Serena’s Point of View

Should I go and talk to him?

Before I could even find an answer to my question, my feet had already moved towards the tall figure flipping through the pages of a children's book as if the whole world didn't exist for him.

Even though he wore casual clothes today, looking a little less intimidating, he still looked so out of place, surrounded by cute colorful books and soft fairy-tale characters pasted on the walls.

Still...

Somehow...

Looking at him, I was smiling without

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   89. He wouldn't let me see you

    Serena's Point of ViewMy whole body froze.I forgot to even release the breath I had taken.I had heard that voice for seven years of my life.That voice had once been enough to make me feel so happy.But now...It only made me want to run to a place where I would never have to hear it again.I was about to run to Adrian.To my safe place.But I could only take one step before the man called my name again."Serena..."The next moment, a hand wrapped around my wrist, stopping me from moving forward.My whole body stiffened.I turned my head slightly to look at him.He removed his mask with his free hand.Rowen looked messier than I had ever remembered.His eyes were bloodshot.His usually neatly trimmed beard had grown out.There was also a long scar near his eye."Please..."His voice cracked."Just listen to me."I tried to pull my hand free."Let me go."But he didn't.Instead...His grip tightened."I know you hate me.""I know you don't even want to see me anymore.""I deserve th

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   88. He Found Me Again

    Adrian's Point of ViewI had no idea how long it had been.I walked out of her apartment, got into my car parked in front of the apartment complex, and placed my small suitcase and laptop on the back seat.Then I sat in the driver's seat.But I couldn't start the car and drive away.My eyes remained fixed on the apartment building in front of me.Third floor.Second window from the left.The curtain was still slightly open.A faint yellow light glowed from inside.And looking at that light, I was still waiting...For something I didn't even understand.Twice I reached for the ignition.Twice I stopped.I had agreed to leave her.Not because I wanted to.If I could...I was willing...More than willing...To spend every second with her.Protecting her.Taking care of her.But I truly didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable because of my constant presence.And just like she said...She needed to grow strong on her own.She needed to become the kind of woman who didn't need someone's

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   87. Don't Go Yet

    Serena's Point of View"I'm not going."I felt helpless."You can't keep living like this.""I can."He didn't sound even the slightest bit hesitant."No."I gently shook my head as I stared into those green eyes."You can't."He didn't say anything.He just kept looking into my eyes.I don't know why...But at that moment, his eyes looked more beautiful than ever.They almost made me reach out and touch them.I took a deep breath."Do you remember what you kept telling me after..."My voice caught for a moment."...after Theo..."His expression changed immediately."I remember everything I told you.""Every single word."I let out a quiet sigh."You told me...""...that I had to become strong.""So that one day...""When Theo comes back...""I'll be able to protect him."His gaze remained fixed on me."So tell me...""How am I supposed to become strong if you keep protecting me like this every second?"Adrian didn't answer.But I clearly saw his fingers tighten around his coffee mug.

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   86.You've Done Enough

    Serena's Point of ViewIt had been several weeks since Theo.Still, the pain hadn't become any smaller.Every morning, I still woke up with my hand reaching for my stomach before remembering there was no one breathing there anymore.Every night before I fell asleep, I hugged the little bear book I used to read to him every day and whispered good night to my beautiful baby.As if he could still hear me.I missed him with every heartbeat.With every breath I took.No amount of time...No amount of tears...Would ever change that.But...There was one thing that kept me waking up every morning and moving forward...Even when it was unbearably hard.Hope.The hope Adrian had carefully placed inside my broken heart over all these weeks."One day... our little boy will come back."He had said those words the very day we lost our baby boy.Then he kept saying them ever since.And somehow...I had slowly begun to believe those words too.Because believing that one day I would hold Theo in my

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   85.Who am I...

    Serena's Point of ViewIt wasn't even lunchtime yet...But this was the third time Adrian had come to our workspace.The first time, he had asked Jack and Ben for an update on the project.The second time...He said he was just passing by.And now...He didn't even mention a specific reason.He simply stopped beside Jack's desk once again.His calm green eyes swept across the room before finally settling on me.Those eyes were silently asking me the same question they had been asking since this morning.Are you okay?I gave him a small nod.Almost impossible for anyone else to notice.But enough for him to understand.That I was okay...His shoulders visibly relaxed.Then he looked toward Jack.And asked him something about the project.Jack immediately began explaining.It took only two or three minutes."Good."Then Adrian simply turned around and walked away.Our room became strangely quiet.And then...Ben leaned closer to me."I think the big boss has checked on our project more

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   84. One Step at a Time

    Adrian's Point of ViewIt was Monday.The day Serena was going back to work.I woke up pretty early that morning.Honestly, I haven't been sleeping well these past few days.It seemed my insomnia had become even worse.Last night was the worst of all.Maybe because I was anxious.Far more anxious about today than I wanted to admit.After getting ready for work, I began preparing breakfast.The same omelet.The same toast.The same

    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

  • 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

  • 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
