Damon’s POVI left Cora's house and drove my car towards where the scene was. Arriving there, I didn't find Addison, who had probably left earlier. I finally got back on the road aimlessly because I wasn't going back home or to the office like I told Cora.Yeah, I lied a little bit about that. I don't even know what I'm doing right now. Finally, I arrived at a place. I know this place very well because I often come here. I got out of the car and walked to a small shop on the side of the road to buy something. Just a sandwich and a carton of milk. I thought this was just children's food.When I left the shop, I saw what I bought earlier. This is so strange. Why did I have to buy this? I knew that this was Addison's favorite food because every time we came here, she would always buy it. She said the bread and milk was the best combination she'd ever had.Did I feel bad for Addison?Ah! I don't think so. It's not guilt. I know that Addison deliberately wants to torture herself by not eat
Damon’s POVI missed Addison so much. I don't know how long it's been since we were as close as we used to be. I tried to get closer to Addison and kissed her. I liked the smell of the soap Addison was using. I looked at her peaceful face. Addison is gorgeous, and I love hearing her spoiled voice when we chat. But, lately, I don't seem to listen to her soft voice anymore. She always said something rude to me.I seem to be very drunk at the moment and can't think much. All I want to do is embrace Addison into my arms. I like this moment, where Addison is asleep and not fighting me, rather than Addison always fighting me.However, before I did, Addison had already awakened from her sleep. I could see her startled by my presence. Her eyes looked at me sharply, and she moved slightly away. But I held her hand away from me."What are you here for?" Addison asked me curtly. Her gaze was still fixed on me.I didn't answer her question. Instead, what I did was kiss her forehead. But Addison d
Damon’s POVI returned to my room after Addison's room, which I somehow ended up in. I chose to take a seat on the sofa and started to close my eyes. Addison's seemingly indifferent attitude towards me was still on my mind. However, I quickly shook my head and didn't want to think about that woman. Why would I do that? I thought it was a waste of time.I opened my eyes again and looked at the ceiling of the room. Suddenly, a shadow of the past crept into my mind, and I recalled memories of the past with Mom and Dad.At that time, I was still small, probably around nine years old. Our family life still seemed fine. My parents and I lived happily and were always filled with laughter. I seemed like a fortunate child to be born in the midst of harmonious parents. However, after my ninth birthday, my family situation slowly changed. Mom and Dad fought more and more without me knowing what was causing it, and because of that, it made me very uncomfortable.I remember once venturing into the
Addison’s POVAfter a few days at home, today I visited the hospital to meet Shofia for a routine check-up. I didn't care about Damon after last night when he got drunk and entered my room. We didn't say hello after that, and I purposely avoided him because I was so tired of that man's attitude. I didn't care what she did either.After the checkup, Shofia took her break, and we walked outside for a while to chat. Afterward, we stopped by a favorite cafe near the hospital where Shofia works."How is your relationship with your husband? Are you guys splitting up or keeping the marriage?" Shofia asked curiously.I shrugged my shoulders. I wanted to break up, but Damon was always stalling, even saying he would never let me go. What a pain in the ass that guy was. He could have let me go and married Cora, but Damon didn't want to do that just because he had a grudge against my father."I don't know what he wants, Shof. I wish he would let me go.""Addy." Shofia took my hand and squeezed it
Addison’s POVAfter meeting with Shofia, I returned home because Shofia had to return to work. I wish I hadn't met Damon at home. Maybe I wish that Damon didn't have to come home anymore because he hadn't come home in a long time and spent more time with Cora. I don't know why, but I also don't know how recently she decided to come back. However, after the incident, the night he got drunk, he disappeared and didn't show up again.Arriving home, I was surprised because a car was parked in the yard. Was it Damon who came home?Looks like my wish didn't come true this time. With lethargic steps, I continued to walk back into the house, and at that moment, I bumped into Jared Leigh, Damon's assistant, who happened to be leaving the house. I thought Damon had come home, but I was too weak to face him again. Fortunately, it was only his secretary who came, not Damon."Madam." The man bowed his head slightly.Since I became Damon's wife, Jared has been very respectful of me. Even now, he sti
Addison’s POVAfter the meeting with Jared earlier, I felt stranger about Damon's situation. That man said he loved Cora very much and that they would get married soon. And, I thought all this time Damon would be living with Cora, but he wasn't. Damon was living in his apartment and not with Cora like I thought. Jared said that Damon spent more time at the office and often stayed overnight at his office. Of course, it surprised me a lot. Although I didn't care, I was a little curious about Damon. What exactly does Damon want?I'm currently at a cafe. It's not for nothing that I'm here, I'm waiting for someone I knew a long time ago, and I hope that person still remembers me.I'm enjoying my drink as I look around the cafe. From the direction of the cafe entrance, I saw an old man, who I guessed to be my father's age, walking towards me. The man wearing the hat and army jacket actually came to where I was sitting."Addy? Addison Rundolph?" he asked, ensuring he got my name right.I smi
Addison’s POV After the meeting with Uncle Austin, I chose to take a walk on the sidewalk to get some fresh air. I recalled the conversation with Uncle Austin earlier about my father and Helena. I hadn't found the common thread yet. I thought Damon had misunderstood my father because I knew my father very well. He wouldn't do anything bad to anyone, let alone his friend's wife. "What should I do? It seems that relying on Uncle Austin alone is not enough. Uncle Austin obviously doesn't know much about Helena Saunders." I let out a long breath. Maybe I should look for other information that knows more about Helena Saunders. "But, who should I ask for help?" I should just go home and think about it all at home. I think that's enough for today, I hope Uncle Austin can get more information about Helena Saunders so that everything can be clear and I know what really happened to them-Damon's father and mother. I chose to wait for a taxi on the sidewalk to get home. However, suddenly, a
Addison’s POV I had just finished my morning shower and immediately went to the kitchen for breakfast. However, I was surprised to see Damon at the dining table enjoying his breakfast. I thought he wouldn't come back home after the past few days of us avoiding each other. I was disappointed to see him in the house as I thought he would stay in his apartment like Jared said.It would have been awkward sitting at the same table with him. Maybe I'll wait for him until he finishes breakfast, then take turns. So, I opted to get some mineral water first to wet my throat. I walked past the table where Damon was sitting. "Good morning, ma'am." I nodded back at Jared, who was preparing breakfast for Damon. I walked over to the cabinet to grab a clean glass and fill it with water from the dispenser. "Addison, let's have breakfast together." Did I hear Damon ask me to have breakfast with him?I turned to him, and he was looking at me, too. "Sit down and have breakfast." His head moved, and
