I wondered who had tagged me as curiosity got the better of me. I went to the tag, and my heart skipped a beat as I saw the video. My husband was checking into a hotel with a woman beside him; his hands were around her waist, and even a child could tell what was happening. I paused the video and zoomed in on the woman’s back, and it was her, his ex-girlfriend, Nelly, the woman I'd been asking him to stop seeing. I couldn't control my thoughts as they went back to the rumors that he was still seeing his ex. I trusted him like he asked me but seeing this video confused my senses. Was this perhaps true? Was he cheating on me?
View MoreCHAPTER 91Diego I felt hurt; I understand Serene despises me, but hiding my son's condition from me is far too cruel. Maybe it was our past that caused everything, but I have changed so much that I am glad I saved his life. “Daddy, why are you sad?” Miguel inquired as he opened his eyes."No, I am not champ; my eyes are in a little bit of pain," I said. “How are you feeling sweetheart?” Serene asked Miguel, but he ignored her and turned to my side of the bed."Daddy, will I go watch wrestling live when I am better?" he asked me."We will hear from your mom first, you can see she was worried, huh," I replied, looking at Serene, who was staring at the floor."No, we do not have to go with Mommy because she lied and broke a promise," Miguel explained.“Sweetie I'm sorry I wish —”"Mommy, please go away," Miguel said to Serene, who began shaking her head.“Champ, calm down. Mommy didn't do anything,” I said, trying to calm him down."Mommy, you promised to return on time but didn't,"
CHAPTER 90SERENE "Ms. Brights, there is something concerning about the blood test results," the doctor said, and my heart skipped a beat."What is wrong, doctor? Is my blood not good?" I asked with tears on the verge of falling out."Not only that, but your blood does not match that of your son," the doctor replied, and I felt as if I had not just heard what he said.“What kind of joke is that doctor, I'm Miguel's Mom,” I replied."Here you can take a look at yourself. I thought it would be easier if there was a high chance, but it shows that you are not related to him in any way," the doctor said, pausing to look at me before continuing, "except for the fact that you are probably a chimera.”“Chimera?” I questioned in disbelief.“Yes, but there's no time right now. We need to act fast. Maybe we should try his father. I am confident that he will not respond negatively," the doctor suggested.‘What should I do now? I don't even want Diego to find out,’ I told myself."Ms. Brights, ar
CHAPTER 89Serene “I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that I just —”"I was thinking maybe you are tired of carrying my father's kidney and we should give it to someone more deserving because the way you are stalking me makes me feel like I owe you something," I cut him off."Serene, I know I owe you my life, my business, and everything I will give you. Please come back to me, and I will treat you better than—”"Aside from the flowers I carried on our wedding day, do you remember a time when you bought me flowers?" I cut him off."I know I have not done that, but please give me this one chance to make things right; I love you Serene, and every breath without you is hell," Diego said."Thank you for telling me how you should have felt because I do not have any emotions right now. If you do not mind, I am in a hurry; have a good day," I said, walking away without a second thought.I stepped into the lift, and the guards followed me just as it opened. We all got into the car, and I was surpr
CHAPTER 88Serene I was so exhausted from posing for pictures that whoever informed the media about my arrival did me a disservice, as I wish people could ask instead of deciding to do things for themselves. "Ms. Brights," a familiar voice called out, and I quickly turned to face the person."Hello, Sir, it is good to see you again. How is your daughter doing?" I asked the old man, whose face I recognized.“She's doing fine madam. I was not expecting to see you, but fate made it possible," he said."Oh, you do not have to be so formal; call me Serene. How long should I continue saying that?" I asked with a smile."OK, I will try calling you that, but I still want to thank you; if it were not for you, my daughter would have—”"No, it was God, not me; believe me when I say God saved her, not me; I was simply doing my job," I responded.“Madam, everything is set,” Rina said."OK, I will be with you soon," I told her, before inviting the old man to join me for lunch in the VIP lounge. Whe
CHAPTER 87Diego "Do yourself a favor and get the hell out of here," Sofia told Sonia as she pulled me upstairs.I could tell Sonia was furious and probably shocked that I had someone else now. I walked away without resisting, leaving her hanging. As we entered my bedroom, I took my hand off Sofia's waist while she poured herself a glass of wine. "Nice acting skills, Mr. Myers," she said, giving me a subtle smile."Well, what are you doing here?" I asked Sofia because I had not called for her."Nothing came to make use of my abilities. I was a little bored," she said, walking towards me and attempting to fix my collar, but I walked away."I do not think you want to do this," I explained.“I do I wouldn't resist a thing just —”"Sofia, please keep it professional; I need to get some sleep now," I said, opening the door for her to walk out."OK, I see, goodnight," she said, placing the glass on my desk before walking away.I closed the door and stepped into the shower. I leaned against
