Henry stood in front of Amanda. Expectant gazes turned to Amanda, who was sitting in front of him. Silence immediately enveloped the room; only the sound of the clock ticking on the wall could be heard in the ears of the four of them."It's been a long time since we lived apart, Amanda," Henry said tremblingly, trying to suppress his nervousness. "We've been through a lot together, and honestly, I can't live without you."Even though he felt nervous, Henry dared to propose to his ex-wife again in front of his assistant and secretary."We have been apart for so long, but my love for you has never changed. Even though you once hurt me because of a misunderstanding, the love in my heart never faded."Amanda looked at Henry with a face full of doubt. Her mind and heart were racing. Remembering the reasons behind their decision to separate made Amanda's heart cut like a dagger. She knows that mistakes and misunderstandings have ruined the love they once had."But..." Amanda looked down; sh
In a quiet living room, Henry sat on the sofa with a tense face and sharp eyes, looking at his mother. Beside him was Amanda."Why don't you bring my grandchildren?" Mrs. Vena asked, pretending to be excellent."Mom, we decided to get married again." Amanda got straight to the point. "I hope Mother will approve of us."Mrs. Vena was silent; she couldn't say a word. Even though Amanda had given birth to two grandchildren for her, she didn't want Amanda to be her second daughter-in-law because she didn't want to have a poor daughter-in-law.Henry smiled sarcastically, seeing his mother just silent and without saying a single word. "As I thought, Mom was nice to Amanda and just wanted to make her miserable."Amanda held Henry's hand so that the man wouldn't continue what he was saying."Amanda, we were fooled by this old woman. Do you still believe her?" Henry started the conversation in a firm tone."I'm sure Mom has changed, especially now that we have Alan and Alana. I'm sure your gue
Mrs. Vena even knelt in front of Amanda. She spoke in a hoarse voice while looking down. "Amanda, please forgive me. I regret planning to take Alan and Alana from you. I realize your relationship with my grandson is important, which I never felt before."Amanda was stunned to hear Mrs. Vena's apology. She never expected that Mrs. Vena would kneel before her and apologize so sincerely. Her heart was filled with emotion and began to soften."I have seen your influence on my grandchild's life. I realize my mistake and promise not to separate you from them. You are a great mother, and my grandchildren need you. I ask that you forgive me."Amanda felt moved and wanted to give Mrs. Vena a second chance. She could see the genuine change in the woman's heart."Mrs. Vena," said Amanda understandingly, "I appreciate your apology. I also hope that we can improve our relationship in the future. Wake up!"Amanda stood up and helped her ex-in-law to get up. Even though the woman had done a lot of w
"Arghhh ...!"A girl screamed before her body bounced off and fell onto the asphalt. The little body was sprawled and covered in blood. Thankfully, her head was propped up by the bag she was carrying, but the child had no moans or cries."You hit a kid, Boss." William saw with his own eyes that the little girl was blown away.A man wearing a white shirt exited the car hurriedly, his breath ragged when he saw the little girl lying and covered in blood.The man who came out from the left side of the car just muttered to himself when he saw the little girl who his boss hit. 'Alana.'The man called by the boss carried Alana's body. "Willy, you drive. Fast!" Henry ordered before getting into his car."Okay, boss." William ran his car through the city streets. Luckily, the road wasn't jammed even though it was busy with vehicles, but it was smooth.Henry, the CEO of BARA Corporation, still looks young and handsome at the age of thirty year. The man kept looking at the face of the child, who
The woman called Amanda was surprised. Her lips uttered Henry's name even though she didn't make a sound."Manda, why are you here?" he asked.Henry glanced alternately at Alana and Amanda, two women of different ages whose faces looked very similar.Amanda enters the emergency room. Her tears overflowed when she saw her daughter lying limp with her head wrapped in bandages."You're the one who hit my girl?" Amanda asked Henry. Even though she was annoyed, she kept her voice down so as not to disturb other patients."Child?" Henry couldn't hide his surprise at Amanda's statement that she was the mother of the child he had run into. "Is she your daughter?"Amanda didn't answer Henry's question. She continued to look at her daughter with pity, lying weak in the hospital bed."Manda, tell me the truth, she's my girl?" asked Henry, forcing Amanda to face him. However, the young mother shook off the hand of the man who had bumped into her child."Don't make fun of you!" Amanda was furious b
"We'll talk outside," said Amanda.Amanda rose from her seat before leaving the child. She first pulled Alana's blanket up so her child wouldn't get cold.Amanda came out first, followed by Henry. She deliberately spoke outside so Alana would not hear if she woke up.Alana can't hear her conversation with Henry, let alone the matter being discussed about her.The young mother did not want Henry to discover the truth about her twins.Amanda and Henry headed to a hospital garden right behind Alana's ward.The young mother sat on one of the park benches. Henry wanted to sit in one chair but knew his ex-wife would refuse to sit near him."Manda, answer my question honestly!" Henry asked. "Is Alana my daughter?" the man asked again.Henry repeatedly asked Amanda the same question. He hoped that his ex-wife would give a different answer than before.Amanda was silent momentarily after hearing Henry's question, which she had been asked more than twice. She exhaled roughly, then answered firml
Amanda can't pay it, but she doesn't want to accept help from Henry because she doesn't wish the identities of her twins to be exposed. She will continue to hide Alana and Alan's identity until she is ready to reveal it to her children later.Henry is not a man who is easily deceived. Seeing Amanda's behavior makes the man suspicious, as if the woman is hiding something."Why do you keep following me? I already told you I'm telling the truth. Now it's up to you to believe it or not." Amanda looks frustrated when her ex still follows her."I just wanted to take responsibility, but you forbade it." Henry was stubborn. He didn't care about Amanda's ban."Okay, if you want to be responsible, now take care of Alana in her room. I'll be home in a while to pick up Alana's needs," Amanda said, slightly pushing Henry's body so as not to get too close to her. "Let me take you to pick up Alana's stuff," Henry said."I'll take it myself!" she insisted."Amanda, let me help you. You were once a pa
Henry pressed the button on the bed to call the doctor. He panicked when Alana regained consciousness after crying hysterically.Henry was worried that Alana had been seriously injured in the accident. Although it wasn't entirely his fault that the child herself ran into the middle of the road, he couldn't just let go of the responsibility. As a result, Henry must now be trapped again with his past love.After waiting for a while, the doctor arrived and immediately examined Alana. "I've given her some medicine; she'll wake up soon," said the doctor, "it's best if someone close to the patient takes care of her so that when she wakes up, she won't be hysterical.""Yes, Doctor. Thank you very much," Henry said to the doctor before the man in the white coat left Alana's room.After some time, William came to the infirmary after paying the hospital administration."Everything is in order, Boss. I have paid all of Alana's hospital fees." William only reported but did not give the files beca
