Love In Trauma's
Complicated situation

Gina comforts Leana. She could not accept this pregnancy. It feels like Leana's life has been ruined to the bottom. His future is over. He hated Max. That man made his life like this.

"Miss.. are you not ready to be a mother?" gina asked after Leana's crying subsided.

Leana nodded. She doesn't want herself to get pregnant. She also does not want to marry someone who has damaged her.

Gina hugged the anxious and nervous looking woman. Gina doesn't understand Max and Leana's story. But, it seems to be related to Leana's trauma. From Marco and Vero's talk, Gina catches little if Max does anything to Leana.

Leana is a kind and friendly woman. Gina does not have the heart of Leana who must be in touch with both the Scotts family men as well as creepy in-laws. Is Leana able to survive?

"Master Max said he's not coming home tonight. So you don't have to worry."

"Where is he?" lea asked with a sob.

"I don't understand. Maybe Mr. Max wants you to calm down, miss."

"Bi, I want to eat toast." Lea wiped her tears. She was so hungry after hours of crying. Gina looked at her watch. 12 O'clock at night. This must be Leana's baby.

"Okay, I'll find you first, miss." Gina got out of bed. He would, of course, ask Max to get Leana some toast. He should be responsible to his wife and children.

Meanwhile, Leana rubbed her still flat stomach. Is she really pregnant? Why did he have to experience all this?

Leana's phone rang out Leana's daydream. Ericka's calling..

"Lea, I'll be there soon." "Max told me to go home and bring you some toast." Ericka spoke in a raucous voice.

"Don't bother Rick." reject Leana. He knows that Ericka must have gone to sleep.

"No, I'm home alone too. So maybe I'll stay there."

"Thanks Rick's. Sorry you're so bothered."

Leana hung up the phone with a much calmer feeling. He's happy that Ericka's here. There's a lot Lea wants to tell Ericka.

"Max, stop." Marco took a bottle of drink in Max's hand.

Unaccepting Max tries to take it from Marco who has kept away his vodka bottle.

"Remember, you can't go to the hospital anymore. Ericka can beat me up." Marco recalled to his sister who was so easy to change his mood. Max looks desperate right now. He must be in the down/depression phase. What makes Max like this?

"Max, is there a problem?"

"Don't care about me. It's all because of you." Max manages to take the bottle of drink in Marco's hand. But Marco pulled it back so that there was an interesting attraction between the two brothers.

'PRANG' the bottle fell to the floor.

"Patience, Max." Marco tried to calm down. He used to face Max like this.

"She's pregnant" said Max.

"Emmm..Nice dong." Marco tidied up his tangled clothes because of Max.

Max glanced at Marco. Marco's thoughts were sometimes very different. He doesn't know what Marco calls 'good'.

"Max, take the positive side. You'll have children and Mom will be happy. He's not going to bully Leana anymore." explained Marco who saw Max's bewildered face.

"The problem is that it's not my son." "How many times have I told you that I wasn't the one who desecrated Leana." Max explained in frustration. She grabbed her hair to reduce the pain that appeared on her head.

"What's my fault until I have to go through this, Ko?"

Marco was silent for a moment. He saw Max crying like a child. It will be very difficult for Max to be calm in the present situation. So, Marco will allow Max to do as he pleases.

"Max, maybe in this way, you can prove that the child is not your child and you are not the one who desecrated Leana. Do a DNA test after the child is born" Marco said as Max began to stop crying. "Please have patience with Max."

The phone next to Max rang. Ericka's calling..

Max immediately picked up the phone from his doctor. "Have you arrived home?" ask Max listlessly. Gina called and told me that Leana was grilled toast. Max, who can't do anything, calls Ericka to buy toast and accompanies Leana at home. Leana must have been shocked by the news of this pregnancy. So, calling Ericka home is the best move.

"She's asleep" Ericka replied half in a whisper. "The toast is only eaten in one piece. I think he wants you to buy him."

Max chimed in with a cynical smile. "You said that because you don't want to go back and forth to be asked for help, right?" "Just calm down Rick, if he's cravings again, I'll just tell Gina."

"Max.. You're all right? Where are you now?"

"I'm at the cafe with Marco. You take it easy."

"Thank God. Max, just go home. Leana won't kick you out."

"meaning?" max was confused.

"Leana told me she was sad because you just disappeared." "You're like a coward who doesn't want to be responsible."

"But I married her." Max replied lethargic.

"Yes, but now your wife is pregnant." "I told you, make him fall in love with you. Why are you running away? If she's pregnant then you can't be happy?"

"He's traumatized by me, Rick."

"Dear Lord Max, Lea told me she's going to keep the baby and try to accept you for the sake of your child."

"He's not a..."

"Yes, I know Max. Let's just say he's your son. Leana believes that you are the one who desecrated her, so in Lea's eyes, you are her father. Please understand Lea's point of view. After his trauma recovers, he will definitely be aware and know the true events in the warehouse." explained Ericka at length. Max-Leana's case was the toughest in his entire career. Both of them were traumatized and met as husband and wife in complicated circumstances. Ericka only hopes that Max and Leana can treat their trauma with love between the two.
