AUTHOR’S POVWhile Maddie and Massie, the children of the Wilhenbergs, are facing their own emotional battles, their parents also have something on their own.Mariano and Miranda are sitting in the dinning as they weakly eat their dinner. They look like a pair of elegant old people that’s trying to finish the tasteless food that was prepared for them.“Did you cook that well? We might get scolded if not!”“I did! I don’t know why I was even assigned to cook when all I can only do is clean!”“That’s true. Can’t they just hire a new chef?”“I heard that they can’t afford to hire a new one.”“Is that true?”“Yea-”“WHY THE HELL IS THIS SO BLAND?!”The maids jumped in their stations when they suddenly heard their mistress’s shout.“What did you do?!”“Oh no…”“Oh no what?!”“I forgot to add some salt..”“Oh my gosh! You’re so stupid!”They rushly hid in their room as the other maids ran far away from the dining room. Miranda, on the other hand, slapped the maid beside her and asked for ne

MADISON’S POVIt would be odd if he’s not related to Gavin at some point, they looked so much alike. They looked relative or something. I don’t know since he didn’t tell me anything about his relatives.Thinking about the possibilities, I suddenly feel like I have something to remember… Did I… forget something important? It feels like it’s in the back of my head and I’m trying to shake my brain, to squeeze it out.I tried remembering everything that Gavin has said. I feel like there’s something that I should remember but I can’t remember anything at all. Aside from some blurry things that I can’t understand, I don’t remember anything else…Who is this man? What is he doing in my garden? Who let him enter? What’s his relationship with Gavin? Damn… what if Gavin said something about a guest that’s staying here? Or an important person visiting? A business partner? Damn.. I didn’t listen… What if this really is one of his relatives? But even if Gavin has any relatives… he probably does
MADISON’S POVThe peaceful garden has now become chaotic. Maids and servants are watching the scene. The head maid and butler that was supposed to stop them are rushing towards me.“My lady, would you like to come inside? I don’t think-”“It’s fine.”I slowly stepped away from them and sat on the bench with Chowie following my every movement. I looked up and saw how Gavin glared at the man, while the man just stood there.They are really related. I can feel it. Looking at the man’s expression and eyes, he shows great affection and longing. I have a guess about who this man might be. It’s just a wild guess but I think I’m right.“I told you not to bother her. Not to approach her. And not to touch her!”“I didn’t touch her, son-”“Don’t you fucking call me that!”“Alright, Calm down. I didn’t do anything wrong, Gavin. You’re overreacting.”“Overreacting? Overreacting! This is not overreacting.”“Then what? We just had a small conversation and you’re being like this!”“Who the hell woul
MADISON'S POVEntering my room, I couldn't help but to notice how things inside of it didn't change. Everything is the same as the day that I arrived here since I don't want to change it.After awhile, I jump to my bed, just like how I threw myself in it even before I became attracted to that weird person Laying in the familiar bed in a familiar bedroom as I stare at the familiar ceiling, I can't help but to feel nostalgic with everything.I've been staying here for a few days but I only thought about how this room never changes. The things that I fixed and placed are still there. My clothes and accessories are still the same. There’s nothing missing…Even the things that I received are still where I put them before I leave.Everything is in place just like how it used to but it’s not dirty or dusty… It’s clean as always.The maids didn’t even change the color of my mattresses and covers. I don’t know who ordered it but I’;m thankful that they didn’t disrespect me by doing that. The
MADISON'S POV"My lady!""Hello, my lady!""Be careful!""My lady! Please don't run!" It was the maids that I passed while running through the hallways. Gavin left this morning saying that he'll take home our child. And he's now here! Sylv, my personal maid before, called me excitedly, saying that Gavin is already here while I'm laying at my bed motionless while waiting for him.I dashed out of my room as soon as I heard that Gavin is already here. My child...I ignored the tears that's forming in my eyes as I ran down the stairs. To be honest, my stitches are still not yet healed...They might bleed later but who cares? What's important is that my child is finally here. I hurriedly ran down the stairs while slightly jumping while walking. I ignored every person I encountered. Nervous? Maybe. Having mixed feelings? Definitely.Today is the day… I wanna cry, I wanna hug him, I wanna see his face… But of course… he’s…already ashes.Earlier when I was thinking about my baby’s appe
AUTHOR’S POV“Madam..”A man, wearing formal attire, entered a dark room where there’s no light except for the sunset that can be seen in the only open window. He’s bowed before looking at the silhouette of a woman that’s standing by the window. ‘She’s always like this…’He thought. The silhouette moved but the man just kept staring at it. The building that they are at is the tallest building amongst its neighboring companies. The office was also placed near the market… The man can’t even see what’s happening outside due to the height of their office.“What is it?” The silhouette is a sight. The man flinched as he hurriedly came over to the table and carefully placed the file that he brought. He didn’t sit down nor relax in front of that person. “We are currently dragging the Wilhenberg down. Sooner or later, our operation will be successful.” The silhouette took the file that he brought and looked into it. “Hm.. So it’s just a matter of time until we hear a report about their do
AUTHOR’S POVThe room went silent after Madison shouted. The maids that were about to enter turn back and leave the couple. The head maid was shocked at Madison’s outburst and rushed towards her worriedly.“My dear, are you okay?”The head maid asked but Madison was shocked too. She stared at Gavin, who looked shocked the most. His eyes widened, his smiling worried face turned stone before his lips started twitching and looked away, feeling embarrassed. It’s the first time someone shouted at him in front of some people. For a person that has a high status and grew up with a powerful household, Gavin feels odd that someone just shouted at him.“I-I’m sorry.”Madison said as she walked away. The head maid watches her walk away before looking at Gavin. She shook her head and head out of the room.‘Those two need to talk.’She thought as she signed the maid and servants to go outside. Leaving the two of them, Madison reached for the urn and hugged it. ‘Baby… Mommy is so stupid.’Madi
