LOGINAdrian and Evelina's Mansion
Adrian arrived home later than he normally would after visiting the center, but he knew that he could not reveal that secret to anyone. So, he thought of the excuse he had already prepared in his mind, he walked into his home, only to see that Evelina was already waiting for him. Surely, he was late for dinner, but he already had an explanation ready.
“My goodness, Adrian, where were you? You're home late” she said as she
A Few Days LaterOver the next few days, the tension between Evelina and Adrian had become noticeable. Adrian had become even more grumpy in his office, while Evelina was becoming distant, choosing not to speak to him for days at a time. At dinner, she would not even sit at the same table and eat with Adrian.Neither of them seemed willing to make the first move. Whenever they found themselves in the same room, the silence between them was almost unbearable. Evelina would pretend to be busy with something else, while Adrian would bury himself in his work, even though he was clearly aware of her presence.Luckily for Evelina, the café was doing great, and business was running smoothly. She had made her way to the supermarket to grab a few things before heading home for the day, but she already knew that the drive home with Adrian would be slightly uncomfortable, as neither of them would converse with one another like they had been doing ov
Adrian immediately ran off to the center as soon as he received a call that something was wrong. At that moment, he did not care that he had left Evelina at the restaurant by herself or that he had pulled his driver out of the vehicle so that he could drive to the center. Luckily for Adrian, when he arrived there, the nurses had already handled everything.But the one thing he could not handle was how he would explain himself to Evelina after leaving her in such a way.Adrian had repeatedly tried to call her on the phone, but she had declined his calls and later switched off her phone. Luckily for Adrian, he had gotten through to his driver, who told him that the two of them had gotten a taxi back home.Even though Adrian was relieved that Evelina was home safely, he knew that he had a lot of explaining to do, which meant that he would ultimately have to lie because he could not tell Evelina the truth about why he had gone to the center.Although the two of them had promised not to li
Adrian and Evelina's MansionThe meeting with Rosalina had not gone exactly how Evelina had expected it to. In fact, after speaking to Rosalina, she left with more doubts than before. She regretted visiting the woman in the first place because instead of helping her understand the situation, the conversation had only put more doubts into her mind regarding Adrian. Now, Evelina was beginning to think that he could be hiding something from her... something that could ruin the relationship the two of them were trying to build.Evelina was tired, but she knew she needed to take a break. Otherwise, she would just drive herself crazy with all the questions running through her mind. As soon as she walked into the house, she saw that Adrian was already home, and he was standing there looking at her with a small smile."Oh, Adrian, what are you doing here? Why aren't you supposed to be at work?" she asked, genuinely surprised that Adrian had left work ea
Adrian and Evelina's MansionAdrian arrived home later than he normally would after visiting the center, but he knew that he could not reveal that secret to anyone. So, he thought of the excuse he had already prepared in his mind, he walked into his home, only to see that Evelina was already waiting for him. Surely, he was late for dinner, but he already had an explanation ready.“My goodness, Adrian, where were you? You're home late” she said as she approached him, worry evident in her tone of voice.Adrian remained relaxed and smiled at her.“It's okay, honey. I was at the office. We had quite a lot of work to do, so I thought it was best that I stayed late and finished some of it,” he explained with a bright smile on his face.Evelina stared at him as though she was studying his expression carefully.“You were at work?” she asked. “At the office?” she added.Adrian nodd
Adrian and Evelina's MansionAs soon as Adrian walked into the house, he saw that Evelina was waiting for him in the living room. She looked quite nervous, but the moment she saw him, a look of relief appeared on her face as she quickly walked up to him.“So, what happened? What did he say?” she asked in rapid succession.Just like that, Adrian smiled.“Basically, you don’t need to worry about that man ever again. I went to meet him at the bar where he requested us to meet, and honestly, it seemed as though it was the only thing he wanted from me. Once I agreed to get Bridget released from jail, he didn’t care much about Noah. In fact, he had not even bothered to talk about Noah,” Adrian explained.“Yeah, that sounds like my ex. He would go out of his way for that woman but not for his son. Honestly, I would have given him a chance to visit his son from time to time, but it seemed as though h
“Adrian, why would you ask me such a question in the first place?” Evelina was quick to question him while Adrian looked directly into her eyes, desperately wanting an answer to the question he had asked her only a few minutes ago.“Evelina, just answer the question. Are you still in love with your ex-husband?” he asked. This time, he was much firmer. His heartbeat quickened as he impatiently waited for Evelina’s answer. He watched her carefully as she let out a loud breath before resting her hands on her hips.“Of course I do not have any feelings for that man. You and I both know what he did to me and how he discarded our son, so why would I still have feelings for him?” Evelina responded.Only then did Adrian calm down. He did not know how to describe what he was feeling for Evelina, but what he did not want was for her ex-husband to come back into the picture and then take her away from him.“That’
