"What's up?" Haley’s voice was weary and icy."That prenatal medication I gave you, did you actually take it or not?" Kieran spoke in a tense, even accusing tone.Haley’s chest grew chilly and her fingers became rigid. "Not just yet. What's wrong, and why?”Kieran’s eyebrows furrowed, and he was on the verge of yelling at her, but then he recalled something. It was his birthday tomorrow.Perhaps she hadn't had time to call since she was out getting ready for a surprise for him. He suppressed his rage and contrived a grin. "It's alright. All I'm concerned about is you. Please use caution when you're out there. I'll hold off until you return home."Haley chuckled softly. "Tomorrow? I'm not likely to return by then. It's quite a distance."For a moment, he froze, yet he was unaware of anything amiss. "This time, where did you go? You are aware that you are pregnant. You really don't have to spend a lot of time planning surprises for me.”So at last he realized she was expecting? Suddenl

"You ought to give her a call and see how she's doing,” Nadine reluctantly reminded him, "She's still pregnant, and we don't want anything to happen to her."Kieran dismissively shook his head. "She'll be alright. Haley has always had a keen mind. One on the way back, some individuals attempted to rob her after she traveled. She only lost a few thousand dollars in cash, but she was still able to save herself."After that, Nadine simply sighed softly and said nothing more.Just as he opened his mouth to continue, his phone rang. His eyes brightened as soon as he saw "Honey" on the screen. "Are you back, honey? "Where are you at this moment?"On the other end, Haley’s voice sounded harsh and raspy. "Kieran, I'm... on my way home."He recognized the odd tone right away. “Have you been shedding tears?”"We'll talk when I get there." The line was terminated by Haley’s raspy voice before she abruptly hung up.The interior of Vance' car abruptly became silent as soon as the call ended.Th

To be honest, Kieran felt rather humiliated and dismissed. It was obvious that Haley no longer had the same level of concern for him. However, all of the allegations and grievances he had been prepared to level at her became stuck in his throat when he met her eyes and saw how hot and stubborn they appeared, but also how much hurt seemed to be lying there. She had actually become slimmer and darker in a matter of days, and her voice sounded raspy. "I... Of course I don't look down on it!" Almost reflexively, Kieran swallowed his annoyance and hurried to take Haley’s hand. "What matters most to me is that you traveled to the mountains for me! Even though you were ill, you made an effort to find me something. All I want is for you to return safely. Nothing is more important than your well-being." Haley maintained a calm tone as she gazed into his eyes. "I knew you weren't that superficial. I'm going upstairs to rest because I'm exhausted." Kieran parted his lips but remained silent

“Yes, I will schedule a meeting time for the two of you. After organizing all of your works for him to view, you two can haggle over a price." Jules gave this in his most formal manner, but he quickly reverted to his own laid-back demeanor. "Damn, Ley, you're about to make some serious cash." Haley felt a twinge of interest, but she couldn't help but laugh. "Who the hell is this guy, anyway, Jules? Why is he so fixated on my work?" “It's all extremely mysterious because the buyer has been sending his assistant to handle everything. To be honest, I have no idea who it is.” Jules responded. "All fine, let's get together in a week. outside Vest city’s diamond Garden. Simply inform him.” She locked down the specifics without giving them too much thought. Her strained nerves were greatly relieved by this phone call, and she fell asleep without even realizing it after hanging up. ***** Kieran, Nadine, and their group would frequently congregate at Eva Lounge. It was after midn

Kieran was difficult to get into the back seat of the automobile with Nadine and Haley. “Are you good?” Nadine asked her. Haley gave a headshake. "No, I'm alright. Thank you, Nadine.” "Don't mention it," Nadine said with a smile. "This moron made a huge mistake tonight. I'm sorry you had to go this far in the middle of the night while pregnant. Are you available before the end of the month, Haley? I want to go out to dinner with you." Kieran had dominated every conversation she'd ever had with Nadine, so she was totally unprepared for this unexpected request. "Huh? Why?” "No significant cause. I simply believe that you've had a difficult time,” she appeared to want to say more but restrained herself, and her eyes flickered with something Haley couldn't quite decipher. Haley dismissed him nonchalantly, but she secretly believed that this supper would never take place. She would have left their social circle at the end of the month nonetheless. After advising her to drive care
