"What the hell, Jethro? Since when was that remotely true?" I protested.

I was getting super tired of this growing argument because—let's face it—this man would always come up with the stupidest retorts.

"You have two choices, Serena. You either return to our bedroom or I'm sleeping here with you."

"Or, I choose the third option. We sleep in separate rooms, and we don't disturb each other's sleep."

"Do you know of any married couple sleeping in different rooms without some sort of conflict starting?! You're my wife, Serena! I want to sleep with my wife!" he began to snarl impatiently.

"I just want a good rest, Jethro! You've been asking for sex every single night lately! I'm exhausted and sick of it!"

He glared at me for a long time before finally saying, "I won't ask for it tonight then."

I stared into his eyes and wondered how much I could trust him. He had been promising to give me time and space to rest, but he never made well on his promises. "Oh really? If I'm being hone

    Evelyn and I waited in the hallway with bated breath, though she was more anxious than I was. Jolene had stepped into the ultrasound room for more than 10 minutes. The fact that it was taking this long made me anxious. "Does it always take this long?" Evelyn asked. "Let's just wait a little longer, okay? Maybe the doctor’s trying to be thorough," I replied. She nodded, but her frown did not loosen up. Sometime later, the door finally opened. Jolene, pale-faced, had her report in her hand. One look at her expression told me what was likely in that report, and my heart still sank. Evelyn approached Jolene anxiously. “How did it go?" she asked in a shaky voice.Jolene did not reply, and I wordlessly took the report from her.She was pregnant.I sighed and passed the report to Evelyn, who turned white as a sheet. As the two of them stood there in shock, we started drawing attention.Quietly, I suggested, "We should head home first before we discuss what to do next."We were

    I frowned a little. I understood Jolene’s anger and frustration, but I felt a little bad for the child. I couldn't relate to not feeling a smidge of feelings for someone who was a part of you. "Let's find a doctor who can perform the procedure. We don't want it to leave complications for Jolene," Mom continued."Let me help," I offered, "I can ask Mason to select the best person for the job.""No!" Jolene yelled. I was perplexed. "What?" "No means no! Don’t you dare breathe a single word about this to him!" she screamed.I was stunned. When I recovered, I was worried. Jolene feared the possibility of Mason rejecting her, didn't she? Personally, I thought it an unnecessary consideration because there was no way Mason would fall for her, regardless of what did or did not happen. Jolene didn't think that though and was still holding out hope. But she had gone through so many terrible things in her life lately that I didn't have the heart to shatter her dream. "Listen.

    Jethro frowned harder. He walked toward me and loomed. "You're still mad at me for last night?" he asked, his tone gentler now. My heart quivered at his sudden show of gentleness. Still, thinking back on how cold he was made me feel a little wronged. I looked away and pouted. "N-No!" "You ordered me not to touch you last night and I did as you wanted. So why are you mad now?" he cocked an eyebrow, smiling."I'm not mad." I sulked. "That's now what I'm seeing. Is it because I was cold to you last night?" "No." I rolled my eyes. This idiot knew exactly what kind of attitude he was showing me last night, right? So why the hell was he making me give an explicit answer?I was just about to leave when he grabbed me by the hand. "Hey." He pulled me into his arms. "Don't be mad. I wasn't on my best behavior last night, I know. Sorry. But to be fair, you started it.""Excuse me? Are you blaming me?" I snapped. "I mean, you're the one who went to the guest room just so I can't hav

    "You don’t want to take a shower with me, but I sure want to take a shower with you. So, how about we go inside together anyway?" Jethro argued and followed me into the bathroom. I was about to kick him out when he removed his clothes. Seeing his sexy, toned figure made me avert my gaze."What the hell are you waiting for? Me to remove your clothes?" he commented suggestively."Excuse me? No, thank you!" I began to take off my clothes too. I just wanted to take a bath and relax. Jolene's earlier words stung though I tried my hardest to not let them get to me. I sometimes wondered why I kept trying to help those who clearly didn't want my help.Jethro and I were both submerged in the bathtub together. He held me in his arms. "So, you went with Jolene for her check-up today?""How did you know?" I asked, bewildered. "Mace.""Damn that big mouth.""You don't have to make any calls. I already told him to get the best doctor on the case," Jethro continued to my increasing surpri

