Scarlett's POV~

Dylan's words were like whispers, causing my heart to flutter, my mind to spin and my soul to stir. The gentle tone sent shivers down my spine and left me speechless, my heart racing with a mixture of surprise and emotion. Those three words hung in the air, heavy with meaning, and I couldn't help but feel like everything had changed in that instant.

I - love - you…. His words echoed in my ears once again and my eyes went wide a little as I stared at him, lost in the depths of his eyes and the sincerity sparkling in it. My mind reeled from the unexpected confessions

Swallowing the lump in my throat, I let out a deep breath, trying to bring myself together. I couldn't process my feelings right now. The director's voice, crew’s chatter, everything seemed muffled, fading in the background, yet Dylan's words resonated deep within me, like a gentle hum that refused to fade.

As the cameras stopped rolling, he brushed a strand of hair behind, eyes locked onto mine as he repe

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 81.~. When Evil Collides

    Author's POV ~Scarlett moved closer, her eyes fixed on Jasmine who was heading out of the lobby. With quick, stealthy steps, she stepped out of the lobby and raised her head slightly, trying to listen in on Jasmine's conversation with her caller. Scarlett watched closely as Jasmine peered around, trying to see if she was being watched. A gasp escaped Scarlet's lips as she hid at a corner, her back coming in contact with the wall. She placed her hands on her chest, her breathing heavier than before. Jasmine was close to seeing her. Only God knows what would have happened if she had locked eyes with her. It wouldn't be good because Jasmine would suspect she was spying on her, and she might cause a scene. Luckily, that didn't happen and Scarlett could still continue with her plan to gather information without being detected. Her grip on her phone tightened. She moved out of her hiding spot and neared closer, her eyes fixed on Jasmine who had now gotten into her car. Scarlet's phone b

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 80.~. Entwined Secrets

    Scarlett’s POV ~It felt like I'd been punched to the gut. Even after Jasmine had left, the sight of Charlotte’s name on her phone screen still unsettled me. My eyes went wide a little as I tried to wrap my head around it. I felt surprised, uneasy and curious. Are they friends? I know they are acquainted but they've never had anything to do with each other. Besides, Jasmine hated Charlotte and acted rudely towards her the first day she saw her. Could they have been friends? Or …My thoughts came to a halt when I heard voices. Jasmine stood beside Ethan, and I watched as they both discussed one or two things, probably about Eric's surgery.Jasmine's teeth showed through her warm smile. Ethan's expression softened,as he listened to the words she was saying. I could tell she was comforting him because they were discussing Eric's surgery. I watched as she leaned against Ethan, her hand resting against his arms. Her presence was a comfort to Ethan, his attention on her was undivided. She

    Scarlett’s POV~I nodded, eyes flashing with understanding. My gaze drifted towards Eric who was now dressed in a blue hospital gown. His warm smile melted my heart, melting my worries and troubles. Jasmine sniffed, wiping a tear from her eyes, a faux concern on her face. She knelt beside Eric and whispered to him, “You'll be fine, Eric. Trust me.”Eric nodded, feeling satisfied. His smile deepened as her words brought relief to his face. I stood there, my eyes sparkling with desire and concern as they burned with unshed tears. My heart was heavy with emotions as I watched smile with confidence. My fingers were itchy— itchy to grab him and hug him. My lips trembled, eager to form words of reassurance but I felt something break in me as he spun around to leave without sparing me a glance. The nurse gave him a wheelchair and he sat on it before waving at Ethan. As they wheeled him into the ward, I wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes. The pain of being a stranger to my own ch

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 78.~. A Wound In Disguise

    Scarlett’s POV~My steps came to a halt. Hilary's words echoed in my ears, leaving me speechless. My eyes narrowed slightly as I sensed a challenge in her words. I swallowed hard, wondering what Dylan's response would be. I spun around to face him, and I could sense his unease, his expression twisted into uncertainty.When his eyes locked with mine, he forced a smile and placed his hands around my shoulder. And then, he turned to Hilary and admitted, “That’s urm, true, Hilary. You're correct.” Hilary’s eyes went wide, her expression shifting from shock to confusion. “How. How is that possible? Wait a minute. You're dating Ethan's ex-wife and he has no problem with it?”Dylan slid his fingers into his hair, his unease growing. He explained further after exhaling, “Well, I'm not bothered about her past or who she's been with. Scarlett and I are a perfect match and we've been spending some time together.”“I see,” Hilary nodded, but her voice laced with surprise, her expression unreadab

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 77. Old Flames And New Tension

    Scarlet's POV ~I watched in silence as Dylan took in the sight of Hilary who was dressed in a nice white blouse and firm dark jeans that highlighted her toned legs. Her vibrant red hair was styled in loose waves and she had a red lipstick and scarf to complement it. Dylan's eyes sparkled with a mix of excitement and familiarity as he assessed her from head to toe, his mouth too heavy to speak. At that moment, I studied his reaction, trying to see if he was still actually, genuinely in love with her.I felt betrayed because he's never mentioned anything about her. Ethan had once told me about her when we were together but I had no clue what she looked like then. Alaric shared more light about Ethan and Dylan's past to me and he mentioned who Hilary was and shared what she looked like to me. The only person who never said anything to me about her was Dylan. I fiddled with my fingers, swallowing past the huge lump in my throat as I watched both ex stare at each other with a hint of reco

  • Sunrise After Divorce; The Comeback Queen    Chapter 76.~. Reclaiming What's Mine.

    Scarlett’s POV ~>My eyes remained locked on Ethan, a flash of rage and determination in them. Dylan's voice echoed through the phone, but I barely registered his words. My entire focus on Ethan and I couldn't see beyond the cloud of rage in my eyes, my stomach bubbling with frustration as his words echoed in my mind. He claimed that my attempt to reunite with my son was a means for me to steal him away. What made me even more enraged was him claiming that I would use my celebrity status to manipulate the system. Well, maybe he was right after all. I mean, he just made me remember who I was.My lips twitched, a smug smile on my face Is that all he could think about? What an ungrateful, selfish jerk.Dylan’s voice came again, snatching me out of my thoughts. “Hello, Scarlett. Where are you? I've been searching everywhere for you, but I can't —”“--- I'm at the… urm,” I cut in, my eyes narrowing as I scanned the part of the hospital we were in. Taking a deep breath, I clutched my phon
