Joanne's pov,

I left my tiny bedroom wearing the fine sky-coloured dress he bought for me.

I arrived in the living room, where I saw my Daddy sitting on the sofa, and was reading a newspaper which I had bought for him, as he was someone who appreciated reading physical newspapers, rather than reading the ones online.

“I am going out, Daddy! Don't get worried and start looking for me”. I said to him as I gave him a hurried kiss on his left cheek before I left the apartment, not waiting for him to ask me any questions.

I did not want him to ask me any questions, because I knew that he might ask me where I was heading to. And I was afraid that I might make a mistake while responding to him because I was not a pro when it came to telling a lie.

I suddenly halted in the hallway as I stared at the lunchbox in my hand.

Before I knew it, I was blushing and was smiling at the same time because of what was inside the lunchbox.

They were cakes and other snacks which I had personally baked

    Valentina's pov, I sat outside the mansion, on the bare ground as I stared up at the dark sky that was filled with countless stars. My eyes were hot, but tears had ceased to come out of them. It was as if my tears had dried up, and no matter how sorrowful I was, no tears could come out. I lost everything. My life was a mess, and I did not know the way forward. It should have been Adira in this mess. I have not stopped regretting why I took that bastard away from her. I never knew he was so useless and never deserved me. If he knows what is best, he should rot in jail. No. He and his damn mother should both rot in hell. I placed my hand on my stomach and caressed it gently.‘How am I going to take care of you by myself? What sort of burden is this? But, I have already lost a baby, I don't think I can lose another again’. I thought as my eyes remained open without blinking. I was tired. Exhausted. I did not get why people were blaming me when I was not the one who committed the

    “Dad, you shouldn't blame yourself anymore”. I said, before standing up from the sofa and going ahead to meet him. “Don't blame yourself anymore. It's not your fault. If anything, I am very proud and delighted that you get to be my Dad”. I admitted with a smile on my face as a drop of tear escaped from my eye.My Dad smiled back at me, before he hugged me. A hug I did not expect. But that did not stop me from returning the hug. ‘Don't worry, Dad. All is not too late. Sooner than later, we are both going to return to the way we used to be. I promise’. I thought to myself as I rested my chin on his shoulder and was not planning on freeing myself from the hug. Soren's pov, I was inside the apartment, and sitting beside me was the private lawyer whom I had hired. And sitting opposite us was a couple who were the current owners of the apartment. “I am going to give you each 1 million dollars and a brand-new house”. I said with a proud smirk on my face, and the couple looked at each

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 230) Grown up/ My fault.

    Joanne’s pov, I returned to the apartment and was not feeling sad anymore. About an hour ago, I felt badly hurt. It felt like ants were eating away my heart, but after she appeared in the picture, she was easily able to calm the storm in my heart. And she did not look like the kind of person who cared if I was rich, poor, or an average individual. Was it truly fated that we met each other?I noticed the dark circles in her eyes as she arrived in the restaurant. She must have tired herself out, because most of what I had seen and heard, being a single mother was more difficult than writing a math exam. But despite that, she made time to accommodate me. I don't think I need any reason not to fully accept her as my friend. She could be my friend, and it was even better that she was a jeweler like me. I smiled. My hand reached out to open the door in front of me, but I halted after thinking about something. Her husband was a big time scumbag for abandoning a stunning young lady l

    When she lifted her head, her eyes were filled with tears and had reddened. Almost swelling.“We used to be in love with each other. We used to cherish and care for each other. But now, everything has changed simply because of a simple mistake I made. I mean, anybody could make such a mistake. So why did he have to take it very personally? We have even been apart from each other for a while now”. She said to me. Her voice was rough and filled with pain. I could easily tell. But I did not quite know the full story, and I did not want to be the one to ask her what actually happened, unless she was the one who wanted to tell me about it herself. I had not come to meet her at the restaurant to get nosy about her business. I had only come because she needed someone to talk to. “Have you tried admitting to him that it was your fault? Have you tried apologizing to him?”. I asked her, but she rose to her feet suddenly and slammed both her hands on the table. The plates and the glass cup

    “Wait, wait. Just tell me what happened”. I said to her, because so far, she had not explained to me why she was like this. “I- I- it is not something that I can talk about over the phone with you. Please can you come over? I heard a baby's cry. It is okay if you can't come”. She said, not even waiting for me to reply to her whether I could come or not. I checked my cell phone, and seeing that the time was 3:57pm, I would not lie... I frowned a little bit because I was not in the mood to go out by this time of the day, when the sun was harsh, shining very brightly, and hot against the skin. “Tell me where you are. I am going to come meet you”. I told her, and she revealed that she was staying at the restaurant where we met each other for the first time. After that, the phone call ended, but then came a tired groan from me, combined with a heavy sigh. “Is this what having friends is all about? I guess it is time for me to experience such a thing”. I said to myself, before leaving

  • Heart of a Betrayed Wife   Chapter 227) An unexpected phone call from her.

    Adira's pov, It was afternoon, and I had bought Vincent most of the items I think he needed as a baby. Though most of the items had been recommended to me by the doctor I met moments ago.According to him, it was good for me to feed him milk, but he further stretched that I could add other food like yogurt, leafy greens, cut eggs, avocado, and so on. By the way, I remained in the living room, sitting on the floor, next to the table, while Vincent was lying inside a crib, which was close to me. He was fast asleep, and I could not have been happier. I never knew that taking care of a baby was so much hard work. My arms hurt from carrying him around when I was trying to make him fall asleep so that I could start my jewelry creation. With the jewelry items that Kai bought for me, I wanted to see the idea I could come up with. But thinking about my previous idea, I could not help but sigh in defeat. Of course, I could re-sketch the design if I wanted to, but there was a little prob
