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 142. A Silent Admission
Serena's Point of ViewWarmth...Comfortable and addictive.A heartbeat...Calm and peaceful.And I knew exactly who they belonged to.I slowly opened my eyes.My head was resting against his chest, one of my hands curled loosely near his stomach.And Adrian's arm...It was wrapped around me.Firmly.The careful distance that had been between us when we went to sleep was somehow no longer there.I didn't move.I didn't even breathe properly for a few seconds.Then I pressed my cheek back against his T-shirt, letting my whole body sink deeper into his warmth.I had no idea how we'd ended up like this.Had he pulled me closer in his sleep?Or had I moved into his arms?But either way, I didn't mind.I loved him.And I loved being close to him.Last night, he'd told me that I mattered to him more than anything else in the world.He'd told me he wouldn't hesitate to give even his life to protect me.And yet...He still hadn't realized the true meaning behind all those words.A smile slowl
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 141. You’ll Never Be Alone.
Adrian's Point of View“Here you are.”I looked up.Serena stood in front of me with a small pile of clothes in her hands.I recognized them immediately.A T-shirt and sweatpants I'd left here the last time I'd stayed with her.I'd almost forgotten about them, but for some reason, seeing them still in her apartment did something strange to my heart.She could have simply packed them into a bag and given them back to me.But she hadn't.She had kept them in her own closet.As if I was also part of her home.“Thanks.”I took them from her.“You can shower first,” she said. “I'll go after you.”I nodded and headed toward the bathroom.Tonight had been fucking exhausting.Not physically.Emotionally.I had sat in meetings literally all day, dealing with millions of euros, arguing and negotiating with people more cunning than foxes, making decisions that affected hundreds of employees.But I hadn't felt this exhausted.I stood under the shower, letting the hot water run over me.It helped.
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 140. It Was Never Gratitude
Serena's Point of ViewToo much.It was simply too much to learn in one night.The divorce hearing.The anonymous messages.Riverston four years ago.The man I found bleeding on the side of a road.It had been Adrian.Adrian all along.I was staring at him, and he was anxiously waiting for me to speak.But it was as if I'd lost the ability to.I had no idea my life had been this tangled with his.It felt like he had been appearing in different chapters of my life long before I ever felt the need to make my life all about him.I'm only breathing today because you saved my life, Serena.Suddenly, his words began replaying in my mind, overpowering all the other thoughts.I abruptly stood.Adrian moved immediately.His hand closed around my wrist.“Serena.”I looked down at him.The fear in his eyes startled me.I could think of only one other time I'd seen this much fear in those eyes.The day Michela pushed me down and I was bleeding right in front of my apartment.I let out a sigh.“I
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 139. I Never Forgot Your Face.
Adrian's Point of ViewIt took me a moment to recover from her words.And to put together all the pieces of my shattered heart.Wasn't this the exact reason I'd kept all of this hidden from her until now?Because I'd been afraid of the possibility that she would feel this way.And somehow, that was precisely what had happened.However, I wasn't ready to give up.I let out a breath and reached for her hand again.This time, without thinking too much, I held it anyway.“Serena...”I took a breath.“Back then... I only knew your name. That was it. But from the moment I left that hospital, I wanted to find you. "I tightened my fingers around hers.“Not to fucking repay you. I wasn't some rich lunatic who thought everything could be settled with money.”“I just wanted to see you.”My voice lowered.“To look into your eyes and tell you that no one had ever gone to that extent to save me.”“Then why...”“You may not remember my face. It was covered in blood and wounds anyway. But I remember
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 7. Adrian Henrix
Serena’s Point of View“Sir… I didn’t realize you had arrived.”Marco’s tone shifted instantly into something respectful and polite as he stepped toward the table by the window.The tall man in the dark suit didn’t respond. He simply looked at the customer, his eyes completely emotionless.I turned
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 6. When He Stepped In
Serena’s Point of View“For table seven!”Lucy called from the kitchen, and I quickly picked up the tray.It was a Friday evening, my third day at Lena’s. With Lena suddenly ill, Marco was managing the restaurant, and the whole place felt slightly off.I made my way through the crowded tables.The
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 5. Starting Over Alone
Serena’s Point of ViewFinding a place to stay wasn’t easy, and I didn’t have the luxury to be picky.After a few calls and visits, I finally found a room in a shared apartment.Fortunately, they only required the monthly rent as a deposit.The place was small, just enough for a bed, a table, and a
When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me 4. You Lost Me Today
Serena’s Point of ViewI shouldn’t have agreed.That was the first thought that came to my mind as I walked to the café where I was supposed to meet Rowen.Last night, I went back to that place I once called home, only to grab some of my clothes and belongings. I didn’t stay there, even when Rowen
