Sabrina Hart A privileged woman who was born as an Alpha’s daughter, and a granddaughter of the most notorious mafia boss. She’s beautiful, decisive, and well-respected in their pack. She has everything except love and a husband. Then, she saw Kenneth Mcbride. It was love at first sight but Kenneth despised spoiled-brats. He wanted he could boss around. Knowing this, Sabrina introduced herself as an omega, and pretended to be weak and submissive just to get his attention. Kenneth Mcbride He belonged to a conservative and traditional family of wealthy rogues. It was strictly forbidden to bed a woman unless she was the wife. One evening, he was discovered in a compromising position after a woman named Sabrina Hart seduced him into her. He was forced to marry the heroine after compromising her. Because he already had someone he loved, he hated Sabrina very much. He was indifferent to her after the wedding, and he even permitted others to treat her harshly. He only realized his mistake when Sabrina asked for a divorce. Can he win her back?
View MoreThe views in the city of Azura were breathtaking, and nothing could beat the crunch of the leaves beneath her feet as she walked, and it seemed that the huffing wind was too lazy to scatter the leaves. One of these days, she planned to go on a countryside tour with her husband, Kenneth McBride to enjoy the breathtaking scenery. Autumn was a season for a fresh start or new beginnings, and it was just one of the reasons why Sabrina Hart loved autumn so much. Temperatures began to fall after the intense heat of summer, and trees that were once green burst into brilliant gold, red, and orange hues.
Yes, she loved autumn but after marrying Kenneth three years ago, she wasn’t able to enjoy her favourite season. She was dripping wet from head to toe as she stood in the garden and she was shivering in the cold but nobody paid attention. Several servants were passing by but she doubted if they ever noticed her! They were focused on the man dressed in a white coat who was standing at the entrance of the villa.
She played no significant role in the household and no one would pay attention to her, despite the fact that she was an heiress of her family’s fortune. It was embarrassing and painful to admit, but the dog that was raised by her husband’s sister was more important to the family. In addition to her misery, she was nothing compared to her sister-in-law, Isabelle Ortega. She and Isabelle were worlds apart, and everyone in the family adored Isabelle, including her husband. Yes, that’s right. Kenneth McBride adored Isabelle and treated her like a precious gem.
Speaking of Isabelle, Sabrina’s eyes widened in surprise upon seeing Isabelle at the pool. She ran towards her sister-in-law and grabbed the woman’s wrist. “What are you doing? You’re not fit to do it,” she reminded Isabelle that jumping to the pool could be dangerous to her pregnancy. The doctor suggested bed rest for the woman because of cervical insufficiency. “Stop!” She urged Isabelle to stop wiggling her wrist.
Isabelle smirked and said, “Then, stop me.”
Sabrina lost her balance when Isabelle pulled her, and together, they both fell into the water. The deepest part of the pool was only 1.5 meters in depth but it was scary for Sabrina. She was not an adept swimmer unlike Isabelle, so she was struggling to get out of the water. When he saw her husband jumping into the pool, she was relieved. However, he saved the other woman, instead of her. She could only bite her bottom lip as she watched her husband carrying Isabelle.
Kenneth didn’t even notice how much she struggled to get out of the water. With Isabelle in his arms, he ran back to the villa without turning to look at her. She gather all of her strength and courage to get out of the water but as she entered the villa, she heard that Kenneth requested the most qualified medical professional in Azura to check on Isabelle.
Sabrina watched how everyone in her husband’s family encircled Isabelle Ortega. They all looked worried for her sister-in-law, while she was regarded as nothing more than worthless trash. Once again, she was hurt and disappointed at their treatment. Silently, she made her back to her bedroom. Her body was exhausted, and her heart was broken several times! After three years of receiving maltreatment from Kenneth’s family, she should get used to it, but no, it wasn’t the case! She was hurting every single time they would ignore her like a nobody!
Inside her room, Sabrina finally let her sadness and disappointed rolled down her cheeks, and then she walked toward the bathroom. After stripping all of her clothes, she turned on the shower and placed her body under the flowing water. She scrubbed herself clean before going out, then she went to the closet to choose a pajama. After rummaging through her closet, she donned an outgrown set of pajamas.
