Serena’s POV
A child with Harry? I don't know. Until now I've been using contraceptive pills. I don't know if it's because I’m still not ready or if I developed a trauma after losing a child.
I smiled at Millie and caressed her hair. “I'm not sure but I want to spend time with you for now. I want you to be with me and uncle Harry after we got married.”
She looked at me with hesitance before she finally nodded and smiled, “Okay, mommy.”
I was bothered and couldn't help but ask. “Is there something wrong, sweetie?”
“I just…thought I’d miss daddy. If I live with you and uncle Harry, I won't be with daddy all the time. But…”
“But?”
She smiled, “But I think it's okay because Andy needs him more.”
I smiled and kissed her cheeks. “Thank you for understanding our situation, sweetheart. Don't worry because mommy and daddy love y
Tyler's POVIt was etched in my mind. I couldn't forget it. Everytime I close my eyes, I could see her happy face with him but every time I tried to reminisce about our past, I could only see her misery and how we broke each other's heart, how I neglected her.I regret everything now. I regret not coaxing her when she's mad at me. I regret shouting back whenever she shouts at me. I regret turning my back whenever she needs me.This feels terrible. The last thing I remember about our marriage was the pain and suffering and last night I heard how she loved to be with him.Her moans, her groans for pleasure and her cries to reach that highest part of lust—everything is etched on my memory.It was so painful. I couldn't accept it. I couldn't accept that she's happy again and I’m no longer the reason.I couldn't listen to them because it breaks my heart. I couldn't even face them, so I ran away.The torturous memory of what happened that night kept lingering in my mind. It's so hard to for
Serena's POV“Relax,” Selena said while chuckling. She was holding my hand while we're waiting for the staff to prepare my wedding dress. I’m gonna fit it today and I’m really really nervous especially now that Harry's not with me.We've been preparing our wedding for almost a month now and although he actively participated, I feel like there are times he wasn't really with me. He would get distracted by something I couldn't figure out but I’ve been trying so hard to understand him.Maybe he's just nervous and excited like me?“What’s wrong, Serena?” Selena asked worriedly again, looking at my face.I glanced at the door before looking at Selena again. “Nothing.”She sighed, “Is this because of Harry not being here?”I bit my bottom lip. I don't wanna be clingy but I actually want him to be here as I fit my wedding dress.“Cheer up! What if he's actua
Serena's POV“Tyler, what is wrong with you?” I angrily asked while gritting my teeth.[S-Serena…] His voice cracked as if he was shocked by the sudden anger in my voice.“You ruined me! Now I finally found someone who will make me happy, you'll ruin it too? What is it that you really want? Why can't you allow me to be happy?”[Serena, that wasn't my intention. It’s just that…]Not his intention? Then what is it that he wants?“What? I can't think of any reason why you want me to delay my own wedding, Tyler. I’ve been trying to get along with you for Millie but…but what are you trying to do?”[Serena, we’ll talk when I get back there. Please! Just…listen to me. I don't want you to get hurt—]“I won't get hurt! I’ll be very happy if I marry Harry, so please…don't try to ruin my happiness.”I ended the call afte
Tyler's POV“What is this?” I asked Damon when he handed me a small envelope.He sighed and sat in front of me. “Serena's wedding invitation. The wedding will happen the day after tomorrow.”I massaged my forehead and gritted my teeth. “I need to find evidence that Harry is not what we think, Damon. Serena will only think I’m trying to ruin her happiness. I need to find something that will prove Harry approached her on purpose.”“I know,” Damon answered. “My private investigator will contact me later for that. For now, get a plane ticket. You need to get there before the wedding.”I pressed my lips together and stared at the screen of my phone.Serena…I’m sorry for what I did to you and for what I will do later. Saving you from him is the least thing I can do to somehow make it up for all my mistakes.*** Serena's POV“What are you talking about, officer? Are you sure about this?” I angrily asked the officer as Chris Walter carried his wife and ran to bring her to the hospital, unable
Serena’s POVI caressed my cheek where Catherine's palm landed. I could feel the stinging pain her slap left on my face. She was looking at me with fury burning in her eyes and that fire was so alive.No! No, that’s not true! Tyler is not dead and I will prove it to them.I don't know. All I know is I need to make sure that Tyler is safe. I need to make sure he's safe and he's breathing. For Millie. For Andy…“This is your fault, Serena! You wench!”“Shut up, Catherine!” I growled at her. “I don’t want any of these to happen and if I have to search the freaking sky to find him, I will! He’s my daughter's father and losing him like this will never cross my mind!”I turned to Andy and he's looking at us with fear in his eyes. He's scared because Catherine and I are fighting and I know he shouldn't see this.“What should I do? What should I do? Oh! Tyler!” Catherine cried and fell on her knees.I swallowed the lump in my throat, trying so hard to calm down in spite of the situation. I nee
Serena’s POV“Replay it,” I said lifelessly, staring at the monitor where a video keeps on playing.I couldn't stop the welling tears in the corner of my eyes seeing how Tyler rode that plane. The video ended after he entered the plane and I was so sure he got on it. The same plane that crashed.I gripped the corner of the table and squeezed my eyes closed after I watched the video for the nth time today.Behind me was Uncle Charlie, caressing my back, comforting me.Tyler got on the plane. He…got on it.“Serena…”Beads of tears fell on the table where I was leaning. The video kept on playing and I couldn't take my eyes off of it.“Stop the video. Serena, come here.” Uncle Charlie tried stopping me but I didn't.I snatched the mouse from my Uncle's intel and played the video again, hoping the familiar face in that footage will change and I’m just hallucinating.“Serena!” Uncle Charlie grabbed my wrist.I was so weak and he managed to pull me away from there and pushed me to sit on the
Serena’s POVI drove the car speeding through the skyscrapers, letting the wild wind hit my face. The engine roared louder as the fire inside me tended. I was tempted to try and see what would happen if I put the gas pedal to the metal. Would it save me from this terrible marriage? I'm Serena Anson, a miserable joke who had once again caught her husband's betrayal.I looked aside at the passenger seat where a pile of pictures of my husband embracing and kissing another woman was present. My marriage with Tyler Walter started from an accidental one-night stand and now he was revenging me by sleeping around with his sluts. I won't agree to a divorce, for the sake of my daughter Millie. I don't want her to grow up in a broken home. Taylor has taken advantage of this situation, and now he's become even more brazen, appearing on the front pages of entertainment and financial newspapers with different female companions. As I caught sight of the familiar villa gates, the specter of death f
Serena's POV“Are you just gonna let him do this?” Selena, my cousin, sitting in the passenger seat, asked worriedly. Our resemblances were very evident but our characteristics were actually opposite.“How could you let him do this to you? Have you lost self-respect?”I sighed while driving. “There's nothing I can do, Selena. He’s my daughter's father. Besides, he's from the most powerful family in this country. It's not that simple to divorce a Walter.”“But he’s disrespecting you!” She groaned. “You can’t settle with someone like him. Find another man who will satisfy you in everything.”I shook my head. “I don’t need romance.”When was the last time I slept with my husband? I don’t remember. I just woke up one day that we’re in this situation. We’re cold towards each other and it started after I caught him with another woman.I’ve lost my faith in our marriage the moment he cheated and I know it cannot be redeemed. It was only Millie who was making me hold on to it.“Come on, Seren
