Three months later, Phoebe's life had returned to its usual routine. She went to class in the mornings and worked at the company in the afternoons and evenings. Her life was calm, filled with purpose every day. Her parents had returned last month, and seeing them in good health brought her a sense of relief.Her heart finally settled.At home, the place no longer felt cold and empty. With her parents around, everything seemed warmer.It was the weekend, and she decided to go to the hospital by herself. After registering, she was waiting in line when she suddenly felt thirsty and decided to step out to buy a bottle of water.When she returned, she ran into the man she never wanted to see again.She stood frozen, locking eyes with him.In that moment, time seemed to freeze.Both of them were caught off guard.But neither of them showed any expression.It had been three months since the dinner party. She hadn't seen him since, and never expected to run into him here today.Neither of the

Time flew by like a fleeting shadow, and before Phoebe knew it, the seasons had changed once again.Winter had arrived quietly, though it wasn't particularly cold this year. Dressed in a simple coat with a thick, cozy scarf wrapped around her neck, Phoebe strolled leisurely down the road on her way home from the office.Her stomach had a slight swell—so subtle that it would be easy for others to miss unless they looked closely.Three months ago, with a heart full of trepidation and resolve, she had lain on the operating table, ready to endure the cold instruments and terminate the life growing inside her. But the doctor's words had struck her like a thunderclap, shattering her resolve.Due to a previous miscarriage, her uterine lining was now dangerously thin. Another abortion would greatly diminish her chances of conceiving in the future.The doctor's tone was calm, seemingly indifferent to her decision, but those words unleashed a storm within Phoebe.Fear surged like a tidal wave,

Gavin continued, "I've known Phoebe for some time now. I haven't visited you before, but today, I came to discuss our marriage plans.""Marriage?" Anila widened her eyes in surprise."What's going on?" Ryan asked, his face serious. "Phoebe, and what's the deal with Alex?"Anila quickly kicked Ryan, signaling him to stop talking.Gavin, however, spoke first. "Uncle, Phoebe and Alex have been separated for a while now. Phoebe didn't want to mention it out of embarrassment, but in fact, we've been together for quite a while."Ryan and Anila exchanged a look, still too shocked to respond."Phoebe, why didn't you say anything?""Forget it, it's your business, and we can't interfere," Anila said. "But you're not even graduated yet. Getting married this soon... that's not going to work.""Aunt, I've thought about that too. But the thing is, Phoebe is pregnant with my child. That's why I've decided we should get married now."Ryan and Anila were stunned into silence by this unexpected revelat

It was already late when Phoebe left the company. Just as she reached the entrance, she heard someone call her name."Phoebe."She looked up to see Gavin getting out of a sports car, a smile on his face as he walked toward her.Phoebe smiled and walked toward him."How about some late-night snacks? I can take you to get some now," Gavin said, a playful smile on his lips and his eyes shining brightly like stars."I'd love to," Phoebe replied, grinning. "How about we go to a street vendor?""It's up to you."Phoebe thought for a moment before saying, "Let me think about where to go while we're in the car."After getting out of the car, Phoebe took Gavin's hand and led him toward a small food stall.The place was bustling with people, and the atmosphere was lively. Phoebe casually picked an empty spot and sat down with Gavin.Gavin looked around in surprise; he hadn't expected this place to be so crowded at night.

For the past few days, Phoebe had been diligently working on the tasks Kimberley had assigned to her before leaving the country.Her performance had been excellent. Within just a few days, she had designed several series of wedding gowns, which she sent to Kimberley for review. Kimberley was thoroughly impressed and scheduled a meeting for Sunday to discuss them further.Because of this project, Phoebe had more flexible hours and didn't need to go to the office every day. On Friday, after her classes, Gavin picked her up for dinner.After their meal, Gavin took her to a large supermarket.They headed straight to the fourth floor to browse baby products.Phoebe hadn't expected to start shopping for baby items so soon, but Gavin seemed excited, picking out quite a few things.When they finished on the fourth floor, Gavin led her to the second floor to buy sour snacks that were popular with pregnant women.Phoebe added some sour plums to
