It had been a few days since the court incident. Custody had been finalized, and Edward was now living with Stefan. He had already grown close to Maxwell.

At the moment, Dorothy and Stefan were at Harrison’s hospital for a prenatal appointment.

Stefan sat beside the examination bed, staring at the ultrasound screen with a confused expression while Harrison moved the scanner gently over Dorothy’s growing belly.

"That’s the feet," Harrison said, pointing to the monitor.

“They’re so tiny. Oh my God, I’m going to cry,” Dorothy gushed, her eyes softening.

Stefan still looked lost, squinting at the screen like it was written in another language.

“I’m not sure what I’m even looking at,” he muttered.

“If you spent half as much time researching babies and pregnancy as you do glaring at Levi, you’d be more educated by now,” Harrison teased.

If Harrison wasn’t currently scanning his wife, Stefan would’ve thrown something at him.

    It was Tuesday. Dorothy and Stefan were dressed and ready to head to court. Beatrice was dressed up too—she would be joining them, while Maxwell was already at school.The drive to the law firm took nearly thirty minutes.Bianca’s team was already present and waiting. Even Griffin and Levi were there. Stefan couldn’t help but frown.“Come on, don’t you love it when I show up to support you?” Levi teased.“I think we all know you’re just here for the drama,” Dorothy muttered, rolling her eyes. Her reaction earned a small grin from Levi.“Your wife is starting to understand me. Nothing turns me on more than a bit of chaos,” he said enthusiastically. “I love being part of a moment where someone is about to crash and burn.”Bianca arrived with James and her lawyer, casting Dorothy a venomous glare as she walked to her side of the courtroom.“I’m so excited to see how this plays out,” Levi clapped, clearly entertained. “It’s all over the news—Exes Battle It Out in Court. Stefan, you better

    Arthur sat comfortably on his sofa, one leg crossed over the other, sipping tea from a dainty porcelain cup.“To what do I owe the special visit of my son today?” he asked, staring at Stefan seated opposite him.“I didn’t come for a father-son chat,” Stefan said dryly.“Then why are you here?” Arthur asked.“To question your usefulness in this family,” Stefan replied, and Arthur’s smile slowly faded.“What do you mean by that?”“Everything, Arthur,” Stefan said bluntly.“You’ll speak to me with respect. I’m still your father,” Arthur warned, trying to mask the offense in his voice.“Then don’t see me as your son today,” Stefan shrugged. “See me as the CEO of Dynamics Corporation—man to man.”He pulled a sleek envelope from his suit pocket and handed it to Arthur.“I don’t want to talk much. Just take a look—this is how your son has been running the company.”Arthur opened the envelope and flipped through the photos. His eyes widened.“That son of a bitch,” he muttered.“He’s dragging

    Harrison removed the stethoscope from his ears and shook his head. He met Kai outside, who was sitting like he couldn't care less."Why do y’all hate me?" was Harrison’s first question.Kai looked up at him, confused."It was supposed to be my day off—and that’s exactly when something always happens. Honestly, when you called me, I thought it was going to be Dorothy again, who—""How is she?" Kai cut in.Harrison shook his head. "You work in a bar now, Kai. I’m pretty sure you know better than to serve a pregnant woman beer."Kai blinked in surprise. "I didn’t know she was pregnant.""And I didn’t know you were quietly working your way into fatherhood," Harrison teased.Kai shook his head. "The baby isn’t mine. I only brought her here because she was in pain. If I had known she was pregnant, I wouldn’t have let her drink.""I believe you," Harrison shrugged."So... what’s going to happen to her now?" Kai asked."You brought her, you take care of her," Harrison replied, then shoved his

    Dynamic CorporationA soft, familiar knock sounded on Stefan's door. Griffin stepped in, holding some files."These are all you need, Mr. Stefan," he said while placing the files on the table."This one is for Miss Bianca, and this one is for Mr. Tristan."Stefan flipped through Tristan's records, a slight smirk curling his lips."I knew that bastard wasn't capable of doing anything on his own," he mumbled.Tristan was never supposed to be his business in the first place, but since the man decided to mess with him, Stefan had no choice but to do what served him right. And as for Bianca, she was getting exactly what she asked for."Thank you, Griffin. Do one more thing for me, please," Stefan said, setting the letters down and giving Griffin a serious look."It is my pleasure to do anything for you, Mr. Stefan," Griffin replied, matching the seriousness.Stefan turned his laptop toward him. A simple-looking restaurant was displayed on the screen."I want to rent this place tonight. It'

    The next day, Dorothy was getting ready for work when a knock came at the door. She narrowed her eyes, wondering who it could be, then went to open it.Standing in front of her was a familiar little boy, about 4'1, wearing a pout on his face."Aunty, I feel bad for talking to you like that yesterday. I'm really sorry," Maxwell said softly."Aww, look at you," Dorothy cooed, resisting the urge to squeeze his cheeks and ruffle his blond hair. "I agree you shouldn't speak to elders like that — it's not nice — but aunty forgives you, okay?""Thank you!" Maxwell smiled, then ran back to the living room.Dorothy smiled after him and gave herself a quick once-over before leaving her room. Downstairs, Stefan sat with Beatrice, sipping from a small cup of tea. When he saw Dorothy dressed up, he looked surprised."What's going on, love? Why are you dressed like this?" he asked with a blank expression."Exactly what you think — I'm going to work," Dorothy said, almost rolling her eyes."Love, yo
