LOGINAnna was in the restroom of a restaurant. After washing her hands, she dried them with a tissue before stepping outside.She had barely taken a few steps when someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.Anna flinched and instinctively tried to pull her hand free.“When did you start seeing Liam?” Rendy demanded bluntly.“That’s none of your business.” Anna struggled against his grip. “Let go!”“I told you we were going to get back together. Why couldn’t you wait for me?” Rendy’s anger was becoming increasingly difficult to control.Anna glared at him.“From the moment I decided to divorce you, Rendy, I never had any intention of getting back together.”“I know you still love me. You’re just trying to get revenge on me, aren’t you?”His words made Anna feel sick. She could hardly believe that, after everything they had been through, Rendy could still be so arrogant.“You’re incredibly full of yourself, Rendy,” Anna said coldly. “I would never go back to you. Not now. Not ever.”“Don’t be so st
Liam looked at Anna, as though he were still waiting for her final reassurance. He knew she hadn’t completely agreed to make their relationship public.“I’m okay with it,” Anna said softly.“Are you sure? You really don’t mind if everyone finds out about us?” Liam asked again, just to be certain.Anna nodded.Instantly, Liam’s expression brightened. A wide smile spread across his face, as though she had finally given him the permission he had been waiting for all this time.Without thinking twice, Liam pulled Anna into his arms.“Not so tight, Liam! Remember, there’s a baby in there now,” Matilda scolded.Realizing what he had done, Liam immediately loosened his embrace.“Sorry. I’m just too happy,” he admitted, still looking ridiculously pleased.Matilda and Jonathan exchanged amused glances before smiling at their son. Liam, who was usually so composed and rarely showed his emotions, now looked like a man who had just won the most precious prize in the world.“Take good care of Anna
“Anna,” Matilda called out as Anna had just finished making her rounds.Anna immediately smiled. Matilda hurried over and pulled her daughter-in-law into a warm embrace.“Liam already told Mom. I’m so happy to hear the news. Thank you, sweetheart, for carrying our grandchild,” Matilda said, her eyes glistening with tears.“Don’t cry. You’re going to confuse Anna,” Jonathan said, standing beside her.“I’m just so happy. Aren’t you happy that we’re going to have a grandchild?”“How could I not be? If I could, I’d announce it to the whole world right now,” Jonathan replied without hesitation.His words made Anna laugh softly.“Mom, Dad, do you want to talk in my office?”“Sure. Come on, let’s see our precious daughter’s office. If Anna’s room isn’t comfortable enough, we’ll have to scold Liam,” Matilda declared.“That boy must have gotten it from someone else. He doesn’t know how to pamper his wife. Nothing like me,” Jonathan chimed in.“Liam is very good to me, Dad,” Anna defended her h
That night, the bedroom was filled with a quiet sense of peace.Liam stood behind Anna, gently drying her hair with a hairdryer. Every now and then, his fingers slipped through her hair, making sure no strand was left damp.Sitting in front of the vanity, Anna couldn't help but smile at the tenderness he was showing her.“So, when can I finally tell the world that you're my wife?” Liam suddenly asked.Anna raised an eyebrow at him through the mirror.“When I'm in the mood.”Liam chuckled softly. “Then what do I need to do to put you in a good mood?”Anna pretended to think.“What do you want? A bag? Clothes? Shoes?”Anna immediately shook her head.“I want spaghetti. But I want you to make it for me.”Liam's hand stopped mid-motion.“Now?”Anna nodded.“Wait here, okay? I'll make it for you.”Anna turned around, looking at him in disbelief. “You really want to cook for me?”“Of course.” Liam immediately switched off the hairdryer. “Is there anything else you want, Honey?”Anna shook h
The moment she heard the door open, Anna, who had been sitting lost in thought, immediately looked up.Her gaze landed on Liam as he stepped into the room.“Liam?”He didn’t answer right away. He simply walked toward her, his steps slow and deliberate. There was something different in his expression, something unusually serious in his eyes.Anna frowned in confusion.But before she could ask what was wrong, Liam suddenly dropped to one knee in front of her.Anna’s eyes widened in alarm.“Liam, what are you doing?” she asked, panicking.Liam looked up at her. The gaze that was usually so commanding and confident was now filled with something Anna had rarely seen in him—fear.“Please… don’t leave me.”Anna fell silent.She had never expected to hear those words from Liam.“I know I’ve been selfish,” he continued in a low voice. “I always thought I could do whatever I wanted without thinking about how it made you feel. I was so afraid of losing you that, without realizing it, I ended up
Anna strode into the VIP room with a sharp exhale, her gaze immediately locking onto Rendy sitting on the hospital bed. He looked perfectly fine. The only injury was a shallow cut across his palm, where a thin trickle of blood still seeped through.As a doctor, she only needed one glance to know it hadn't been caused by an accident. The wound was too neat, too superficial—as though he'd inflicted it on himself just to find an excuse to come here."Bandage his hand," Anna instructed Erika and Nina without taking a single step toward him."Yes, Doctor," they answered in unison."I want you to treat me, Anna," Rendy said, brushing Erika's hand away before she could clean the wound.Anna's eyes turned ice-cold."Don't make me despise you even more."Rendy let out a quiet chuckle, completely unfazed."I've told you from the very beginning—we're getting back together. Lusi and I were nothing but an act. Why can't you understand that, Anna?"Erika and Nina exchanged stunned glances. Neither
“Anna, why do you suddenly want to resign?” the hospital director asked.Anna stood in the director’s office. After crying the whole night, she had decided to leave everything behind.“You’re the best OB-GYN this hospital has,” William said earnestly. “I even believe you could become the deputy dir
“Is your future bride calm now?”Anna’s voice was flat when Rendy finally walked into the room. There was no explosion of anger—just a heavy exhaustion settling in every word she spoke.Rendy exhaled slowly and stepped toward her. “Baby… just listen to me first,” he said quietly. “I did all of this
“Anna,” Efendi called out just as she opened the front door. His voice was heavy—too heavy—like he was carrying something ominous.Anna froze halfway through taking off her shoes. Her eyes drifted to the living room. Renata and Efendi sat side by side, their faces drawn tight. Lusi was on the oppos
Anna kept waiting for Rendy, who still hadn’t returned to their room. The clock had already crept past ten, and every minute felt like an hour of growing anxiety. But she couldn’t go after him—two guards stood outside Lusi’s room, making it painfully clear that Anna wasn’t allowed anywhere near it.
