Semua Bab My Ex-Husband's Temptation : Bab 51 - Bab 60

WINTER: As much as I knew that Calcifer was single and that he had no girlfriend and it was not Carmela, the feeling as if you were caught sinning persisted.It seemed like a bucket of water was thrown into me. As if burned, I pushed Calcifer away from me. My eyes trained on the newcomer whose nostrils were steaming. Carmela. His other ex-wife.If looks could kill, I would be dead by now. She shrieked an ear-splitting one that nearly made my ears bleed. “How could you do this to me?” she exclaimed; her face burned with anger. Calcifer straightens himself while blocking my eyesight from the woman. He was trying to protect me.Don't you dare hide, Winter. You did nothing wrong. You did not seduce Calcifer of anything like that. Still, why did it feel like we were discovered for doing immoral acts even if there were none. Why am I hiding behind him? His broad back felt like strong walls that would protect me from any rabid animals. “Do what?” he calmly asked. “What am I doing?

CARMELA:It was the woman’s fault because Cali’s love for me had disappeared.I hated her for that. I want her to disappear from the picture forever. But how? Cali will kill me if I do something to that woman. But was killing her worth it just to attain Calcifer’s love and attention?His world no longer revolved around me. Back then, I could always wrap him around my fingers. Whatever I said, he would always listen. He was my puppet and I used his love for me to get whatever I want from him. Bags. Shoes. Money. Calcifer was the richest person I could ever had and I did not want him to lose like that. All because of Winter.I bit my fingernails.I wanted that woman gone. I need to plan this well. Something that would not leave any evidence at all. “Mommy? Why are you crying?” Jett-Jett asked.After Cali left and went to his room, I entered the child’s room. The child whom Cali had attached to. It was unfortunate that I had to use her so that Cali would not cut off his financial suppor

WINTER:Hawk loved me.It was surreal and I did not know what was happening. Or whether I would believe him.I pointed at myself. “You loved me?”“Is it unbelievable?”“It is. I’m sorry, but I am not taking your feelings for granted. But…I cannot give you a response right now.”“It’s fine, Miss Winter. You don’t have to give me your answer. Saying my feelings to you was already a great help since I was able to get rid of this heavy feeling.”“I’m sorry, Hawk.”“It’s fine, Miss Winter.”He turned his back. Just as he was about to step forward, I said, “Hawk…I haven’t given an answer yet.”“I will understand whatever your opinion, Miss Winter.”“Are you sure?”“I am fine.”He was not fine. His shoulders drooped and he was sad. I wished I could ease the pain he felt right now, but my heart was in chaos. I just could not lie to myself and tell him that everything was okay. That I would be choosing him, because right now, I cannot do anything.“You will still stay, right?”He laughed in a l

WINTER:I could see that Calcifer was interested in listening to me. Good because this was the only time I would be brave like this. Next time, I won't be able to tell him. Cali's expression softened in the camera and I had the urge to hug him right now. If only we were not separated by the virtual world…then…I would be able to do what I wanted with him like cuddling and kissing. “Why did you leave, pumpkin? I mean, why did you withdraw and imprisoned yourself in your room?”Here it goes. “There was some incurable sickness in our family which only spread among the women. Mom was one of the victims of that sickness so the rest of her family members. When I started to get some symptoms, I got scared that I would leave you. I eman…despite being in a loveless marriage, I also liked you as my husband since you’ve been good to me. I was scared that I would leave this world without getting the chance to know you, Cali.”He sucked in a breath.“W-What did you experience?”“Dizziness. Pain

WINTER: “I never said that!” I exclaimed.“I heard it, pumpkin. You're so cute when you're embarrassed.”My nose flared. “I'm not trying to be cute!” I whispered in a harsh voice. “I know. You're not acting to be one. It's effortless,” he retorted in a dreamy voice. “Can I keep you forever, pumpkin?”“You're getting drunk.”“Drunk of happiness because of you. I wish we were always like this. I don't know talking to you is fun. It seemed like we were on a courting stage where we got to know each other.” I fell silent. Well, it was true. Back then, we got married directly. Calcifer was so busy at that time, running their business while I was also helping Dad with our company. Except for our names and family background, we did not have any idea who my groom was. “You're being cheesy,” I muttered under my breath, but was silently smiling. I liked talking to him, too, and unfortunately, no matter how much I tried to keep the hatred in my heart, it was slowly disappearing. It will only
