After arriving in Singapore, Finland hurriedly packed her belongings at Rose Mansion. She received several texts from Caspar asking how she was doing, but she did not reply. Finland immediately looked for a cheap rental room in Singapore so she could move out right away.

Tears welled up when she saw the mansion she had to leave. That place had become her home for several months now, and now she had to leave. With her current salary, she would only be able to rent a cheap room on the outskirt of a town far from the office.

[I heard from Ms. Law that you're packing your things... I understand that you don't want to stay in Rose Mansion with me, but I will not let you live miserably. I've transferred enough money to your account. You can rent any apartment or house you want. Please, take care of yourself. Don't stay in an unfit room. This is my last wish.]

When Finland was restlessly finding a new and cheap place to live, Caspar sent her that message. The girl was very surprised to read it; Caspar seemed to be able to read her mind again. He was giving Finland what he knew she needed, without being asked. Finland opened her internet banking account to check her balance. She was so shocked she could barely breathe for a few seconds.

Caspar had sent her enough money to buy a nice house in Singapore if she wanted to.

In her heart, Finland felt happy for receiving such a large sum of money, but she also knew that the two diamonds around her fingers were worth more than that, and if she really needed the money, she could always sell it. Even so, she would feel very sad if she had to sell Caspar gifts; moreover, one of them was his mother's ring.

Finally, Finland swallowed her pride and decided to accept the money. She knew she would really need money, especially since she was Caspar's wife, she was actually entitled to earn a living from her own husband. She then changed the type of lodging she wanted to search. She looked for a small apartment located near her office so she could move immediately.

Finland quickly contacted several property agents and made an appointment to see several units after work. She wasted no time. The next day she immediately visited several units that were included in the list recommended by the agent.

One of the units she was about to see was located on the 15th floor. The property agent talked at length about all the facilities provided in the apartment, but Finland hardly listened. She just nodded and walked to the balcony.

"There's a well-equipped swimming pool and gym..." The agent continued talking in the living room, not paying attention to Finland who was staring out of the balcony cautiously. Then, she slowly climbed on top of the balcony wall. She sat on the edge of the wall and closed her eyes, then leaned forward, as if she was going to drop herself...

Finland sat back down. She looked around and found that there was no suspicious movement nor noise at all, aside from the property agent who kept blabbering. She took a deep breath.

She just wanted to check if Caspar sent anyone to stalk her. She pretended to try to jump from the building to see if anyone would react, but apparently no one was watching her. She was relieved that this time Caspar kept his promise and stopped stalking her.

"I will take this unit." Finland entered the living room and took the bag that she placed on the table a few minutes earlier. "When can I move in?"

"Oh, you can move in tomorrow, as soon as the rent is paid," answered the property agent with a radiant face. "I will prepare the contract tonight. Later, please send me your identity card via WhatsApp."

"Fine. See you tomorrow."

Finland felt relieved. She was worried that Caspar was still tracking her, but now she felt safe. After leaving the apartment building she boarded a taxi and went to the hospital. Now she was certain that Caspar would not know if she went to the hospital.

Finland registered with the receptionist and waited for her name to be called. While waiting she opened her phone and wrote a message to Anthony Wu.

[Boss, is your offer to move to the United States still valid?]

[Did you change your mind? I still need you, if you want. I have started preparing my move there.]

[Will the company give me a work visa and pay for the relocation process for me?]

[Of course.]

[OK. I need to talk to you tomorrow at the office.]

Finland's name was called and she rushed to follow the nurse into the doctor's examination room.

"Good evening, Miss Finland. What's your complaint?" asked the doctor after Finland sat down.

Finland was quiet for a while and then pulled something out of her bag.

"I haven't had my period for a few weeks, and 5 days ago I tested with this test pack and the result was positive. I want to confirm whether I am indeed pregnant or not..." Finland placed the test pack on the table with a very sad face. "I live alone and I need to think about what steps I should take if I am indeed pregnant."

The doctor nodded. He had met various patients and Finland was not the first pregnant young girl who came to his office without being accompanied by her husband. That was why he did not seem surprised and his expression stayed the same.

"Then we should just do an ultrasound..."

He told Finland to lie on the hospital bed and then took out an ultrasound machine. After applying the gel to the girl's abdomen, he began to move the scanner and pointed at the screen, telling Finland the results of the ultrasound.

"Congratulations, you are pregnant, and your pregnancy is about 5 weeks old."

Finland bit her lip and nodded. Her mind became foggy and she did not listen to the doctor's next words. She remembered the queasiness in Paris after returning from the hospital to visit Jean. She thought she was still sick and stressed, but after a few days, the nausea did not disappear, and she later realized that she had not had her period for several weeks.

Finally, with extreme caution, she bought a test pack to test whether she was pregnant. Finland was very surprised when she saw the positive result on the pregnancy test kit.

On the one hand, she was very happy because she would have a child, but on the other hand, she was afraid that Caspar would never let her go if he found out that she was pregnant.

She knew how much Caspar wanted to have children with her, which was why she repeatedly threatened Caspar by saying that she would never forgive him if he still stalked Finland.

For the past few days, she had made various attempts to make sure that Caspar kept his promise. She even tried to jump from a tall building to "commit" suicide twice, and no one tried to save her...

This convinced her that Caspar was not watching over her anymore. For that reason, tonight Finland dared to go to the hospital to have her pregnancy checked.

"I'm sorry, Caspar..." Finland whispered sadly as she hurriedly left the hospital. "I can't let you know that you have a child. I'm afraid that you will never let me go... At a time like this, I can't live in anyone's confinement. I really need to be alone..."
