LOGINSerena’s Point of ViewAdrian and I both turned our heads toward the door at the sound of knocking.“Come in,” I said.The door opened, and Watson stepped inside.“They'll be here soon.”I looked at the time.Half an hour had already passed?It felt like five minutes.I slowly stood from the chair.“I should go.”Adrian was still holding onto my hand.“Once they're gone, you'll come back, right?”I smiled.“I'll come back.”“As soon as they're gone?”“Okay, baby.”His eyes narrowed slightly.“Promise?”I laughed.“Why do you keep making me promise you every time?”“Because with everything that's happening right now, I'm really afraid.”He let out a sigh.“Don't worry. I promise.”I leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on his cheek.Watson was standing right behind us. He could see everything.Still, I didn't care.At least I could act like he belonged to me in front of the people we trusted.As I promised, I went back to him after his family and Sofia's family left.But I had to wait
Serena’s Point of View“Serena, please don't go.”Adrian's fingers tightened around mine as I tried to stand.I smiled at him.“I'm not going anywhere, baby. I'm just going to wait outside until the doctors finish examining you.”His eyes studied my face for a second.“You'll come back?”“Of course I will.”“Promise?”I leaned closer and gently kissed his cheek.“I promise.”Only then did he reluctantly release my hand.Three doctors were inside examining Adrian.I was waiting with Becky, Noah, and Watson, watching the door, wondering when it would open again.I knew they had to examine him properly. It was important. But when they took this much time, I couldn't help getting worried again.“Why is it taking so long?”I asked the same question more than once, and Watson had to keep reassuring me.Finally, the doctors came out.“The good news is that we haven't found any signs of serious neurological damage,” the head doctor explained. “His responses are normal, and everything looks en
Serena’s Point of View“He wants Serena.”“He keeps asking where she is. He isn’t letting anyone do anything until he sees her.”For a moment, I could only stare at Noah.Adrian asked for me.The moment he opened his eyes, he asked for me.Something incredibly warm spread through my chest, making all the fear and confusion that had lived in my heart for the past few days slowly disappear.My Adrian remembered me.Of course he did.But beside me, Watson didn’t seem quite as happy about what had happened.“Wait. He asked for Serena in front of everyone?”Only then did I understand the seriousness of what Adrian had asked.In front of his family.And Sofia’s family.Noah immediately shook his head.“Not really. The doctor came out and explained the situation to Dad. I was the only one standing with him at the time.”“And everyone else?”“They didn’t hear.”Watson seemed relieved.“So what happened then?”Noah looked at me before answering.“Dad told Mom and the others that the doctors ne
Serena’s Point of View“You can’t keep going like this, Serena.”I looked down at the cup of coffee Becky had pushed into my hands.“You need something other than coffee in your body.”I let out a sigh.“I’m not hungry.”I didn’t lie. I wasn’t hungry, nor was I thirsty. If it wasn’t for Becky forcing me, I wouldn’t even have this coffee.“You haven’t been hungry for almost a day. How is that even possible?”Almost a day.My fingers tightened around the warm cup.It had indeed been almost a day.And Adrian was still yet to regain consciousness.Watson had asked me to go home and rest, saying he would inform me as soon as Adrian woke up.But how could I go home?Leaving my Adrian here even before he opened his eyes?Becky had insisted on staying with me too, even when I told her a hundred times that I would be fine alone.But I hadn’t eaten.I hadn’t slept.Other than waiting in this room for news from Watson, I had done literally nothing.So Becky refused to leave me like this.“It has
Adrian’s Point of View“Sofia, if you came here to convince me to marry you, you’re wasting your time.”I said it as soon as she entered my office.When Watson told me Sofia was there to see me, I refused at first. I had no time to waste talking to her.But Watson said she insisted she needed to talk to me about something important, and that I should at least listen to her.Sofia was someone I had known for a long time, and she had a bearable personality compared to most of the other rich kids I knew from our family circle. She hardly ever involved herself in unnecessary drama.So I finally let her in.But I wanted to make myself clear from the very beginning.No matter who it was, I wasn’t going to marry anyone except the woman I loved.Sofia stared at me before letting out a small laugh.“Do you seriously think I want to get married right now, Adrian?”I frowned.“I just finished my PhD. I have so much I want to achieve before I even think about settling down. But my parents don’t u
Serena’s Point of ViewThe moment the door finally opened, I jumped to my feet.Watson walked in.I searched his face desperately, trying to find the answer even before he spoke.“The surgery is over.”I held my breath.“And?”“It was successful.”My knees gave way.I dropped back into the chair as a sob escaped me.“Thank God…”I covered my face with both hands as my whole body began to shake with sobs.He was safe.Becky immediately wrapped her arms around me, and I buried my face against her shoulder.For the first time since Watson called Becky, I could finally breathe properly.“He’s okay.”I kept repeating it like I needed to hear the words again and again to believe them.“He’s okay.”“It’ll take some time for him to regain consciousness,” Watson said gently. “But the surgery went well.”“So he’s completely out of danger, right?” Becky asked.Watson hesitated.“Mostly.”My head snapped up.“What do you mean, mostly?”“He hit his head pretty hard. The doctors want to monitor him
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“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
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
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
