CHAPTER 48

Serene

I will be going to Mr. Cruz's residence for the first time. I have gotten to know him over the years, and he is a great guy, but I do not think it is the right time for him to be a large part of my life. I know he likes me, and everything would be perfect, but I just need more time. I entered the kitchen and found Rina with a dish of fruits. "Is Cruz gone?" she questioned, peering behind me.

"Yes, would you like to accompany him?" I asked jokingly.

"No, I am already hooked on someone; I do not think I like Cruz anymore, but you appear to be concealing something."

"Okay, let me know when you figure it out," I responded, opening the refrigerator to grab some juice.

"Do you feel something for Mr. Cruz? I mean, if that is the case, you guys could already go serious and provide Miguel with a stable family," she remarked, and I turned to give her a serious look.

“What did you just say?” I asked her.

    CHAPTER 49Serene My pulse was racing when I was told they had left for a walk; I quickly phoned Mia's and the call was answered on the first ring. I instructed her to get Miguel home within the next 20 minutes, and they found me in the living room. “Mia, I do not want this to happen again. Therefore, I have warned you not to take him out, especially without guards.”"I am sorry, my lady. He did not want to disturb your sleep, that's why we did not notify you.""Whatever the circumstances may be, do not take him out of this home again," I cautioned.“Mommy I'm —”"I do not want your apologies, sweetheart; you went against Mommy's orders," I replied, trying to look away but swiftly turning to take him up and kiss him. "Are you crazy? You know mommy would never reject her baby's apologies," I responded, teasing him."Madam, your clothing has come," Mia stated as she received the puzzle. "Just leave it on the couch, honey, and I will carry it with me on my way upstairs. What do you wa

    CHAPTER 50Serene Diego was so near that if it had not been for the guards, He might have discovered me today. As soon as the guards stopped him, I stepped inside the car and covered Miguel from seeing who the guards were stopping; otherwise, he would have known him right away. When we returned home, I asked Mia to assist him organize the toys while I prepared to meet the business Mogul. I entered my room and stared at myself in the mirror, telling myself that nothing awful would happen. I headed to take a refreshing shower before asking Mia to come and assist me fix my hair. Miguel was occupied playing with toys. When Mia finished, she took him downstairs, and I quickly dressed and applied my makeup.Rina entered through the open door of my room. "Madam, are you certain you want to attend this meeting with—?""Why are you nervous? I am ready. It is not like I will be there for long; we are only going to meet the Mogul."Madam, do you understand what I am saying about the Mogul—?""N

    CHAPTER 51Serene When the car came to a halt before my door, I hurried out and dashed into my bedroom, followed by Rina, who was clutching my purse. "Madam, you—you refused the diamond ring?" she asked again, looking shocked."How did you know that he was going to propose?" I questioned her as I suspected the way she went out.“Well, I helped him pick the ring for you.”“What!”"Do not take it the wrong way; I simply wanted to assist and make the surprise for you, but you turned down the diamond ring.""So, what did you ask me if that's what I wanted?" I questioned."No, Madam, please calm down; it was only a surprise I—“Get out of my room.”She went away, leaving my purse on the couch. I hurriedly closed the door and lowered my body as I began to weep. What the hell just happened? I never want to see a ring from a man again in my life. I could vividly recall Diego kneeling after divorcing me to propose to Nelly. I absolutely could not accept Cruz's proposal. I am not in a position

    CHAPTER 52Serene's I was fortunate in the café that I had enough time to hurry home before Mr. Simon informed Diego of my presence. I left Rina to handle everything while I arrived to prepare for Miguel's and my supper with Cruz. I knew I did not have to worry about meeting Diego; I am now a boss, so I can meet anybody I want and avoid those I don't. I asked Mia to help me prepare the salad while I was preparing the meat. "Mommy, it smells delicious. Can I taste it?" Miguel asked."Oh no baby, this meat is not done yet; it will cause you to have diarrhea. Maybe I will give you some ice cream instead," I suggested, snatching his ice cream."Here, please go play in the living room, and I will join you shortly, OK," I said as he went out, nodding.I returned to what I was doing when I suddenly recalled something. "Mia," I murmured, staring at her."Thank you for always being there for Miguel; I do not know what I would have done without a kind and loving nanny like you.""Oh, madam, yo

    CHAPTER 53Diego What the heck is wrong with me? How is it possible that I am smelling Serene's perfume around the house? When I returned from my disappointment at not meeting Rina's boss, I went straight to the living room and asked Grace to make me some coffee; London was becoming unbearable for me; I am Diego Myers, the only man who takes no nonsense from anyone, and here I am waiting for about 3 weeks to speak with some woman who is attempting to be overly bossy. In retrospect, I believe Rina's boss is attempting to play hard to get. "Diego, what is the problem, my son?" Grace inquired, undoubtedly sensing how concerned I was."Nothing, really; I am just attempting to sign a business contract with a woman who refuses to see me," I replied, taking the coffee from her palm."Who exactly is unwilling to agree with you in London?" She asked."I have been trying to visit the individual for three weeks, but something always seems to come up, and I am becoming frustrated; it is like the

