DYLANMy eyes snapped open, and I shot up, putting my hand on my chest. My heart pounded with all the adrenaline rush, and I was sweating profusely.I could feel hot tears prick my eyes as if I had been crying, and I had this inexplicably overwhelming feeling of grief I couldn't explain.I looked around the room, suspicion and paranoia clouding my senses. I took a deep sigh of relief when I realized I was in my bedroom, the sun shining brightly through the window.It was just a dream.For a moment, I thought I had really died in my sleep. It was all just in my head, and the relief it gave me was overwhelming.I rubbed my eyes with my hands, yawning. Lord, my head throbbed painfully, as if it had been smashed with a sledgehammer.I realized I was wearing my white bathrobe in bed, something I never did. Events that had occurred the previous night suddenly replayed in my mind, making my head ache even more.I looked around the room again. Alena wasn't on the couch, and I was on the bed!

Chapter 183

DYLAN"What do you mean by you're leaving?""Exactly what I said. Look, it's not like I'm leaving permanently. It's just temporary. I'll be back in a few days, weeks, or whatever. I don't know yet, but right now I know that I need to leave," she told me, looking at me with a painful sincerity in her eyes.I sat back in my chair and looked up, covering my eyes with my hands as I laughed bitterly to hide my pain and misery. She was leaving me."I thought it'd be better to inform you first before leaving so that you wouldn't think I ran away."I leaned back and stared at her. Her eyes softened. She damn well knew she was smashing my poor heart into meaningless, tiny pieces."You're leaving me," I whispered, my own voice betraying me."I'm not. I'm simply giving us both a break we need.""But I don't need a break from you. For goodness sake, Alena, we don't have to do this. Why are you doing this?""I have to do this for me, Dylan. I need space after everything that has happened between u

Chapter 184

DYLAN"We already talked about this, Dylan. Please, let me go."I broke our hug after a few more seconds and tried to kiss her on her lips, but she moved her lips away. I settled for a small kiss on her forehead instead. It was more than enough at this moment."Take care of yourself, honey. I'll call you to check on you. I love you very much. No matter what happens, my heart belongs to you. Till death do us apart, my love."She looked me in the eyes one last time, and she gave me a weak smile. "Take care. I'll see you soon."And with those words, she left. I watched her leave; my face flushed. She didn't say it back. She didn't tell me that she loved me, and that fact made my heart bleed with pain. When would I finally hear her say those three words again?I walked back into the house in misery, battling with my own thoughts about this entire mess and how I'd be able to clean it up. I'd have to make a few phone calls to find out who she was staying with. It was either one of our frien

Chapter 185

DYLANI'd look carefully into everything later, once I came back home. For now, I only needed the address. I put the envelope in a drawer where I kept some of my important documents and my journal.I just felt like writing something down before leaving. I sat on the bed with the journal and pen in my hand. It was a gift from Alena, and it was dear to me.I ended up writing her a letter in my journal. It was short, sweet, and heartfelt. I'd make sure she read it once she came back home to me. I put it back in the drawer once I was done and took my phone, then I headed downstairs.I met Elizabeth in the main lounge before I left. She seemed like she had been waiting for me, worriedly lacing her kind face. I hadn't seen her since this morning."Morning, Elizabeth. How are you this morning?" I greeted her, giving her a small hug."Not good, really. Are you okay, Dyl? Harry helped carry you onto the bed early this morning. You didn't even move. Is everything okay?""I'm okay, Elizabeth. I

Chapter 186

DYLANI grabbed it standing up and smashed it onto the floor. It shattered loudly into multiple tiny pieces, and the red liquid spilled onto the floor. "I'm not here to play games with you, okay? Don't you think you've gone a little too far?" I barked.Hank laughed bitterly, looking at the shattered bottle. It must have cost him a fortune. "I'll let it slide because I'm in a good mood. I have more for this event anyway," he scoffed, giving me a death glare."I'm sick and tired of you and your games. Let's talk about this once and for all and end this madness. You went too far this time around and ruined something special to me."Hank smirked. "I believe you saw the footage. That was one of Gwen's gifts for playing the biggest role in ruining your marriage. She should have been part of this conversation, but she passed out. How did you feel after seeing me fuck your ex? The power of women is incredible, huh? Look how she managed to turn your loyal and oh-so-perfect wife against you. Ha

