Sold To The Abandoned Husband (English) CHAPTER 38: Visit
The next day, I woke up early to prepare. I didn't wear my usual maid dress, but instead, Ezekiel gave me a new white dress to wear.I've been wondering why he always gives me white dresses. From sleepwear, to casual wear, and now even for going out, it's always white dresses.I think it's his fetish."Wow, wow, wow! Why is Serena wearing that?" I heard the maids whispering behind me as I stood at the mansion's entrance. They were the ones who were gossiping in the kitchen yesterday. Their eyes were filled with mixed emotions - curiosity, admiration, and concern."Is she going to be a lady again?" one of them wondered."Hey! N-No way! Impossible! I won't allow it!""I'll resign if that happens."Their reactions quickly changed as they gave me a nasty look. I rolled my eyes at them and flicked my hair back before turning around to face them."Wow!""She's so arrogant!""Just because she's wearing expensive clothes, she thinks she's someone!"I couldn't help but smirk. My lips curled up

"Serena, how... how did you get here?" Raquel approached me as she was being pulled back to her place by Auntie Elizabeth."Who do you think you are to step foot in this place?! You're so shameless, aren't you?! Leave! Get out of here!!"She was about to come at me, but Ezekiel's men quickly positioned themselves to block her and prevent her from doing anything."Sorry, she was instructed by our boss to stay with us," one of them said with confidence."You Heskel's servants again! Always controlling me! Disgusting! You have no right to stop me because you're not in your territory, you peasants!""Mom!" Raquel immediately stopped her. "You don't have to say things like that. Restrain yourself.""Well, it's because..." she calmed down slightly. "No matter what, your brother never stops irritating me! He'll probably only stop when I'm attacked and my heart gives out!""Please don't say something like that, mom.""Well, if you don't want that to happen, get rid of this woman in front of me
Sold To The Abandoned Husband (English) CHAPTER 40: The Misunderstanding
How come... no one else is bringing up the fact that Ezekiel was cheating on me throughout our married life.I looked up at the sky. It was about to rain in a few seconds.I silently walked alongside Ezekiel towards the parking lot of the cemetery where the car, along with Kuya Pier, was parked."Hold my hand," he commanded, extending his hand towards me.I didn't look at him, losing interest in even glancing at him. But I still followed his request. I loosely held his hand, unlike before. I only maintained the grip when he forcefully tightened it."What did Mother tell you earlier before I came back?" he coldly asked."Nothing." I laughed bitterly, my gaze lost in emptiness. "She just blamed me for Uncle Ross's death.""Tsk!" he grumbled in frustration. "Don't let her words get through to you. She's talking nonsense.""If that's the case, isn't it true?""Of course not—""Isn't it true that because of your search for me, you neglected your responsibilities? To the point of worrying a

Ezekiel was looking through the window, watching the rain pour heavily.He had just finished showering and changing into his home clothes while waiting for Ramil to arrive at his office.His mind was still racing from the argument he had with Serena at the cemetery.Every word his wife said was etched in his mind. But no matter how many times they played in his ears, he still couldn't understand.He knows he's damn smart to even become the person he is now. But with Serena, all his rationality, logic, and reasons all fell down to nothing but a heavy flow of emotions he couldn't even explain to himself.Why... is she saying that he's a cheater or a liar? And even called him a womanizer. Was it because of Candice? The slut he paid for that night just to make Serena feel jealous, even the slightest bit?He believed it didn't work from the start, so he decided not to call her again to play pretend.Also, Serena brought out that woman, his ex-fiance, Marian.He instinctively held his chest

"SERENA, drink this ginger tea."Having a fever and dysmenorrhea at the same time couldn't make me feel any worse.My head was throbbing, and my vision was spinning. Due to crying yesterday, my eyes were swollen, and my nose and throat were congested. My lower abdomen was in pain, and my back ached from lying down all day.I didn't know how to position my body to make it comfortable and alleviate the pain."T-The pain..." One hand was rubbing my head, while the other was gently pressing a hot compress on my abdomen."Don't worry, the pain reliever will take effect soon," Ezekiel comforted me by my side. "Drink this now; your stomach is empty."I hesitantly looked at the ginger soup he offered. "I-I don't like the taste.""But this is good to relieve your tummy and muscle pain. You need to drink this.""I don't want to."Because I didn't appreciate Ezekiel's gentleness toward me right now, I wanted to act difficult. Let's see how far his patience will go.Besides, after what happened y

"Serena?" I slowly woke up to Ezekiel's voice, but I kept my eyes closed due to drowsiness. "You're still asleep?"I felt the bed sink as he lay down behind me while I lay on my side. His arm wrapped around my waist.I curled up even more, finding comfort in the warmth radiating from his body.I felt his gentle caress on my cheek from behind."I'm glad you're feeling much better than last night." His face nuzzled against my neck. I slowly opened my eyes as he took in the scent of my body.Since I hadn't showered yet today, I automatically moved my body away from him and slightly scooted away."Serena?" He pulled me back towards his body and hugged me tightly. "Did I wake you up?""Yes." I yawned. "Stop sniffing me. You're like a dog.""Why not? I like your natural scent.""I haven't showered yet, and besides, I have my period, so don't get too close to me."Even though I felt better earlier, I still didn't want to cling to him.But because I have my period now, I felt more at ease know

