Chapter 48 "What’s Aron up to these days?" Arthur asked Gabriel. He hadn’t seen Aron anywhere near his family lately, and he was certain the man hadn't been around the building either."The last I heard, he had a meeting scheduled with Miss Aileen’s best friend a few days ago. I don’t think he’s back in the city yet. I haven’t been able to track down Abott either," Gabriel replied. Arthur had assigned Al Abott to keep tabs on Aron, as they no longer had a clear grasp of his intentions.Arthur tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table. Even though Aron had declared he wanted the position, Arthur couldn’t help but feel suspicious. He couldn’t bring himself to trust Aron—perhaps because the only concrete thing he had on him was his interest in his fiancée.“Anyway, where’s Hilda?”His kids had classes at that hour. Normally, Hilda would visit when they were away. It puzzled him that she hadn't dropped by his office.“I overheard Aoi and Ivory talking earlier. Apparently, Miss Hilda h

Chapter 47Every time I opened my eyes, I would see Art sitting on the single chair beside the bed, holding documents—even in the middle of the night.He would glance at me and ask, "Are you okay? Do you need something to drink?"I had lost track of how many days had passed. It felt like all I ever did was eat and sleep. I felt so weak.When I opened my eyes again, it was already morning. I looked around and saw that Art was no longer there. I felt a bit sad seeing the empty chair.“He just stepped out for a quick shower.”I froze and turned my head slightly. It was Aron, standing by the veranda, looking at me blankly. He sighed before walking toward the bed.“Dad probably won’t be back for a while. Khan and the others were looking for him earlier. It seems your kids are causing trouble again. Want to sit up?”I nodded weakly. I had no strength, so Aron helped me up. I asked him what had happened over the past few days and held my head.“Dad has practically turned this room into his o

Chapter 46"Hilda."Hilda slowly opened her eyes. The door to the holding room creaked open—and there, framed by the light pouring in behind her, stood her nanny’s anxious face.“Hilda.”It was Arthur’s voice. Hilda turned her head and saw Arthur, worry etched deeply into his features, gently cupping her cheek.“Will you always make me worry like this?” he asked softly.Arthur pulled Hilda into a tight embrace. Her mind was still struggling to process everything that had happened.Without realizing it, tears began to stream down her face, and she hugged Arthur back, clinging to him.“I’m sorry,” Hilda whispered. “If I hadn’t interfered… If I had just listened to you and stayed in my room, you wouldn’t have almost died. And no one else would have died either.”Arthur paused and looked at her.“What are you saying?” he asked gently. Fiona, standing nearby, looked equally concerned and confused.Arthur helped Hilda sit up and assured her, “None of this is your fault.”“That’s what Nanny

Chapter 45“Nanny, what’s going on? Why are there so many people?” young Hilda asked as she sat on the older woman’s lap, looking out the window. From there, they could see several guests stepping out of their luxurious cars and walking toward the mansion.“It’s Miss Alica’s birthday,” the old woman replied, which made Hilda pause and look up.“Nanny? What’s a birthday?” the little girl asked curiously. A shadow of sadness crossed the nanny’s face as she softly explained, “It’s the day a person was born.”“I want a birthday too, Nanny! When is my birthday?”Hilda immediately climbed down and stood before her nanny, raising both hands in excitement. She said she wanted to wear a pretty dress too and have many people come over.The old woman gave a bittersweet smile and gently cupped Hilda’s cheek.“Alright, when your birthday comes, I’ll make you a beautiful dress,” she promised.Hilda jumped up and down with glee. In their current situation, it was already a blessing if they could eat

Chapter 44I don’t know why, but ever since the incident at the main hall, I haven’t seen Art.“Mama, is Papa busy again?” Peri asked.We were inside the playroom. Both kids were lying on the carpet, working on a puzzle together.“Maybe, honey,” I replied, glancing at Aoi, who was inside the room with Ivory.“Aoi, what’s going on outside? What’s keeping Art so busy?” I asked. It had been almost four days since I last saw Art. I hadn’t really asked around, knowing he was locked in his office and not leaving the building.“Just papers, Miss Hilda… and meetings,” Aoi answered, scratching his cheek. But he didn’t answer everything I asked.For some reason, Art had also told me to stay inside the main building and, if possible, remain in our room.It was nap time. Once the twins had fallen asleep, I quietly slipped out of the playroom. Nari followed me, saying she hadn’t seen Art come out of his room either.I went to his office and knocked. When I opened the door, I was surprised by the m

Chapter 43After my conversation with Art, I started feeling a bit better. He had a point, after all.“Mama? Are you okay now? Beryl and I got worried because you didn’t leave your room after you and Dad left during breakfast,” Peri said as he hugged my leg the moment I stepped out of the room and was greeted by my children.I knelt and looked at Beryl, meeting her eye level. I didn’t need to question what Dad did—because as a parent, there's nothing a mother or father wouldn’t do for their child.When Dad tried to force me to abort my children and I had nowhere to run, I was at my weakest. But to protect them, and to be with them, I jumped off the yacht. God knows how much I wanted to live—that’s why I ended up under the Nicastro’s care, playing hide and seek with death.“There’s nothing else I want in this lifetime but to see you grow up healthy, happy, and smart enough so that no one can abuse you or look down on you,” I whispered as I stared into my children's eyes.“What are you
