Unexpected Second Chance at Love

After their prenatal visit, Yue Ling and Lu Tian left the hospital in smiles. She was now 10 weeks pregnant and their baby was healthy and doing great.

Walking out of the private hospital, Lu Tian told her to wait while he went to go get the car. However, she continues to stare at the ultrasound photo of their little one. He or she is already the size of a strawberry.

Staring at it, she decided that she will gift this photo to her grandfather as a second gift since Lu Tian bought the original gift. She knows that he will be happy for them.

Her hand gently touch her stomach and she softened. Before, her stomach was flat and unnoticeable, but now, she could feel a tiny bump. If she were to wear tight clothes, one will definitely notice.

As Lu Tianʼs car pulls up to the curb, he helps her get inside.

Unaware of the person looking at them from the third-floor window, Ye Ju-Hsin sneer at the scene below the hospital.

She has never seen Lu Tian so attentive towards anyone before. Even when she was the one who grew up with him, he never showed her any gentleness, let alone smile at her. Being near him was not even an option.

However, seeing Lu Tian treat Yue Ling like she was his most precious item, she felt envy and hatred for the woman.

”What are you looking at?”

From behind, Ye Zhongwei walks up to his sister and sees her staring out the window. Stopping behind her, he glance out and sees what she is looking at.

His head shook and he sighs.

”You are a smart girl. Donʼt try to make it yours if it is not meant to be yours.”

Hearing her older brotherʼs words, Ye Ju-Hsin felt even worse inside. She turns to look at her brother with an angry expression.

”Not mine? I was there for him ever since we were young. He is meant to be mine, not hers!”

Ye Zhongwei shook his head again and place his hands inside the pockets of his white coat.

”Ju-Hsin, you know better than anyone that you are like a little sister if not a friend to him and nothing beyond that.”

Saying this, he glance down at Lu Tianʼs departing car and turns away.

”You should be happy for them.”

Walking away, he couldnʼt help but pity his sister. Out of all the men in Imperial, she had to aim for Lu Tian.

Growing up together, everyone could see that Lu Tian never held the same feelings as Ye Ju-Hsin, but she was always too blind because of love.

Hopefully his sister will be a mature person and move her love interest to another.

Right now, Lu Tian is happy, and anyone can see that he has fallen head over heels for his wife.

If she decides to intervene, who knows what kind of cruelty will befall her.

Watching her brother walk away, Ye Ju-Hsin pondered in thoughts about what he said. She turn to glance one more time at the back view of Lu Tian car and turns away.

Walking in the direction her brother had gone, her eyes flash with a glint of evil. She knows that her brother is right, but she is a selfish person.

Lu Tian may be in love with Yue Ling, but that is only a phase. She tells herself that Lu Tian is only with Yue Ling because she is pregnant with his child or… is it even his?

Thinking this, she felt better as a smile curl on her lip.

Whatever she wants, she will get.

Oblivious to the thoughts of the doctor, Lu Tian drives his wife to De Lʼamour while he left to Lu Corps. He had told Xu Long to push his meetings to a later time, so he must return to finish them.

Inside De Lʼamour, Yue Ling enters through the doors and sees her cute receptionist at her desk.

”CEO Han!”

Sophia held her chin with one hand and contemplated on what to do, but when she saw her boss walked through those doors, her eyes lit up and she quickly stood up.

”Youʼre finally here!”

Yue Ling looks at her receptionist and she chuckles a smile. She walks over to the front desk and decides to chat a little with the young woman.

”Good afternoon, Sophia. Anything for me today?”

Hearing those words, Sophia rolled her eyes inside. She slumps down onto her chair and points to a direction.

”Ever since the world found out that you were the designer of De Lʼamour, the gifts have been piling up every day.”

Yue Ling turn to look in the direction Sophia pointed out. However, when her eyes landed in that area, she was dumbfounded.

Stack on a table nearby was bundles of flowers and gifts in all sizes. Some were even on the floor. However, there was one that stood out the most to her.

It was a bouquet of bright red chrysanthemums.

She slowly walks over to the table of gifts and gently touch the pedals of the flowers. Seeing a card inside, she picks it up and opens to read it.

Note:

To my greatest friend, good luck and best wishes in your new beginning.

Love, Lee Hana, your friend for eternity

Reading the words to herself, she felt a tinge of pain yet relief wash inside her. She had been so busy with life in Imperial that she had forgotten all about her family in City Z.

However, from the note, she can guess that news about her reveal and her relationship must have traveled far.

”What is it?”

From the side, Sophiaʼs voice suddenly brings Yue Ling back from her thoughts. She set the card back in its original place and picks up the bundle of red flowers.

”Itʼs nothing. Move the gifts into my office as for the flowers, place them on empty tables for display.”

Saying this, she turns around and head for the elevator.

What she did not see was the confused look on the young womanʼs face.

Sophia stares at her boss then the many gifts. There were many prettier flowers sent to her, but why did she only grab the bouquet of chrysanthemums?

However, deciding not to put too much into it, she shrug her shoulders. Since she was complaining about nothing to do, she will use the time to do what her boss asked.

Walking to a storage room nearby, she goes and grab a trolley to put the gifts in.