CHAPTER 86Diego When I got home, Grace was furious that I had left the mall without saying goodbye to my son. I tried explaining what had happened, but it only made matters worse; she wanted to have dinner with her grandson, and there was nothing I could say to persuade her, so I had to plead with Serene to let me go with Miguel despite her warning to stay away. I was having trouble getting in, so I asked the guards to let her know I was outside. I was about to get back in the cab when I noticed my uncle's car. 'Damn that bastard is here,' I cursed and walked away before he noticed me."Take me home," I instructed the driver."Are you certain, Sir, that we should go?" The driver inquired, his gaze fixed on me."Start the damn car, or should I cut your pay?" I gave a response."No, sir, I will start," he replied, driving away immediately.When I walked into the house, Grace was getting ready to go out. "Where is he?" she inquired, glancing around."I did not get to take him with him,
CHAPTER 85Serene Charlotte and Neina are here, I feel so complete with them around. I was tired and felt bad about how much I wanted my son to be away from his father. I was still sitting on my bed when someone knocked on the door. "Are you there, Serene?" Neina inquired, and I quickly rose from the bed to open the door."Come on, I am here," I said with a smile as she followed me behind.“Uhmm where's Charlotte?” I asked as I realized she hadn't come up without her.“Playing with her nephew, you know how much she missed him,” Neina replied."Oh, that is so true; I doubt he will even want to sleep in his room today," I replied, as Miguel usually slept in Charlotte's room when she came over; he would even forget about me—not completely.“We should expect that anyway how are things going now that Diego has permission to enter your walls?” Neina asked, her face full of curiosity."Bad, I mean, it has been so weird. I do not know; sometimes it feels like we are about to get close, but I
CHAPTER 84Serene What could be worse than being in the same store with the person you are trying to avoid at all costs? I politely instructed Rina to send those tickets to make it appear that I was gone, but here I am in his face. If only the ground would swallow me, and my son was the first to leave after I lied about pranking his father. "Mommy, I found Daddy; will I go with him now that I have won?" he asked while I could not believe Miguel was so eager to accompany his father."Sweetie, what about some other time daddy has business to handle?" I asked, hoping Diego would agree.“But mommy —”"Yes, your Mom is correct; I will take you both when I am free, so—”"No, no, that is not true, child. Grandma is here, and if your parents are busy delaying, I will take you," Grace interrupted me as she walked towards Miguel."This is your late grandmother's best friend, so you can also refer to her as your grandma's son," I explained, and he seemed thrilled.“Grandma,” Miguel said in disb
CHAPTER 83Diego "Hey man, where are you going at this hour?" my uncle inquired, tossing his coat onto the sofa.‘What is he doing here?’ I asked myself before lying to him that I wanted to go get Sofia, but she said her grandmother was out of town and she had to take care of the house. I was still trying to figure out why Serene lied about being on a date on my way upstairs when a message from her PA came. I opened it and couldn't believe my eyes. She had booked a flight to Australia without informing me as if I could not cope without my son. I was still in disbelief, and calling her would be a waste of time because she would not answer. I attempted to confirm if there was still room on the plane, but all tickets had sold out because they were only reserved for a select group of elite passengers.The next morning, I got up a little late and went downstairs. "You took longer than usual; should we go or not?" Grace asked, referring to the shopping."We are going, but not right now; gi
CHAPTER 1 NEW YORK 2018 ~SERENE~ I stared down the window, lost in my thoughts. Why was life so unfair to me? I thought the hardest thing for a woman was to make their in-laws love them, which is why I grew up making sure they loved me, and they did, as they even made sure I married him. Yes, I was married to the love of my life, Diego. From the moment I set my eyes on him, I knew he was the one for me. I was fortunate as his family was good friends with my father, and since my father died saving him, they swore to make sure he married me. I was happy when he finally proposed. I can still remember that day, like yesterday. He was not happy. He told me he was doing it for his family, but did I care? No, because I knew I would win his heart, and no, I was not giving up. I am going to win his heart. I subconsciously stopped myself as I raised my hand almost sipping on the wine then I remembered I was not pregnant, I just lost our baby a few weeks ago so I brought the glass to my mo...
