Addison’s POV

I still didn't understand the man standing in front of me. He didn't answer my question about who the sender of the gift was. I guess he wasn't just anyone. The man was well-dressed and very modest.

"Miss." The man again thrust the box towards me, asking me to accept it. But I still refused to take it.

"Who are you?" I asked again. On closer inspection, it felt like I was familiar with the man's face. I squinted at him, trying to remember something. "I seem to have seen you before ...." I was still trying to remember where I had seen that man.

The man remained where he was standing without bothering to help me remember when I met him. "Ah, I have seen you with Damon, er, Mr. Damon Saunders. Right?"

The man smiled slightly and nodded his head. "That's right, Miss. I am Jared Leigh, Mr. Saunders' secretary."

Oh, thank God, it helps my memory. Jared?

Somehow, that name seemed familiar to me. I seem to be very familiar with the name.

I looked at the man a little sarcasticall

    Addison’s POVI sat at the dressing table and looked at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes fell on the necklace around my neck. It looks so pretty. I like it. Yes, I don't know why I liked that necklace so much. The necklace was indeed very pretty, a simple beauty that wasn't too fancy. But I liked it, and it felt like it was just like me once it was simple and not flashy.After the room, I went out to accompany Father. Father was sitting in the lounge reading letters coming to our house. As I sat on the sofa next to him, he turned to me. I could see where Dad's eyes were going and smiled."Is it a gift from Damon?" Father asked me a question.I touched the necklace I was wearing and nodded. "That's right, Dad. It's strange, but this necklace is very much to my taste." The necklace had my favorite butterfly pendant.Father continued to watch me, ignoring some letters on the table that hadn't been opened yet. Being noticed like that made me frown in surprise. "Why do you keep looking

    Addison’s POVI was still silent, thinking about Hayden's words about Damon being called a very bad man. If Hayden can say that, of course, I have to ask what problems actually happened between Hayden and Damon. This really makes me curious. Because that's what I wanted to ask Hayden and Shofia from the beginning, and maybe this is the right time for me to ask Hayden. Is she going to tell me what exactly happened this time, or is she still silent like she did? I have to give it a try.I turned to Hayden, who I guess had been looking at me for a while. "I want to know what exactly happened between you and Damon when I lost consciousness or when I was before the operation. I really don't remember anything about what happened before."Hayden seemed to exhale a long breath. "Addison, the truth is that it was Damon Saunders who destroyed your father's business and made it bankrupt. And you already know that it's just that your memory is having problems. So you don't remember completely. Th

    Addison’s POVHayden and Shofia had gone home a few minutes ago. After their departure, I sat silently at the dining table after putting the rest of the tarts into the fridge. I'm still thinking about what Hayden said about Damon. I had to ask Dad about it because it was so important, making me angry about what that man had done to my family.I didn't realize that behind that man's generosity was something I never expected. No wonder Damon recognizes me. He intends to take my heart, so I don't know anything about what he did to Dad's company."Addison."I snapped out of my reverie, then turned and smiled at my father, who sat before me."Why do you look like you're thinking about something? Did something happen?" Dad asks. I could see from the look on his face that he looked worried."Did you know that Damon Saunders destroyed your company?" I asked him matter-of-factly because that was what I wanted to know immediately.Father seemed to nod his head. "Yes, that's right."My facial ex

    New RelationshipAddison’s POVHayden is still looking at me with a confused look. I'm sure he's wondering what I have for him. Or did he forget what happened last night in my backyard? If so, that's unfortunate. He may think that I don't think about his feelings, so he feels that I'm terrible for ignoring his feelings."Why did you want to see me, Addison?" Hayden asked with a voice that seemed hesitant and very careful.I just smiled slightly in response to Hayden's confusion over my attitude. Then I let out a short breath and looked at him again. "I don't think it's a problem if I accept your declaration of feelings for me."Suddenly, Hayden's eyes rounded as soon as he heard my reply. He rubbed his ears and looked at me in surprise. "What did you say just now?" He asked with a confused look.I chuckled at his voice, that sounded surprised about what I said. Why is Hayden being unfocused like this anyway?"Did you not hear what I said, Hayden?" I asked him again with a chuckle.Hay

