There was a new light in her, as though a dream she had kept buried for years was finally within reach.
"I'll only be living there for three months... I think?" she added, sounding uncertain yet hopeful at the same time.
Lestari fell silent.
Her lips parted as if she wanted to say something, but no words came out.

LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 258. You Matter More
Aurelia woke as sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains of their bedroom.The cool morning air felt refreshing, but her head was still a little heavy.She was about to close her eyes again when her gaze landed on the phone resting on the nightstand.Gian's phone.Her thoughts immediately drifted back to the night before.The unexpected call.The way his expression had changed.And his brief response, It's nothing important, which had only made her curiosity grow.She tried to push the thought away.Then the phone vibrated.The screen lit up with a series of new notifications, and something tugged at her chest.Almost instinctively, she reached for it.Aurelia glanced toward the bathroom door.It was still closed.The faint sound of running water told her Gian was still showering.She stared at the screen for a moment, hesitating.But her fingers moved before
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 257. I'm Just Afraid of Losing You
The sharp scent of antiseptic filled the room as Aurelia slowly opened her eyes.The bright white lights overhead blurred her vision for a moment. It took several seconds before she realized she was no longer in the car.She was in a hospital.The sky outside the window was gray. She couldn't tell whether it was still dawn or already morning.All she knew was the dull ache in her lower abdomen and the soft footsteps approaching her bed."Sweetheart?"The familiar voice made her turn her head.Gian stood beside the bed, looking exhausted despite his neat appearance. His eyes were swollen from lack of sleep, yet he forced a reassuring smile."How..." Aurelia whispered hoarsely. "The baby?"Gian lowered his head and took her hand in his.He pressed a long kiss to the back of it, as though releasing the crushing weight he'd carried all night."Thank God," he said softly. "You and our little one are both okay. T
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 256. You Have to Stay Strong
The night felt even darker as Gian carried Aurelia out of their bedroom.She felt so light in his arms.Too light.And she was cold.Far too cold.Her breathing came in shallow, uneven gasps. Her eyes were half open, struggling to stay focused."Gian..." she whispered, so softly he almost didn't hear it."Shh... I'm here, sweetheart. Just hang on, okay? We're going to the hospital," Gian said, forcing himself to sound calm even as his heart pounded wildly.He hurried toward the front door with long strides, holding her tightly to keep her from being jostled. His car keys jingled loudly in the stillness of the night.Seconds later, the engine roared to life, and he sped out of the driveway."Sir...""Open the gate! Now!" Gian shouted before the security guard could finish speaking. There wasn't time for explanations.The guard immediately nodded and rushed to unlock the towering gate, his face paling
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 255. Blood
The night air still carried the lingering fragrance of white lilies and roses from the engagement celebration earlier that day. Their house felt unusually quiet with Mrs. Lestari and Mr. Mahesa away on an overseas trip.Aurelia sat at the edge of the bed, staring at her reflection in the mirror. She looked exhausted, not only from standing for hours but also from carrying the weight of so many emotions throughout the day.Gian stepped into the room, rolling up the sleeves of his dress shirt. He had just finished putting away the suit he had worn to Devina's engagement."Are you sure you're okay?" he asked gently as he walked over and sat beside her. "You've been awfully quiet."Aurelia offered him a faint smile, trying to hide the worry she could clearly see in his eyes."I'm just tired. I guess standing for so long wore me out. Devina looked so happy today.""And you looked absolutely beautiful," Gian replied without hesitation. "I almost f
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 254. Devina's Engagement Day
Soft music drifted through the grand ballroom, where white roses and crystal chandeliers filled the space with elegance. Gold and cream accents gave the venue a warm, luxurious glow. Everyone was smiling, laughing, and raising their glasses in celebration.But beneath all those cheerful faces, Aurelia knew not every smile was sincere.She sat on the right side of the room in a simple light blue gown, her hair styled in a half-updo. From across the ballroom, she caught a few female relatives stealing glances her way, whispering among themselves. She had known exactly what they would be talking about ever since that nosy cousin had sent her a private message earlier that morning.[Hang in there, Lia. You're definitely going to be the topic of conversation at Devina's engagement party.]Aurelia had never replied.But after reading those words, something inside her had shifted. The hands that had been carefully arranging the gifts turned cold,
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 253. Aurelia's Anxiety
“Hey.”Gian’s voice was calm, but clear enough to pull Aurelia out of her thoughts.She had been sitting against the headboard, staring blankly at the bedside lamp. She let out a long sigh instead of answering. Her shoulders rose and fell slowly as if she were carefully choosing her words. Finally, she gave a small nod without looking at him.“I've been trying not to think about it, but... it's hard, Gian,” she whispered. “Their words keep replaying in my head. I've been thinking about them since this afternoon, and now I've got a headache.”“The family group chat?” Gian guessed without hesitation.Aurelia turned to him, her eyes widening in surprise.“You know?”A faint smile touched Gian's lips. His gaze was gentle, yet sharp enough to read every emotion she tried to hide.“I didn't even have to read the messages,” he said softly. “Your face g
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 3. Mother-in-Law’s Greeting
Gian didn’t answer. Only a long, heavy silence filled the room, swallowing whatever courage Aurelia had left. She shut her eyes, desperately hoping for an explanation—anything. But all she heard was the faint rustle of fabric as Gian shifted on the sofa.Minutes passed before a voice finally broke
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 6. A Condition
Gian moved toward Aurelia slowly, almost soundless, closing the small distance between them. His warm breath brushed her face, and it felt like the room itself was shrinking around them.Aurelia swallowed hard. Her body went stiff, her instincts firing off warnings.“What do you want me to do?” she
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 2. The Beginning of Disaster
Aurelia didn’t sleep a single second. Her eyes stayed fixed on the ceiling, the cracks forming strange shapes, like a spiderweb slowly tightening around her. She felt trapped, and today that web was pulling her straight into the center of her ruin.Devina’s last words echoed in her skull like a cur
LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN 1. A Sacrifice
“You’re going to take your sister’s place and marry Mr. Gian.”The words fell from her father’s mouth with a coldness that sliced straight through her bones. As if he were asking her to run to the corner store for salt, not telling her to hand over her entire life to a man she’d never even met.Aur
