“All right, the kids are here. Let’s not discuss this now,” Nieva said with a laugh. “Where did you two manage to get these kids from, anyway? Did their parents give their consent?” 

Josiah nodded. “I’ve already spoken with their parents. They are siblings. The older sister is named Nilou, and the younger brother is named Rhizone.” 

Lysander introduced Nieva to the siblings by saying, “This is Mdm. Nieva and her daughter.” 

The voices of Nilou and Rhizone rang out in unison. “Hello, Mdm. Nieva.” 

When Nieva saw the two adorable and polite children, she immediately went up to pinch Nilou’s check. Turning to Rhizone, the boy who was carrying Nilou’s bag, she said, “You’re so young and already helping girls carry their bags. What a little gentleman you are.” 

Rhizone shyly let out a soft laugh. 

Nilou noticed a delicate little girl sleeping in the baby stroller next to her, carved as if from jade and blushed with pink. She took out a straw origami and handed it over, saying, “Mdm. Nieva, this is a gift for the baby.” 

“So sweet! I thank you on behalf of the little girl,” Nieva said. When she mentioned Aurora, a fleeting sadness passed through her eyes. 

Lysander astutely noticed and expressed her concern, asking, “You’ve prepared so much stuff. Are you planning on having Aurora stay with us for a long time?” 

Right next to the baby stroller were piles of packages, all filled with baby products. 

Upon witnessing the situation, Josiah also realized the severity of the matter. He called someone in, then turned to Nilou and Rhizone, saying, “Play here for a while. If you need anything, just tell this lady. I’ll be back shortly.” 

The two children obediently nodded. 

After arranging for the staff to take care of the three children, Josiah and Lysander led Nieva into a small room on one side to continue their conversation.

on her face. She sank onto the couch, her hand instinctively rising to support her forehead. The cascading curls that fell around her face did little to conceal the faint shadows under her eyes. 

It was clear from her appearance that she hadn’t slept well the previous night. 

Lysander always remembered their first meeting and Nieva’s vibrant and cheerful. demeanor. Seeing her then, worn out to such an extent, was like looking at her past self, causing an involuntary tightening in her heart. 

Josiah suspected that the person who had pushed Nieva to this point was none. other than Aurora’s 

father, Elio. In a deep voice, he asked, “Are you really planning to take your parents abroad?” 

Nieva took a deep breath, sweeping her hair behind her ear. “I knew I couldn’t hide it from you. 

“What are you planning to do?” 

“I’ll first send my parents abroad to settle down. As for Elio and I, due to the death of his first love, our issues have gone beyond what a divorce could resolve.” 

Lysander said, “Didn’t he leave his first love to marry you in the first place? If there’s anyone to blame, it should be him for treachery. How dare he put the blame on you and Aurora?” 

“Because by then, he had already regretted his decisions, ready to abandon. everything and divorce me to return to that girl. However, I–I found out I was pregnant. I couldn’t bear to get an abortion, so I decided to have the child.” 

Lysander choked up. 

Nieva added, “With a child involved, everything changes. The girl might be rather traditional. If it was just a simple divorce, it would only mean two people parting ways. She might have reconciled with Elio. But with a child in the picture, she refused. She felt she couldn’t tear apart someone’s family or separate Elio from his daughter, so- 

“That’s why Elio harbors such resentment toward Aurora.” 

Nieva took a deep breath, wiping her face. “What’s done is done. There’s no use in talking about it now. This child is my child, my own flesh and blood. I must protect her. As for Elio, he has been holding something back for a long time now.

The death of his first love is like the final straw that broke the camel’s back. He’s bound to take revenge.” 

Lysander’s heart clenched in an instant. “You…” 

“His rage has completely consumed his rationality. It needs an outlet. There’s no escaping for me, but my parents and daughter can’t be the casualties of his fury.” 

The progression was undeniably swift. The last time they met at the resort, Elio was incessantly saying he had matters to discuss with Nieva. Yet, unexpectedly, things had escalated to this extent in the blink of an eye. 

There was no greater sorrow than a heart that had given up. Through the bitter smile playing at the corners of Nieva’s lips, Lysander saw the wounds that marriage had inflicted on her heart, leaving it scarred and battered.. 

Lysander then asked gently, “You merely gave birth to a child. It’s not your fault. What right does Elio have to-” 

“Objectively speaking, that’s the case. However, human emotions are often subjective. Where there’s favoritism, there’s also hatred. A resolution between Elio and I is inevitable.” 

“Is divorce not an option?” Lysander asked. “Once you guys get a divorce, he will have no connection to the child. If he wants the company, he can have it. He’s achieved his goal. He’s got everything he wanted. Isn’t that enough?”
