All Chapters of Another Chance At Love: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

She looked at him in surprise, not sure she had heard him well. “What did you say?” She asked. This was the first time he had said those words while sober, so she knew he meant them. “I love you.” He whispered softly into her ear. “I have loved you right from the first time I set eye on you in the mall.” “You didn’t show it then.” She teased, then gasped as he nibbled her ear. “I was fighting the feeling but I don’t want to fight anymore. I love you and I don’t want to hide it.” “I love you too.” She smiled. “And I will make sure nothing comes between us.” She kissed him and they fell onto the bed and continued making love. She woke up in his arms again and it felt like heaven. Things were finally going the way she had always dreamt of. She had a great job and family, except for her family who hated her. And she confirmed it that morning when she tried calling her dad to tell him of Jay’s birthday party, hoping he would attend. It was a waste of time. As soon as she be

Even though Jack had told Adele not to tell Chris about seeing her dad and Vera together, she felt he had the right to know. So that afternoon while she waited for Dan so they could go to lunch, she went to Chris ‘office. To her surprise Vera was there. “Vera, meet Adele my daughter in law. Adele meet Vera a friend of mine. I think you saw her at the gala?” Chris introduced them. “Yes nice to meet you.” Adele said uncomfortably. “Me too and remember you at the gala. You looked really beautiful.” Vera smiled. “Okay I have work to do, I will see you later.” Chris told her. “Sure.” She said and walked out. “Adele, is everything okay?” Chris asked noticing her discomfort. “Yeah everything is fine. I just wanted to take to you about something.” “Go ahead.” “I know it is none of my business, but how well do you know Vera?” She asked. “Not so well. We have been seeing each other for about three months. Why do you ask?” She hesitated, wondering how to tell him without ex

“Stop being crazy Zoey!” Dan snapped. “How can you think such a thing?” “What else do you want me to think? She is with him all the time. She was deliberately working late beside him, and how do you explain what happened at the birthday party?” “She went to get balloons.” Dan said weakly. “In Dad’s bedroom? Earlier when she asked me where he was I told her he was in his room dressing for the party. And we didn’t need balloons, we had enough downstairs, if she really wanted more why not ask me or you to get them? And I saw her when she went upstairs, she was acting like she was afraid of being caught. Besides, when you met her was she holding balloons?” Dan had thought all this too and had been frightened by the obvious answer. Something was going on between his wife and his dad. No! He was being crazy and so was Zoey. Nothing was happening. His dad won’t do that neither would Adele. “You are wrong. Adele can’t be interested in him, he is way older than her.” “So? She was

Dan saw his wife in his Dad’s arm and went crazy with anger. He fell like grabbing a chair and hitting his Dad over the head with it. But he controlled his anger and left. No need to make a scene inside here, he thought, he had seen all he needed to see to confirm that Zoey had been right, these two were sleeping together. They would go into one of the rooms for a quickie then come back acting like nothing happened. How long had it been going on? He thought furiously, how long had they been making a fool of him? If Zoey hadn’t tipped him off he would still be in the dark. He sat in his car, burning with anger. He would wait until he saw one of them come out then confront them in the street. He prayed it would be his dad so he could punch the bastard in his jaw. As for Adele, he was through with the whore. She was just like Candice, they were all the same, he thought bitterly. Zoey called him. “Zoey, you were right. The bastard is sleeping with Adele. How could he do that to me?”

Present day. Adele’s Pov I listened to his story in shock. I was still too shocked to say anything when he had finished. “That was so awful. I am really sorry all that happened to you. What about your dad? What happened to him?” I asked finally. “He was arrested. He died in prison a couple of years ago from a heart attack.” “And where did you go?” I lived with Freda, my mom’s sister, for a couple of months. It was hell on earth because she didn’t like kids. Just before she could put me in an orphanage she got married to Chris and he adopted me. After the divorce she was happy to give him full custody. At first I was bitter and angry over my mom’s death and the fact that Craig and Zoey didn’t like me, but Chris did everything to make me feel welcome.” He sighed. “But deep down I feel I will one day be like my real dad. That’s why I have been scared of getting married and raising a family. Candice made me think I could do it, then she hurt me by sleeping with Craig. The I me