    CHAPTER 54Diego My heart was not beating at all. I was just waiting for Serene to come out of the restroom. I could not stop myself from looking at the path that went to the restroom. I even completely forgot I was next to my uncle. I have never seen Serene look so attractive, not even throughout our marriage, save when she went to visit the firm, but what my eyes just saw was way beyond what I had imagined. "I feel you are staring in the wrong way," my uncle said in a cautionary tone. "Umm, what is wrong with that?" I questioned him." You cannot be gazing at my—"He halted and rose, glancing in the direction of the restroom. I instantly looked there and saw Serene approaching us, so I got up, taken aback by her beauty. Except for her smell, I could tell she had changed significantly. The situation wasn't the same. "I am sorry for that, but I needed to take a call," she said and looked at me before taking a seat."It is OK, my darling, you do not have to apologize; we did not mind

    CHAPTER 55Serene Everything I thought I could handle almost destroyed me today. What could be worse than discovering that my ex-husband's uncle has been into me all along? The only difference is that he treats me with all the affection his nephew couldn't. I know this sounds weird, but it is not meant to be my problem right now. Diego and Cruz may come up at my place at any time, which is something I must avoid at all costs. When I got to the hotel, I expected to meet someone else with Cruz. Since I was still texting Neina. I did not even look up to see who I was greeting until I noticed the person was causing a delay in our handshake, at which point I looked up and realized it was Diego.I was so surprised it was him; I at first thought he was using Cruz to get to me, but when Cruz referred to him as his nephew, I nearly prayed for the Earth to swallow me. I hurriedly made my way to the restroom and considered what I should do. Escaping made no sense, so I walked to my seat after

    CHAPTER 56Serene My eyes rolled wide, unable to believe what they were witnessing. Diego, I typically order the guards to stand at the door, so I did not expect to find him inside my office. “Diego!” I said again, staring at Rina, who needed to explain how he came inside.“I was going to tell you but —”"It is fine, I believe you did me a big favor; I will explain that to her," he interrupted her, and she looked at me before walking away. What the heck? I thought she worked for me. I walked to the opposite side of the desk and took the initiative to speak first. “Diego I am not sure what you are doing here, but you out of all people should understand how business works; make an appointment and I will see you when I am available," I said, taking my seat confidently.“Yes that's right, but we both know you won't Serene.”"This is Ms. Brights, and I believe you understand how things work in business.

    CHAPTER 94DiegoThe party has ended, and everyone has gone to sleep. I was standing on the opposite side of the bed as Serene read Miguel a bedtime story. What could be better than watching the two people who bring you complete joy? I know that does not sound like me, but the time I have spent with Serene has made me realize how much more I could have had if I had allowed her to experience my love. I was still thinking when she cleared her throat and told me to leave Miguel's bedroom."Maybe we should talk, Serene," I suggested as she closed the door."Do not forget, Mr. Myers, that you are only here because Miguel needs you. If that was not the case, I believe you know where you would be right now," Serene said, attempting to walk away, but I caught her arm."You might not want to do that, sir," one of her guards told me, patting me.“OK, fine. I'm sorry, Serene. I need you to give me a chance to discuss things.”"Please show Mr. Myers out; I am sure it is exhaustion causing all tha

    CHAPTER 93Serene The doctor finally discharged Miguel and we took him home in a wheelchair. Just as we got home, the entire living room was dark, and I wondered if there was a power outage or something. “Mommy, what happened to the lights?” Miguel asked, looking confused.“I don't know, sweetie, let me quickly find out,” I replied, attempting to switch on my phone's torch when the lights went on, and I realized all Miguel's friends had come to welcome him. “Surprise!” everyone exclaimed and I couldn't help but clap along.“Hi, Ms. Brights,” the little children greeted me.“Hello, how are you, little angels?” I asked.“We're fine thanks,” they responded.Miguel stood up from his chair and began walking towards his friends, who all hugged him and led him to the couch while I poured them drinks. "Look at my little prince; he is so cute," Charlotte said to Miguel, softly pulling his cheeks.“Why is she so mean?” Diego asked as he assisted me in rinsing the glasses."I am not sure; maybe

    CHAPTER 92Serene My heart is not in the right place, and I am scared. I know Diego is furious that I did not inform him about his son's condition. It is not that I did not want to, but my desire for vengeance overcame me and nearly cost me the only person who completed my world. 'Get well soon, sweetheart,' I said in my head while standing beside Miguel's bed."Why are you sad, Mommy?" Miguel inquired, noting how pale I appeared.“Sad, no sweetie I am just bored, so now that you are awake, how about you tell me a little story?" I replied quickly, changing my expression."Okay, but is Daddy coming to listen as well?" he asked."Umm, no, Daddy is out and maybe a little late," I lied."OK, lay here," he said, and I placed my head next to him.I was looking in a different direction as he told me one of the cute stories I had read him. My tears were just flowing because I could not hold them back. My son's voice softened, and I looked up in fear, only to discover that he had fallen aslee

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

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.

"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.

"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 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.
