“Th-thank you so much, Lian.”

Ten minutes had passed since Julian drove away from her house when Sarah finally spoke. “I don’t know what I would’ve done if you hadn’t been able to come.” She lowered her head, unable to hide how embarrassed she felt about troubling him.

“It’s okay. I told you, whenever you need help, I’m always ready to help. So don’t feel awkward about it.” Julian smiled and glanced briefly

    “Babe … aren’t you supposed to be working?” Sarah’s question was perfectly reasonable. They had spent more than two weeks traveling around Europe for their honeymoon, and now they were still enjoying their time together.“Of course I am,” Julian replied, keeping his eyes closed. “Working on you.” He opened his eyes and chuckled against Sarah’s stomach.“Julian! I’m serious.”“Everything at work is under control. I can monitor things remotely. Anyway, I want to spend this entire month relaxing and enjoying some quality time with you.” Julian buried his face against Sarah’s flat stomach again.“What’s wrong? Are you getting tired of our honeymoon already?” he asked when h

    “Is this really my wife, or did a stray angel somehow wander down to earth?” Julian whispered the question as they continued greeting the long line of wedding guests.Sarah blushed yet again. She had never imagined that the bridal makeup for the marriage ceremony would transform her so completely. And now, for their evening reception, she had been dressed in an exquisite gown that made her look like a princess straight out of a fairy tale.Her face had been given another round of beautiful makeup, this time with a more natural finish. Her traditional updo had also been replaced with an elegant little tiara that added a delicate sparkle to her overall look. No wonder Julian couldn't stop complimenting his wife throughout their reception.“Your sweet talk is getting smoother by the minute, Mr. Boss,” Sarah retorted, hiding her smile.Her free hand slipped away from Julian's grasp and moved to the small of her back, where she pressed

  • Too Late To Want Me   61. New Life

    The long-awaited day had finally arrived. By Friday afternoon, Sarah was already dressed to perfection, her face adorned with traditional Javanese bridal makeup, complete with an elegant paes design on her forehead, courtesy of a renowned makeup artist whose hands worked like magic. Even Sarah herself was amazed when she saw the final result in the mirror. She looked so different that she could barely recognize herself.“You look absolutely gorgeous.”The voice of Aunt Delilah, her father's younger sister in law, made Sarah turn around immediately. The middle aged woman, who had once been Sarah's confidante after her mother's passing, smiled warmly at her niece.“Thank you, Auntie.” Sarah quickly reached for Delilah's hands and gave them a gentle squeeze.“Nervous?”“Yes. It's a different kind of nervousness,” Sarah replied as she accepted the bottle of mineral water Dinda offered her.“That

    She shuddered at the thought."Oh... well, tomorrow night, someone else will be taking care of those massages, won't he, Sis?" Ruby blurted out, making everyone in the room burst into laughter."That kind of massage is different. It comes with extra benefits and a whole lot of love," Diana chimed in. She had been busy packing Sarah's clothes into a suitcase to take to the hotel that afternoon."Anyway, we're going to make sure you look absolutely radiant and breathtaking tomorrow—from morning until night, and then all the way into the next morning!" Mia declared, making Sarah blush as she tried to suppress a smile."Oh, my goodness! Are you all trying to get yourselves fired or what?""If you fire me, I'll report you to Mrs. Kyle!" Diana immediately retorted.The pretty, short-haired woman was busy arranging the equipment for the treatments. Sarah could only gape at the relentless teasing from her best friend and employees.

    "You're the reason I'm scrambling around like this! You had to move the date up!" Sarah grumbled as she checked the invitations inside the paper bag resting on her lap. Just a few minutes earlier, she had delivered an invitation to Norah, her former mother in law."Well, weren't you the one who said you'd go along with whatever I wanted?" Julian replied casually, holding back a smile."I know, but you still caught me off guard. How am I supposed to inform the entire family when we only have five days left?""Well, I'm sorry, but everything's taken care of now, isn't it?" Julian occasionally ran his left hand through Sarah's long hair, which she had tied into a high bun that afternoon."Yeah, but some people just can't keep their mouths shut. They think we're rushing the wedding because... um... because of... you know..." Sarah's voice trailed off.Mia's words from that morning, when Sarah had informed her about the new wedding date, echoed in her m

    Like the rain that came and went, one shower replacing another, as if to remind everyone that nothing lasted forever, Declan felt the same way. He didn't want to remain trapped in eternal regret over losing Sarah. That was why, ever since he had been transferred to Balikpapan, he had used the distance between them as an opportunity to leave their memories behind.Meanwhile, Natalie had recently been released from rehabilitation and was beginning to rebuild her life with her little family. This was further confirmed by the messages Declan had received from her personal number a few weeks earlier. They were filled with apologies and expressions of regret.Declan had deliberately left every message unanswered. Not because he held a grudge against Natalie or hated her, but because he wanted to maintain his distance from the woman who had now returned to her husband's arms."Son!" a middle aged woman called, waving at Declan."Mom, you're finally here. Where's Dad?" Declan approached her a