    I couldn't stop myself from rolling my eyes. I'd been satisfying his sexual needs every single goddamn day! How shameless was this guy?"I'll provide that sanctuary if you can satisfy me first. That's the real reason why you haven't had a good sleep lately—you failed to give me a good sleep," he argued back."God, you're gonna die from exhaustion one day!" I snarled. I was losing patience with him. I had made myself clear and still he acted like he was in the right."At our current rate, nah."I stared at Jethro helplessly. I was beginning to think he and I had no other common topic. I climbed out of the tub and began getting dressed. I was not going to fight him."Come on. You're not gonna give me an answer at least? I was holding in my impulse the whole of last night. It was really tough," Jethro mumbled in dismay as he watched me walk away. I ignored him and laid on the bed. I was close to sleep when he climbed in. He pulled me into an embrace again. I felt my heart poundin

    I wanted Mason to get a girlfriend as soon as possible so that I didn't have to keep feeling guilty."Meh, we'll see. I can't just make any random woman my girlfriend. I think I wanna torment myself over the sad fact that the woman I like became someone else's wife," Mason said noncommittally."Ugh, I'm changing the subject. We're heading to the hospital today, so…see ya around." The sooner Jolene underwent the procedure, the lower the risk to her health. I hung up and went straight to Evelyn's house. She met me with pronounced shadows under her eyes. It made my heart ache. "I got a doctor. We should go today. The sooner, the better," I said. "I think so too. Let's go," she replied.Jolene nodded woodenly.When we arrived at the hospital, the doctor checked Jolene’s vitals and prepped for the procedure. Evelyn was very worried and kept asking if Jolene would be fine. We had to wait outside, and Evelyn held my hand the whole time."Don’t worry too much. It’ll be fine. The d

    "You're still at work?" I asked.Jethro was such a workaholic. It hurt me to see him work for such long hours. "No. A friend needs my help, so I'll be home late.""I see. Well, see ya then. I have to check on Jolene later."I trusted him, of course. Others would worry when they heard their spouse would be coming home late, but not me. I packed some of the bone broth I made and returned to the hospital. I shot a look at the end of the corridor. The figure earlier had been so familiar. It couldn't be Jethro though, could it?Jolene was a lot more alert and spirited than the last time I saw her. She glared at me when I arrived but said nothing. I placed the thermos on the bedside table, ignoring her. "Here. Bone broth. I'll go get some water."Evelyn was up there in age, and I didn’t want her to undertake so many menial tasks. When I got back, she was feeding Jolene."Thank you, Rina. You've helped us so much recently," Evelyn said gratefully after Jolene finished the broth."I

    “I was busy last night and was finishing up my backlog of work,” Jethro answered noncommittally. With that, he went upstairs.I was exasperated. That was the entirety of his explanation?Losing my appetite, I ate a few more bites and went upstairs too. Jethro had finished his shower by then. He glanced at me, then went to bed. "Where were you last night?" I demanded, starting to grow a little anxious. "I told you, with a friend who needed my help.""A friend? A man or a woman?" He had to be hiding something from me. I had been betrayed before, and this sort of thing brought its own trauma."Do you not trust me? You wouldn’t ask me such a thing if you did," Jethro replied, upset."It's not about trust—I feel insecure. I called you multiple times, but you didn't pick up a single call. Are you going to explain anything?"I didn't think Jethro would betray me, but my insecurity was weighing heavy. "My phone died," he replied flatly as he hugged me. "Look, we've been together

