Serena's POVI was dragged behind a tree and my eyes widened when I realized it was Harry. He looked angry while looking at me although I can see worry in his eyes.“What are you doing here?” I asked worriedly as I took a peek at Tyler again. The thugs are still beating him while filming him and laughing.He clenched his jaws, “I should be the one asking you that, Serena. Why are you here? It’s dangerous! Did he drag you here, huh?”“Please!” I groaned. “I forced Tyler to bring me here. He had no choice.”He shook his head and took out a gun behind him. My eyes widened in shock. He can use a gun?“I know you won’t stay put. So let me help you. Shoot one by one accurately. I’ll help you.”I swallowed hard and nodded, “Andy is my priority, Harry.”“I know, and I’ll prioritize you.”I did not say anything again and just transferred to the nearest tomb while he did the same.I focused on the thug who kicked Tyler's stomach. I shot him on the stomach the same time Harry shot the leader on
Serena’s POV“May I know your blood type, Mr and Mrs. Walter?”“I’m O positive,” Catherine answered.“I’m B positive,” Tyler answered.The nurse looked at them alternately with confusion, “Uh…your son’s blood type is AB negative. I don’t think either of you can donate.”AB negative? I was confused but I immediately dropped it as I lifted my arm, getting the nurse's attention.“I’m AB negative.”They all looked at me. Harry immediately held my hand tight and looked at me worriedly, “Serena, you’re injured.”I looked at Tyler, ignoring Harry. “I’m fine. I can donate blood for him. Andy’s safety is more important.”He sucked his breath as if he’s having a hard time, “Serena…”I then turned to Catherine but she’s just looking at me. I sighed and looked at the nurse. “I’m gonna donate. Where should I go?”“Serena, I said no!” Harry’s strict voice caught my attention.I looked at him sharply as I gritted my teeth, “He’s just a child, Harry. He needs blood and I’m the only one here who can g
Serena's POV“Cath–”“Mommy!” Andy saw her mom and immediately rushed to her. Catherine asked Andy to go with him to Tyler’s room, leaving without even throwing a single glance at me again.I sighed and looked at Selena, “Selena, don’t say that again.”She frowned, “Why is she so sensitive?”“It’s not that. Even if it’s me I won’t like it. I admit I still don’t like her but she’s still Andy’s mother and a mother she should be respected.”Selena made a face, “Fine! Fine! Jeez! You’re so nice.”After another day, I was discharged from the hospital. Harry picked me up and brought me to his house with my permission. I was so happy and touched by his gentleness. He was extra careful today and he even carried me to his bedroom.He went out again to get my small luggage and when he came back, I smirked which he noticed.He chuckled and gently touched the tip of my nose, “Why are you smiling, hm?”“I’m just thinking that you’ve been planning to bring me home and you found your perfect chance.
Tyler's POVAndy’s getting better each day but he still needs to stay for a few more days in the hospital since he needs to be closely checked by the doctors everyday. Meanwhile the doctor allowed me to go home today. Catherine wanted to send me home but I insisted on leaving alone since I needed to go straight to the company. Besides, Andy needs his mom.I visited Andy before leaving and I saw the empty bed beside him. The nurses are preparing to take it out since it is empty. I remember how Serena stayed there until she got discharged. I’m so thankful to her for saving Andy. I wanted to thank her again and I’ll do that when I get the chance.My men accompanied me but we were mobbed by the crowd as soon as I stepped out of the hospital.The continuous shutters of the camera hurt my eyes so much that I had to cover my face with my arm.What's happening?“Mr. Walter, is it true that your uncle abused teenage women aside from adults?”“Mr. Walter, what can you say about your uncle assau
Serena's POVI feel so furious seeing hateful comments being thrown at Millie right after the scandal Tyler's uncle made. I was in the canteen of the hospital, taking a break from work when I saw the news on TV.I couldn't help but feel so angry towards the people leaving nasty comments. I know a scandal like this isn’t tolerable and the abuser needs to pay for it but dragging an innocent child is not tolerable. I won't allow this!‘I hope the same thing happens to Tyler Walter's daughter someday.’I gritted my teeth in so much anger while looking at the comments through my computer monitor.Millie is my daughter too and I won't let this slide. What has Tyler been doing?The news spread like a wildfire this morning and there's still no action being executed. Not even a press conference to clear the name of the Walters. Does that mean the scandal was true?Damn!“Sht!” I cursed and threw my phone on the table when for the 8th time, Tyler refused to take my call.Earlier he was uncontac
Tyler's POVI couldn't be more anxious than I am now. Sitting in the middle of the businessmen arguing, I felt suffocated. Some of them are accusing me of being my uncle's accomplice and some are defending me.Their argument is hurting my head and I can only feel disappointed hearing how they only care about their own benefits and didn't give a damn about the current situation of the company. For me, none of them are capable and worthy of handling the company after me.“What about our shares, huh? The only thing I can think of now is to sell my shares but who would buy it in this situation? How can I earn when such a vicious scandal is tainting the company's reputation?”“Do you think I’m not thinking that? I care about my shares too, but stripping Mr. Walter of his position can be risky!”“And letting him stay is also risky!”I clenched my jaws and slammed my balled fists on the table, silencing them. I looked at each and every one of them with darkness consuming me.“Did you forget
