CHAPTER 112

Nelly

When one has access to the richest secrets, they are exposed to their weakness. For years, I have lived off the wealth and protection of poor Diego and his wicked uncle. At times, I regret not forcing him to take all of the necessary steps to ensure my permanent place in his life; instead, I am hanging like a tormented creature. I have given Max Cruz enough time to locate Diego and send me to him because I am all he needs to see. I grabbed my phone and was about to call Max when George entered.

"Hello George, I hope you have brought some good news," I said, pretending to smile at him for the first time.

“Uhmm, not Ms. Mendoza I just came to inform you that Mr. Myers is uncomfortable with you staying in his home, so it would be—”

"Uh, George, calm down. I know you are just carrying out the orders you were given, which is very nice of you, but believe me when I say Diego will change his mind once he sees me, so how about you join me for coffee?" I said but he turned m

    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

Without hesitation, I opened the door, but owing to the darkness, nothing was visible.I turned on the lights and saw my best friend Neina with Nora and Charlotte all beaming and saying "Surprise!" to me."Did you do this? I questioned them not showing feeling upset that it was not Diego."Yes, my love, we did this to surprise you," Charlotte said as they all embraced me in a hug I wished Diego had given her. After expressing my gratitude to everyone,Me and my companions departed for breakfast, while Nora my maind started to tackle household tasks."Where is Diego, Serene? There is no way that I have seen him.” Charlotte asked... "Yes, Serene; where is Diego? He is meant

    CHAPTER 3Serene "What? What is this!" I yelled, my voice quivering with rage and agony at the sight of Diego and Nelly. When he turned around, he realized he had forgotten to lock the door "I can explain... ""Explain? How would you explain this?"I entered the room, my face filled with grief and betrayal. My gaze shifts to Nelly, who is gazing down and avoiding eye contact. "Serene, let us discuss this at home." Diego reached out to me, saying, "It is not what you think." "Not what I think? I believe I just walked in on my husband in bed with another woman, So, what might it be?" I questioned, taking steps backward.My eyes welled with tears, but I refused to let them fall. I stormed out of the room, turning on my heel. Disappointment enveloped me, and the prospect of blind trust being broken shattered my heart."Serene, please wait!" Diego cried behind me. He tries to get out of the bed, but Nelly clutches his arm."Let her go.Let her go!""What have I done?" Diego moaned. [Hom

    CHAPTER 4Diego "You are already back, sweetie," Nelly said, giving me a sour, displeased expression."Yes, I cannot wait any longer to make you mine; the previous 5 years without you, Nelly, have been agony; please do not ever leave me again," I begged, kneeling with my hands on her lap. "I am not going anywhere, but how about Serene?" She queried me with worry. "I have already taken care of that; she will be out of our lives for good," I said, going in for a kiss.I am not bothered about Serene; the return of Nelly made me glad. I do not want to put off the divorce procedures any longer, so I asked my lawyer to create the paperwork.Serene lost her kid while she was in the depths of despair, and she will soon lose me.

I asked myself , "How could Diego have done this?” We spent about three hours in his attorney's office, and it could not have been him.I turned to our maid Nora and said, "Who entered our room after I had left?""No one did.""What? How is that possible? My closet was emptied."I emptied them for you," Nora replied. “What?”"Oh please quit the act, Serene, you should be grateful I did you a favor imagine how long it would have taken you to get all your stuff together, I do not want Nelly to come here and find you wandering around this house, I have moved all your belongings to the living room, I don't even know what you are doing here," Nora, the maid, reacted. "What! Do you know Nelly?"You must have grown too comfortable being soothed by me; that chapter is over now; my best friend will be controlling this home from now on, and you need to get your ass out of here," Nora said,

"What does this mean?" she said as we settled into the coach. "It is all over for me; Diego has engaged another woman," I said. Neina was bewildered, so I explained everything that had happened. Neina was enraged, but she had to save it for when she ran into Diego; he did not just injure her buddy."Serene I am deeply sorry, but you are now secure with me, and if he ever comes seeking for you, I will break every bone in his body.Neina swore. "I will be going shortly," I told her. "What, no, you are in no condition to go already.""I have been approved for the position we applied for while Diego was in distress.""Marketing director for KATARAYO AGENCY?"Neina asked "Yes, they did phone me a few hours ago.""What!"Neina leaped with delight and embraced me.

