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
AUTHOR’S POV“Have a nice day, sir.”“Take care sir.”“Please drive safely sir!”Gavin just nods his head as he heads out of his manor. After what happened to them, the maids seemed to have a change of heart and became kind. Gavin didn't pay attention to the change of surroundings, he focused on his wife’s changes. Madison went 360 especially with her attitude. Since Madison, unlike before that was loud and lazy but still active and focused, changes into a quiet and unattentive. Gavin always sees her dozing off while sitting or looking blankly at her ceiling or any blank spaces. Sometimes, he would just look for her and find her at the veranda where they drank hot chocolate. He’s so worried that he has to look at her from time to time since he doesn't know what Madison is thinking at those moments.Working at home is one of the modalities that Gavin thought of doing so that he can observe and take care of his wife all the time, but he left his companies and works empty for a long tim
AUTHOR’S POVThe office went silent. Gavin sighed as he thought that Bennedix is not talking because what he said is true. That he is truly evil.Knowing Bennedix’s personality, Gavin knew that Bennedix would frankly tell him the truth, even though that it’s offensive or hurt his feelings. That’s why Bennedix’s silence only means something, he doesn't know the answer, or he’s thinking that his answer would have an impact on Gavin's state when he is already suffering enough.“What time is the meeting with Mr. Pimentel?”Gavin asked, clearly burying the topic. But Bennedix was just staring at him while his fingers placed in his chin, clearly, he’s thinking. Gavin looked at him questionably. “Gray.”“What?”“You're the color Gray.”“What the hell are you talking about?”Gavin started to feel irritated by Bennedix’s broken statement. He glared at Bennedix but the man just pointed at his face before clicking his tongue.“See? That’s why people think you’re evil even if you’re not really
MADISON’S POVLooking at the saucer that was placed at the table, I couldn’t help but to remember a horrific scene. Maybe it’s because the last thing I saw was the saucer that contained the medicine that made me unconscious before. And the next thing that happened was a nightmare.“My lady? Is there something you need?”My thoughts snapped back to my head as I heard Sylv’s worried, small voice. I looked at her and shook my head as I looked back at the view outside. I’m currently resting inside my room. I just had lunch and now Sylv has been asking me if I want to eat some snacks or sweets.Just like my room in Jordan’s house, my room here could also see the main garden of the manor. Obviously, it is much bigger than Jordan’s garden, but it gives a royal vibe unlike at Jordan’s that was small but looks enchanting. If someone asks what garden I liked the most… of course it’s my garden.“Would you like to have tea, my lady?”Looking at Sylv, she became more attentive towards me and aske
