Chapter 151

Elena’s POV:Nicklaus Coleman. That name still rings in my head, and the memories of the past with him still replayed in my head like a fresh event. I will never let him come into my life anymore. I will do everything in my power to make him believe that Wave wasn't his son. I thought I could handle myself and be strong in front of him, but after seeing him like that and after so many years, something moved inside of me. I still managed to do it myself and not give him the satisfaction of seeing me break down.Sam overheard our last conversation. I have not really opened up to him because I wanted to forget everything that happened and move on.I don't even know how to face him anymore. I don't even know if I want to show myself at the hotel tomorrow. I changed into some comfortable clothes and collapsed on my bed. I lay my head on the pillow with my eyes fixed on the ceiling. I walked up to Wave's room and properly tucked his duvet in. I kissed him on the forehead and gently ran

Chapter 153

Elena’s POV:My eyes widened when I could recognise the person who had just saved my life from those thugs. It can’t be him. I doubted my eyes.“Nicklaus,” I called his name to see if my eyes were deceiving me.He stopped on his track and turned to look at me before he walked out of the room. He didn't say a word. Just a heartbroken look, and he disappeared. My mouth was slightly parted, and I felt a little heartbroken. I just wanted to thank him for what he did."Let's go, Elena. I will drop you off,” Sam spoke, holding my arms. “Its fine. Sam. The staff car will take me home. You should go home and get some rest,” I said softly. “Are you sure?” he asked.“Yes, Sam. Please,” I said and turned around.I grabbed my stuff and got into the staff car waiting for me outside. Throughout the whole ride, I couldn't stop thinking about what happened earlier and how Nicklaus saved me. He looked so mysterious that I could barely recognise me.Why didn't he respond when I called him? His facial

“No, no, please don't go away. Don't leave me,” I whispered in my dreams as I stirred on the bed.I saw a figure walking out on me, and I was pleading for her to stay. I cried my eyes out as I pleaded, but she walked away without looking back. Immediately, my eyes opened, and I gasped for air. My chest was rising and falling rapidly, and my mouth was dry.I sat upright when I realised that it was just a dream. The recurring nightmare that I had been getting. I wiped my sweaty forehead and allowed my breathing to be stable before walking to the bathroom. I splashed cold water on my face and inhaled deeply, trying to catch my breath. I had not had this nightmare for a long time, and I was happy that it had stopped occurring. Why then did I have it time around?“What could be going in?” I muttered silently to myself, my eyes darting around the bathroom. Does it mean that Nicklaus wants to take my child away from me? Immediately, I remembered Wave, and I stroked out of my room to his r

Chapter 155

Elena’s POV:I hurriedly walked out of the hotel room and banged the door in anger. Tears were forming in my eyes, and I was holding myself not to cry out loud.I rushed into the restroom and tried to hold my tears back. “No, Elena, you are not going to cry.”“You can’t do this; don’t cry.”Did he do it purposely to get to me? Or was that how he truly was? I couldn't understand what was going on.“How could he be so heartless? I don’t even understand how he still manages to do this. Why am I even getting angry?” I asked myself. I sniffed repeatedly and tried to calm my breath. I shouldn’t be angry. It's his lifestyle, and if he did it to piss me off, I will not give him the satisfaction that he wants. I shouldn't be getting angry or pissed at him. He is out of my life for good. Let him deal with his shit.I walked out of the restroom and decided to take a stroll to clear my head. I walked around the building, enjoying the gentle breeze to clear my thoughts and calm my mind.I didn't

Nicklaus POV:Was she having a secret affair with Alex and looking for how to be free from me? Everything is so confusing right now.

I remember when I held her hand yesterday and looked at her finger, there was no ring on it, which meant she didn't get married to him.

Chapter 157

Sarah’s POV:I woke up very early in the morning. It's been a few days since Nicklaus travelled to Oregon, and I also got devastating news that Elena had been in Oregon. I had been so restless all night long, and I couldn't sleep peacefully. I stirred on the bed when I heard my child crying, “Penelope.” I called one of the maids.She hurriedly walked into the room. "Good morning, ma'am; you sent for me,”“Go take care of that child. I do not want to hear her cry this morning,”“Right away, ma'am,” she said and hurriedly walked out of the room.I buried my head in the pillow to block away the noise from her cries. It was beginning to get annoying. I couldn't help but wonder how women manage to nurse babies again.“I can't give birth again. Not with this kind of noise,” I yelled and stepped into the bathroom.I was so angry that Nicklaus left me for Elena. What if they reconnect over there? Would that be the end of me and this marriage?I wondered to myself, but I shook my head and tr

Nicklaus’s POV: I sat on the sofa with my little daughter, Amelia, as I watched her play with her toys. She looked so adorable, and I smiled while watching her. I had been waiting for Sarah's arrival for a few hours. I couldn't believe she would leave her little daughter alone and go on with her daily business. I Sarah had been so distant with her daughter, Amelia, and she never paid attention to her. I couldn't help but wonder what sort of mother Sarah was.She would go out partying and even spend weeks on a vacation. She will always leave Amelia in the hands of a nanny. Chef Henry walked to me in the sitting room. “Mr. Nicklaus, dinner is ready,”“Perfect, thank you, Henry,” I said and turned to Amelia, “common baby girl. Are you ready to eat dinner?” I asked.“Yes, daddy. I love having you around,” she said, and I nodded my head and kissed her on the forehead.“I will always be here for you. Never forget that,” I said. “Alright, let's go eat something,” I said, holding her ha

Elena’s POV:“Thank you so much. Dinner was delicious, but I should get going,” Sam said.“Uncle Sam, wouldn't you like to stay back with us so that we can watch animation together?” Wave said as he walked to Sam, “Uh…” Sam gave me a side look, and I shook my head. “Wave, I don't think that is a good idea tonight. Your school is on holiday, but you need to go to bed early,” he spoke gently. I walked up to wave and ruffled my hands through his hair. “He is right, son. You still have to go to bed early, even if you are on holiday; you can watch whatever you want to watch tomorrow. I promise.”“But I am not feeling sleepy, mummy.” “Don't you want to grow bigger and taller like Uncle Same someday?” I asked."Yes, Mummy, I want to be bigger and taller,” he said excitedly. “Then you have to get some rest, darling.

I stirred on my bed in my deep sleep, and when I perceived some awful smell, it wafted into my nostrils. I tried to brush it off, thinking it was nothing. turned to the other side of the bed and cuddled me up when the smell became pungent and sweat was beginning to gather on my forehead and the top of my lips as my body responded.I brushed off my forehead with my palm when my eyes were opened. My eyes widened when I saw the scary sight. smoke covering the room, I could barely see. My heart raced, and I quickly turned my head to the window when I saw fire coming from outside. The flames were so thick and scary. I quickly opened my door, filled with energy, and rushed to the hallway while I was coughing and panting. Everywhere was filled with smoke, and I couldn't see clearly. My breath was beginning to cease. I rushed to wake Wave up and covered him with a wet blanket. I held him in my hands and ran to the front door. Struggling with my sight, I pushed him out to the front foot, and
