Selena's Pov

The drive to St. John’s Hospital was silent. On a normal day, I’d feel a little excitement whenever I had to visit my father, but today everything just felt…blank.

I could feel Aiden’s gaze on me, and I knew he had something to say. I leaned my head against the car window, staring outside, not wishing to converse.

“Selena, if you don’t feel too alright, you know you can skip the visit. I can send your father a message or something. Don’t worry, he’s getting better,” Aiden said, hi

  • VOWS OF DECEPTION; THE CEO I HATE   Ablaze 11

    Selena's Pov The first thing I felt was pain. A slow, annoying throb at the side of my head, like something heavy had been dropped on it. Then the sharp smell of antiseptic filled my nose. I blinked a few times until the blurry white ceiling cleared above me.I was in the hospital, again. Hospitals made me sick.I groaned softly and tried to move my hand, only to find something warm resting on it.“Selena?” a deep, calm voice called.I turned my head weakly. Aiden was sitting on a chair right beside my bed. His hair was scattered like he’d been dragging his hands through it. His eyes were red, tired, and heavy.“You’re awake,” he voiced, sounding like someone who had been holding his breath for hours.My throat was dry when I spoke. “What… happened?”“You inhaled too much smoke. You passed out.” He said, leaning closer. “You scared the hell out of me.”I tried to sit up but he gently pushed me back. “Calm down. You need to rest.”“Aiden…the fire…” My voice broke, as the incident of

I can send your father a message or something. Don’t worry, he’s getting better,” Aiden said, his voice laced with concern. It softened my heart, just a little, despite my initial decision to push him away.“Like I said for the umpteenth time, I’m fine, Aiden. These things happen, so mine shouldn’t make a difference. Others are surviving…so why shouldn’t I?” I let out bitterly, even as tears stung my eyes at the memory of Dante’s coldness and his newfound closeness with Camille.A painful chuckle escaped my lips, contradicting everything I’d just said. Nothing about me was fine. Everything

    Selena's POV “Camille.”The name hit a nerve as my palms immediately became clammy. My mouth felt dry, and I could barely breathe.“Are you alright, ma’am?” the doctor asked with concern.“Yes,” I managed to say.“Is there some kind of misunderstanding going on?” The doctor added.“Yes, there is. I am Mrs. Devereux. If there’s anyone in there with Dante, it’s an imposter. Get the guards,” I commanded, clenching my fist.I could feel Aiden’s gaze on me as the doctor seemed slightly shaken by my tone.“Mr. Devereux had several head concussions. I figured he would have temporary amnesia and informed Mr. Aiden. I didn’t know it would get to this extent…” The doctor pushed his glasses backward.I threw Aiden an accusatory stare. “You knew.”“That he would have temporary amnesia, yes. But that Camille would be here, no,” he muttered.“And you didn’t see it fit to inform me?” I gritted.“You were already going haywire. What would have happened if I told you that your husband dearest might n

    Selena POV Bright light hit my face as I slowly opened my eyes, squinting at several intervals. I groaned, sitting up on the bed as a pang of headache gripped me. Where was I? “You’re awake.” A familiar voice spoke, causing me to sharply look to my side. My eyes met with a pair of blue orbs staring at me intently, filled with worry. “Aiden.” I raised a brow. “Look, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean for things to end up this way. I only wanted to help. I didn’t know that Dante would get hurt in the end.” He sighed. Upon hearing the name Dante, memories of the previous day came rushing in from the accident to seeing him being placed on a stretcher, drenched in blood. I sat up immediately. “Where is he?” He pursed his lips, his expression turning grim—which made me figure that something was wrong. “I want to see him now. Take me to the hospital, Aiden.” I pleaded, pushing myself out of bed. “The doctor isn’t allowing anyone in.” Screw that. “I don’t care. I’m his wife, and I have eve

Let’s go in and discuss this” he said and tried to touch me.I pointed a finger at him, “don’t you dare!
