"You're always so carefree, Mya. You get bullied, and then you just forget about it, not holding a grudge at all. I wonder who you take after," Grace said, kinda scolding but feeling sad about how Mya had been treated.
Mya said, "Mom, go ask Dad to come down for dinner."
"Your father's still caught up in a meeting; he won't be back until late," replied Grace.
Ever since the company was severely depleted by Luke, it was in a weakened state. Only when Madelyn extended a helping hand under the name of Jardin Corporation during the crisis that the Harper Nutritional Enterprise was saved from ruin.
Mya's parents had thought Luke was an honest man and believed that Mya's marriage to him would help the company. However, they didn't expect his greed. Not only did he and his family swindle a lot of company money, but they also tried to take over the company entirely.
Now, as Mya's parents were getting older and the company was struggling, they worried about what would happen to Mya after they were gone, especially if the company ended up in the hands of strangers.
During this time, Mya stayed home, often talking on the phone with Madelyn. Mya lay on the floor, holding the phone with one hand and rubbing her big belly with the other. She told Madelyn, "My baby's been so good recently, not causing me any trouble. I can even eat two more portions of Mediterranean rice than usual now. How is Dal? Is he being good?"
On the other end of the phone call, Madelyn, in her room, felt an indescribable feeling. She truly envied Mya; no matter what happened, Mya always managed to stay happy, never letting anything weigh on her mind.
'If Mya decides to keep the baby, I'll respect her decision. As long as she's willing to accept it, at least the child... will be her own flesh and blood. And I...' Madelyn thought.
Madelyn replied, "Dal has been good, not giving me any trouble."
"Madelyn... who do you think the baby will take after it's born? I hope it doesn't turn out like that bad seed. It should be more like me," said Mya.
"Mya, you need to get enough rest. Make sure you don't catch a cold, okay?" advised Madelyn.
"Don't worry, I'm all bundled up," Mya assured her.
After a few more exchanges, Madelyn ended the call.
