Evadne was almost hoarse from screaming, but she continued just to release the pain in her chest. She was hurt inside and out, as if her sanity was on the verge of breaking. Almost to the point where she contemplated ending Orion and Evadne in her thoughts.

“You’re such an idiot, Orion. You’re shameless! Why did you do this to me?!!!” Evadne’s knees were almost giving in, but she remained standing, screaming. “What you did to me, Orion, is unforgivable. I thought... I thought your feelings for me were genuine? But why did you deceive me?! Huh?! Why?” She weakened her voice, eventually collapsing on the grass. There, she cried even louder.

The memories of catching her husband in the act with another woman in their own bedroom were like a dagger repeatedly stabbing her heart. A memory where she generously let the woman stay in their home.

Now, she found herself in The High Line, overlooking a beautiful view from New York. But that breathtaking view was not why she went there.

    Evadne’s emotions were welling up again, tears threatening to spill.“Y-you,” she couldn’t help but blurt out as she eyed the man thoughtfully. “W-what are you doing here?”“This is my favorite camping spot, especially when I’m in Manhattan. I was surprised to see you here too. I even thought you were someone else until I caught your attention. When you turned around, that’s when I recognized you.” He sighed.“Did you hear what I said?” she asked, tears welling up again.Nodding, he lowered his face and quickly caught the tears falling from her eyes with a tissue. It was embarrassing to have someone witness her misery. She bit her lower lip.“It’s okay, Miss Coffee Shop Owner. I don’t mind. You better eat first. It’s late.”“My stomach can only handle water,” she said, allowing the tears to flow freely down her cheeks. The tissue in her hand was already damp.Evadne, there’s nothing you can do if that man saw you like this. The important thing is, you’re not close, and he doesn’t know

    “Is there no more beer?” Evadne asked Gavin, extending one hand towards him.Gavin lowered Evadne’s hand. “No more. You finished it all.”“What about me? You also drink,” Evadne said, rubbing her forehead. The six cans of beer she had earlier seemed to be taking effect. He only had ten beers with him when he thought of going there to camp.Who would have thought he would fine a woman in a place where he often set up his tent to escape the noise and chaos of the city?Not many people go there, and usually, he doesn’t encounter anyone. Unlike now. There was someone there whom he never thought he would see.He didn’t plan to go home that night to Buffalo in New York, where his penthouse was located. So, he proceeded to set up his tent earlier while a woman was screaming and crying. Crying her heart out. He didn’t want to interfere, so he let her be. It seemed like she didn’t notice him anyway.He had just finished setting up his tent a while ago, and the woman was still not done venting

    Evadne’s eyes fluttered open, awakening to a blurry world. Her consciousness abruptly returned, and the sun had yet to fully burst into the sky. However, there was enough light from outside for Evadne to see her surroundings.She was slightly puzzled by what her eyes beheld. She found herself inside a tent.A tent?!She quickly scanned her surroundings until her gaze settled on what was behind her.Her eyes widened when she saw a man there. Especially when she took a closer look at the man.“What—”Gradually, the events from yesterday replayed in Evadne’s memory. She spent the day in The High Line, Manhattan. She even had a few beers. And... and...Her lips parted as the memories of what transpired between her and the man last night flooded back. Evidence of their intimacy lingered under the blanket during those moments.“Evadne! What have you done?!” she screamed in her mind.Before the man woke up, Evadne carefully got up, located her scattered clothes, and meticulously dressed her

    Evadne was gazing out the window of her rented apartment again. Memories flooded back to her when she had to give up her life in their mansion and settle for a small apartment, just enough for someone living solo like her. Now, here she was again. It wasn’t the mansion she had to give up, if it wasn’t not the cold relationship with her husband, Orion.Instead of opting for a condo unit, she searched for an apartment to move into. She had spent days accumulating various belongings, all funded by the credit card under her husband Orion Ashford’s name.In the over seven months they had been married, she had never used that card even once. Until now. She was certain he would be surprised by the number of items she bought with his credit card, nearing its limit.In a way, she wanted to retaliate by extravagantly spending his money.He was the one who told her to use it whenever she needed to. Despite having substantial savings, she never touched a penny of it.Being alone felt strange.She

