Aurelia froze.

Her heart seemed to stop the instant she saw someone she never expected to find at an event as prestigious as Melbourne Fashion.

Gian.

Her husband.

Standing right beside him was Devina, her older sister.

Aurelia's entire body went rigid. She couldn't hide the shock on her face. Seeing the two people closest to her in the same place, at the same time, made her head spin.

Why are they here?

The question tightened painfully around her chest.

Across the room, Gian was just as stunned

  • LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN   225. Why Him?

    “I’m not going!”Aurelia’s voice came out louder than she intended. She pulled her hands free from her husband’s grasp, her eyes flashing with warning.“Don’t force me to go anywhere with you right now. If you do, I won’t hesitate to file for divorce!”The words hung heavily in the air, striking Gian straight in the heart.He fell silent for a moment before clicking his tongue in frustration and running a hand through his messy hair.“You always use that word, Aurelia. Divorce. Divorce. Divorce. Like it’s the answer to every problem we have.”Aurelia wrapped her arms around herself, trying to steady the emotions trembling beneath her skin.“If you keep acting this possessive, maybe it really is the only answer.”Gian’s gaze sharpened before softening into something painfully disappointed.“Baskara has a project here for the ne

  • LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN   224. Right Now

    Morning sunlight filtered through the gap in the curtains of the luxury apartment they were staying in. The soft scent of clean sheets mixed with the warmth of the body still wrapped beside hers beneath the blanket. Aurelia stretched lazily, her eyelids still heavy. She had just started to get out of bed when a strong tug pulled her right back into a familiar, warm embrace."Gian," Aurelia protested sleepily, trying to pull away. It was useless. His arms had her completely trapped.His husky voice brushed against her ear, low and teasing. "I want more, baby."She froze for a brief second before feeling his lips press softly, yet insistently, against her shoulder."Gian... that's enough," she whined, burying her face in the pillow. He only chuckled, drawing her back into the intimacy she'd been trying so hard to escape.Minutes blurred into hours.By the time nearly two hours had passed, Aurelia lay sprawled across the bed, exhausted, her che

  • LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN   223. Such a Smooth Talker

    Aurelia could still feel the warmth of Gian's whisper against her ear.His words..."Don't turn me down tonight."They echoed relentlessly in her mind, sending heat rushing all the way to her ears.She lowered her head, pretending to adjust the strap of her bag, though the real reason was the frantic pounding of her heart."Why are you so quiet?" Gian asked again.His voice was calm.Dangerously calm.Aurelia let out a small huff and deliberately looked away."I don't even know how to respond."Her husband chuckled softly before taking her hand and lacing his fingers through hers."Then answer me with your actions tonight."Aurelia's head snapped toward him, her eyes widening."Gian!"Her voice came out half whisper, half protest.He remained completely unfazed.A faint smile played on his lips.The kind of smile that left Aurelia flustered and hopelessly e

  • LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN   222. Not Here

    The campus seminar room was still alive with the sound of laptop keyboards clicking, papers rustling, and quiet conversations among international students.Aurelia sat in one corner of the room, leaning slightly over her laptop. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she worked on the final report for her short course project, due the following week.Every so often, she let out a quiet sigh, tucked her shoulder-length hair behind her ear, and secured it with a hair clip to keep it from falling into her face.Her eyes remained focused, but the exhaustion was obvious.She had already attended two seminars and one workshop since morning, and now she still had to finish her group's report draft."How's it going?" asked Marie, her French teammate, her accent unmistakable."Almost done," Aurelia replied with a small smile before returning to her typing, ignoring the ache in her shoulders.Several students had already packed up. Some headed

    "Hey, Aurelia! Did you finish the draft for tomorrow's project?"A man's voice broke the peaceful silence of the park at sunset.Aurelia turned, slightly surprised, before smiling."Yes, Daniel. I've got most of it done. I just need to polish it up tonight.""Great. We'll go over it together before class tomorrow, right?" Daniel asked with an easy smile."Of course. Don't worry. Everything's under control."Sitting beside Aurelia, Gian watched the man with an icy stare.His eyes narrowed as he silently sized up the stranger who spoke to his wife so comfortably.His expression remained unreadable, but the fire burning behind his eyes was impossible to miss.Aurelia stood and took a small step closer to Daniel."Oh, Daniel, this is my husband, Gian."There was unmistakable pride in her voice.Daniel looked surprised for a second before politely extending his hand."Nice to meet you, Gian. I've h

  • LOVE BEYOND THE PAIN   220. Who Could That Be?

    Aurelia froze.The smile that had just bloomed across her face vanished the instant she recognized the man standing on the path. She slowly shook her head, unable to believe what she was seeing."G... Gian?" she whispered, as though even saying his name had become difficult.Her husband stood only a few steps away, tall and composed in a simple blue shirt. But there was something heavy in his eyes.He was supposed to be in Jakarta, thousands of miles away from Sydney.And yet, there he was.Gian didn't smile.His gaze remained fixed on her, sharp and searching, as though he were looking for answers to the confusion weighing on his heart.A moment later, he clicked his tongue softly.Then he spread his arms and said, "Aren't you going to hug me?"Aurelia froze all over again.Her whole body felt hot and cold at the same time.There was an emotional distance in his voice, as though what should have bee

    The Mahesa family home slowly returned to calm after the guests began leaving one by one. The remaining glasses and plates had already been cleared away by the household staff. Kirana, who was still in the living room, busied herself arranging the flower vases, a small satisfied smile playing on he

    Warm steam filled the bathroom. A thin layer of fog began forming on the large mirror above the sink. Morning sunlight filtered through the slatted window, casting soft reflections that shimmered across the white marble walls.Gian adjusted the faucet, making sure the water was warm enough

    Aurelia was still standing frozen behind Gian, trying to hide her face that now felt like it was burning. Her heart pounded harder than usual. Heat spread through her body, not from the air, but from the overwhelming embarrassment.Meanwhile, Gian stood in front of the projected screen dis

    “What did you just say?”Gian set his glass down on the kitchen counter with a quiet but unmistakable sound. He leaned back against the counter and looked straight at Aurelia.“I don’t even know what I’m supposed to call this relationship anymore.
