DAVINA’S POVI was sitting in the cafe, sipping on my latte and scrolling through my phone when I saw Mira Rose walk in with the newspaper in her hand. She came over to my table and said, "Girl, have you seen this?"She unfolded the newspaper and showed me the front page with the headline that read, "#MultibillionaireGirlfriend." The picture below it was of Raiden with Karla, arm in arm, smiling at the camera. I felt a pang of jealousy in my chest and I couldn't help but feel hurt that he had moved on so quickly.I tried to keep a straight face and nonchalantly responded, "Oh, that. Yeah, I saw it."I couldn't believe it. My heart sank as I saw the paparazzi photos of Raiden and Karla. I tried to play it off like it didn't bother me, but deep down, I was jealous. How could he move on so quickly after everything we had been through?Mira Rose could tell something was wrong, and she handed me the newspaper with a concerned look on her face. "Davina, what's going on? Is everything okay?"
DAVINA’S POVAs I sit here in my quiet and empty house, I can't help but feel guilty for how I treated Ignacio earlier. He was just trying to be there for me and show me that he cares, but instead of being grateful, I lashed out at him.I know the paparazzi photos of Raiden with that woman shouldn't bother me, but they do. I can't help but feel jealous and insecure, especially since Raiden and I have been having some issues lately. And now, to see him with another woman, it just makes me feel like I wasn't enough for him.But that's not fair to Ignacio. He's been nothing but supportive of me since we started dating. He's always there when I need him, always trying to make me feel better. And here I am, taking my frustration out on him.I need to apologize to him. I need to make it right. I can't keep hurting the people who care about me. It's not fair to them, and it's not fair to me either. I don't want to be the kind of person who pushes people away and hurts those who love me.So t
RAIDEN’S POVAs we sat in the office, Davina and I focused solely on our business. The events of the past few weeks had taken a toll on me, but I was determined to put it all behind me and concentrate on the success of our restaurant."So, about the new menu," Davina began, flipping through some papers. "I was thinking we could add some more seafood options. Maybe some lobster dishes?"I nodded, "Yeah, that's a good idea. And we could also do some fusion dishes, like a blend of Asian and Mediterranean cuisine."Davina smiled, "I like that. It's unique and will definitely draw in more customers."We spent the next hour going over the details of the new menu, making sure everything was perfect. It felt good to have something to focus on, something to take my mind off the chaos of my personal life.As we wrapped up our meeting, Davina turned to me, "You seem better today. Is everything okay?"I hesitated for a moment, debating whether or not to tell her about my trip to Dubai with Karla.
RAIDEN’S POVI took a deep breath before speaking, knowing that what I was about to say would be difficult for both of us. Davina looked at me expectantly, waiting for me to continue. I took her hands in mine and looked into her eyes, wanting her to know that what I was about to say came from the bottom of my heart."Davina, I need to be honest with you. I love you, and it hurts me to see you with someone else. But I also know that I can't force you to be with me, and I don't want to interfere in your relationship anymore."Davina's expression changed from confusion to sadness as she realized what I was saying. "Raiden, what are you saying? Are you giving up on us?"I shook my head. "No, I'm not giving up on us. But I can't keep fighting for something that might not make you happy. If being with Ignacio is what you want, then I'll let you go. I want you to be happy, even if it's not with me."Davina's eyes filled with tears as she looked down at our intertwined hands. "Raiden, I don't
DAVINA’S POVStaying in the house without Raiden just isn't the same. It's boring, quiet, and I'm constantly annoyed. But I can't help it. I miss him. We used to be so close, inseparable even. But then everything changed.It all started when Raiden became distant. I didn't know what was going on at first, but then I found out he had been seeing someone else. It was like a punch to the gut. We had been together for so long, and he just threw it all away.I didn't know what to do, so I turned to my best friend Ignacio for support. We spent more and more time together, and before I knew it, I was falling for him. He was always there for me, making me laugh and helping me forget about Raiden.But part of me wonders if I made the right choice. Ignacio is great, but he's not Raiden. He doesn't understand me like Raiden did. And now, here I am, stuck in this house with nothing but my thoughts and my regrets. I don't know if I'll ever be able to move on from Raiden, or if I even want to.I tr
RAIDEN’S POVAs I moved out of Davina's house, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. I had grown so used to seeing her every day that the idea of being apart from her felt unbearable. But I knew that I had to focus on myself and my own life, and try to move on from her.I tried to keep myself busy with various activities, hoping that it would distract me from thoughts of Davina. I spent long hours reading books, losing myself in the stories and characters. I immersed myself in different genres, from suspenseful mysteries to heartwarming romance novels. It was a welcome escape from reality, but it only lasted for so long.When I wasn't reading, I tried to engage in different hobbies. I took up cooking, trying out new recipes and perfecting my favorite dishes. I went on long walks in the park, enjoying the fresh air and beautiful scenery. I started a journal, pouring out my thoughts and feelings onto the pages. But despite all these distractions, I found myself still thinking of Dav
RAIDEN’S POVI drove to Gaven's apartment again the next day, feeling a sense of comfort in knowing that I had someone to talk to who understood what I was going through. Gaven greeted me at the door with a smile and a pat on the back."Hey, brother. How are you feeling today?" he asked."I'm feeling a little better, actually," I replied. "I've been thinking a lot about what you said yesterday, about taking some time for myself and focusing on what makes me happy."Gaven nodded, looking pleased. "That's great to hear. Have you given any thought to where you might want to go on a trip?"I shook my head. "Not yet. But that's something I'm definitely considering.""Good," he said, his expression serious. "You need to take care of yourself first and foremost. And don't let anyone tell you otherwise."I smiled, feeling grateful for his support. "Thanks, Gaven. I really appreciate your advice and your friendship. And speaking of that, I wanted to talk to you about something else.""Okay, sh
