“I hate that man, I hate that man, I hate him but oh!! How I love him”. Valentina Berkeley got married to a man she knew nothing about, a man who hated and did nothing to get close to her. At the altar he looked like someone reciting his death sentence and when they got married, he isolated himself from her. He loved another woman and made it obvious to her that he hated her because of their arranged marriage, yet she loved him. She loved his brooding look and read into the littlest things he did for her but when it became too much, she gathered what little pride she had left and divorced him. Fast forward to few years later, they meet again and they have to work together. Feelings develop and the man that was filled with hatred for her seems nowhere to be found. It does not help that she had his child and she would do anything to keep him a secret. Will she be able to keep the hatred she had for him or will he slowly eat away at the walls she built to protect herself? Will the love she once had for him overcome the hatred that built up and festered over the years or will secrets and untold truths doom their relationship to the same end? Will she give in to her son's demands for a father? Will he be able to redeem himself in her eyes or would he be the same man that hurt her time and time again?

Prologue
April 2017
It was my wedding day! it was! But where was my husband? I had been at the altar for hours and my husband was nowhere to be found. Mrs. Alicia my mother-in-law had excused herself outside to call him times and times again but he did not show up. Despite all this, the smile on my face could have been compared to the light coming in through the glass windows, I had dolled myself up for this wedding and despite the fact that my legs were killing me due to the 6-inch heels I was wearing, I refused to let anything spoil my wedding.
I looked to where my parents were seated, they smiled without a care in the world, it was expected since they were getting rid of a nuisance. They had made this fact clear to me since I was young and when the first opportunity presented itself, they thrust me into the arms of Alicia Valero. It wasn’t a bad deal to me, Alicia was lovely. She loved me even more than my parents but it was her son that was her problem. I had wanted to back out after our first meet where he treated me like I didn’t exist but his mother assured me that he just needed time so I married him.The door of the church opened and my husband entered, 3 hours late. He walked in and my breath caught, he looked so handsome even with the frown on his face, I found my mind wondering to how he would look if a smile stretched those icy lips of his, I wondered how he would look if a laugh lifted those stone hard cheeks and if the twinkle and light of laughter entered his eyes but I could only wonder, the only thing he gifted my eyes with was the frown on his face.Yet I was happy, I looked forward to when he would open up to me, to when he would show me the cheerful personality that his mother spoke so highly of. It was time to read our vows and I promised myself onto Simon till death do us part. Simon read out his vows and I felt excitement build in my heart despite the fact that he read it like a death sentence.‘I now pronounce you husband and wife’ my excitement bubbled out as the priest joined us together and I turned to kiss Simon. He placed a fleeting kiss on my lips and turned away, the kiss left much to be desired and I looked forward to our wedding night.We walked out of the church hand in hand after taking pictures but immediately we got to where cars were parked, he got in and drove off leaving me standing, stranded. My mother-in-law saved my face and instructed her driver to take me home.I got home and headed to Simon’s room still clad in my wedding gown. I was met with a shocker when Simon told me never to step foot in his room. He pushed me out and called for the maids and instructed them to show me to my room, he told me that he wants nothing to do with me and that I should meet the maids if I wanted anything.Pinakabagong kabanata

The closest hospital was fifteen minutes away, and we met with shock on getting there.‘What’, shock dripped from my tone the second time in the same hour as I stared at the doctor assigned to me,I was alone in her office as she looked through the result of my X-ray.The first was when I heard that Simon had to be admitted just minutes ago,According to the nurse, Simon’s wound was infected and needed close monitoring,‘But I did a good job at dressing it when it happened’, I protested and she glances at me with a knowing smile on her face,‘You did, but according to your husband the shard stayed in for hours’, I couldn’t explain the giddy feeling, the sweet shivers that always spread through me anytime we were called husband and wife.‘The dressing was also wet like you let water get into it’, the feeling simmered, dying out as I turned a glare towards Simon.‘I told you, you need help bathing’, ‘I didn’t want to bother you’, he replied me and I eyed him up and down, my ey

