Chapter 102Adriana povWhile waiting for Lyla I was getting nervous had a little scared at the thought that she might not neither shoeing up. I don't know why I thought so, but I had a feeling that's going to happen with the way things were going. I checked the time again and she was not still at the restaurant. I tried reaching her several times but she was not picking my calls.It was getting frustrating and I was losing my cool, I placed an order for both of us and now it's ready. She's still not at the restaurant. I didn't know what else to do or who to reach so that I can get to her. I noticed there was too much notification popping on my phone as I turned on my internet to know what was going on. Shockingly it was Tristan, I can't believe he's giving Lyla what she wants.“Hello.” Lyla said to me with a smile on her face as she walked into the restaurant. I could tell she was very happy after seeing the news on the television. She always has this winning spirit which I kind of

Tristan dad was also inside already but Tristan was not with them, I waited for a while thinking he had something he was doing outside, I went outside and realized he wasn't there. I would ent back into the house and acted like I was not upset. “Mom, did Tristan say he's going ssomewhere?” I asked Tristan mom calmly, she smiled and nodded her head when she heard the question I asked her. I was a little curious to know where he went to but I didn't want it to be too obvious that I was very curious. “Yes, he said he needs to clear his head. You know a lot ha

Chapter 104 Tristan pov After the board meeting, I felt somehow and I just needed a break from everyone and everything, I wanted to go to a place where I could breathe and stop thinking too much about anything. But before I leave I told myself I was going to see Lyla and know what I did wrong to her. At first I thought it was a bad idea but at the same time I thought it'll be better so I asked her so that I can get it out of my chest once and for all. At this point I really wasn't thinking about how Adriana would feel. I just wanted to escape and think of myself alone. Then I suddenly remembered what happened between Adriana and me last night, it felt like I made her do what she didn't want to do because from what I can remember clearly, I'm the one that staffed her closer to me. That's another reason why I can't look at her face right now. She might find me disgusting and don't want to have anything to do with me again, I had so much on my mind and had a misunderstanding with Ad

Chapter 105 Tristan pov “Hello.” Lyla said to me holding her phone and a glass of wine. She turned to look at me and started making a video of both of us. I was too startled at the beginning so I could be say or do anything. I just tried telling her to stop but she didn't listen to me. She found it fun teasing me with such a thing. I had to stand up and leave. When I got to bathroom I tried struggling to remember what happened but I can't seem to weap my head around it because I couldn't remember anything that happened. “What the f*ck is going on!” I yelled angrily while hitting my hand on the wall several times. I walked out of the bathroom and dressed up immediately. “You’re leaving already?” Lyla asked when she saw me dressing up to leave. I was so pissed that I didn't want to hear her voice. I need to know what made me have this sudden amnesia. I walked out of the room angrily after giving her an irritated look so that she can understand that nothing will ever change my

Chapter 106 Adriana pov “Can I be discharged?” I asked the doctor when Tristan mom and dad were in the ward with me, I thought a lot last night and realized I might have to do something i have always hated. I cried so much and it made my eyes look swollen. I just don’t know the step to take but I don’t think I can handle anything on my own right now, it seems harder than I thought. “You can.” The doctor said to me and walked out of the ward. I was pleased to hear what she said, maybe I need a break just like Tristan did. “Adriana!” A loud voice called my name as he opened the door. I was confused for a moment because I never imagined someone would walk into my ward with such a loud tone. Mom and dad jumped from where they were sitting because the way he opened the door was very scary. I turned to look at him and all I wanted was to see the look on his face in the video he sent to me. He comported himself and walked closer to me when he noticed that I was okay and bot in some k

Chapter 107 Adriana pov Listening to Athe way Tristan was talking almost made me fold, I somehow wanted to hear what he has to say, I wanted to see his sincerity and if I can try and trust him. But at the same time I want to be alone, I need to think about everything very well and having that conversation with him is going to distract me, that's what I was trying to avoid. I got to the room and packed my stuffs because apparently Tristan returned to pick me up. While we were heading back home everything seemed a little awkward, he wasn't saying anything to me and I was also very quiet. He obviously decided to respect my decision without putting up a fight which made me unhappy. I expected him to say something to me. We finally got to the house and he helped me out of the car because I was still feeling a little weak to do something on my own. “Thanks.” I said to him, it felt like we were getting to know each other all over again, especially with the honorifics. It felt a little

