CHAPTER 010 - Between Family and Forever
Terakhir Diperbarui:
2025-07-01 16:10:47That was not the kind of kiss Van usually gave her. Most of the time, her husband's kisses were deep, passionate, and filled with a raw, sensual hunger— almost animalistic in their intensity— which she secretly adored. His kisses often left her breathless and yearning for more. But what he had just given her was different. It was soft, tender, and surprisingly restrained. There was a gentleness to it that caught her off guard. And before she could even fully respond, he had already pulled away, ending it too soon.
She tilted her face up to him and lovingly caressed his cheek, her fingertips grazing the sharp lines of his jaw with reverence, as if memorizing the shape of the man she adored. Her touch lingered, slow and tender, savoring the warmth of his skin.
“Are you hungry?” she asked, her voice gentle but layered with mea

ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 047 - Suspicion
Demani covered her mouth with one hand, stifling a sharp gasp as her heart pounded in her chest.Why on earth would Lily call this late at night just to ask something so personal? What business did she have prying into the private cracks of their marriage? What gave her the right to ask about things that only she and Van should be discussing?And more importantly… why did Van share it with her?Demani’s stomach twisted. She knew Lily was his best friend, had been for years. But there had to be boundaries. There should be boundaries. Their marriage issues weren’t for public consumption, and certainly not for late-night conversations with another woman; best friend or not.
ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 046 - Before the Storm Breaks
Van took the cup of coffee, turned his back, and walked out of the kitchen.Heart pounding with frustration, she followed him.“No, don’t turn your back on me, Van. What do you want me to do, huh? Cut off my family? Stop talking to them? Avoid seeing them? What exactly do you want? For me to stay locked in this house and die of boredom?”“No one dies of boredom, Demani—”“That’s not the point! What I’m trying to say is that I need to go out and distract myself when you’re not here. And I find comfort when I’m with my family! I feel supported, like I’m not alone. Unlike in this house where I’m by myself the whole day. Even in the past few days when you’ve been home, it still felt like you weren’t really here—”“I don’t want to argue with you, Demani.&rdquo
ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 045 - Not Like Before
Demani let out a quiet groan the moment she saw Van’s car parked in their driveway.She quickly paid the taxi and rushed inside the gate.As she made her way to the front door, Demani instinctively glanced down at her wristwatch. The glowing numbers read 6:45 PM. Her brows furrowed slightly.Why was Van home so early?It caught her off guard. For the past several days, since the tension between them had grown unbearable, he hadn’t been coming home until well past ten. Before all the arguments, before the distance grew between them, 7:30 PM had been his usual time, just enough for dinner and a little quiet time together.But now, it was barely a quarter to seven. H
ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 044 - The Cost of Good Intentions
There, she could no longer hold herself back. The words slipped out and so did her tears. She couldn't stop them from falling."Me? You're blaming me again?""Isn’t it true? If you truly considered my family as your own, you wouldn’t think this way about them. If you saw my cousins as part of our family, you wouldn’t react like this. You didn’t even ask me why I did it!""Fine! Then tell me. Why did you do it, Demani? Because your cousins once again pulled on your heartstrings?""Jimmy’s business was on the verge of collapsing, and it was stressing Maureen out! She’s pregnant, and if I didn’t help, she might end up giving birth and living on the street!""This is Jimmy’s fault, Demani! Even if you hadn’t said it, I already knew this happened because of his gambling. He should be the one
ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 043 - This Isn’t What They Promised
Demani removed her apron the moment she heard the sound of her husband’s car pulling into the garage. Perfect timing. She had just finished cooking and setting the table for dinner.She tossed the apron onto the clean kitchen counter, stepped into the small restroom attached to the kitchen, and quickly checked her reflection in the mirror. Once she was satisfied with how she looked, she walked out and headed toward the front door to greet Van.Just as she reached the door, it opened.She immediately put on a wide, welcoming smile— but the moment she saw the blank, unreadable expression on Van’s face, her smile vanished.Van walked in, holding his coat in one hand. He gave her the briefest glance before walking past her without a word, head
ANOTHER DAY ROTTING IN VAIN CHAPTER 042 - A Letter Meant for Her
“I still can’t believe you actually hired me to work here in your company,” Lily said, shaking her head with a small, incredulous laugh. She stood by his desk, arms crossed loosely, her eyes scanning the office in amusement and mild awe. “Honestly, I thought you were just joking when you offered me the job.”Van glanced up from the papers he was signing, the corners of his mouth lifting into a small smile. There was a glint of fondness in his eyes; half amusement, half nostalgia, as he looked at her.“Well,” he said, setting the pen down and leaning back in his chair, “I figured you needed something to keep you occupied while you’re here in the country. And maybe a little structure, too. You always did get bored too easily.”Lily laughed, brus
