Backup Girl No More: Adios To My V-Card and My First Love

Chapter 29 The expulsion order has been issued .

Theres no chance for appeal .

Ken clutched the paper in his hands and suddenly crumpled to the ground , letting out a guttural cry of anguish .

It felt as though the entire world had turned against him .

Why … Why did this happen ? he muttered , his voice breaking .

Uncle Johnson stood nearby , his expression a mix of disappointment and sorrow .

Child , he said gently , wherever life takes you , learn to live it well .

He placed a hand on Kens shoulder .

Cherish what you have in front of you .

Cherish the people who care for you .

Dont wait until its too late and all youre left with is regret .

Tears streamed down Kens face as his fathers words sank in .

For the first time , he truly understood how foolish he had been .

Three years later , the satellite research base , where Calista worked , achieved a groundbreaking milestone .

The team successfully launched a new generation of satellites equipped with advanced electrical systems , marking an extraordinary achievement in space technology .

Cheers erupted across the base .

The team , overwhelmed with pride and joy , shed tears as they celebrated their shared success .

For that moment , nothing else mattered but the glory they had brought to their country .

After the initial success , the base granted everyone a one month vacation .

Calista and Henry returned to their family home , where warm embraces and fond memories awaited them .

Henrys parents welcomed Calista with open arms , their approval of her as their daughter in law unmistakable .

Henry has cared about you since you were kids , Henrys mother said with a fond smile .

And thank goodness he finally married you .

Henry , feeling embarrassed , scratched the back of his head .

Mom , lets not embarrass me in front of Calista .

Calista laughed , the lighthearted moment easing her .

But that night , as she stood in the hallway , her gaze lingered on the empty room next door .

She sighed , her thoughts drifting .

She had heard bits and pieces about Kens downfall during her My Pinet Love 92.29 % Chapter 29 return .

It saddened her to think of what had become of the Johnson family .

Later , as she lay in bed , Henry noticed her melancholy .

Whats on your mind ? he asked softly .

I want to visit Uncle Johnson , she replied .

He was kind to me for so many years .

I owe him that respect .

Henry nodded .

Thats the right thing to do .

Besides , your husband needs to pay his respects to his father in law too .

Calista shot him a playful glare .

Youre always so good with words .

The next morning , Henry bought a generous assortment of gifts , and the couple visited Uncle Johnson at his modest new home .

Uncle Johnson ! The older man was sitting in the yard , basking in the sun .

When he saw Calista , his eyes lit up with joy .

Calista , youre back ! he exclaimed , rising to greet her .

Henry followed close behind , beaming .

Dad , we brought a few things for you ! Uncle Johnson welcomed them inside , his gratitude and happiness evident .

As they settled in , Calistas eyes fell on a figure in the living room Ken .

The man before her was barely recognizable .

His once proud demeanor was replaced by a disheveled appearance , his beard unkempt , his eyes hollow .

Calista … Kens voice was hoarse , thick with unspoken emotion .

His gaze lingered on her , filled with regret .

Calista , calm and composed , smiled faintly.

Brother , long time no see .

The single word brother hit Ken like a wave , washing him back to the past .

His chest tightened as he noticed her rounded belly .

Youre … pregnant ? he asked hesitantly .

Calista nodded .

Yes , five months along.

Ken swallowed hard .

A thousand words swirled in his mind , but all he could manage was a faint , Congratulations .

92.4 % Chapter 29 The afternoon passed with lighthearted conversation .

Calista spoke animatedly about her work at the research base , her face glowing with happiness and fulfillment .

Ken sat quietly , watching her from afar .

She seemed so distant , as if she existed in a world he could no longer reach .

Before leaving , Calista discreetly handed Uncle Johnson an envelope filled with money .

Take care of yourself , she said softly .

As they walked to the door , Ken followed .

His voice trembled as he spoke .

Calista … She turned to look at him , her expression serene .

Tears welled in his eyes .

You should be happy , he whispered .

Calistas smile was gentle but firm .

Thank you .

I will .

With that , she stepped outside , hand in hand with Henry .

Ken watched her go , standing frozen at the door as her figure faded into the distance .

From that day forward , their paths never crossed again .
