LOGIN*ALEXANDER*I didn't want to let her leave my house, leave my life.Stella came into my office."Mr. Graves, Miss Kate is here to see you."I shut my eyes momentarily.What now?Before I could instruct Stella to send her back, Kate entered my office."Hello, Alexander."I sighed. "Stella, excuse us."Stella nodded sharply and left."I've told you countless times that I do not want to see you anymore, Kate. You made my wife suspicious of me until today.How many times must I say that I had nothing to do with that? I told you we were friends. I've told you I don't know why she got the wrong impression about us.I let out a sigh.Was Sienna claiming that I was having an affair so that she could go be with Edgar?Why are you here?It's my birthday today. Could you come to the mall with me and buy me something?"No," I replied.Alexander, please. I'm not even feeling too well today."I looked at her carefully.She indeed appeared unwell.What has that got to do with me?" I asked.Why are y
*SIENNA*"Yes.""I simply can't grasp it, but I won't push you.""You deserve more than me, Edgar. Please let me go," I said, then spun around and departed.If his heart wasn't with me... I would have settled for friendship gladly.But I knew I shouldn't ask.I truly wished he'd discover a special woman, someone who would treasure and look after him.Julian's face crossed my thoughts and I recalled how warmly she had discussed him.I gasped.Oh my!And she had the opportunity to pass Edgar my number since he was so determined to speak with me, but she didn't. That could only indicate one thing.Julian was falling for him.I came to a standstill.I knew Edgar was kind, but there was such an enormous age gap between them, and on top of that, he had feelings for me.Julian would suffer if she allowed herself to love him.I knew firsthand the agony of caring for someone who loved someone else.It was unbearable.************************************A week had passed and Alexander was sti
*SIENNA VALE*Did he kick her out temporarily before he finalized our divorce?He carried me into the house and I couldn't help but rest against him.Daisy hurried up to us."Welcome home, Mrs. Graves.I smiled at her while Alexander nodded.He climbed the stairs and entered our bedroom... no, his bedroom now.He set me on the bed.I...He paused and simply looked at me.I sat there waiting for him to go on."I made lunch already for you two," Daisy said, stepping in.I have somewhere to be," Alexander declared.Okay. Do you want anything special for dinner?" Daisy inquired."My schedule's jam-packed. I doubt I'll make it home for dinner. Watch over Mrs. Graves and call me if anything comes up."I rolled my eyes.Are we not supposed to be getting divorced today?"I'm going now. Do you have something to say to me?" Alexander asked me.Well... we could address the divorce when he got back.I nodded and walked off the room."I really hope you two can sort things out," Daisy saidIt was l
*SIENNA* I'm pretty sure when I get home, he'll have the divorce papers waiting for me.I wanted to end this marriage too...It had exhausted me both mentally and physically...Clara wound a thick scarf around my neck and then we stepped out of the hospital building.We passed through the tall gates of the hospital and spotted Kate standing there in a white furry jacket.I wasn't in any mood to deal with her, so I kept walking with Clara."Sienna, are you really going to act like you don't see me?" she called out.My steps stopped. I slowly turned around. "Can't you just leave me alone?" I asked, keeping my voice steady.I just wanted to remind you not to use your babies' death as leverage to keep Alexander.Clara stepped toward her.So you're Kate?" She said coldly.Yes. Who the hell are you?""Someone who's about to teach you about decency." And then she slapped Kate across the face.You witch..." Kate gasped, clutching her cheek."The only witch here is you. Aren't you exhausted f
*SIENNA*Tears streamed down my face.No!Daisy hugged me tightly. You need to calm down, Mrs. Sienna. Please, calm down.My babies… they’re gone…I didn’t even believe it…No!“I need to see my babies!” I shouted, I gathered every bit of strength I had and yanked the IV from my hand.Warm blood trickled down my arm, but I didn’t care.I had to see them… right now.How could they be gone… my little ones?They were in my belly… The doctors had said they were growing strong and healthy.I had been dreaming of holding them.They were everything… the only reason life ever felt bright.No… I couldn’t let it be.I kept struggling with Daisy, desperate, until Alexander gripped my shoulders firmly. The twins… they’re gone. You have to accept it,” he said, and the words crushed me.My heart had been shattered. No… my babies…” I cried. The pain was unbearable.*ALEXANDER*The doctors came and gave her sedatives to help her sleep and prevent her from hurting herself.Some minutes later, the room w
