Janet's Point of View

I was deep in sleep when I felt someone clinging to me. I tried to kick Rowan's hand off me but it held me very strong.

I jolted awake, my heart racing as I reached for the lamp on the table near our bed. The soft light flooded the room, and what I saw made my blood run cold.

Rowan was sweating heavily, his body thrashing beside me like he was fighting an invisible enemy. His face was twisted in pain and fear, completely different from the cold, controlled man I knew.

"No… not again," he muttered, his voice trembling. "Don’t leave me… please, don’t leave me. I can’t lose another one… not again.”

My breath caught in my throat.I recognized the signs immediately. PTSD. How had I not seen this before?

My heart pounded as I quickly moved closer to him. I helped him lose his night wear a bit as all my training kicked in, pushing away my shock and confusion.

"Rowan," I said softly, placing my hands on his shoulders. "Rowan, you're safe. You're not there anymore."

  • DIVORCED, BUT SPOILED BY MY FIVE BROTHERS    Chapter 0063

    Janet’s Point of ViewThe next Friday came faster than I expected.I stood in front of my closet, fingers brushing against hangers like I was searching for a new version of myself.I needed something that wasn’t just beautiful — something that would make me feel confident.Something that would tell the world I belonged in that room.My hand paused on a deep burgundy dress. It was Elegant and Simple. The kind of color that whispered confidence instead of shouting it.When I slipped it on and turned toward the mirror, I froze.The woman looking back wasn’t the same one who used to hide behind other people’s shadows. She looks totally different.For the first time in a long time, I felt beautiful — not because anyone said so, but because I believed it.Downstairs, Tracy was waiting. The moment she looked up from her phone, her eyes widened.“Oh. My. God. Janet!” she exclaimed, jumping to her feet. “You look incredible. Like—oh, this is not fair. You look like the woman people write love

    Janet’s Point of ViewI was just finishing up at the clinic, trying to close a few files before heading to meet Professor Collins. He’d promised to help me review my research progress, and I couldn’t wait to show him how much I’d done.But before I could reach for my bag, there was a knock at the door.“Already leaving?”The voice made me look up immediately. The voice sounds Deep,Calm and also familiar.Edward stood in the doorway — tall, composed, and holding a stack of journals and old books so high it nearly hid his face.I blinked in surprise. “Edward?”He stepped inside, his smile soft but confident. “I hope I’m not interrupting.”I shook my head. “Not at all. But… I thought you were sending your secretary.”“I was,” he said lightly, setting the books down on my desk, “but I decided I’d rather deliver them myself. Besides…” — his gaze held mine for a second longer than necessary — “I wanted an excuse to see you again.”My cheeks warmed before I could stop them. “You could’ve jus

    Janet’s Point of ViewThe past few weeks have been some of the best days of my life. Every single day felt fulfilling and meaningful — like I was finally becoming the woman I was meant to be. The real me.I was living the life I had once dreamed of, without anyone holding me down or treating me like I was less.No marriage drama. No pain.Just peace — and the slow, steady process of building something real in my career.My work as a psychologist had taken an incredible turn ever since I reconnected with Professor Collins, my former mentor from college. He had always been one of the most brilliant people I’d ever met, and now he had become my guide once again.He invited me to professional conferences and seminars — events that helped me grow as both a therapist and a researcher. But what meant the most was how he helped me revive my doctoral thesis. The one I had abandoned after marrying Rowan. The one that used to mean everything to me.Professor Collins made sure I had everything I

    Flora's Point of ViewWhen Rowan asked about my brother, I felt something freeze inside me. My whole body went stiff. I could feel the color draining from my face. I could feel my heart rate picking up, pounding fast against my ribs.I was surprised and terrified same time.Although I had promised Rowan that my brother would return soon, I had been uneasy for weeks now. The kind of uneasy that keeps you awake at night, staring at your phone, waiting for a message that never comes.My brother had been unusually distant the past month. His replies were fewer and fewer. His tone was colder when he did answer. Sometimes he didn't respond at all. I would send him messages and get nothing back for hours. Days sometimes.Yes, he was busy. I knew he had lives to save. Being a world-famous heart surgeon doesn't come in easy plates. He was always flying around doing complicated surgeries in different countries. I understood that.But this silence felt different. It felt intentional. It felt li

    Rowan's Point of ViewThe past few weeks have been torture. A total hell for me as every minute reminds me how I scattered all I have been building with Janet just out of anger. The memory of me signing those divorce papers kept playing in my head over and over again. And Janet's cold face, how she walked away without looking back. The sound of the door closing behind her. Seeing her with that gigolo minutes later was all exhausting. It all left a different pain on me, looking at it from here I'm the only one fighting for us. Seems like Janet has moved on already. I tried to bury myself in work. I thought if I just worked hard enough, if I could just focus on the company, maybe I could forget about Janet. Maybe I could forget about the baby that might have been mine. But that work couldn't help. I only messed some files up and I was working so late at night making it more difficult to concentrate during the day. A few minutes after I reviewed some media files Alex dropped for me ea

    Jasper's Point of ViewI stood by the window and watched Peter drive away with Janet in his latest Lamborghini. The car was sleek and black, moving smoothly down the street. But my hands were clenched into fists so tight my nails were digging into my palms."Shit," I said angrily, my voice coming out like a curse. "How come Janet has been through all this and she kept it all to herself?"I turned away from the window, unable to watch them disappear. My face felt hot. My jaw was clenched so hard it hurt.All this time, my sister had been suffering. All this time, she had been alone with that bastard. And she never told us. She never asked for help.Tracy was pacing back and forth in the living room, her whole body shaking with rage. Her hands were balled into fists at her sides."I think that bastard has to learn the hard way," she said, her voice trembling with barely controlled anger. "I feel like going to his office and giving him a piece of my mind. I feel like making him understan
