Everyone dressed up for the occasion on the day of the twins' christening. Baby Sarah was wearing a cute little pink princess dress, and Baby Stan wore little blue pants and a shirt."Wow, my angels look super duper cute today!" Sherry giggled, posing on the bed, holding both infants in her arms while Axel took photos of his lovely family.The door opened, and Clara entered the room. "Guys, time to go to the church!" she said happily."Is the decoration done already? The food already arrived?" Axel asked his mother."Yes, son. The party venue looks amazing," Clara replied. "Let's go!""Good!" Axel removed baby Stan from his wife's arms and walked to the door. Sherry followed her husband to the door, holding baby Sarah.The couple's entourage left the mansion, got into their vehicles, and drove to the church, a 15-minute drive from the mansion.When they arrived there, the mass was about to start. They entered the church and settled on the pews near the altar. The mass started.The pri
The following day, Sherry woke up to a sunny day. The twins were already up, but Axel was still sleeping. She checked the twin's diapers and changed them, then fed them breastmilk.After feeding the infants, she put them to bed and played with them. She showered their chubby cheeks, arms, and feet with light, feathery kisses, wanting them to feel her maternal love and devotion.Axel rubbed his eyes gently and looked at his wife and children. "Good morning!" he conveyed his greetings cheerfully.Sherry glanced at him and replied, "Good morning!"Axel left the bed, kissed the twin's cheeks, and went to the bathroom.After emerging from the bathroom, Axel went to bed and faced Sherry. "Hon, we need to talk before you inform our parents about the divorce," he said calmly.Sherry put the babies in their cribs and faced her husband. "You are right. I will tell them everything about your cheating and also my cheating. They deserve to know that we f
On the 3rd day, the couple finally decides to come out in the open without hesitation. They gathered their parents in the study room of the mansion for the heartbreaking revelation.The elderlies sat on the couch beside each other, feeling confused about what the announcement would be.Vikki watched her daughter anxiously. Sherry has been avoiding her eyes ever since they entered the room. She got a feeling that the couple was about to tell them bad news, and she was inwardly bracing for it.Edd eyed his son with a raised brow. "Son, why did you bring us here in your study room?""Is there something wrong, son?" Clara asked apprehensively.Joe looked at his daughter. "What's going on?"Sherry cleared her throat, feeling nervous. "Um, I will let Axel talk first," she said, looking at her husband.The expression on Axel's face was that of a person who just lost everything. He looked at the faces of his parents and in-laws for a few seco
The Carter couple entered the master's bedroom to talk to their willful daughter.Vikki lowered herself to the bed and touched her daughter's arms. "Daughter, please talk to us. It's never too late to correct your mistake. Please don't destroy your marriage. Your husband is still willing to make the marriage work as long you cooperate with him," she said gently, hoping her daughter would listen to her advice."Mom, you don't understand. I don't love my husband anymore. I can't stay in a loveless! Please understand my situation!" Sherry looked at her mother with tear-stricken eyes."Why? Did your husband hurt you physically? Did he abuse you?" Joe asked."No. Axel never hit me physically. But I fell out of love with him the moment he forced me to sign the divorce paper, and I met the love of my life on the island, where I stayed for a short vacation. It's my husband's fault that I met that guy and fell in love with him during the lowest moments of my life.
