Love Redux: Fated to the Handsome Doctor

Olivia's sudden appearance after the confrontation was the greatest humiliation for her."That woman! How dare she!" Lara collapsed, feeling her world shake after the series of events she had just experienced. Suddenly, her stomach hurt, her muscles tensed again. Lara had just promised the doctor to take good care of her almost 6-month pregnancy after nearly having a miscarriage previously.Seno hadn't come home for several days, continuously claiming to be working late. Now Lara knew why some properties were secretly in Seno's name. Did Seno buy an apartment or a house for Olivia? Just thinking about it made her head hurt. How dare they play with fire behind her back!"Mrs. Lara!" called Bi Yani, Lara could hear her voice faintly. But she was still struggling to breathe.Seno's drastic increase in wealth prevented her from interrogating him like she did at the beginning of their marriage. That man had changed.Seno, who used to be sweet and caring, had now become an irritable man. Now

Meanwhile, in the operating room, Lara was fighting for her life. Unbeknownst to her, the doctor performing the surgery was an old friend she never wanted to meet again.Andre.Doctor Andre.The doctor also never imagined that the patient on the operating table was Lara—the girl he had been searching for all these years."Doctor, I hope... my baby will be okay," Lara said with a trembling voice. She didn't even recognize Andre, leaving the doctor stunned. What had happened to her? And... did she just mention a baby? Was Lara married?"Doctor!""Ah!"For a moment, Andre was frozen, unable to move. Childhood memories of Lara Selene, his long-lost friend, flooded his mind. How could they meet again in such a tragic situation?The nurse provided Lara with additional oxygen, while the surgical assistant continued operating the suction. They worked swiftly as Andre carefully continued stitching."The fetal heartbeat is stabilizing," the surgical assistant said with relief."Good!"Andre pres

After the long surgery, the line between reality and fantasy became blurred for Lara. Reuniting with Olivia stirred deep-seated hatred, pushing her on a journey back to her college days, when they were still together.Nearly a dozen years earlier, Lara’s move to Triguna University in Jakarta marked a significant change after living with her aunt in Surabaya.Being orphaned since childhood made it difficult for Lara to adapt, her unique appearance attracting both admiration and bullying.Although considered beautiful, Lara saw herself as ordinary, her mixed heritage making her an outsider.The bullying escalated, leading to a traumatic incident that prompted her uncle to transfer her to a new school.***“Lara, let’s join the Campus Queen contest,” the class president invited back then.“Campus Queen?” Lara asked curiously. She had never heard of it before.“Yes, beautiful girls like you will compete to be the most beautiful student on campus,” explained the class president.“Um, no tha

Lara stared sharply at the doctor standing before her.A tall, handsome doctor with brown eyes typical of a mixed-race man. His wavy black hair was neatly combed, perfectly complementing the white coat that draped over his body.Andre.He was Lara's childhood friend who has now become her enemy.“Y—you?” Lara's anger suddenly flared—she felt as if she could tear the doctor apart right then and there.Memories of the past relationship between Dr. Andre and Lara suddenly resurfaced, now causing her pain.Andre and Lara were not always enemies, but a horrific incident left a mark on her mind. That incident turned them into sworn enemies until now. Lara even tried to cut off contact, though Andre and his brother often tried to find her, or so they said. Lara never confirmed that.Lara was a girl full of wounds from the past. She hadn’t fully experienced happiness, until one day, a fetus suddenly appeared in her womb. That fetus, Lara's unborn child, became her only strength. She would figh

Andre’s orders were immediately carried out by the nurse. The woman in a light blue uniform quickly felt Lara’s pulse and then measured her blood pressure.“Her blood pressure is normal, doctor,” the nurse said while jotting down the results on a clipboard. “But her pulse is weak and irregular.”Andre immediately began CPR—cardiopulmonary resuscitation. His hope was that Lara would start breathing normally again.“Lara, please,” Andre murmured as he placed his hands on Lara’s chest and began chest compressions at a rate of 100-120 compressions per minute. He also opened her airway and gave rescue breaths after every 30 chest compressions. Andre continued the CPR, hoping that Lara would regain consciousness.“How is she, Doctor?” the nurse asked with a worried expression.“Look!” After a few minutes of CPR, Lara’s fingers began to twitch. Shortly after, she slowly opened her eyes. Although she looked weak and confused, Lara started moving her fingers and opening her mouth.Lara whispere
