Same night when Averill signed the divorce papers.

When Noah went out of the house, she slumped to the floor. ‘It finally gave up, huh?’ she thought as she stared at her trembling knees.

A tear fell from her eyes… then a fall followed it through. She cried and wept as she reminisced the days they spent together. All the sweet kisses at night, the hugs that warm her cold being… all the wishes she prayed every night are now shattered.

He still complied with the contract they had.

One year.

One year and it’s all over.

One year and they’ll divorce each other. Funny how Averill thought it would be different the moment Noah looked at her with caring eyes, asking her to date him. It was all nonsense. Maybe Noah was just appeasing himself with the loss of their child or maybe because he knew that Yanna was planning to marry John Hulson and he needed someone to replace her temporarily.

Averill had all these thoughts while holding her knees close to her body.

After a while, she received

    Averill’s POV“What did you just say?” I could feel my hand trembling as the doctor relayed her diagnosis to me. SHe looked at me, confused. I sat properly from the bed and again, asked her, “Can you repeat that for me, doctor?” I asked again, tearing up.I can’t believe what I just heard and I need her to tell it to me again.“You’re four weeks pregnant, Ms. Hursen,”I don’t know how I went home after that. I looked at my phonebook but I don’t have anyone whom I wanna tell this news to. I put my phone back in my pocket and stared at my messy room. It has been a month since I divorced Noah and it also has been a month since I lived in seclusion.Not that secluded though.My father insisted that I live in his penthouse in New York so I had no choice but to comply. Good thing I agreed since it would be hard to find a property appropriate for my soon to be child…I touched my belly, but there is really nothing to feel there besides my skinny tummy. Jeez, I had nothing but junk and alcoho

    “It’s the first time I invited you out of the country after a month so don’t make a face, Noah,” Brian scowled at him. They are currently attending a wedding party of Brian’s cousin. “Why the hell should I even be here?”“Ask your secretary because he nagged me to beg you to come,”“Should I fire him?” Noah sighed. He looked around the ocean of people but there was no one that caught his interest. No one until a woman in a black evening gown appeared from the entrance. She immediately caught Noah’s eyes but she’s still talking with a woman.Noah felt his heart racing like a horse as he looked at her. No. This should not be it. He should not feel like this. No. Get a hold of yourself, Noah Dalton. You are here to enjoy the party, stop staring at her!Noah wanted to come forward and ditched the women who’s surrounding him but he stopped making another step when he saw the woman clinging her arm to another man’s arm.Noah frowned at them but she does not even look her way. He felt his b

    “Averill! Thank God, you scared us, you know that??” Averill stared at the ceiling like it was a familiar one. Ahh, she’s in the hospital. She felt suffocated with that fact, she had come to hate hospitals after everything she’d been through.“What happened?”“We looked for you after you disappeared with Noah and found you lying in pain in a room. Noah was not there, where did he go? He just left you like that even knowing that you’re pregnant with his child—”“He did not believe me… he did not even hear me out.” Averill smiled sadly at Reese. The woman frowned and looked away, “Sorry, Avi.”“We should have not insisted that you come along,” she looked at her with eyes full of regret and worry. Averill chuckled at her, “Silly. It was my decision and besides, I think I won. You should have seen Noah’s face when I told him I should go back to acting,” Averill elaborated what really happened that night.Reese could only laugh with her as she hid her dejected feelings toward the woman she

    “Welcome to Vienne Hotel,” Leon smiled brightly as he shook hands with some powerful men and women across the country. He flashed a humble smile as he guided them inside the conference room. They all gathered here to invest in the company and they were glad, seeing a competent man talking with them.There is no one who hasn't heard of Leonardo Hugo Selestial. The man who aced the H*rvard Law School and almost got the perfect score in bar exam. Though they all questioned his decision on not starting his own firm but rather lie low for quite a long while.And just recently, they heard that he is someone who leads this company… well, on the surface that is. The CEO is still Averill Hursen which is a mystery to many.“Well, the pay here is way better and I still am practicing law with some clients who offered me skyrocketed amounts,” he laughed. Karl who had the same situation where he stays for the great pay smiled by Noah’s side.They all gathered here to tackle the business matter but

    “You never changed, Averill.”“And you never matured, Mr. Noah Dalton.” Leon, who was silently listening to the billionaire’s insults to his employer, stepped in. He glared at Noah and the latter frowned at him. Who is he to interfere? Not because his business is rising, he would have the privilege to freely talk to Noah and the billionaire felt irritated by that fact.He does not like it when someone speaks with him without his permission.“Mind you brown business, Leon Selestial.”“And here I thought you’d be a good business partner since Averill thinks highly of you in regards with business. You are nothing but an arrogant man who still acts petty after divorcing your wife. Let me clear one fact for you, Dalton. You divorced Averill.” Noah clenched his jaw, controlling his anger. He has had really bad anger issues since Averill left.“Leon,” the man glanced at Averill and looked away. If only his boss was half jerk as Noah, it would have been a better fight. But Averill is differe

