Zayn was grateful for what she had done for him.
I guess women can come up with romantic ways to surprise men too.
Other women would employ all sorts of tricks to get Zayn's attention, but only Nella seemed to know what he truly desired!
Zayn was drawn by how graceful Nella was in the video when she danced barefoot on the beach.
Her smile and the deep gaze in her eyes made her look as meek as an angel.
For once in his life, Zayn watched a video to the end. After turning off the video, he texted her: Thank you.
Regardless of her motive, Zayn was grateful for what she had done for him.
If only Carla was the one who did this for me…
After a four-hour drive, Freda finally arrived at the villa in Yavawi.
It was two in the morning, and everyone was already asleep—except Rogan and Bugara.
While waiting for Carla and Freda, this couple took the opportunity to date secretly in the courtyard.
Upon hearing the car engine from a distance, they went up to have a look. Rogan then went up and opened the car door for Carla. "Welcome back, Ms. Lierger."
Carla responded with a low grunt. She then studied Bugara from the corner of her eyes. "You're still here?"
"I… I've been assigned to take care of the children." Bugara blushed. "Benard said he would send them home tomorrow, and we'll also be paying Dr. Feroma a visit."
"All right then." Carla then walked into the villa.
Rogan inched closer and asked Freda. "What's wrong? Ms. Lierger seems unhappy."
"It's nothing. Go and get a good night's rest, " Freda responded and kept up with Carla.
Rogan pursed her lips and told Bugara to take a rest in the car. She then followed the rest and entered the villa.
In gentle steps, Carla walked to the room. After a shower, she lay on her bed and told herself to sleep early so that she would have enough energy to spend the next day with the children.
Yet, the image of Zayn and Nella being intimate with each other kept popping up in her mind.
After taking half a sleeping pill, she eventually drifted off to sleep.
Despite being deep in slumber, she had a dream. She dreamed that Zayn and Nella got married, and the children called Nella their mommy. She, who had become an outsider, could only helplessly watch them from afar.
It was a peaceful dream, and nothing about it was terrifying. Yet, when Carla woke up from her sleep, she realized her face was wet with tears that streamed down her face.
The scene from the dream haunted her once again. She stared at the ceiling blankly and felt utterly conflicted.
Daemon was right. I'm not steady and constantly indecisive. I'm not that the kind of person who's born with a will of iron.
I worry too much because I find it hard to let things go. Yet, I can't control my feelings. I don't have the courage to pursue my own happiness…
That was how conflicted she was.
She knew all her weaknesses and hated them, but at the same time, she could not change her personality.
Just when she was still deep in thoughts, Daemon's children knocked on her door in excitement. "Wake up, Aunt Carla! Wake up!"
The three children were all hyped up like energetic sparrows, and they were the reason the villa was lively all the time.
"Don't disturb my Mommy, okay? Let's go downstairs and have breakfast. Come, " Venus said in a stern but affectionate voice.
"What time did Mommy come home last night, Freda? Why didn't you tell us?" Josh asked while yawning.
