Matthew cupped her face, brushing his thumbs to dry her face.“Now, now, don’t be sad. I will do my best to be a good husband, okay?”  Kirsten nodded.  “Where will I drop you?” Kirsten asked Matthew when they were in the car.  “I’m going back to my office, there are a few things that I have to finish.” Matthew replied and unconsciously held Kirsten's hand.  Kirsten looking down at their interlocked fingers, Matthew realized he held her hand without thinking. “Is this how I am to you?”  “Mm,” Kirsten replied. Matthew looked intently at her, Kirsten looked away as

Amused, Kirsten asked with a grin, “Do you really want to know?” She got curious on how he would react upon hearing the things he had done.  “I don’t want to repeat my mistake,” Matthew replied seriously.  “Because you were so good to me, I fell in love with you despite knowing that we would get divorce after a year. After you came back from Hawaii for a two week business trip, you confessed your love for me. And the divorce didn’t happen even after our contract was over.” Kirste paused for a while before resuming.   “However, my mom who had no idea that I was her daughter told me that you didn’t love me because I was just a pawn to prot

Despite Kirsten’s words of assurance, Sherry still felt heavy. Their food had been served and for the first time in their entire friendship, the two ate without exchanging words as both were absorbed in their own thoughts. After giving much thought about it, Sherry opened her mouth right away when she was done with her meal. “Last month, dad’s sister came to see me. She told me that I was just an adopted child.” The photo of Anya holding a baby girl which they made her believe to be her photo when she was a day old was actually Anya and Morgan's true daughter. The child was not in a good condition so she stayed in the hospital but the child died after a week. After the news of the child’s death, Morgan didn’t know what to do because he couldn’t tell his wife. Anya had a weak constitution and he couldn’t risk her health. He hid the child’s death for a week but soon Anya began to ask why the child wasn't discharged yet. One night, going home after work, he saw a small box under the l

“My love, I am going to meet a client tonight at Duke’s Table in the Westin Hotel.” Kirsten said to Matthew over the phone. “Alright, I’ll call mom to let Mark stay with her. I also have a meeting tonight.” Matthew answered. They exchanged sweet nothings over the phone before they finally terminated the call. Getting ready, Kirsten picked up her handbag. Kirsten arrived at the restaurant but her client was not there yet. A waiter came near and asked, “Do you want to order now, madam?” “Give me an orange juice for now.” Kirsten said while she looked at her wristwatch. The waiter came back with an orange juice. “Thanks.” She took a sip on the orange juice. “If she doesn't show up after I drink this orange juice, I’ll leave.” Kirsten called the waiter and settled her bill. When her card was returned to her. Kirsten got up and left the restaurant. By the time she arrived in front of the elevator, she felt dizzy. She opened and closed her eyes in a rapid succession to ward off the d

It was a new thing for James to see a young lady who paid no attention to her appearance just to make a child stop crying. He was really impressed.  Out of many people in the airport, why did she run into James? Donna felt a piercing pain in her heart, seeing the little girl in James’s arms. This woke up Donna from her dream. She and James were impossible, he has his own family. She should forget him. A product of a broken family herself, she didn’t want to be a homewrecker.  To ward off the awkwardness, Donna said, “You have a cute daughter.”  “Thanks!” James replied with a smile. Should this smile had been given to her before, Donna would be very happy. The fact that he was already married, Donna felt like his smile was a
