Perhaps my heart, as I was no longer able to feel it.It maysound clichéd, but it is the awful reality of my existence. I am very aware ofmy own guilt. For three years, she put up with me. Absolutely no other girl inher position would agree to it. Not even I would attempt it!Thereis nothing that she hasn’t loved me through, and she never voiced a grievance.In all honesty, I was the one who didn’t give a damn. And I only realized myerror now that she had finally given up.I don’tknow, but maybe I have fallen for her this time. I am sure I did. She hassomehow made her way into my cold heart, and now it’s full of her.“Sir!”I wasjerked out of my inner thoughts by Calvin’s excited voice. He rushed inside theroom, huffing. It seemed he did a sprint to get in here.“Youget it?” I asked and nodded firmly.“Yes,sir!” He replied, and I adjusted myself on the b
VICTORIA’S POVI don’tunderstand what is happening in my life. When I wanted Alessandro in my life,he despised me. And now, when I am trying to leave, he is pestering me in everyway to annoy me.I won’tdeny it; I am not worried about him. I have loved him for three years, andsomewhere in my heart, I still have a soft corner for him. Yet, mydetermination is not something I would give up after what he did to me.I havehad enough of his ignorance.I alsocan’t ignore him; he is in the hospital bed because of me. I was ready to takecare of him, and I tried to until Camilla walked in.I justdon’t want her anywhere near my unborn infant or me. The drama of that familyis too much to accept. That’s why I walked away.“Butnow...” A helpless sigh left my lips as I stared at my phone screen.Hesounded so weak and... sick. Maybe, I will consider visiting him this time; forthe last time? Then I will warn him not to call me ever.Yeah, Ican do that.I justdon’t want anything bad to ha
VICTORIA’S POVI hadno choice but to accompany my ex-husband to the toilet in his state ofhelplessness. It seemed so small. Well, way too small. It’s Suffocating!Lettinghim stand before the toilet seat, I turned around. “Do it.”“How amI supposed to do it if you are not helping?” He asked in a restless tone.“Whatdo you want me to do now?” I was also losing my patience as I turned to himagain.Heshook his broken arm slightly at me, making me realize the harsh fact.“Helpme take off my pants.” He said.Such anembarrassing situation. The man I want to stay away from asks me to take hispants off! Well, Maybe there is no nonsense behind it; we are still divorcedand parted ways!“Victoria?Can you please think later and do it fast? I am losing it!” He rushed me, andwithout having any choice, I stepped close to him.Myheart is racing at full speed now. The proximity to him is not so good for mewhen I have deep feelings for him.Istarted opening his pajama, highly aware of his
VICTORIA’S POVIsn’t it true that life tends to play pranks on us at the most inconvenient moments?After loving this man for three years, enduring being ignored and despised by him, and ultimately deciding to leave, he suddenly held my hand and asked me to return to him.What should I say? Could this be a joke?I froze for a while, completely confused. If it were a few days ago, I would have cried to God, thanking him for sending this man into my life.But now? I really don’t know how to act about this particular thing.Considering the past, I think staying far from this man is best for myself and my unborn child, and somehow it’s very funny in a disgusting way.I pulled my hand away from him with a mocking sneer on my lips.“Oh, my…my! Mr. Devonte, it appears that the accident has caused confusion for you regarding many things. Is this a result of your injury?” I raised an eyebrow inquiringly. “However, this is a common occurrence, so there’s no need to worry. Would you like me to su
CAMILLA’S POV“AAGHH!” How dare he say that to me! I yelled, throwing everything in my room as all the expensive things started breaking and were scattered on the ground.Blood rushed in my head as my head pounded with the words he said to me that day. Years after years, I only dreamed of getting married to Alessandro. I did everything within my power to capture him! But that bitch! Always comes my way!Ugghh, I just wanted to destroy everything that came my way!I went to grandma; I cried to her. Still, he didn’t bother to explain his behavior! Now that bitch has everything!The more I think, the more I get mad and can’t help it. Heck! I don’t want to sober up now!“Young miss! What happened?” The maid, Sophia, rushed into the room and gasped, seeing the massacre in my room.But I don’t fucking care! I screamed, throwing things here and there nonstop.She tried to stop me, but I pushed her away. “Go away!” I shouted.“Miss… miss, please calm down! What are you doing!? Stop, please!”
VICTORIA’S POV“Ma’am, will you join us this evening for dinner?” My new assistant, Daniel, asked me with his big doughy puppy eyes.He is the sweetest in the company. A new guy of my age. A little clumsy but a sweetheart. I took interviews for my assistant, and at first glance, I knew who to pick.If I had a little brother, I would like to have someone like Daniel. In just a few days, he proved his loyalty to me.And somehow, he seems to realize that he could get through anything with those puppy eyes and is now tricking me.“What if I say no?” I arched my brow at him. Though I had already decided on the answer, I teased him a little.Immediately his face fall. “Please, ma’am, don’t say no. Everyone wants you there.” He mastered the most adorable puppy eyes this time, and I couldn’t help but chuckle at him.“Fine, I will.”His face lit up as his grey eyes shone. “I will let others know about it!” He said, and as he was about to sprint out of the room, I stopped him.“Wait there, Danie
VICTORIA’S POV“Why are you here?” I asked, blinking my eyes at him and confused, along with maybe a little bit of shock.Whatever it is, I didn’t really expect Antonio here.I thought he doesn’t like to mingle with employees unnecessarily. What more could a person who is passionate about peace want than that?“Yeah, to pick you up.” He replied, completely ignoring Amber’s surprised gasp from my behind.He is not doing this here, does he? Good God, his presence before the female washroom for me is suspiciously intriguing for the people who do not have a slight idea about our relationship.“You don’t have to do that, Antonio.” I said, widening my eyes, gesturing for him not to turn on his ‘protective brother mood’ before Amber, or it would be the breaking news of E Shine tomorrow.However, he totally ignored my silent request with his next words.“Come with me, and I will take you home.”With that, he walked away from there without sparing a mere glance at Amber.Immediately, I sensed m
ALESSANDRO’S POVBeing absent one day from work is a hectic term for the director of the company. And I have missed a few days, which is enough to weary me. People think directors usually don’t do any work, and I really wish they were right.At this time, I only wish Victoria to be here. Her absence always keeps me deeply agitated and upset nowadays. Everyone started fearing for me and avoiding me more than before.I need to have her back in my life soon enough—no way for me there without her.But how? I am unable to find any improved solutions to regain her affection.A helpless sigh escaped from the deep of my soul as I leaned on the car seat, going back home. Well, I can’t say home now. Just a place I am staying in. Without Victoria, the place felt so annoyingly vacant.“Boss?” I heard David’s voice from the driving seat. He was glancing at me through the mirror from time to time.“What is it?” I asked.“Umm, it’s been three days since you have been out of the hospital, and well, yo