    I knew that nothing I said to the contrary was going to convince Jethro otherwise. All he cared about now was protecting his little princess. "Okay then, I'll be waiting for you at home. Don't work overtime tonight, okay?""Got it! I'll be home soon," he agreed smilingly. I was sure he’d have gone home with me straight away if it weren't for work.Doris was already waiting by the time I got home. She looked both excited and assured. "So? Pregnant, right?""You nailed it!" I laughed."Oh dear! Seren’s going to get a sibling soon!" she chirped. I shook my head helplessly. I should’ve been the happiest one, but the Willows were just one-upping me one after another right now. I smiled at Doris. "I'm a little tired, so I'll be in my room.""Go, go. I'll get the housekeeper to make something nutritious for you," Doris replied. Jethro came home a lot earlier than usual. He had a large bouquet of roses with him too. I couldn’t recall when was the last time he gave me flowers."Is thi

    Mason chuckled dryly. "Well, well. Working hard, huh? You’re expecting again."I felt guilty for having asked him for help now. It was as if I was putting salt on his wound. I avoided his gaze and decided to go around him. "Umm, if it inconveniences you, then I wouldn't mind joining the line. See ya."He frowned and stepped in my way. He smiled. "I've already made the arrangements, Serena. Just go."Despite his smile, I could tell Mason was simply hiding his feelings. I sighed. I didn't want to hurt him, but he never seemed to change. He kept doing things for me, and I was simultaneously moved and frustrated by his loyalty. But I could only ever love Jethro. I could never reciprocate Mason’s feelings. I silently followed him into the consultation room. A while later, the doctor confirmed that I was pregnant. I felt as though I had soared to the sky, and I wondered how Jethro would feel about this. Mason was by my side the entire time, so naturally, he was privy to the news. I fa

    I woke up the next morning feeling like a well-wrung-out-rag. I had gotten home late, and Jethro kept me up till the wee hours of the morning. I had only fallen asleep just before dawn.Restless, I turned to look at Jethro who was deep asleep and felt slightly resentful. He had worn me out last night, yet here he was, sleeping peacefully without a care. I sat up and gently nudged him awake. Even though he had exhausted me, he was the one who had truly exerted himself, so he was certainly even more tired than I was.Jethro opened his eyes groggily, asking sleepily. "What’s wrong?""Do you even have to ask?" I retorted."Did I not satisfy you last night? Well, are you up for more then?" he teased.I stared at him, dumbfounded. Why was he always thinking such thoughts? When had I ever hinted that I wanted another round?Irritated, I shot him a glance and decided to get out of bed to wash up. While I brushed my teeth, I suddenly felt a wave of nausea. I found this strange. I hadn't e

    Jethro’s anger ebbed away upon hearing my words, though his face continued to carry a trace of annoyance."That's more like it. Remember, if this happens again, you’re never leaving the house ever again," he warned.I wasn't upset that he was angry. I understood it was because he cared about me. I would’ve felt the same if the roles were reversed. After all, worry was a byproduct of care."Were you waiting up for me?" I asked, realizing Jethro was still up in the living room though it was well past two in the morning."What else would I be doing?" he replied in a mix of irritation and relief."Geez, I've already apologized. Let's not dwell on this," I responded playfully, trying to defuse the tension. "Let's head to bed. I'm exhausted," I suggested, more than ready to end the evening. Taking his hand, I led us toward the bedroom.Sensing my weariness, Jethro followed without further comment. After a soothing shower, I felt much better despite the physical exhaustion. My mood, how

    "You just implied that it wouldn’t matter if you faced such trauma again. If that's what you think, I might as well help it happen!" I said to Jolene, purposefully using harsh words to instill fear in her. My goal was to shock her into realizing the gravity of her actions. My real concern was for Evelyn—Jolene’s recklessness was causing Evelyn undue stress."Let me go, Serena! You’re insane!" Jolene protested, but I continued to tug at her, undeterred by her panic and anger. I wanted to teach her a lesson for her lack of empathy and respect."I'm the crazy one? It seems like you’re the one who has lost your mind, Jolene! Can’t you see what you’re doing to your mom? If you can’t handle life's challenges, then stop causing her pain!" Driven by frustration, I dragged her outside.Jolene then managed to break free, retreating and glaring at me fearfully. "Get the hell away from me! I don't wanna see you!" she yelled, visibly shaken.Seeing her sufficiently alarmed, I stopped, fixing he

