Chapter 4.
[Come to a regular cafe, I'll treat you]
Damian wrote a message to Xavier.
[Okay]
Not long after Xavier came to the cafe, Damian was waiting there with the menu he had ordered.
"How was your s*x last night? Did you enjoy it?"
Xavier smiled sarcastically, not understanding why Damian always asked such nasty questions.
"Yes, I enjoyed it."
"How can you enjoy s*x with a woman sleeping like the undead." Damian smiled mockingly as he saw on the CCTV that Xavier had given Hallena sleeping pills.
"Xavier, why did you do that?" Damian laughed, "You're such a loser."
Brak!
Xavier kicked the table and grabbed Damian's shirt in anger, not caring about the people watching him.
"A man who can't get his wife pregnant is a real loser and this is the last time I touch your wife, don't ask me to do that again."
Xavier stormed out of the cafe. Leaving Damian to chuckle in annoyance.

"Where's Damian? Why isn't he home yet?" Hallena waited anxiously for her husband, usually at 5 pm Damian would be home from the office but it was already 7 pm and he hadn't returned yet, "Is he okay?
Although Damian was often rude, Hallena was still worried about her husband. A while later Damian called her.
[Hello dear, why aren't you home yet?]
Hallena asked in a worried tone.
[Today there is a sudden office event, my parents asked you to come, be ready, my driver will pick you up]
Damian ended his call.
Hallena hurried to change her clothes. It wasn't long before the driver came to pick her up.
"Thank you." Hallena smiled as the car pulled up to the luxury hotel where the event was being held.
Hallena repeatedly tried to call Arlan, but he didn't pick up. Hallena waltzed into the venue.
"My son-in-law is here." Mrs. Aline smiled at Hallena from a distance.
Damian spontaneously turned around, looking at Hallena confusedly looking for him. Damian was surprised to see Hallena who was only wearing a cheap dress without even a thick layer of makeup on her face, looking shabby, even some of the guests there seemed to be gossiping about her, really embarrassed Damian.
"Hallena." Damian's mother called out as she waved her hand.
Hallena smiled and hurried over to her mother-in-law and husband.
"Honey, I'm sorry I'm late."
"It's okay, honey." Damian wrapped his arms around Hallena and held her hand tightly.
In front of his parents, Damian was always willing to treat Hallena well. The evening program was filled with dinner together, Xavier was also present. After dinner, Damian's parents chose to go home first while Damian still wanted to enjoy the event.
"Damian." A sexy woman approached Damian and Hallena.
"Viola?" Damian looked surprised to see the beautiful woman who had been his business partner and former lover.
"How are you?"
"I'm doing well." The two smiled at each other.
"Is this your wife?" Viola glanced at Hallena who was standing next to Damian.
"Yes, this is my wife."
"Oh." Viola knew that Damian was married but she was reluctant to come to Damian's wedding.
The two broke up because Damian's parents didn't approve of Damian being in a relationship with Viola. Viola smiled mockingly at the fact that Damian's wife was just an ordinary woman who looked like a plebeian.
"Why don't we chat over there?" Viona pointed to a chair near the pool.
"Okay."
"Honey, where are you going?" Hallena held Damian back as he was about to leave.
"I'm going to talk to Viola." Damian brushed Hallena's hand away, leaving Hallena for dead.
Hallena tried to hold back her tears, how could Damian leave her and choose to chat with another woman? Hallena waited for a long time but Damian didn't want to be disturbed and asked Hallena to go home first. Hallena, who was already uncomfortable, left the venue.
"Where is he?" Hallena was confused to find Damian's driver.
Hallena chose to wait by the side of the road hoping that a taxi would pass by. Hallena waited for a long time until the sound of a car horn startled her.
"Xavier?" Hallena was surprised when the windshield slowly lowered to reveal Xavier's face.
"Get in, I'll take you home."
"No, I'll just wait for a taxi."
"There won't be any taxis on this road."
Hallena was silent.
"Fine if you don't want to."
"Wait, I'll come with you." Hallena, who felt the night was getting late, hurried to get into Xavier's car.
Along the way, there was no conversation between the two. Hallena tried to hold back her tears, feeling disappointed with Damian's attitude tonight.

1 month later
"Put this on." Damian handed something to Hallena who was sitting on the edge of the bed.
"Pregnancy test kit?" Hallena looked confused at the flat object he was holding.
"You've had a late period, you should be pregnant."
"What?" Hallena was quite surprised at Damian's attitude of wanting her to be pregnant.
"Hurry up and check."
"Okay." Hallena hurried to the toilet and checked the test.
Damian waited quietly until Hallena came out of the toilet.
"How did it go?" Damian asked enthusiastically.
Hallena handed him the test.
"What?" Damian was surprised to see the single line the test showed, "You're not pregnant?"
"Honey, me coming late doesn't mean I'm pregnant."
"Damn, you should be pregnant." Damian chuckled in annoyance.
"Honey -"
"Leave me alone."
"But baby -"
"Leave me alone!" Damian snapped half yelling.
A disappointed Hallena rushed out of the room. Damian paced restlessly, his plans again not going his way.
"Why isn't she pregnant?" Damian continued to think, earlier the doctor said there was no problem withHallena "Could the problem be with Xavier?"
That same day Damian asked Xavier to come to a hospital. Despite still feeling upset with Damian that day Xavier came to the hospital. Upon arrival, a female nurse asked Xavier to do some examinations.
After waiting for a long time Xavier came out of the examination room, Damian was waiting outside.
"Here." Xavier handed him the lab results he'd received.
Damian read it carefully, it said that if there was no problem with, he was a normal man who could have offspring. Danial smiled slightly at Xavier's sour face.
"I told you I'm not a loser like you," Xavier said in a mocking tone and walked away.
Damian who heard that clenched his fists in annoyance.
