Following their lunch, Joanna decided to pay a visit to Aria.

Aria, who was currently dedicating her days to caring for her child at home, hadn't seen Joanna in some time. Their reunion was filled with genuine joy.

"My dear, aren't you still occupied with filming variety shows? How is it that you're back already?"

Aria had just managed to get her little one to drift off to sleep, creating a small window of opportunity to catch up with her girlfriend.

Despite having domestic helpers to assist with childcare,

she expressed a preference for handling most tasks herself.

Though it presented its challenges, she found fulfillment in these activities.

"I returned to attend to some matters and decided to take a day off. I realized it had been a while since I'd seen you and Stacy, so I came over. Stacy has grown so much! It feels like mere weeks since I last saw her, and she's already changed so noticeably."

"Indeed," Aria's eyes sparkled with a delightful mixture of happiness and affection as she spoke of her daughter. "Brandon even commented that she's growing so rapidly that the clothes he bought her no longer fit. People often say children are demanding and troublesome, but I find Stacy to be exceptionally well-behaved and easy to manage."

"She mostly just eats, sleeps, and remains quiet throughout the day. Barring the day she was born, she's hardly ever cried. Seriously, my dear, you should consider having a child soon, too."

Joanna looked at Aria, a smile gracing her lips, "What, are you joining the ranks of those urging marriage now? I distinctly recall someone once declaring children to be the most bothersome creatures on earth, and vowing to postpone having any if they ever got married."

"I'm not pressuring you," Aria mused for a moment before smiling. "It's true, I used to think kids were a handful and didn't particularly care for them. However, ever since Stacy came along, my entire perspective has shifted."

"Every day, I gaze at her and marvel at the existence of such an adorable baby in this world. With Stacy, I experience such profound happiness and contentment that my life feels complete. Once you experience motherhood yourself, your viewpoint will undoubtedly change too."

"Furthermore, didn't you mention you're currently trying to conceive? If you welcome a baby soon, they could have a playmate in Stacy."

Speaking of trying to conceive, Joanna gently touched her stomach, "Mhm, we are. But there haven't been any positive results yet."

Aria’s gaze followed to Joanna’s midsection, her brow furrowing slightly before she inquired with a hint of hesitation, "You two have been trying for some time now, haven't you? And from what you've shared, your heartthrob is quite enthusiastic about this endeavor. Is it concerning that there's still no progress?"

"We've both undergone medical examinations, and the doctors confirmed there's nothing amiss with either of us," Joanna let out a soft sigh. "Perhaps the baby simply isn't ready to enter this world just yet. Regardless, I'm not in a rush to have a child right now, so we'll just let things unfold naturally."

"That sentiment is understandable," Aria concurred with a nod. "You and your heartthrob are still quite young, so even if you welcome a baby a few years down the line, it won't be too late. On a different note, I saw the news today – is Omega Huntley truly Annie Lawrence? What exactly is the story behind this?"

Joanna proceeded to elaborate on her suspicions regarding Annie’s true identity and the secret investigations being conducted by Gary White and Jeremy.

Upon hearing the details, Aria was overcome with a mix of shock and apprehension, "She underwent plastic surgery to resemble you and seized the opportunity to get close to you the moment she returned to the country; her intentions are undoubtedly malicious. It's fortunate that you remained unharmed. However, I fear that by exposing her this way, she might harbor an even deeper resentment towards you and resort to more drastic actions."