    [Mowmy, when are you gonna be howm? Hmm?] Niana rolled over the bed while holding her phone. She pouted at Averill and she laughed at her hilarious, cute, little face.“Mom still needs to finish some things over here, baby,” Averill explained, she then switched the camera, showing all the toys she bought for her daughter. The kid on the other line jumped in excitement as she called Shaun over her side to look at the toys.[I have a lot too, Niana,] the grumpy boy told her and he pulled her to his side and lied down. [Let’s sleep. Mom said we’ll get taller if we sleep early,] Averill chuckled at the maturity of the two-year old boy. He’s just three months younger than her daughter but he acts like he’s the older brother most of the time.The kid pouted but nodded at him. She then glanced at her mother and smiled brightly, [I’m gonna go and get taller, mommy! Don’t take too long or I’d be taller than you when you come back hihi,] “Ohh, I won’t be here for long, baby. Go and sleep, list

    (Around the time when Averill left the country.)“Come on, son! What the hell are you doing?” Lea scolded Noah. Brian looked at them, he was going to call Karl but Lea was coincidentally within the building. Noah is hell drunk and it’s just the morning. He asked Brian to drink with him but when he got there, Noah was already drunk, surrounded by a couple of paid women.“You can go now, Brian,” she did not even glance at the man. Brian gulped and nodded before taking his leave. If there was someone who could make him back to his senses, it’s Lea Hills-Dalton, one of the few people he feared.“Oh, it’s my mother who forced me to marry that wench, hic,” Noah is really drunk. If not, he would not point his finger at his mother. Lea mentally slapped her forehead and then took her phone from her pocket. It would be a scandal if someone would see her son in this state. Not when the news of his divorce already spread throughout the country.Some are saying he got tired of Averill while others

    “Where are we going mowmy?” Niana asked, still yawning. Even her eyes are half opened as she tries to keep them wide to look at her mother.“We’re going on a vacation, baby,” Averill told her. “But, you just came back! Aren’t you tired?” Niana hugged her arm, Averill is currently sitting on the bed, packing up their things. She smiled at the silliness of her daughter and picked her up. Averill laid Niana on her lap as she stroked her hair with her fingers.“I would never get tired if it’s for you, Niana,” Averill kissed Niana’s forehead. The child has fallen asleep already. It’s no surprise though, she was playing with Shiloah’s son for hours earlier with the toys Averill bought. No wonder she was this tired.“Wha

    Noah woke up early and left the villa before even Averill got up from bed. He left a note on the table and a massive box in the living room. He drove to a building not too far from the villa he bought. “You look relaxed. Are you even sure about this?” Karl asked him. Brian and the gang are also there, preparing for Noah’s wedding. The man in his white tuxedo smirked, “Never been sure in my whole life, Karl.” “Tsk.” He went to his stylist and asked for a perm. Brian went beside Noah and tapped his shoulder, “You need to buy me a yacht if she doesn’t say yes.” “That woman loves me. You buy me twenty-five percent of the shares in your new business.” “That’s pretty— tsk, deal. Might as well be your wedding gift.” He followed and excused himself after receiving a call. Noah smirked, realizing who called his casanova friend. “Clayton,” “I will attend your marriage. I just need to finish this.” “That’s why you should have told her what you felt.” He stared at Noah and ignored him after

    Averill’s POVI was busy reading through the reports about my hotel. I had left it to Leon for a long while. Funny how I told him he was fired, but he kept coming to the company and managed it while I was busy doing things for myself. I would have never come this far without him.“Coffee?” Leon asked. He placed a hot coffee macchiato on my desk. He could pass as a barista, if not a lawyer. I thanked him without looking at him because my eyes were still busy reading. I can’t help but focus on these things.“I heard about his proposal,” I stopped scanning through the files, looked at him, and smiled. I raised my brows, waiting for what he would say next. “Why did you reject him?”“Do I need a reason not to?”“You love him—”“How’d you know that?” I smiled. Leon stared at me before looking away, putting down his coffee. “When you fired me, you were too emotional. Aren’t you being emotional as well when you rejected his marriage proposal? I thought you loved him and that you sacrificed

    “I love you,” Noah muttered as he kissed her deeply. He kissed her passionately, moving his lips gently as he caressed the back of her head. Noah continued until the two of them were out of breath.He stared at her golden eyes, “I love you, Avi.” he repeated, claiming her lips once more. “I love you,” he whispered between their kisses. Averill tried to push him, but he gently pulled her to his chest.He hugged her and buried her face in his body. “I love you.” Again, he told her. Averill still has yet to respond to him. Noah loosened the hug as he gently held her shoulders.Noah looked at her and wiped the tears that fell from her eyes. His thumb gently against her cheek as tears fell from his pitch black eyes as well… like crystals under that sunny afternoon… they cried.“A-Are you c-crying?” Niana approached the two of them. Noah and Averill looked at their daughter, who was also about to cry, confused as to why her parents were weeping. They smiled, gently slipping their hands agai

