POV 3

“Welcome, Sir.”

Sebastian ignored the maid who had just greeted him at the house, even though he had known her for a long time.

He entered with a feeling of discomfort. As usual, this place wasn’t good for him, the air felt so dry it was as if he couldn’t breathe.

Coming here was like a punishment for him, but he couldn’t keep ignoring his grandfather. As he reached the dining room, Sebastian saw his grandfather and his mother already there.

Despite his discomfort, he sat down at a spot far from them, which immediately drew looks of disapproval on their faces.

He ate the dinner set before him without enthusiasm. Sebastian was merely waiting for the right moment to leave this place. Maybe just a few bites, more than that, he didn’t want to hear the kind of arguments that could easily turn into war.

“You must be very busy, since I heard there’s a problem at one of the company’s branches.”

Anderson looked at him with his usual hostility. Everyone already knew that he considered Seb

  • The Wife He Never Wanted   Chapter 255

    Cassandra“God, thank You for still granting me life, for allowing someone as broken as me to have a child like Miles. This Christmas as well, I am grateful because You have made Miles’s condition even better.”“God, I hope my life from now on will continue to improve and be filled with happiness.”I immediately rose from my kneeling position after praying, then sat on the sofa and gazed at the sky, snow falling outside the window of my room.After finishing all my activities today, I sank into my emotions. There was an understanding within me that I am becoming better, even though this year has truly been full of surprises.I have always tried to keep growing for the better, to endure, and to focus on my son and on the life ahead. At this time, I can do anything by relying on myself.It reminded me of memories of past troubles. I took a deep breath while closing my eyes.Scenes from the past repeating themselves…Something forced my body, making my hands tremble, tightening my breath

    CassandraJust by watching the snow continue to fall outside, I can already feel the cold. I know it isn’t as severe as before, but still, I haven’t given Miles permission to go outside.I hold his hand and sit in the living room, where the large Christmas tree glows with its decorative lights. The Christmas atmosphere still feels warm, even though it’s just the two of us.Miles straightens his clothes, a green sweater like a Christmas tree and a red hat. I’m wearing the same as him, making sure that we truly share the same happiness.The Christmas songs we play make the holiday atmosphere even stronger. Since Miles was not even a year old, he has celebrated Christmas with a wide smile. I still remember—back then, he peed on Dylan’s clothes, and everyone laughed at the incident.Now, it’s just the two of us. In front of the Christmas tree, we take photos. It feels a little different, but the two of us remain inseparable.Maybe trying to convince myself that this truly doesn’t affect m

  • The Wife He Never Wanted   Chapter 253

    CassandraPreparing for Christmas wasn’t as hectic as in previous years because there were no guests at all to welcome. I mean, not as many as the Kingsley family used to have in the past.Here, I don’t have many friends. Just coworkers who know me on a surface level. Even so, I don’t feel empty at all. I have Miles and Nakka. Genna had to return to her hometown because she needed to see her children and grandchildren.She wanted to stay here, but I encouraged her to go home. Having a family is something wonderful.And to fill my quiet time without any work, aside from playing with Miles, I’ve grown fond of watching dramas on my tablet.Enjoying this calm moment gives me the chance to understand other things. Sometimes, as I watch the drama I’m following, I wonder whether something extraordinary like what happens to them will ever happen to me.I set my tablet down and walk toward the window when something white catches my attention.The first snowfall, so peaceful to look at. My brea

    CassandraI had taken care of him for two days, and it felt relieving to finally be free from having to care for him anymore. He had recovered.And all day long, I didn’t see him at all. I managed it very well, leaving before breakfast and coming home earlier than usual, so after playing with Miles, I went straight to my room to rest, and perhaps it could be said that I was hiding from him.I was just a little scared to meet him. Maybe that’s how it could be described.When he hugged me without a shirt on, I could feel his skin so clearly. His strong, warm body, his distinctive scent… ah, I could remember that moment so vividly.Especially his scent, that was what made me unable to trust myself. How could I remember it so clearly, as if it were deeply embedded in my consciousness?I didn’t want to assume that it happened because I still had feelings for him.Unsure of myself, I avoided him. My heart was anxious, it was terrifying to make the same mistake again.Fortunately, until the

    SebastianIt had been two days since I lay in my room because I was sick, feverish.In my entire life, I had never acted spoiled just because of a fever; I even kept going to work. But right now, showing myself to be weak and a little spoiled wasn’t a problem.“Wouldn’t it be better if you were treated at the hospital instead?” Alden’s voice was extremely annoying to me.My gaze, which had been directed at Cassandra standing in the corner of my room getting a drink, immediately shifted to Alden.“You would recover faster.”“Be quiet, Alden,” I ordered him.The smile on his face was irritating. I knew exactly what he was doing, he was trying to tease me.As Cassandra walked toward me, I glared at Alden, warning him not to ruin my happiness.I did lie to Cassandra, enjoying the way she treated me. Every time she checked on my condition, I realized that she still cared about me. Based on that, I thought I might be able to bring our relationship even closer.“This is your water.” She hand

    CassandraAs the warmth of his body spread to me, I felt my heart beating wildly, as if it were about to burst out of my chest. I struggled to breathe; panic rose as my hands tried to push him away, but Sebastian held them back.His smile was sweet—yeah, that was the judgment I automatically gave it. And that sweet smile felt like a weapon, one that made me unable to refuse anything he did.He placed my hand on his cheek, then spoke softly, fucking making me lose control even more.“Feel it. Do I really have a fever?” His brow furrowed slightly; the way he responded showed he was teasing me. “You’re so attentive to me, Sandra. Even I didn’t realize it.”His words left me standing there for a long moment, as if I were defeated, because I myself didn’t even understand why I noticed that this man had a fever.It’s been so long since I kept paying attention to his every move. I thought it had been ages since I would know anything about him the way I used to.Not wanting to admit my defeat
