Aurelia shook her head, feeling a pang of sadness. She had missed out on a father’s love herself.

she was an outsider.
How could she let her child go through the same thing?
The thought alone suffocated her.
Aurelia knew all too well that having such a terrible father was worse than not having one at all.
Amber’s words about Chelsea’s situation resonated with Aurelia.
According to Chelsea’s recent pregnancy test, she was not even three months pregnant. Weren’t they afraid of any accidents?
“Amber, I have a question. What are the risks if someone has frequent sexual activity within the first three months of pregranny

“Exercise restraint, if you please!”
Aurelia found it difficult to articulate. “Not 1, but… Chelsea.”
Amber comprehended the situation. “It depends on individual circumstances. Medically, it’s not recommended because there are indeed risks. Creating a life is not easy. No parent wants anything to happen to their child.”
Amber warned Aurelia to be patient for the next three months,
Aurelia felt embarrassed.
- ed. She wasn’t that desperate, and she was already trying to avoid Nathaniel.
That evening, Aurelia went to a yoga studio. Zack had arranged for her to become a premium member.
Aurelia joined a prenatal class and found the experience quite enjoyable. The serene environment, the gentle music, and the mett
all made her feel comfortable and relaxed.
Since signing the divorce agreement with Nathaniel, she had been on edge and needed this kind of relaxation.
It was the first time she felt that Nathaniel had done something right.
Aurelia knew Nathaniel well enough. He wouldn’t be bored enough to check on her yoga classes, so her secret should be safe.
After leaving the yoga studio, Aurelia drove straight home.
Nathaniel’s Bentley was parked in the yard.
Aurelia remembered what he had said in the morning, and her mood instantly became complicated.
Aurelia parked the car and sat there for a while.
The sky was dark, without a single star, much like her marriage with Nathaniel, devoid of any light.
After a while, she got out of the car, just like those men who chose to sit in their cars and smoke after work because they didn’t want to

She was now afraid of this home.
Aurelia tiptoed into the house. When she didn’t see Nathaniel in the living room, she immediately felt relieved.
The door to the study was slightly alar, and a faint light seeped through the crack. Aurelia could faintly hear Nathaniel tapping on the keyboard. As she passed by the study, she quickly made her way back to the guest room where she had been sleeping for the past few
days.
The room had been tidied up, and a new set of hedding had been put on the bed.
It was so clean that there wasn’t even a single pillow.
She suddenly felt that something was off and opened the closet. As expected, it was empty.
Aurelia clenched her fist, leaving faint imprints on her palm from her nails.
All her things had been moved back to the main bedroom.
On the master bed lay a beautifully wrapped gift box. Aurelia didn’t need to open it before realizing that it contained a designer handbag.
It was Nathaniel’s habit to give her a handbag after their intimate moments. Sometimes, if he forgot, he would buy an expensive one as compensation.

Aurelia went to the walk–in closet to pack up the clothes she had been wearing recently, preparing to return to the gathered a pile of clothes and turned around to see Nathaniel leaning against the wall, dressed in casual home attire, watching her.
Nathaniel looked at her as if he had caught a thief stealing.
-I don’t
t give you permission to move out,” he said softly.
The threat hidden in his short sentence made Aurelia take a step back involuntarily. His words were not a negotiation but a command.
The atmosphere became tense for a few seconds.
“Don’t you want to open the bag I gave you?”
Aurelia glanced at the walk–in closet, which was filled with bags–more than one would find in a store. Sometimes, she even wondered if Nathaniel could sell these bags and live a luxurious life if he ever went bankrupt.
“You u don’t need to buy them anymore. I won’t carry them anyway,” she replied.
Nathaniel raised an eyebrow. Zack suggested this method. He thought all girls liked handbags.
Apparently, she didn’t.
“Aurella, come here,” he said, his tone softening as he looked at the woman he had frightened. He could still coax her as long as she didn’t
mention divorce.
Aurelia asked cautiously, “What do you want?”
What happened in the morning must never happen again.
Aurelia stood still. Nathaniel walked over quickly and pulled her into his arms.

“Aurelia, sleep with me, like before,” he said.
Aurelia knew he was referring to the time before Chelsea returned.
The house had witnessed all their lovemaking, including but not limited to the one in the bathroom, by the window, and in the wat close Whenever they did it, he belonged to her alone physically.
“Nathaniel, don’t you want Chelsea anymore?”
Nathaniel gently stroked her hair that had fallen on her shoulder.
“When do I say I wanted her?”
Aurelias heart skipped a beat.
It felt as if Nathaniel was explaining himself to her, giving her the illusion that he had fallen in love with her.
I will handle her. You don’t need to worry about it. She won’t affect us, Nathaniel said
His words stirred something in Aurelia.
unclear which defensive line was breached. Aurelia thought about her two babies in her belly. She wanted to make one this family, to try to get along with him, and to give the children a healthy home.
Aurelia knew how much the lack of a father’s love could affect a child’s growth
She couldn’t help but want to tell him, We have babies, twins, and they are healthy.”
But Aurelia held back when she thought about the child in Chelsea’s belly.
Nathaniel let go of her and put the clothes she had just taken out back into the closet, one by one.
“Aurelle, please don’t mention divorce again,”

She loved this man s so much that it was hard to let go.
After three years of being together, Nathaniel had become a part of her life,
Her feelings for him were so intense that she almost could not let go at all.
Now, Nathaniel put away his dignity to coax her. She wobbled about whether she should give up divorcing him.
Aurelia could never accept Chelsea. “Nathaniel, you’d better think twice before saying such things. It makes me think you’ve fallen in love with me,” Aurelia said.
Nathaniel sneered “Adults shouldn’t talk about love all the time. Compatibility is important, and everything else is secondary.”
Aurelia’s heart turned cold.
In other words, he believed that their relationship was purely transactional
All the previous words were irrelevant to l
