All Chapters of THE REJECTION: Chapter 131 - Chapter 137

Ella’s POV. When I finally get home, I find my family fast asleep in the living room. The sight warms my heart instantly. They look so peaceful together, curled up like they used to years ago. It has been so long since we spent a night like this, as a family, under one roof, without tension or sadness hanging in the air. Ever since Mom and Dad separated, Mom has carried a dullness in her eyes that never seemed to fade. But tonight, she looks different. There is a glow on her face, a softness I haven’t seen in years. She looks beautiful, and just looking at her makes me smile. She truly deserves happiness, more than anyone I know. If I could choose one thing in this life, it would be for her to stay this happy forever. I notice the television is still on, its bright light flickering silently. Clearly, they must have dozed off while watching a movie. I reach for the remote to switch it off, but before I do, a sudden news break flashes on the screen. At first, I don’t pay it much atte

Sarah’s POV “Where do you want me to drop you?” the man asked. His voice sounded distant. I had already started dozing off in his beautiful car. My body was exhausted from walking for so long, and hunger clawed painfully at my stomach. I didn’t even have a single coin on me, no hotel would accept me like this. I had nowhere to go. “Just drop me here, please,” I said softly. He stopped the car immediately. “Are you sure you can continue from here? You look weak and tired,” he said, concern in his voice. “Yes, I can continue. Thank you so much. I appreciate your generosity,” I told him as I pushed the door open and stepped out. A moment later, he drove away, leaving me standing alone on the roadside. I looked around, lost and unsure. My legs felt like they would give up on me any second. I needed somewhere, anywhere, to rest before I collapsed. “Clara,” I murmured to myself. “She won’t refuse me, I will go to her house and beg her to let me stay for just a few days.” Clara was th

Sarah’s POV After leaving Clara’s home, I decided to stay on the streets. I looked miserable, by the way. If I went to the club, no man would even look at me. I didn’t look attractive at all. My body curves were gone, all because of prison food. Since I hated eating in prison, my beautiful body disappeared, and now I looked completely emaciated. The streets were so cold, especially at night. In the two days I had slept here, I slept hungry. There was no food, and people refused to give me any money. I hated my life so much. I wished I had never escaped prison. I thought life would be easy after escaping, but it was even tougher than being inside. Today, when I woke up, I saw a commotion among the people on the streets. It seemed like they were going somewhere important. Curious, I decided to ask them. “There is a party today at some rich family’s house. They will cook a lot of food, and we will get some leftovers after the party,” one of them answered. “Can you take me with you, p

Ella’s POV After one year. One year had passed since that bad day in our lives. We were happy again. The incident had already faded from our minds. It was time to move on from the past, we had so much to focus on for the future. My mother had completely recovered. She was now able to use both her legs without any problem. She was so happy with her current condition. Things between her and Dad were fine now. They had gone back to being the loving couple they once were, and I was so proud of them. At last, my mom was happy with Dad. They were even planning to renew their vows. “I just want a small wedding,” Mom said once, and Dad was planning to go with her wish. My daughter, Laura, had completely recovered from the shock of that day. She had resumed school, and she was doing so well in her studies. I was so proud of her. She was a strong girl, and I felt blessed to have her as my daughter. Luca and I were also still together. Now we saw each other all the time. I was so happy with
