As he studied her, his gaze suddenly locked onto her figure.

After a long silence, he spoke two words. “You’re fatter.”

Mia’s spine snapped straight. She swallowed hard.

n nearly a month, she had gained ten pounds.

Her limbs hadn’t changed much, but her figure was noticeably fuller. She couldn’t fit into her old pants anymore; not only was the waist too tight, but she couldn’t even pull them over her hips.

During those few days in the Logistics Department, several former colleagues from the secretarial office had lready commented on her weight gain.

And now even Ethan had noticed…

Metabolism slows down as you get older. Sitting in an office all day makes it easy to put on weight.”

Her fame excuse didn’t seem to trigger any suspicion in Ethan. After all, he had just made a passing comment; he lidn’t actually care about her weight.

The streetlights had just hummed to life, casting a soft glow over Mia.

Her face was pale and healthy, and her dark hair shimmered. She looked much better than when she was thinner.

Ethan shifted his gaze, draped his coat over his arm, and walked past her toward the villa.

It was just ordinary small talk, but it had Mia’s heart racing in her throat.

Once the sound of the front door closing reached her, Mia let out a long sigh of relief. She got back in the car and

Irove home.

With temperatures set to rise over the coming week, Mia dug through her wardrobe. She tried on every piece of lothing she owned, but none of them fit.

The next day was the weekend. she made plans to go shopping with Nina Torres to buy a few outfits and visit Carly at the hospital.

Vina had returned to work. She was livestreaming every day, her schedule completely flipped.

It’s been two nights since I’ve held Toby to sleep.”

Mentioning her son, Nina sounded heartbroken. She didn’t want to be a “slacker mom.” Her original plan was to give him all the time he needed, providing him with the best companionship.

But because Carly was sick, she had to return to work immediately.

Guilt made the usually easygoing Nina wear a long face.

Toby was over three months old now. His once-wrinkled, red face had filled out into a soft, pale, and delicate ittle face that everyone fell in love with. He was at his most adorable stage, and Nina wished she could stay by his side twenty-four hours a day.

Even though it was cold, Nina brought him along for the shopping trip.

Mia looked down at the chubby little baby, her heart melting.

Hang in there. Once we’ve saved enough money, you can take some time off to be with him.”

She knew words of comfort wouldn’t do much.

ust as she had been forced to stay, Nina kept saying they could leave once they had enough money. But Mia’s ense of crisis only grew stronger the longer she stayed by Ethan’s side.

Nina glanced at her. Seeing Mia’s furrowed brow and the faint shadow of worry on her face, she let out a long igh.

Sisters in struggle… forget it. Let’s head upstairs. There’s a specialty store for expectant and new mothers up there. They sell professional attire; we can definitely find something that fits you.”

Mia nodded and followed her into the elevator.
