Just as she started to leave, he pulled her to him, holding her hand, and she gasped. His hand travelled up her arm and her neck, making her breath hitch.

“You really think I’m a heartless person, don’t you?” He chuckled. She found her face being lifted until she was staring straight into his vulnerable eyes.

“I am a changed man, Mia, and even if you don’t want to see it, I will keep making you see exactly that.” He whispered as his thumb caressed her cheeks, making her breath abnormal. Her lips parted unconsciously, and his eyes landed on them.

“One chance, one chance is all I ask for.” He breathed out, and Mia closed her eyes as he rested his forehead on hers.

“I’m scared.” She whispered, her voice shaking, and he held her close. Alex moved back just a bit to look at her face.

“I’m scared of trusting you again, Alex.” She opened her eyes, and the tears shining in her eyes were enough for him to release his hold on her.

“I get it.” He nodded stiffly and moved back, but this only

    “What are we doing now?” Mia asked in a bored tone. She knew something childish was going to come her way, and she didn’t have to wait for long, as Mark yelled, “Let’s play dumb charades.” “Seriously?” She gave him a look, and he nodded eagerly. In times like these, she wished she could slap Mark left and right. It was fucking 1 am at night, and this guy wanted to play games. Figuring out why Alex ignored him most of the time. Chloe yawned. “I’m sleepy, Mark.” She said as her eyes were drooping, and he was immediately concerned. “I’ll take you to our room, let’s go.” He stood up, and Mia could only stare at them in disbelief. Why was she here then? Shaking her head and mumbling something under her breath, she got up when she felt his presence behind her. She turned around and looked at him accusingly. “Where were you?” Alex asked, as smirked at her angry face. “You know where I was?” She huffed, knowing exactly where he was and what he was doing. “What’s got you so annoyed?” H

    A week flew by, and Alex was still trying to find ways to repent for his mistake. Of course, he tried, but it wasn’t all those mushy, romantic things like sending flowers or giving cards. Nope. He just wasn’t going to do that. Instead, he tried to spend time with her and Bryan, getting to know what she likes and dislikes, and from what he gathered, he knew she definitely hates it when he tries to ask her if she needs his help. This one time he asked her if she needed any help in rearranging Bryan's toys. She gave him a sharp look first before smiling sweetly. Honestly, he would’ve preferred her glare over her smile because that smile was more deadly. “Of course I need your help.” She said it in an extra sweet voice, and he eyed her doubtfully. “I need you to stay away from me.” She spat, he knew it wasn’t going to be an easy task getting her to forgive him. Thankfully, she hadn’t brought up the topic of divorce again, and it somehow relieved him, but that didn’t mean he was full

    After the issue of the divorce, Mia decided not to file a divorce again because she couldn't deny that she wasn't in love with Alex. “You need to take her away for a few hours and distract her so that I can plan my surprise here.” He said, and Chloe looked confused. She thought he would ask her about Mia's likes, dislikes, and all that, when he said he wanted to talk to her but he did nothing like that. "Also, don’t take her to the orphanage. Take her somewhere else.” He added, and on getting no reply from her, he looked at Mark, who only shrugged. Annoyed, he clicked his fingers in front of her face, bringing her out of her trance. “I hope I don’t need to repeat myself.” Alex said it in a pissed tone, and Chloe rolled her eyes. “Whatever. But what are you planning? At least let us know.” Chloe asked curiously, but he isn’t going to let her know. He only gave her a smirk, and she scoffed. Mark was enjoying the show until Alex asked him to accompany the ladies. “What the hell!

    Martin Ian felt his eyes filling up, and a lump formed in his throat. He stared at his son in front of him, who looked shaken to the core. He never thought of meeting his son in such circumstances. In fact, he never intended to cross paths with him. Chloe came running outside with a panicked look, not finding Bryan beside her. She froze as she saw the scenario displaying in front of her. Her best friend was here, and relief washed through her body upon seeing her. She simply narrowed her eyes at Mia, who seemed to be staring somewhere else. That is when she noticed an unknown man standing ahead, and a completely dazed Alex was staring at the man. Frowning, she stood beside Mark, gaining his attention. “We’ll be leaving.” Mark announced and held Chloe's hand, but before they could leave, Mia interrupted. “Can I come with you guys?” Mia asked, She didn’t want to stay here, so she didn’t even glance at Alex when she uttered those words. This seemed to snap Alex out of his daze as

    Mia had no idea where she was going because her mind was blank, and all she wanted was for the pain to go away. She aimlessly walked on the road in the middle of the night, not bothered about the danger of the night. As soon as she is born, she must fulfil her duty as a daughter, then her duty as a wife, her duty as a daughter in-law, her duty as a mother, and it doesn’t stop there. Isn’t she a human too? “Going somewhere?” A voice came from behind her, and that was when she realised her surroundings. She had no idea where she was, and there was no one around. With her heart thudding rapidly, she clutched the sides of her dress as she thought of running, but whatever direction she would take, She didn’t even know what danger awaited her. So she slowly turned around and froze, looking at the person. “Hey.” The person smirked, and even though she remembered him, that didn’t make her feel any good. “What are you doing here?” She asked, trying to be strong, but her shaky voice says

    After the issue that happened at the orphanage, I was resting in my room when my phone beeped. I checked my phone and checked the message. “I have some news for you, your IVF treatment was not done. You were fooled by your husband.” This message had been driving Mia crazy. She received a message from an unknown number this morning, and at first she was confused, but later, it scared her. Who the hell sent it? And how did the person know about all this? No one knows about their son, or her, for that matter. Is this some kind of trap? She was terrified, and informing Alex about it is the only thing she could come up with, or she could go to the hospital to confirm it. She looked at Bryan, who was busy playing, and her heart clenched. Shutting her eyes shut, she calmed herself before she came to a conclusion. She is going to the hospital. So she got ready and left with Bryan to find her answers. She is so sure it was all fake and it might be to destroy Alex’s image, but she would

    Alex seemed like he was replaying the scene in his mind as his jaw clenched and his body tensed. ********FLASHBACKS******* Martin Ian and Leah Ian were tied in an arranged knot by her father, who thought it was for the best. Her father, the commander-in-chief of the army, was a strict man with principles and ethics. He needed things to be done his way, and that was what happened when he chose a man for his daughter. Leah didn’t want to marry Martin, but she was afraid of her father. She didn’t oppose him and followed his instructions until she was married to the guy she knew nothing about. Martin was a calm and cool guy, and since he trusted his senior, who was like a father to him, he agreed immediately, failing to realise that he should’ve at least talked to the person he was marrying. Things went smoothly for a while, then Martin and Leah were happily married, or it was just how it seemed. Five years into the marriage, now with a child, Martin felt like he had achieved every

    It was seven forty, and there was still no sign of Alex. Mia sighed as she glanced at the entrance for the nth time and then chuckled to herself. What exactly was she doing? Keeping hopes? Expectations? Just because he said he would be early didn’t mean he was asking her to wait for him. With another sigh leaving her lips, she got up and checked on Bryan, who seemed to be sleeping soundly. A smile formed on her lips, knowing he was going to be up later in the night and give her a hard time. But that’s how babies are innocent and carefree. Growing up was sure messed up. A few moments later, as she stood on the terrace watching the bright city lights, the breeze flowing through created a sense of calmness inside her. “I guess you like the terrace more than any place in the house." She was startled as she turned around and found him leaning on the wall as he stared at her. “How long have you been here?” She questioned him, and he shrugged as he pushed himself off the wall and walke