After drying her hair, she climbed onto the bed and slipped her body under the comforter. Her body and heart were so exhausted, so she dozed off without realizing it, and didn’t wake up until someone ordered her to open her eyes.
"Wake up!"
Sabrina suddenly became aware of a chilly voice in her ears. Then she slowly opened her eyes, and then the blanket that had been draped over her body was suddenly taken away. She just woke up and was disoriented. She had to squint her eyes to see him clearly. When she finally recognized her husband, she instantly blushed.
“How is Isabelle doing?” Sabrina inquired as she got out of bed. Then, she rubbed her temple as she noticed that Kenneth seemed to be in a foul mood. When the realization hit her, she immediately shook her head to deny something, and said, “I didn’t push her!”
Kenneth regarded her with cold eyes. Then, he scowled at her and ordered, “Get dressed and follow me to the ancestral hall!”
After listening to his words, Sabrina was worried. She stared at her husband, but she was too stunned to speak! She took her time in speaking what was inside her head, but after mustering the courage to ask, she demanded to know the reason. “What do you mean I have to go to the ancestral hall?”
Kenneth narrowed his eyes at her and said, “You should apologize.” After saying that, he didn’t even bother to spare a glance in her direction. “Are you going to get dressed now or I’ll have to drag you in that outfit?”
When Sabrina heard his words, she was taken aback and surprised. It was the same as if she had been submerged in a basin of icy water in the dead of winter and soaked from head to toe. “Listen,” she tried to explain but then he decided to drag her out of the room and into the hallway. It looked like he was dragging something filthy behind him. It looked like he was dragging a bag of garbage!
On the other hand, Kenneth refused to engage in a conversation with Sabrina. Isabelle’s body was weak, and his wife knew too well about Isabelle’s condition. After rescuing her from the pool, he didn’t hesitate to call for medical assistance; however, the unborn child in her womb did not survive, and his brother was devastated by the loss of his only offspring. He blamed Sabrina for everything and he decided it was pointless to continue talking about it! His family was grieving for the loss of his brother’s unborn child, and being Sabrina’s husband, he was partly blamed! He hated Sabrina because of it!
“Kenneth, please listen to me! I didn’t push her!” Sabrina continued to explain her side but he didn’t listen. He refused to listen to her. He refused to give her the benefit of the doubt and continued dragging her body to the ancestral hall.
The ancestral hall of the McBride family was a dangerous place. There was a rumour that the person who was dragged to the hall recently never came back, and that person was presumed to be dead! Sabrina shivered at the thought of being punished for something she didn’t do!
“I assure you that I didn’t push Isabelle into the pool! In fact, it was her, who pulled me into the pool!” She made a valiant effort to free herself from Kenneth’s grasp but failed. Even as the pain turned her pale, he held onto her even tighter.
“If you have anything to say, please communicate it to my family,” he said.
Sabrina stumbled after Kenneth. She looked at his profile and noticed how well-defined it was. Due to the attractiveness of her husband, she was willing to jeopardize her relationship with her family in order to marry him. She compromised a lot because of him, but in the end, he could never give her the love that she deserved. How ironic! Since they had been married, he had never done anything nice for her, but she endured the pain for three, long years!
It was stupid of her to believe that she could melt the ice in his heart. She was under the impression that she could make him a better person, and she also believed that he would develop some feelings for her, but she was completely wrong! He had no interest in anyone else but Isabelle Ortega!
She was under the impression, for a period of three years, that no matter how icy his heart was, she could make it feel better. However, she was utterly wrong. He had no interest in anyone else but Isabelle Ortega. Kenneth just used her to hide his true relationship with Isabelle. He has totally given his heart to Isabelle, and there is no more space for her!
"Let me go!” Sabrina shouted while using all of her strength to get away from him. Kenneth narrowed his eyes to study her expression, and he was probably shocked to see her chilly smile. “I can walk to the hall,” she said, and her voice was uninterested and flat.
When Kenneth looked at her, his dark eyes flashed with disgust and he turned away. He clamped his lips together and tried to stifle the rage that was rising up in his chest. After that, he got to his feet and started walking in the direction of the ancestral hall.
