Nana was shocked to see the woman in front of her, who exactly resembled Huo Xiao Fan. Liang Xiao Dan was equally puzzled and stunned to hear the name from her. Xiao Fan…How does she know her? Nana's reaction reminded her of the pregnant woman she had met in the market when they had just returned to Beijing. The anger and resentment and how she blamed her was exactly the same as what Nana was doing. "You…you are misunderstanding something, dear." Nana frowned. What was there to misunderstand? She…

Nana had also heard Liang Zou's short but funny speech. It cracked her in laughter as well. She looked at her tummy. Grandfather… Wouldn't he jump in happiness if he came to know that I'm pregnant? Nana grinned. She couldn't wait to see his expression! Meiling said, "Mam, the starters are all served now." Nana nodded. "En. Let's work on the main course." --- In the banquet hall, Jianyu, Jing, the twins, and Huo Liwei still were utterly dumbstruck. Huo Liwei asked, "Dad! What is going on? How…

Liu Jinhai, Nana, along with Liu Hai, Liu Chunhua, Jing, and the twins, entered the banquet hall. Nana looked elegant in the peach-colored gown with her big tummy. She walked a little slowly with the help of Jinhai. The women were excited and looked forward to the drama. How can Huian have the face in front of her ex-husband? They were waiting to see her arrogant attitude smash into pieces. How can there not be any scene when the wife and ex-wife were standing at the same place? Huian froze when she saw…

Thursday, the evening of Liang Zou's birthday banquet. Liu villa. Nana had worn a plain, ivory-colored gown and tied her hair into a bun. She had already taken a set of a gown to change in the banquet. Since she would be busy in the kitchen preparations, Nana couldn't wear an expensive and stylish gown while working. Jinhai wore more formal clothes; a maroon-colored shirt, covered by a designer black jacket and black trousers. There were a beautiful pair of diamond cuff links on his shirt…

Nana said, "It is some Liang family." Jinhai stiffened. Nana felt a little strange. Liang family… In normal circumstances, it wouldn't have bothered him. But Liang Shin was now Huian's doctor. It's not like he didn't want her to know about her real family, but Jinhai had planned to tell her about them after she gave birth. Because it was a whole another story of her disappearance from the hospital when she was born, and he didn't want to stress her out. But now he would have to tread carefully since…

Huo Shen widened his eyes. He looked at his son, stunned and in disbelief. "Liang Zou, who runs his business in Paris?" He was still unable to process what Huo Liwei just said. "Yes. Apparently, the Liang family is back because Liang Zou's son, Liang Shin, is here for a medical case. Since they are back after so long and his birthday is coincidentally falling at the same time, Liang Zou is celebrating a banquet." Huo Shen was quiet. His expression turned grim and serious. Huo Liwei frowned. He was…

The next morning, Nana was resting on her bed, having some tea. Jinhai was in the shower. Jinhai's phone buzzed. Nana looked towards the bathroom door and figured it would take a while for him to come out. She picked it up. "Sir." It was Assistant Xin. "Ah, I'm Nana. Jinhai is busy in the shower." "It is okay, Madam Liu." "Do you want me to give him a message?" "It's nothing important. I just called to inform sir about the conference." "Okay. I will tell Jinhai to call you back." "Thank you,…

Nana was stumped for any words. Huian had claimed to ask for forgiveness even then too when Nana was hospitalized, but it was her fear of getting caught that made her do that. But now, her apology was genuine. The tear that slid from her eye, the painful expression she had, meant that Huian meant that apology from the bottom of the heart this time. "I…" Nana didn't know how to respond. This was out of her expectations. Huian continued to speak in a hoarse voice. "I…was selfish…conceited…I took…

Huian's treatment finally started after Liang Shin mapped out her recovery plan. Almost fifteen days passed by. Initially, he helped her do light movements of her arms and legs as much as she could do and as much pain she could bear. Liang Shin held her fingers one by one and slowly tried to lift them and the same with the toes. Huian did her best to co-operate. But it was excruciating. She gritted her teeth and sweat was trickling down the side of her head. "You are doing very well." Liang Shin nodded.…

Liang Shin sat beside Huian. He slowly lifted her wrist, but apart from some minute movement, it did nothing. He checked her legs too and conducted a preliminary examination. He said, "Miss Huian will have to go through a lot of exercises and treatment. It will be a little painful, but if she is determined enough, she can recover in one month. There is an extensive regime for that; otherwise, usually, it takes up to three to four months with the usual treatment." Xiang Wei and Xiang Wei got a little…
