t the first time she’s tried to reach out to Lorenzo. And honestly, I think Lorenzo still has feelings for her too. After all, he still keeps their photo here in his office, even though he doesn’t even have a single photo of us displayed.

And as they say, love is sweeter the second time around.

How can I possibly compete with that? I’m just his wife on paper. Lorenzo doesn’t love me. The only thing I’m holding on to now… is the baby growing inside me.

But will that really be enough to stop him from going back to Vivian?

I glanced at Lorenzo, who was now busy with his laptop. He was wearing rimless glasses, his brows slightly furrowed as his fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard. He’s already undeniably good

    CHAPTER 9Amber Desiree’s POVI drove straight to my brother’s company. Once I arrived, I parked carefully and stepped out of the car. The sight of the familiar building greeted me, the bold letters Villarreal gleaming proudly at the top.I entered the lobby and headed straight to the elevator, pressing the button to the top floor where my brother’s office was located.

I smiled at her before walking toward my brother’s office.The moment I opened the door, my brother lifted his head from the documents he was reading. His usually serious expression softened instantly when his eyes met mine. He stood up from his chair without hesitation.“Bree,” he said softly, the same endearment he and our

    CHAPTER 6Amber Desiree’s POV“What the hell, Lorenzo?!”I stared at him in disbelief when I saw that he actually reported Byeon Woo-seok’s video. What on earth is his problem?!He ignored me completely. He just turned around and walked toward his desk like nothing happened.I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. Attention-seeker!I dropped back onto the couch and shifted my focus back to my phone. Not long after, there was a knock on the door and Ethan stepped inside.“Sir, someone sent a food delivery for you,” he said, showing a paper bag with the logo of a well-known michelin restaurant.The rich aroma of the food immediately spread across the room, and the second it reached my nose, I clamped my hand over it, fighting the urge to gag.What the hell is that smell?!I glanced toward Lorenzo and saw him staring at Ethan, brows furrowed.“Who sent it?”Ethan flicked his eyes toward me for a split second before answering.“From Vivian Lee, Sir.”The air shifted.I watched Lorenzo freeze in

    CHAPTER 5Amber Desiree’s POVEthan excused himself, leaving me alone with Lorenzo in his office.Lorenzo walked toward me, loosening his tie slightly. “What are you doing here?” he asked, his voice as cold as ever.My eyes followed his movements. “I brought your lunch,” I answered simply.He stopped by the couch across from mine. “You didn’t let me know you were coming.”I only shrugged, opening the paper bag and pulling out the Tupperware with his meal. He sat down, the glass table between us. When I glanced up, he was already watching me, his eyes unreadable and steady. I couldn’t help but feel self-conscious under his gaze. I wasn’t used to having his attention on me. Moments like this were rare. But in a strange way, I felt a small spark of relief because at least he didn’t tell me to leave.With a tiny smile, I opened the containers and placed it in front of him. “I cooked it myself. Special beef caldereta.”He spared me a brief glance but said nothing. He reached for the rice,

I was now on my way to Lorenzo’s company. It didn’t take long before I finally arrived.After carefully parking my car, I stepped out and looked up at the towering building before me. It stretched high into the sky—modern, sleek, and unmistakably luxurious. At the very top, bold silver letters spelled DEVLIN.Just from the exterior, you could already tell this was a company owned by old money and power.I walked inside and headed straight to the elevator. The guards and receptionists greeted me politely on my way in. They already knew who I was since I’d been here several times before.Once inside the elevator, I pressed the button for the top floor—the executive level where Lorenzo’s office was.When I arrived, the receptionist behind the front desk