DAVINA’S POVIt's been a while since I started dating Ignacio, and though he's a really nice guy, I can't help but feel like there's something missing. He's always so sweet and caring, and he's always there for me when I need him. But, I can't seem to shake the feeling that there's something more out there for me.I mean, don't get me wrong, I know I shouldn't be looking for excitement in my relationships, but I can't help it. I crave adventure, and Ignacio just doesn't give me that. Every day feels like the same routine, and I'm starting to get bored.I miss the thrill of being with someone like Raiden. Sure, he was a bit of a wild card, but that's what made him exciting. Being with him was like being on a rollercoaster, and I loved every second of it. But, things didn't work out between us, and I know I need to move on.I just wish I could find that same spark with Ignacio. Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm the problem. Maybe I'm just not cut out for a stable, predictable relationship.
DAVINA POVAs soon as Raiden walked into the hall, my heart skipped a beat. I couldn't take my eyes off him, even though I knew I shouldn't be looking at him. The tension in the hall was palpable, and I could feel the stares of everyone on me, wondering what I was thinking. I tried to focus on Ignacio, but I could feel his anger burning through his eyes when he saw me looking at Raiden.I knew I shouldn't be feeling this way. I had made my decision to marry Ignacio, and I needed to stick to it. But seeing Raiden again, after all that had happened between us, brought back so many memories and feelings that I had buried deep inside. It was like my heart was at war with my mind.As the wedding ceremony began, I tried to focus on Ignacio, but my mind kept wandering back to Raiden. I could feel his presence in the room, even though he was standing at the back. It was like he was calling out to me, begging me to change my mind and run away with him.I knew I couldn't do that. I had to go th
DAVINA’S POVI couldn't believe the day had come, it was my wedding day. I was dressed up in the most beautiful dress, adorned with stones, and it fitted me perfectly, like it was made for me. Mira Rose had done an incredible job with it, she had a way of making everything perfect. But as I looked at myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but feel sad, my smile was nowhere to be found. I was about to marry a man I didn't love, it was tearing me apart.Mira Rose could sense my unease and tried to comfort me. "You look beautiful, Davina, like a true queen," she said as she helped me adjust my veil. "But are you sure you want to go through with this? I can see the sadness in your eyes."I took a deep breath before answering, "I don't know, Mira Rose. I feel like I'm making a mistake, but I can't break Ignacio's heart. He's been nothing but kind to me, and I don't want to hurt him."Mira Rose gave me a sympathetic smile and held my hands, "I understand how you feel, Davina, but this is you
RAIDEN’S POVAs I approached Davina's house, I couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness wash over me. This was it, the end of an era. I was here to say my final goodbye to the woman I loved, the woman I could never have. I knocked on the door, my heart pounding in my chest, and waited for her to answer.When Davina opened the door, I could see the shock in her eyes. But she quickly composed herself and asked me if I had forgotten something. I shook my head, telling her that I was there to say goodbye and apologize to her for all the pain I had caused her.I couldn't believe I was sitting here, at this dinner table, with her. It felt like a dream. Everything about her was so familiar, yet so distant. As we ate in silence, I felt my heart racing with anticipation. This could be our final moment together, and I wanted to make it count."Raiden," she spoke softly, breaking the silence. Her voice sent shivers down my spine, and I turned to face her, eager to hear what she had to say."I k
DAVINA’S POVI was sitting alone in my living room when the doorbell rang. I hesitated for a moment, wondering who it could be, but when I opened the door, I saw that it was Gaven, Raiden's best friend."Hey Davina," he said, stepping into my apartment. "Can we talk for a minute?"I nodded, closing the door behind him. "Sure, what's up?"Gaven took a seat on the couch across from me and cleared his throat. "I know this might be difficult, but I have to ask. Are you sure you want to go through with this wedding?"I felt a knot form in my stomach as I avoided his gaze. "Yes, of course. Why would you even ask that?""Because I know you, Davina. And I know how much you loved Raiden."My heart ached at the mention of his name. "I still do love him," I admitted quietly. "But I can't be with him. Not after everything that's happened.""But do you really want to marry Ignacio? Or are you just settling because it's easier?"I looked at Gaven, tears starting to form in my eyes. "I don't know wh
DAVINA’S POVI was exhausted from taking care of Raiden all night, but seeing him healthy and well-rested made it all worth it. As I was preparing breakfast for him, my phone rang and I saw that it was Ignacio calling."Hey, Ignacio. What's up?" I answered, trying to sound casual."I just wanted to check up on you. I was worried when you didn't come home last night," he replied, concern lacing his voice."Oh, I'm fine. I had some work to catch up on, so I stayed at the restaurant to focus," I lied smoothly."Are you sure that's all it was?" he asked, skepticism creeping into his tone."Yes, I'm sure. Why would you think otherwise?" I countered, feeling a bit defensive."I don't know, Davina. It just seems like you're pulling away from me. And with the wedding coming up, I can't help but worry," he explained."Ignacio, you have nothing to worry about. I love you and I'm committed to our future together," I reassured him, hoping that my words would ease his concerns."Okay, I trust you.