    The entire company of Orion Ashford was in chaos that morning. It was announced that day that his father, James Ashford, who served as the president and CEO of Ashford Empire New York branch, had something important to announce.Orion’s father, James Ashford, had returned from Seoul, South Korea, adding an air of anticipation to the atmosphere. Orion himself was surprised by the sudden call from his father, that he was coming back to the country.Almost everyone was already inside the spacious boardroom, but the meeting had not yet started. James Ashford, an older man with grayish hair, arrived, and even Orion bowed his head in respect upon his father’s arrival.“Aren’t we starting yet?” Orion couldn’t help but ask his neighboring board director.“We’re still waiting.”“For whom?”The person beside Orion shrugged. “I don’t know either.” His gaze followed the opening door of the boardroom. “Looks like they’re the ones we’re waiting for.”Orion turned his gaze toward the door where two

    Gavin attended the party, a personal invitation from Mr. James Ashford. The event served as the formal announcement of Mr. Ashford’s resignation as the president and CEO of the ASHFORD Empire, with Gavin set to take over as the new CEO.Even before the party started, Orion Lee was already accompanied by a glass of alcohol. Gavin intentionally chose to sit next to him.“You’re Mr. Ashford’s son, right?” he asked.Orion nodded. “Supposed to be his successor. But little did I know that my father had other plans,” he added, shaking his head.“Why didn’t he pass it on to you then?”“My father had many conditions. If it all leads to this, wasting my time on that woman was pointless,” he said with a sigh.That woman? Was he referring to Evadne?Gavin pursed his lips. If Orion dismisses her that easily, so be it. He never cared for her.“I heard you’re married,” he mentioned casually.Orion shook his head, tightly gripping his wine glass. “Did my father tell you? Well, not anymore.”And you’r

    Because Evadne was once again alone in life, she decided to expand her business. She planned to open another branch of her coffee shop. She was just contemplating on the ideal location for it.She couldn’t rely on the sole branch of her coffee shop forever. Even if it’s not too big and just the right size, slightly smaller than the main branch.Evadne rubbed her temples. She felt dizzy again, even though she had eaten breakfast. She also went to bed early last night.From sitting on the sofa in her small living room, she moved to her kitchen and drank some water.When her cell phone, placed in the living room, rang, she hurriedly went there to answer the call.Her college friend, Galilena was calling. “You called?”“Evadne, it’s been a while. I wanted to invite you,” Galilena said on the other end.“Where?”“Party,” she replied shortly. “Isaac is throwing a party on Saturday night. I’ll text you the address. Come, okay? Don’t be absent.”Evadne hesitated. Will she go? She’s sure Orion

    “I’m glad you came,” Galilena greeted Evadne with a wide smile as she arrived at the venue of the party. It was held at the pool area of a five-star hotel.Their friend, Isaac De Delta, was about to migrate to the US. Many of their college batchmates, who were also frequent attendees at parties and events, were present. Isaac’s personal friends were also there.Evadne breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t see Camila or Orion at the party. If the two were present, it would surely ruin her mood, and she might not even continue with the party.“I might upset Isaac if I didn’t come,” Evadne said to her friend.“Let’s go, many are waiting for you,” Galilena urged Evadne to move.Why were many waiting for her? Was she too late?Most of their acquaintances were standing around, engaged in lively conversations. They were professionals in various fields, such as doctors, lawyers, engineers, and successful business owners.“Evadne,” Isaac said with delight as he saw her. He hugged her. “It’

