Adela returned to her room and stared at the envelope in her hand for a long time. She was curious about its contents, but she couldn’t bring herself to open it. Something about it gave her an uneasy feeling. After a while, she sighed, deciding it was better to leave it for now. She slipped it into her drawer and shut it, trying to push the uncertainty out of her mind.

After a refreshing shower, Adela sat at her desk and began to paint. Each stroke of the brush brought her a small sense of joy;

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   448 We’ll Never Let Go

    Adela stayed in the hospital for two days. Once Layson wrapped up everything on his end, he took her and Ralph to the UK to visit Herbie.The doctor told them Herbie would be able to walk freely again in six months. She might even be able to learn dancing if she wanted—that news finally eased the weight Adela had carried on her heart for half a year.While in the UK that week, Adela got a message from Cici. She wrote that the Campbell Group’s stock had been tanking like crazy—it looked scary. She even asked if the economy was doing okay, saying maybe it wasn’t the best time to quit her job after all.Adela handed the message to Layson. His face stayed calm, unreadable.“That was me,” he said plainly. “But even with my resources, it wouldn’t crash that fast. Liam really went hard this time.”His eyes darkened. “I told him to wait, but turns out he’s even less patient than I am.”The Norman and Walton families had been gradually eating away at the Campbells' company.That realization su

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   447 How’s My Baby?

    Thank God for the car’s top-tier suspension—otherwise, Adela and the baby would’ve been seriously hurt.As Helen stabilized the car, the bodyguard in the front passenger seat flung the door open, face pale as a sheet. He scooped Ralph into his arms in a flash. “Miss, we need to get out. Now!”There was no time to hesitate. A car was tailing them, and up ahead, a massive truck was barreling straight toward them.If the bodyguard hadn’t been on high alert, it would’ve been too late already.Helen supported Adela while the bodyguard carried Ralph, sprinting toward an abandoned housing complex by the roadside. Adela rarely came this way.Today’s route hadn’t been planned in advance. Richard had instructed the team to stop by a temporary site to collect documents. Only someone close to Richard could’ve known this stop was added.Adela was nearly three months pregnant—there was no way she could keep running. Pain started to throb in her lower abdomen.Her face went ghostly pale, voice tremb

    Dr. Qi’s subtle shake of the head told Layson Norman everything he needed to know. He might not know every inch of Adela’s mind, but he understood her well enough.Since Richard was nearby, Dr. Qi didn’t get into medical jargon—instead, he started with small talk, easing into questions that could help him understand Adela’s mental state better.After a few moments, Dr. Qi cleared his throat and carefully said, “The nightmares she’s had and the fainting episode today—both were triggered by external stressors. She needs a calm, quiet recovery. No more emotional shocks.”Then he looked Layson directly in the eyes, voice steady and serious. “The fetus is already showing signs of instability. Another strong stimulus, and the risk of miscarriage becomes very real.”The silence in the hallway grew heavy. Layson’s fingers clenched around his cigarette box like he was resisting the urge to crush it in his hand.Dr. Qi gave him a light pat on the shoulder. “As long as she rests, she’ll get thro

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   445 Do You Feel Stressed Often?

    The sound of the mug shattering on the floor was what snapped the security guards out of their daze first. When they saw the fruit knife, their focus instantly locked in.The hallway was already pretty narrow, and with the crowd gathered, anyone getting hurt would be on them. That realization had sweat pouring down their backs.Everyone was too focused on the struggle over the knife to notice the panic happening around Adela and the others.One of the guards, hearing the shattering sound, instinctively turned his head—and his soul almost left his body.The CEO’s girlfriend was being shoved right toward them, while her friend beside her was falling backward in the opposite direction.Without even thinking, the guard lunged forward and managed to catch Adela before she hit the ground.She looked up—just in time to see Jackson twist the knife slightly and jab it again into the woman’s stomach. Blood spilled along the blade.Adela’s whole body froze. Her vision blurred. The blood, the pai

  • Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama   444 Collapsing

    In front of the elevator down the hall, a woman in office attire came running toward them, looking disheveled and desperate.“Emma, please, help me. Somebody, please help me!” she cried, her voice filled with despair, echoing through the whole floor.Adela’s hair stood on end instantly. She didn’t even notice the tea splashing onto the back of her hand.The woman looked on the verge of collapsing, her appearance pitiful.Emma rushed out of the office. “Eve, why did you come to the development department? What happened to you? You… you… who did this to you!”Emma stopped short when she saw the bruising under the woman’s collar.People from all over the floor poured into the hallway. Many were asking what had happened, whether they should call the police.The woman, Eve, was trembling as she gripped Emma’s hand, her hoarse voice muffled by sobs. Adela and the others, standing farther away, couldn’t hear clearly—just the repeated words:“Run!” Eve kept saying it over and over. Adela wasn

    Adela’s pace visibly slowed when she saw Marah straighten up. Her face was expressionless, but her eyes held undisguised disgust and anger.Marah’s voice was cold. “Adela, I want to talk to you.”Adela glanced at the people waiting for the elevator, her expression just as blank. “You and I have nothing to talk about.”She watched the elevator numbers tick down toward 1, and only when the doors opened did she step in with the crowd. At Starry, she carried her own kind of icy shield; no matter how crowded it got, no one dared stand too close.Sometimes she could even amuse herself in moments like this—rumors did have their perks. The onlookers kept their distance out of “courtesy.”The moment the elevator doors began to close, Marah shoved her way in, her eyes locked on Adela the entire time.Adela kept her expression calm, eyes fixed on the floor numbers, not giving Marah even a glance.Even after exiting the elevator, Adela’s steps were light and unhurried. Without a sideways look, sh

    Carlton’s eyes flicked over to Marah and her teammate. He frowned slightly, clearly debating how to begin.The silence dragged on—awkwardly long—until a knock on the door jolted everyone on the couch to attention.Adela turned toward the sound and, sure enough, saw Chloe, the team lead from the Swe

    Before Adela could fully organize her thoughts, she heard Emma whisper to Marah’s group,"Mind if I come with you guys to Director Carlton’s office?"One of the girls responded brightly, “Sure!”The office fell quiet again.A shadow fell across Adela’s desk. She didn’t look up this time. “Don’t tel

    Adela frowned, absolutely fuming at Marah’s latest jab. She almost reached for Layson’s arm to show Marah what real PDA looked like—and how shameless she could really be.But in the end, she restrained herself.She sneered, “Holding hands is shameless now? Then I hope you and your boyfriend never t

    Layson glanced sideways at Adela, eyes filled with amusement. The slight pout on her lips was adorable. He didn’t know what other people experienced when they fell in love—but for him, it was this constant itch to tease her, ruffle her, provoke her. It was addicting.No wonder Liam Walton didn’t li
