When he looked at that bulging belly that was so visible and couldn't be hidden anymore, he felt as if someone was squeezing his heart and wanted to rip it out.
Having the woman that he loved so much from first sight carrying that bastard child and loving that child so much after getting abandoned, he felt so much hatred. Not for her, but for the bastard who was a coward and ran away from such a woman.
How could a sane man leave such a capable woman?
After observing Calista for more than a month, he realized and accepted that she wasn't looking for love at all. She just wanted to raise her child, give him or her a home, and make the village prosper.
Nothing fazes her, the wealth and everything, the lady seemed to have it all. She was just low-key, and facing such a lady like that, how could he even convince her that he liked her and wanted to spend the rest of his life with her?
