After Mom scheduled the meeting with me for tomorrow, she left with Peter. We decided to have dinner out because Slater requested chicken and pasta. He loves pasta while I absolutely hate it.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we ate quickly and went straight home afterward because I couldn’t shake the feeling that someone was watching me. I didn’t bother mentioning it to Yuan; I knew exactly how he’d react especially now that we were back in New York. Maybe I was just paranoid.

An hour later, we got home. I was still on the phone with Melody, who was already packing to return.

“So, how was your flight? Any news about your company?” she asked again, making me roll my eyes into the air.

“We landed safely, and the board meeting with the directors is already set for tomorrow. Do you know Eleanor?” I asked, motioning for Yuan and Slater to go inside the house first.

“Eleanor? That sounds familiar. Wait…” she said, and I could hear her asking someone in the background. She came back a few

    "He's the President and CEO. Why?" Yuan said, making me glance at him for a moment before turning my attention back to my phone to search the name."They’re our problem," I told him plainly, just as the search results appeared.The Lim IncorporatedEnrique Lim celebrated their 7th anniversary as one of the most successful companies in the Gun Industry."I honestly don’t know what they’re planning, but they want to take over Moretti Inc. My family has trusted them for years, and then suddenly news breaks that they’re plotting something against our company. I don’t know the whole story, but according to Lando, the Lims are involved in illegal activities," I murmured to Yuan, barely aware I was speaking while I kept scrolling through the articles.My mom seriously thinks I can handle something like this. Like what do I even know? I’m good with business, sure, but a gun industry? This is exactly why I never involved myself in the company before. Situations like this."Well, Tim told me th

    “Why don’t you try talking to him again without getting yourself worked up like this?” I told her, taking the tequila shot she handed me.“It’s like you don’t even know Dad,” she scoffed, rolling her eyes. “Anyway, how are you? How’s Slater? When are you two flying back to New York?” She switched the topic completely.My gaze drifted to Yuan, who had settled on my other side. He wrapped an arm around my waist, and I bit my lower lip when I felt his fingers lightly tracing the curve of it.“He’s fine. I don’t know if we’re actually going back… but I think I have to. Because of Moretti Incorporated. Mom wants me to take over her position as CEO since Lando won’t do it. I don’t really have a choice,” I admitted, frustration slipping into my voice while Yuan’s hand kept teasing my waist.He was toying with me, and I couldn’t help shifting in my seat because it tickled so much I could barely focus.“You should go home. There’s nothing wrong with giving your mom what she’s asking for. Besid

    A week earlier…“When was the last time you took your medicine?” He asked, frowning, and stepped closer to me.I felt his gentle hand on my waist as I returned the pitcher of water to the fridge.“Last week. Why?” I asked, curious.“You’ve been skipping?” He asked again, referring to my anti-depressant medication.Yes. Anti-depressants. It had been months since I gave birth when I had another episode. I didn’t understand what was happening to me at the time, but I was found by Lando, locked in the bathroom, letting my tears flow while my child cried in his room. They took me to the hospital, and my doctor scheduled me for therapy.“It’s fine, Yuan. I don’t take it often anymore,” I told him, noticing the worried expression on his face.“Are you sure? I mean… I don’t want anything to happen to you or Slater. You know that, Selina,” he said seriously, guiding me to the living room.Slater was still asleep. After his bath, he had read briefly before falling straight to sleep in his room.

    “What’s wrong? Does it look bad? Doesn’t it suit me?” I asked him, question after question.He kept a serious expression as he drove, finally glancing at me. “We should buy another dress.”My eyes widened at his words. “What? Why?”“I didn’t even notice that dress is too revealing. Damn it, Selina,” he said, clearly frustrated.“Stop, Yuan. This is fine, I’m with you,” I said with a smile, trying to lighten his mood.I teased him a few more times before he finally agreed not to buy a new dress. We drove straight to the venue. Tim greeted us immediately outside, accompanied by a woman.“Nice to see you again! You look really good, huh?” Tim said, giving me a quick hug.“You’re still a flirt,” I teased, laughing.“Wherever this one is, that’s where you’ll find him,” he joked to Yuan, who was standing beside me.“Shut up,” Yuan replied, and the two bumped fists.“I wouldn’t be surprised, he really looks like a dog,” Tim added, making both me and the woman laugh.“You’re not much better,”

    “Slater, come on. Mommy’s having a hard time,” I pleaded once more, my eyes scanning the house to find him.It was, once again, bath time, and he always acted like this whenever he knew what time it was. I can say he’s a clever child, because ever since he discovered his bath schedule, he would eagerly anticipate it and try to hide from me.I walked toward the kitchen, but he wasn’t there. I checked the living room, but still no sign of him, so I sank down into a chair again.“What do you want? We can go see Uncle Lando,” I coaxed, but I received no reply.I rubbed my temples, patience slowly wearing thin. I bit my lower lip and thought up some tricks, hoping it would make him appear.“Fine. I guess Mommy can’t love a naughty boy anymore.”“No!”I quickly turned toward the back of the stairs when suddenly he appeared from there. I laughed aloud as I saw him pouting while running toward me.“No! Mommy loves me, Mommy loves me,” he repeated, planting kisses on my cheeks and lips again a