    CHAPTER 7Serene I have not heard from Diego in two weeks. I have been doing everything I can to recover, and now it is time for me to go to a faraway land, away from Diego and all the suffering he has caused me. It is now time to start afresh, this time without making any compromises for anyone. Charlotte and Neina are welcome to visit me in London at any moment. I can not understand why they are so unhappy. Charlotte and Neina placed my things in the boot and moved towards me; we hugged before jumping into the car and driving to the airport."Do not forget to inform us when you land," Neina said lovingly.“I won't promise,” I responded with a smile at them."If you forget, we will catch the next flight there," Charlotte said, and we all laughed.The vehicle came to a stop, and we hopped out. I grabbed my luggage and we headed inside the airport, and I started to feel sad and melancholy. I paused and glanced at both of them; Charlotte saw and hurriedly muttered, "Serene, calm down."

    CHAPTER 8 Serene My skirt feels so snug on my body, and I have not worn something so classy in a long time. Throughout my marriage, I always wore clothing that never revealed too much of my body—except for instances where I needed to appear gorgeous. It is my first day at work, and I have donned make-up from Rare Beauty. Selena Gomez's cosmetics are an excellent fit for my skin. I put on lipstick and curled my hair. I had no option but to wear heels; I only hoped I wouldn't walk and fall because I have not worn heels in a long time; else, I will spend time in my slippers. I hurriedly grabbed my purse and dashed out as the driver came. "Good morning, Ms. Brights. I hope you are looking forward to your first day of work," The driver said to me. "Sure, I can not wait either," I said, turning my attention to my phone. Charlotte and Neina continued sending me texts asking if I had arrived at work; I responded and then began gazing at the architecture and charming spots we drove past.

He—”"Whatever we have is a deep scar that cannot be healed, one that will linger for decades. That child you claim to be looking for receives the highest level of security possible.

    CHAPTER 110Diego I am not sure why I found Sonia's behavior strange, but she was not up to anything. I walked into the living room and saw Grace serving our meal. "Hey, have you looked for me?" I asked."No, I was just checking in on you," she responded.“I see, any updates?” I questioned."No, but I was told someone would be joining us for dinner.”“Who?”“Sandra.”“You mean the woman at Serene's party?” I asked."Yes, your uncle seems to be very calm around her.”"That is strange; maybe there is something we do not know.”"Exactly. I believe we should keep an eye on those two.”“Ok, I'll be outside.”I walked out and called George while waiting for Sandra to arrive. I knew we did not have a close relationship, but maybe I could use her help to bring down my uncle. "Hello, handsome," a voice said from behind.“Hello, what a surprise,” I replied.“Oh it's nothing, how are you?” she asked.“I'm well, how about you?”“Same here, I hope your uncle is inside.”“Yes, he is, please enjoy

    CHAPTER 109DIEGO What should a man do when every move he makes fails him? I have been here for weeks, days, and nights, trying to prove my love to Serene, but—she ignored it. I had to belittle myself repeatedly to win her over; she may have become wealthy, but I—I am still the king of New York. She, of all people, should be aware that I am capable of taking that child if necessary. Perhaps I have been too nice and understanding. I sincerely apologized, but I only received mean and hurtful responses. I have no idea what happened to the Serene I knew, the one who would freak out if I did not talk to her for a day.Just the other day, I was thrown out of her house like a dog; I bet those guards have no idea who they messed with. Since the good way did not work well, I might as well consider other ways if Serene does not want to be in my life, I will do what I believe is best for my son. I was about to call George when I accidentally answered a call from the detective I had sent to Sere

