~ ANNIKA ~

All the blood drained from my face, and my heart stuttered before it began to pound in my chest. I clenched my fists, trying to catch my breath, but the air felt thin.

"They're my children, aren't they?" Angelo demanded, his voice hard. "You lied to me, Annika. You told me they weren't mine! You made me believe my babies were dead!"

"And?" I crossed my arms, glaring at him. "Even if they are yours, what will you do? Accuse me of keeping you from them? Fight for kids you wanted to get rid of?"

I was surprised by my own outburst, but I quickly masked it. The anger I felt was far greater than my fear. "Why are you acting like you care when you don't?" I yelled, finally letting all my bottled-up emotions out. "We both know you don't. You're a bloody hypocrite, Angelo!"

"What the hell are you talking about?" He took a step back, gulping as he watched me with narrowed eyes. "Why are you accusing me of something I didn't do? Why would I want my kids dead?"

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 82: A CHORE.

    ~ ANNIKA ~ My heart was heavy as I returned to Angelo's house. I had to leave that night. Hearing those words from Jonathan made me want to reach out and kiss him, but I couldn't do that. Despite how much I wanted to throw all caution to the wind and let our passion run wild, I couldn't. It would feel like I cheated on him.I stayed in the car for close to an hour, thinking of Jonathan's confession. I wondered if I would have gone through with my plans for revenge if he had told me this a month ago. Would I have given up everything just to be with him?I think the answer would be yes. I admired Jonathan. There wasn't anything I could fault about him. Dating him would be like a dream come true. The only problem was how that dream got dashed by my thirst for revenge. I was too deep into this and realized it would be difficult to get out until I had done everything I planned. Not only to Angelo, but to Lissa and his mother. My family would be next after I had taken care of them. With

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 81: I HAVE LOVED YOU EVER SINCE.

    ~ ANNIKA ~ I stayed up late speaking with Jonathan. It had been days since I last saw him, so he wanted to fill the void my absence had created. He was like a clingy kid who refused to let go. I held a glass of wine in hand as we watched the stars. It was a clear night, with beautiful stars glittering in the moonless sky. The soft breeze blowing from our garden gave the night a fragrant smell. I could even taste the flowers in the air. Sitting on the double swings and observing the sky, with glasses in our hands, gave me the most wholesome feeling ever."This has always been my dream," Jonathan muttered beside me, swinging slowly. "If only I could pause the moment and live in it forever."I stopped scanning the sky and turned to glance at him, to see his expression. It was one of contentment. He looked as if he had gotten everything he ever wanted, and more. He took a sip of his wine and turned to look at me. His beautiful green eyes sparkled, telling stories his lips couldn't.

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 80: SPEND THE NIGHT.

    ~ ANGELO ~My phone rang the moment I stepped out of the office, as if the caller was keeping tabs on me, waiting for me to leave. After Annika left, I returned to my work and buried my head in the workload. I didn't think of anything until I had completed all my tasks, which meant staying way past normal closing time.There was no need for me to rush home. Annika wasn't returning that night. She told me she would spend the night with her babies and that damned Jonathan, a reason I focused on work so I could take my mind off them. I didn't want my thoughts to keep filtering toward Annika and Jonathan. I knew she wouldn't cheat. That wasn't something Annika would do.Fishing my phone out of my pocket, a frown marred my features when I saw who it was. I considered not answering until she called for the second time. Puffing out a breath and preparing my mind, I answered it."Lissa?" I kept my voice as pleasant as I could, so she wouldn't hear the displeasure in my tone."Ange... lo," she

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 79: CCTV FOOTAGE TAMPERED.

    ~ ANNNIKA ~ "It was tampered with," Jonathan said, walking over to me. "You were right. Someone toyed with the routing wires and cables. And before you ask about the CCTV, I checked it, but we couldn't find anything. You parked your car out of range of the camera, so it didn't capture anything." He plopped down next to me, placing his bag on the table."Impossible," I muttered, sitting up on the couch. "How did... Why?" Hearing that someone tampered with my car when I went to have lunch left me speechless. I couldn't even think of the proper question to ask."That's what I'm worried about." He reached out and removed strands of hair from my face. "Is there anyone you suspect? Someone you think did this?" He stared into my eyes, his gaze unwavering. "We can't just brush this off as nothing. For someone to tail you and toy with your car, they must have planned this.""That's the problem." I got up from the couch and paced the floor, biting my right index finger as I thought back to eve

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 78: MY CAR!!!

    ~ ANNIKA ~ My food arrived 10 minutes after I placed the order, and I hurriedly ate it while checking the time. The last thing I needed was to arrive at their school late. I wanted to avoid getting my ears chewed off by my babies, who always complained about how late I was to pick them up. They loved it whenever Jonathan picked them up because he was always on time. Not only that, but he takes them for ice cream each time. And that right there was the main reason. Unlike Jonathan, I hardly take them out for ice cream unless I've promised them beforehand.I exited the restaurant after tipping the server and security man by the door, humming as I walked over to my car. I still had 10 minutes to rush over to their school. Having eaten for 30 minutes, I had to use 5 minutes to rest.Close to my car, I noticed something odd. There were handprints on the side of my door, like someone had leaned on it. Puzzled, I squatted in front of it, my hand instinctively going to the tire. I ch

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 77: AREN'T WE FRIENDS.

    ~ ANNIKA ~"You're right." He nodded, passing my phone back. "I didn't think much about the venue when I picked it. Being in the city center, it was the first choice because of the distance from the company. I didn't consider the impact on the theme. This is the right choice. How did you come up with such an outstanding place?" He sounded proud, his eyes sparkling as he smiled at me. "You're a damned genius, Annika. The best in the entire world.""I didn't do that." I forced a smile. "That was all Grace. Even though I noticed how flashy the hotel you chose would be, I wasn't the one who suggested the hotel in the countryside. She did."I've never been comfortable taking praise meant for someone else. Telling him it was Grace who had the idea was the least I could do for my friend."Oh, Grace." He had a bite of his fries, his face in a thoughtful frown. "Why didn't she present it to me when she noticed it? Why go through you?" He looked confused, his face scrunching up further as he
