For the past two days, Anna had stayed home with Liam. She still didn’t have enough strength to return to work. Her body was still weak, but it was her mind that felt even more exhausted after everything that had come to light.

At the moment, Anna sat by the swimming pool, her gaze fixed blankly on the calm surface of the water while her thoughts wandered aimlessly. Every now and then, her hand moved to gently caress her still-flat stomach, as if seeking comfort from the tiny life growing insid

    Anna slowly opened her eyes. The morning light filtering through the curtains made her squint for a moment. When she realized she was still in the guest room, she immediately sat up.She had apparently fallen asleep there with Elena the night before.“I fell asleep here,” Anna murmured, rubbing her sleepy face.“I was actually going to wake you up last night, but your husband told me to let you sleep,” Elena said. She had just finished showering, and her hair was still slightly damp.Anna let out a small sigh and smiled.“Okay. I’m going back to our room.”She got out of bed and headed toward the master bedroom to find Liam.As soon as she opened the door, she saw Liam standing in front of the mirror, putting on his shirt. As usual, he already looked ready to leave for work.“Liam, what time did you get home last night? Sorry, I fell asleep in the guest room,” Anna said.Liam turned around. A faint smile immediately appeared on his face when he saw his wife.“I got home around ten. It

    For the past two days, Anna had stayed home with Liam. She still didn’t have enough strength to return to work. Her body was still weak, but it was her mind that felt even more exhausted after everything that had come to light.At the moment, Anna sat by the swimming pool, her gaze fixed blankly on the calm surface of the water while her thoughts wandered aimlessly. Every now and then, her hand moved to gently caress her still-flat stomach, as if seeking comfort from the tiny life growing inside her.“Anna.”The familiar voice made her look up.“Why are you back already? Weren’t you still out of town?” Anna asked, clearly surprised to see Elena.“Your wonderful husband gave me the day off,” Elena replied brightly. “Come on, don’t sit out here by yourself. Let’s go somewhere more comfortable.”She reached out her hand and helped Anna to her feet.Anna eventually led Elena into the family room, where the larger sofa gave them plenty of space to sit comfortably without making Anna feel t

    “Mom… Dad, please, don’t throw me out,” Lusi pleaded, her voice trembling. Tears streamed down her cheeks. “You’ve been my parents for twenty-five years. Don’t you love me?”Renata stared at Lusi, her eyes filled with anger and pain. For twenty-five years, she had raised Lusi with nothing but love. She had given her a home, cared for her, and treated her as her own daughter.Yet all of that had come crashing down the moment she learned the truth—that Lusi was not her biological daughter.“I truly hate your parents! So now you have to feel what my daughter has been feeling all these years, Lusi!” Renata shouted, her voice shaking with rage. “Because of your parents, my daughter had to suffer!”Renata shoved Lusi out of the house. Lusi nearly lost her balance, but she quickly turned around and reached for Renata’s hand.“Please, Mom… I have nowhere else to go if you throw me out,” she begged desperately.“I don’t care.”Those three words hurt far more than Renata’s shove.Lusi fell sile

    “I want to go home,” Anna murmured.Liam glanced at Matilda, silently asking for her opinion. Matilda gave him a small nod.“We’re going home today,” Liam said, gently brushing his fingers along Anna’s cheek.After saying that, Liam took out his phone and called someone. He asked Kenzo to arrange everything for Anna’s discharge and their journey home.Not long after, Kenzo arrived with a wheelchair. By then, Anna had already changed into fresh clothes.“Come on, sweetheart. Let me help you into the wheelchair,” Liam said.“I can walk on my own, Liam. I don’t need a wheelchair,” Anna protested.“I know. I’m just worried about you,” Liam explained gently.Anna finally gave in. Liam carefully lifted her into his arms and carried her over to the wheelchair before settling her down.Matilda and Jonathan stayed by her side, unwilling to leave until they knew Anna was safely on her way home.As Liam pushed Anna’s wheelchair through the hospital corridors, several nurses and doctors who happe

    “Renata, you’re still recovering. Wait until you’re completely better,” Efendi said, trying to stop his wife. “How can I possibly wait?” Renata looked at her husband, her eyes already filling with tears. “I want to see my daughter.” Her voice trembled. “All this time… the child we hurt, the child we even abused, turned out to be our own daughter.” Tears began streaming down her cheeks. “I have to see Anna right now.” Efendi fell silent. He knew there was no point trying to stop his wife anymore. “All right,” he finally relented. “But you’re going in a wheelchair. I’ll push you.” Renata nodded quickly. A few days earlier, Renata had been involved in an accident with Lusi. That accident had ultimately brought to light a secret that had remained hidden for years. Lusi was not their biological daughter. Anna was. At first, neither Renata nor Efendi could believe it. How could their daughter have been switched with someone else? But the more they uncovered, the harde

    Anna slowly began to regain consciousness. Her eyelids fluttered before finally opening. Her vision was still blurry, but the first person she saw was Liam. The moment he realized she was awake, Liam immediately leaned closer. His face was filled with concern, as if he hadn’t truly relaxed for even a second since the accident. “Honey, how are you feeling? Does anything hurt?” Liam asked anxiously. Anna still felt weak. But before she could think about herself, one thing immediately came to mind. “Our baby?” Panic crept into her voice. “Our baby is fine. Don’t worry,” Liam reassured her gently. He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead, trying to calm her. The moment she heard his words, Anna let out a breath of relief. The tension that had been gripping her chest slowly began to fade. Liam carefully wrapped his arms around her, as though he was afraid even the slightest wrong movement might cause her pain. “Anna… sweetheart, you’re awake?” Matilda’s v

    “Miss Anna, it’s time for dinner,” Ferdi said as he knocked politely on her door.“Yes, just a moment,” Anna replied. She hurried to smooth her hair before opening the door.“Sir and Madam are already waiting in the dining room,” Ferdi continued. “Please, allow me to escort you.”Anna nodded and fo

    A light drizzle welcomed Anna as she arrived in the city—a city far from the painful memories she was running from, far from the names and faces she’d tried to bury even though their shadows still lingered. The wet pavement reflected the glow of streetlights, and a sharp, cold wind cut through her c

    The DJ’s music pounded so hard it made the floor vibrate. Neon lights flickered wildly across the ceiling while Anna sat slumped at the bar, staring blankly at the glass in her hand.“Anna, are you drunk?” Elena asked, her voice tight with worry—the same friend Anna had called earlier while half-so

    “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
