登入Cara couldn't believe her ears, did she really just hear Vicky say she wanted to divorce her husband? Didn't that mean the chances of getting back together with Romeo was higher?"Wait, how can you throw away your marriage just because you feel bored?" Romeo asked her."Don't put it like that!" She said with a soft chuckle. "Besides, I'm not throwing my marriage away, we still love each other very much and we are still husband and wife."But we'll live apart from each other, we'll try to see when we can, anything to make each other happy. The kids will also be staying with him in Korea because they're life is there. Not here. Like mine." She explained."Still doesn't make any sense to me." Romeo said. He crossed his arms and stared at Vicky. "And you're trying to tell me that you're not worried one single bit that your husband will meet another woman, fall in love with her, and replace you?""He won't. But, of course, he's only human and I won't blame him if he does. Then I'll simply
Vicky walked over towards them wearing a big smile on her face. She couldn't seem to contain her joy at seeing Romeo from what Cara could understand.She spread open her arms and wrapped them around Romeo, practically pulling him away from Cara.Vara couldn't hide how surprised she was, why did she have to be so openly affectionate to someone else's husband? Especially in front of so many cameras.Romeo hugged her back, hands on her back rather than around her waist.When Vicky finally pulled away from him, she turned to face Cara and apologized while smiling widely. "Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to be so aggressive. It's just been so long and I miss my little starfish."Cara smiled. "Starfish huh."Vicky immediately pulled Cara into a hug, warmly and over affectionately. "Ah it's so good to see you in person and--" she pulled away and touched Cara's stomach. "--oh your baby! I'm so excited. Please let me be the godmother."Cara blinked, everything was too fast for her
The next few days went by smoothly, Cara didn't feel so insecure anymore. Even when she walked in on him on the phone with Vicky, she simply kissed him on the cheek and laid down on his lap.It was finally time for Vicky's party and surprisingly, Cara was actually looking forward to it.She would get to see all her friends again-- Romeo's friends-- and even leave the house while putting on a pretty dress.Romeo stepped into the walk-in closet of their bedroom and froze by the door, his lips softly parted as he stared at the woman standing before him.He felt like his heart had found a whole new rhythm to beat, something that made him feel like his life was starting all over again.Something indescribably... Good.Cara turned towards him and a soft smile formed on her lips. "What do you think?" She spread her arms and gave him a little spin so he could see all the corners of the dress.His emerald eyes shone with love, love that he didn't even know was there.He loved his wife with all
Cara stared at the ringing phone for a moment and her eyes traveled up to her husband's unshaken expression as he noticed the name on the screen.Wordlessly, he flipped the phone over and picked up his fork to eat."Who's that?" Tori asked."Vicky." He said without a single change in his expression.Tori gasped. "You're gonna let it just ring like that? Answer it, it would be rude of you not to answer her call, after all, she's making you a VIP at her party. Maybe she has something to report.""Not at the table mom. We'll talk later." His voice was calm but his tone made it known that there was no room for argument or further discussion."Oh..." Tori turned to look at Cara who was now fiddling with her fork wordlessly. She chuckled softly, almost nervously. "Ah! Of course! Where are my manners."Romeo simply smiled.Cara kept her gaze on her meal, not wanting to meet her husband's gaze, but she couldn't raise another fork to her mouth.She couldn't believe that there was going to be a
Cara stared at her friend with sympathy. She knew Abigail didn't like talking about how her husband hurt her, who would to be honest? But just to shine a brighter light into the situation, she spoke of her pain. She too could relate to losing someone she loved, after all, her husband had left her for none other than her best friend. If that wasn't pure pain then she didn't know what was. She placed her hand on Abigail's and squeezed it softly. Abigail couldn't help but to chuckle softly. “Who is comforting who?” She asked and Cara chuckled. “We're here for each other and you know that.” Cara said with a soft smile on her face. Abigail nodded her head, a gentle sad smile dangling on her lips. She continued. “So darling, I need you to trust him on this. Leave the choice to him, I know how much you love him and how much he loves you too but forgive me for saying this, if he leaves, then it was never meant to be.” Cara nodded her head, her friend was right, she knew it all along thou
“Did you hear? The hitman, your friend's ex boyfriend right? He's been sentenced to twenty years in prison.” Romeo said to Cara. He waited for a response but didn't get any. When he stared closely at her, he realised that she was there but her mind was elsewhere. He placed a hand on hers as he called her name softly. “Cara?”She flinched. “Huh? Oh… sorry. I don't– my mind was elsewhere. What were you saying?” Her brow arched as she asked him. “I was talking about your friend's ex boyfriend. He has been sentenced to twenty years.” He repeated. “Oh wow! That's… that's amazing! Now my mind can be at peace. All this while I was worried that he could be released or something.” She let out a soft breath. Romeo could tell that someone was bothering her. He took her hand in his and caressed it. “What's bothering you?” He asked in a soft and melodic tone. “What makes you think I'm bothered by something?” She asked him, her thin brow arching. He stared at her, knowing well that to him, s
All eyes were on Jessica but she chose not to care. She felt infuriated from the inside but had to wear a casual look on her face just because she did not want to give Sarah the satisfaction of a reaction. She focused on her food like she had not just announced that she would be stepping down from
Cara woke up with a lazy yawn, she wished she could lay back in bed even though she was not sleeping, just to relax her body. The scent of something mouthwaterinly delicious caught her nose and she just had to get up from bed. She picked up her phone and checked the time, it was a little after eig
Alone in the coldness of her bedroom was Jessica, torn between her wishes and a lifelong debt. She sat down on her bed, knees to her chest with her arms wrapped around them. Her thick duvet was thrown over her body.Her eyes stared at her lamp but she saw nothing. Staring into the emptiness with he
The night went by in the blink of an eye, Jessica was wide awake all through. Her hunger had suddenly disappeared after her encounter with Sarah. She had gone through her phone and truly realized that she did not have the video anymore. How it happened, she did not know. But she knew how angry it
