"When I received a call from Mr. Calder, you were right beside me, but I had no idea what was going on.

"I found Anya in her pajamas, visibly hurt. I decided to take her to the hotel first, but you called while I was checking her in. The lobby was filled with hotel staff.

"The second time you called, I was just getting back to the hotel from the hospital with Anya. I couldn't exactly stand there and gossip about Anya's situation over the phone, not in front of her and the hotel employees. Could I?"

Mia seemed to be choking back tears, realizing that it wasn't the best time for explanations. After all, Anya was a grown woman and deserved some dignity. "Why didn't you take me with you? Otherwise, people might misunderstand your relationship with her." Andre said, "It was past ten when this happened. You needed rest. And who knew what was going on at the university. What if something happened and you got hurt?"

Mia stopped crying. "Does Anya know you are married?"

Andre chuckled, "Of course she knows. She even attended our wedding."

"What?" Mia couldn't recall.

Andre added, "She even wanted me to send her regards to you and our child."

All thoughts of crying left Mia. Anya even knew about her pregnancy. "Honey, if you couldn't talk to me on the phone, you should've messaged me. You know how jealous I get. Plus, I'm extra sensitive because of my pregnancy. My heart was beating so fast in our room just now."

Andre embraced his startled wife. "I should have been more considerate."

"Honey, I do trust you." Mia made the sign of a little pinky promise. "But I am a little scared."

Andre held her hand. "It's okay. Time will prove my sincerity."

Mia felt a little guilty for getting jealous and making a scene.

Once they were back in their bedroom and Andre was lying next to her, Mia finally fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, they went to the university.
