Kalix is sitting on the sofa in the room, his facial features blurred in the dim light, only his eyes shining coldly at me. After a while, Kalix takes out his phone and makes a call.

As the phone call ends, night has truly arrived. Kalix bows his head, and his eyelashes cast deep shadows under his eyes, making him look lonely and indifferent.

Not knowing how long the doorbell rang, Kalix lifts his eyelids and walks expressionlessly.

Kalix opens the door from the inside and sees a beautiful woman standing outside the door.

It turns out to be Eugene.

Seeing this unexpected person, Kalix is momentarily confused, “You... Why are you here?”

But before Eugene gives an answer, Kalix has already pulled her into his embrace.

Despite the hug, Eugene can feel Kalix's anger because she came to him suddenly, without saying a word.

To avoid the man's anger, she says weakly, “I'm tired and hungry.”

Although feeling happy, there are still hard wrinkles on his forehead when he looks at Eugene. Kalix w

It was as if she could imagine Kalix sharing his life with another woman for years.Despite her rationality, she felt jealous, and the feeling surfaced as if it could strangle her at any moment. Eugene remained silent, unable to say anything. She stood frozen behind Kalix, watching the two and listening to their conversation.On the other side, Jane was oblivious to how Kalix looked at her, so she didn't realize his impatience. Overflowing with emotions, she poured out all the hardships in her heart."I'm guilty of betraying you before and being a spy for Mason. I beg for your forgiveness, Kalix, please forgive me and come back to me like before. Please stop tormenting me, stop making me scared and suffer."Jane cried, trying to hold Kalix's hand, showing her sincerity. Her entire body trembled, and her sorrow was palpable to others.In a l

    "You truly lived with that woman for years without knowing her rottenness?" Eugene widened her eyes, staring incredulously at Kalix, then continued, "I must admit, Mr. Kalix Owen, you were very naive in your past life."Kalix's expression appeared gloomy as he covered Eugene's mouth with his hand. Only when he was certain she would stop berating her foolishness did he release her."It's not just me who's foolish, Miss Eugene Celeste, you're also foolish for marrying a scoundrel like Jaxson Dominic."Upon hearing Kalix's retort, Eugene snorted in disgust and argued, "I must have been deceived."Oh, Kalix couldn't do anything about it because that was the truth. He heard from Nick that, in order to marry Eugene, Jaxson actually played an emotional game that gradually made Eugene dependent on him.Kalix sighed deeply, then leaned back. "Do you really believe my story? Doesn't it sound like nonsense?""Mm-hmm, it does sound like nonsense," Eugene replied without hesitation. She observed K

Kalix opened his eyes and looked towards the bed, with a smile on his lips, he asked, "What does the lady think?"Eugene snorted coldly, turn

She returned Jane's stare, not with her usual calmness, but with a hint of possessiveness and a firm determination to defend what she had. They locked eyes, baring their emotions to each other.Seeing this, Kalix felt dizzy. Even if he didn't like Jane, it didn't mean he enjoyed seeing Eugene so defensive. Yet, he didn't want to intervene and risk being misunderstood by Eugene. So, he quietly observed the confrontation unfolding before his eyes.Realizing Kalix's silence, both Eugene and Jane simultaneously turned their gaze toward him."What's up?

When he opened the phone, as he suspected, it was indeed from a number he hadn't seen in a long time but was very familiar. It was the number that had repeatedly contacted him in his previous life, threatening him. Staring at a series of numbers that even after years couldn't be forgotten, a sense of disgust crossed Kalix's eyes.Considering what Mason had done, he felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.However, the phone in his pocket rang, redirecting his thoughts back to reality.

She just didn't expect to meet that woman again after so long, even in such an unexpected situation.Meanwhile, Kalix was still stunned by what he saw. Lucas came with someone else, instead of the police who were tasked with finding his son. For a moment, he was almost speechless, until Jane herself greeted first."What an incredibly extraordinary coincidence, isn't it?" Jane smiled until her eyes narrowed.

    "Lucas! Be careful!" The shout came from Eugene. Watching her son continue to run around in the middle of the grass field in front of their house sometimes made Eugene feel like she was on the verge of a sudden heart attack. How could she not? Her five-year-old son was very active and almost never wanted to sit still for more than a minute. Eugene could only laugh as she watched Lucas proudly show off his catch, a small insect-shaped ball with black and reddish-orange patterns. "Are you happy to get it?" his mother asked, answered by her son's enthusiastic nod. A blade of grass fell from Lucas's head. Five years had passed, and Eugene had proven herself capable of fulfilling her duties as a mother. Lucas was active and intelligent, inheriting his good looks from Kalix, but his personality, no one knew where he got it from. "Lucas," called Kalix, who had just come out of the house.

Eugene glanced at Kalix to reassure him and laughed before answering, "I'm pregnant, Kalix. Pregnant with your child." After seeing her husband's expression, she chuckled softly—feeling amused by what she was seeing now. "You didn't expect that, did you?"

    "Eugene, are you alright?" Kalix's worried expression couldn't be hidden when he saw his wife looking pale. Eugene smiled gently. Actually, her stomach was quite upset in the morning, perhaps due to indigestion or eating something wrong. She emerged from the bathroom after vomiting her breakfast this morning. "I think I'm fine," Eugene said casually. "Shouldn't we go to the doctor just in case? I'll take you right now," Kalix suggested. Seeing how caring her husband was, her heart felt warm, but she had to refuse, "I'm okay. Besides, I already have plans with my friends today." Kalix sighed deeply, his gaze shifting to his wife's stomach. "I don't mean to stop you, but how can you go out on an empty stomach? You just vomited all your food." Actually, Eugene didn't feel very hungry, but considering the effort the man had put into preparing breakfast this morning, she felt guilty. "I'll try to eat again."

Eugene asked gently as she approached the only child there.The little boy, Lucas, turned around, seeing the pretty sister who often came to take care of him and his friends in the same room."There's snow, it's beautiful," Lucas said with a sparkle in his eyes. However, realizing he could not touch the snow, the sparkle in his eyes faded.Lucas had been in poor health since he was little, which is why his movements in the orphanage were very limited.Eugene held the boy's chin, smiling softly, and then said, "Do you want to go out?"Of course, the child nodded in agreement, he really wanted to leave his room to see the snow like the other children, even if he
