While waiting for Isabelle, Kenneth recalled the moment he first saw her. He just got back in Azura at that time and since Daniel was already engaged, his grandfather decided to also find a woman for him. Then, he was arranged to meet Isabelle’s cousin. Fortunately, they both disliked each other and since then, Gabriel McBride allowed him to choose a woman to date as long as he wouldn’t marry her. When it comes to choosing his wife, Gabriel would have a last say on the matter.

After Daniel’s engagement to an heiress named Isabelle Ortega, Kenneth was tagged as the popular bachelor in town, but over time, Kenneth had grown weary of his reputation as the most sought-after bachelor in the country.

Women from diverse backgrounds constantly pursued him, leaving him exhausted from deflecting their advances. He often questioned whether these women would still be interested in him if he had nothing to offer, or if he were dirt poor. Then, he couldn’t help but envy his brother for having the m

    The room was dark when she entered, and she had anticipated that he might refuse her request. However, she had already stepped inside and turned on the lamp beside his bed. He gasped in surprise upon seeing her but he had no choice but to keep quiet. With Sabrina in the other room, they shouldn’t make unnecessary noise.“I thought you are going to wait for me in the garden,” he reminded her.“Yes, I was supposed to, but I miss you already, Ken,” she replied and then she heard him groan and curse simultaneously before he hugged her.“I miss you too, Isabelle, but this is risky! My wife is in the other room and she might hear us!”“Or she wouldn’t! Sabrina was probably tired, don’t you think?”“Well, she must be tired from doing everything earlier. Where’s Daniel? Isn’t he home yet?”Isabelle shook her head without giving further details. Her husband suddenly became busy after the wedding. Meetings here and there, and he neglected her wife. Fortunately, his brother was kind enough to ac

As she entered, she found her husband with Isabelle, and she wondered why Isabelle paid a visit again!"Sorry, I overslept," she said with a

    Sabrina woke up with a terrible headache. Kenneth was right. The rain wouldn’t be good for her health. Last night, she almost succeeded in seducing him but he was back to his senses before something intimate could happen.As soon as she woke up, she followed her routine. After taking a quick shower, she went to the kitchen to prepare their breakfast. It had always been her routine each day. After marrying into the family, she was just a plain housewife. She was setting up the table when Kenneth entered the kitchen.“What’s wrong?” Sabrina asked as soon as she saw the worried expression on Kenneth’s face.“Grandfather called. He wants to see us, Sabrina,” he panicked.“Can we eat breakfast first before heading there? The food is ready, Ken,” she told him.“Alright, but we must hurry!”So, they ate in a hurry. Sabrina wasn’t able to enjoy the food even if she was hungry. After filling her stomach with bacon and eggs and some fruits, she immediately drank her coffee. Just like Kenneth, S

    Sabrina thought it would be nice to visit the garden after her shower. Despite the several plots of land with flowers on the estate, the flower vases inside the house were empty."Where are you going in that outfit?" a man's voice questioned.Sabrina stared at the man, who was casually lounging on the sofa, and raised her eyebrows. "You're not supposed to be home," she reminded him of their earlier conversation during breakfast. “You said you will go to the general store.”“I changed my mind, Sabrina. So, where are you going in that outfit?”“Why? What's wrong with my outfit, anyway?" she retorted."It's too revealing," he commented, scowling."What's revealing about my outfit? Besides, who cares? I'll just be in the garden, and nobody's home," she reasoned."I am home," he stated, causing Sabrina to arch her eyebrows."You can pretend that you're not here," she jested, walking out of the main house with a pair of scissors.“My grandfather made a grave mistake in sending us here, Sabr

    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.
