AUTHOR POV
Nadine is with her parents-in-law on a private plane belonging to Adrian to travel to Los Angeles.
Nadine was unable to hide her anxiety and incessantly played her fingers, signifying that her heart was overwhelmed by excitement.
Nadine's thoughts focused on her husband, Adrian. Where is he now? How's things going? Is he eating and in good health or facing danger?
That's about the question that often rants in Nadine's brain. He can't think straight now. The influence of pregnancy hormones, coupled with the many dramas that occur lately make him anxious.
It's been almost a few hours, no word on Adrian. Repeatedly Nadine called and sent a message, but there was no reply. And so is Ray, who is hard to contact.
Even her two in-laws were almost doomed when they were about to pick her up at the hospital. Then don't blame Nadine for being overthinking.
"Darling.you eat first yes, from earlier you have not filled the stomach with food you know! I just got out of the hospital. Must be maintained stamina, especially now you are pregnant." said Mama Diana who sat beside Nadine.
"I have no appetite Mah.I feel my heart is not calm if you have not heard from Adrian. I'm afraid Mah..."
Mama Diana clasped Nadine's hand. "We pray together for Adrian's safety dear..You believe, God will always protect your son out there. Be sure of that."
"Nadine's..Adrian is a strong man, Papa is sure nothing bad will happen to your husband. He'll be back on us soon. Papa can guarantee it 100 percent. Never doubt your husband's abilities. He can definitely overcome Galih tonight as well." said Papa Alan confidently.
Nadine nodded. "Good Pah..Nadine believes Adrian will be fine."
"Well, positive thinking is better than assuming a no-no. Most importantly, focus on your pregnancy. I can't wait to see my grandchild at home."
Papa Alan was so excited. Already long ago, he was expecting to fondle a grandson. At first, Papa Alan thought, the wait will be long because Arjuna is not mature enough to wade through the household nipper. Adrian refuses to marry or have children.
But unexpectedly, God had other plans to change Adrian's life destiny so that Nadine could be present in the midst of their family's chaos. Papa Alan's happiness is increasing.
"Now eat yes dear.pity later the baby in your stomach is hungry because his mother has not eaten." persuaded Mama Diana while stroking Nadine flat stomach.
"Yes Mah.I want to eat.." Nadine assented.
"What do you want to eat? Maybe there's pregnancy craving, you want to eat something? It can choose its own menu anyway you like Nadine..."
"What is the Mah.I whatever, the important thing is that my stomach fill the food and baby so happy." Nadine smiled faintly.
"Okay Mama picked a good one. Anyway, do not raw sushi or sashimi this, because it is not allowed for pregnant women. Later if the order has come, let Mama who bribe. You're still drowning in his body."
"Yes Ma.bby. Thank you Mah, I love Nadine. I can feel the affection of a mother I never got as a child."
Both of Nadine's eyes were glazed over. She was so emotional and wanted to cry hard. For a long time he craved a mother who was able to provide comfort. And this time, she got it from Mama Diana.
"Hey.you're Mama's son. Princess Mama. Of course Mama loves you. And yes, and so are your other brothers. Never feel yourself, we all love you. We'll always be there for you..."
Nadine was moved to hear Mama Diana's words that touched her heart. Her mother-in-law's sincerity need not be doubted. It would not be wrong if Papa Alan was so fascinated and immediately married her.

Although Galih had signed all the transfer papers of rights and ownership to Adrian, all that did not seem enough to make Adrian satisfied.
There has been no sign of Adrian suggesting that he will soften and immediately release Galih and his daughter. He still wants to play around.
The grinning look on Adrian's face seemed to show his power and arrogance, making Galih flaky. In his mind, he already had to prepare for a bigger bad plan to be coming his way.
Between imprisonment or death, Galih had no idea. But one thing is for sure, Adrian will certainly take advantage of his condition that has been cornered and weakened at this time.
Adrian picked up one by one letters that had been perfectly signed by Galih. Previously, Adrian had checked everything so that nothing was missed. After finishing, he immediately handed it to Ray who was behind him.
"Ray, take all the papers to a safer place. Invite 2-3 of our subordinates to accompany you. It's just a way it works, isn't it?"
Ray's down. "Ready, understand sir."
"For Mr. Miko and Mr. Graham, I appreciate the success of our cooperation that went well. For that, according to our previous promise, I directly transfer the money."
Adrian tinkers with his phone to send money in return to Graham and Miko's accounts, each worth hundreds of millions. Adrian is in a good mood at the moment, that's why he's royal.
"You can go back tonight to your home of origin. Don't worry about your safety, I guarantee you. Ray can take you at the same time discuss the legality of the letter that has been signed by Galih." continued Adrian.
"Well Mr. Adrian, thank you for your concern." Miko and Graham replied together.
"I'm sorry sir, I will take Mr. Graham and Mr. Miko directly to the local hotel. Their flight will be scheduled at around 8 tomorrow morning." Ray whispered softly in Adrian's ear so that others would not hear.
"Okay. Do what needs to be done."
Ray immediately withdrew from the crowd and took Graham and Miko with him. Not to forget, there is also a motorcade of bodyguards who escort their departure to the hotel.
"Don't ignore me Adrian! I really gave up. All those piles of letters and our contract agreement I signed, what else now? Release my daughter!" said Galih who hoarded.
Adrian tells his men to release Kayla and herd her on Galih. And when the bond in Kayla's hand had broken, the woman immediately ran as fast as she hugged Galih and cried sobbing in the arms of her Father. Both are so emotional.
Unfortunately, the game is not over here.
Adrian then ordered his subordinates to beat Galih all out mercilessly. Why not Adrian himself The answer is because of Nadine. His wife is pregnant now. Adrian can't dirty his hands carelessly.