Sabrina Hart did a complete about-face to confront him. She was convinced that the previous three years had all been an elaborate hoax. She was dressed in nothing but a nightgown that reached her knees and barefoot. She moved cautiously toward the brightly lit ancestral hall while making small steps.
Her eyes darted towards the shoes that was provided, and she recalled that two days earlier, Kenneth had knelt down in front of Isabelle and assisted her in putting on socks and leather shoes before she went out. In addition to that, he was constantly harping on the fact that she had to keep herself warm and look after herself.
Sabrina Hart gave Kenneth McBride a mocking smile. The idea that she wanted to stay with his family was a joke. Then, she looked around and saw that all of his relatives were waiting for her arrival.
"Get on your knees!"
Despite having consumed a lot, Sabrina's face still lingered in his mind. She had a strong sense of pride, so he knew how much she restrained herself from crying in front of him.During the time they spent together, he had gotten to know her well, and he was certain she was still awake. He glanced at his watch and realized it was almost midnight. Kenneth contemplated as he stared at his cellphone, wanting to call Sabrina since earlier.He wanted to seek advice from friends who had happy love lives but he hesitated. It was already late at night, so he was sure they were asleep. He had tried to convince himself several times that what he did was for the sake of both of them, but he didn't want to hurt Sabrina. When he handed her Scarlet's passbook earlier, she couldn't hide the tremor in her voice from him.Whenever he was with Sabrina, he never felt bored. There were times when she was mischievous, and there were times when she was overly serious. Despite the fluctuations in her mood,
She felt deeply hurt when Kenneth didn't even look at her before leaving without saying goodbye. Was their conversation earlier just a joke? The way he acted, it was as if they didn't even know each other. She stood up and followed him, but suddenly hesitated, so she decided to call him instead. While waiting for Kenneth to answer her call, she felt extremely nervous."So that's it then?" she asked anxiously."Yes," was the only response from him.Sabrina couldn't help but think of going back inside to bid farewell to her assistant. Didn't he know how difficult it was for her to set aside her pride? She waited for a few seconds for his response, but he just said "yes"? My god! She might turn into a criminal on Meghan's resort opening day. She hopped on her scooter and quickly started it. When she arrived home, she rushed inside. Her mother greeted her with a furrowed brow."Mom, where's Scarlet?" She should have been looking for Kenneth, but she felt embarrassed in front of her mother
Kenneth attempted to talk to Sabrina again, but she firmly rejected his plea. He had no choice but to be content with watching her from a distance. He sighed several times as he reflected on his actions towards Sabrina, wincing as he realized that it was unlikely he would be given another chance. Perhaps if he had restrained himself a few days earlier, they wouldn't have reached this point of separation."Excuse me, sir."His reflection on the past was interrupted when a woman suddenly appeared in front of him. Before acknowledging the woman, who probably just wanted to get his number, he glanced back at Sabrina and his jaw dropped when he saw her sweetly smiling at a guest."Sir, this is for you," the woman said.Kenneth accepted what the woman gave him and opened it. His forehead furrowed deeper as he read the contents of the letter, and his expression changed for a brief moment."What's this?" he asked the woman as he approached her."Don't you know how to read? It's clear what I w
TWO MONTHS LATER...It was Valentine's Day and the grand opening of Meghan's resort. The entire staff, especially those from the kitchen and reception, were busy. Meanwhile, Sabrina was sitting calmly near the main entrance of the resort. Her gift shop wasn't officially open yet because she didn't want to coincide with Meghan's opening. However, they decided to set up a small table near the entrance, and every guest of the resort would receive a little gift from her shop.Sabrina wasn't really at a loss because Meghan provided the flowers for free. It was for the resort's opening, after all. She only had to make an effort, and even the supplies came from Meghan. It was also a form of free promotion for her gift shop."Congrats, Meghan," she greeted the woman, who looked bossy in her red dress. The resort had a gold theme like her house, but Meghan chose to wear a red dress, probably to make it easier for her staff to find her."Thank you, Sabrina. Wait, something seems different about