Chapter 108 Adriana pov “It's good.” I said to him and smiled. Tristan stated at me for a while before letting out a cute and soft smile. “Thanks for finally agreeing to gear me out.” Tristan said to me looking a little very relieved, it seemed like he had been very bothered all these while I revised to speak to him. Tristan told me everything that happened that day and how he's yet to remember what happened after he lost consciousness. It seemed like Lyla was more hard working than I ever imagined. After hearibg everything I decided on what to do. “We haven't made videos in a while.” I said to Trustan and decides to make so much videos with him. I didn't know what I was going to do with so much videos, but I just knew I wanted to make them and feel satisfied. “Let's have breakfast.” Tristan said to me looking more excited than he was earlier. Earlier he was acting too formal but now he seemed to be talking like we have really put everything behind imus, because of my baby, d

Chapter 109 Tristan pov When Adriana dropped the envelope on the dinning, I stopped breathing for some minutes, I was hoping it was some kind of game she was playing because the first thing that cake to my kind is that she was trying to end the marriage, though I was going to use the contract to stop her, but that may lead to a serious misunderstanding. I couldn't say anything to her and I could be luck up the envelope from the dining, I wanted to stop by mom from picking it up too because I was blt ready to know what the content would be. It looked a little too late for for a divorce paper to fit in that's why I was still a little hopeful that it might be a diverse paper, rather it might be something I don't expect it to be. The moment my mom ilebed it I noticed it was not a divorce paper, I was finally able to breath well. I was not curious to know what kind of paper it was, it seemed like a doctor report paper, I stared at Adriana she noticed she actually looked very pale and

It has been a rough time for me and I felt that was my punishment for not being a good daughter. I Knocked on the door twice before my mom finally opened the door. We both stood staring at each other for a while as year's welled down my eyes, even though I struggled not to let it fall, it was beyond my power, its not something I can do. “Look at my baby girl.” My mom said to me and hugged me, I don’t know maybe she was pretending not to know what’s going on or she was truly not aware of everything. I carried my boxes inside the house and sat on the couch. Living in a mansion 7months made me see my house differently, that’s why the rich never live in such apartment it’ll

Chapter 121Lyla povI never knew that things would be so easy for me to be. I always dreamt of a time when things would go so smoothly for me, I keep telling Tristan that the heavens wants us to get her. I hope this will prove to him that I was right after all.I heard from the doctor that the complication was too much and she must not be able to make it out alive so he had to pick between the two. I was a little hurt because Tristan picked her to survive. If he had let her die, things would have been a lot more easier. Just when I thought the fun was over I got the news last night that Adriana left the house, she said her final goodbye when the family was having dinner. I was so happy by the news that I didn't know what to do had how to express my joy so I ended up throwing myself a party. “Today will be such a good day.” I muttered to jyseif with a glass of wine with me, I found myself missing Diego, he would have been here with me celebrating my wins but he just had to go and be

But in yet to know what's on her mind and what she has concluded on doing.We haven't seen each other for two days since the news has been trending, I decided to give her space so that she can think clearly and know what decision to take, I'm not going to force her into doing something she's not interested in doing. My mom and dad has also been avoiding both of us, they no longer treat Adriana with love like they used to because they feel betrayed and fooled. I never knew things will get to this stage.

Chapter 119Tristan povI was in the kitchen making myself coffee when I heard my phone ring, surprisingly it was my P.A.“Why is he calling? How didn't I tell him I want to stay away from work for a while?” I hesitated before I finally picked his call. “Why are you?” I was about to vent when I heard what he said to me. “What are you talking about?” I asked to confirm if what I heard was correct or I was already hearing things. I was left dumbfounded when he confirmed what he said to me, I can't believe Lyla went through my belongings when she was here. “I'll go see how things are on the internet.” I said to him and ended the call. I felt like my heart was sinking just thinking about what will happen after the news has been exposed. Then I suddenly remembered mom and dad might be with their phone. I stood up and rushed upstairs so that I could get to them before they saw the news. The moment I got to the room I sighted my mom with her phone, she looked startled with her eyes open

