Nadine sat down for a moment on her work chair.

“Turns out, this is exhausting,” she thought to herself, massaging her aching calves. She lifted the brim of her cap slightly and wiped the sweat trickling down her temple. Her hand reached into her bag for a water bottle, and she took a slow sip.

After regaining some energy, Nadine continued her work. She stepped into the restroom, cleaning each stall one by one. The task wasn’t too heavy today since she had already cleaned part of it before lea

  • The Cruel CEO's Mistress    Chapter 31

    Nadine picked up the phone lying beside her bed. The screen displayed the face of a man she had been trying to forget.She stared at Justine’s photo for quite some time."Judging from his face, he doesn't seem to be originally from Indonesia. He looks like a foreigner, yet his accent is unmistakably Indonesian."Without realizing it, Nadine saved several photos of the man that she had found on the internet."Daddy, you are so handsome. Your eyes are brown. I don't know whether that's their natural colour or if you're wearing contact lenses. Your hair is brown too, your nose is straight, and your lips are red."Her gaze stopped on the man's lips. Without realizing it, Nadine touched her own lips.The memory of their kiss came back to her.She immediately closed her eyes."What am I thinking? Why do I miss him instead?"Tears began to fall."I don't want to remember him. I hate him. He has ruined my life. I no longer have a future."Nadine sobbed."People will surely insult and look dow

    The night air was cold. Sitting alone at the small station beside the restroom made it even harder for Nadine to fight off her drowsiness."If only there were another attendant here. At least I'd have someone to talk to," she murmured softly, rubbing her arms as the chill began to seep into her skin.She let out a long breath before reaching into her bag for her water bottle. After taking a few sips, she pulled out a packet of biscuits she had bought earlier at the supermarket."Maybe eating something will help me stay awake."Nadine nibbled on the biscuits slowly. Her eyelids repeatedly drooped before she forced them open again. The nightclub was unusually quiet that evening. Every so often, she entered the restroom to clean the floor and sinks before returning to her chair."Thank goodness... we can get a little rest tonight," she whispered, gently caressing her growing belly.From time to time, she paced the corridor to keep herself awake.Before she realized it, her shift had come

    After returning from work, Nadine immediately lay down on the thin mattress in her rented room. Every inch of her body ached after working almost nonstop for months.She gently stroked her growing belly."At last, we can finally rest. You must be tired too, staying with me through those long nights at work."A faint smile curved her lips before her eyes slowly drifted shut.The ringing of her phone woke her.Blinking sleepily, Nadine reached for the phone beside her pillow. Erna's name appeared on the screen.Her eyes widened when she noticed the time."Oh my goodness... it's already seven."She quickly answered the call."Hello, Mom.""Hello, sweetheart. Did you just wake up?" Erna asked gently."Yes. I accidentally fell asleep.""How are you feeling? Are you still getting sick often?""I'm much better now. I still feel weak sometimes, but not as often as before."Erna let out a quiet sigh of relief. For months, she had never truly stopped worrying about her eldest daughter, who had

    Justine remained seated upright in his office chair. Even now, his anger over Tio's betrayal had yet to subside."I never truly trusted him from the very beginning. The moment he came begging me for a job, I already knew he wasn't a loyal man. Even so, I still gave him a chance."His jaw tightened."A traitor will always be a traitor."His fingers curled into a fist so tightly that his knuckles turned white.There was nothing he despised more than betrayal."I may have already eliminated him, but the people standing behind him won't get away so easily."He would not stop until he uncovered the mastermind behind it all.The phone on his desk rang, breaking his train of thought. Bobby's name appeared on the screen.Justine answered immediately."Hello.""Good afternoon, sir.""What is it?""Our factory is under surveillance. An intruder has managed to infiltrate the weapons factory."Justine's gaze instantly sharpened."Do you know who sent him?""I have one suspect.""Is he with the au

    As soon as she stepped out of the clinic lobby, the cool afternoon breeze brushed against Nadine's face. She walked with light steps, carrying a small paper bag containing her prenatal vitamins.The warmth she had felt after hearing her baby's heartbeat for the first time still lingered in her heart, filling her with a quiet sense of peace.As she walked, her hand instinctively rested on the gentle curve of her growing belly beneath her blue dress."You're hungry, aren't you, sweetheart?" she whispered with a faint smile on her pale lips. "The doctor said we need to eat nutritious food from now on."Remembering the doctor's advice, Nadine abandoned her plan to return straight to her rented house. Instead, she turned toward a small supermarket not far from the clinic. From now on, she could no longer neglect her own health for the sake of the tiny life that depended entirely on her.As she stepped through the automatic glass doors, a wave of cool air greeted her. She picked up a small

  • The Cruel CEO's Mistress    Chapter 26

    Nadine walked to a clinic located not far from her rented house. That afternoon, she looked graceful in a dark blue knee-length dress with an elastic waistband just beneath her bust. The simple dress, her favorite, was still comfortable to wear even though her belly had begun to show.She stopped for a moment in front of the clinic entrance. Standing there, she took a deep breath before finally gathering the courage to step inside."Come on, sweetheart. Let's go in," she whispered softly as she stroked her belly.She let out a quiet sigh of relief when she found the waiting room almost empty. Only a nurse was seated behind the reception desk."Excuse me, Nurse. I'd like to have my pregnancy checked. Is the doctor seeing patients today?" Nadine asked politely after taking a seat in front of the registration desk."Yes, ma'am. Have you been here before?" the young nurse in a white uniform asked with a friendly smile."No."The nurse nodded and picked up a registration form."All right.
