Semua Bab She's Moved on With Someone New: Bab 91 - Bab 100

Nonetheless, she seriously couldn't stomach anything."I want to have something light.""Okay, I'll go make something for you."When Margaret took the chicken soup out, Hades' brows furrowed. "She's not eating?""Ms. Jacinto says she wants something light."Hades fell into silence for a moment, then instructed, "Make something lighter for her. Next time, ask her for her preferences before cooking.""Understood," Margaret hurriedly replied and went into the kitchen.Hades took a last look at the closed bedroom door before entering his study.As a lighter alternative to chicken soup, Margaret ended up making a clear vegetable soup for Alanna.Although Alanna still had no appetite, she relented and took a few sips.It was only then she had to admit that Hades was right. She had to take care of her health, and no one would feel sorry for her if she didn't cherish herself.As usual, Hades was rational and clear-headed.A bitter taste lingered in Alanna's mouth at the thought of

Eyes fixed on the ceiling, Alanna replied, "I'm fine. I'm just feeling a little lethargic.""That's normal. Do you know how much blood you lost last night?"Alanna didn't know, but she was aware that she had started bleeding in the car."Is Hades taking good care of you?"Alanna hummed, saying, "He is. He even hired a caregiver to look after me.""Oh." Chelsey sounded surprised. "He does have a bit of a conscience."Alanna chuckled. If it were due to contractual obligations, Hades had fulfilled his part. Not only did he not blame her for concealing the truth, but he'd also hired a caregiver for her."Rest at home. I'll come visit when I have time.""Okay."After chatting for a while, Chelsey suddenly mentioned, "By the way, our high school has an upcoming reunion party. You'll finish your postpartum recovery when the time comes. Should we go together?"Upon the reminder, Alanna recalled that there had been discussions about a high school reunion in the WhatsApp group chat rec

Hades would ask, "Why are you making desserts again?"Back then, Alanna still had hopes and expectations for their relationship. Whenever he asked, she would always answer with a hint of anticipation, "Because I like sweet stuff."However, the next time Hades saw desserts on the table, he would repeat the same question.Later, Alanna stopped making desserts altogether, and even the new dishes she learned were tailored to Hades' taste.Now, three years later, he had asked yet again.Hades glanced at her. "You have to express your likes. Otherwise, others won't know."Alanna smiled stiffly.Expressing likes was only effective for those who meant something to another. For those who didn't matter, there was no point in saying anything.Alanna wordlessly concentrated on eating.Hades didn't speak again either. It seemed like it was a casual remark.After finishing the meal, he said, "I've arranged a temporary replacement for your position. Take a month off to recover before return

Hades raised an eyebrow, glancing at Alanna.Alanna's lips twitch. Before she could say anything, Melanie's voice came from the entrance. "Hades."Hades walked toward the door. "Why are you here? Aren't you afraid of being seen?"His voice was unusually gentle as he spoke. No matter how many times Alanna heard it, it aroused uneasiness in her."Can't I visit a friend? Besides, I'm not here to see you. I came specifically to see Ms. Jacinto."While saying that, Melanie entered the apartment without waiting for an invitation."Ms. Jacinto, are you alright? I thought about it after I went home yesterday. I felt that I should come over to formally apologize to you. So, I took the liberty to visit. I hope you don't mind."Alanna let out a bitter laugh; she was in no mood to entertain Melanie's pretentious act. "Just say that you're sorry. I don't need to hear such grandiose phrases."Melanie instantly looked aggrieved. However, this time, she surprisingly didn't say much and proceed

Melanie's harsh words touched a nerve in Alanna.Yes, she had lost her baby. But even if the baby had survived, Hades wouldn't allowed her to keep it anyway.The realization hurt so much that she felt suffocated.Melanie, however, wasn't satisfied. She leaned in close to Alanna's ear and continued, "Alanna, don't you understand by now? You were just a fuck buddy. Do you really think you can rise in status by having his child?"With a sneer, she added, "Guess what would happen if it were me who got pregnant instead?"If it were Melanie, Alanna knew without a doubt that Hades would be extremely caring.Alanna's hands clenched tightly, her pale fingertips trembling slightly. She raised her head to meet Melanie's gaze, wearing a smile and making her tone seem indifferent as she responded, "Well, Ms. Smith, you have your work cut out for you."Even after all this time you've been back, Hades hasn't shown any intention of reconciling with you. You still have a long way to go before ge