    Addison’s POVSo now Hayden and I have a new status. Yes, we're dating. This made me feel a little better because I didn't want to make it awkward for us to meet. Plus, we were friends for a long time. Hayden has always been good to me and helped me a lot, so there's no harm if I give him a chance to take our relationship to a more definite level. Anyway, I think I feel very confident in Hayden already. He's a nice guy, and like Shofia said, Hayden is the right person for me. Yeah, I hope so.After leaving the cafe, we now took a stroll to enjoy the afternoon atmosphere that seemed very warm. We headed to a city park where many couples and small families were also enjoying their afternoon time. It's pretty nice, we can meet many people here and greet each other. I think we've come to this park before. Yes, I remember coming back from the party we were at that night."Look, there's a photo box over there!" Hayden pointed to a large box in front of us.

    Addison’s POVI waited for Hayden, who was waiting in line for my cake order. I just sat here watching as the people slowly moved forward. The queue shrank a little. No wonder the cake outlet was crowded because they made a big promo to attract customers amid emerging competition.As I waited, I noticed the sky looked very clear this afternoon. In the next few hours, it will turn dark. I liked the night sky, where many stars were scattered to accompany the moon.I let out a long breath while folding my hands. The afternoon breeze blew the dry leaves further on the paving blocks. The atmosphere was very cozy and not too cold.I hummed a little as I looked at the park, which seemed crowded with children running happily. They looked so happy as if they didn't have any burdens. I wished I could go back to my childhood. I don't remember my childhood, whether I was happy then or mediocre. All I remembered was my mother's death when I was very young. And perhaps that was the saddest moment t

I should have guessed that it was bound to happen sooner or later, plus Addison's memory was also having problems. Mr Clarke must have said many sweet words to Addison and made her melt. Sneaky guy. I guess I was right in guessing that he used that opportunity to melt Addison's heart.However, still knowing they had a special relationship made me unable to accept it. How dare he look for opportunities in Addison's weakened state. I'm sure Mr. Clarke has taken Addison's heart to easily accept it. And making up bad stories about me to make Addison hate me even more.But, right now, there are many things that I have to explain to Addison because Addison has wholly forgotten me and everything about our marriage. But strangely, Addison didn't forget about the man or his friend. It made me sad to have been forgotten. If only Addison had remembered everything that happen

I don't know where Mr. Clarke took Addison, either back to Addison's or the man's house. I was curious as to what they were going to do.I let out a rough breath. How could I even think about that?

Addison was still looking at me without saying anything. She just look

    Hayden’s POVI let out a long breath after walking out of Addison's hospital room with a horrible feeling. I stayed in front of the door long to calm myself down. I knew my decision had been well thought out after seeing Addison, who kept calling the man's name while in a trance. I foolishly let Addison go because I knew she couldn't get Damon's image out of her mind. I knew this was the right decision because I couldn't possibly keep a woman who still held the love of another man in her heart. Even though I felt my passion for Addison was more significant than anyone else, including Damon Saunders.When I felt a little better, I was about to leave this place and go home. However, my gaze fell on Damon, sitting in the corner of the hospital hallway as if waiting. I walked over to him. Damon looked at me as I headed towards him, then stood up from his seat.I was standing two steps before Damon with my gaze fixed on him. "I want to talk to you."Damon nodded his head. I walked first, a

    Addison POVI was still surprised by what Hayden said. I didn't think he would say that now when I still didn't understand what was going on. Everything seemed very confusing to me. Then, with his silence, it was as if he didn't care about what Damon did to me.I shook my head quickly. "No, Hayden. That can't be happening. We just had a beautiful relationship. You know I'm happy with you..."Hayden retook my hand and squeezed it hard. His eyes looked very cold looking at me. What's with those eyes? Can't he look at me with a loving gaze?"Addison, you better be honest if you've been lying to yourself, and it's making you hurt more. Isn't that right?"I paused to digest Hayden's words, which seemed very painful if they were true. If so, I must have hurt Hayden a lot. I looked at Hayden and shook my head slowly. "I'm okay, Hayden. I feel fine."I was surprised to realize that my voice was stammering. Was I nervous?"I found out who you really love," Hayden spoke again.Suddenly, I raise