Serena's POVTyler was in the bar drinking alone when I arrived. I stopped a few meters away from him and watched him drinking. He looked so problematic. The expression on his face is hurting me so much that I feel like I couldn't look him in the eyes tonight.I took a deep sigh. Seeing him drinking like this reminded me of the time he was drowning in pain and he couldn't do anything but accept the situation.He’s alone on the couch and his eyes are glued to the liquor he's drinking.He’s having a hard time and I can clearly see how the situation affected him to the point that he looked really stressed out knowing he was close to his late uncle.I was about to walk towards him when my phone beeped. I received a message from Damon. I squeezed my eyes closed after I read his message.Tyler wanted to take the fall so his children won't suffer.No! I won't let that happen. I will never allow it.I walked fast towards Ty
Serena's POVI couldn't push him away. I know this is wrong because Tyler and I are both committed to someone else but I couldn't push him away. Kissing him felt so wrong and yet so right.The gentleness. The warmth. The comfort. The sincerity. I can feel them all as he pulled my waist closer and deepened the kiss, making me feel even more captivated by the way his lips grazed mine.It's making me tremble. Oh how I wish I could make him stop but my mind isn't functioning well.His tongue explored the insides of my mouth like a diamond hunter seeking for treasure. It was breathtaking. It was nerve-wracking.I couldn't remember the last time we kissed like this, but I can remember the taste of his lips. It feels like the first time. Intense and uncontrollable.I was too weak to resist the temptation and I was only brought back to my senses when someone pulled me away from Tyler and punched his face.“Harry!” I screamed, real
Tyler's POVI was watching my little family as they ate the food I cooked for them. Andy and Millie looked so happy while eating messily. I was raised by my strict mother. Taught to not eat messily or she would scold me. Now, seeing Serena laughing with the kids and patiently wiping their lips while eating makes my heart feel so full.I am an only child. So all the responsibilities as the only heir of my family was put on my shoulders at a young age. I had to stop playing fool. I had to stop messing around and was taught to take business seriously to continue the legacy of our family.The responsibilities given to me aren't enough to justify being a stupid rascal, letting go of my wife just because my first love came back and she told me we had a child. My responsibility as the only heir of the Walter's isn't enough to justify how I neglected my wedded wife and our daughter.I know! All of those were fueled by my insecurities because Serena started treating me so coldly and I thought
Serena's POVWhen we got home, Tyler was smiling nonstop. It was as if he received the greatest gift he could ever have. He was extra touchy and clingy. He won't stop kissing the back of my hands and touching my waist and back like those are his favorite things to do.“What?” He asked, smiling while he's in front of me, chopping meat.He volunteered to cook our lunch today and I want to stay in the kitchen to watch him. He rolled the knife swiftly on through his fingers like a professional chef and I feel like he's doing that on purpose to show me and amaze me.“You're so happy hearing that I’m actually pregnant.”He chuckled and nodded. “I’m gonna be a daddy again. My hard work has paid off! Finally!”I smacked his chest and chuckled. “Naughty!”I rested my elbow on the counter and put my chin on my palm. I stared at him as he continued chopping meats when I remembered Elias.“What do you think about Elias?”He stopped chopping and looked at me with a creased forehead. I couldn't bel
Serena's POVI rushed to the bathroom and puked on the sink after I woke up feeling nauseous. Beads of sweats rolled down my temple and cheeks as I squeezed my eyes closed.I washed my mouth and groaned. I suddenly felt so weak as I grabbed onto the sides of the sink and I felt a warm, big palm, caressing my back.“Baby…”“Hm!” I hummed and slowly opened my eyes to see Tyler through the mirror, standing behind me.He was looking at me with worried eyes while standing so close behind me.“What's wrong?”I sucked my breath and closed my eyes again. I rested my back against his hard and strong chest as he supported me by the waist, holding me in place and supporting my weight.A smile crept on my lips. I know these symptoms because I’m a doctor. Although this is not my field of expertise, I know by experience and by a little knowledge about these symptoms.“Serena, tell me what's wrong. Are you sick?” Tyler's voice sounded so worried and scared as he continued caressing my back.I looked
