Sebastian

I didn’t know how this happened, but I guess it was also a kind of fortune. When James called me to deliver the news about Grandpa, Cassandra overheard it as well.

Cassandra’s eyes trembled, and she rose from her seat. “What happened to Grandpa?”

“He fainted. It seems his condition has worsened.”

I hadn’t expected this. The old man who was always so sharp in arguing with me had always seemed healthy. I thought he would live a very long life.

Now, when I looked at Cassandra, I could see how deeply the news about my grandfather affected her. Her hands were clasped tightly together.

Then I remembered, Cassandra and Grandpa had always been close. They often talked together and seemed genuinely happy. She had been spoiled and praised by him so much that others sometimes thought she was his real granddaughter.

Grandpa had always been by her side, defending her, and furious whenever anyone wronged Cassandra. He had never accepted Isabella, not because he was narrow-minded, as I onc

    SebastianI exhaled. Cassandra didn’t understand me at all, how hard I was trying for us to be together.“You’re not going to give me my phone?” Cassandra asked again.She looked at me sharply, and I hesitated to hand it over. My mind ran through all the things that could happen.The doctor who checked on her told me Cassandra was under stress, she shouldn’t be subjected to too much pressure. Memories from years ago resurfaced: how she had ended up taking so many sleeping pills.She had fooled everyone with her fake death, but she really had overdosed. Honestly, it terrified me… I didn’t want anything like that to happen again.Then, clenching my hand, I looked at her. “I’ll give you your phone.”I saw her expression shift, so full of happiness just because I said that. Why don’t you ever show that expression when you’re with me? Are you that happy to get your phone just so you can contact Dylan?It made me feel insecure, made me start thinking maybe I was beneath Dylan.Thinking too

    Cassandra“Are you feeling better?” Sebastian touched my forehead.Brushing his hand away, I didn’t want him to act as if he cared about me—watching over me, worrying about me. Since I’ve been here, I’ve been under so much pressure that it’s left me feeling utterly exhausted.With a fever and a slight headache, I lay on the bed. Even though he had called the doctor, it didn’t make me want to speak to him.“Your temperature has gone down. You’ll be fine soon, Sandra,” he continued.I stared at him, hoping he would leave my room quickly, letting me rest with only Miles by my side.“Will Mom be okay?” Miles held my hand, making me look at him and smile.“Mom just needs a little rest,” I replied.Because I had just taken medicine, I was starting to feel drowsy.He gave me a small hug with his childlike voice. “Then Mom should rest.”He let go of the hug and smiled. “I want Mom to get well soon.”Miles was always with me, I took care of him and spoiled him a little. Whatever I usually did,

    CassandraWell, I should’ve realized earlier why Alden was here. My feelings were so uneasy, and everything became clear when Sebastian asked me to come to his study while saying he didn’t want Miles to know.He hugged me once I was inside his study. I could allow it if it was just him being overwhelmed with emotions. Anyone else would surely notice it too.I almost let him do that. I pulled away from his embrace, and he looked at me.“So, that child really is mine?” his voice trembled.“No. The child from you was miscarried when I overdosed on medicine.”I spoke quickly.As I recalled it, at that time I was in critical condition. I had been bleeding, and when I opened my eyes, I thought I had lost the baby.The fetus inside my womb turned out to be very strong; he managed to survive and kept growing well. That’s Miles, he’s an extraordinary child, and Sebastian doesn’t need to know that.“This is my child with Dylan. We had a child right away because I was devastated by the loss.”Yo

    CassandraWithout my phone, I couldn’t contact anyone. That man had cruelly confiscated it as if I were a child.I had no intention of staying here long, even though I was actually very familiar with this place. But this room had become the place where I secluded myself in loneliness, ignored by my husband and his family.The dining room wasn’t pleasant either. Even the sofa where I used to wait for him, every time I looked at it, my chest tightened.I could never forget that it was also in that place where he stripped me naked to sleep with me.The damn man didn’t understand the trauma crawling all over my body and still kept saying how much he wanted to be with me, to love me.Bullshit.I didn’t want to listen to his words anymore. I wanted this to end as soon as possible.This whole situation clearly affected me; I couldn’t calm down and kept pressing my hands together over and over. Earlier, being with him made my heart pound. I was truly angry, and then, unexpectedly, I saw him c

    SebastianI looked at her. She should have known how impatient I was for this morning to come.The dress I gave her suited her perfectly, and her loose hair made her look so beautiful. I should have realized long ago just how beautiful she really is.Looking back, I truly had been deceiving myself.While she was busy paying attention to Miles, I kept smiling as I watched her. Having experienced loss, I wanted to treat her with care, but that also made me paranoid. If what happened in the past were to happen again, I wouldn’t be able to endure it.And then, my feelings toward Miles—how close I felt to him, were strange enough. I hoped Alden would bring me good news.“Eat this.”I placed a piece of meat onto Miles’s plate, cutting it into portions small enough for his tiny mouth. I smiled at him, but he looked at me with a skeptical expression. Then, he sat there staring at me intently.“Uncle, how long will we stay here? Are you a bad person?”He was still just a child, and I knew he m