The next morning, Margaret woke up early and approached Meghan and Sabrina. Last night, she was disturbed by their loud noise while she was sleeping. She felt compelled to go downstairs and check what was going on and why Meghan and Sabrina were making so much noise."You're acting like children!" Margaret shouted at the two girls who, if they hadn't surpassed the age on the calendar, wouldn't be so unruly."It's just a game, Mom!" Sabrina replied. "Do you want me to go crazy with sadness?""Stop talking back to me, Sabrina! What do you mean by going crazy with sadness? Fix your life, or I'll be forced to let Brandon straighten you out!""Mom, we're not children anymore for you to scold us like this. We just wanted to have fun, so we played last night. What's wrong with that?"Margaret realized that Sabrina was right. It was just a game, and she shouldn't be worried. But she had read that most people who spend too much time on online games are either bored or deeply depressed."There
Meghan had suggested before that she should try signing up for dating sites to find someone more suitable than Kenneth. She opened her Tinder account and was surprised to see that she was repeatedly asked for a password. She must have entered it incorrectly, even though she used the same password for everything.She took a deep breath before repeating the signing-up process. However, browsing through potential men near her seemed discouraging. Because within six months, she had probably tried all the dating sites and she grew tired of searching for a man who could surpass Kenneth, so she decided to go back to the files related to her business idea."Hello, Meghan," she said when the woman answered on the other line. "Don't you still have vacant space in your resort? If you haven't found a tenant yet, I'll take it. Just prepare the contract of lease and hand it over to the lawyer," she said."Are you sure about that?""Yep! After I eat, I'll go to the city hall to personally process t
Due to Kenneth's departure, Sabrina completely lost herself. She was always in a daze, and in fact, she had neglected Scarlet for several days. Perhaps if she had listened to the man, he wouldn't have left. Maybe if she had immediately believed that he didn't deceive her, their planned marriage would have pushed through."Aren't you going to stop anymore?" Margaret angrily asked Sabrina, who had been crying and worrying for several days.Sabrina burst into even louder sobs because as time went on, she missed Alexander even more. "I can't contact him anymore, Mom.""You pushed his patience to the limit, Sabrina. What if your wedding had pushed through, and you were still like this? You didn't want to listen to him," Margaret blamed Sabrina, but after a moment, she regretted it. "I'm sorry, but you have to endure the pain of losing him.""I can't live without him," Sabrina replied, wiping her tears and slowly making a decision. She would search for Kenneth and bring him to the altar, ev
Upon hearing those words from the woman, it felt like she had killed him and buried him alive. It was far from his imagination that their relationship would be destroyed. If it weren't for Isabelle meddling in his life again, Sabrina's perception of him wouldn't have changed.Kenneth assumed that Sabrina's anger towards him would only be temporary, but he didn't expect that she would also ignore him at home. She moved to a different room, and every time they crossed paths, she wouldn't acknowledge him. One morning, while he was heading to the kitchen to eat, he encountered Sabrina near the staircase, so he blocked her way."Can we talk?""Oh, so you're still here," Sabrina said flatly, and the man was clearly surprised by her words.Kenneth was taken aback by the woman's statement. What did she want him to do? Leave and abandon Scarlet? "Wherever you are, I'm there too," Kenneth said.Sabrina sighed and tried to slip past Kenneth, but when he stood his ground, she kicked his leg. "Get
After Kenneth left, Sabrina wiped away her tears. She didn't like crying in front of other people. Getting angry, yes, but crying where someone could see? She had never done that in her entire life, but earlier she struggled to hold herself back. It was difficult for her to remain brave even though she wanted to just die.As she lay on the bed, her tears continued to flow, and no matter how hard she tried to stop them, she couldn't. She wanted to sleep to forget everything, but sleep seemed elusive for Sabrina. She tried closing her eyes, but she kept seeing images of Kenneth with another woman.Even though he denied it multiple times, she still didn't believe him. It was obvious from the pictures that the two of them were happy together. Kenneth even had his arm around his mistress. He said the pictures were taken a long time ago but she didn’t believe him.If she weren't pregnant, she would have confronted the woman and dragged her on the street. The thought crossed her mind as she
