“Where are you two off to now? Last time you took him with you, I saw him leading some other woman to nowhere.”

Tim and Yuan both just laughed. Did they think I was joking?

“Eleanor was just too drunk that night, and we were only trying to help her. She’s just a friend, Love,” Yuan explained to me again.

I knew he was telling the truth, he knows I can’t stand liars, but I couldn’t help feeling annoyed. I wasn’t sure why. Probably because of the bad encounter I had with that woman from the start.

“Yeah, right,” I replied shortly.

“Don’t worry. I’ll just discuss something with him and bring him back right away. This is really important, Selina,” Tim said, and I couldn’t help but laugh.

I felt Yuan’s hand brushing my waist, so I glanced at him.

“I’m just kidding. I’ll stay right here at the table,” I told him.

He nodded and kissed me. “Don’t leave this spot. I’ll be right back,” he said seriously, a hint of worry in his voice.

I knew he was still affected by everything that had happened

    After our meeting, Yuan picked me up, inviting me out for a dinner date. I wasn’t sure what was on his mind, but I guessed he was still trying to make up for what happened earlier, even though I had already told him it was fine and hoped it wouldn’t happen again.As I walked outside the building, my phone beeped. I reached into my bag, expecting a text from Yuan, but it wasn’t.Unknown NumberCan we talk? Just for a moment, Selina. I’m at the coffee shop near your building.YvoEthan’s half-brother.My brow furrowed, and my heart started racing. I suddenly remembered how they had looked at my son that day, the questions they had asked, and the ones they never got an answer to.“Get him in the car, Yuan… please,” I whispered as we retrieved Slater.Yuan nodded and immediately scooped him up, pausing for a moment to glance at me before heading out. I struggled to catch my breath, my gaze fixed on them.The last time I saw her, I had been so vulnerable. Her face showed traces of age, yet

    I practically flew down the hall toward that damn mall. I tried to keep myself from overreacting, after all, they were inside, and CCTV cameras were everywhere. But my body betrayed me. My knees and hands were shaking the moment Yuan met me at the security office.“Did you find him? Where is he?” I asked instantly, feeling panic claw its way up my chest.“I’ve already requested a CCTV review. We’re waiting for someone to do the footage,” he said.I stared at him for a moment and cursed under my breath. My chest pounded as every worst-case scenario ran through my mind in fast-forward.“Let’s wait here for now,” Yuan suggested.“We can’t, Yuan! What if something happens to him? He doesn’t know this place! I know he’s scared right now, I can feel it. He’s scared! How did this even happen?” I hissed, my voice cracking as I collapsed into a chair.Yuan held my hand, but I kept rubbing it frantically with both of mine. My whole body was trembling. Breathing became shallow, erratic. Anxiety

    My smile widened as I looked at her. She was draped in jewelry, and her beauty was almost blinding.“Oh my God, I’m so sorry I didn’t recognize you. This is actually the first time I’ve seen you in person,” I said apologetically.She immediately shook her head and stepped a little closer to me.“Let’s just talk later,” she whispered before returning to her seat.I nodded and went back to mine as well. I caught the serious looks from the father and daughter, so I simply smiled at them. I then decided to approach Enrique, who stood up at the same time.“Nice to finally meet you, Mr. Lim. I’m glad you didn’t ditch me this time,” I greeted him jokingly.Our first scheduled meeting hadn’t pushed through because of an alleged emergency. I didn’t dwell on it, I’m not the type to chase people down anymore.“I’m very sorry about that, Miss Moretti. I’m glad I finally got to meet you. I’ve heard so many things about you, your mother used to talk about you all the time,” he said cheerfully, chuc

    There was nothing I could do as we drove toward the office. I wanted to focus on my meeting with the Lims, but my mind refused to cooperate especially when it came to my son’s safety. I mean, yes, I could easily deny that Slater was his child if anyone connected to him ever saw him. That would’ve been simple… if Slater didn’t look exactly like him.I felt Yuan squeeze my hand while we were on the road, so I turned to look at him. His eyes stayed on the street, serious, focused, yet there was unmistakable happiness written all over his face.“Don’t you trust me?” he asked suddenly.I was caught off guard by the question. I immediately clasped his hand with my other one, leaned closer, and kissed his cheek.“It’s not like that,” I said softly. “You know how much I trust you.”He tilted his head slightly to look at me, raised a brow, then smiled.“I wish I could take you with us too,” he said. “But you have an important meeting.”That only made the guilt sink in deeper. It felt like he’d

    The next day, we were both getting ready for Tim and Esther’s engagement party. Slater had stayed home yesterday because he wanted to spend more time with his grandparents, and I hadn’t objected.I kept my eyes on Yuan, who was currently adjusting his necktie in front of the mirror. I laughed when I noticed he was struggling a bit, so I walked over to help.“You can do everything else, but this? I can’t believe it,” I teased.I saw the corner of his lips twitch as he tried to hold back a grin.“Why aren’t you dressed yet?” he asked while I helped him straighten his tie.I looked up at him and caught a glimmer of joy in his eyes as he watched me. I bit my lower lip when I saw his smile widen, as if he was adoring me. His gaze had never changed, from the first time I saw him until now.“Do we really have to go? I mean… we could just stay here and—” I started, then stopped myself as I finished fixing his tie.I stepped back slightly to get a better look at him and frowned at the sight of