    Noah’s POV I stared at my daughter, sleeping soundly on my lap. She had played all day with the dog we brought from Hawaii. We’re currently in the UK. Thankfully, she wasn’t looking for her mother much. I just won’t have any more excuses had she asked once more. I have a hunch on where Averill might be, but I want to give her more time. I don’t know why she had not even met with Niana. I know she loves our daughter. I know she loves her with all her heart and won’t abandon her. No way that is not the Averill that I know. The Averill that I fell in love with has so many flaws… but she’s not an irresponsible mother. She’s sometimes selfless to the point where even I would pity her helplessness. Averill is a woman who would not care even though she’s hurt. And she’s also the type of woman who would stand firm if anyone vital to her was hurt. I did not love her because she was perfect but rather because she was so perfectly imperfect that even though her flaws were visible, her pure

    Averill woke up with someone stroking her hair. “Noah?” Surprised, she saw Noah beside her, sitting on the bed. Looking at her, smiling with his teeth. “Good morning, Avi.” “Avi?” Averill looked at Leon, who was currently feeding her. It had been a day since she was admitted. She fainted after donating blood to Noah while she was injured. “Did Noah wake up?” Leon shook his head. He tried feeding her again, but Averill looked away. “You need to eat.” “I did my best. Why is he not waking up?” “His body needs rest, Averill. And you do too. Eat, I am begging you.” “I’m not hungry.” Leon sighed at her response. After fainting from fatigue, she did not sleep a wink overnight. She would have stayed by Noah’s door if she had not fallen to the floor. Waiting for the man to wake up. Noah’s grandfather came later that evening. He deliberately stopped Averill from coming to Noah’s room. He was so mad when he heard what had happened to his grandson. “I told you enough to get away from my

    Leon drove as fast as he could when he heard the news about Averill. He could not believe they had just left the woman there. He heard about Noah’s condition but still! Was it too hard to get the woman as well? Leon parked recklessly in front of the cafe. Some men barged in his direction, attacking him with metal pipes, but he was way faster than these men. He punched and kicked and pushed… It took him five minutes before he could enter the facility. And his blood boiled when he saw Averill looking so lost in one corner. He scanned the room, and there was Kyle, looking at Isabella fiercely. Looked like they had an argument. “WHO KILLED MY DAUGHTER?!” Isabella shouted. Leon looked around again and saw a woman lying dead on the floor. ‘So she died. What a waste.’ Leon thought, thinking about the charges he could have done to put the woman forever behind bars. “You’re still thinking of Yanna in this situation? For Pete's sake, Isabella! They are holding you as their hostage!” “I do

    Kyle’s eyes were sharp as he stared at the woman’s crying face. His jaw clenched as he gritted his teeth. He could feel his muscles tremble in anger. Why is another man touching what was his? Why are they touching Isabella? What is going on here? He could not think straight. He stared at the gun in his hand and looked at the three people that were left on his side. In an instant, he pointed the gun at them. Karl was alarmed by his sudden movement but was immediately caught off guard when Kyle killed the three remaining people on his side. Why? Why did he kill them? Karl could not wrap it around his head. Why would Kyle Jackson kill these people when they are his allies? This is crazy. Kyle Jackson is an absolute madman with lots of screws lost in his head. Karl signaled his men to approach Averill and Noah. Kyle is yet to notice them. He is still busy looking at the men which he killed. “One more step, and you’ll follow them.” Karl’s men halted. Was he watching? Jackson was watch

    Averill looked at him with wide eyes. She could feel her entire body go cold as she trembled hands touched Noah. “Are you okay?” Noah asked, still worrying about the woman, albeit the circumstance. “What are you even saying? Why did you do that?” She cried, Averill saw Yanna pointing the gun at her, but Noah was too fast to cover her from the bullet. And in a blink of an eye. Everything happened. “No… no… no, no, no, NO!!” Everyone looked at Kyle when he started acting odd. His eyes shake as he stares at the two people on the floor. One is covered in blood while the other is covered in tears. Kyle’s hands were shaking. He pulled his hair and glared at Yanna. “You! “How dare you!” he shouted. “How dare you touch my target!” His eyes were dark as he pinned his nails on Yanna’s arms. He could see nothing but the fact that Yanna pulled the trigger against Averill, and it hit Noah. His targets were touched by another person. Kyle is this type of crazy person. He never wanted anyone t

    Mason did not move, Kyle was too swift that he did not notice him in front of him and grabbed his gun. They fought with each other as Kyle’s men started swarming with the other men that were left in Noah’s group. Chaos started to sip in, plates and glasses were shattered. Tables were wrecked. Chairs were thrown.It was total chaos inside while the men fought each other. Noah hugged Averill in one corner. “You should have not said that. You were provoking him!” “Why are we here, Noah?”“What?”“We’re here to get Yanna. But what are you doing?” Averill looked at him. She pushed him away from her. “Stop protecting me. When we learned about Kyle, we expected this already, that’s why we asked Shiloah to bring her to New York.”“Averill—”“If you’re gonna tell me to be careful. I am. I am already doing that so stop being a coward. We just need Yanna. You’ve let her loose for so long.” She stood up and walked away, she grabbed a stick and went her way to Yanna.Kyle was there, sitting by th
