Chapter 12

Penulis: Green Pick
From that day onward, Frank never bothered me again.

I originally assumed he was being tactful, but I later learned from reading the news that he simply had his hands full dealing with his company's crisis.

I looked over at Andrew, who was currently yawning and snuggling sleepily into the couch like an oversized puppy.

He told me that painting had always been his hobby. He liked painting and a peaceful life, which was why he had settled in this small town and usually paid little attention to company affairs.

I still found it hard to imagine him as the president of a large business conglomerate like Fernandez Group.

After returning home that day, I had been on edge for a long time. I feared that Frank would find me again and perhaps even use extreme methods to take me back with him.

    Darcy's POVMeanwhile, I had already boarded a plane back to my hometown.The ups and downs I had gone through lately left me physically and mentally exhausted. I simply wanted to have a good rest before considering my future.After the plane landed, I ordered a cup of coffee at a coffee shop near the airport. That was when I suddenly spotted an artist painting on an easel in a corner.The man had slender fingers and was wearing a loose, linen-colored shirt. Two of his shirt buttons were left casually undone, revealing his delicate collarbones.I couldn't help but take a closer look at him, only to unexpectedly meet his gaze.I felt slightly embarrassed at being caught, but I couldn't hold back my curiosity. I decided to walk over, sit down next to the man, and ask him what he was painting.He smiled and showed me his canvas, which depicted me sitting by the coffee shop's window."Sorry. I was sketching earlier. I thought it was a stunning scene, so I drew it out on canvas."H

    Frank instantly turned pale, and the guests below the stage started becoming restless.Aside from intimate photos of him and Johanna, the screen also displayed a marriage certificate as well as evidence that he and Darcy had been secretly married for many years.The name written on the certificate was clearly Darcy Cowell.Finally, the screen showed Darcy's pregnancy test report and miscarriage report.Frank's microphone fell onto the stage with a clunk, whereupon it let out an ear-piercing screech."Our child…""Turn it off! Hurry up and turn it off!" Johanna screeched from the stage. She decided to pull out the projector's power cord, which finally turned off the screen.Still, everyone present had already seen the images projected onto the screen earlier.The venue was in chaos.

He was on standby in the banquet hall early to mingle with the guests.He would occasionally glance toward the entrance, seemingly a bit distracted.For some reason, Darcy, who should have been the main character today, never responded to his message.He felt nothing but an inexplicable irritation at the thought. It lingered in his heart, refusing to go away.One of his business partners, Benjamin Rodriguez, patted him on the shoulder and exclaimed jokingly, "Congratulations, Mr. Winston! I heard you're going to introduce us to your wife today."Frank forced himself to smile, but his unease was growing stronger and stronger. "She might be stuck in traffic. She should be here soon."Right at that moment, someone suddenly affectionately clung onto his arm. He was stunned for a moment, after which he looked over expectantly.
