After the Third Time Chapter 10
Henry's gaze was icy as he looked at Melanie."I've told you before that I'm only getting back with Selena. She's the one I've always loved, and that's never changed."Melanie's composure shattered, and she burst into tears."How can you say you don't love me when you divorced her three times because of me? You filled me with hope over and over, only to cruelly smash it now. Henry, you're the worst of them all!"She pointed at me, her words laced with malice."What does she have that I don't? I've known you longer, and I'm a better fit to be your wife! It should be me and the child that you love the most!"A look of revulsion flickered in Henry's eyes."Who's the real father of that child you're carrying? Did you think I was clueless? You tried to pin this kid on me and you've failed."I was willing to overlook this for your father's sake, but you crossed the line by messing with my wife! I'm taking back everything I've given you!"Fear finally crept into Melanie's eyes."No,

I could not bring myself to believe Melanie's accusations. Ever since Henry and I patched things up, he had been by my side every single day, never once straying.We were in the honeymoon phase of our renewed love, and I refused to condemn him based on Melanie's biased account.I needed to hear the truth about him and Melanie straight from his lips.However, as I waited for the man who promised a quick return, he was nowhere to be found.The only thing that came was his text.[I'm sorry, Selena. I got tied up with something. Just hang tight at home for me.]Meanwhile, Melanie sent a photo from an unknown number.It was a snapshot of Henry's back, and her message was a punch to the gut.[Selena, looks like I've beaten you again. Remember what you promised, and give my husband back!]Tears spilled down my cheeks once more.Was it all a sham? Were his efforts to win me back nothing but a charade?I would not let him off the hook!However, as I wiped away my tears and started t

Henry gazed at my belly, his voice quivering with disbelief. "You mean… Is this our baby?"I took his hand and placed it softly on my stomach. "Go on, say hi to the little one, daddy."Henry's tears came out of nowhere, catching me off guard.In the next instant, I was wrapped up in his arms again."Selena, I'm so sorry for all the pain I've caused you. Can you ever forgive me?"Liam kept quiet when he learned about Henry and I patching things up. However, the following day, I discovered he had moved out of the apartment.He left behind a note.[Congratulations, you've finally got the baby's dad back. I'm heading to Swalden for work. This place belonged to my sister, and now that you're not alone, I can take care of my own stuff with peace of mind.]He had sketched a cute little smiley face at the bottom of the note.With a sense of dread, I called Wren.After a brief silence, Wren tried to sound upbeat."Don't worry, my brother's a grown man. He knows what he's up to. Hey,

Henry, in a state of panic, waved his hands desperately."Selena, calm down. It's not good for the baby. If you don't want to see me, I'll get out of your way. I promise I won't show up again! Please don't be mad!"He scurried behind a tree, but not before adding, "Check out the cafeteria's private room later. I left your favorite cheese pasta there. Make sure you go!"My heart was pounding, and I could not rein in my emotions.What was he thinking? Was he not supposed to marry Melanie? Why abandon her and come all the way to United Germland to find me?At the cafeteria, I dodged the private room and picked a random spot in the main area.Staring at the food behind the glass, my stomach turned. I could not eat.However, Henry's words about the cheese pasta haunted me. Real Itanian dishes were a rarity there.It had been ages since I had had pasta.With a sigh, I grabbed a piece of steak and headed back to my table.To my surprise, there was a box of hot pasta waiting for me a
After the Third Time Chapter 6
The dream of attending United Germland University had been on my mind for ages.If I had not married Henry, I would already be walking its hallowed halls.However, marriage did not put a stop to my education.Thankfully, my determination paid off. After love let me down, I could still make my way back to the university I had always adored.Pregnancy meant more paperwork.However, Liam was there, helping me through it all.When Wren found out, she dropped a bombshell on me."Selena, you know, my brother's always had a thing for you. If you hadn't rushed into marriage with Henry three years back, he might've spilled his heart to you."I was shocked, struggling to take in her words."Don't worry about it, though. Even if he didn't have feelings for you, he'd never leave you hanging. You're my best friend, after all."That gave me some comfort."You've got it wrong, Wren. We're just as we were a decade ago. He's like a brother to me!"Wren let out a long sigh. "Selena, I wish y

Liam let out a soft laugh and playfully tousled my hair. "Selena, it's been ten years. You've grown distant from me!"I pretended to be annoyed and pushed his hand away. "Ugh, you've ruined my hair again!"It was as if we had been transported back to the days when the three of us were thick as thieves.Once my fever recovered, Liam stuck by my side, helping me pick up all the essentials I needed to get by.At one point, he mentioned offhandedly, "While you were asleep, some guy named Henry called for you... He sounded kind of ticked off. Do you need to call him back?"I paused, a bit taken aback, but quickly offered Liam a reassuring smile. "He's nobody important. Let's just forget about him."There was a time when I would not dream of missing a call from him, but then, it seemed like none of that mattered anymore.As time went on, Liam and I rekindled our old closeness, reminiscent of the bond we shared a decade ago.He was even there for me at my prenatal appointments.When
