Chapter 251 Home Invasion

I assumed Jethro's confrontation with Anna would resolve everything. Believing she’d cease her harassment after his stringent words, I felt a sense of relief. I later found out how greatly I had underestimated the depths of a woman scorned.The following day, a violent banging at my door startled me, and opening it revealed a group of intimidating, burly men. Their threatening presence immediately set off alarms in my head. It was clear they were here with nefarious intentions.In a shaky voice, I confronted them, "Wh-Who are you?"The apparent leader, with a cold expression, asked bluntly, "Serena Hart?""Yes, that’s me. What is this about?" My anxiety grew as I stared at these intimidating men.Without responding, the leader signaled to his companions and commanded, "This is the place, guys."My confusion and fear mingled as I tried to understand their intentions, but before I could react, the leader pushed past me. His henchmen followed suit, and they began a rampage. They sma

Chapter 252 Is It That Difficult to Accept My Gifts?

As the phone line went dead, a sense of desolation overwhelmed me. There I was, sitting amidst the chaos, shivering with fear. Before, I might’ve been less scared, but with a life growing inside me now, every danger felt magnified. My safety was no longer just about me.Jethro, who typically took half an hour to reach Verdantia from his place, arrived in under fifteen minutes. He looked shocked at the sight of my ravaged home.He quickly came to my side, crouched down, and looked at me with concern. "What happened? How did everything get this way?" His voice was hoarse, revealing an agitation underneath his usual cold demeanor.I instinctively threw myself into his arms, finding some solace in his embrace. "I don’t know either. Some men just stormed in and started wrecking the place. They say I’ve upset someone.""Are you hurt? Did they harm you?" Jethro examined me meticulously."I was… I’m fine." I almost revealed the push but quickly held back as I was afraid of revealing my pr

Chapter 253 Getting a Job Through Mason’s Help

After the unsettling event, peace was restored to my home. The next time I went out, I couldn't help but notice extra security guards in my building. A little digging revealed that Jethro had filed a complaint about the building's security. Considering his influence in Arrowdale, it was no surprise that his concerns were promptly addressed.His public involvement in a matter that concerned me was both shocking and touching. I appreciated his gesture but couldn't help feeling uneasy about his changing attitude toward me. I was afraid that if he continued being this considerate, I might not be able to keep my feelings in check.While I sat amid the new furniture in my living room and struggled to connect with the memories that once filled this space, my thoughts were interrupted by a call from Mason. I paused for a moment before picking up."Yes, Mason?" I greeted him enthusiastically.My focus had been on my pregnancy and job hunting lately, and that left little room for anything el

Chapter 254 Worsening Morning Sickness

“Mason, I really wish you wouldn't—"I tried to express my discomfort at his remarks, but Mason interrupted me before I could finish."Eat up. You’ve lost weight since we last met," he said, nudging a slice of bacon toward me.I usually enjoyed bacon, but now that I was pregnant, the thought of any greasy foods turned my stomach. I clapped a hand over my mouth and made a beeline for the restroom, feeling sick.Behind me, Mason called out in concern, "Are you all right, Rina?"I barely heard him, focused on getting to the restroom. Once there, I bent over the sink, sick to my stomach. Everything I had eaten came back up, yet the nausea persisted. Only had I rinsed my mouth of the bitterness did I feel slightly better. My morning sickness seemed to be intensifying.After tidying my disheveled hair, I returned to my seat where Mason awaited me, looking worried. "What happened? Are you feeling unwell?""I’m fine. Just an upset stomach.”I downplayed my discomfort. Revealing my preg

Chapter 255 Pregnancy Test Report Discovered

"I’m just concerned about you, Rina. You seemed unwell yesterday, so I asked my housekeeper to prepare something light for you," Mason explained as he walked past me into the kitchen.He set down some packed food on the table and opened it. As he placed an open box before me, I saw that the meal he brought was simple and light."Thanks, Mason. This is very kind of you, but you don’t need to go to such lengths next time," I said, feeling a mix of gratitude and unease.Mason’s intentions were clear, but because of my complicated history with Jethro, I hesitated to get closer to Mason. Surprisingly, he didn't bring up any of the widely circulated rumors about me and Jethro, adding to my bewilderment."I don’t mind the trouble," he replied nonchalantly, though his eyes betrayed a hint of disappointment.I didn't pursue the matter further. Instead, I started eating the breakfast he'd brought."Mason, haven’t you seen the news about Jethro lately?" I finally broached a subject that had

