The city lights blurred past as Emma gripped the steering wheel, her sharp eyes scanning the streets ahead while Aria sat quietly in the passenger seat. Her hands rested gently on her belly, still hidden beneath her oversized coat, and a nervous flutter danced in her chest.

“I still can’t believe we’re finally doing this,” Aria whispered, her voice soft, almost fragile.

Emma glanced at her, smirking. “Believe it, Ari. You’ve been carrying this secret long enough. Time to find out if you’re having a little troublemaker, a tiny genius, or both.”

Aria let out a shaky laugh, the tension in her shoulders easing slightly. “Both…” she murmured, almost to herself, remembering the twins. The thought made her heart pound. She had kept this secret from Nicolas, from Ava, even from everyone else but now, finally, she would know the genders.

The car pulled up in front of the clinic. Emma killed the engine and turned to her, her smile encouraging. “Ready?”

Aria took a deep breath and nodded. “As re

    The office was hushed, the hum of the office muted behind closed doors. Nicolas caged her in with one arm braced against the wall, his eyes dark with accusation.“You forced me into marriage, Aria,” he bit out. “You bargained with me your blood for Ava’s life. And now you disappear for weeks without a word? Don’t tell me this is some new tactic to make me chase you. Playing hard to get doesn’t suit you.”Aria’s chest tightened, but her expression stayed cold, composed. She clutched her sketchbook like armor.“Hard to get?” Her voice was calm, but each word sliced like a blade. “You threw me out in the middle of the night, Nicolas. You believed every lie Ava fed you. You believed that falsified report… the one that said the baby I carry wasn’t yours.”Nicolas stiffened, his jaw locking.Aria’s eyes glistened, but her tone never wavered. “I forced that marriage because I wanted a family for my child. And because I was foolish enough to love you. But now?” She drew in a sharp breath, her

    The conference room glittered under the chandeliers as the King family took their seats. Charles and Stella greeted Ava warmly, their smiles radiant. “Ava, darling, we’re so glad you’re the one leading this project,” Stella said proudly. “You’ve matured so much. Nicolas is lucky to have you at his side.”Charles nodded in agreement. “This collaboration will be historic. Brown Jewelry and the King Empire together it’s exactly what we want to show the world.”Ava’s smile was dazzling, her hand resting lightly on Nicolas’s arm as if she already belonged there.At the far end of the table, Aria sat quietly, pen poised above her notes. Her oversized coat and calm demeanor made her look almost invisible but her sharp eyes missed nothing. She had learned long ago that silence was its own kind of power.The presentation began. Ava spoke first, her tone polished and confident. “Our preliminary theme is Royal Heritage. Crowns, tiaras, crests, symbols of majesty and wealth. It aligns with King

    For the next few days, Aria buried herself in work. She said nothing, showed nothing, simply delivered her designs with quiet precision. Her oversized coats and calm face gave no clue about the storm inside her.But things… began to shift.On Monday, two of her sketches mysteriously went missing from the design board. The manager scolded her for being careless, though Aria knew she hadn’t misplaced them. She bit her lip and said nothing.On Tuesday, one of her finished pieces was returned with a note claiming it was “unoriginal.” The handwriting wasn’t her manager’s. Aria recognized Ava’s elegant script instantly. Still, she lowered her head and took the criticism.By Wednesday, deadlines she hadn’t been informed of suddenly appeared on her desk. Her colleagues whispered behind her back, clearly pleased to see the once-respected designer faltering. Ava and her assistant Lila lingered in the background, watching it all unfold with poisonous smiles.And through it all, Aria endured. She

    The morning at Collins Jewelry was unusually tense. Whispers spread like wildfire through the office floor.“Did you hear? Collins Jewelry got acquired.” “Yeah, by the Brown family company!” “Wait… the Browns? As in Ava Brown’s family?” “Exactly. And rumor is she’s coming here today.”Aria walked in quietly, her oversized coat wrapped tightly around her frame. Her sketchbook was clutched close to her chest, the only thing anchoring her in place. She tried to ignore the buzz around her, but Bella, her closest colleague, appeared at her side in an instant.“Aria,” Bella whispered, her voice urgent. “It’s official. The Browns bought us out. And guess who’s the new executive in charge?”Aria’s stomach knotted. “…Don’t tell me—”Before Bella could answer, the conference room doors burst open.The sharp click of red stilettos echoed through the air.A tall figure in a tailored designer suit walked in, her lips curled into a victorious smile.“Ava Brown?” one of the employees gasped.A

    That night, after Nicolas threw her out, Aria had nowhere to go. She still had her job at Collins Jewelry, but the paycheck was barely enough for food and doctor visits, let alone rent in the city.So she dragged herself to a run-down hotel on the corner of an unfamiliar street. The receptionist gave her a look before sliding the key across the counter. “Payment upfront.”Aria handed over her last few bills, knowing they would only cover her stay for a couple of weeks at most. After that… she didn’t want to think about it.Her room smelled faintly of mold, the wallpaper peeling, but it was better than the rain outside. She curled up on the creaky bed, clutching her belly, whispering to the tiny lives inside her, I’ll find a way. I promise.The next morning, Aria checked out of the shabby hotel, her oversized coat wrapped tightly around her. She walked quickly down the street, sketchbook clutched to her chest, determined to drag herself to work and pretend nothing was wrong.But fate h