    "Seeing Jojo like this is breaking my heart.” Evelyn held my hand, her face marked by deep sorrow."I know you're upset, but don't worry, I'll talk some sense into her." Seeing Evelyn's distress, I felt uneasy. Though I was reluctant to interfere in Jolene's life, I couldn't ignore Evelyn's pain.I waited at Evelyn's house until late at night before Jolene finally returned. It was almost one in the morning, and my irritation surged upon seeing her. Jolene, reeking of alcohol, was a far cry from her former self. Her transformation was stark. Dressed provocatively and caked in heavy makeup, she resembled a hooker more than a member of a respectable family.I marched over to her "Jolene," I called out, unable to hide my annoyance.She stopped and faced me. She asked in a hostile tone, "What are you doing here at this hour?""Waiting for you." I faced her with a frosty demeanor."Waiting for me? I'm tired and have no interest in talking to you." Impatiently, Jolene turned to head ups

    Lianna stared at Jethro tearfully, her voice laden with pain. "But I still love you. You once promised to love me forever. Why has that promise changed?""I might still harbor those feelings if we hadn't parted ways. But time changes emotions, and what we had can't be rekindled," Jethro replied, his tone reflecting a seriousness I hadn't seen in him before."Don't leave me, Jethro, please. I know I was wrong to leave you for money. Give me another chance. I can bring back the love we once had,” Lianna pleaded, clutching at Jethro's arm.Standing by the sidelines, I watched the scene expressionlessly. I wasn't worried because I knew Jethro would never return to her. His heart belonged to me now.Jethro withdrew his arm, and his gaze toward Lianna was cold and distant. "I’ve said all there is to say. Our relationship ends here. From now on, please stay out of my life. Stop bothering me," he stated firmly, then took my hand and walked out of the room, leaving Lianna behind.In the ca

    The blood test was swiftly completed, but we had to wait three days for the paternity test results. Mason assured us he would notify us as soon as they were out.As Jethro and I were leaving the hospital, Lianna suddenly called out, "Jethro!” Her face was pale and her eyes filled with sadness."What else do you want?" Jethro asked in a detached tone.Lianna glanced at me, then continued, "I just want to ask you one thing. If Robin is your son, will you acknowledge him? Have you ever considered accepting us back into your life?""If he's my child, I'll take responsibility. But if not, please stay out of my life forever."Jethro was extremely serious as he spoke, his gaze toward Lianna emotionless. Her tears flowed as she listened to him, her expression becoming even more pained."Fine. If he isn’t your child, I’ll leave with him. But I’m certain he’s your child because you're the only man I've ever been with!" After saying this emotionally charged statement, Lianna sped off.Watc

    "Are you being completely honest, Rina? You're not covering for this brat, are you? If he has an illegitimate child, I'll break his legs!" Raymond's gaze shifted to me, his disbelief apparent.I was taken aback by Raymond's words but also felt a sense of solidarity. It was clear he was supporting me."It’s the truth, Grandpa. I guarantee that the child Lianna has isn’t Jethro's. If you doubt him, surely you’ll believe me, right? If that boy were Jethro’s, would I be calmly discussing this with you now?" I said."Then we'll wait for the test results.” Seemingly somewhat convinced by my assurance, he gave Jethro a cold snort and looked away.Jethro frowned, clearly unhappy, but he remained silent. Witnessing the family's united front against him was oddly gratifying for me. Back in our bedroom, I felt pretty upbeat and couldn’t help humming a tune. Though Lianna's child wasn’t Jethro's, the recent tensions had weighed on me heavily. Seeing the family rally around me felt like a small
