Chapter 46

Marinel's POV

AFTER WE bathed, we decided to take a walk while waiting for the sun to set. The place was serene—nothing but the sound of the river and the rustling of leaves around us. Caldwill held my hand as we wandered deeper into the woods, following a barely visible trail covered in fallen leaves and wildflowers.

"Where are we going?" I asked, curious.

He grinned. "I don't know. Just walking. As long as you're with me, anywhere's fine."

I rolled my eyes, but deep down, my heart fluttered at how sincere he sounded. After a few more minutes of walking, we stumbled upon a small, weathered hut nestled between thick bushes and towering trees. The roof was partly covered in vines, and the wooden door creaked as Caldwill gently pushed it open.

“Looks abandoned,” he said, peeking inside.

Dust covered most of the surfaces, but it wasn’t filthy—just forgotten. There was an old woven mat on the floor, a small window with tattered curtains, and a makeshift bench by one wall.

    Chapter 61Marinel's POV THE NEXT DAY, I decided to take the morning off to spend more time with Clayd. After what happened with Moana, I couldn’t shake the heavy feeling in my chest. But Caldwill insisted I rest, even though he had hospital rounds.“I’ll be back before lunch,” he said, kissing my forehead. “Stay home. Rest. Be with Clayd.”I nodded, pretending to be okay. “Be careful.”By midmorning, Clayd was napping, and I was curled up on the couch with my planner when my phone rang. It's an unknown number.I answered without thinking. “Hello?”A familiar voice hissed from the other line.“You just can’t stop, can you?”I stood up immediately. “Moana?”“Stay away from Caldwill.”I swallowed hard. “I’m not doing anything wrong. I’m his wife. I’m the mother of his child. I have every right to be here.”“Don’t play the victim. You’re manipulating him using that child. You walked away once. Why do you think you can come back now like nothing happened?”“I didn’t walk away!” I snapped

    Chapter 60Marinel's POVEARLY in the morning, I happened to wake up early before my alarm clock in my phone started to ring. I moaned and stretched my arms. I yawned and checked my phone. Lorna sent me the schedule for today's check up with my patients.I glanced at Caldwill who's still sleeping peacefully. I smiled. My heart flutters whenever I think this is the start of our happy family. I leaned closer to give Caldwill a good morning kiss then climbed out of the bed, heading to the bathroom to clean myself. After that I dressed up, since some of my clothes are still in his closet and that made me smile. Because I really thought he threw them away when he sent me off out of his life.When I got out, Caldwill's finally awake. He's leaning on the headboard of the bed while crossing his arms. His brows furrowed.“Where are you going?” he asked, checking me out from head to toe.I adjusted the hem of my dress. “Work. I need to be there at the clinic today,” I answered casually while

    Chapter 59Marinel's POV AFTER our steamy moment, I slipped into one of his oversized t-shirts and paired it with a pair of denim shorts."Swagger," Caldwill teased as he dressed as well."Hurry up, I'm starving," I called out, heading out of the room and down the stairs ahead of him.At the bottom of the stairs, I found Ivan, Ester, a few other staff members, and..."Jill?" I blurted out in surprise, recognizing the woman standing among them. She was Clayd’s private tutor for his homeschooling. What a coincidence!"Ma’am Marinel? You’re Doc’s wife? Si—" Before she could finish, I quickly clamped my hand over her mouth."Don’t say a word. It’s a surprise, okay?" I whispered urgently. She nodded, wide-eyed."What’s going on?" Caldwill’s voice came from behind me, his tone curious."Oh, nothing," I replied quickly, forcing a casual smile. He gave me a questioning look but let it go."Ester, please serve our dinner," he requested, his arm slipping around my waist as he guided me into th

  • BUT ONLY LOVE CAN TELL (ENGLISH VERSION)   Chapter 58

    Chapter 58Marinel's POV Caldwill lifted me effortlessly, his strong arms cradling my body as he laid me gently on the bed. His eyes, darkened with a mixture of desire and tenderness, locked onto mine. Without another word, he climbed on top of me, his lips brushing away the lingering tears on my cheeks. I closed my eyes, breathing in his familiar, intoxicating scent.Our mouths found each other in a fierce, unrestrained kiss, tongues tangling in a dance of passion. It felt wild, almost desperate, as if we were making love for the first time, rediscovering each other’s taste and touch. Fear, anxiety, and sadness melted away, replaced by a hunger that had been simmering beneath the surface for too long. I had missed him— his touch, his warmth, the way his hands explored mine like he was trying to memorize every inch of my body.Caldwill’s lips trailed down my jawline while removing my clothes. His lips planted soft, searing kisses along my neck, making me shiver. His hand slid up my s

  • BUT ONLY LOVE CAN TELL (ENGLISH VERSION)   Chapter 57

    Chapter 57Marinel's POV WHILE we were on the road, I remained silent, my mind racing with a whirlwind of emotions. Even Caldwill was quiet, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. I turned my gaze to the window, resting my elbow against it as I nervously bit down on my index finger. I could feel the tears building up again, threatening to spill over. I hated Moana with every fiber of my being. She ruined my life. If it weren't for her, my child would have a happier, more peaceful life. We would be a happy family. I wiped the tears from my cheeks, frustration bubbling in my chest.Caldwill is with her! That thought alone twisted my insides with rage. Yes, maybe he didn’t know the full extent of her betrayal, but the way Moana glared at me, full of venom, suggested she had been in his life for a long time."Nel," Caldwill finally spoke, his voice a hesitant whisper."Shut up!" I snapped, my voice trembling with barely controlled anger."Marinel, please. I didn’t know—"He pulle

    Chapter 56Marinel's POV “SO?” Andy’s voice snapped me back to reality.“Hi?” I replied awkwardly, noticing how he straightened up from leaning against the wall, a mischievous grin spreading across his face.“G.A.S.,” he said, taking a swig from his drink.“G.A.S.?” I echoed, furrowing my brow in confusion.“Glow. After. Sex.” He chuckled, clearly amused by my reaction. “Or, as some say, it’s actually ‘made love’ glow.” He winked, and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes, feeling my cheeks heat up.“Have you two talked already?” he asked as he offered me his arm to help me down the stairs. I nodded, clinging to his arm for balance.“Yes, we talked. Had a dramatic, tear-filled scene, actually. We finally understood each other. It’s just frustrating, you know? We wasted three years because of his stubbornness. But the damage is done, Andy. What matters now is the present.” I sighed, feeling the weight of those lost years but also the lightness of finally being on the same page.He nodded,