Axel fell silent momentarily, then replied, "Um... one month after today."Sherry's forehead furrowed. Is this another of her husband's tricks to keep her longer in the house. "Huh? Why so long?" she protested."Let's give our parents the impression that we are trying to patch up our marriage. Then, we will find the perfect time for you to leave. That's the plan. Or do you have a better plan?" Axel asked."Why are you doing this? Why are you helping me?" Sherry asked, eying him suspiciously."Because this is my atonement to you. This is my way of asking your forgiveness for hurting you. Nothing good would come if we were going to have a nasty divorce. I don't like that problem now that I have two infants to care for. I want peace of mind. I certainly won't die if you leave me. Our twins and I will survive without you by our side. We will keep living, come what may. I will deal with the pain every day, just like everyone else out there. Don't worry, the ch
The following day, the elderlies extended their stay in the mansion for a month instead of going home to ensure the couple were serious about fixing their crumbling marriage.Axel was back in the master's bedroom, and for the first time after the divorce fiasco, the couple was staying in the same room, to Sherry's dismay.Axel noticed the scowl on Sherry's face. "This won't last long, I promise. After one month, when they feel that we are both serious about making our marriage work, they will return to where they belong and leave us alone," he assured her.Sherry sighed. "What can I say? I have no choice," she replied dispiritedly, folding the twin's clothes and arranging them in the closet."Just bear a little bit. Our parents are still suspecting that we are faking our reconciliation. But once they see that we are sincere with our intention, they will lower their guard down and eventually go home and leave us alone. So, from now on, let's bring back nor
That night when Axel arrived home, the couple have dinner with their folks, retire to their room and bonded with their twins.Sherry was cradling her daughter lovingly in her arms. She glanced at her husband playing with baby Stan. "Can I pay for the villa in the resort?" she asked.Axel looked at her. "Oh, so you already have the resort. What resort is it?" he asked."It's the Seven Star Resort located in the the White Island," Sherry responded."Nice! That resort is new and I haven't been there. Brilliant choice!" Axel said. "Um, regarding the booking, it should be under my name just in case our family will investigate. Let me get my phone and book a villa for 3 days," he put baby Stan on the bed and grabbed his phone.A few minutes later, he looked at Sherry. "What type of villa you like to stay with?" he inquired."I want a villa overlooking the beach with its own pool, it's called The Sunset Villa," Sherry replied."Alright, I'll
Axel smirked. "Let's get into the bed," he said casually, entering the bedroom. When he looked behind him, his wife was not following him. "Why are you standing there?" he asked."I'm not going inside that room. I don't trust the smirk on your face," Sherry said, holding her ground.Axel sat on the edge of the end and beckoned her to come to the bed. "Come here. We need to take more photos around the house so I can finally go to the theme park.""Keep your hands to your side! No monkey business!" Sherry glared at him."No problem," Axel said, preparing his phone.Sherry entered the room and sat beside her husband on the edge of the bed."Smile!" Axel said.Sherry flashed a bright smile to the camera."Done!" Axel said. He rose and walked to the door, "Follow me to the kitchen," he commanded.Sherry followed her husband to the kitchen, the pool area, and the balcony as they took photos of their smiling faces."Done
~Nine Months Later~ One sunny day. Inside one of the private rooms of Silver Lake Hospital, Kristina and Russell welcome their first child, a healthy baby boy. Feeling amazed and proud, Russell can't get his eyes off his son. He looks so healthy and big. Tears of happiness shimmered in his eyes while cradling his beloved firstborn. Kristina smiled radiantly. Seeing the father and son bonding skin to skin was a dream come true for her. "Is he sleeping now?" she asked. Russell looked at Kristina and replied, "Yes, he is. He's still a day old. He will keep sleeping for now and only wake up if he's hungry. That's what the nurse told me." "OK. Give our son to me if he is already awake so I can breastfeed him," Kristina said, smiling brightly. She loves being a mother for the first time and getting closer to the guy she fell in love with in such a short time. She hoped he wouldn't discard her easily, knowing she came from a humble beginning, not wealthy like him. Russell continues gazi
Two months later.At 9:00 in the morning, Sherry went to the hospital to fetch her husband. She settled the hospital bills first before going to her husband's room. Three days ago, Axel had finished his physical therapy and was given a go signal to go home by his therapist.When Sherry arrived at the room, Axel already finished packing his things. Clara and Edd went home yesterday to oversee the welcome party they had prepared for their son, starting at 3:00 in the afternoon today."Everything is pack already?" Sherry asked, looking at the two bags in the corner."Yes, hon! I can't wait to go home. I miss home!" Axel gushes excitedly."Alright, if nothing else, let's go home," Sherry said, heading to the door.Suddenly, Axel hugged Sherry tightly. She looked at his face, surprised by his blatant display of affection. "What are you doing?" she asked.Axel planted a kiss on her head. "I miss you. I just want you to know that I'm grateful that you no longer want to divorce me. I apprecia
