Serena's Point of View

"Michela."

The smile on my lips disappeared instantly.

Michela was standing in front of me, wearing an elegant formal dress she must have worn to the office today.

But there was nothing elegant about her except the dress.

Her makeup was slightly smudged.

Her hair was messy.

And most of all...

Her eyes.

They were burning.

With something so intense that I instinctively took a step back.

For a moment, neither of us said anything.

We simply looked at each other.

Then she bega

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   70. Let's Go Somewhere Safe

    Serena's Point of View"Michela."The smile on my lips disappeared instantly.Michela was standing in front of me, wearing an elegant formal dress she must have worn to the office today.But there was nothing elegant about her except the dress.Her makeup was slightly smudged.Her hair was messy.And most of all...Her eyes.They were burning.With something so intense that I instinctively took a step back.For a moment, neither of us said anything.We simply looked at each other.Then she began to laugh.A laugh that sent chills through my entire body."So..."Her voice was strangely calm."We meet again."My fingers tightened around the strap of my handbag."Michela..."I looked around.Normally, there should have been people around at this hour.But today, the place was strangely quiet.Almost empty.Every part of me wanted to simply walk away.But she was between me and the door."I don't think we should talk here.""Oh?"She tilted her head."Then where should we talk?""The hote

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   69. My Child?

    Adrian's Point of ViewEven though I was with an important client...For the first time in my life...My mind was not fully focussed.Michela had already left headquarters.Watson had confirmed it.Still, for some reason, my mind wasn't at ease.This uneasiness had started the moment I heard Michela was coming here for the final inquiry.It was the kind of feeling you couldn't explain, but deep in your heart, you knew something wasn't right.I had almost the same feeling many years ago.And that time, what I felt became true, and the day ended in the worst possible way.That's why I wanted to be extra careful.I did everything I could to make sure nothing happened.My phone suddenly vibrated.Normally, I would never check my phone during an important meeting.But today, I couldn't help it.The moment I saw who the message was from, my fingers moved on their own.Sir, my landlord just called. There is a leak in my bathroom that has to be repaired urgently, so I had to leave. I'm alread

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   68. I Thought It Was Over

    Michela's Point of ViewI had already checked my phone God knows how many times.Still...Nothing from him.No new messages.No missed calls.I laughed bitterly.The one time I truly needed his support...He wasn't there.Even from a text...Yesterday, I had practically begged Rowen to come with me."It's not like they'll allow me to bring you inside," he had said indifferently."So what's the point of me coming?"Just like that, he had shut me down.So simply.I had traveled here alone last night with a heart that felt unbearably heavy.I had stayed in a cheap hotel room with no one beside me.No one to tell me everything would be alright.I let out a slow sigh and looked at the still-closed door.The inquiry would begin soon.After so many interviews...So many investigations...So many interrogations...I had no idea what would happen today.But I knew there was very little chance the outcome would be in my favor.If...If I lost this job...Everything would be over.My reputation.

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   67. Under My Protection

    Serena's Point of ViewI had just finished buttoning my blouse when the doorbell rang.I frowned at my reflection in the mirror.It was too early.Who would come at this time?Becky?But she usually called before coming over, and deliveries never arrived this early.Curious, I walked to the door.Before opening it, I looked through the peephole.The moment I saw who was standing outside, I froze.Then, the next second, I quickly unlocked the door."...Sir?"

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   66. You still love her, don't you?

    Serena's Point of View"They saw everything from the CCTV?"I repeated what I had just heard.For a moment, it was so hard to process it.Did HR really see how Karen and the other girls harassed me?Did Adrian see it too?No...Please don't let him see it.I truly didn't want him to.I didn't want him to worry about me even more than he already did."And Serena, you know what?"Becky leaned even closer, pulling me out of my thoughts."Huh?""They discovered this wasn't the first time.""What?""There was another employee from Karen's team a few months before you joined.""She resigned.""My friend in HR said they suspect Karen had been harassing her too."I slowly lowered my smoothie."Really?"I couldn't even believe it.Karen had actually made someone even leave the company?And no one did anything about that...Until now?"Anyway...""Isn't the investigation moving really fast?" I asked."Big Boss said he wanted everything concluded within a week, didn't he?""So obviously the HR d

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   65. I owe every one of you an apology.

    Adrian's Point of View"As the Human Resources Department..."The entire meeting room fell into pin-drop silence.Every member of the HR leadership team looked at me."You all should be ashamed that this many employees have suffered inside this company while you all did nothingThe HR Director lowered her eyes first."We sincerely apologize, sir.""It was our failure."Her voice was filled with obvious guilt."All the complaints we received were isolated incidents.""Some employees even withdrew their complaints before we could proceed.""And why do you think they did so?"The HR Director seemed startled by my question."Sir..." she hesitated."It was because we failed as a company to make them feel safe enough to approach us."No one said anything."At least now we should take action."The HR Director quickly nodded."Yes, sir."I looked at Greyson."How long do you think a full investigation would take?""Based on all the complaints, if we investigate everything thoroughly, it would

    Serena's Point of View"I'll drive you home."As we walked toward the elevator, Adrian said it as if it were the most normal thing in the world."Sir... you're heading back to the office, right?"I really didn't want him to waste any more of his time."Let's go. My car is in the underground parking

    Serena's Point of View"Serena, what do you think?"I lifted my head from my laptop screen and looked up.Adrian was looking at me, his green eyes fully focused, waiting to hear what I had to say.We were in a meeting on Monday morning, discussing the best approach for a problem we had encountered.

  • When My Husband Lost Me, His CEO Found Me   20. For a Reason I Couldn't Even Understand

    Serena’s Point of ViewI took a deep breath.No one else was moving to answer.The silence was getting heavy.So I spoke.I didn’t feel nervous that I was going to speak in front of the mighty CEO, Adrian Henrix. Somehow… I felt a little more confident with his presence.“I was going through the mo
