LUCAS POVA while ago, I was staring at the blank space while sitting at my desk. Nothing else is going through my mind but what my drunken wife taught me last night. From the tone of her speech, who would have thought that she was still making up stories to escape? No one, not even me. Honestly, it used to be very convincing. Several times I felt and touched both of my senses that hurt while closing my eyes. It gives me headaches. I went back to that scene in my mind. "Why don't you want to believe that I'm not your wife?" she asks me between our kisses.I was stunned for a moment and thought about what she said for a few seconds. That's absurd! What do I have to do to make her stop thinking that she is not my wife? I'm getting tired of hearing that over and over again. Even though she doesn't even remember anything, that doesn't diminish the fact that she was my wife. Why does she think this?"Are you too dazzled by this look, Lucas? Do you love a woman with this face that much?"I

Chapter 91

Until the end of that day, I felt like I was floating, and that day I did nothing sensible other than think about what was happening in my family. If Uncle Elias hadn't knocked on my desk, I wouldn't have known he was in my office and right in front of me. Another thing that keeps bothering me is his insistence that I run for President of the country in the upcoming election. I know my political experience is too shallow to aspire to that high position. However, I could not refuse him. Actually, I have already done it several times, and I just suggested that he could run to that position since his position is close to that, but he said he doesn't want to and rather wants me to do it."Looks like you're deep in thought, Lucas. What do you think? Is it about your near filing of candidacy for President?"I just gave him a forced smile."Listen to me, Lucas. Don't you dare miss this opportunity. Why is it so hard to convince you? You have a lot of potential to be a good and reliable Presi

Chapter 92

ADELINE POVI've been going back and forth, going up and down the stairs, while waiting for Lucas to come home. He wasn't by my side when I woke up this morning. The helpers said he left early when I asked them about him. He didn't even eat breakfast, which he doesn't often do. It seems to have become a part of Lucas daily routine to eat breakfast before going to work. It was only now that he actually did the thing that worried me more."Oh, maybe Lucas has a lot of work to do in the office, which he had to finish, so he left early," I replied to the helper who answered my inquiry. Doubt was evident in her eyes.How many times have I tried to remember what happened between us last night, but I don't remember anything? My mind is blank for that, as if I passed out drunk last night. The last thing I remember is that he left the room last night, and his reason was that he wanted to breathe fresh air. After that, I drank the bottle of wine alone before I fell asleep to hide the shame of w

Chapter 93

The next day, I did not see Lucas again the moment I woke up. It was almost clear that I couldn't sleep thinking about the day of my departure from the mansion. What I still remember is that I hugged him tightly. Making the most of the time, I can still do it to him. I didn't ask the helpers about Lucas when I came down; they might even suspect that we have some marital problems if I keep doing it. I took Luke to school, but now his nanny is with me everywhere I go."It's Mayor Romanov's order that I can't leave you. I apologize, Madam Adeline; it's just part of my work. I don't want to lose my job. That will only happen if I don't plan to watch over you and your son, Luke. Don't get mad at me, as I am only doing my job. I hope you won't be angry with me if I am being like this now."We were in the car and headed back to the mansion. We have already taken Luke to his school. Without a choice, I just nodded to show her that I understood everything. Even if I get angry, nothing will cha

Chapter 94

I waited for a while before I finally heard Adeline's furious, mad voice on the other line. Of course, what else can I expect from her? She will probably be angry with me. I even moved Luke's nanny's mobile phone away from my ear because of how loud she shouted because of her animosity."Are you dumb? Didn't we talk about this last time and agree that you are now Adeline Parker? What is this? Why are you still bothering us?" It's her open speech to me; I haven't even been able to open my mouth to greet her. Dominic seems to have already let her know that I called them."Hey, listen to me first now. I already remember everything. I know who I am. I learn how our paths crossed that night—""I don't care about your story! Can you hear me? Just keep it to yourself, because it's useless now. It's ineffective because even if you remember everything, I won't trade with you. Now that I'm free, am I going to waste the opportunity to have the freedom I want?""Please, have mercy on my family th