I felt much better the next day due to a whole day of rest and Ezekiel's kind treatment towards me.I had a different kind of energy today. Even though Ezekiel told me earlier before he left not to do anything, I was still in the mood to clean.While I was removing dust in the living room using the noisy vacuum cleaner, I couldn't help but hum."Well, well! The señorita is alive again!" Davina sarcastically teased me.As usual, Barbara was following her. They both had their own cleaning tools.Because I was in a good mood, I didn't feel annoyed by them."Davina, since you're so macho, can you lift this sofa so I can vacuum the inside?""Hey!" Her face immediately crumpled. She instinctively held both of her arms. "You just recovered from an illness, but it seems like you want to experience it again?""Is there something wrong with what I said?" I laughed. "Not many women are as strong as you, so be thankful.""You're such a brat!" Barbara got annoyed. "Lift the sofa yourself! Don't bo

"The audacity of that man to show up on TV, right? Just wait until Sir Heskel sees this!" Panying threatened angrily, completely focused on the screen.I remained transfixed there. As time went on, my heart started beating faster and faster, causing me to struggle to catch my breath."It's been so long since we last saw each other, Brantley! Wow! You've become even more handsome; your physique has grown! How have you been? In all this time, I'm sure you have a lot of stories to share with the public!"I could see Mami Vic's excessive enthusiasm. Brantley's wide smile reached his ears."It has been a very long time, so I thought people wouldn't recognize me anymore. But to see the influx of the audience now... I really didn't expect this!""We love you, Brantley!""Whoooooo!!"My face twisted in disgust. How is it possible that people still remember you and flock to you like that? I'm sure you pay those people!"For the past three years, our lives haven't been easy because of our depar

"How is Ezekiel after fainting?" Serena asked, concerned but amused after giving birth."Well, he got a bump on his forehead," Panying replied with a smile. "He's asking for ice from the nurse. Hahaha!"Serena burst into laughter. "Panying, I didn't know he couldn't handle it inside, but he insisted on being the emotional support. Turns out, he's the one who needs support during my delivery! Hahaha!""Seriously! He's brave when it comes to others, but he's weak when it comes to you. He fainted because of the stress and fear of seeing you in pain. He hasn't slept because he was nervous about your labor. Poor guy."Serena couldn't stop laughing despite her exhaustion and weakness due to Ezekiel's scene. "My poor love.""I'm fine!" Ezekiel exclaimed as he entered the hospital room. He took big steps towards Serena's bed to check on her. "My wife, are you feeling okay?""Pfft!" Serena noticed the redness and bump on her husband's forehead. "My love, what happened to you? Where's the ice p
Sold To The Abandoned Husband (English) EPILOGUE
The first woman Ezekiel loved was none other than his own mother.He treated Eliza with respect and honor. She was a wonderful mother to him, and all their memories together were truly happy moments of his childhood.She was the light of their home, so when she passed away, his world turned dark.He sat there in the corner of his room, surrounded by darkness, with no one to comfort him. No one was there but his own shadow.He mourned alone, drowning in his own tears; the heaviness in his chest was unbearable.And because he was a man, his father expected him not to show any emotions in front of people. That's when he started hiding and suppressing his true feelings behind his cold face.The insults he heard about Eliza from his own relatives and the rumors about his new stepmother, Elizabeth, didn't help either.He wanted to die because of the pain he felt at that moment. He always pretended to be ice-cold and unaffected by everything.But unexpectedly, while no one was watching the t

"Ta-da! You look so beautiful!"My female makeup artist was delighted with her work."This is a work of art! Look at yourself in the mirror, girl!"I couldn't help but smile sweetly. When I faced the mirrored wall, I couldn't help but admire myself.Wearing a stunning and expensive white wedding gown, I could hardly recognize myself. My makeup enhanced my natural beauty even more.The way my heart beats now is full of happiness. I can't believe I'm really getting married to Ezekiel again! It's only been a month since he proposed, and here we are, preparing for this day!In fact, when we first got married, I didn't feel this way. Perhaps because I didn't know him back then, I was overwhelmed with sadness and despair. My mother had to force me to smile and pretend to be happy.But now, my heart is overflowing with joy; there's no room for anything else! I think I'll always remember this feeling."Serena, you look so beautiful! You're like an angel turned into a princess! You've even sur

