Publisher's Synopsis
The skies darken, winds howl, and thunder cracks through the heavy rain-nature's fury unleashed without warning, much like a woman's temper.
Sweat beads on Gao Mingshan's forehead as he grips the wheel, his silver Lexus tearing through the storm in a desperate race against time. Anyone witnessing such reckless speed in this weather might think he had a death wish.
But death was the furthest thing from his mind. As the chairman of the prestigious Gao Group, his empire thrived, his wife Fang Xiujuan was both stunning and kind, and his life seemed perfect. Yet now, all of that was reduced to a single, urgent mission-to bring his wife home safely before their child arrived prematurely.
Beside him, Xiujuan clutched her swollen belly, her pale face betraying the pain ripping through her body. Her muffled groans barely escaped through gritted teeth.
"Just hold on, my love, we're almost home. My mother will help deliver the baby-don't worry," Mingshan reassured her, his voice fractured with fear. The baby wasn't due for another month. Just yesterday, a routine ultrasound confirmed everything was normal. So how had things changed so suddenly?
Their trip home had been meant as a peaceful visit, a chance to see his aging parents and bring back their daughter, who had spent a month in the countryside. But fate had other plans-Xiujuan's contractions struck, and the skies turned merciless.
