concern as the two friends "Mia, how are you and the baby doing?" Emily asked, her tone filled with chatted on the phone. She knew Mia had been facing complications with her second pregnancy and made it a point to check on her daily.

"We're doing well, Emily," Mia replied, warmth filling her voice as she felt comforted by her best friend's care. "I had a doctor's appointment yesterday, and she said the baby is healthy and growing well."

"Thank God, Mia! I went to church last Sunday to pray for you, and now I'll go back to give thanks," Emily said with heartfelt relief.

Mia smiled, touched by Emily's kindness. "You're so sweet. How are things on your end?"

Mia had been working on expanding her company by opening new offices in Italy, but following her doctor's advice to rest, the process had slowed down. Meanwhile, Emily, who had been managing the Paris branch, continued to stay in close contact with Mia. After all, Mia was the founder of M.P. Interiors, and the business was her passion.

"Everything is going smoothly, though," Emily reassured her the phone., "Today, we signed a major deal with a prominent real estate company. They've given us a five-year contract to handle all their projects across the country."

"That's incredible, Emily! You're really taking the business to new heights," Mia said, her voice filled with pride. She admired how her best friend, once her assistant, had grown into a capable business partner.

"I've learned from the best," Emily replied warmly, making Mia smile, feeling both satisfaction and gratitude for the strong bond they shared.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

"Thanks, Emily, but I was actually asking about your personal life. How are things going for you?" Mia asked gently.

Emily sighed quietly, feeling the weight of everything that had been happening. Though she had finally achieved justice by sending Tomas to jail for life and reclaiming the properties he had deceitfully taken from her parents, a new problem had emerged. Relatives, who had once turned their backs on her when she lost everything after the divorce, were now circling like vultures, trying to leech off her newly regained fortune. When her parents had passed away and Tomas had left her penniless, none of them had come forward to help. But now, those so-called relatives were demanding their share of the wealth, claiming their connection to Emily's late parents.

However, knowing that Mia didn't need any additional stress, especially during her complicated pregnancy, Emily decided not to burden her with these worries.

"Everything's fine, Mia," Emily replied, keeping her tone light and reassuring, despite the heaviness she felt inside.

But Mia sensed something was off. She responded gently, "Emily, you know I'm here for you, right?"

"I know, Mia," Emily sighed, a bright smile tugging at her lips. Mia had always been there for her-through her darkest days, when she was alone and had nothing. Mia had supported her back then, and she was still doing it now. Emily often felt she could never repay her for that.

"You can always tell me anything, you know that, right? Mia asserted, her tone filled with genuine care.

"Yeah!" Emily gigoled trying to lighten the mood "You worry too much! Remember it's had for my little

"Alright, bestie," Mia replied with a chuckle. Just then, she heard a car horn outside. "I think Alessandro just got home. I'll talk to you later. Take care," Mia said warmly.

"Bye, Mia," Emily replied, shaking her head with a small smile. She couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy at how Alessandro, the mafia king, had Mia's full, undivided attention. But deep down, she knew Alessandro and Mia were meant to be together-a couple that seemed destined, as if made in heaven.

Putting her phone aside, Emily turned off the computer on her desk and prepared to leave for home. She didn't like being alone in that house; she missed Gia and Maximo so much. She regretted not accepting Mia's offer to come to Italy with her, instead deciding to support her from Paris while managing the business in France.

As she reached for her bag, the door to her office was pushed open, making her frown with annoyance. Who had the audacity to come here without an appointment? The staff had already left for the day, and the security team was off duty, as it was well past office hours. But Emily had stayed late, reluctant to head home with nothing to occupy her time.

Her eyes lifted to the door, and the furrow between her eyebrows deepened as she saw the last person on earth she expected standing before her.
