He pursed his lips as he hung up. He'd never been able to use the word 'home' when referring to where he and Winter lived. It had never felt like one.The only place that had truly felt like home was the house where he and Desiree lived when they were still married."You came. You really came," Wint

Gerald paced in the hallway of the hospital, his facial features set with worry. It had been about forty-five minutes, and he still hadn't gotten any news about Winter.Nurses went in and out of the emergency room but refused to say anything to him.He ran his fingers through his hair, remembering t
“There might be something we can do to help her.”Gerald raised a brow, waiting for Rafael to explain.He did. “There's a group of expert cardiothoracic surgeons conducting research on rare heart conditions like Winter's. They're looking for willing patients. I sent Winter's file to them and just go
Gerald instantly pulled his hand away from Winter's grasp. “What are you saying, Winter? You want us to get married?”He sure hoped he'd heard wrong, but Winter's earnest nodding of her head told him otherwise.“Yes, I want to get married to you, Gerald. This has been the biggest dream of my life, t
She reached out to grab his hand, but Gerald pulled it away, stepping away from the bed. “I'm going to call Rafael to check on you since you're awake now."With that, he turned and left the room, leaving Winter staring at the door in dismay.༺❀༻༺❀༻༺❀༻Sasha was busy typing on her computer the next m

SIX YEARS LATER:“You should come one day, darling. The people here are so wonderful! Everyone is so kind. And they have such genuine gratitude for whoever helps them in any way.”Hearing the excitement in her mother's voice as they spoke over a video call, Desiree chuckled warmly. It truly amazed h

“Gerald Butler, how many times must I tell you that it would be rude to just leave our own reception before it's over?”*“Ugh, but I'm dying to make love to you,”* Gerald groaned again. “I can't wait for our wedding night. The things I plan to do to you.”His eyes brightened with lust. “Do you want
A Month Later"The bride has arrived!" a female guest shouted.Immediately, all the guests who had been outside and not seated rushed into the chapel. The reporters, despite clear warnings to keep off, were not allowed into the church, but they were more than happy to capture the bride’s entrance.O
They hugged, and as her mother continued to cry, Desiree couldn't help her own tears.“Okay, let me call Hugo in now,” Desiree said after wiping her tears when they pulled back from the hug.Her mother smiled nervously as Desiree opened the door and ushered a now fully dressed Hugo into the room.“D
The clicking sound of the opening door jolted her mother and Hugo out of their passionate moment. They broke apart from each other, spinning to look at Desiree like two deer caught in the headlights.Staring at their appearance, her mother's hair tousled and her clothes creased, while Hugo was shirt
Moments after their lovemaking, once they'd caught their breath for a bit, Desiree burst out laughing, the sound vibrating through Gerald.Just like that, he also began laughing. He didn't know why she was laughing, but he couldn't help himself because her laughter was infectious.“Okay, so why are
“Desiree Hamilton, would you like to be my wife once again?" Desiree felt like her heart was going to explode. With tears burning her eyes, she answered, "No."Gerald’s eyes widened as panic flashed through them. “No? As in you don't want to marry me? But why? Did I do something wrong? I…”“I’m onl