We were at the beach with Ezekiel, watching Duziell play with Halaenna, Freya, Panying, and Danilo in the distance, accompanied by three guards secretly keeping watch.We were resting and enjoying the hot weather. The sand between my toes and the deep blue color of the sea brought a unique joy and peace to my heart.Vacations are so enjoyable. I can't remember the last time I experienced this."Wife, didn't you have a shoot here before for the Sirena?" Ezekiel asked with a smile, as if remembering something. "I remember this is where it was shot.""Huh?" I was taken aback. I looked around again. "Is it here? I don't remember, because I was only fifteen when I played one of the Sirenas." I couldn't help but be surprised. "Honey, really? You were such a fan of mine back then that you even know this?"He chuckled softly, his eyes sparkling as he looked at me. "I can name every teleserye and movie you're in. You basically dominated my teenage years. That's why I'm crazy about you."My lip

"Be careful where you step, my wife!" Ezekiel was very attentive as we got out of the car, just coming from the hospital.I didn't know what to feel. "Ezekiel, I'm only three weeks pregnant. My belly doesn't even show yet.""Still!" His face didn't recover from its paleness. "W-We need to be extra careful, of course.""Of course, when my belly gets bigger, we need to be extra cautious. But the doctor said I'm healthy, so just by walking, our baby won't be in danger of falling, okay?" I clarified to him.But his nervousness and worry didn't diminish. "I should buy everything a woman needs during pregnancy!""Honey," I pinched his cheek. "All I need during my pregnancy is you by my side."He paused. "Then I should stop working—"I leaned in to capture his lips. I kissed him deeply and passionately before pulling away and giving him a sweet smile."You still need to work if you don't want us to starve."His mouth dropped open, as if on the verge of tears, and he looked at me, unable to c
Sold To The Abandoned Husband (English) CHAPTER 92: Redemption
Ezekiel leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixed on his father's lawyer, Samson, waiting for his response.The old lawyer, Samson, had been his father's trusted legal advisor for many years. They were discussing the final will and testament of Ezekiel's late father, which contained the key to dividing the family's substantial wealth."As the rightful heir, I expect to inherit the majority of my father's wealth, as stated in the document. However, there is an additional matter I would like to address."The old man adjusted his glasses and nodded attentively. "Of course, Ezekiel. Please continue."He continued, "According to the will, my stepmother, Elizabeth, who has already passed away, is entitled to a portion of the inheritance. However, given what happened, I believe that those rights should now be transferred to me."The lawyer nodded, paying attention to Ezekiel's request. "I understand your perspective, Ezekiel. However, please allow me to review the legal implications and consu

Ezekiel entered the underground basement. From a distance, the smell of blood permeated the familiar place, but it no longer affected him."Open the cell," he commanded Ramil, who promptly obeyed.As the cell door opened, he made his way inside. The two individuals he intentionally sought out were not immediately visible. He had to walk a few meters before finding them.Meanwhile, the people imprisoned in the cells on the sides were filled with anguish and pleaded to be set free. Those arrogant and brutal criminals were now acting like victims, always begging for his mercy whenever they saw him.This was the side of him he never wanted Serena to understand. He knew that Serena already knew about this organization. However, he wanted to keep it a secret and bury it along with the people inside.This was a place where he only encountered his own brutality and mercilessness towards those who once mocked, insulted, and threatened his life. There was nothing here but a nightmare."Brother?

"Don't worry, Mrs. Serena, your child is in good condition. Thankfully, the wound on his neck isn't deep. However, due to the severity of the cut, it will leave a scar. I recommend an ointment to speed up the healing process. As for why he is still unconscious, it's because of the sedative he was forced to take. But it's nothing to worry about; his breathing is perfectly fine, just like he's in a deep sleep."My mind slowly calmed down after hearing the doctor's words. I took a deep breath and turned to Duziell, who was still peacefully sleeping, unaffected by his injury.The tension in my body from what happened still lingered as I slumped in the chair next to Duziell's bed."Thank you, Doc." I expressed my gratitude. It wasn't easy for him to wake up in the early hours to do his job. Fortunately, the mansion is only a three- to five-minute drive from his house."You're welcome. If you have any more questions or if there's anything else I can do, I'll respond immediately.""Thank you

Ezekiel woke up when he realized Serena wasn't on her side of the bed.He groped around the bed and confirmed that she wasn't there, causing him to open his eyes and sit up."Serena?" He yawned as he got up to check the bathroom inside. But she wasn't there.When he looked at the clock, he wondered where Serena could be at only three in the morning."Serena?" He furrowed his brow as he left the room to go to Duziell's adjacent room. He was sure Serena left their bed to be with their son. "Se—"His mind quickly woke up when he saw that the door to the room was open. He rushed inside. The messy bed greeted him, but his son was not there, where Serena had put him to sleep."Where the heck did they go?" He hurriedly left the room and practically flew down to the living room.The surroundings were still, the lights were off, and there was no trace of his wife or child! That's when he sensed something was wrong.He quickly went to the maid's quarters, remembering where Serena's mother was p