    “Let’s talk about business later. I want our conversation today to be about us. Hmm?”She smiled at Gavin. “No problem with me.”When his lips descended to hers, she didn’t hesitate to respond to his kiss. They were alone, and she didn’t see anyone else. So, she thought it was safe to respond to the kiss of the man she loved.***Does many in Evadne’s circle of ex-friends know Gavin well because his name is also famous as a member of the UHB Leisure Club?Now she pieced together that information. She was already familiar with the UHB Leisure Club; she had heard about it before. However, she couldn’t pay much attention to it or join in the hype because she preferred to focus on her business. And when Orion came into her life, that’s when her world mostly revolved.She felt even more overwhelmed by Gavin’s status in life. He was surrounded by friends who were also billionaires. Gavin practically had a golden spoon in his mouth.She sighed as she watched Gavin approach her. They were in

    “GUYS, not now, please?” Gavin requested as the guys approached their table.Evadne remained silent and refrained from joining the conversation. Deep inside, there was a part of her that couldn’t help but feel a bit starstruck by the men surrounding her and Gavin. It was her first time being surrounded by this kind of divine blessing from God.“Why does it seem like the girl with you on your last visit was different?”“Yeah, right?”Confusion was evident on Evadne’s beautiful face. Did Gavin bring another girl aside from her?“Don’t believe them. They’re good at teasing,” Gavin retorted, turning to her with a very apologetic expression. It was as if he wanted to warn the guys that he could get protective. “I’m warning you guys,” Gavin added as they stood up. “Coming here was a big mistake.”“If Arturo hears you, you might not even step foot here,” Kwame scolded.“I don’t care,” Gavin replied, approaching Evadne to help her stand.“Leaving already?” Armando asked Gavin.“Yes, and my gi

    As the private jet soared smoothly through the sky, Evadne unfastened the seat belt strapped around her and approached Gavin for a hug. It seemed they had the same intention, as he was about to remove his seat belt as well, only to be preempted by her. As she embraced Gavin, he, in turn, pulled her onto his lap. He reciprocated the hug.“I love you,” Gavin once again expressed with full affection.Tears still welled up in her eyes as she looked at him. “You do?”“Isn’t it obvious yet?”Evadne bit her lower lip slightly to prevent herself from bursting into tears. She was too emotional, unable to help it.Gavin took a handkerchief from his pants pocket, gently wiping away the tears on her cheek.“Sweetie, don’t cry,” he pleaded softly.“I can’t help it, Gavin. I’m just happy to hear those words from you.”A smile formed on Gavin’s lips as he hugged her again, using the handkerchief to wipe away her tears this time. Evadne pressed her face against Gavin’s neck, and he didn’t complain ab

    FROM the cellphone, Gavin’s gaze lifted to Evadne, who had been staring at him for a while now. He smiled and stopped peeking at his online business. He shifted his attention to his girlfriend.“It seems like you want to melt me with your stares, sweetie?” He teasingly grabbed Evadne’s attention.She blinked and realized what she was doing. Blushing slightly, she averted her gaze back to the TV.If only she knew how cute she looked to him while staring. And his heart? It seemed to overflow with joy seeing the emotions in her eyes, all her attention focused on him.When he caught her looking at him, he couldn’t miss the slight reddening of her cheeks.“Or maybe you’re still thinking about what we did in the bathroom? Want a round two? Maybe you’re just shy to say. You know there’s no judgment from me. My body is yours,” he teased her.“Gavin,” Evadne scolded him, making her cheeks even redder. “I thought you were watching, but you seem too engrossed in your cellphone.”“Yet, when you l

    Evadne clutched the bathroom door handle. She felt dizzy that morning. Alone in her apartment, she decided to deal with her discomfort on her own. Believing that proper rest would make her feel better, she resolved to take a nap.As she was about to step out of the bathroom, she suddenly felt a twist in her stomach. Hastily, she rushed towards the toilet bowl and vomited the breakfast she had earlier.What was happening to her?Even the morning meal she had consumed was expelled from her system.When Evadne felt that she had nothing left to throw up, she rinsed her mouth and brushed her teeth to get rid of the taste. Deciding to lie down and rest, fatigue quickly overcame Evadne.Upon waking up before noon, her condition had improved. The headache from earlier had subsided due to a good rest.When she checked her cellphone, she noticed numerous missed calls and text messages from Gavin. He was out of town with his personal assistant and was scheduled to return to New York the next day

