CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Hearing Micah's words, Arin had a few things she wanted to say.

However, before she could, Micah continued, "I've already made a promise to Freya. A man of his word must see it through. Besides, I don't dislike her." Arin's breath caught in her throat.

Micah had kept women at a distance because of his sense of duty. But Freya was different. He did not mind having her close, and she had always been by his side. The sayings, "familiarity breeds closeness" and "time reveals true character," couldn't have been truer. Arin's heart ached intensely.

She was just a commoner, and her status was worlds apart from Freya's. Micah needed a partner who could stand by his side as his equal, someone strong and capable, not someone like her, a nobody from the slums.

No matter how hard she had worked all these years, the vast difference in their social standing had never changed.

"Teacher Micah, if she's the one you care about, then I wish you happiness. I hope you'll always be happy," Arin finally managed to say.

"Thank you," Micah replied, genuinely appreciative.

Arin turned away, feeling the weight of her unfulfilled dreams. She had pushed herself so hard, trying to elevate her status and prove herself, but now that her goal was gone, she felt utterly powerless.