Chapter 95

By the evening of that day, I did not expect Lucas to come home early. Maybe because he told me not to wait for him and eat dinner first earlier that day. Luke and I were only halfway through our dinner when he walked in the door. He joined us to eat instead of going upstairs and changing his clothes first. Something that puzzled me. Of course, I did not expect it because he did it just now during my few months stay here. Lucas prioritizes changing his clothes first after coming home before eating dinner."How's your day, Lucas?" I greeted him first after he kissed me on the right cheek, as he did with Luke, while his eyes shone with joy."It's fine. You guys?""We're fine too. Luke and I were in the playroom all day long. We have nowhere else to go.""Why don't you two go out and shop at the mall or walk and spend time at the park?"I watched him take his food. He carefully placed it on his plate after taking out a utensil. It's funny; everything seems to be normal for us again. It's

Chapter 96

Lucas fulfilled what he promised Luke by going out the following day, as we were already outside the mansion early in the morning. At the place where Luke asked us to go last night. We had breakfast on the way here so we wouldn't get weak from hunger. Luke was excited about what he was going to do today; the sleepiness on his face was not reflected on his face, even though he slept late last night. Just now, he is already one of the responsible children.While he and Lucas were at the skating rink, I was constantly taking videos and pictures of them. I don't know, maybe because I feel it's a good throwback when Luke grows up. Lucas tried several times to convince me to join them inside, but he didn't force me. For Pete's sake, I can't skate. Honestly, I don't know how to skate. I will only be embarrassed if I force myself to do it. Maybe Luke is even better than me, who is obviously determined to learn how to seriously skate in his state. "Why don't you like Adeline? Didn't you want

Chapter 97

From that day on, I felt like I was always walking on a cloud. Maybe because of the attention and love that Lucas gives me. I also noticed that Lucas always came home early from work. His overtime is not as regular as before. Every weekend, he takes us outside, and we do visit different tourist spots in the nearby places. He also provides us with anything we want. He also doesn't stop me and Luke from doing what I like to do. He was doing his best to be a good husband to me and a good father to Luke. I keep catching a glimpse of his improvement every day. Sometimes he gets angry and grumpy, but after that, he makes sure to apologize for his mistakes."Adeline, what do you think is a good plan for Luke's upcoming fifth birthday celebration?"I turned to Lucas when he asked me this. Nice that he mentioned this. I don't even know when Luke's birthday is. I didn't ask his nanny about that. If I reasoned out that I don't remember it because of my amnesia, Lucas might not believe me either.

Chapter 98

"Luke, where do you want to go or what do you want to do on your birthday? Tell me."It was two weeks before his birthday when we asked him. We are now hanging out in the theater room. Watching the newly released children's movie. Lucas and I went to watch it with Luke to bond. It's raining cats and dogs outside the mansion, and we are too lazy to leave to have fun for the day. This is the only thing we agreed to do since we didn't want to go out because of the bad weather. I was lying on the long sofa, while Lucas was on the sofa opposite me. Luke was busy with his toys."My birthday?"Luke's eyes were full of confusion at what I said. I don't know if he's just out of his mind to forget the meaning of a birthday or if they're just celebrating it right now. That is the impossible reason. Lucas would not allow his only child not to celebrate his birthday. That's a normal thing for parents to do to their children anywhere in the world."Yeah, your birthday, Luke. It means your special d

Chapter 99

My hands couldn't stop sweating as a result of even more intense pressure. We are now heading on our way to the airport, three days before Luke's exact birth date. Lucas suggested that we had to do that because, on the day of Luke's birthday, our bodies had already recovered from the fatigue of the long trip."That's fine with me, Lucas." I only replied when he stated that.From the day Lucas declared that we were leaving the country to celebrate Lucas birthday, I couldn't feel at ease thinking about what was going to happen during the day of our flight. I always catch myself floating and spacing out constantly while thinking about it."Maybe nothing bad will happen. I'm just too paranoid and think frightening things. It was just me."I have to convince myself every time I think about it so my heartbeats will slow down."That's right; nothing harmful will come to me or us."Another problem is that I was worried because this was the first time I would board an airliner. I don't know my
