Clara's POV"How could James do that? He's so heartless." Emma asked.She's my only friend and the first person I reached out to after leaving my uncle and aunt's house. I didn't have many friends because I had to quit college and start to work to support my uncle's and aunt's finances.Emma assisted me in locating the most affordable apartment since my savings were quite limited. Now, it's been four days since she stayed over. "Now the woman he loves has returned, James want to end our marriage." I said.Emma grasped my hand firmly. "I know you can stop loving him and get through all of this, Clara; you are truly one of the most resilient person I've ever known.""Thanks. I will start looking for a job from now on." I've realized that I can no longer rely on James. "I need to take care of myself and the baby-"I promptly shut my mouth. Nearly let it slip!"What do you mean, Clara? What's baby?"I shook my head. "Forget it. I sometimes say nonsense. Tomorrow we leave at 8, right?" I
Clara's POV"You can stay in your old room; don't worry about Mom and Dad; I'll talk to them." Lily said. I was at a loss as to how else to thank her. "Thank you so much, Lily.""No problem. Goodnight, Clara."I stepped into my old bedroom. This space was once a storehouse; this room just had a single bed and a wardrobe, we didn't have money to purchase additional furniture back then. Once I got married, it looks like my uncle and aunt decided to leave this room unoccupied.I got into the shower and slipped into my old pajamas. Then a wave of drowsiness washed over me, and I drifted off to sleep. The sun was shining brilliantly when I woke up the next morning. I quickly jumped into the shower and got dressed. I was brushing my hair when there was a knock echoed from the door. It must be Lily. "Wait a minute..."But it turned out to be David, my older cousin. I quickly stepped back. Throughout my time here, David treated me poorly, and it left me with trauma. "Look who's here. What
Clara's POV"Clara!"I struggled to stay afloat as the pool revealed itself to be as deep as a man-made lake. James swiftly remove his suit, ready to leap in, but Zoe promptly stopped him."James, what do you think you're going to do? You're going to get your clothes soaked! Just let the waiters do the job."I made my way to the edge, searching for a spot to grip and pull myself up. However, this chill numbs my body, and my dress severely limits my movement. "Just let her, James; she wouldn't have fallen if she didn't act so stupid."Shortly after, the waiters quickly came over. Someone swiftly came down to assist me in reaching the edge more quickly, the other lifted me out of the water.They provided a towel and offered me to change my clothes. That's when Zoe's hand reached out to me, but I instinctively pushed it away."Clara? What's wrong with you? I just wanted to help you. Look, you're all soaked. You need to dry off soon to avoid getting sick. Come to the bathroom; let me help
Carla's POV"Ma'am, you're stunning!" Eda gasped as I stepped out of the room. I donned my finest evening gown, a rich emerald mermaid dress. Put on light makeup and delicate silver jewelry. Ready to go to the restaurant that James had reserved. "Are you sure you don't want to wait for Mr. Morgan first?" "No Eda. He'll go straight to the restaurant from his office," "Alright, ma'am, please take care." Eda smiled, her expression slightly puzzled, yet she held back from asking me what was troubling her.She must thinking it was odd to attend my anniversary dinner by myself. But she didn't know that James planned to end our marriage; no one had any idea at that point. Will I be able to see Eda and everyone I’ve thought of as family once I leave this house? I drifted into a reverie as our car smoothly navigated through the shimmering city lights.The restaurant that James reserved was lavish, and this was the first time he had invited me there. Fortunately, I was dressed well; I hadn't
Clara's POV"Congratulations, Mrs. Morgan! You're pregnant. Make sure you prioritize rest for the health of your baby." The doctor said as she passed me my test result.My hands trembled when I received it. Oh my God! I gently ran my hand over my still-flat stomach as I read my test result. I'm expecting James' baby!"Thank you, doctor."This is a wonderful gift for our two-year marriage on our anniversary day. My husband’s return from his business trip is tonight. How will he react when I share the news with him? I can't wait!I just hope this baby will be the way for James to open his heart to me.I swung by the minimarket to pick up some cooking ingredients before heading home. I’m going to prepare James' favorite dish for dinner tonight; it’s going to be a memorable night for us both."Ma'am, you look so happy today. Would you share the reason with me?" Eda, one of the assistants in our home, asked as I was arranging the groceries in the refrigerator."I can't tell you right now,
