MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 79
(Serena's POV)Watching the people having fun outside the restaurant makes me jealous. I want to have fun too but how? We're here at the Barclay Prime restaurant, together with Frieda and Suzy. I don't know why I was dragged here too, to the fact Frieda treated me like an invisible human being.As if I care.Didn't Suzy know that she has a thing with Marcus? I focus on eating my meal while they still nonstop chatting, which I think catching up on things, not dragging me to the topic. I don't want to join in their conversation too. They sounded so classy which makes me like a commoner.After devouring my meal, I excuse myself for a comfort room.I just wash my hands in the expensive-looking sink. Not long after, someone strides inside and stops beside me.I took a glance at the mirror but was surprised that it was Frieda. She's wearing a backless red glittery dress which shines her more. It's broad daylight but her outfit of the day is for clubbing. Now that Lauren is out of the pict
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 80
(Serena's POV)"You're... You're pregnant?"Marcus's muffled voice didn't seem to reach my ears. But I was too shocked to pay attention. My hands were trembling, my legs were about to give in and the cold gaze Marcus has given to me was making my heart hurt as if a thousand thorns were pricking my skin and making way to my broken soul."I... I..."I can't find words to explain everything to Marcus.I don't know how to respond to this situation. I'm shocked and scared at the same time. Marcus already knows my illness and now... I'm pregnant?My doctor clearly told me I shouldn't be until I get surgery.It's all my fault!It's all my Goddamn fault!"Serena, look at me."I felt two warm hands clasping my shoulders. Not again, I have no energy to fight anyone. He gently dragged me to the bed as my legs gave up and I fell to the ground. I could feel movement next to me and the next thing I know was hot breaths torturing the cold nape of my neck."Love... Is it safe for the baby? What about
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 81
(Serena's POV)A light breeze whispered through the trees as we passed through each one of them. Staring blankly at the window, heading back to the airport, after we had a consultation with Dr. Rivera here in Los Angeles.This should be the best time to visit my friend, Lily, after months of not seeing each other. However, my situation didn't give me the privilege to enjoy my time here.Yes, I'm pregnant but this is a huge life risk for my unborn child.According to my doctor, the most common maternal complications of valvular heart disease during pregnancy are heart failure, arrhythmias, and thromboembolic complications. Also, cardiac symptoms can be managed with diuresis, medical therapy, and reduced level of physical activity. There is a lot of intervention to perform for the safety of my baby but these interventions should be performed after the fourth month in the second trimester to minimize radiation exposure during organogenesis. What's frightening the most is that valve sur
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 82
(Serena's POV)I woke up when my throat feels dry. The first thing I see when I open my eyes is Marcus's pretty face. His arms wrapped around my body as he was an inch apart from mine and hearing his breathing gives me comfort.I scanned the room, I guess we're at Lily's guest room. I remember we were in the living room, watching Netflix with Lily. I must have fallen asleep without knowing. I glance at the wall clock, marked four in the morning.I sigh and was about to remove Marcus's arms, carefully, but he pulled me closer to him causing my lips to land on his.Distancing my head from his, I saw how the corner of his lips raise. "If you want a morning kiss, just tell," I muttered.He stared at me for a second, full of amusement in his eyes before he dares to close the distance between our faces again."I want a morning kiss." His warm breath touches my face softly like he always used to. Sometimes, he can be gentle but he can also portray a brutal when it comes to bed.I rolled my
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 83
(Serena's POV)As I walk out of the room, Lily's Cheshire cat grin welcomed me together with her newly cooked breakfast, already placed on the table. It's the usual breakfast she prepared. Thankfully, Marcus is a billionaire who isn't making a fuss about food.Just then, I meet her eyes, scrutinizing me as if trying to interrogate me with her own eyes.I avoided her argentine eyes and strides to the bathroom. She followed me inside without closing the door."W-What?" I asked when she didn't leave her eyes on me before I wash my face with clean water."Good morning!" Lily greeted cheerfully.Sighing, I know she wants some information about us. "Morning, Lily.""Where's your husband?" She pokes fun at the word 'husband'.My brows narrowed at her question. "He is not.""You mean... not yet.""Quit it, Lily." I shoved her shoulder for me to grab the towel behind her and wipe my face. Or maybe trying to hide my face from her teasing.She suddenly pokes my side and I flinch. She knows where
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 84
(Serena's POV)I abruptly stood up from the ground as soon as our eyes meet. I can't look straight right through his raging eyes. Who would dare? I glance at Suzy, she's silent while gazing at the ground."Dad..." She whispered."Yes, it is I, you ungracious brat!!" He hardly slaps Suzy causing me to grab Suzy's arm away from him."Please, don't hurt her--"He grabs Suzy's other arm before darting his deadly gaze into me. "Back off lady! Don't interfere in my family matters! You outsider!!"He raises his hand, maybe to slap me. Adrenaline rush through me as I covered my face with my arm, but instead to meet Uncle Gregor's callous palm, I feel someone stand in front of me, blocking the sunlight that kisses my bare face.And I'm not mistaken. It's Marcus."Don't you dare lay your fingers on her." He warned. His voice is calm but I can feel the tense in every word in that statement. Not long after, he turned to me, cupping my face while his other hand caressed my stomach. "Are you alrig
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 85
(Serena's POV)I sipped the bubble tea in front of me as I gazed out the expansive window from the Sweetgreen shop. I'm on the second floor of the King of Prussia Mall. The ambiance was relaxed and extravagant which settles my mood in balance. Thankfully, the shop has lesser people wandering around than the usual day.Suzy called me this morning and plan to meet her here. She wants me to accompany her to the hospital. At first, I was so anxious, thinking she will really abort the baby but she just laugh at me and said she wouldn't do that. She just blurted out that because she was not in her right mind.Of course, I believe Suzy will really not do that.Marcus dropped me here ten minutes ago. He was forcing me to let Kevin watch over me. I'm not a little kid that needed a chaperone. Of course, he let me win our argument.While waiting for Suzy to arrive and enjoying my time alone, someone sits in the opposite chair.I was startled to see Uncle Gregor's profound face, darting at me wit
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 86
(Serena's POV)I'm patiently leaning on the sofa, waiting for Suzy to finish dolling on the bridal gown she chooses. We are in a boutique, together with Suzy and her mother, Aunt Alyssa, for a wedding gown fitting. Suzy dragged me here since she can't take her mother on her own. Does she think I can take her mother? It's so damn awkward and uncomfortable here.She was browsing in a pile of catalogs for the perfect wedding gown for Suzy to wear on her special day, while I was a few distances away from her, trying to avoid contact with her. The same with her, ignoring my presence and treating me like an invisible human being.I don't really want to be in a room with her, especially, when Marcus is not around. It's difficult to gain confidence when you didn't have a backup behind you. But I can't turn Suzy's pleading away because she doesn't like being with her mother either.I don't understand why their mother-and-daughter bond broke off.However, I choose to ignore her too. I'm not su
