"Do you still think about your ex-girlfriend?" Emily asked curiously.Vean fell silent. The image of Laura couldn't just disappear from his mind. The disappointment of being left behind still lingered deep in his heart, making him unable to forget her anytime soon.But Vean had promised to change. He had his own life now. And to redeem his wrongdoing, he would take responsibility for Emily and the child she was carrying."Love that brings pain is difficult to forget. But I will learn to cherish the true love that's right in front of me," Vean said with a smile.Emily smiled back. She wasn't sure if Vean's words could be trusted, but one thing was clear: when her husband gently held her hand, she tried to believe that hope was real.***Emily was currently on a plane to England with Vean. She stroked her growing belly, now in its fourth month of pregnancy. Many of her clothes didn't fit anymore, so Vean had bought her plenty of maternity clothes."I have a good doctor contact in Englan
"This is good news. Congratulations, Mrs. Emily. You have tested positive for pregnancy," Dr. Hans said with a delighted expression as he shared the results of Emily's recent tests.Emily's eyes widened in shock upon hearing that she was pregnant. She gently caressed her slightly bulging belly. Emily had thought that her recent bloating was due to overeating, but it seemed that her distended stomach was caused by something else entirely – a growing baby."Hmm, if I may ask, Mrs. Emily, do you have a husband?" Dr. Hans inquired."Yes, of course, but my husband is currently in England," Veronica replied."Well, he should be informed about this wonderful news as soon as possible. I understand how difficult long-distance marriage can be. It must be torturous not being able to be with your soulmate. I experienced it when I was a young doctor."Emily remained silent. She was truly bewildered about what to do next. Legally, there was no issue with her being pregnant by her legitimate husband
"Hmm, are you happy sitting with me now?" Vean asked, leaning closer to Emily.Emily slightly shifted her body when Vean got a bit closer. Although they were husband and wife, Emily couldn't expect Vean to touch her like a husband would his wife. Especially here, Emily was just a replacement wife."Um, well..." Emily hesitated to answer.If asked if she was happy, she certainly was. But on the other hand, Emily didn't like her current situation. She would rather be alone than with a man who was heavily intoxicated."You know, Laura always liked sitting alone with me. Especially when I started playing with her hair..." Vean reached out his hand and started twirling Emily's hair with his index finger.Emily's blood seemed to rush as a result of Vean's actions. Especially when he brought his face closer, slowly kissing her hair."Oh my goodness! Am I dreaming right now?" Emily whispered in her heart, her heart pounding wildly. She had never been treated like this before, and that's why s
Vean knew that in the eyes of others, he might seem like a frustrated man who was upset about failing to marry his girlfriend, Laura. Vean was just an ordinary guy. He longed to be happy with Laura. When that couldn't happen, how could he not be disappointed?And now, he had to marry another woman, Emily. Vean didn't know what Emily's feelings were, but he honestly felt foolish about the whole situation.What was on Vean's mind right now was the profound sadness he couldn't overcome. He just wanted to be happy with Laura.Vean's eyes closed. His memories went back to the past, when he and Laura were still together and planning to live together forever..."I thought, marriage isn't for everyone," Vean said while stroking Laura's hair."Why do you think that?" Laura asked curiously."Well, I've seen many celebrities who don't consider marriage a sacred thing. They get married, divorced, just like changing clothes.""Don't you like their behavior?""It's not that I don't like it. I can't
Vean took Emily into the elevator, and she followed him quietly. After a few moments, the elevator doors opened on the 15th floor. Vean walked out, and Emily followed.Finally, they stood in front of Vean's apartment door. The driver opened it for them, and they entered.Emily was in awe of the luxurious apartment. "Wow, it's a beautiful apartment," Emily said. Vean just rolled his eyes, not in the mood to respond to Emily's questions after the long journey.***Two weeks later, I had to reluctantly follow Vean to England after getting a report from Emily. The pounding music made everyone in the room dance on the dance floor. Including Vean. He swayed his body to the rhythm of the music played by the DJ.Vanya observed the behavior of her twin brother, who was busy dancing on the dance floor. She knew Vean was very frustrated. He had been drinking continuously and ended up going 'crazy' on the dance floor."Come on, sistah! Let's dance together!" shouted Vean as he raised a bottle of b
"Sigh, can't I ask anything?" Emily said, a bit disheartened."It's not wrong to ask, but your questions are like a child's. Anyway, sleep so you won't keep bothering me," Vean said, trying to close his eyes."Sir..." Emily called again. Vean sighed, "What is it now, Emily? Can't you let me sleep? I really want to sleep," Vean replied."Um... I need to use the restroom, Sir," Emily said."Oh my God, we've just taken off. Why didn't you go earlier?" Vean asked in frustration."Can't you use the restroom on the plane?" Emily asked while holding her stomach, feeling the urgency to go."Sigh... just go to the back, there'll be a flight attendant there," Vean said."Can't you escort me, Sir? I'm scared," Emily continued to persuade Vean to accompany her. She was too embarrassed to go alone since it was her first time flying, and her nervousness had caused her to act oddly."Go by yourself, I want to sleep," Vean replied.Emily sighed and chose to hold it in.Vean, who pretended to sleep, k
