Cassandra

Something different happened this time. Every time I wake up, I usually feel a chill wrapping around my body, making me shiver.

At that moment, I remembered falling asleep on the sofa—curled up from the weight of the sorrow drowning me. I thought this moment would be no different than usual.

But this time, I felt a different kind of warmth—something slightly over the top of my body. Then my eyes caught sight of Sebastian holding me, with me lying in his arms.

I rubbed my eyes several times and looked again at the calm face beside me. Not once had this man ever slept beside me, not even after we had been physically intimate. This morning was a surprise—one that left me speechless.

This strange moment made my body instinctively pull away from him. This was wrong.

    SebastianI wasn’t calm. I didn’t even know why I felt so restless like this—filled with anger after running into that man.One thing was certain: I wasn’t going to just let this go. As I got into the car harshly, I immediately ordered Alden,"Find out why Dylan is in this city.""Yes, Sir."In fact, I realized I was bothered by what he’d said earlier, like he somehow had the right to feel that way, like he was the most important person in Cassandra’s life. He knew I was Cassandra’s husband, and she loved me.It wasn’t that I wanted to be here, but my body only moved by habit, following orders without spirit as usual, and the atmosphere in this room was cold. There was no conversation between the two of us, and I knew Grandpa blamed Cassandra’s death on me.I knew the reason her stepmother sold her to that bastard—back then, Cassandra really wanted to divorce me. And that woman would have allowed it if she became the wife of that middle-aged man.They didn’t want to lose anything, but

Breakfast was ready, and looking at the beautiful meal did nothing to stir my appetite.“Last week, I took a cooking class.” She pulled out the chair in front of me, sitting down with her hands gently cupping her chin. “I want to always cook for you when we’re married.”She keeps pushing herself to ‘fix’ our relationship. but for some reason, it only annoys me. Our relationship hasn’t improved. Not only does she feel so different from before, but I also know I’ve changed too.I turned my eyes to the food she pushed closer to me.“Eat, Sebastian.”For a moment, I picked up the cutlery, but I couldn’t do it. I stood up from my seat instead.“You’d better not do this again.”I heard her chair scrape harshly against the floo

    CassandraIt was a bright day. I felt like my days were becoming brighter and more joyful. Just two days ago, I had won another case I was handling—again.It was an achievement that earned me a new nickname: the beautiful lawyer with the mask. Getting the permit for that was pretty complicated at first, but I managed to secure my identity and everything else.On the other hand, they also knew me as the lawyer with anxiety.I had thought about it, considered it over and over. This wouldn’t last forever, but I had to create a version of myself that was completely different. The strong Cassandra.This morning, I was already at the park, watching him laughing with Dylan.“Miles! Come here.”I raised my hand, making him immediately notice my presence, which made him happy. With a wide smile, he ran to me and hugged me tightly.“Mom!”He was my sweet boy, the one I gave birth to four years ago. Miles was truly like an angel, just seeing him made all the pain of giving birth disappear.His h
