MasukShe needed closure, but it turned out to be the worst decision she ever took… or was it? ~~~ Sera Lane has spent years building a quiet life, far from New York, far from Adrian Cross—the boy who once held her heart, and the secret she’s carried ever since. But when news of his engagement reaches her, she convinces herself one trip back won’t hurt. One night to finally let go. Instead, she walks straight into the storm she’s been running from: Adrian isn’t the same boy she left behind. He’s colder, sharper, and when he learns the truth, he refuses to let her slip away again. Suddenly, Sera is pulled back into his world of wealth and betrayal, standing face to face not only with Adrian but also Ivy Shawn—her former best friend and the woman about to marry him. Adrian wants answers. He wants their son. And he wants her. But with old wounds tearing open and dangerous truths surfacing, Sera has to wonder: did she destroy their love forever… or could the child they share be the second chance neither of them expected? When everything comes crashing down, only one question remains: Can love survive the lies that broke them once before?
Lihat lebih banyakSera's POVMr. Matthew walks into the room, his eyes on Adrian and Owen, then they finally land on me."What's going on here?" he asks.No one replies; they both just glare at each other in silence. I look around, and that's when I notice the crowd of people at the doorway, phones in their hands as they record the scene."Young men, you are disturbing the peace of this environment," he says calmly, but I can see each word laced with controlled anger."I'm so sorry, Sir," I say."It's fine, but I'm sorry I'll have to ask you guys to leave," he says with a voice that sounds stern but also polite.Owen opens his mouth to speak but decides not to. Adrian glances at me for a while, then turns to Owen, his eyes filled with so much hate; he walks away without a word, pushing through the crowd of people.
Adrian's POVI follow her behind as she walks into a small room, the scent of lavender and strawberry filling the air, her laptop sitting on the front desk, her black coat strapped around the chair, the walls painted a cream white, no much designs, just plain paint, article papers and folders scattered around the front desk.Nothing too fancy just a typical office setting."Sorry for the mess, I wasn't expecting anyone," she says, hurrying to pick up the folders and papers."No, it's fine," I simply say, taking a seat just close to the window. I can spot my favorite coffee shop from just around the corner."So what brings you here?" she asks, and I snap my head away from the window."Oh nothing serious, I actually came to visit a friend of mine, he works here so I decided to visit. Ezra said he wanted to see yo
Sera's POVI climb the stairs, my gaze sweeping across the building. It's been a while since I last came to the office, after the whole court incident, I've stayed away.I inhale the familiar office scent, trying to ignore the workers who are staring at me and whispering among themselves."Good morning, Miss Sera! Long time no see." Jane from the printing office practically bursts out of the managing director's office, her hands tugging at her skirt as she keeps adjusting it.There are rumors that she and the managing director are having an affair.Well, now I'm pretty sure those aren't just rumors."Where have you been?" she asks with a smile plastered on her face. From the way the smile wavers at the edges and the way her eyes flicker with every word, I can tell it's fake.
Adrian's POVI sit on the couch, flipping through the files in my arms, my mind racing through every possible outcome of this conversation.Aaron walks in, his hands in his pockets, and a cool smirk playing at the corner of his lips."Why did you call for a family meeting? What's so important that you need to discuss?" he asks, raising an eyebrow."You'll find out soon," I say, getting up from the couch.Just then, my dad walks in with an angry expression plastered on his face."Why did you call for a family meeting?" he demands, his voice sharp."You'll find out soon." I pause for a moment, meeting his glare."Where's Mom?"He strides into the living room, his jaw tight, his movements deliberate and controlled.