However, when I looked down to get a better look, it wasn't Dad but Damon. That, of course, surprised me a lot.Hayden just looked at me without wanting to come closer to me, so I knew the man who was holding my fingers was Damon. Shouldn't Hayden be angry?"Why is that man here?" I asked Hayden while pointing at Damon. However, Hayden remained silent and said nothing at all.Suddenly, Damon raised his head and smiled at me. "Addison."I looked at him in astonishment. How could Dad and Hayden let him be here? I looked back at Hayden, and he was still staring at me silently and showing no signs of preventing Damon.Damon moved closer and immediately hugged me. I was surprised by what he did. This really makes me not understand what's going on. Why is Damon here, and now he is hugging me? And Hayden, who is just silent as if he didn't see me, Da

    Damon’s POVI really feel so broken at this point. I was so stupid to have done bad things to Addison all this time. I admit that no matter how much good I do, I won't be able to erase the sins I've committed against Addison.After I let her be happy with Mr. Clarke, I thought there wouldn't be any more bad things happening to her. Turns out I was very wrong. The disaster was Cora, who escaped my attention. I should have deterred Cora by what she did to Addison back in the day. I felt stupid for letting her wander around with a grudge in her heart. I would have made her disappear long ago if I had known Cora was after Addison.Jared informed me about the accident that happened to Addison, which made me angry. Plus, I was told that Cora was the culprit. Indeed, after I got an ultimatum from Jared to let Addison go, I didn't just let it go. I asked Jared for absolute conditions to keep monitoring Addison's condition. Jared said he would do it in a limited time. I promised him that if Ad

    Hayden POVThe smile that appeared on Addison's face was extraordinary. She is really very beautiful when she smiles, and it makes me love her even more. We chose to sit on a park bench to enjoy the snacks we bought and canceled lunch at the restaurant."You have to finish all this food."I chuckled at her annoyance at the amount of food I had bought."Don't worry, I'll finish it. You know I eat a lot."Addison chuckled at my joke. "Yeah, I know. That's why if I make a cake or food for you, I don't worry because you have to finish it."I laughed out loud again."You know, Addison. Any food you make automatically becomes my favorite food."Addison's face turned red. I'm sure she blushed at my teasing words. Addison blushes easily when anyone compliments her. She really is a very innocent and naive woman.Addison only ate a little of the food we bought. I, on the other hand, couldn't finish it all and intended to take some home to give to Nataly.After enjoying lunch at the city park, w

Cora's face looked very angry as she prepared to reply to Hayden's words."Don't be so confident, Mr. Clarke. Because a man who is overconfident in his words will eventually bend the knee before me." Again, Cora said that with great confidence.I smiled faintly, realizing that Cora's attitude was more courageous, and I felt very confident in herself rather than the judgment of others.Hayden smiled sarcastically at Cora. "You're the one who shouldn't be confident, Miss Hills. Because someone like you who has nothing can be destroyed very easily."Cora's chest seemed to deflate at Hayden's words, which made her even more annoyed. I can see that the muscles around Cora's face are tense. I'm sure her temper will

    Addison’s POV After Hayden's departure, I walked into the room with a happy look. Yes, I am very happy right now. How could I not? I felt loved so much by Hayden. I also felt euphoria in me that seemed to explode, and the butterflies in my stomach flew around very cheerfully. Oh, is this what it feels like to be in love? It felt amazing, and I loved it. I imagined Hayden over and over again, the moment he kissed me so passionately, touching me so gently. Hayden really treated me very well and affectionately. But on the other hand, I wanted to show Damon how much I was loved by a man like Hayden, not a man like him who couldn't appreciate me as a partner. Suddenly, I shook my head quickly. "What do I have to do with him? I'm determined not to remember him anymore." Remembering Damon made my facial expression become grim. It seemed like that guy was having a bad effect on my life. Maybe I should just remember Hayden, because if I remember Hayden my face will definitely turn red and

I was embarrassed."Hey, why are you turning away from me, Addison?" Hayden grabbed my shoulders and pulled my body back to look at him. Didn't he realize how embarrassing he was making me look?Finally, we faced each other again, Hayden's hand smoothing my messy-looking hair. I still vividly remember what we did last night, and it makes me look like a complete idiot. We were adults, and it was natural for us to get in touch with each other. However, for me, being in front of her was very embarrassing."Are you mad at me about last night?" Hayden asked me cautiously.I shook my head softly. "Why should I be mad if I enjoyed it too."Hayden gave a small chuckle. "Addison."He called out to me. Then I looked at him without asking."I want to get more serious with you.
