The weekend flew by quicker than Serene and Justin wanted. They had so much fun over the weekend and would love to have stayed longer.Carol and Conrad accompanied them to the airport.“Please visit soon,” Carol said to Justin as she was hugging him.“Yes, Mom,” he promised.“Take care of Serene while she’s at Hyacinth Bay,” Conrad said as he also gave Justin a tight hug.“Don’t worry, Dad, I’ll take care of her.”After saying their goodbyes, they both boarded. It was less than an hour flight, but Serene still slipped in a catnap. Justin read an inflight magazine while holding her hand.

Chapter 52

Cough!Serene felt shivers run down her spine at the sound. Oh no, is it Justin? Having experienced Justin’s jealousy when she and Rich were running tests, she developed hyper-awareness of the space between her and members of the male species. Justin could be narrow and closed minded when possessed by the green monster. Her head snapped towards the door expecting a tall, long-haired man standing by the door with a brooding expression. She let out a sigh of relief when she saw Al instead of Justin.“You’re here!” her excitement was evident in her voice.“Yes. Justin and I discussed the next phase of the project. How are you guys doing with the codes?” He walked towards the table where they worked and took a quick glance at her mon

Chapter 53

Alex and Serene worked with Rich for another round of testing. They continued getting errors but were making progress since the errors were no longer duplicates of the previous run.Serene and Alex focused on resolving the errors they’ve encountered. She did not notice the brooding man outside the conference room looking at them. He tapped on the glass to calltheir attention, but neither took notice.His sharp eyes looked sharper when Alex moved closer to Serene. One hand leaned to the table, and the other held the back of her chair. Serene focused her attention on the screen and from time to time would look at him, then back to the screen.He picked up his phone and picked her name from his contacts. The vibration of her phone startled her. Justin’s name di

Chapter 54

He started the car and drove out of the parking without giving her an answer and kept his eyes on the road. His hands gripped the steering wheel, the veins on his arms became more prominent.Serene kept looking at him. He’s obviously ignoring her. She let out a sigh and leaned her head on the window. They were already at Magnolia Crescent when she opened her eyes. Justin had already gotten out of the car and was going in the door. Shaking her head in disbelief, she unbuckled herseatbelt and got out of the car to follow him inside. This is the first time he did not open the car door for her. He immediately locked himself in his study. Serene let out a deep sigh when she did not see him in their bedroom. In the past, she's been able to ea

Chapter 55

Time moved quickly for Serene. In a blink of an eye, she’s already handing off her project to the person who will be Rain International’s Account Manager. This meant that she no longer had to work with Arthur and his team because she had prepared all they needed to roll out the software to their employees.Justin did not bring up the topic about her imminent return to Coast City anymore. They simply lived one day at a time, enjoying each other’s company. When his time permits, they would go out on movie dates, a luxury that Justin has not done in a long time. However, what Serene enjoyed the most were their quiet moments — their intimate meals at home, enjoying a TV show together, or their simple chats about anything. Any outsider would judge their lives as boring. They have unconsciously built their own routine around their indivi

Chapter 56

The hour and a half drive to the Rain mansion felt like an eternity for Serene. The roads ahead of them stretched to forever. She tried to close her eyes to calm herself, but she felt more anxious as the image of Chairman Rain flashed through her mind. Justin observed how she shifted in her seat and looked outside the window. She looked as if she had done something wrong and expected to receive punishment when she returned home. He blew a sigh and drew her closer to him, kissing the top of her head. “Relax, Babe,” he whispered while he rubbed her back. Serene nuzzled on his neck, inhaling his fresh scent. It somehow calmed her nerves and made her breathing even. Her eyelids felt heavy and in no time she dozed off in his arms.Serene woke up feeling gentle kisses on her mouth. “Hmmmm&hel

Chapter 57

Because of their unexpected meeting, Elaina had isolated Serene from them. The two talked about art. From listening to their conversation, Justin gathered the reason Serene sat in her mother’s class was that she looked up to Elaina as an artist. So when she learned from a friend that his mother will teach the following semester, she had arranged her class schedule around Elaina’s class. The two women were so engrossed discussing painting and the global art scene, they hardly noticed Bryan and Chester’s arrival. His brows arched when he saw Elaina animatedly talk to Serene.“Mom’s uncharacteristically chatty today,” Chester expressed his observation. “Uh-huh. Turns out, Serene attended her class when she was in college,” Justin filled him in.

Chapter 58

Serene waited for a minute before going back into the party. It would be awkward if she were to bump into Chester or Bryan. Although she did not want to eavesdrop, the two were not speaking in whispers. She clearly heard Chester tell Bryan that he wanted to divorce him. Her back stiffened from his declaration as if it was directed to her. She felt for Bryan. She knew Chester mattered to him. Otherwise he would not gamble his relationship with her and his family. Bryan’s family was conservative, although she did not confirm it herself, she deduced they were strongly against his relationship with Chester. She recalled that none of his family attended his wedding. A sigh left her mouth. She and Bryan were in the same predicament. Their past haunted his relationship, similar to how it haunted hers. He must feel suffocated as he tried to escape its clutches, but w

Chapter 59

The scene of Chester and Bryan’s argument kept playing on Serene’s head. It should not bother her since it’s their problem and not hers. But perhaps because she empathized with Bryan, that was why Chester’s harsh words declaring he wanted a divorce rang in her head. She felt Bryan’s pain as if it were Justin who wanted to break up with her.She tried painting to divert her attention, but it did not help her at all. Putting her brush aside, she looked at the clock on the wall. It’s just after ten in the morning and she’s already out of ideas on how to keep herself busy. She called Justin’s secretary to check on his schedule and decided to bring Justin’s lunch to the office. After confirming that he had no engagements during lunch time, she informed his secretary that she would be coming but wanted it to

Chapter 60

“You’re probably wondering why I wanted to talk to you,” she looked at him, before sipping on her coffee. He said nothing and only stared at her.  She let out a sigh before she said, “I unintentionally heard you and Bryan argue during your parents’ anniversary.” She lifted her eyes to see his reaction. Nonplussed, his brow arched. She knew she got his attention. “I’m sorry. I did not intend to eavesdrop. I hated crowds and I looked for a quiet corner away from everyone. I did not expect that you two would also be there. Unintentionally, I heard it when you said you wanted to divorce him. I am in no place to interfere with your marriage, but please hear me out.”  When Chester did not make any comments, she continued,  “I felt like Bryan and I are in a similar s
