Addison’s POVI looked at my father with an expectant look. Hoping that he would be willing to tell me everything that happened. Knowing that Damon and I had been married shocked me, so I wanted to know why I had separated from Damon and become like this."You don't want to tell me?" I asked in a very low tone of voice. I didn't know how big the problem was, so it seemed hard for you to tell me.Dad let out a long breath. "All right, Addison. I will tell you everything that happened to you and Damon. You have to prepare your heart and mentality."I smiled slightly in response to my father's words, which finally melted, and he wanted to tell me everything that had happened. Honestly, I felt very nervous. I was afraid that it would be very painful for me to hear. However, I had to know everything that happened to Damon and me, and I probably couldn't wait for my memory to return to normal."Back then, you and Damon loved each other. You got married, but it was unknown to many people bec
Damon’s POVI'm currently in front of Cora's house. I got the news that Cora came to Addison's residence and said various things to Addison. So now Addison knew everything because Cora couldn't keep her mouth right. This made me angry because she had messed up all my plans to fix my relationship with Addison.Cora has been distraught since the beginning. Her behaviour always made me hot. Apparently, bluffing wasn't enough to deter her. Maybe I should do something more ruthless to make her understand. Whether it's threats or harsh actions, I don't care. The point is that I want her to stop interfering in my business with Addison.The door in front of me opened and revealed the figure of Mrs. Hills, Cora's mother. Her face looked very friendly. She smiled at me. "Mr. Saunders, how are you? It's so good to see you here."I only smiled slightly in response to her greeting. I knew that Mrs. Hills was very kind, in stark contrast to her daughter, a manipulative woman. Or are they not the sa
Damon’s POVThe night after returning from Cora's residence and delivering the threat to her, I chose to spend my time getting drunk. If that woman messes up again, watch me make her regret messing with me. I might as well obliterate her until she's no longer in this world.I poured the whiskey back into the sloki and gulped it down instantly. I exhaled harshly, recalling that afternoon in the city park, where Mr. Clarke had revealed his profound relationship with Addison. I can't accept that. Mr Clarke can't have Addison no matter what. Addison is mine, and no one can take her away from me. Yes, Addison is mine.I walked with the whiskey bottle towards the desk and sat on the chair. My hand reached for the iPad lying on the desk and started looking through it. Finally, my eyes fell on a recent news story on a social media page informing me that Hayden Clarke had made his relationship with Addison Rundolph public.I shook my head quickly, reading the news. I was sure that if it was fa
Addison’s POVToday, I met Shofia at the hospital. I had contacted her earlier to ask if I wanted to meet her, so here I am in the hospital waiting room chair, waiting for Shofia to finish her shift. I seem to get very fond of the smell of the hospital as if it takes me back to the past. I remember that I often came to the hospital to accompany my father, who was still in a coma. So, I got to know some of the nurses and doctors here.Not long after, Shofia came to me. She did. Said that her work hours were over and would resume later in the afternoon. So we talked about many things here.I deliberately invited Shofia to meet because I wanted to reveal everything that I had just found out about my life. I'm sure Shofia already knows a lot about me, and she's deliberately keeping it from me. I wasn't angry with her at all. I was happy that she was looking after my mental health. Knowing all those facts alone almost made me faint, so I knew that Shofia deliberately didn't tell me because
Addison’ POVShofia glanced at me and at Hayden in turn. Shofia had to nudge my leg under the table while throwing a seductive smile. I, speechless, just shook my head and hid my happiness from Hayden and Shofia. I'm sure my face was already red, and I was embarrassed."We've ordered some food here. So are you going to pay for it, Mr. Clarke?" Shofia asked Hayden."Of course, order what you want," Hayden said very casually without any burden. He is indeed a lovely man.Shofia looked at me with a smiling face, occasionally teasing me again. Shofia was often like that, making me have to hold back my embarrassment. "Wow! You guys are great. Originally, Addison would treat me, but now you will treat me. You guys are amazing."Hayden just laughed at Shofia's over-praise. Hayden and I were happy, but as usual, I wouldn't show it to Shofia.Then, I replied to Shofia's words. "You're too much, Shof."Shofia laughed at me. "I knew you'd be uncomfortable with compliments, Addison. From now on,