RAIDEN’S POVAs I sat in my office, I could feel Davina's presence outside my door, hesitant to come in. I knew I had to face her eventually, but I wasn't sure if I was ready for it. Eventually, she knocked softly and walked in, looking nervous."Raiden, can we talk?" she asked tentatively.I took a deep breath and nodded, gesturing for her to take a seat. "What do you want to talk about?" I asked, trying to keep my tone neutral."I just wanted to... apologize," she said, fidgeting with her hands. "I know I hurt you and I didn't mean to. I never wanted things to end up this way between us."I felt a surge of anger rise up in me at her words, but I pushed it down. "You never wanted things to end up this way? You're engaged to another man, Davina. That's not exactly a great way to show someone you care about them.""I know," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "But I had to do something to get over you. Ignacio proposed and I said yes, but it doesn't mean I don't still have feel
RAIDEN’S POVI was at home, lying on the couch, trying to shake off the pain that came with Davina’s engagement news. Then, the doorbell rang, interrupting my thoughts. I reluctantly got up to answer it, and when I opened the door, I saw Ignacio, holding the wedding invitation in his hand. My heart rate increased as I wondered what he wanted.“Good afternoon, Raiden. I hope I'm not interrupting anything,” he said, his voice low and calm.“Not at all,” I replied, trying to hide my discomfort.“Great. I just wanted to make sure you received the wedding invitation to my upcoming nuptials with Davina.”I tried my best to keep my composure, even though I felt like I was about to explode. “Yes, I received it. Congratulations, Ignacio,” I said, with a fake smile.“Thanks, Raiden. I know things have been a bit awkward between us, but I hope this invitation can be a start to something new. We can put the past behind us and move forward.”As soon as Ignacio showed up at my doorstep, I felt a ru
DAVINA’S POVIgnacio had planned a romantic dinner for us that evening. The table was set with candles and rose petals. The aroma of the food filled the air, and the sound of soft music played in the background.As we sat down, Ignacio poured some wine into my glass and raised his own. "To us," he said, smiling.I smiled back, feeling grateful to have him in my life. "To us," I replied, taking a sip of the wine.As we ate, we talked about our future plans, and Ignacio brought up the topic of marriage. "Davina, I love you, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?"I was surprised by the sudden proposal, but I couldn't help but feel happy. "Ignacio, I love you too, and yes, I will marry you," I replied, tears welling up in my eyes.Ignacio got up from his seat, came over to me, and got down on one knee. He pulled out a small box and opened it, revealing a stunning diamond ring. "Davina, will you marry me?" he asked again, looking into my eyes.I couldn't beli
RAIDEN’S POVI woke up feeling terrible. My head was pounding, my nose was stuffed, and my throat was scratchy. I knew I wouldn't be able to go to work today. I texted Ignacio to let him know and tried to go back to sleep, but the pain was too much.That's when Karla walked in. She saw how miserable I was and sat down next to me, putting her hand on my forehead to check for a fever. I didn't think much of it, she's always been a caring friend.But then, she started stroking my hair and rubbing my back. It felt nice, and I was too sick to care about anything else. I must have dozed off because the next thing I knew, my head was on her lap and she was humming softly.I opened my eyes and saw her looking down at me, concern etched on her face. I could tell she genuinely cared about me, and I felt grateful to have a friend like her. I didn't know what Davina would think if she saw us like this, but at that moment, I couldn't bring myself to care. All I knew was that Karla's comfort was ex
