last update Last Updated: 2024-11-20 23:31:14

“WHAT IN THE WORLD,” Celene let out a quiet curse as she caught sight of Jarred walking into the restaurant where she and Noah were supposed have their date. It had been three days since the incident, but her work experience since then hadn’t been enjoyable, to say the least.

Thanks to Ash’s assistance, she believed she had resolved the situation. However, not all of her coworkers were convinced that she hadn’t tempted someone’s future husband, particularly in her own department where Amelia started labeling her as a slut.

After several days of emotional exhaustion, she finally had a day off and hoped to escape the toxic environment. But of course, the universe had other plans as she would now have to face the person she despised most. She let out a deep breath and looked away, hoping he wouldn’t notice her presence. But, as luck would have it, he spotted her immediately.

“Celene,” he called when he approached the table where she was seated near the glass wall

    IN AN INSTANT, their lips met, and they were lost in the moment. Noah’s hand gently caressed Celene’s cheek as he deepened the kiss. But before things could escalate, the sound of a doorbell shattered their intimate bubble. Both of them straightened up immediately, clearing their throats and trying to compose themselves.“I-I think the room service’s already here,” she stammered, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as she averted her gaze. Meanwhile, Noah let out a sigh, obviously frustrated that they got interrupted before striding towards the door and pulling it open.Celene watched him, somehow, she was starting to feel uneasy about being alone with Noah in a private setting. They still hadn’t talked about his confession from days ago, and she wanted to establish boundaries to protect herself from getting hurt again, but the recent kiss made her realize that she was starting to feel drawn back toward Noah just like she had in the past.Being around him was both exhilarating and

    “OOF!” Celene closed her eyes when Noah suddenly laid her down on the bed and positioned himself over her. He took advantage of the fact that she hadn’t immediately reacted to his movements by kissing her deeply, allowing her lips to linger against his, letting her taste herself on his tongue.He continued to passionately explore her mouth as she moaned softly in response, his hand gently caressing her body before slowly removing the towel that had been concealing her figure.“You smell good,” Noah muttered as his kisses trailed along her neck until he reached her breast, which he fondled lightly, earning a soft groan from Celene beneath him.“Nghh~” She tugged at his hair, relishing the sensation of his warm tongue dancing around her erect nipple while he massaged her other breast with his hands. The sound of Celene’s moans filled the quiet room, making Noah’s desire to grow even further with each passing moment.He was only engaging in foreplay to prepare her, but he could tell she

    “CONGRATULATIONS,” Celene smiled as her parents greeted her after she received some good news that her divorce had been finalized. Two weeks had passed since her last encounter with Jarred, and now, her marriage to that asshole was finally dissolved. She couldn’t be any happier knowing she was officially free from him.She had anticipated it would take a few more months, so the sudden news caught her completely off guard.“We should celebrate this!” Isabelle suggested excitedly, relieved that her daughter was no longer married to Jarred, who was now struggling with financial losses because his mother had become addicted to gambling. Celene didn’t know it yet, but she was secretly getting revenge on Martha by orchestrating her losses in casino games. Of course, she wasn't the one playing; instead, it was her secretary who was quite skilled at it.“We are having dinner with Noah and his parents tonight. We can deliver the news to them and celebrate together,” Herman chimed in, and the m

    “RELAX,” Celene retrieved her phone from Noah after he ended the call.“You should change your number,” he said, feeling his anger building up again at the thought of that bastard saying he loved Celene.“I’m going to, I just kept forgetting it.” she said before blocking the new number Jarred used to call her. “Why did you even do that?”“Am I not allowed to?” Noah asked, somehow, sensing Celene wasn’t pleased with how he acted. Despite knowing that what he did wasn’t entirely appropriate, he was still confused as to why she would be upset with him, considering the person involved was her ex-husband.‘Does she want to keep talking to him?’ he thought.“It’s not a question of whether it’s allowed or not. Taking someone’s phone while they’re in the middle of a conversation is extremely disrespectful. Would you be okay with it if I did the same thing to you?” Celene asked, unsure why she was making such a fuss when she didn’t actually care about his actions.“Yes, as long as it isn’t an

    “IS THIS A GOOD IDEA?” Celene asked, her voice barely above a whisper as she followed her cousin out of the marketing office.She didn’t know why or what the reason was but announcing that the chairman wanted to meet her in front of everyone felt like a risky move. The idea of them whispering and speculating after they left made her anxious, knowing that they would likely come to their own conclusions without all the information.After all, her father was known to be poor at remembering names, especially when he only met the person once or twice, so it must have been a surprise to everyone that she was called out. Besides, a regular employee being summoned to the chairman was a rare occurrence.“What do you mean?” Ash turned to her, “Walk by my side, it’s making me uncomfortable that you’re walking behind me.”“I’m a regular employee right now. I thought you already knew about my mission,” she answered as she carefully looked around, making sure they weren’t looking suspicious. ‘Is Da

