Mrs. Aubrey insisted on meeting you before signing the contract with us" Chad said, his voice tinged with concern. He knew the importance of this business deal and the potential it had for their company's success.Kaylar turned her head to face Chad, her eyes slightly narrowing with determination. "Is that so?" she said, a touch of uncertainty in her voice. "We can't afford to let this opportunity slip away. We need to act swiftly. Arrange a meeting with Mrs Aubrey. I'll personally negotiate with her"Chad nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with determination.

Weeks passed and Kaylar's condition only worsened. She had been discharged from the hospital, and she moved in with her mom, who could better take care of her. Unfortunately, Kaylar fell into prenatal depression, unable to come to terms with Wayne's death and the loss of one of her babies.One day, as Kaylar sat alone in her room, her mom, Emilia, knocked on the door gently. "Kaylar, can I come in?" she asked with concern in her voice.Kaylar sighed and replied, "Sure, Mom. Come in."Emilia entered the room and sat down next to Kaylar on the bed. "Honey, I can see you're really struggling right now. It breaks my heart to see you like this. I know you're blaming yourself for what happened, but it wasn't your fault. None of this is."Tears welled up in Kaylar's eyes as she looked at her mom. "Mom, I can't help but feel responsible. If I hadn't asked Wayne to come to the ultrasound, he would still be alive. And if I had been able to protect my baby, maybe he or she would still be here to
"You'll have to leave the mansion by midnight," an eerie voice sounded from the phone, its words sending a chill down Asherly's spine. She tightly clutched the phone in her hand, her heart racing with fear and uncertainty. The voice belonged to a mysterious caller, and this was the second time they had reached out to her, filling her with a sense of dread."I can't leave the mansion, I'm under house arrest," Asherly whispered into the phone, her voice barely audible. She knew the consequences of defying the strict orders that confined her within the walls of the grand estate. Panic seeped into her voice, revealing the fear that gripped her tightly."Just get ready by midnight. I'll get someone to take you out of the mansion," the voice responded, its tone both urgent and comforting. Ashley's mind raced with questions, but before she could utter another word, the call abruptly ended, leaving her alone with her thoughts.Standing by the window of her room, Asherly gazed out into the moon
Meghan moved to Asherly's side, "Don't take your father's words to heart, he is just worried about you. Give him some time to blow off some steam."Asherly gritted her teeth in displeasure as she pushed Meghan away and ran up the stairs to her room without saying a word.Meghan was left standing alone with a deep sense of unease.…The beeping of the machines was the only sound that filled the sterile ICU room. Kaylar lay there, unmoving, her fragile body trapped between life and death. Tubes and wires connected her to various monitors, measuring her fading heartbeat and shallow breaths. The flickering fluorescent lights cast an ethereal glow upon her tear-stained face.As the night stretched on, Kaylar's consciousness drifted into a world of dreams. Within this realm, she found herself standing in a meadow, where the scent of blooming flowers danced in the air. A gentle breeze travelled through the tall grass, whispering secrets that only those immersed in dreams could hear.A figur
As Kaylar was pushed away in the stretcher and towards the direction of the ICU, Mia dropped her head in despair. She took in a deep breath, then turned to Emilia. "Auntie, you have to get some rest now. You heard the doctor, Kaylar will be fine," Mia said, hoping to reassure her.Emilia raised her head, her eyes filled with unshed tears. "It's fine, I'll stay and watch her. I won't leave," she replied, determination evident in her voice. She was determined to stay by Kaylar's side until she woke up.In the face of Emilia's stubbornness, Mia didn't know what to do. So she decided to try out her last option. "Auntie, I know you're worried about Kaylar, but you have to think about your health too. Kaylar wouldn't be happy to know that you neglected your well-being for her sake," Mia persuaded, hoping it would make Emilia reconsider.With a look of scepticism in Emilia's eyes, she nodded her head in understanding. "Fine, I'll leave now, but make sure to inform me as soon as she regains c
As she spoke, the guests listened with bated breath, their gaze fixed upon the woman who encapsulated both vulnerability and indomitable strength. Her words resonated deep within their hearts, their collective pain merging through her voice.Kaylar's voice grew even softer, and a serene sadness imbued her words. "In this very moment, he exists within me, the flesh and blood of his spirit pulsating through our children. We must mourn the loss of Wayne, but celebrate his lasting legacy—the gift of life that will be born from his love."Gathering her courage, Kaylar steadied herself against the podium as a wave of emotion threatened to overwhelm her. Her heart pounded within her chest, echoing the rhythm of the funeral dirge, a rhythm both mournful and defiant."We gather here today as a testament to the love that bound us, to the strength that emanated from Wayne's very being," she continued, her voice resolute now. "For every tear shed, let there be a whisper of gratitude for the momen
The next day, Kaylar reluctantly pulled herself out of bed and made her way into the bathroom to freshen up. As she looked at her reflection in the mirror, her eyes were bloodshot and swollen, adorned with prominent eye bags and dark circles. It was evident that she hadn't closed her eyes all night. After hastily getting dressed in one of Mia's loose gowns, Kaylar joined her friend in the car as Mia drove her back to the mansion. The drive was filled with an unnerving silence, with Kaylar appearing lifeless and dull. Mia couldn't help but notice that her usually vibrant friend was nothing more than a shadow of herself. As they arrived at the mansion, Mia gently tapped Kaylar on the shoulder, breaking the oppressive quietness. "We are here," she whispered. Kaylar stepped out of the car and made her way into the mansion, with Mia following closely behind. The usually bright and lively mansion seemed to reflect the heavy news of Wayne's death, shrouded in an atmosphere of gloom."Young
Kaylar's fingers trembled as she took the glass from Mia's outstretched hand. Their fingertips brushed briefly, a fleeting connection that conveyed unspoken understanding. Kaylar raised the glass to her lips, the water quenching both her thirst and the raw ache within her soul. She placed the empty glass on the table, her eyes still locked with Mia's.Mia's voice quivered with concern. "You should take a shower, let the water wash away some of the pain, and then get some rest. You need it."Kaylar nodded, her movements slow and automatic, as if operating on autopilot. Mia led her to the bathroom, their footsteps echoing through the quiet space. Inside, she turned on the shower, adjusting the temperature to a comforting warmth. Steam wisped through the air, filling the room with a cloud of tranquillity.Mia walked over to a nearby cabinet and pulled out a fresh set of nightgowns, her fingertips grazing the soft fabric. "These are new, fresh from the store. I haven't used them. Take y
However, upon seeing Kaylar's composure she decided to disclose the details. "It happened on Phoenix Ridge Expressway," Mia replied softly, her voice laced with both sympathy and hope.Several minutes passed in silence, Kaylar's thoughts racing through her mind. Mia saw the newfound composure in her friend and felt reassured that she would not do anything impulsive in her current state. With that reassurance, Mia excused herself from the room, needing a moment to gather her thoughts.Kaylar saw Mia's departure as an opportunity. She carefully observed her surroundings, her eyes landing on her bag resting in the corner of the room. Ignoring the pain and discomfort, she slowly made her way to it. With trembling hands, she dug through the contents of her bag until her grasp closed around the cold metal of her car key. Then she slipped it into her pocket.Kaylar's actions were not fueled by selfishness but by an overwhelming need to be by Wayne's side. She knew she needed to see him for h
