Adam's POV

I sat shirtless on the couch, my glass of whiskey resting on my knee, while my hand supported it. Midnight had come and gone and Sienna was still out. The air felt heavy but I stayed put waiting.

Once in a while, my eyes strayed to the wall clock, counting down the seconds until she would show up through the front door. A few times, I dozed off but as soon as I did, I jerked back awake.

Finally, the door creaked open. I turned to look at Sienna and frustration replaced relief. She walked in like I wasn't even there. Her head held down and her steps quick. I put the glass down and followed after her.

“Sienna,” I called with a calm voice, despite the whiskey burning in my throat.

    Chapter 163: Sienna's POVAdam and I had just come back from getting his tests done. The hospital was quiet, and the sun outside was slowly setting, casting a golden glow over everything. It had been a long day, but we were hopeful. The doctors said his condition was stable for now, and the next few days were important.As we stepped into the hospital room, I sat on the couch and leaned back, placing my hand gently over my belly. I felt it—a tiny kick. I gasped softly."Adam," I called, my voice filled with excitement.He turned to look at me immediately, concern flashing in his eyes until he saw the smile on my face."What is it?"I grabbed his hand and placed it on my stomach. "The baby kicked. Just now."His eyes widened, and he pressed his palm gently, waiting.There it was—another kick.His face lit up with joy. "I felt it," he whispered. Then louder, more amazed, "I felt it, Sienna!"We both laughed. The room suddenly felt lighter. Brighter. That tiny moment was filled with so m

    Adam's POV"Is this supposed to be Joke, Henry? Cause this isn't funny one bit." I responded."Definitely not. I am as confused and surprised as you are." He answered, seemingly serious.I huffed impatiently, "Can you hear yourself right now? You are not making any sense here, and I really need to have a much-needed rest,"I needed time to process the events of the day and I would very much love to be alone at the moment.Just a few hours ago, I had sent away some news reporters gathered at the front of the house. Those motherfuckers didn't hesitate to pull up at my gate, hoping that could get a speech off me.I was utterly pissed, especially since I couldn't sue the agency who leaked the news. According to them, it was sent in through an anonymous link, and it was 'their duty'1 to release it.Speak of utter bullshit!Right now, I was in no mood to listen to Henry rant about....whatever it was he had seen. And I absolutely didn't want a single reminder of Sienna at the moment, but he

    ADAMS;I wasn't expecting her to come back here. And I definitely wasn't expecting her to find me in the shower as well.My fists clenched as I stormed towards her in the bathroom, and when I saw how she recoiled, a new wave of anger surged through me. My eyes trailed down to the little wet patch on her blouse, and filled with an intense rage I didn't see coming, my fists reached out and ripped it off.Her startled gasp was everything. "I asked you to get out, didn't I? I clearly said I didn't want to see your face ever again, but you are just so stubborn, aren't you?"Her eyes were wide, and her hands convered her breasts, as she stared at her in shock.Suddenly, there was a bang on the door, which made me pause momentarily as I tilted my head to the side.I stared back at her, and then I grabbed a towel on the rack behind me and stepped out.*****My brows furrowed, when Agatha Informed me, yet again that Henry was in the living room waiting for me. What the hell is he doing here a

But I didn't have the time for that, I needed to know exactly what was going on.“Repeat what you just said.” I yelled at him, my emotions taking over me.“Fucking answer me.” I yelled, tears streaming down my face.The doctor's expression was somber, his eyes filled with compassion. But I didn't want compassion, I wanted answers.I felt like I was losing control of myself. I was angry, angry that he was going deaf, angry that there was nothing I could do to stop it.

Why would he choose to suffer alone, were we not supposed to face challenges together.I faced Adam with tears in my eyes, I walked closer to him slowly, my emotions were all over the place.
