Snowstorm of Our Past

In the third year of Ariel Slater's remarriage with Remi Callahan, she realizes that she's pregnant with his baby.

As his wife, she does her utmost best to avoid getting into fights with him.

Whenever Remi comes home late, Ariel no longer welcomes him home at the door.

When Remi gets absolutely wasted at his business meetings, all Ariel does is command the household staff to prepare a hangover tonic for him.

Remi is very busy with work, so it's rare for him to come home. Even so, Ariel doesn't use the landline in the family compound to call him.

When she's eight months pregnant, Ariel discovers a tube of ointment in Remi's coat that's not hers. But she merely puts it back in his pocket without saying a word.

One day, when Ariel visits the maternity hospital next to the family compound for a prenatal check-up, she comes across an incident that humiliates her to no end.

Two nurses happen to walk out of a ward at that time. As they walk down the corridor, they chat among themselves.

"Mr. Callahan cares about Ms. Reed a lot. The moment she gives birth to a son, he's quick to book her the best single-person ward in this hospital."

"I heard that Ms. Reed is the widow of Mr. Callahan's dead mentor. He takes good care of Ms. Reed, that's for sure. Not only does he keep her company in the day, but he also refuses to go home at night. He really is a caring man."

Even though the nurses keep their voices low, Ariel still hears every word as clear as day.

As she stares at Remi, who's speaking with his colleague, Ella Reed, while cradling her newborn, she feels her eyes reddening against her will.

She decides to file for a divorce from him right there and then. This time, she will never remarry him, no matter what.

"Mr. Callahan, congratulations! You've got a big, healthy baby boy!"

"If Ariel's having a daughter, you'd have the perfect pair!"

"Ariel probably doesn't know about this child's existence, does she?"

Several men stood in the hospital room, all close friends of Remi Callahan's. Hearing this, Remi's expression grew more serious.

"Of course she doesn't know. And none of you are allowed to say a word to her. She's in her third trimester. She can't handle any emotional distress right now."

"So when are you planning to tell her? You can't keep this hidden forever."

Remi stayed silent for a moment before speaking with quiet certainty. "After she gives birth. Once she has the baby, she won't leave."

"Will this make things difficult for you?" The woman lying in the hospital bed spoke softly.

"Remi, I never expected anything in the first place. After losing Franklin, just being able to stay by your side and give
