Third POVDespite the fact that Lynda was completely unaware of the reason why Adrian had called her, she was filled with joy on the inside. It was true that when she saw all of his officials in his house, she felt a little taken aback.On the other hand, that was completely unrelated to her. Adrian himself called her.She was feeling hypnotized as she gazed at the dashing man who was sitting in front of her. All these years, she had wrapped him around her fingers, so when suddenly he asked for a breakup and told her that he loved Natalia, she was shocked.Since Natalia was running after Max, instead of solving everything with Adrian, it was easy for Lynda to take Adrian back to her.Adrian signaled for Lynda to sit next to him. Lynda went to sit next to him on the couch while maintaining a cheerful expression on her face.During this time, every single official appeared to be anxious. They exchanged a quick glance with one another, unsure of what Adrian would do next.Adrian asked Ly
Lynda took a step back, and Gamma Benjamin came dangerously close to colliding with her. However, he grabbed her arms and moved her away from him.When Lynda caught a glimpse of him, she was filled with fear because he appeared to be a beast who could attack her at any moment.She averted her gaze and looked at Adrian with a nervous face."Adrian, why are you saying that? When did I do this?"Adrian did not stand up; instead, he leaned his back against the couch as if he were not in a bad mood.When Lynda saw Patric handing him a cigarette and lighting it for him, she swallowed her breath.She was frightened by Adrian and each of his officials.Only one question roamed in her mind:'How did Adrian get to know about this?'After a collection of thoughts, she dared ask him a question."Did Natalia tell you this? Adrian, she lied to you."Adrian stared at her. His face looked cloudy from the fog coming out of his mouth and spreading around him.She made her way over to him and sat down o
Adrian's POVI had lost my mind when Lynda said that. It was impossible for me to hear any bullshit about that woman. It was already too late for me to make amends with her. I was realizing it with passing seconds.I was feeling regretful that I had not given her my attention when she required it, that I had not shown her that I cared when she specifically requested it, and that I had failed to love her when she had shown that she loved me.Lynda's eyes were widened by my action. I was still holding the cigarette between my fingers while grabbing her neck.My officials hurried to me as they grabbed my hand and pulled me away from Lynda.The realization dawned on me that I had lost my mind for a second.With a look of disbelief on her face, Lynda looked at me. Tears began to form in her eyes."This is what you are giving me for loving you all these years?"Her question was emotional, but it did not work on me. I gave her a stern look and inquired,"Why did you do that? What was the poi
Third POVAs Adrian's hold tightened, Lynda found that she was unable to breathe. It would have been better for her to leave when he told her to do so. It appeared as though her confession stoked the flames of anger within him.Adrian let go of her neck when he noticed that her face was becoming pale.Lynda came to a crouching position and started coughing while she was holding her neck. The coughing continued for a while before she finally raised her head to look at Adrian.She was able to observe that his eyes lacked any sign of emotion. There was no remorse in his heart for the way he had treated her.She had always been treated with care and respect by him. For the first time, he attacked her as if she had no value in his eyes."Adrian, you did that to the person who saved your life; you are aware of that, right? How can you be so cruel?"In response, Adrian gave her a glare and said,“If I could hurt my wife all those years she was married to me, you should have realized that thi
Adrian let out a ferocious growl. He threw the tab on the floor when he saw some pictures of the night when he broke up with Lynda.Someone clicked photos of Lynda and him when Lynda was trying to kiss him. Though he did not let her kiss him that night, the photos looked the opposite.From that angle, it looked like they were making out.Adrian was already in a terrible mood. The news and the rumors that were not true hit him like a ton of bricks."What nonsense! Who dares to upload those photos?"Upon hearing this, his secretary lowered his head in response. It was evident that he did not know anything about it."Which news agency is it?""Moonlight Star," the secretary replied.Adrian tightened his fists as he muttered,"Call that company and talk to them about it. Ask them what headline they make about Alpha Adrian."Almost immediately, his secretary gathered the number of the company and then called the company using his own personal number.When a man received the call, the secre
Natalia's POV"Natalia, why don't you have lunch with us?"My mother asked when I was about to leave the house.When I turned around, I saw her approaching me. She was in my brother's room in the morning."Mom, you know Miss Liana is not at the coffee shop. I need to open the shop right now. Everyone who works there is currently on their way to the shop. I got late today since I didn't wake up in the early morning.""But, my child, health is important too.""Mom, I will eat something there. I don't want to disappoint Liana."“I am sure you didn't give her any reason to be disappointed with you. You are such a hard-working employee. There is no doubt that she is very pleased with you.”I gave my mother a hug and tried to persuade her that I was unable to make it to lunch with them.When I just turned around at the door, my legs froze.A frown appeared in my face when I saw a car that I was familiar with coming to a stop in front of my house. I could clearly see the man getting out of
Adrian's words took me by surprise."Did you come here all the way just to tell me that the rumor is fake?" I asked him with disbelief."Adrian, have you lost your mind?"He let out a sigh as if he were relieved. He lifted his head and rubbed the back of his neck, averting his gaze away from me.I heard him muttering,"I thought you would misunderstand me."I raised a brow. There was something odd about him. I could see that he was behaving strangely."Why would I misunderstand you? I don't have anything to do with you. I have my own boyfriend now. I don't care about anyone else's breakup or patch-up," I replied with a grin.I thought about Max. I was impressed by the way he let everyone know he liked me.I glanced at Adrian, who stared at me. His eyes darkened as if he did not like what I had just said."You should not have accepted that man. He is not good for you.""Excuse me?"He stepped toward me, which caused me to take a step back. He stepped inside my house, and his eyes roame
Third POVNatalia was speechless. She could only stare at Adrian as all the pain came to her in flashbacks.She almost forgot everything and tried to start a new life. But it looked like this man could never let her forget anything."Sorry for what? For hurting me? For humiliating me? Keep showing me my place in your eyes?"Her question left him shaken. For the first time, he felt his heart burning while looking into her eyes.It was because she opened up her emotions and allowed him to see the condition of her broken heart.He clenched his jaw as his heart started to beat faster.He wanted to hug this woman and told her that he was apologizing for everything, though he knew she would never forgive him."What about meeting after many years? What did you do? Was it Lynda who forced you to separate my children from me? Was she the one who forced you to insult my parents? What about the days I had to suffer for you?"She yanked her hand away from his grip and stepped backward."I hate yo
