ARLENE'S POV

I was halfway through packing when Mesh quietly stepped into the room.

She didn’t say anything at first—just stood there, watching me fold my clothes like I could somehow control my life by making everything neat.

“Arlene…” she finally said, her voice soft, almost careful. “I’m going to miss you.”

My hands paused mid-fold.

Six months.

I let out a slow breath. “Yeah… it’s been that long, huh?”

“Feels longer,” she said with a faint smile, but her eyes didn’t match it.

It had been six

  • The Woman He Broke   88 – She Came Back to Leave

    MAGO’S POVSix long months passed… and I was slowly losing my mind.Six months of not knowing where Arlene was. Six months of wondering if she was safe—if they were safe.Because yes… my wife was pregnant.And that alone was enough to keep me awake at night.I still remember the exact moment I found out.Back then, I was too busy arranging Nay Naina’s bypass operation to look for Arlene right away. I told myself she needed space—that maybe leaving was her way of breathing.So I let her.I trusted her.In all the years we were together, Arlene had never once made me feel unloved. Not even once. And that kind of love… I believed it didn’t just disappear overnight.I thought maybe… maybe this distance would help us fix what was broken.But when Arlene left, something in me cracked too.Not just because she disappeared without a word—but because of the truth I uncovered about myself.Accepting that Naina was my real mother wasn’t difficult. If anything… it felt right.I had always felt

My stomach—no longer something I could hide—rose gently beneath my loose shirt. Every movement reminded me of the life growing inside me… and the mess waiting for me back home.Mesh had been there through all of it.She stayed with us in the company apartment, helped us settle in, helped me survive the days when I didn’t even know how to take care of myself.At first, we lied to her.We told her I just wanted to accompany

  • The Woman He Broke   86 - Final Call for Arlene

    MAGO’S POVWe really thought this would be easy.It wasn’t.Learning the Wonder Girls choreography felt like trying to force my body to speak a language it didn’t understand. Every sway of the hips, every flick of the wrist—it all felt wrong on me. Forced. Unnatural. But the others kept pushing, stubborn as ever… so I stayed.Even if every movement made my skin crawl.“This is pointless,” Stuart muttered, dropping his arms in frustration.“Stop whining.” Marco scratched his head. “At least you and Patricia are okay now. You’re only doing this to make her happy, that’s why you’re going along with it.”Stuart exhaled hard, wiping sweat from his face. “It’s not just for her.” He shook his head. “You guys had my back. I’m just returning the favor.”There was weight in that. Gratitude. Loyalty.“If my wife weren’t pregnant,” he added, voice softer this time, “we could’ve just asked her to teach us.”Kaz snapped his fingers. “Then let’s find someone who can.”Marco gave him a look. “Yeah? An

  • The Woman He Broke   85- Tear Me Apart

    ARLENE’S POVTwo weeks had passed since I left, and still… nothing.Not a single call. Not even a message.I told myself not to expect anything—but I did. Every single day, I waited. Every time my phone buzzed, my heart would jump, only to fall just as quickly when it wasn’t him. I kept telling myself he would come after me. That he would at least try.But Dessa’s visa had already been processed. Our documents were complete. Everything was ready for Japan.And still… he didn’t come.Didn’t even look for me.I didn’t want to call Janine. She needed rest. Patricia had her own problems too. I had no one I could run to with this.So it was just me.Me and this silence he left behind.I stared at my phone, my grip tightening around it.Just one call, I told myself. Just hear his voice… and that’s it.Be

  • The Woman He Broke   84 - Five Broken Men and One Bad Idea

    MAGO’S POVI didn’t even know how we all ended up back at the bar. No birthday. No celebration. Just five grown men in a VIP room, all looking like life had personally dragged us through something we weren’t ready for.No music. No energy. Just alcohol… and the kind of silence that only shows up when things are falling apart.Kaz broke it first. “So… Stuart. You and Pat?”Stuart let out a breath like he’d been holding it all night. He swirled his drink slowly, eyes fixed on the glass. “We’re trying, bro. But she’s focused on Lexy right now. Kid comes first.”Kaz nodded. “That’s still something. At least she stayed.”Then his gaze shifted. “Marco. Mr. Romantic. Why do you look like you just got dumped by your own love story?”Marco scratched the back of his head, already looking guilty. “Janine saw my messages

  • The Woman He Broke   83 - She Left

    MAGO’S POVI dragged my hands down my face, trying to steady the storm building inside me. It didn’t work. Nothing made sense anymore. Nothing felt real.“H-How did this even happen?” My voice came out rough, almost unfamiliar to my own ears. I couldn’t look at her. I couldn’t look at either of them. “Why didn’t you tell me?”“I-I’m sorry,” Aling Naina whispered, her voice already breaking. Tears slipped down her cheeks, but she didn’t even try to wipe them away. “I didn’t know how. I was scared, Mago. Scared that if I told you… you’d turn away from me.” She swallowed hard. “And I—I was already content just being near you. Taking care of you… even if you didn’t know I was your mother.”That hit something in me—but not enough to soften what was already burning.“But why?” My vo

  • The Woman He Broke   80- Run, Baby, Run

    MAGO’S POVBuying the rose and the jewelry was easy. Both shops were along the way home, almost mocking me with how simple it was to pick objects meant to fix something far more complicated. I climbed the stairs with an unfamiliar urgency, laid everything neatly on t

  • The Woman He Broke   73 - On the Record, Under the Desk

    I didn’t expect what Mago had in mind—not here, not now—but the adrenaline coursing through my veins made it impossible to resist. After that heated encounter in the office, I kept replaying the moment, wondering when it would happen again. I didn’t imagine it would be this soon—or inside a cabinet

    *Arlene’s POV*Mago sat behind his desk, massaging his temple as he read through the financial report I handed him. The tightness in his jaw told me all I needed to know before he even spoke. The numbers were bad, worse than I expected. The newly opened bar across tow

  • The Woman He Broke   10 – Boundaries and Bargains

    *MAGO’s POV*It was strange, even unsettling, to find myself talking about my preferences in women with her. I’d never discussed it with anyone before, but something about her drew me in. Her boldness, her determination—it ignited something inside me that I couldn’t deny. If only she wasn’t a virgin,
