Ethan’s office was still thick with tension that hadn’t fully dissipated since morning. But now, the atmosphere felt denser—like something was waiting to explode.He stood by the window of his office, his suit still perfectly in place, but his posture no longer carried its usual calm. The phone in his hand vibrated again, and this time, he answered immediately without even checking the caller ID.“Yes.”The voice on the other end came faster than usual.“Ethan, you need to hear this,” Valen’s voice cut through without pause. “That woman—Auri—has completely lost her sense of place.”Ethan didn’t respond right away. He closed his eyes briefly, holding back whatever was beginning to rise inside him.“What now?” he asked at last, his voice low.“We went to her shop,” Valen continued, her tone tight with agitation. “And do you know w

The tension in Auri’s abdomen returned—stronger this time—making her instinctively hold her breath and press a hand to her side.Gia, being the closest, reacted immediately. But Mrs. Sarah moved first, her steps quick yet controlled.“That’s enough—sit down,” she said firmly, leaving no room for refusal.“I’m fine…” Auri tried, though her voice came out strained.“This isn’t up for negotiation,” Mrs. Sarah replied shortly. She glanced toward the back of the shop. “Where’s your resting room?”Gia pointed at once. “In the back, ma’am.”Without another word, Mrs. Sarah helped Auri walk toward the small room behind the shop. Lucas followed at a measured distance, making sure everything was under control without intruding too far.The door closed softly behind them, leaving the simple room wrapped in a quieter, steadier

Morning arrived without much sound, yet it felt heavier than usual. Sunlight slipped through the narrow gap in the curtains of Nocture’s back room, falling softly across the cool wooden floor.Auri had been awake for a while, but she remained lying on her side, one hand tucked beneath her head while the other rested gently over her stomach. There was no pain—just a faint pressure, a quiet reminder that she wasn’t alone… and that whatever she was about to face was no longer just about her.She took a deep breath, then slowly pushed herself up. Her body still felt tired, though not as weak as before. When her feet touched the floor, she paused for a moment, gathering the fragments of awareness still settling inside her before finally standing.Outside, Gia was already busy. Her footsteps were light, occasionally accompanied by the soft scrape of a vase being moved or the sound of water being poured.“You’re up earlier than usual,” Gia said without turning w

The courtroom hadn’t fully settled back into silence when Ethan’s lawyer rose again—this time with a more assertive stance, as if ready to push beyond the mere presentation of facts. His tone remained measured, but the way he looked at Auri had changed—sharper, more deliberate.“Ms. Auri,” he began, “you stated that you were not negligent as a wife. However, is it true that you spent more time at your business than at home?”Auri stood again, taking a slow breath before answering. “I managed my time according to what was needed.”“My question is simple,” the lawyer cut in. “Were you more often at your shop, or at home?”Auri paused for a fraction of a second.“At the shop,” she answered.The lawyer gave a small nod, as if he had found an opening. “So you admit that your work took more of your time than your household responsibilities?”“I didn’t say that,” Auri replied, still calm.“But that is the reality, isn’t it?” he presse

Their steps carried them farther from the courthouse, lighter now—not because the burden had lessened, but because Auri had chosen not to look back anymore. The air outside felt warmer, a quiet contrast to the cold tension of the courtroom they had just left behind.Lucas walked beside her—not too close, but close enough to make sure her steps stayed steady. Gia remained on her other side, casting occasional glances she didn’t bother to hide.“I didn’t like the way he spoke,” Lucas muttered suddenly, his voice low but edged with restrained irritation.Auri glanced at him briefly, then looked ahead again. “That’s not new.”“No,” Lucas replied quickly. “But that doesn’t make it acceptable.”Gia nodded in agreement. “He was clearly trying to provoke you.”Lucas let out a quiet scoff. “It’s more than that. He doesn’t even care how it
