Adrian's Point of View

I kissed her on the lips.

I hugged her to sleep.

I'd told her she should start cooking for two.

And just a few hours ago, I'd been sitting on her sofa, kissing her whenever I felt like it.

How the hell was I supposed to make all of those things less visible?

I opened my eyes and looked at Watson.

“So what exactly are you suggesting?”

He glanced at me briefly before returning his attention to the road.

“Sir?”

“Should I stop going to her place?”

He didn't answer.

“Should I

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   177. Just Because I Want You

    Serena’s Point of ViewFor a moment, Adrian was completely still, his eyes simply staring at me.My heart began to race.Is he going to say no?Was it a bad decision to say something like that when he was utterly exhausted and dealing with such a serious issue at the company?Before I could retreat any further into those thoughts, Adrian’s hand gently cupped my cheek, making me look directly into his eyes.“Angel… do you even know what you’re telling me right now?”I took a deep breath.“I know exactly what I’m saying, Adrian.”“Are you sure you want this?”I nodded.“Yes.”His eyes remained on mine.“Not because of anything else, but purely because…”He took a deep breath.“Because you want me.”“Yes. Just because I want you, Adrian. Nothing else.”That was all he needed.His mouth found mine.The kiss was slow at first, almost careful.But I didn’t want us to be careful tonight.I wanted him to forget everything else and just focus on me.My arms wrapped around his neck, pulling him

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   176. I Came to You

    Serena’s Point of ViewAdrian had to leave.I stood in front of the closed door for a few seconds, staring at it.Then I smiled.He almost said it.He had spent so long trying to explain how his feelings had changed day by day.His jealousy.His need to protect me.I couldn't really understand what you had become to me.Well, I had understood what he had become to me a little earlier.And now he understood it too.I knew it wasn’t just protectiveness. It wasn’t just concern or caring. I knew it wasn’t anything like I had ever felt before.He loved me.I didn't need to hear those three words to know that.But God, I would love to hear them.From him.As he looked into my eyes.However, the situation at the company was serious. He needed to take care of it.And the two of us had all the time in the world to say those words to each other.I walked back to the bedroom to get some clothes to change into.And my eyes fell on the bed.Heat immediately crept up my cheeks.Last night.For a mo

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   175. Tomorrow

    Adrian's Point Of viewI stared at her face for a moment and then continued to talk.“And slowly, I began to understand that I was still capable of having emotions.”A faint smile touched my lips.“Unfortunately, I had been an emotionless man for so long that I couldn’t even understand half of the feelings I began to have.”Right then, my phone rang.I glanced at the phone lying on the coffee table.Watson.There was no way Watson was calling me for nothing.Still, I didn’t want to stop our conversation now.Serena looked at the phone.“Shouldn’t you answer?”“No.”I turned back to her.“I have to tell you everything first…”She nodded lightly.“Sometimes you asked me if I was jealous. I didn’t admit it.”Her eyebrows rose.“I honestly didn’t think I was even capable of feeling something like jealousy. I thought I was just worried about you. That I simply didn’t trust the intentions of the men around you.”I paused.“I hated it when another man got close to you. When they flirted with

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   174. You Came Into My Life.

    Adrian’s Point of View“You bought a cake?”Serena looked at me, her eyes widening with surprise.“We need to celebrate your freedom.”She smiled.“When did you even order this? Isn’t this from that famous cake shop downtown? I heard you have to wait so long to order a customized cake from them.”She said it as her eyes lingered on the obviously customized chocolate chip cake, with Congratulations, Serena written beautifully across it.“Have you forgotten who I am, Ms. Gilbert? I’m Adrian Henrix. Do I even have to wait to get something done?”Serena laughed.“Since when did you learn to be so cocky?”“Maybe since I wanted to show you how important I am.”She chuckled, patting my shoulder.“No need to show me. I already know how important you are, Mr. Henrix.”She grabbed the knife and looked at me.“Come on. Let’s cut the cake together.”“Why?”“Because I said so.”I sighed and placed my hand over hers.Together, we cut the cake.Then we sat at her dining table and ate together.Halfw

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   173. Finally Free

    Serena’s Point of View“When you walk out of here today, you’ll be free.”I looked at Adrian.We were standing just in front of the courthouse. My lawyer, Marcus Whitfield, was a few steps ahead of us, talking to someone.I took a slow breath.“Yes, I’ll be free.”Until last night, I had been uncertain about the outcome of today’s hearing. I was afraid to have high hopes.But Adrian…He had somehow managed to make me feel certain.Made me hope again.I smiled at him, and he smiled back.A rare, bright smile.Marcus opened the door and turned to us.“It’s time.”Adrian looked at me.“Ready?”I nodded.“Ready.”We walked inside together.I sat beside my lawyer while Adrian took the seat behind us.My hands felt colder despite the warmth in the room.I clasped them together on my lap.And suddenly, warmth wrapped around them.My gaze fell to Adrian’s hand covering mine.I raised my head and looked at him.He simply smiled.But that smile said everything that needed to be said.A moment l

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   172. Angel.

    Adrian’s Point of View“Serena, have you…”I pushed open her bedroom door and froze in my tracks.Yes, I completely froze.Serena stood beside the bed in nothing but her pajama pants, her top still in her hands.All the senses in my mind vanished making me forget that I was actually supposed to do something right now.Something other than fucking stare at her.Her eyes widened.“Adrian!”She quickly pressed the pajama top against her chest.I felt a little disappointed, honestly.But that finally brought some sense back into my head.“Turn around!” she yelled.I did.Immediately.I was glad she didn’t see how flustered and disappointed I looked at the same time.“I thought you were already dressed. I even took a shower, and you’re still changing?”“I was trying on a few dresses.”“For tomorrow?”Tomorrow.The early hearing we had finally managed to secure.“You can turn around now.”I turned carefully.She had put on her pajama top, her cheeks still flushed.There were several dresses

    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

    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

    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
