~ANNIKA~

As I slowly got out of bed, I noticed a slight improvement in my condition, although the ache from the previous day still lingered.

I attributed this slight boost to the deep sleep I had just woken up from.

A yawn escaped my lips as I turned to face the room, and my eyes widened in surprise to see the same man still sitting beside me.

He was the one who had rescued me from those thugs and brought me to the hospital.

I couldn't help but wonder why he was still here, watching over me with an air of quiet concern.

Didn't he have somewhere else to be, something more important to attend to?

His presence seemed almost... vigilante-like.

Why was he so invested in my well-being?

"Good morning, hope you had a great rest?"

He approached me with a calm and curious tone, his eyes noticing my wincing expression on the bed.

"Yes, I did, thanks to the sedative the doctor gave," I replied, my voice still laced with a hint of pain.

"Are you still here?" I asked, raising an

  • COMEBACK OF THE REJECTED WIFE.    CHAPTER 54: ANGELO'S MOM.

    ~ ANNIKA ~ I got my babies settled for the night after explaining everything to them. Noteverything, per se. Mainly my reasons forcalling Angelo a dangerous man. I knew it waswrong of me to accuse him of things he didn'tdo, but that was all I could do to get them offmy case. It wasn't as if he was innocent. Though it took more than just weaving tales and looking serious, to convince them, I did a feat not everyone would boast of. So, after I tucked them in for the night and called Jonathan, to check on him, I hastened over to my room to have a considerable-needed rest, something I had been craving since I arrived.I didn't know how much I wanted to relax until my head touched the pillow. It was lunchtime, and I decided to eat out, opting to leave a few minutes before the actual time, to avoid Angelo, who had been sticking around since morning. He was becoming a stubborn leech.I requested the only table overlooking the road, the one with wall-to-ceiling glass, with a gorgeous

    ~ ANNIKA ~ I stared at my phone for a long time before I placed it on the table, frowning. Puffing out a breath, I relaxed on the sofa and focused on my babies, who were writing their assignments. They refused to complete their homework when I was away, stubbornly telling Julie they would only write it with me. Not that they needed my help, they just claimed my presence would help, but I knew they just wanted me back."Are you certain you can do it alone?" Julie, who was sitting next to them, asked, peering at my babies, with their heads bent, writing. She looked like she wanted to help, but they weren't giving her the chance."Yeah. We got this." Their response was confident, as always. Ever since they started school, I doubted they had ever sought my help. They were always so positive about their assignments."Really?" Julie inquired, peering at them. "I won't mind helping. I just…""You don't have to worry about us." Powell raised his head to look at her, smiling. "If you wi

    ~ ANGELO ~"What the damned hell are you doing in my office?" I seethed, turning to confront Lissa, who tried to hold my hand. "Why are you here? What did you say to Annika?" I was barely keeping my anger in check."I missed you, Ang!" she cried, clinging to my right arm and placing her head on it. "Don't you feel the same?" She peered up, sniffing."No, I don't." I removed her hand from mine and placed my palms on either side of her face. "I don't want you to stoop so low as to do something like this, Lils. You are more than that. You don't have to let your rage control you.""But I missed you!" She argued. "Please don't push me away, Ang. I missed you." She held onto my hand like it was an anchor on a stormy night, sobs wracking through her body. "We haven't gone this long without seeing each other, and it hurts.""Lils—""I'm sorry. I know you broke up with me because I was disturbing you for marriage. I won't do it again. Furthermore, I promise to be a cute little girlfrien

    ~ ANNIKA ~ "Is it about the kids? I can adopt them as mine," he hurried to say, thinking that would pave the way for him. "I swear to you I will do whatever you ask. I will go to the end of the world and even climb the highest mountain if that would make you forgive me.""What if I order you to kill yourself?" I whirled around so I didn't have to look over my shoulder while talking to him. "Will you do that? What if I charge you to give your wealth to me?" I knew he was a proud man.All the promises he made were nothing but empty ones. He just wanted to get in my pants. That was all. He doesn't love me. The only reason he still clung to me was the thrill of having me succumb. To him, I was nothing but a hard nut to crack, one he would go to every length to overpower so he could feel like a man. What he was after was the thrill of the chase and nothing more."If that's what you want." His tone was resolute. "As long as it will earn your forgiveness and put a smile on your face,

    ~ ANNIKA ~"What do you need help with?" I folded my arms, giving him a suspicious look."Missing files." Angelo gestured to his desk. "My system had a minor problem and most of my work disappeared. I just need your help in regaining them. I believe they’re somewhere. It's just…" He rubbed the back of his neck, peering at me helplessly."As a software engineer?" I frowned, wondering if he'd hit his head. "You could have called the company's software engineer. Why are you calling me when I have limited knowledge about this?" Despite my words, I walked over to his desk to check on the issue."Because I know I can trust you," his reply was filled with pride.Glaring, I plopped down on his armchair, grumbling as I checked his system. "I don’t even know why you think I can do this. Computer systems are different from jewelry designs!" I glared at him."I know they are different, and also how capable you are," he stated, his gaze fixed on mine, unwavering. "You are good with computer system

    ~ ANNIKA ~"Mum!" Powell ran over to me the moment I walked into the school. They were sitting in the waiting area with the proprietress when I stepped into the school with an eager Benita in tow."Darling." I squatted to carry him in my arms, placing a kiss as I grinned. "Did you miss Mum?" I patted his hair."Of course! You were supposed to come pick us up ages ago. Why didn't you do that?" Pouting, he stared down at me, accusingly, his eyes narrowed as he watched me."I'm sorry, darling." Grinning, I got up, leaving Benita to gush over him like the fan girl she was. She sounded as if she had seen an angel with the way she squealed. Shaking my head at how childish she looked, I walked over to my darling. Pippa sat next to the proprietress, with her arms folded and a pout on her face."Darling?" I approached with care, realizing I had to thread carefully else I would get my head bitten off by my daughter, who hated it whenever I delayed taking them back, especially on days that I pro