Serena’s POVMy heart was beating so loud and fast inside my chest while I'm inside the bridal car. My hands were almost sweating inside the white gloves I’m wearing. I know this isn't the first time I’m marrying Tyler, but this second time is different. I feel like my heart would jump out of my chest anytime now.I was constantly looking outside the window, and when the car finally stopped moving, I sucked my breath as if it's about to explode.I flinched when someone opened the door. I looked up and saw Uncle Charlie. He chuckled when he saw me nervously sitting inside the car.“You okay?”I stared at him like a child. “I’m nervous, uncle.”He squatted beside me and held my hands, looking at me with gentleness. “Your mother was just like you when she married your dad. She's nervous, but so beautiful.”I smiled at him. “Do I look like her, Uncle?”He chuckled and nodded. “Of course, you are. Let's go? Your future husband is currently shaking in nervousness right now.”I bit my bottom
Serena's POVTyler pushed me against the closed door as he ravaged my lips with both hunger and passion. His hand caressed and lifted my legs as he pushed his lower body against mine. I threw my head back causing his lips to land on my throat.My body spasmed as I felt his hardness against my now aching core. I feel like the heat consuming my body is becoming more intense and I will explode any minute from now.When he stopped kissing me, I looked at him with drunk eyes. He was staring back into my eyes like I am the most beautiful person in the world and I like it. I like how he looks at me with so much affection. He was giving me so much assurance that he will be mine forever.“I love you…” He whispered and carried me to the bed. He lay me there carefully and he immediately followed, settling himself on top of me after he parted my legs using his knee.I gasped when I felt his hands gently caressing the sides of my body as he dipped his head and started kissing my neck.The gentlene
Serena's POV“Turn around,” Tyler said, staring into my eyes lovingly after he opened the door and saw me standing in front of the full-length mirror.I’m wearing a purple evening dress. My hair was in a messy bun. My necklace was exposed from the low cut of the dress's cleavage, and my arms were exposed too from the thin strap of the dress.Tyler started walking towards me as I slowly turned around, showing him my outfit. When I stopped spinning around, he was already in front of me. He caught me by the waist and pulled me closer to him.“So lovely…” he whispered and gently landed a soft and wholesome kiss on the side of my lips.My heart immediately hammered inside my chest as I looked at him with heavy breaths. The gentleness in his eyes were very evident as he softly looked at me.He's possessive at times, but not to the point that I’d feel suffocated. He would get jealous with some men ogling at me because of how I look, but he never once intervened with the way I dress.Slowly,
Serena's POVI was pacing back and forth while biting my fingernail. Tyler called an hour ago, requesting for a chopper, and Tyler's father immediately sent a chopper, a pilot, and some men. They arrived while I was in the hospital with Andy. Tyler and Damon are currently on the Carolina Coast, and hTyler confirmed that Selena has been staying on that island.Uncle and Auntie are also here. An ambulance too and a private doctor. I volunteered but Uncle didn't allow me because he said it would be better if the doctor who’ll assist Selena is not a relative to avoid emotional issues. I got his point, so I agreed.I kept on glancing at my wristwatch while waiting. I couldn't calm down. Tyler assured me that Selena is fine. She's safe, but I still couldn't calm down completely. I need to see her myself, so I’d feel at ease. I know Uncle and Auntie feel the same way. Uncle Charlie is just trying his best to calm down.I heard the chopper. I was alerted. I immediately followed Tyler's fathe
Tyler's POV“Are you sure we're in the right place?” Damon asked after I parked the car in front of a huge ancestral house. The intricate design of the window grills looked exquisite in spite of being primitive. The front porch has a few steps until the huge double doors.I looked around, examining the whole place before I turned to Damon who's sitting beside me, also examining the place.“My private investigator sent me this location. He won't be mistaken,” I answered, full of confidence.We’ve been searching for her, and I won't let even a small piece of information slide. According to my investigator’s sources and investigation, the man who was with Selena went to this house.I got out of the car, and I heard Damon's sigh before he followed me. The gate was open, so I went straight to the front porch. I pressed the doorbell. Even the doorbell looks traditional.“The savior must be a rich heir, huh
Catherine’s POVTyler's words kept on lingering in my mind, causing me pain, bringing me tears. I couldn't forget everything. Every single word ripped through my heart as I remembered everything I did for the past few years.I’ve lost everything. I was so scared of losing everything. I was so scared of being alone. I was so scared to the point that I manipulated the child I loved like my own.I gave birth to Andy. I love him like my real child. I don't wanna lose him. I don't…A painful sob escaped my lips again as I sat on the bed miserably.My wrist was cuffed to the bed. The door was guarded by the police. Even the sky outside the window seemed so sad.My heart felt so heavy and painful. I loved Tyler so much. I gave up on him unknowingly after I realized he will never be mine again. That no matter how hard I tried, he would never love me again because Serena completely owned him. It was only Andy that I wanted, but&hel
