Serena’s Point of View

“So, I heard your entire team went out to dinner with the CEO.”

I looked up from the coffee I was making to find Noah leaning against the break room door.

“Yes.”

I added a spoonful of sugar to my coffee.

“And you went too?”

I gave him a strange look.

“Yes.”

Noah walked over to me and dramatically placed a hand over his chest.

“You know what, Tech Girl...”

Here we go again.

“It hurts a little. I invite you out and you say no. Mr. Henrix invites you, and you actually go.”

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   148. You're meeting my parents.

    Serena's Point of ViewSo this is where Adrian grew up.I stood beside Becky, staring at the enormous mansion in front of us.For someone else, this mansion might be a portrait of how powerful and wealthy the Henrix family really was.But when I stared at it now, I didn't feel any of that.All I could think about was him.Inside these walls, a little Adrian had once lived happily with his mother.He must have run through the corridors, through that massive garden, laughing all the way.He must have made so many beautiful memories with his mama.And then, inside this very same house, he had been forced to watch his mama's life slowly fall apart.Until he lost her completely.“Serena?”I blinked.Becky was looking at me.“You okay?”“Yeah.”I smiled.“Let's go.”The party was in the garden.Everything was elegantly decorated with fairy lights and flowers.The place was already filled with people.Yet it took me only five seconds to see him.Adrian.He stood several feet away, talking to

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   147. This Year, I Might.

    Adrian's Point of ViewEven after going to the office, I couldn't stop worrying.I had canceled my entire schedule yesterday to be with her, so there was a hell of a lot of work for me to do. I managed to finish some of it by staying awake most of last night.But there was still so much to do.Yet, here I was, sending her a text every half an hour to check on her and thinking about her whenever I wasn't.I let out a sigh, leaning back in my chair.I had been trying to read the contents of the file in front of me for a good twenty minutes now, but I still couldn't fully grasp any of it.Finally, I understood that trying to work like this with half my usual efficiency was pointless.It would be better to go see her myself and then come back to work.Maybe that way, I would be able to focus better.And check on her too.I had been keeping a little distance from Serena lately.Because of Noah.But today, I didn't actually care.Before I even reached their workspace, I saw that the door wa

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   146. All Of Them Are Just A Part Of Your Past

    Serena's Point of ViewI frowned at the unfamiliar number on the screen.For a second, I considered letting it ring.But eventually, I answered.“Hello?”“Serena?”My entire body went still because I knew that voice too well.“Mom?”It was Rowen's mother, and I hadn't heard from her since I left Rowen.My fingers tightened around the phone.“I don't think we have anything to talk about.”“Wait. Please. Just listen to me for a moment.”I closed my eyes.“What is it?”“Rowen told us you're about to get divorced.”I said nothing.“He said you went to court today.”“Yes.”She sighed.“Serena, can't you come home?”My eyes opened.“What?”“You know, darling, these kinds of things happen in families. It's normal.”A husband cheating on his wife? How could that possibly be normal? What kind of logic was that?“People make mistakes. Rowen made a mistake. I know that. I'm not saying what he did was right.”A mistake?“But he was the man you loved, Serena. You've been married for so long. Can't

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   145. I’m Proud of You.

    Adrian's Point of ViewSerena didn't say much since we left the courthouse.Neither did I.I knew what she was feeling.She had so much hope for today.She believed she was finally going to get her freedom today.But that asshole had found another way to keep her tied to him.For a few more weeks, at least.I glanced at her as I drove.She was leaning back against the seat, resting her head and looking out the window.I didn't want to ask if she was okay.I knew she wasn't.And making her talk about it wasn't going to make her feel better.A few minutes later, she turned to me. Maybe she sensed the familiar road ahead of us.“Are we going to Uncle Wang's?”“Yes.”“Why?”“Because we haven't had lunch, and Uncle Wang said he hasn't seen you for a long time.”“Oh...”A few minutes later, I stopped the car in front of the small restaurant.Uncle Wang looked delighted when we walked in.I knew he was always delighted to see me, but right now, that wide smile was obviously for Serena.“Ther

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   144. I Belong to Myself.

    Serena's Point of ViewI saw him the moment he walked into the courtroom.Rowen.My fingers tightened around each other on my lap.For a few seconds, I simply looked at him.This man used to be my whole world.But now, looking at him, I didn't feel anything.Anything except the strange heaviness in my heart.Maybe because this was supposed to be the official end of everything between us.Forever.Rowen saw me.His steps slowed.Our eyes met.His eyes softened in an instant.Then, the next moment, they filled with so much longing.But right then, his gaze shifted beside me.To the man who was sitting beside me.Adrian.The softness, the longing in his eyes disappeared.His jaw tightened.I looked at Adrian.He didn't react.He sat calmly beside me, dressed in a dark suit as usual, his arms crossed over his chest.When I looked back in Rowen's direction, he was staring at us, his eyes burning with fury.However, he had to walk away when his lawyer guided him toward their side of the cou

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   143. Tomorrow, I’ll Be Free.

    Serena's Point of View“Serena?”Noah gently patted me on the shoulder.“Huh?” I blinked.“I've been calling your name. What world did you get lost in?”Your jealous big brother's world, I thought quietly.“Sorry. What did you say?” I asked, putting on a smile.Noah narrowed his eyes at me.“Were you even listening?”“Of course I was.”“Liar.”I laughed.“Okay... okay... Maybe I got distracted for a second. I apologize.”“What were you saying?”He frowned at me for a second, but then began to talk.“I was saying we need to celebrate.”“And I was saying we already did.”“Fine.” He shrugged. “Then we'll celebrate something else.”“Like what?”His grin immediately returned, even wider this time.“It's a secret.”“A secret?” My eyebrow rose.“Yes. But you'll know soon.”He pointed a finger at me, the expression in his eyes growing serious.“And don't say no when you get the invitation, okay?”I stared at him suspiciously.“Invitation?”“Yeah. Wait for it.”“What big secret needs an invita

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   3. One Chance. That’s All You Get.

    Serena’s Point of View“Serena… can you hear me?”Rowen’s voice was the first thing I heard as the darkness slowly faded and I tried to open my eyes.I shut my eyes again as tightly as possible.I wished I could shut my ears too, so I wouldn’t have to listen to his voice. But I couldn’t move my ha

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   2. You can keep him.

    Serena’s Point of ViewAll the lies I had believed so far… all the false hopes I had clung to as if my life depended on them…How had I let myself believe this for so long?It was indeed my husband inside Room 1243, naked, without even a thread of fabric covering him.“Who the hell?!” Rowen’s voice

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   1. Room 1243

    Serena’s Point of ViewI sat outside the gynecologist’s office, staring at the clock nervously. It was almost 11:30, but Rowen was still not here.I checked our chat again, but there was no reply; he hadn’t even seen my messages.I called him. It took so long before he finally answered. “Serena?” H

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   8. It’s You…

    Adrian’s Point of ViewI returned to the office after the meeting at 4Axis.There were documents waiting. There were always documents waiting.I went through one file, trying to read the figures carefully, but I wasn’t focused.My mind kept returning to the restaurant.To her.I hadn’t expected to
