POV 3

He had just arrived home, and a woman had been waiting for him for half an hour with a smile on her face. Now they were about to meet, and she felt so happy because something delightful was about to happen after she had patiently waited long enough for him.

“Sebastian!”

That joyful smile quickly faded from her face.

The man she had been waiting for just walked past her, without turning around, without stopping, as if nothing had ever happened between them. She remembered very well the day

  • The Wife He Never Wanted   Chapter 427

    CassandraThat morning, we woke up feeling very happy.Miles woke up with a big smile on his face, and he immediately hugged both me and Sebastian.“Morning, Mom, Dad!”He woke up earlier than us, causing both of us to wake as well, and we responded with smiles.I knew this place held many memories for him. And after greeting me good morning, he quickly left the room.Sebastian and I let out a breath as we shifted and looked at each other.“Ah, he’s really excited.”Sebastian nodded and pulled me closer into his embrace.I didn’t know how much time passed, but we took things slowly. And when we finally appeared in the dining room, I saw that Miles had already bathed and was neatly dressed.I knew Ellen had taken care of him, and that made me feel at ease.After we had breakfast, we planned to leave this place. We might go for a walk somewhere else.Miles hugged Paul and Ellen very tightly. “Grandpa, Grandma, don’t forget to visit me.”Miles looked sad. I understood that the short time

    CassandraI had a moment filled with peace. Dinner ended on a very happy note, even though our gathering hadn’t truly come to an end.They were still in the living room, chatting about many things or playing small games. Meanwhile, I stepped outside, looking for some fresh air as I let out a long breath.The moments I had spent with them kept replaying in my mind, and it made me smile.As I looked up at the sky, I felt a sense of emotion welling up inside me. It turned out that I had fought so hard and gone through so much. There were times when I wanted to give up, yet somehow I managed to get through it all.I kept hoping that I would continue to grow stronger and be filled with happiness. But I also knew that both Sebastian and I had quite a number of enemies in this world.Without realizing it, I let out another breath. “Ah… am I overthinking?”“What exactly are you thinking about, Sandra?”Someone approached and stood beside me. Her face was calm, and her red hair fluttered in th

  • The Wife He Never Wanted   Chapter 425

    CassandraLately, I’ve felt constantly surrounded by an overwhelming sense of happiness—so much so that I can’t help but believe the future will always feel like this.After spending fifteen days on vacation together as a family of three, today, for the first time again, I decided to attend the invitation from Ellen and Paul.This dinner even surprised me, because Dylan was there too—with Maria.“Hi.” Maria greeted me calmly.Actually, Maria and I were never close. Our relationship used to feel more like rivals. Back when she couldn’t have Dylan, she often looked at me sharply. But she never did anything bad to me.After the misunderstanding before was resolved, Maria and I can now talk more comfortably.“Hi. Have you been here long, Maria?”She shook her head. I glanced at Dylan beside her—he stayed silent, but his attention was clearly fixed on her.“We just arrived about ten minutes ago,” Maria replied.All this time, I had been quietly observing her. After the attack she went thro

    SebastianWith so much enthusiasm, I always spend my time doing activities with my small family. Every time I see Cassandra and Miles’s faces, it makes me happy.This is something I’ve wanted for a long time, and now I finally have it.After working hard again and again, my efforts and my apologies were truly accepted.Because of that, I’ve become someone who now believes in God more deeply.The sound of bells echoed loudly, again and again, and I glanced to my side. Cassandra and Miles were still immersed in their prayers. My heart filled with relief once more.I’m lucky to have them.Since then, I’ve come to believe in God again—also because of Cassandra, who brought me back. From her, I learned how she became more devoted and prayed more often in church, especially since the time Miles was ill.Now, Cassandra and I regularly donate to the church managed by Father Hans. They handle the funds transparently and help people in need.When Cassandra opened her eyes, I panicked for a mome

    CassandraI went to the café earlier than Sebastian and Miles, because they were at a store buying a few things Miles wanted.Since my condition wasn’t very good right now, I couldn’t keep accompanying them. So they asked me to wait at the café across from the store.I took a few deep breaths. The stiffness in my back and shoulders was quite noticeable. Even though I hadn’t done much today. Yesterday we did look for shells, but only for two hours.After that, we just painted and did relaxing activities.A waiter approached me.“Hot chocolate,” I said.Right now, I felt like drinking it—it might actually help me relax more.While waiting for my order, I kept watching Sebastian and Miles. Sometimes I could still see them, and every time I did, I felt more at ease.A smile appeared on my face automatically. I was sure the two of them were enjoying their time together.When my drink arrived, I leaned back against the chair and tried to relax more. Slowly, it worked, and I felt relieved.I

    Cassandra“Is she really okay?” I asked anxiously.I know what it feels like to be on the verge of death. It’s terrifying. It can become a trauma that keeps haunting you.When I heard that Maria had gone through an attempted murder, my body tensed immediately. I was truly worried that something might happen to her.That’s why I contacted Dylan. He was by Maria’s side, protecting her.“Honestly, I’m not sure about what she said, Sandra.”I nodded slowly. I understood very well that it sounded forced. Just like what happened to me—I struggled to get through it calmly. I tried not to make others worry.So I kept saying that I was fine. And Dylan is the kind of man who understands that. I’m sure that even if Maria isn’t truly okay, Dylan will stay by her side and make her feel safe.In the past, when Dylan did that for me, he did it sincerely. Thinking about that, I let out a breath.“Dylan, if you need anything, you have to tell me.”Hearing his laugh, I felt slightly dismissed. Well, af

    CassandrI couldn’t forget the moment I was being treated by the doctor, Sebastian kept holding my hand tightly, as if giving me courage, because I was terrified in that situation.My forehead was injured and needed stitches.I had survived that dangerous incident. I clenched my hand tightly, think

    CassandraA few days had passed, and not only had I not seen Sebastian, but I also hadn’t spoken to Dylan.It just happened naturally, like a great distance had suddenly formed between us.He still sent me messages, but always with the excuse that he was busy, so we barely saw each other.He left e

But then, she met Inggrid, and everything fell apart.I had already warned that woman to leave if she didn’t want to be destroyed. She did look like Cassandra, but she was clearly different, she wa

    CassandraAfter thinking about it for quite a while, I now sat frozen in front of him. In this room, it was just the two of us, with a cup of warm tea prepared by Genna.Everything felt so excessive, and even after five minutes here, we hadn’t started talking, even the smallest movement felt heavy.