After entering Russell's penthouse, Kristina's eyes widened in admiration, dazzled by the incredible luxurious place. "Wow, your place is amazing!" she gushes in delight. "I'm glad you like my man cave. Feel at home," Russell said, plopping down on the couch. Kristina lowered herself onto the comfy couch and continued roaming her eyes around the place equipped with modern appliances and amenities. "Do you like to swim in the pool?" Russell offered. "Yes! Show me your pool!" Kristina replied in a thrilled voice. "Follow me." Russell left the couch and walked towards the pool area. Kristina followed him to the pool area. When they arrived there, she smiled ecstatically. "Wow, your pool is amazing! We can see the view of the entire island here! Fantastic view!" she raved in elation. They settled on the sun loungers. Russell poured the bottle of tequila cocktail drink into the two glasses. "Have a drink," he said, handing the glass to his beautiful companion. "Thank you, Sir!" Kri
She looked into his eyes and said, "Alright, I will no longer divorce you but on one condition..." Axel grinned happily. "I agree to all your conditions as long you will no longer divorce me." Sherry rolled her eyes, amused by his reaction after she told him her condition. Her husband is desperate to keep her by his side, no matter the cost. "Alright, we will talk about this matter after you come home. Today is not the right time to discuss family affairs," she said, dropping the topic quickly. "OK, I understand," Axel said, agreeing to his wife's decision to continue discussing their marital condition some other time. The couple bonded with their adorable twins in the bed. The babies' and their parents' joyous laughter filled the room, bringing joy to everyone's hearts. The parents hoped that today's family reunion could be the start of the couple's reconciliation. Sherry, her mother, and the twins stayed in the hospital until early evening. Clara ordered delicious dishes for di
One week had already passed since he last talked to Sherry. Russel was fighting the urge to call Sherry or send her a heartfelt message. He was expecting that she would beg him to reconcile with him. Unfortunately, she never sent him a message of reconciliation. Has she just forgotten him like that? As in? That hurts really bad! He thought he was very special in Sherry's heart. Why didn't she message him for reconciliation? Russell shook his head, feeling sad and disappointed that the woman he genuinely loved moved on quickly from their breakup as if he didn't exist in her heart. He can do the same if she can move on quickly from their broken relationship. He hated to admit that he did miss her so much, but he also got his pride and ego to think about. No! He won't call or message her asking for a reconciliation. He broke up with her, so be it! He will never back out from his decision. It's final! He will never wait for her. Now that he finally manages to break free from his obse
One week later.Sherry was still holed up in the house, not in the mood to leave the mansion. She didn't even bother to buy a new phone, she didn't care about what her husband think about her silence, and she didn't attempt to chat with Russell through her tablet either.The only thing she cares about are the twins, eating ice cream, and chocolates, binging on foods she likes ordering on home delivery service, and watching films and documentaries on TV.For a brief period of time, she managed to create a world without men in her life and she is doing great. She wants to show Russell that she can move on quickly from their failed relationship despite the pain she felt inside.Sherry was busy checking out baby dresses for her twins on her favorite online store while her mother and Mae put baby clothes and diapers in the bags.Vikki glanced at her daughter and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to come with us to the hospital to visit your husband?"Sherry shook her head. "No. I'll go t
In his penthouse in the Heaven & Sea Restaurant, Russell stared at the sex doll lying on his bed that he named Sherry.'Sweetie, I hate to part with you. Now that your twins and I are no longer in a relationship, I must ditch you. If I keep you in bed, you always remind me of her. I won't be able to forget Sherry, and I can't move on if you always remind me of her. So I have to get rid of you. I'm sorry..." Russell picked up the sex doll, hugged it tightly for the last time, and then put it back in her box.He put the sex doll in the storage room. He will decide later what to do with the doll. He can't throw it in the trash bin because somebody might find it and get interested in using it for personal pleasure. He can't bear having another man using the doll because it's made with Sherry's image.Maybe he will bury the doll a few months later. Not now, because he and Sherry just broke up, the pain still fresh in his heart and mind.Right now, he's not
Russell was drinking hard liquor while reading Sherry's long messages repeatedly. He recalled that he was pissed last night after he learned that Sherry's husband had woken up from his coma.He was disappointed because he was expecting that Axel would never recover from the coma and that one day, he would pass away quietly. After his passing, he and Sherry could finally be together again. But now that Axel woke up, it could only mean one thing: he must wait a long time before reuniting with Sherry. God knows when.How annoying! It made his blood boil. He was enraged that he had to wait over and over again. It's like a repetitive, annoying cycle that never ends.His relationship with Sherry looks impossible now. She had her twins and a paralyzed husband to take care of.He realized that Sherry may not be the right woman for him. He sincerely falls in love with her and deeply cares for her, but things have changed, and he is beginning to see their relations
The following day, Sherry woke up to a sunny day. But her world is about to get darker.She checked her phone, but not a single message from Russell; instead, she got a morning greeting from her husband. She was distraught because Russell always greeted her good morning. He never fails until now.She wanted him to greet her first, so she wouldn't greet him good morning today, no matter what. Their chat last night ended poorly. She was still upset right now. She wants him to prove his love to her.She knew Russell was complaining about how hard their situation was, but what could she do? She is a married woman.Damn!It seemed the thing that she feared the most
