Adrian POV“She's still my wife and not his so I have a right to her.”Persistent and fierce, the thought plagued me. That closed door may hide anything at all. My blood boiled at the image of Sarah willingly choosing him and letting him into my former spaces. My fists clenched hard at my sides since jealousy twisted itself into a dark bitter knot within my chest.She wasn't my concern anymore, but I reminded myself about the cold, inescapable truth. The divorce papers did have my signature on them. I would very soon be free, in just a matter of months, to build up a life with Jessica and also our child.I repeated this fact in my head as a desperate mantra. I tried to dull the ache at which my pride gnawed. I ought not to care about all of Sarah's choices. It is just not my own concern what she does now anymore. They wouldn't.I straightened all of my clothes then forced my emotions back into their cage and took a steadying breath. I turned back on my heel, walked out of her house wit

Adrian POV“Stop lying, Jessica. I heard everything. Tell to me the truth of why it was that you faked your pregnancy?” I demanded, because my voice was there trembling with fury.Jessica's face turned pale so she tried to regain composure quickly. “I... I only faked it just so you would come back to me as well as divorce Sarah,” she stammered in a tense way, plus her voice faltered.That admission affected me like gut punch. I struggled to keep my composure, along with my fists clenched up. Though what about the Sarah affair lies actually? Were all of the stories that you fed to me real? Jessica, now at this point I know of the truth. ”I know that you have been lying now for years. “Cut the crap with me now.”Her eyes darted nervously all around because she searched for an escape, but there was truly none. “Adrian, I did it for us,” she insisted, her voice grew desperate as desperation crept inside. “Sarah is so cunning she always tries to take what's mine, you know.”I did stop her a

Sarah P.O.VSarah P.O.VAfter the chaotic morning with Adrian and Alessandro, I decided I wanted to collect my thoughts then I needed a day away from the office for a break. As I paced in my apartment, the weight of work unfinished loomed. I reluctantly made an alteration to my decision and went to the office.I arrived around when it was nearly 11 a.m., the morning sun high already within the sky, sharp shadows cast across the building's glass façade. As I did walk toward my cabin then, the hum of that office life greeted me. The employees tapped away at some keyboards. They also buzzed all around while exchanging hushed conversations. I noticed Ester at her desk; her brow was furrowed as she stared intently at her laptop screen.I crossed my arms about my chest as I approached her. “Where were you at last night? I was worried for you, Ester.” I felt some concern and a bit of exasperation. My tone did reflect all of these feelings.Ester glanced up, changing her expression to mirth. “

Sarah POVSarah POVThe familiar deep, velvety voice filled the silence of my office, and my spine experienced an unforeseen shiver.“Hello, Sarah.”I clenched the phone much tighter in my hand for the reason that my heart skipped because of reasons I was not yet ready for acknowledging. Warmth with a hint of mischief tinged his confident tone. Alessandro Dante projected confidence. He never sounded unsure.“I assume you received it?” The bouquet was sent by you.I concealed that lingering confusion while I kept my voice steady: “Yes. It was… unexpected.”A weighty silence followed unvoiced thoughts. I could picture almost the faint smile then. His lips tugged faintly.He did say smoothly, “Sometimes the best things are.”I leaned back in the chair as fingers of mine curled around the cord for the phone. “Is this actually how you are trying hard to convince me to dine with you now?”“Is it convincing you?” His voice became playful. He felt that I had by then already decided.A small la

Sarah POVAdrian’s presence loomed in the room his broad frame was tense yet his eyes brimmed with a desperate softness that belied his usual arrogance. He took one step more near, and also his voice was then low in tone and it was pleading.His fingers curled around my hand in a way that was firm yet trembling, “Sarah, you said you forgave me, right?” “Baby, then why can’t you be with me back at the mansion right now?”I stood rooted at that place. My throat caught at my breath. His words that were of familiar endearment I once had longed to hear now were hollow.Looking head-on into his gaze, I said, “I said I forgive you, Adrian, but I can’t forget what you did.” I can’t forget the way that you treated me. “I cannot act like nothing occurred and return to living with you.”Sorrow etched lines right across his perfect features because then his face contorted.“Sarah, I know that I hurt you quite badly. You have every right to be mad at me,” he admitted then, because his voice was thi
