REBECCA'S POV

The first thing I noticed was the clean and unmistakably sterile scent.

My eyelids were heavy—too heavy—but I snapped them open.

Jessica was resting over the table, and the moment she noticed me, she sprang up from her seat.

“Thank the heavens you’re awake. For a second, I thought you weren’t going to make it.” Jessica hugged me, but my attention was fixed on the room.

I darted my eyes from side to side, hoping I was going to find a trace of him, but there was none.

“Where is Kendrick?” I blurted out before I could even stop myself.

“That’s the thing you ask after waking up? Geez, what’s going on between you two?”

I didn’t have time for her silly jokes.

So I ignored her, resting my back against the bed frame.

“Hey, I’m just kidding. Kendrick had to leave for something important. He didn’t tell me though, but I just hope he gets some sleep because he stayed by your side throughout the night.”

My heart drummed. “Did he?”

Jessica nodded. “It’s surprising, right? My brother

    KENDRICK'S POVOnce again I pushed her too hard, and now she was in my arms crying.God, how I hate to see her cry.And the way she wrapped her thin hands over my neck wasn’t helping me at all.Her sobs started to die down, and her head sagged over my shoulders, leaving only her soft breath fanning over my skin.With each breath she took, my pores tightened.“Becca…” I mumbled, but she didn’t answer.I heard her soft moan as she snuggled closer. When I turned my gaze, I caught sight of her eyes closed tightly together.How could she sleep at a time like this?A smile brightened over my face. I brushed my thumb over her cheeks gently as I wiped a tear before it could drop.I kept her all night. If she wasn’t so stubborn, she could have rested more.Sleeping like this was only going to make her uncomfortable, so I scooped her into my arms.Before I could lift her up, the door opened and I froze.Footsteps thumped through the tiled floor, and I lifted my head to see who it was.Our eyes

    REBECCA'S POVI averted my eyes away from his. "Just because you believe something doesn't make it true."Kendrick let out a scoff. "Really? Then look at me. Tell me that you don't want me... that last night..."His voice faltered like it was about to crack all over. I hated the way he sounded, worse, I was the one making him feel that way.The truth? Last night was incredible.A part of me wanted to tell him how I really felt, but even as my lips parted with a quiver, not a single word came out.Heat pricked at the corners of my eyes. Why did I have to feel this way? Why did love feel like both salvation and punishment at once?“Becca… look at me. Please.”Kendrick’s voice was low and calm. Before I could say anything, his hands were already there, cupping my face with a gentleness that made my heart quake. His thumbs brushed along my cheeks as my lashes fluttered, trying to hold back the tide.“Tell me what I did wrong,” he whispered, the words breaking against me. “No matter what

    REBECCA'S POVKendrick's steps faltered as his face continued to turn red. "Are you two…"His voice started to strain, and I had a feeling he was referring to Alyssa.I had a feeling that something absurd was going through his mind.My hand gripped tightly onto the seat, turning it to the front so that Alyssa could be fully revealed."Whatever was going through your dirty mind… cancel it," I said with a deep frown.Kendrick let out a low laugh as the air of relief escaped his lips. He even placed a hand over his chest as he closed the distance between us.Alyssa swallowed, trying to stand, but I held her down. "You don’t get to stand until I’m done with your injury," I snapped, and she nodded quietly.Such a good girl. I worried a lot of people might walk all over her at this rate."What happened to her?" Kendrick’s voice came from behind me. The desk creaked the moment he pressed his weight against it."What are you doing here, Kendrick?" I asked, making sure my attention was back on

  • Hell Has No Fury: His Ex Wife Revenge   The Little snitch

    REBECCA'S POVI knew that something was up the moment Alyssa wasn’t back in my office even though it was already past twenty minutes.My heart drummed as I made my way into the hallway. Even though I didn’t think much about it, working with me was going to put her at risk because I was literally an enemy magnet at this point.My own family wasn’t an exception.I almost walked past the break room when a low, stern voice etched with a faint sense of mockery that I recognized all too well boomed through my ears.I locked eyes on the crowd, only then did I turn fully to see what was going on.Alyssa! Shock rippled through me, seeing the way she trembled like she was going to collapse any minute.I rushed into the situation and I felt something trip off right inside my head when Alyssa told me the person who hurt her was Anna."Anna, just how low can you go." I gritted my teeth, watching as she tried her best to avoid eye contact with me.Before I could get a response from Anna, another w

    ANNA’S POVAlice quickly moved over to grab me from the floor. "Anna, what are you doing? How can you let them humiliate you like this?" she scolded.I burst into tears, my shoulders jerking from the impact as the tears continued to flow even more."Alice, stop. If you keep doing this, I’m worried that our jobs will be at stake." I sniffed, lips pursed from the tears."You are such a liar. First, you made me trip, hit me, and now you want to claim the victim," Alyssa snapped, folding her arms over her chest."You are pathetic."Pathetic maybe. But you just walked into one of my traps."Stop trying to defend yourself. Everyone here knows that the chairman must have put you up to this because she doesn’t like Anna. You should be ashamed of yourself for even agreeing to do such a thing," Alice said, shaking her head in disgust."Apologize to Miss Anna. Just because you got a promotion doesn’t mean you are better than the rest of us." The people around us started to chant almost at once.

That night before I got out to confront him, Felix was nowhere to be found.He just left and didn’t call me.What bothered me was that I didn’t even get the chance to hear what they were talking about but I could already guess.He was cheating on me. That would explain why he was acting like a fucking snob.When I find my hands on that woman, I will crush her.My gaze drifted up from where I was and I noticed that Rebecca's assistant was walking through the passage, towards me.My mind flashed over to that day when she didn’t hesitate to insult and humiliate me because she was now working with that witch Rebecca.As I stared
