Third POV***"Audrey, mom is home," Abigail called out, it was the weekend and he wasn't having any class today.She had expected to see him in the living room but he wasn't there, which came as a little shock.But this was a mansion and he could be anywhere.Suddenly, a thought occurred to Abigail. What if Audrey was playing with Snow, her beloved bunny?Abigail ascended the stairs, her feet feeling heavier with each step. She was exhausted, and her body seemed to lack the energy to move any faster. She leaned against the wall for support, taking a moment to catch her breath. Fortunately, Audrey's room wasn't far from where Abigail was standing. Taking a deep breath, she walked towards the hall and finally arrived at the door. She knocked gently, waiting for a response.Minutes passed and he didn't respond which was unlike him, she knocked louder this time and she was starting to get worried.There was no maid In sight except for Adonis who seemed to have been following her around.
Third POV***"You" Henry slammed his fist into the wall, fury flowing through his body. His blood boiled and his teeth ground together as he fought to keep his rage under control. "I'm sorry, boss," Adonis stammered. "I tried my hardest to get her to stop, but she wouldn't listen."Henry let out a contemptuous laugh. "Your best wasn't even good enough."He just didn't want Abigail to worry, and he was sure he could handle the situation on his own. But he was furious with Adonis for telling her.From the corners of his eyes, he saw Abigail approach him with teary eyes, it was obvious that she had been crying.That was something he never wanted to see as it made his heart ache."Where. is. he?" She asked, her voice breaking as she spoke.Her eyes wandered around the empty corridor and she gave up in the end.Henry was the only one who could tell her what had happened to her son.He drew her in close, and she rested her head against his chest, her body trembling. Henry held her tightly
Third POV***"I changed my mind babe, I will go get some coffee. Please watch over him while I'm gone, I don't want any harm to happy to our son while I'm away." Abigail said, her words heavy as she refused to look away from the glass windows.She knew that staying there wouldn't be of help and besides, maybe if she had some coffee then she would be able to keep herself awake and her mind active.Henry came up behind her, resting his hands lightly on her hips as he whispered, "You know, I could go get you a cup of coffee..""No never mind, I will go get it myself."Henry nodded thoughtfully. It would be best if she stayed away from the ICU for a little while. He gave her hand a light squeeze, hoping to comfort her.Maybe it would help take her mind off things."Alright love, get one for me too, I love you," Henry said, he kissed the back of her palm before watching her leave.Exhaling a heavy breath, he went back to take a seat, before dialing an unknown number on his phone.Meanwhil
Third POV***"Thanks dear" Henry said quietly, he turned back to look at Ethan and the other lady who he wasn't interested in meeting."You shameless slut! Are you sleeping with my cousin now? you really want to ruin our family don't you. You are my ex-girlfriend Abigail!" Ethan pointed an accusing finger at Abigail, he didn't even bother to compose himself.The thought of Abigail and Henry together as a couple filled him with anger, and the more he considered it, the angrier he became.His words grated on her, and she snapped back in a voice that dripped with bitterness. 'I never want to see your face again, and don't you dare presume that you have any hold over me! Just the thought of your possessiveness makes me sick.' Her eyes flashed as she spoke.The idea of Ethan and Henry being related had never crossed her mind. They were so different, it was almost impossible to imagine them sharing the same blood. The very thought was utterly unexpected.In the past, Ethan had always been
Third POV***"All this, everything you told me was all a lie, I can definitely see that now." Lana said with gritted teeth,her voice rising as she spoke.Ethan had enough of it, he couldn't help but snap at her. "Just stop it Lana! Stop with your drama, I have had enough already, I don't... " His voice trailed off as his gaze fell on Abigail and Henry.They were brave enough to kiss and act all lovey Dovey in his presence, he didn't know why he was feeling this way, he shouldn't be bothered if Abigail moved on.But there was this heart wrenching pain in his chest, the pain in his chest was not a physical pain - it was something deeper, more visceral. It felt as if his heart had been cleaved in two, and the emptiness left behind was filled with a strange, twisted feeling that he couldn't name. Ethan's eyes were glued to the scene before him, even though every fiber of his being screamed at him to look away. He wanted to run, to hide, to escape the agony of seeing Abigail, his former
Third POV***In the car, Ethan sat as far from Lana as possible, a gulf of space between them. The silence was deafening, broken only by the sound of the engine and the swish of the tires against the pavement. He sat staring out the window, cigarette dangling from his fingers. The smoke from the cigarette curled upward, wisping into the air. He took a long drag, his eyes fixed on the passing scenery. Should he be called a coward for wanting Abigail back? Lana suddenly looked like dirt to him, unfortunately, he couldn't discard her even if he wanted to.He heard her sniff in her seat, who could blame her?After treating her like filth in the hospital, he hadn't realized that he still loved Abigail. Earlier, he found it hard to control his emotions.'I'm not a weak man. If getting her back will make me happy then I will. It is time for war dear cousin' Ethan said in his mind, a smile creeping up the corners of his lip.The realization hit him like a punch to the gut. No matter what h
Third POV***"Give me a kiss, c'mon, the baby wants to give daddy a kiss."Lana chuckled as she tried to kiss Ethan, he was way taller than her so she had to be on her tippy toes."Baby's gonna get mad at his father for ignoring his request" The corners of her lips turned down and she stopped trying so hard to kiss him.She could tell by the stubborn set of his jaw and the hard glint in his eye that her apology hadn't done much to appease him. Ever since they returned from their outing, he had been cold and aloof, barely even acknowledging her when she spoke. His only response was a curt nod as if he couldn't be bothered to engage in conversation. It was a bit upsetting for her but she had no choice but to try to get him to be the way he was when they had first met.She believed all he said, he wanted to take revenge on them both and that was the only thing he explained to her before wearing a cold chilly mask.Now, she felt bad and apologizing won't do a thing because she had been
Henry's POV***It was early in the morning and there was some work to get done on my computer.Tapping my fingers away as I typed out a message, my eyes scanned through the words and I read them in my mind just to make sure that there were no errors.With a sigh of relief, I clicked the "Send" button and sat back in my chair, feeling the tension drain from my shoulders. Zayn had been right - I'd been pushing myself too hard lately. Perhaps it was time to take a break, even if only for a little while. A vacation sounds kinda cool though, Maybe a night in Vegas would be okay? I will go there with my cupcake soon.' I thought to myself, my hand caressing my chin.In her absence, I ached for her presence. The soft brush of her skin against mine, the light fragrance of her favorite perfume, these were the things that kept me tethered to reality. So much so that I carried a piece of her with me, a scarf she loved, to keep her essence close. On my desk, a small, crinkled scarf lay discarde
