MADDEST OBSESSION のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

(Serena's POV)I toss and turn in bed countless amount of times, trying to find a comfortable position to sleep in but I'm still not satisfied. I let out a groan, finally giving up on trying to sleep. I know it's because of my nagging thoughts that are contributing to my lack of sleep, more than anything else.My mind flashes back to what happened last night. Heat flushes into my face and groaned in frustration. Why...Why did I give in easily?Why I cannot resist his touch?Just why Serena?Thank God! Nana disturbed us.This is the same situation when he suddenly kissed me while yelling at my mistake as his assistant. That moment brings back memories. He brought me into the past. Those feelings, that itchy thing in my chest.I hate this.This makes me even more worried. I adjust my pillow, as I sink down into its softness, trying to find some sort of comfort.What if Marcus is just doing this so that I lower my guard? I keep telling myself that I'm being absurd and overthinking eve

(Serena's POV)"Hey, wake up." I heard a familiar voice. I felt cold hands on my arms, shaking me. I slowly opened my eyes to see a very angry Marcus.He sighed. "The next time you run off, it's over." He said and helped me up. I looked down and saw the bloody hole I fell into. Who digs a hole in the middle of a path?Wait... Did he save me? H-How-- my eyes landed on his injured leg, he's still sitting in his wheelchair."Let's go, my leg is aching."I instantly pushed his wheelchair, all the way to the house with him grumpy and mumbling how stupid I was. The sky went from a sunny morning to a grey dark."Shit." He cursed causing me to stop.Did he just curse at me? I didn't ask him to save my guts inside that Goddamn hole! Why does he keep saying the fact that I'm an idiot itself? With a scoff, I was about to scowl at him but suddenly look up. "It's going to rain." He said and turned his head to me. "I trust you have enough energy to run?" He asked and I nodded. The path is not c

(Serena's POV)The following morning, he resumed ignoring my presence all day long and wouldn't even look me in the eye. Given that, someone arrived on the island. Looking by their clothing, they must be Marcus's business partners. I became his maid the whole day, pushing his wheelchair while carrying his suitcase and documents. It seems like I'm back as his assistant. I always give what he needed but he never talk to me. Well, for me, this is better than listening to his words of wisdom.I was also surprised that they congratulate us for getting back together. I remained silent and he did the same. I'm tired to have a conversation with his visitor.How can they assume without checking the fact? Paparazzi is everywhere and any moment from now, our faces will be in the headline the very next day. Thankfully, he was not caught when he become a waiter for a day in Los Angeles.When my presence is not needed anymore, I exit the circle and head inside the house.I was sitting on a stool i

(Serena's POV)Late on a Tuesday night, Marcus walked into my room like nothing had happened. Had he forgotten how I'd pushed him away? Our silent treatment lasted for a week. His cast was removed a few days ago and he can walk but only to be careful. It's getting closer to my freedom. But every time I glance at the calendar, it's saddening me for no reason.I am staying inside the house so much was messing with my line of thought. While Marcus has back his duty as a CEO. Everything seemed muddled and confusing and I began to worry for my own sanity. Any reminder of what my life used to be like was too painful and I'd rather do without it.An envelope was thrown onto my bed where I sat. I looked at Marcus in all his drunken glory and wrinkled my nose because of the strong stench of alcohol coming from him. I already warned him about drinking alcohol. But will he listen? Now that I declared to him I'm done with him? Pain hammered in my chest like a stung needle every time I kept reme

(Serena's POV)Lying in bed as the fused warm light of dawn now creeps down the summit. My head was everywhere. I cannot sleep a wink last night, not even closing my eyes for a second. My mind is empty.My heart is in pain.-Your job is done. Thank you for everything-His voice keeps running through my head. Every time I closes my eyes, his no emotions pale blue eyes stared at me like I was just a mere stranger to him now.It pains me.But I deserved it.Did I?A knock on the door jolted me on my bed. "Housekeeping."It's Marcus's servant.I let her in to change the bed sheet and clean the whole room while I am gazing down the balcony where Marcus's employees are having fun on their own.This is not a team building. It seems like a vacation for his people. I smiled to know that he still care about his people even though he does not express it while at the company.Here I am again... Thinking about Marcus.Finally, I'll be leaving him.This is what I want, this is what I was hoping
