로그인CassandraToday, we had a guest at the house. In the past, whenever she came, her eyes would immediately scan every corner of the place, which made me feel tense.After that, she would speak in an unpleasant tone. Every time she did that, I felt an overwhelming fear that triggered my anxiety, making me question whether I had failed in my role as a wife.This time was different. When she entered the house, her gentle gaze fell on me, and then she hugged me.“Sandra, I’m so happy to see you.”It felt strange. I wasn’t used to Julie showing kindness toward me.“Thank you for accepting Sebastian again.”I looked at her, and she truly seemed relieved about it. Even when we were sitting together, she didn’t want to be far from me. She stayed beside me, holding my hand.“I won’t make the same mistake as before. You’re the one who truly deserves to be with Sebastian—my best daughter-in-law.”Perhaps some of the trauma from the past was still there. Even though she said it politely, I was quit
CassandraI was sitting casually with Miles when I saw Sebastian walk in, his jaw clenched. Just by looking at him, I could tell he’d had a bad day.But as soon as he looked toward me and Miles, he immediately changed his expression to something more relaxed.“Milo, why aren’t you asleep yet?” he asked while lifting Miles into his arms.“I was waiting, Dad.”After everything they had been through together, Miles now showed more honesty toward Sebastian. He no longer hesitated to show his clingy side.“Alright. Dad will clean up first, then we’ll sleep together.”I saw a smile appear on Miles’s face. After that, the two of them walked into the bedroom.Everything felt quite peaceful. Miles slept between the two of us, his face calm and serene. Then I turned to Sebastian.“What’s wrong? Did something happen at your office?”I couldn’t forget the hard expression he had earlier. If something had happened, I wanted to hear about it. Maybe it would help him.Maybe it was also because I alwa
SebastianWhen I saw that man touching Cassandra while holding her hand tightly, I truly couldn’t hold myself back anymore.My anger made me start a fight with him. From the beginning, I already disliked him because he always tried to get Cassandra’s attention.That day, a woman slapped Cassandra. That damn woman actually dared to do that to Cassandra.I wanted to break her hand and make her feel pain many times worse than what Cassandra had suffered.Cassandra stopped me. She slapped the woman back. Even so, I still couldn’t accept what she had done to Cassandra.I knew she was Cillian’s cousin. Damn it—anything related to that man truly brings bad luck and negative influence.That woman was the perfect example. She tried to get rid of Cassandra. When I wanted to drag her away to punish her, Cillian had already thrown her back to the place she came from.I didn’t get my chance, but I destroyed her family there, making that woman cry and beg for mercy—though she would never receive an
CillianFuck.I truly didn’t want something like this to happen. Everything I had planned completely fell apart because of that woman.I should have dealt with her immediately and sent her away so she wouldn’t disturb Cassandra.My emotions were running high. I still wasn’t calm at all right now. This shouldn’t have happened to me.Cassandra was with Sebastian, and the distance between Cassandra and me was growing wider.Bastard!I slammed my phone hard onto the floor until it shattered.She had just replied to my message, but only to tell me not to disturb her time. After I tried to contact her again, I realized she had blocked me.There couldn’t be a worse day than today. With all the closeness that had developed between Cassandra and me, everything was now destroyed. I might truly never be able to have her again.“Cillian, I already told you to just forget about her,” she laughed lightly. “Look at her. She can only throw herself at men.”My gaze turned sharp as I looked at her, sud
CassandraI had just taken a sip of the coffee Liza made for me. The calming aroma of it made me let out a long breath.“Miss, why is your hand swollen?” Liza asked as she looked at my hand.My hand had to be wrapped with an elastic bandage to keep it from getting worse and to help me move it a little. I hadn’t expected that punching that woman would leave this kind of impact on my hand.I thought maybe I should take a self-defense class to make myself stronger. I hadn’t talked about this with Sebastian yet, but he would probably agree with the idea.I gave her a small smile as the chair shifted slightly. “Something happened. I couldn’t just stay silent.”“You punched a wall?” Liza shrugged.I knew she was teasing me a little, but she also showed her concern by quickly gathering the documents on my desk.“I don’t know exactly what happened,” she said as she sat in her chair and raised her hand with a thumbs-up. “But you can rely on me here.”I laughed silently at her response.Our rel
CassandraI was truly shocked by what had just happened. A slap landed on my face—and it was all because of Stella.She appeared and immediately got angry at me. Her jaw tightened, and before I could even react, a slap struck my face.Sebastian retaliated and slapped her so hard that the woman fell to the floor. He immediately held my cheeks in his hands.“Sandra, are you okay?” Sebastian asked. His eyes shone as he looked at me carefully.“That damn woman. She made my cheek red like this.”Sebastian glared back at Stella. I knew he wasn’t satisfied with this, and he wanted to go over to her again to do something, but I grabbed Sebastian’s hand.My heart was still beating fast because of what had just happened.“Stella! I already told you not to do anything!” Cillian shouted.I noticed that he didn’t help the woman at all; instead, he looked at her coldly.Sebastian, still furious, spoke, “You should take care of your woman. How dare she hurt Sandra!”“She’s not my woman!” Cillian imm