Well...not…not exactly’, my eyes narrowed at a spluttering Simon,‘We’ll discuss this later’, a glare on my face I whisper at him before I turned to Ajax‘You’re not skipping today’, I stretch my hands out for Simon to pass him to me,‘But I want to play with you and daddy’, he pouted at me, grabbing tightly to Simon’s neck‘We can play when you get back, school is important’, I glared at Simon again, watching a sheepish look take over his face,‘But daddy said…..’‘I’m sure daddy was just joking’ ‘Right Simon’, I turned a tight smile to Simon and he nodded quickly,‘Yeah, Ajax’, his face looked pained as he tried to force a smile onto his face,‘I meant if you fell sick, you could skip to go to the hospital’, Ajax pout stayed on a moment more before it resolved, it turned into a frown in seconds as his eyes fixed on Simon’s face,‘Daddy, are you sick?’‘Your face looks bad’ Ajax stretched his hand out, poking Simon face with a finger, ‘No…no I’m not sick’, a forced la

The next morning finds it almost impossible to get us out of bed,We stared, cradling each other’s faces like we were making sure those whispered moments of the night before were real.‘Good morning’, bumping my nose with his finger, Simon greeted me,‘So we’re getting married or something’, ignoring his greeting, I poke his nose the same way he did mine, remembering the giddy feeling from being called Valentina Valero,‘Baby!, we’re already married’, sweet shivers fill my belly from the endearment used, but a little confusion rivals it, lop siding the smile on my face,‘Yeah, and then we got a divorce’, confusion spilled to my voice, but that smile, that silly smile that said “I know something you don’t” stayed on his face,‘Don’t be too sure about that’ Simon springs from the bed, a sly smile stretched across his lips.‘Explain that statement Mister’, I jump up too, wagging my finger at him,I’m interrupted by a knock on our bedroom door, the door pushing open almost immedia

‘Oh my God!!’, I shout, staring at the counter, at his back,‘Why didn’t you tell me’, I was staring at blood soaked tissues, a large piece of glass lying among them, blood streaming down a gash in his shoulder.I felt stupid, I had hugged him, yet I knew nothing of the large gash streaming blood.‘You carried me, helped me with my toes and all this while you had glass lodged in your shoulder’.‘I didn’t want you to worry’, he had a sheepish look on his face as he grabbed more tissues, stemming the flow of blood,‘What kind of excuse is that, do you want to die of blood loss’,‘It’s not that bad’, he replies me and I turn a glare towards him,‘I’ll be fine, I heal fast’, he smiles sheepishly,‘Don’t you dare use my word against me, this is more than just blisters’ I press against the wound with him’‘We’re going to the hospital’, I try to pull him with me.‘What of Ajax?’,‘You’re my priority right now’, I use his words too and a laugh drops from his lips,‘I just want to sleep now, w

Alright’, his hands stayed still on my waist, eyes on my face, watching patiently as I took a deep breath.‘Looking at those pictures on Adam’s bedroom wall was both terrifying and freeing’, I start with the feeling I first happened upon.Simon stares, listening,‘I mean I'm part grateful that he stalked me over those years and summarized six years of my life onto a 7ft wall.‘Hmm!!!’, a sound of shock comes from Simon throat, a frown on his face,‘Don’t me wrong, it was horrifying’, I cling onto his large palms, trying to assure him that I was going somewhere with my statement‘I mean how else was I supposed to see how truly pathetic running and hiding is, how was I to discover that that kind of life is not one I’m planning on living for the rest of my life.I bring Simon’s hands to my laps, holding on.‘Throughout those years I endured such strain om my mental health, all because of cowardice’, he didn’t interrupt me, just stared and listened.‘As I looked up at those pictures, it f

The moment we got home, the first thing I did was head to Ajax’s room,It was hard, limping down the hall with Simon ‘s support, but I needed to see him, to make sure nothing went wrong while Simon came for me,‘Where are we going’, we get to Simon’s room, but I don’t stop indicating my need to walk further down the hallway so he asks,‘I need to see him’, he took one look at me and nodded, taking his hands off his door knob as we went on,‘Careful, don’t wake him up’, Simon whispers the moment my hand hits the knob on Ajax’s door,Nodding, I smile at him, turning gently, peeking into his room before walking in,Truly he was asleep, snuggled in the midst of pillows, a plush bunny in his hand.A wide smile graced my lips as I limped forward, moving to his bed,I stretch my hand out, wanting to smoothen out the hair on his head but Simon stops me,‘Don’t wake him’, he whispers,‘We can’t have him seeing us like this’, I glance down at myself, looking to Simon’s battered face and decide