    CHAPTER 108SERENE What am I supposed to say? Everyone has the right to live their lives as they see fit, especially once they reach adulthood. To be honest, when Charlotte said Diego was having a serious relationship with that actress, I felt like I was on fire inside. I am not sure if this is because I still love him, or because I am jealous. I know I shouldn't, but I still remember what I went through with his wicked love. Maybe all he needs is a perfect, sweet, and painful revenge, one that will put him in a better position to return to London with his sweetheart."Get the car ready," I told the driver before leaving to get my coat upstairs.“Mommy, where are you going?” Miguel asked."Hey sweetie, I am quickly leaving for something. Is everything all right?” I asked while lowering my body."Yes, I expected you to take me to see Daddy. I miss him so much," he said, and I could tell he was missing his father.“OK, I'll see what I —”“Good evening,” a familiar voice cut me off."De

    CHAPTER 107Serene My heart is racing and my breath is about to leave me. What games is Diego trying to play with me? Taking advantage of me wasn't enough—though the footage shows me approaching him first, clearly due to the drug he put in my drink. The car came to a stop, and as usual, the guard opened the door for me. I jumped out and was about to walk into the house when I was blocked by someone I did not expect to see: Max Cruz. "I apologize for coming uninvited, Ms. Brights, but I thought it would be fair to have a word. "Oh?" I responded."Yes, Serene you should listen to Mr. Cruz; I believe he has a lot to tell you," Charlotte said."Did you become his new PA, sweetheart?" I asked her."No, I am just someone who knows what happened," she said confidently."Okay, Mr. Cruz, you may come in," I said as I walked in.I gave the maid my bag to take upstairs while I went to the office with Cruz. Just as I was about to walk in, I felt a warm hug wrap around my legs. "Mommy," Miguel s

What a shame some people don't mend their ways," she said.“Charlotte, please, you got it wrong.”"Please excuse me and get used to limiting certain behaviors indoors. Pollution in the corridors is disgusting, especially when you have a reputation," she said with a smile before walking away."Who the hell is that? And why do you not want me to respond to them?" Sonia inquired."Sonia, I believe we should break the contract; I cannot help you overstepping your boundaries. What goes on in my personal life is not your concern, okay.”“OK, fine, I'm sorry. I will get going now; good luck," she said, walking away.What was I supposed to do? To run after her? No way, I have made it clear that our relationship is strictly professional, and nothing will come of it. I did not pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for her to try to entice me i

    CHAPTER 105Diego I have not seen Serene or my uncle in days, and I don't know what he is up to right now. I am tired of hiding the truth; I need to stand up and confront him before he comes for my wife and child, I mean ex-wife, but it still feels like I never divorced her. Damn! I entered the kitchen and found Grace washing the cups. "Hey, are you feeling better now?" she inquired after I spent the entire day in bed.“Yes, I'm OK now, have you seen my uncle?” I questioned."No, but I overheard him talking on the phone with someone.”“What did they say?” I questioned."I do not know, but it has nothing to do with her or my grandson," Grace reassured me.“Thank goodness, I think it's time to —”"Unless you carefully plan everything, it will not be; I can not watch you risk them," she interrupted."I do not want to; I wish I could tell her I was not involved in anything related to her drugging, but she will not believe me.”"I know the man who spiked her drink was found dead in a nigh

    CHAPTER 104NellyI can't stand watching all of my efforts fail, so maybe I should try something out of the ordinary, something that will bring me closer to knowing exactly where Diego is so I can go find him; there is no way I have been living in this mansion for over two months without him coming for me; he would get on the next flight from Colombia just to get me, so what the hell has changed? Okay, this does not even sound like me, but is absence supposed to make the heart grow fonder? Damn, maybe these writers are just playing with our heads, but one thing is certain: I am Diego Myers' weakness. I know I still have power over his heart, but that Serene bitch is probably a beggar or even dead. I returned to the house and found George waiting for me in the living room. "Ms. Mendoza, good evening. I have a message for—”"Can you tell me when Diego will arrive?" I asked with a smile."It is not that; I believe you have to—”"I know how to change the house or throw him a welcome part