    “H-How—”Camila still couldn’t believe what her eyes had witnessed. Evadne and Gavin Wright were no longer in her sight, yet she couldn’t bring herself to move from where she stood. She was more stunned than the fish caught earlier.Was Evadne unaffected by her earlier taunts because of what happened, or was it because of her new relationship? And with Gavin Wright, of all people? How did that happen? Camila tightened her grip on her pushcart.“How could she have hook in such a big fish like Gavin Wright?” Camila felt like she was going crazy just thinking about it.Could Evadne be happier than her? Everything she desired seemed to fall into place for Evadne - in life, with men, and in attention. Everything favored that woman.“You think you’re always happy? I won’t allow it, Evadne Whitlock,” she firmly stated.That night, when Orion returned to his condo unit, Camila stared at him intensely.Did he know that Evadne’s new partner was now the CEO of their company?

    Evadne stirred as she felt the light kiss that Gavin showered on her face.“At last, you’re awake,” Gavin said with a smile as Evadne slowly opened her eyes. “Good morning, sweetie.”A smile played on Evadne’s lips as she first saw Gavin’s handsome face. It was already morning, and Gavin had awakened earlier than her. Fatigue from the previous night made her sleep longer.“Good morning,” she greeted, her voice almost hoarse.Gavin kissed her on the lips again. “Let’s have breakfast. The dining area is ready. Unless you want me as your breakfast?”“I’ll get up now,” she replied with a laugh, rising from her lying position. Gavin helped her sit up.But he didn’t immediately let her go, pulling her into an embrace.“Gavin, I need to use the bathroom,” she complained. She felt like her bladder was about to burst.“Okay. Make it fast,” he said, giving her another kiss before releasing her.“Hmmm,” she murmured, trailing her fingers across his cheek before finally getting out of bed.Her si

    In Evadne’s previous visit to Gavin’s penthouse, she didn’t even explore it. Now that she has the chance, that’s exactly what she did. However, she found herself stuck in the pool area. The side of the pool was made of thick transparent glass, providing a clear view of the surrounding buildings and the distant scenery.The view was stunning, as if inviting her to sip red wine while submerged in water, watching the sunset with the pool area facing it.“Wanna swim?” Gavin asked Evadne as he approached her on the pool lounge chair.He joined her and sat on the chair behind her. From there, he wrapped his arms around her waist, causing her to lean back slightly against the chair.“I don’t have a change of clothes,” she told her boyfriend.“There’s a women’s boutique downstairs in this building. I can call them and have something sent over for you.”If she stayed there overnight, she didn’t even have sleepwear or bathing attire for the next day.“I should have stopped by my apartment befor

    Suddenly, Evadne recalled the moment she saw Gavin again after a month in that same hotel. As he entered the hotel’s main entrance, the hotel staff respectfully bowed to greet him.Now, being with Gavin again and witnessing the same scene, a shiver ran through every inch of her body. It felt like she was walking with a king beside her. If she weren’t beautiful, she would hesitate to stand next to the man. Or if she were of lower status, she might distance herself from Gavin.Gavin’s presence was even more intimidating.It showed how wealthy he was and how the hotel staff respected him, just like her parents.“Is this how your staff always behaves when you arrive at the hotel?” she couldn’t help but ask as they waited for the elevator, reserved exclusively for the hotel owner – which went straight to Gavin’s penthouse on the top floor of the Wright Hotel.“Hmmm. They’re used to it. They were the same with my parents,” Gavin casually replied. You couldn’t tell if he was proud or boastin
