Arsen did not answer Lily. He pulled the blanket up to cover both of their bodies, then drew his wife into a firm embrace.

"Let's talk about something else," Arsen said.

"You're always like this, evading whenever it comes to personal matters," Lily protested. "I am your wife, yet it seems true—you don't love me."

"I love you, and I am terrified of losing you."

Lily gasped softly, feeling an unfamiliar thrumming in her chest.

She remained silent, staring up at Arsen's face, completely a

    In the dining room...Lily sat with Risha, enjoying the tea and cakes she had brought along.They chatted about Lily's pregnancy."Are you still experiencing morning sickness often?" Risha asked. "Have you started craving anything yet?""Um... I rarely feel nauseous anymore, Mom," Lily answered, then took a sip of her tea. "Cravings? I'm not sure. It seems our baby isn't too demanding, though lately I just want to cling to my husband all the time.""It's good that it isn't happening too often now," Risha replied. "What kind of craving is that anyway? Mom is certain that's merely your excuse—I know very well how completely whipped you are over Arsen."Lily laughed, her cheeks instantly flushing crimson with embarrassment."So, when is your next check-up scheduled?" Risha asked next."Next week," Lily answered."Oh... right, I heard Monica was hospitalized." A trace of sorrow flickered across Risha's face. Even though her relationship with Monica had grown strained, there was no denying

    Arsen couldn't hide his fond amusement toward Lily. He planted playful, affectionate kisses all over her cheeks until Lily squirmed, begging him to stop.Arsen laughed—a laugh he had never thought would return to his life. He then looked at Lily, who was pouting as a result of his antics."Go sit down first, breakfast will be ready in a moment," Arsen said.Lily nodded and sat down, her eyes continuously fixed on Arsen's back. Wandering thoughts of a suggestive nature suddenly crossed her mind, and she started when Arsen abruptly turned to look at her.Arsen walked over, setting a plate of freshly prepared breakfast in front of Lily."Bon appétit," Lily said before digging into the breakfast her husband had made."Mm... I'm so happy. Could anyone possibly be luckier than me?" Lily spoke, looking at Arsen, who was also having his breakfast."There is. Can't you see him?" Arsen countered, pointing to himself.Lily bit her lip to suppress a smile. When the usually cold Arsen acted like t

    Lily pursed her lips. "You already know my bad habits by heart, so there's no need for me to mention them," she said.Arsen chuckled, straightening his posture before cupping Lily's cheeks with both hands."You really are adorable. Now go take a shower, and I'll prepare dinner for us."Lily furrowed her brow, watching Arsen's back as he got out of bed and headed toward the bathroom.Why did he give all the servants time off? How strange, Lily whispered to herself.She ultimately let Arsen leave the bedroom to do what he had promised.Lily didn't dawdle in the bathroom. She quickly showered, changed into fresh clothes, and headed downstairs toward the kitchen in search of Arsen.Lily felt a bit uneasy; in a mansion this massive, it was now just her and Arsen alone. She walked briskly to the kitchen, breathing a sigh of relief upon seeing her husband standing there chopping vegetables."Let me help wash the vegetables," Lily offered.Arsen nodded, then returned to preparing the meal.Li

    Lily rose from her seat. She could not bring herself to continue the conversation, unable to bear the sight of Rani, yet determined not to soften and make the mistake of forgiving Sonia."I apologize, Auntie, but I have to go home. My husband is waiting. Please head home, and do take care on the road."Lily offered a slight bow of her head after speaking. She let out a breath as she walked toward Arsen, who was already waiting for her inside the car."Let's go home," Lily said. She closed the car door, keeping her eyes on Arsen, who was staring right back at her."What is it?" Lily asked, puzzled."You didn't cry or decide to forgive Sonia, did you?"Lily shook her head at Arsen's suspicious gaze, then replied, "I won't forgive Sonia; it's just that I feel sorry for her mother."Arsen could only sigh, then started the car's engine to drive away from the company grounds.Lily glanced into the side mirror, watching Rani's frail reflection walking out of the building.Noticing that Lily

    Thomas slipped his phone into his pocket after sending the message to Hendra. He then headed to Arsen's office carrying the documents Arsen needed."Hendra just reported that he hasn't obtained any further information regarding Juna yet, Sir," Thomas said."Mm..." Arsen replied while reviewing the files. "How is the progress on Sonia's case?" Arsen then asked."Her case file has been submitted, so she won't be able to escape the grip of the law," Thomas explained in reply.Arsen gave a few slow nods."Have you prepared what I asked for?" Arsen asked, looking up at Thomas standing before his desk. He slid over the documents he had just finished signing."Rest assured, Sir, I have prepared everything. Please enjoy your weekend together with Miss Lily," Thomas answered. "If you need any assistance while Aunt Jess is away, please don't hesitate to contact me," he added.Meanwhile, on that same day, Arya arrived at the police station to provide a statement regarding his involvement in the

    Arsen sat in his office chair after Anthony left. He remained quiet, turning their earlier conversation over in his mind.Only when Thomas entered did Arsen begin to share his thoughts."I have my doubts about the evidence Anthony provided.""Doubts? What do you mean, Sir?" Thomas furrowed his brow, perplexed."The figure in the video and the recorded voice isn't Arya. Just like how he framed Lily's father using AI technology, it seems the real culprit did the exact same thing."Thomas was taken aback, immediately jumping to conclusions. "Did Mr. Anthony do it?"Arsen shook his head, maintaining an air of total calm."No. You know full well Anthony suffered massive losses as well. Weren't you the one who calculated the price per liter of raw materials for that premium skincare product?" Arsen replied.Thomas nodded. "True. It's impossible that Mr. Anthony would do that; he has no quarrel with you, aside from his mother taking a liking to Miss Lily."Thomas pressed his lips tightly tog
