MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 12
(Serena's POV)I sat on the couch staring at the fireplace. This was some real shit... He's planning to have a business meeting somewhere without me. What's the point of my presence here, who supposedly nurse him, just as he commanded days ago?"Ah, ready on time." I heard his sarcastic voice.As I spun around, I saw him, again in a suit, but with damp hair. He couldn't be going to that island without me, right?As soon as the household staff were off hearing distance, he said, "Pack your thing--" "Done."He stared at me with a question face. Anyone would be stunned to know that his ex-wife is taking care of him as a so-called nurse for responsibility. I hated him for enjoying my discomfort, for having that silent conniving smile on his face.After trying to think of a retort, all I managed to come up with was, "Well Mr. Walton, did you forget to inform me that you're going out for work?" and spun around walking towards the car.In less than a few strides he was right behind me and he

(Serena's POV)"Hey, wake up." I heard a familiar voice. I felt cold hands on my arms, shaking me. I slowly opened my eyes to see a very angry Marcus.He sighed. "The next time you run off, it's over." He said and helped me up. I looked down and saw the bloody hole I fell into. Who digs a hole in the middle of a path?Wait... Did he save me? H-How-- my eyes landed on his injured leg, he's still sitting in his wheelchair."Let's go, my leg is aching."I instantly pushed his wheelchair, all the way to the house with him grumpy and mumbling how stupid I was. The sky went from a sunny morning to a grey dark."Shit." He cursed causing me to stop.Did he just curse at me? I didn't ask him to save my guts inside that Goddamn hole! Why does he keep saying the fact that I'm an idiot itself? With a scoff, I was about to scowl at him but suddenly look up. "It's going to rain." He said and turned his head to me. "I trust you have enough energy to run?" He asked and I nodded. The path is not c
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 14
(Serena's POV)The next day, the cyclone was still raging, which meant me and him stuck together in the villa.And after last night, I've been avoiding having contact with him at all. I walked to the huge study and started browsing books. The only good thing about my ex-husband was that he had huge collections of books. I smiled at books by my favorite author. I took one and curled up on the recliner.As I opened the book, the smell wafted through my nose. I always found the smell of old books... amazing."I wonder why I am not seeing you everywhere." I heard his voice and turned towards the door.He was standing there, walking towards the desk. Unlike other days, he was wearing faded jeans and a black t-shirt. He looked almost normal but for the sly in his eyes. However, his face looked weird.I frowned. "What's wrong?""Why do you assume something is wrong?" He looked quite surprised by my question."If everything was fine you would have a scowl on your face and your taunts would hav
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 15
(Serena's POV)The following morning, he resumed ignoring my presence all day long and wouldn't even look me in the eye. Given that, someone arrived on the island. Looking by their clothing, they must be Marcus's business partners. I became his maid the whole day, pushing his wheelchair while carrying his suitcase and documents. It seems like I'm back as his assistant. I always give what he needed but he never talk to me. Well, for me, this is better than listening to his words of wisdom.I was also surprised that they congratulate us for getting back together. I remained silent and he did the same. I'm tired to have a conversation with his visitor.How can they assume without checking the fact? Paparazzi is everywhere and any moment from now, our faces will be in the headline the very next day. Thankfully, he was not caught when he become a waiter for a day in Los Angeles.When my presence is not needed anymore, I exit the circle and head inside the house.I was sitting on a stool i
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 16
(Serena's POV)Pushing him, I slapped him hard. I received a glare from him. If he's angry, I'm more than angry. He thinks he can still control me. Well, he was mistaken about that."Get. Of. Me." I deadly glare at him but to no avail."NO." His firm 'no' makes me feel more furious.His brows are meeting together, his ragged breath, a thrummed heartbeat that was about to explode from his chest. He is extremely mad right now. This is the same expression I saw when he divorce me and when he throws those pictures in front of me."Your jealous."He smirks like a lunatic. "Thank you for figuring it out." A hint of sarcasm was in his voice."We're not married anymore, Marcus."How many times do I have to remind him of our situation? I'm not his wife anymore. I saw how his face slowly became soft. Did I hurt him again? This is the same expression when I said I will sell our wedding ring."Don't remind me." He whispered.I clenched my fist tightly and took a deep breath. "I have to, for you
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 17
(Serena's POV)Late on a Tuesday night, Marcus walked into my room like nothing had happened. Had he forgotten how I'd pushed him away? Our silent treatment lasted for a week. His cast was removed a few days ago and he can walk but only to be careful. It's getting closer to my freedom. But every time I glance at the calendar, it's saddening me for no reason.I am staying inside the house so much was messing with my line of thought. While Marcus has back his duty as a CEO. Everything seemed muddled and confusing and I began to worry for my own sanity. Any reminder of what my life used to be like was too painful and I'd rather do without it.An envelope was thrown onto my bed where I sat. I looked at Marcus in all his drunken glory and wrinkled my nose because of the strong stench of alcohol coming from him. I already warned him about drinking alcohol. But will he listen? Now that I declared to him I'm done with him? Pain hammered in my chest like a stung needle every time I kept reme
MADDEST OBSESSION Chapter 18
(Serena's POV)The cottage was ideal for two people who wanted to hide from the rest of the world and I fell in love with it immediately. It looked like something right out of a Disney fairytale with its wooden floors and walls. The structure itself was made of terracotta and the sloping roof was painted a homely red colour. The garden was full of orange blossoms and lavender, and keeping with the lavish Walton tradition, a Koi pond. There was a hammock in the garden too and that was where I spent most of my time, soaking up the sun. Marcus, on the other hand, spent hours and hours at their private beach, swimming and surfing on his own. He was one for water sports, that much I had figured out.His employees are already settled in their own cottage, while some was having fun near the beach.I was glad to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, especially after what had happened at the airport. Marcus might already know about Nico. He's giving me the silent treatment again.

My mind is empty.My heart is in pain.-Your job is done. Thank you for everything-His voice keeps running through my head. Every time I closes my eyes, his no emotions pale blue eyes stared at me like I was just a mere stranger to him now.It pains me.But I deserved it.Did I?A knock on the door jolted me on my bed. "Housekeeping."It's Marcus's servant.I let her in to change the bed sheet and clean the whole room while I am gazing down the balcony where Marcus's employees are having fun on their own.This is not a team building. It seems like a vacation for his people. I smiled to know that he still care about his people even though he does not express it while at the company.Here I am again...