Chapter 187

ALENAI crawled into Mom's bed like I used to when I was a small child, kicking off my pumps in the process. She was sitting upright in her pyjamas, looking at me with soft eyes full of love. I joined her in her warm blankets and cuddled up with her, burying my face in her chest."Oh, my baby," Mom cooed, brushing my hair gently with her fingers. "It's okay, Cora.""I'm sorry I woke you up," I mumbled, holding onto her gently. At this point, I was an emotional mess and I could break down for the hundredth time this day at any moment."It's okay, my love. I understand. I don't mind having you here."In my moment of distress, the only person I had thought of calling was Mom. She had been married for over twenty years and she probably had faced something like this before. Maybe she'd help me calm down and sort out my feelings. Maybe she'd share her experience with me and help me with this heartbreaking problem I was facing in my marriage, a marriage I had put all my heart into.I had alr

Chapter 188

ALENANo! That didn't sound like the man I had fallen in love with. There had to be some misunderstanding or a mix up. He wouldn't dare crush my heart like that. He said he loved me and he proved it in every way possible. I trusted him blindly, but this was a test that had put everything on the line.There was silence for a couple of minutes as I covered my eyes with my hands and let my tears wash away all the feelings of anger and bitterness in me. I knew he was as shattered as I was. I could see an image of his face in my mind with tears in his eyes as he begged me to stay. It just made my heart ache for both of us.Was I being too hard on him? I was supposed to trust him and stand by him, but I had doubted him in my state of confusion and anger. Was I the one at fault here or the situation was to blame?Mom gave me a box of tissues which were really of great use at the moment. I had to let myself go without holding back for any reason. I believed it was an important process for me

Chapter 189

ALENAMom gave me another peck on my forehead. "Anytime, baby. Let me get you something for your migraine while you call Dyl. I'm sure he's going to jump with joy when your name pops up on his screen," Mom said with a contagious chuckle. I chuckled lightly, imagining his reaction from Mom's perspective.He was the type to pick up on the first ring. I wanted to be prepared before calling him. He'd definitely think of me as a crazy woman. I had left him a few hours ago and now I was running back to him already.It was a fact that I couldn't stay away from him for long. I was so used to being by his side that being without him felt wrong and it felt like I wasn't in the right place.I felt angry at both of us for various reasons. I definitely didn't want to fight with Dylan like that, but I couldn't control myself either. I lost control totally and I felt like it was maybe too much and kinda over the top.I took my phone from my purse and dialled his number. I took a deep breath as it st

Chapter 190

ALENAFrom the second I heard those words going forward, I was shaking and stuttering incoherent words as Mom changed into something appropriate and drove us to the hospital where they had taken him.I couldn't believe it. I was in a state of inexplicable denial and shock. My tears were stuck in my eyes. I couldn't shed them because of the confusion in my mind and the denial I was in.I didn't know how to react or how to express myself. I had to see it for myself first because I couldn't believe it. He wouldn't do that to me, right? He'd never let anything happen to me and leave me all alone.He knew I couldn't live without him. His life wasn't just his, but mine as well. He was my heartbeat. Yes, I loved him that much. Leaving me meant he was snatching away my heart, ripping it out of my chest ruthlessly and taking it with him. No, he'd never put me through so much pain."Alena, are you listening to what I'm saying? You have to be strong, honey. I know how this feels, trust me, but y

Chapter 191

ALENAI woke up with an excruciatingly painful migraine, throbbing around my red and puffy eyes that stung like never before. Even stretching myself was painful, and it strained my sore muscles as I tried to sit up.I knew where I was perfectly well and what I was doing there. How could I forget when it had given me massive heartbreak and even followed me in my dreams to creep me out and haunt me?I was disturbingly shaken, agonized, and scared of what the future held for me. Was my fate that bad that I had to be my husband's widow before we had even been in marriage for a year and before producing our offspring?At least when I woke up, Mom was by my side, holding my hand with tears in her eyes. She was supporting me, giving me all her love and attention. She helped me sit up and stretch my sore muscles a bit. She was the most supportive person at this moment.There was a nurse in there as well, asking me a few questions softly and giving me some bitter-tasting liquids and pills. I a