    AS CELENE headed to work the next day, she noticed a car parked in front of the building. She recognized it immediately and tried to ignore Jarred as she continued walking. However, he got out of the car and followed her.“Don’t worry, I won’t cause any trouble,” he said, grabbing her arm tightly. Celene then let out a sigh and pulled away.“I have work, let go.”“I just want to give you an invitation,” Jarred persisted, pulling out a red envelope from the pocket of suit and gave to her. “You should come to my engagement party tomorrow.”Celene furrowed her brows, still questioning the sincerity of his words from the other night. She clenched her jaw tightly, aware of the potential gossip surrounding her and not wanting to add fuel to the fire. Letting out a frustrated sigh, she reluctantly accepted the invitation handed to her by Jarred.“Fine, whatever. Just let go of me. I’m already running late for work,” she snapped, shooting an annoyed look at Jarred who quickly released her.“J

    “HAAH!” Celene couldn’t help but release a sigh of disbelief. She had anticipated that he was up to something, but she never would have guessed he would twist the situation to make it seem like she wasn’t supposed to be there.Despite this unexpected turn, she refused to let it get to her. If needed, she would play along until she could find an opportunity to escape from this predicament.“I must be a joke to you.” she smiled before taking out the invitation, "‘But fine, I'll play along with your little silly game.”“This, you handed me this yesterday with a desperate expression on your face.” Celene shoved the invitation into his chest before glancing at Agnes, “And oh, do your mistress know that you called me the other night to tell me that you love me after our divorce had been finalized?”The murmurs grew louder, creating a collective gasp as Celene’s words sunk in. Agnes clenched her jaw and glanced down at the invitation that fell to the floor. She didn’t know what Jarred had in

    “ARE YOU OKAY?” Noah asked as soon as they were out of the gate, holding Celene closed because she was shivering uncontrollably under her damp nightgown and her hair dripped with water.She smiled and nodded, feeling satisfied with the outcome despite her earlier humiliation.The memory of her own embarrassing fall into the pool paled in comparison to the immense satisfaction she felt when Noah finally revealed his true identity to Jarred, Martha, and Agnes. It was a gratifying sight to see their expressions change from disbelief to horror as they realized the gravity of their mistake.“You say you’re okay, but you’re clearly not.” Noah let out a sigh and turned to his driver, who quickly got out of the car and opened the backseat door for them. But before they could even step inside, Jarred called out to them in desperation.“Wait, Mr. De Laruente!” He nearly stumbled as he hurried to catch up with them. Celene couldn’t help but snort and cover her mouth, which only seemed to anger M

    “WHAT?” Noah furrowed his brow, attempting to recall the events of earlier.Once he had taken care of everything at work, he ordered himself a cup of coffee from his favorite cafe. When it arrived, he had planned to call Celene, but after taking a sip of his coffee, something felt off and that was the last thing he could remember.“Your secretary informed me of the possibility that your coffee may have been tampered with. He is currently looking into the matter.” Celene explained between sniffles. Noah then gently pressed his lips together and brushed her cheeks with his fingertips, understanding exactly what she was going through at the moment.“I’m sorry for worrying you—”“Why are you apologizing? It wasn’t your fault.” she said as she touched his hand, “How are you feeling? Shall I call the doctor?”“No, I’m feeling fine.” Noah shook his head, “So, stop crying now. I don’t like that I’m making you cry.”“How can I not cry when I almost lost you? The doctor assured us that the pois

    “GOOD MORNING,” Celene opened her eyes to see Noah’s smile. It was infectious, and she couldn’t help but smile back at him as he looked at her with his head propped up on his hand, “How are you feeling?”“I’m feeling great, I feel refreshed,” she responded, closing one eye as he leaned in to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead.“That’s a relief. I was afraid that you’d be sore from last night,” he chuckled, remembering how they had made love again and again after taking a quick break. Celene’s cheeks instantly turned red as she too, remembered how wild their night was.Not only did they continue to engage in intimate activities, but they also did it without protection throughout the night.“I cooked us breakfast, let’s go downstairs before it gets cold.” Noah chuckled because he could tell that his wife was reminiscing their passionate encounter last night.Celene nodded and got up out of bed, stretching her limbs while yawning. She then made her way to the bathroom to freshen up befo

    THE SOUND of the bed creaking and their heavy breathing filled the room as Noah and Celene lay intertwined together, enjoying every inch of each other’s bodies. Tender kisses covered their bare skin, leaving their lips red from kissing. Their fingers entangled in each other’s hair making them forget everything else in the world, and only they mattered to each other.“I love you so much,” Noah muttered between kisses as his lips met Celene’s. They were both completely intoxicated with passion and bliss, unable to keep themselves from moaning at each other’s touch. His tongue danced against hers before sliding into her mouth, causing her to shudder underneath his touch.“Nghh~ I love you, too,” Celene breathed out, her hips moving against his own. She wanted him desperately, she craved him constantly for the past days they were apart, and now that they were finally together, she couldn’t get enough of him.A small smile curved Noah’s lips as he lowered his mouth to her chest, gently kis

