Luna wears a chic wool beret and a mask, her arm casually linked through Ethan's as they stroll through the fresh produce section.

"Since when did you suddenly develop the urge to cook?" Luna asks, her voice muffled slightly by the mask. As long as she has known him, Ethan Caldwell has never once belonged in a kitchen.

"I just wanted to make dinner with you," Ethan replies, casting a deeply aggrieved, almost pouty glance down at her. "You ignored my existence for the past three days."

  • She Was His Obsession. Now She's Everyone's   Ch116 - Video

    Miles away, inside the modern living room of the Clearwater Point villa, the atmosphere hums with a completely different kind of tension.The moment Nathan steps out onto the glass terrace to field an urgent corporate phone call, Ethan seizes the fleeting window of opportunity.Ignoring the boundaries of basic decency, the Caldwell patriarch steps closer to the sofa, his fingers gently lifting the hem of Luna's silk blouse to inspect the injury on her lower back.Against the flawless, porcelain expanse of her skin, the dark, blooming expanse of purple bruising looks horrific.A profound, visceral flash of heartache ripples through Ethan's eyes. "You need to stop utilizing your own body as a weapon," he murmurs."But the results are undeniably effective, aren't they?" Luna turns her head. "You really shouldn't visit me anymore. If Nathan catches onto your lingering obsession, it will only complicate my plans."Before Ethan can formulate a properly bitter response, the sharp chime of an

  • She Was His Obsession. Now She's Everyone's   Ch115 - The Apology

    Having officially relocated to a sprawling villa in the exclusive Clearwater Point, Luna leans back against the velvet sofa, her eyes lazily tracking the tall, broad-shouldered silhouette moving clumsily around the open-concept kitchen.Because the estate's sole housekeeper requested an emergency leave of absence for the week, Luna had fully intended to order a catered meal from a high-end restaurant. However, Nathan volunteered to prepare their dinner himself.Watching the corporate titan aggressively wrestle with a cutting board and a handful of organic vegetables, Luna arches a skeptical brow, genuinely doubting whether anything edible will emerge from that kitchen tonight.The doorbell cuts through the quiet.Before she can rise, Nathan abandons the vegetables, wiping his hands on a towel as he strides to the door."I'll get it. You rest."She lets herself be treated like glass, picking up her phone instead—another message from Alex Pierce, his persistence bordering on desperate l

    "There are clear signs of a threatened miscarriage. The patient must avoid any severe emotional distress or physical trauma moving forward," Michael states.As the heir to the Fauci family's vast medical empire, his authority in Harlow is unquestionable.He smoothly detaches a prescription slip from his clipboard, extending it toward the anxious CEO. "Make sure she gets plenty of bed rest. Go down to the pharmacy and collect these medications.""I understand," Nathan murmurs. He gently squeezes Luna's hand before turning on his heel and striding out of the room.The door clicks shut, sealing the room in silence.Almost instantly, the fragile mask of pain vanishes from Luna's face.She shifts comfortably against the elevated pillows, a brilliant smile blooming across her lips. "Thank you for the performance today...I truly appreciate the trouble.""Though, I must mention, your precious sweetheart Stella seems to have actually jeopardized her pregnancy this afternoon. She might even be

    Dinner that night is anything but peaceful."You're pregnant?" Mrs. Vane's fork clatters against her plate. "Stella just announced hers, and now you suddenly have news too? How convenient.""Six weeks," Nathan says evenly, placing a bowl of soup in front of Luna.Gerald looks up. "Enough."His tone leaves no room for argument. Whatever his opinion of Luna, the woman carrying the first Vane grandchild deserves the family's protection.Mrs. Vane bites back the rest of her complaints, but by the following afternoon, Luna's pregnancy is still weighing on her mind as she accompanies Stella through an upscale maternity boutique."We'll take two of those," she says, gesturing toward the sales associate."Two?" Stella frowns. "The baby's not even that far along yet, Mom, no need to stock up this fast.""One set's for your sister-in-law. She's pregnant too.""Pregnant?" Stella blinks, the word landing strangely.She files the surprise away to ask about later, but her mother is already moving t

  • She Was His Obsession. Now She's Everyone's   Ch112 - Between Men

    The fever delays Luna's trip two days.By the time she's back in Harlow, a full week has passed.She slides into the backseat, raising a hand to stop Nathan before he can embrace her. "I am exhausted. Don't move.""Did you rush back for me?" He studies the circles under her eyes."Don't flatter yourself." She leans against the window. "I need to go home. You can just drop me off in the city center, and I will take a cab to the estate.""Am I forbidden from going with you?"Nathan is acutely aware of which "home" she is referring to. Ever since they dramatically secured their marriage certificate, Luna has deliberately avoided visiting her parents."You think my parents want to see your face right now?" Her brother had texted that her mother was unwell—the only reason she pushed through the flight at all. If her mother is hiding an illness from her, it means how disappointed they both are in this marriage.Nathan ignores her instructions entirely, ordering the driver straight through t

  • She Was His Obsession. Now She's Everyone's   Ch111 - Don't Go

    By the time they pull into the estate, Julian is already waiting at the front entrance.He wraps an arm around Luna with deliberate possessiveness, glaring at Ethan over her shoulder."I made all your favorites. Eat first."Ethan's expression darkens—until Luna pulls back and grabs his arm."Are you trying to catch pneumonia standing in the wind?"His menace evaporates instantly into something frail and pitiful. "The wind's making me dizzy.""Come inside."Inside, Julian slams a water glass onto the table hard enough to splash over the rim.Luna feeds Ethan his medication. He stays silent through it until she strokes his hair, and only then swallows obediently."Out of water," Ethan notes afterward, shaking the empty glass and looking straight at Julian. "Be a good guess and pour me another glass."A vein rises in Julian's neck, but he pours it anyway, jaw locked, while Ethan rests his head against Luna's shoulder and shoots him a look of pure triumph."Go to sleep early since you too

    The next week, Sophie slides the folder across the table without ceremony.Nolan looks at it for a long moment without touching it.

    The rain hasn't stopped.Inside the master suite, Marcus stands motionless before the fogged bathroom mirror. As the steam slowly clears, he looks at his collarbone and feels confusion, recollection, and then a particular variety of self-directed irritation that has no clean outlet.It is a bite ma