Chapter 118Adriana povI stared at Tristan for a while but he was not saying anything to me, he just looked like he was struggling not to cry. “Pls talk to me, what's going on? And why am I here?” I asked Tristan whilst I was still looking at his face. Tristan face could already make it obvious to me that there's something wrong but he's not ready to talk to me about it. “Hey, what matters the most is your health, you need to get better first.” Tristan said to me trying to avoid the question I asked him. I could already figure out from the way he was behaving that there's something wrong but no matter how many times I ask he's not going to answer me. I turned facing the other side of the flom so that Tristan will know that I'm upset he's lying. It's very obvious that he was avoiding the truth and no later what the problem is I know that I deserve to be told the truth. Time was slowly fading and I was still in the hospital. Still wondering why I'm laying on the bed, Tristan has no

Chapter 117Adriana pov“Hey.” I said to Tristan when I sighted him sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee with him. He turned to look at me and smiled. “How are you doing?” He asked me with a brother's smile on his face. It’s been a while since Tristan stayed long at home, so it was kind of weird having him at home today.“I’m doing great.” I replied to him excitedly and sat on the couch beside him. Tristan looked like he was very invested in what he was reading so I didn’t think it was the right time to talk to him about what happened yesterday.We were both quiet for a while, I was still sitting there thinking of how to start the conversation but I couldn’t think of any better way to bring it up. “Lyla was here.” Tristan paused what he was doing the moment he heard what I said, don’t know if my tonight was right but I just had to say something to him. “Was she allowed inside the house? I remember warning them not to let her in.” He said to me looking very worried, it felt goo

Lyla povI stormed into my car and drove away when I realized no matter how long I stand there I will not be allowed to enter the house. I hated myself so much for coming in the first place, I should have listened to my instinct when I thought of not coming. I hit my car several times angrily and rested my head on the car stirring. I hate this feeling so much. “I hate Tristan.” I muttered to myself struggling not to cry because as much as I wanted to blame Tristan I also realized that somehow I am to blame for what’s going on, if I had not left the house that day, things would have been very different from what it is right now. I picked my phone to place a call across to Diego, then I remembered our last conversation, I realized that calling him will not be a good decision so it’s better I don't do it. I started the car and drove away. After a long ride I stopped at my favorite bar and walked in, my sim was to drink till I couldn't move anymore, I just needed to clear my head from

Chapter 115Lyla povI can't believe that after we agreed on keeping it a secret Adriana ended up posting it on the net, I told my tech specialist to check who uploaded it and the moment I find out that Adriana uploaded it I'm not going to let her get away with it, I'll make sure to teach her the biggest lesson of her life. “I'll sure make her pay for making me go through so much.” I muttered to myself as I was pacing around the room. I couldn't stop thinking of a way to stop the rumors from spreading even wider, because the news seems like the rumor is about to stop and it gets even worse. I picked up my phone after reading a very horrible comment about me that was posted. “What is taking you so long?” I shouted at the young man angrily because based on discussion he's supposed to be done closing the news that was spreading, he keeps saying he's doing something but he's not doing anything. I was totally losing my cool and I feared that's what Tristan and Adriana wanted. I picked

Chapter 114 Lyla povI can’t believe that I was already losing to those two, they have turned me into a pawn that they can talk to anyhow they like and anytime they want. The last conversation I had with Tristan hurt me so much that I really wanted to punch him in the face so that he could feel the same pain I was feeling.Earlier today I met with Doctor Alice, she is my very good friend and we became friends when I was married to Tristan.“It’s been a while.” We said to each other with a smile on our faces. She liked me because I was calm and sweet and I’m going to be the same way here too, I’m going to be calm and sweet in her presence.“I was on Coma for years and I missed out on a lot of fun and even my husband. I said in a very low and pitiful tone, then I decided to start acting emotional so that I can gain her pity before saying what I want to say to her.“I’m sorry, it’s just that life has been really hard on me.” I said to her and wiped my tears. Doctor Alice felt pity toward