Chapter 256 Meeting in an Unexpected Place

Mason didn’t call me for the next few days. My best guess was that he was processing the news of my pregnancy. But just then, another piece of news broke the headlines—Jethro was getting married.Jethro had told me that he was going to investigate the break-in to see if it was Anna's doing, but instead of the results of that, all I got was news of their marriage. I now wondered if Jethro was just saying things for the sake of saying them.Hell, they had just announced their engagement, and already they were getting married? How was I supposed to be mentally prepared for this?Shaken, I turned off the TV. I mean, it was expected, but the timing of everything was just so hard to accept. I guess I hadn't really let go of him yet. The news soured my mood so much that I suddenly felt like going out. If I were alone, I’d only keep thinking about Jethro and his new…thing. I called Summer, and she could instantly tell that something was up with me. She told me to meet up, and I arrived at

Chapter 257 Secret No Longer

What surprised me though was that Mason was the boss of this hospital. I always assumed he was your typical trust-fund kid.Mason smiled. "I didn't know she was coming in for a check-up. I wouldn't have made her pay if I knew," he answered breezily. His eyes, when aimed at me, told a different story. They looked conflicted. Jethro was unaware, but Mason probably did: the floor I had got in the elevator from was the OB-GYN level."I didn't know you were the boss of this place," I said, trying a little too hard to dispel the awkwardness. "Sorry. I should’ve told you," Mason replied smilingly, though it was devoid of his usual flirtatious undertone.Ever since he learned that I was pregnant, he had stopped trying to woo me. It was a good thing—until I realized how much it bothered me to hear the distance in his tone. I saw him as a really good friend. I didn't want him to change his attitude because of this pregnancy, these things were simply out of my control.The elevator finall

Chapter 258 Guilt

I honestly didn't care about what other people thought now, and the look that Anna shot me just pissed me off so much. Why the hell must she always make everyone else sound like dicks and bitches?"I'm here for a health check-up," I replied coldly. "Are you unwell? Mason here’s the owner of this hospital. If you need a discount, just tell me. I’ll make my soon-to-be cousin-in-law help you out." Anna smiled smugly. Ah, throwing me a reminder that she was Jethro's girlfriend now? I didn't know what went through the men's heads when they heard her, but now was not the time for me to wonder about that. One thing was for sure—she planned to humiliate me the moment she stopped me in public. "I don't need a discount. Goodbye now.""Our wedding is next Sunday, Ms. Serena!" she called out, grinning. "We'd love to see you there if you're free to join!"Wanting to see me suffer and knowing exactly where my weaknesses lay, she dug in mercilessly. "You're out of line, Anna." Jethro snapp

Chapter 259 Jethro, Injured

"It's not you. It's me. I knew that I was never going to be with Jethro no matter how I felt, so I didn't want anyone to know. It was why I could never say yes to you."I had to tell Mason everything. Just one look at him right now made that very clear. I knew his love for me was genuine—which was why seeing him in this state alarmed me. I was once Jethro's bed partner. Even if I didn't like Jethro now, I could never fall for Mason, who was Jethro's cousin on paper but acted more like his kid brother."Enough! I don't need any more explanation from you. I'm just glad I finally know the truth after all this time. I don't… I don't have to be this idiot any longer."It was too late. Nothing I could say could help him process the hurt my secret had caused him. He probably hated me.Mason shot me one last pained look and turned away. I watched him go.He looked so abandoned, so alone.I didn't know today would come to this. I was already saddened by Jethro's latest development, and no

Chapter 260 Calling Anna to Take Jethro Home

"Just friends?! Who do you take me for, Serena? Do you think I'd believe you?!"Jethro was agitated, and his demanding glare worsened. I was furious. "Why should I care if you believe me or not?! How is it even any of your business? You're in no position to control me in any way!"Jethro understood that what I was really trying to say was that he had no right to dictate how I lived my life as he was marrying Anna. His rage intensified, and his glare became even harder, but I defiantly met his gaze.Just when I thought he was going to erupt, he suddenly collapsed on me and was fast asleep. It was as though the man who was just inches away from flying into a rage wasn't him.I watched him sleep, stunned. He was so close right now. So quiet. I might never have the chance to see him this closely anymore. I wanted to caress his cheek. I wanted to feel—I stopped myself. No matter how much I desired to be with him, I knew I couldn't. It took me so much effort to finally rein in my hea
