Karina and Viggo, who had just exited the examination room, were immediately approached by Selena and Zayn. Selena seemed to be inspecting Viggo's appearance from head to toe, noticing his neat and tidy appearance. Especially with the Ralex watch wrapped around his wrist, Selena could already tell that Viggo was not just any man."Who are you?" Zayn asked Viggo, appearing ready to strike Viggo who had simply entered the examination room."I'm Viggo, I am the..." Viggo began introducing himself before Karina quickly grabbed his hand. "Excuse me. You guys go home first. There's something I need to discuss with this person." Karina said, pulling Viggo along with her.Viggo followed Karina's pull without resistance, while Selena and Zayn looked puzzled, observing Karina's strange behavior."What's wrong with her?" Zayn asked, still watching Karina's departure, then turning his gaze to Selena standing beside him.Selena shrugged her shoulders, indicating that she also didn't have an answer
Throughout the journey back home, Karina leaned against the door of the taxi she was riding in, staring out at the street. Since her encounter with Viggo a while ago, her mind felt empty, and she couldn't even think about anything. Her only desire at the moment was to go home and rest without thinking about anything else. As for her meeting with Viggo at the office, that was a matter for later. For Karina, the important thing was to get through the present moment."I don't have to marry him, right? I didn't ask for any responsibility. I can take care of my child myself." Karina murmured to herself while still staring at the street.The taxi Karina was in finally entered the residential area where Karina lived and stopped right in front of her house. After paying in cash, Karina got out of the taxi and entered her house.Before entering, Karina took a deep breath because she was sure that Zayn and Selena were inside her house. Especially with Zayn's car still parked in front of her hou
A pair of long legs in black pants and matching shoes were seen stepping out of a black 911 Targa 4S car that had just stopped in front of a 50-story apartment building in the city center. As the man straightened his suit jacket upon exiting the car, another man with gray hair ran towards him."Welcome back, Mr. Viggo!" greeted Arlo with an expressionless face.Viggo didn't respond or meet Arlo's gaze. He simply entered the apartment building without acknowledging him.Meanwhile, Arlo handed the car keys, which Viggo had just driven, to one of the guards at the entrance to have the car moved to the VVIP parking area. After handing over the keys, Arlo quickly followed Viggo into the special elevator for VVIP residents."It seems your pace has slowed down. Is it because you haven't been touched by the light of the full moon for a long time?" taunted Viggo just as the elevator doors were about to close, with Arlo entering and pressing the button for the 50th floor."I will exercise more
Karina's pregnancy reached its two-month mark today. Although her belly didn't show any signs of bulging, she had come to accept her pregnancy more fully.Karina continued to work as usual, and her colleagues at the office, including Sophia, her secretary in the division, were unaware of her pregnancy. No one at Deverell Apparel knew that Karina was carrying Viggo's child.Today, Karina, Viggo, and Sophia, as representatives of the General Division, attended a meeting with the company's Director to develop a new summer collection in collaboration with a renowned artist. The General Division would work together with other divisions such as Marketing, Design, and Production.The General Division representatives arrived at the meeting room earliest, followed by the other divisions one by one until their Director finally appeared. "I apologize for being stuck in traffic," said Nolan Drake, the Director of Deverell Apparel, as he took his seat.The meeting finally began, with the design te
Karina entered Director Nolan's office after knocking on the door. She entered hesitantly as it was her first time entering the Director's office. Usually, Nolan would call her and have casual conversations in the manager's office or meeting room."Excuse me, Sir." Karina said, poking her head through the newly opened door.Nolan, who was sitting in his desk chair and looking out at the view outside the building, immediately turned his chair around to face Karina. Nolan's face lit up with a smile, and he stood up from his seat."Come in, Karina. Just come in." Nolan said, inviting Karina into his office.Karina entered and sat down on the sofa in Nolan's office. He also took a seat there and continued smiling at Karina."What can I help you with, Sir?" Karina asked."Well, Karina... I'll get straight to the point." Nolan began, leaning back on the sofa he was sitting on, while Karina continued to look at the Director, curious about the conversation that led him to call her into his of
Karina's moving preparations are nearly 100% complete. All of her belongings have been transferred into sealed boxes and neatly arranged. Because Karina is pregnant, Zayn is concerned about her getting tired. He even dedicated a full day to help her move into the new apartment.Zayn carried the sealed boxes one by one to the car, while Karina watched and checked off her boxes to ensure everything was organized and nothing was left behind."Put this one on top, it contains my room decorations like bedside lamps and other fragile items." Karina said when she noticed Zayn carrying a box with delicate items in his hands."Alright." Zayn replied before leaving the house with the box in his hands.Selena, who had been leaning against the wall with her arms folded, approached Karina and glanced at her empty room. Only the bed, study desk, and wardrobe remained, all of which were now empty."I guess I'll be lonely from now on." Selena murmured, looking at Karina.Karina turned to Selena, appr
Karina, Zayn, and Selena finally arrived at the basement parking area of Prime Plaza Apartments, which Karina would soon occupy today. Zayn unloaded all the boxes from the trunk to make it easier for him to carry the items.Karina wanted to help Zayn carry them, but he immediately brushed her aside, saying, "No need. Let me do it. I can make several trips. You go ahead to your apartment," said Zayn."I can lift them." Karina replied."Karina, you're pregnant, and still in the first trimester. It's risky for you to carry heavy things and get exhausted. Please, don't be selfish. What's inside your body is not just you anymore, but another life." Selena responded.Finally, Karina gave in to Selena's words and no longer intended to help Zayn. "Okay," Karina replied weakly.Karina had a tendency to help others. She often felt uneasy when others helped her, especially when she couldn't help at all, like now. Sometimes that made Karina feel guilty.Fortunately, since they were now in the apa
On the first Sunday in the luxurious apartment, adorned with white marble floors and matching walls, Karina felt even more excited about her day. The 165 cm tall woman enthusiastically tied her hair back and put on a pink jacket, getting ready to go for a workout."It feels wonderful to live here. It's just that I miss Selena at the moment." Karina murmured as she zipped up her jacket and left the mirror that had been her companion while getting ready for her morning exercise on Sunday.Karina quickly took out her trusty white sports shoes and hurried towards the exit door. Before leaving, she glanced around, exploring every corner of her apartment."I think I need to buy an air freshener later from the mini-market in the main lobby." Karina muttered, finally stepping out of her apartment and heading straight to the jogging track on the 5th floor of Prime Plaza Apartment building.On the 5th floor, all the sports facilities, from the jogging track and swimming pool to the sauna, jacuz