    “MOM,” Celene called out when she entered the private room where her father was currently sleeping. “How’s Dad?”“He’s recovering well. According to the doctor, he should be able to go home in about a week if everything continues to improve as expected.” Isabelle replied and Celene felt a sense of relief.At least there was some good news amidst the unpleasantness that had filled her day so far.“I see, that’s good to know.” She smiled, “By the way Mom, I’ll be going back to the penthouse.”“Oh, Is Noah returning tonight?”“Yes, Mom. I just drop by here so I can tell you personally.” Celene smiled before kissing her mother on the cheek, “Tomorrow, I’ll visit again and take care of Dad so, you can go home and rest.”“All right,” Isabelle nodded in understanding, and Celene moved over to the bed to give her father a gentle kiss on the forehead. With a wish for his speedy recovery, she left the hospital, hoping to see him back to full health soon.“Let’s swing by my parents’ place first

    THE SOUND of her phone ringing jolted Celene awake from her peaceful sleep. With a groan, she fumbled for her phone with one eye still closed. When she saw that it was Martin calling, she quickly answered and brought the phone to her ear.“Hello?” she greeted, her voice groggy as she rolled onto her back.“Good morning, Ma’am. I’m already on my way to your parents’ house. I’ll be there in 30 minutes.” The moment those words reached Celene's ears, she shot up and glanced at the clock on the bedside table to check the time.It was already 9:00 AM.“All right, call me again when you’re already here.” She jumped out of bed and hurried into the bathroom to freshen up before ending the call abruptly. She realized she had overslept and had to be somewhere by 10:00 am, but she had just woken up. She cursed under her breath and rushed to get ready before Martin came to pick her up.She quickly took care of her appearance, brushing her hair and changing into a new outfit. She even added some ma

    “CELENE!” Celene felt a surge of anxiety as she heard the desperation in Isabelle’s voice when she saw her rushing out of her father’s room with urgency.“W-what’s wrong? Did something happen to Dad?” she asked, her heart beating faster.“N-no, but he’s woken up.” Isabelle’s eyes welled up with tears, and Celene’s previously tense expression softened into one of relief.Together, they entered the room where Herman had finally awoken after a long period of sleep after his operation.“Dad,” She approached the bed, her eyes getting teary at the sight of him awake, “How are you feeling?”“Hmm, I’m feeling fine.” Herman’s lips curled into a smile as he extended his hand to gently brush his daughter’s cheek. He then turned to his wife, who was now overcome with emotion and tears. He tenderly touched Isabelle’s face just as he had done to Celene and smiled, “Dear, stop crying. I’m okay, I’m alive.”“I-I know, I’m just glad nothing bad happens to you.” she sobbed and Celene pursed her lips, t

    THE AROMA of freshly brewed coffee greeted Noah as he entered the kitchen, where Celene was already busy making breakfast for them. He couldn’t resist wrapping his arms around her waist and planting a gentle kiss on her neck as he watched her cook.“Did you wake up early for this?” he asked and Celene nodded.“Yeah, I wanted to cook for you and eat breakfast together before you leave,” she answered before turning off the stove and facing him. She then wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him down a bit so she could kiss him. “Let’s eat,”Noah gave a small nod and took a seat at the dining table. From there, he observed Celene as she finished arranging everything on the table. Once she was done, she joined him and started to eat together.“Are you going to work today?” he asked as he took a bite from his toast.“Yeah, I’m feeling fine now since I had plenty of sleep last night,” she replied, “After work,I’ll head directly to my parent’s house to drop off my bag before making a vi

    “NO,” Celene’s response was firm and unwavering. She could see the desperation in Martha’s eyes, but she couldn’t bring herself to give in. After everything that had happened between her and Jarred, she didn’t owe them anything.“If that was your sole purpose for coming here, then you can go now. I have no intention of seeing your son ever again.” She added as she straightened her posture and went back to her swivel chair, “I have a lot on my plate already, so if you dare to show up here again, I’ll make sure that you and your son will never be able to escape the mess you’ve gotten yourselves into.”Martha winced at the harshness in her voice, but she remained resolute. She had to keep fighting for her son, no matter how much his ex-wife still despised them. It was a difficult battle, but she couldn’t give up.Watching Jarred struggle lately was devastating for Martha as a mother. She blamed herself for the crumbling of their family; not only she hadn’t been a bad mother-in-law to Cel

    TIME FLEW BY and the false rumors about Celene and Noah’s alleged affair before their marriage were finally dispelled. Martha’s statement had a significant influence in restoring the couple’s reputation, and as a result, they were no longer subjected to any further falsehoods or gossip being spread about them.“Are you sure about going public?” Celene placed the cup of coffee on the center table and took a seat next to Noah, who was engrossed in reading some documents. However, as soon as he felt her by his side, he set aside his paperwork and focused his attention on his wife.“Yeah, I don’t plan on hiding my face from the media forever anyway,” he said as he wrapped his arms around her shoulder, “But, are you sure you won’t go to Paris with me?”“I’m sorry, as much as I wanted to be with you on your first public appearance, I have many other tasks that require my attention,” Celene said apologetically, leaning her head onto Noah’s chest.If only she weren’t busy, she would definitel
