“Honey, do you really want to seein jail? And aren't you pregnant? Are you going to let our child grow up
without a father? | swear, if | had known you were pregnant, | would never have lost my mind and done
something like that. | was only trying to scare Yolanda; | just wanted to get smoney to spend. | would never
actually do anything to her!”
“Honey, for the sake of the baby! I'm begging you!”
At first, when the two were together, Megan had many expectations for having children, and they both actively
and seriously tried to conceive for a while.
Now, the child is coming at a bad time, and maybe because of hormones, she feels uncomfortable just looking at
Greg.
She covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face in big drops.
Seeing her so upset, Greg's eyes lit up. “Honey, you can’t letgo, can you?! I'm begging you, from now on I'll
just stay hquietly and never go out messing around again.”
Megan didn’t know what to do either. She told Yolanda that she was pregnant. She knew it was despicable to use
her pregnancy to pressure her own friend.
After hanging up, Yolanda felt a bit lost.
Megan is pregnant, and pregnant women are especially vulnerable and need care.
She rubbed her forehead, took a deep breath, and called the police station.
Withdraw the complaint; no further action will be taken.
She could do nothing.
She lay in bed wide awake. Just before dawn, Megan sent her a message.
[Thank you.]
Just those two words, because beyond that, she didn’t know what else to say,
Both of them knew this would beca sore spot between them.
When Yolanda woke up, her head felt especially foggy. Zack White called her and said the had been
released early. They wanted to take advantage of lan’s current popularity, saying releasing it now would benefit

Plus, the public opinion had turned around. lan’s followers jumped from less than three million to over eight
million overnight.

This was just the prelude to his explosive rise. Once the aired and lan’s acting was truly tested by the
audience, he would only get more popular.
Yolanda breathed a sigh of relief, went downstairs, and planned to go visit lan’s filming set.
But since it was Saturday, Charles was home.
Seeing her about to leave, Charles furrowed his brow. “Where are you going?”
She seems really busy lately, and she still hasn't givenhis birthday gift.
“I want to go see my friend-she’s pregnant.”
Charles flipped a page of the financial newspaper in his hands. “Did you forget to givesomething?”
Yolanda paused, thinking carefully for a few seconds, but couldn't figure out what it was.
Charles finally realized: she forgot.
Yolanda had loved him for fifteen years. She used to start preparing gifts a month in advance, but this tshe
clearly didn’t put in much effort for his birthday.
Did Yolanda stop loving him?
As soon as the thought cup, he immediately dismissed it.
Even if the world exploded, Yolanda would never stop loving him.
“Honey, you've been going out too much lately. Just stay hand relax for a few days.”
That doesn’t sound like a suggestion.
Yolanda finally caught on; he was probably asking about the birthday gift.
She hadn't bought one, but that day at the mall, she got lan a watch.
Except his birthday hadn't arrived yet.
She quickly went upstairs and took the watch down.
“Honey, | just remembered-I forgot to give you your birthday gift. The one Quinn and the others gave you was
too expensive, so | didn’t bring it that night. Please don’t be mad.”
She said this as she sat down, took out the watch, and put it on his wrist.
But the watch didn’t fit well; the band was a bit too loose.
Yolanda looked up at him and smiled. “I took forever picking this watch out, specially for you.”
Charles glanced down; the style wasn’t very special but stood out for its understated steadiness.

He pinched her chin, staring carefully at her face for a few seconds.
For a moment, Yolanda thought she was about to be seen through.

But he smiled and pressed a kiss to her lips. “Looks good.”
She lowered her lashes, still obedient. “As long as you like it.”
It's tto buy a birthday gift for lan again. Given his personality, it's hard to tell what he’d like.
When she snapped back to reality, she saw Charles frowning.
“Did you hear what | just said? We're going to have dinner with your brother later.”
Since he’s recently been working with Samuel and didn’t invite him to his birthday, he had to have a separate
dinner.
After all, he and Samuel could be considered friends.
Yolanda nodded and took stto send a message to lan.
[Focus on filming. Your fans have already reached over eight million. Director Zack White's show airs tonight, and
you'll get even more popular.]
lan replied instantly; he almost always did.
[I miss you.]
Those three words made Yolanda’s heart skip a beat.
She found it hard to imagine why someone with such a reserved personality would speak so openly.
A sudden blush touched her cheeks as she recalled the scene of him beating up Greg last night, his arm muscles
flexing smoothly and beautifully.
She swallowed hard, struggling to forget that moment.
But Charles's embrace csuddenly, wrapping her completely in his arms.
“Why the distracted look?”
“I was scared by what happened last night, feeling a bit frightened.”
He tilted his head and kissed her cheek, “You said that was your friend's husband. Have you dealt with it?”
She lowered her lashes, looking a little disappointed.
“My friend is pregnant recently. | plan not to pursue this matter.”
Charles's eyes darkened as he pinched her chin, “That kind of person won't change. When they hit rock bottom,
they'll cback to find you.”

Yolanda tugged at the corner of her mouth and nestled into his arms.
Every tshe showed vulnerability on her own, Charles would becsomewhat indulgent.
But she knew clearly this didn’t mean he had a place for her in his heart. Charles was cold and ruthless-he
simply didn’t love anyone.
