Rome wasn’t sure if she should step into the MIC campus gate or turn around and bolt for her freedom. Her heart had been hammering like a construction worker on overtime since she left the tricycle stand. She had been practicing her speech for hours: how to tell her parents she failed to make it into the top ten honor students, how to explain the barely-passing Physics grade, and most importantly— how to survive without getting disowned.

Three days ago, she had received the results of her make-up exam for Physics. And despite her prayers, the only miracle she got was a grade of 76. Not even a full five-point improvement—just enough to escape the dreaded red mark on her card. Anything below 75 would’ve turned her grade into a life sentence. Gosh.

She could live with 76. Well, barely…

But facing her parents? That

    Rome was utterly exhausted by the time she returned to the mansion that evening. After unexpectedly running into Precilla at the department store earlier that day, the other woman had invited her to grab a cup of coffee. To avoid answering questions about the father of her unborn child, Rome politely declined and told her she had somewhere else to be.Precilla had asked for her number, saying she would call her soon to set up a coffee date.Rome gave her the number, but she had no intention of meeting up.Not only did she not want to revisit the topic of her baby's father, she also felt increasingly small whenever she was around Precilla. The woman looked like a real-life princess, while she, Rome, felt like some ordinary girl off the street who had swallowed a watermelon. Her pride couldn't bear sitting beside her

    As she entered their bedroom, Rome immediately furrowed her brows upon seeing two shopping bags placed neatly on top of the bed.Those bags came from a high-end men’s boutique.Cayson was home.That was her first thought. And judging by the packaging, he had done some shopping for himself. She assumed he must have bought clothes while staying at the office these past few days.Or was he really staying at the office?Could that have just been an excuse? Was he back to his old ways again?Ugh. She didn’t want to overthink.She walked further into the room and glanced at the bathroom door. She could hear fa

    Two days. That was how long Cayson had not returned home after the day they went to the OB clinic for Rome’s ultrasound appointment.If he hadn’t called to check on her every now and then, she might have already panicked, worrying something bad had happened to him. He would call just to ask how she was, if she had eaten properly, or if she needed anything. But those were short, clipped calls, never giving her the chance to speak at length. She had the urge to ask when he would be coming home, but she didn’t want to hear him repeat what he had already said before; to go over the terms again before she started asking personal questions.Even Althea Montemayor would check in from time to time, asking about the baby. Rome would end up sending Cayson a message to relay updates, only to find out later that he had personally called his grandmother to

    After their visit to the clinic, they dropped by the supermarket to pick up some fruits she had been craving and would likely want over the next few days. Cayson had returned to the parking lot to get his wallet, which he had apparently left on the dashboard. While waiting for him to come back, she wandered down a few aisles, picking up boxes of milk, unsweetened biscuits, and other healthy snacks she could nibble on."Kiwi, mangoes, strawberries..." She picked them up one by one and carefully placed them in the cart. As she did so, her mind drifted back to that alcoholic punch she drank during Cayson’s party; one of the key reasons she was now standing exactly where she was today, carrying his child.But did she still regret it now?"Rome? Oh, we meet again!"

  • THROUGH THE WIND AND THE RAIN (ENGLISH)   CHAPTER 081 - Mother of His Children

    Her eyes widened slowly. Wow, this idiot, is he seriously planning to make her into a baby factory?But strangely, the thought sent a thrilling kind of chill down her spine. Not in a bad way, but in a strangely exciting one. Like a warm current running through her veins. Cayson wanted her to be the mother of his son. He wanted her to carry his second child. He did not want anyone else to bear his child. Only her.Oh, even if it was just a vision in her head, she could already picture their children running and playing in the mansion’s garden. A girl and a boy. The image danced vividly in her mind. She could not contain the excitement welling up inside her.But she did not want him to see the joy written across her face. Even if he seemed to be suggesting that she become a full-time baby-maker for the duration

    Rome could hardly believe what she had just heard from the doctor, who was gliding the transducer gently over her belly to determine the baby’s gender. Cayson sat on a low stool beside her, watching the screen intently. The image was crystal clear— their baby was curled up, peaceful and small, and its heartbeat echoed so loudly in the room that it brought tears to her eyes.Cayson was speechless. His expression looked like he was in a daze, completely overwhelmed by what he was seeing. But what struck her most was the joy that sparkled in his eyes, and it softened her heart in ways she hadn’t expected. For the first time, she saw him express something real, something deeply emotional, toward their child. It filled her with a quiet kind of happiness.And when the doctor finally announced their baby's gender, both she and Cayson were stunned. It