Addison’s POVHayden and I decided to leave the cafe and head to the movie theatre to watch a movie. I guess this was our first date after formalising our relationship a few days ago. Hayden helped open the car door for me. After that, Hayden started to drive his vehicle away from the cafe street and headed to the movie theatre, which was only two blocks away. We could have walked, but Hayden said we wouldn't return here. I relented and agreed to his request. After all, he was right. He couldn't leave his car here.Arriving at the movie theatre, Hayden asked me to choose any movie I wanted to watch. I started to select the film that was playing today. Several movies were playing today. The choices were only action, fantasy, and romantic-themed movies."This!" I pointed at the poster of the movie that was playing today.Hayden seemed to smile happily when he saw me pointing at the movie poster. "Are you sure?"I nodded confidently."Alright, we'll buy the tickets." We walked to the cou
Addison’s POVWe arrived at the Clarke family residence, where Hayden lives. I didn't ask much about who Hayden lived with because the man had said that his sister was at his house earlier, so I didn't mind when Hayden took me to his home. I felt very nervous, even though Hayden had assured me that I wouldn't find anything strange in his house. Still, I felt nervous.Entering the house, I met Nataly. She greeted me warmly. I guess Hayden and his sister have the exact nature, they are very relaxed and full of enthusiasm. "It's so good to see you, Addison.""We're just out of..." I struggled to say the date, but Nataly understood what I meant, luckily."Ah, you guys just went on a date."I blushed. I don't know why I felt so embarrassed to admit it. Hayden just laughed at the interaction between me and his sister.Then we sat together on the sofa in the lounge room. I sat beside Nataly while Hayden sat alone on the couch."So my brother asked you to come here after your date?" Nataly as
Addison’s POV I let out a long breath, then answered Hayden's question about my inability to get married too soon. "Because I have found out what happened to me in the past. It really shocked me after I found out that I was a woman who was once married and left everything for the man I once loved, but that man gave me hell instead." I guess the memory of the marriage was still too vague, and I just listened to my father's explanation. If I remembered everything, it would have been much worse than what you told me. Hayden seemed to be listening to my words very intently. I took a sip of wine from my glass and started talking again. "Even though I don't remember Damon very well, something remains. I can't just get married without thinking about anything. I want us to get to know each other well. I also want us to go through the relationship like water flowing and as it is. No coercion or urgency. We can do that, right?" I knew what happened to me was like traumatizing a marriage, so
Damon’s POVAfter the conversation with Mr. Clarke, I immediately ran to Addison's hospital room excitedly. I knew I still had a chance to make things right with Addison, and I wouldn't waste it. I would also prove to everyone, especially Mr. Clarke and Addison's father, that I still deserved to make Addison happy.I also won't waste Mr. Clarke's sacrifice, who, with his kindness, let Addison go for me. I knew it was hard for him to decide for Addison.Arriving in front of Addison's hospital room, I let out a long breath, trying to strengthen my heart. Come on, Damon, you can do it!After that, I opened the door to the room and saw Addison, who happened to be staring at me, too. She was alone and seemed to have been crying. I knew that this was the right time to express my feelings to her, which I had experienced during the time she didn't remember me anymore.I stepped slowly to the center of the room and stopped. 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
Addison’s POVI opened my eyes and smiled when I saw Hayden standing not far from the bed. Then, I felt something grasping my hand. Was it Dad? 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
Addison’s POVHayden looked sharply at Cora, and then Cora made an annoyed face at Hayden as if not accepting what Hayden had said to her.I felt uneasy now, worried that something might happen here because, at this moment Cora had stood up from her seat and stood facing Hayden. 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
Addison’w POVI opened my eyes slowly, and I saw Hayden's face looking at me. I blushed. "What are you doing?" I moved behind him as I remembered what happened between him and me last night. 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. I know, I'll wait until you're
