(Ash's POV)That day, I went to a restaurant with my client to discuss work matters. After Freya snatched all the clients from my company, I slowly went back to looking for companies that were willing to work with my company. And little by little, I will bring my company back to the top. I won't let my company go bankrupt.However, while I was having a serious conversation with my client, I saw Freya and Henry having lunch together. They looked so happy and romantic. And it made me so angry and jealous when I saw it."Sir...""Sir?""Oh, uh, yes?" I immediately turned to my client. I was so focused on staring at Freya that I didn't realize I was talking to someone else. "Oh, I'm sorry.""Is she your wife?" he asked as he looked up to where my eyes were fixed. Freya was sitting alone as Henry had previously left his seat."Wife?""If you want to see your wife, we can end our meeting today. And I will send you our cooperation contract as soon as I prepare it," he said in a friendly mann
(Freya's POV)My heart was beating very fast and my body was still shaking violently after I managed to escape from Ash. He was the craziest of the craziest men. I don't know what he was thinking until he dared to do something like that to her.I immediately went back inside the restaurant and tried to be calm so Henry wouldn't know that I had just met Ash. I didn't want another fight between the two of them.But when I got back into the restaurant, Henry was talking to the waiter and security. He looked very worried looking for me while carrying my bag that was left on my seat.I anxiously approached Henry. "Henry," I called in a low voice.He immediately looked back and stared at me with his face already pale with worry. He runs over to me and hugs me so tightly that I can hardly breathe."Fuck, Freya!" he yells loudly. His embrace tightens as I try to push him away."H-Henry...""You don't know how I felt when I came back and you weren't in your seat!" he exclaimed frantically.I f
(Freya's POV)Today was a weekend and we had made an appointment with Henry to go camping. Henry had prepared everything beforehand and we were picked up in the morning.Hazel and Violet looked very happy and enthusiastic as they got into the car for the trip to the campsite. We were going to stay overnight at the camping site and Henry had brought a tent for us.After two hours of traveling, we finally arrived at the camping spot. It was in the forest and there were tons of people camping there too. Mostly families and couples.Henry and I set up our tents while Hazel and Violet playfully gathered pine cones for the fire. Every now and then I keep an eye on them so they don't go too far because even though there are a lot of people there, I'm worried that something bad might happen to them."This place is so crowded," Henry said as he picked up a hammer to hit the iron that pulled the tent up."Yeah. Hazel and Violet look really happy," I said with a small smile."Are you happy too?"
(Freya's POV)"Ah, Henry," I moaned as he kissed my lips while I was sitting on his lap with his arms wrapped around my waist. My hands tangled in his hair as he deepened the kiss.This is the craziest thing I did while I was single with a man and that person was Henry. It never occurred to me that I would do something intimate with the man I considered my family.Maybe it was the effect of the alcohol I drank and the atmosphere was in our favor. Or indeed my mind is confused so I use this to forget all the problems that are tangling in my brain. I just want to feel free and escape from all the craziness of my life that I have experienced in recent times.“You smell so good,” Henry whispered. He sniffed my neck and left a kiss mark there.Meanwhile, I reflexively jerked my head back and held on to Henry's neck as his kisses fell to my chest and nuzzled the bottom of my neck sensually."Aaah.." I groaned again when Henry kissed my lips which were wet and swollen. He didn't let me let m
(Freya's POV)"Are you going to pick up the children at school today?" Henry asked from across the phone."Yes. Reece was at an event with his colleagues and couldn't help me pick up Hazel and Violet.After the camping event, Henry started to intensively send me messages and contact me just to ask how I was and what I was doing, occasionally he also asked how Hazel and Violet were doing. It seemed like he couldn't stop himself from approaching me brutally.Even though I still don't feel used to it, I try to accept all of Henry's caring attitude as long as it doesn't have a bad impact on me. After all, he did all that because he loved me and my daughters."Then I'll come to your office and we can pick up Hazel and Violet together," said Henry, suddenly.“No need, Henry. I can do it myself. I don't want to bother you," I said.“It's not a hassle. Let's take the kids home and we can have dinner together."“Then we can stop by the supermarket and I will buy some food to cook. I will speci
(Freya's POV)"Son? Wow... I didn't know that you guys had sons," I said in a mocking tone. I clenched my hands into fists, holding back the feelings of jealousy, anger, and sadness mixed together. I didn't want to look weak in front of Ash and show my discomfort when I found out he had a child with Stella. And he was still acting like a bitch flirting with me?"You seem to look down on me too much," Stella hissed. She took a step towards me, but Ash's hand immediately wrapped around her waist."Don't fight in public," Ash said in a low voice.I immediately glanced sharply at Ash. He always looked so intimate whenever he was next to Stella, but whenever he was alone with me he was like a rabid wolf. I don't know if it's his personality, or if he's intentionally playing with my feelings and seeing me destroyed."Well, I wouldn't want to waste my precious time talking to a bitch like her either," Stella taunted."Watch your mouth, Stella," I growled, "I could slap you across the face if
(Freya's POV)While in the car, I just kept quiet. Every now and then, I'd pick up the conversation between Henry, Violet, and Hazel. My mood became very messy after meeting Ash and Stella. Especially with Ash's cold attitude when he just kept quiet when he saw me being slapped by Stella.What did I expect from a man who hated me all his life? He was just playing me and would rather see me suffer than be happy. So I should have ignored him and not cared about Ash or Stella. Because now I have people who love and care for them, as well as my daughters. So I don't need anything else.Henry suddenly grabbed my hand and looked at me as if he knew the sadness I was feeling at that moment. I returned it with a smile and then turned my face to the side because I didn't want Henry to see me sad because of Ash. Because I knew his feelings for me and didn't want to disappoint him.When we got home, we had dinner together. Hazel and Violet played with Henry before I sent them to bed. When I went
(Freya's POV)I pushed Ash's body roughly and tried to drive him out of my room. I was so fed up with his attitude that he kept playing with me as if I were a cheap woman that he could easily get. I was getting more and more angry and disappointed because he already had Stella and a son but he always acted seductive whenever he was with me."Get out of here right now," I snapped, my eyes glaring at him. "I'm not some slut you can play around with when you're bored. If you want a sex buddy on the bed, then drag Stella to satisfy your lust because I'm not interested in playing around with assholes like you. And one more thing... If you behave like this again, I will report you for harassment. Do you understand, Mr. Ash?"I asserted with all the coldness and rudeness I showed him. I gave him no pause to speak. With my hands on my waist, I stared straight at him with my eyes glaring, angrily."Get out," I snapped back, shooting him out of my office.He just stared at me silently without r
