His Precious Love

After giving it some thought, the man continued, “I noticed her eyeing your tummy a few times. She probably thinks it’s normal for you to bump into others with that huge tummy of yours.”

Unlike her concerned husband, the pregnant woman was planning her dream vacation.

She even dreamt of getting permanent residency in Moranta and using the remainder of the money to start a small business.

Thinking she would have a hard time hailing a cab that late at night, Rayna went to sleep in the guest room instead.
