Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Wife He Never Wanted: Kabanata 381 - Kabanata 390

CassandraI had just taken a sip of the coffee Liza made for me. The calming aroma of it made me let out a long breath.“Miss, why is your hand swollen?” Liza asked as she looked at my hand.My hand had to be wrapped with an elastic bandage to keep it from getting worse and to help me move it a little. I hadn’t expected that punching that woman would leave this kind of impact on my hand.I thought maybe I should take a self-defense class to make myself stronger. I hadn’t talked about this with Sebastian yet, but he would probably agree with the idea.I gave her a small smile as the chair shifted slightly. “Something happened. I couldn’t just stay silent.”“You punched a wall?” Liza shrugged.I knew she was teasing me a little, but she also showed her concern by quickly gathering the documents on my desk.“I don’t know exactly what happened,” she said as she sat in her chair and raised her hand with a thumbs-up. “But you can rely on me here.”I laughed silently at her response.Our rel

SebastianWhen I saw that man touching Cassandra while holding her hand tightly, I truly couldn’t hold myself back anymore.My anger made me start a fight with him. From the beginning, I already disliked him because he always tried to get Cassandra’s attention.That day, a woman slapped Cassandra. That damn woman actually dared to do that to Cassandra.I wanted to break her hand and make her feel pain many times worse than what Cassandra had suffered.Cassandra stopped me. She slapped the woman back. Even so, I still couldn’t accept what she had done to Cassandra.I knew she was Cillian’s cousin. Damn it—anything related to that man truly brings bad luck and negative influence.That woman was the perfect example. She tried to get rid of Cassandra. When I wanted to drag her away to punish her, Cillian had already thrown her back to the place she came from.I didn’t get my chance, but I destroyed her family there, making that woman cry and beg for mercy—though she would never receive an

CassandraToday, we had a guest at the house. In the past, whenever she came, her eyes would immediately scan every corner of the place, which made me feel tense.After that, she would speak in an unpleasant tone. Every time she did that, I felt an overwhelming fear that triggered my anxiety, making me question whether I had failed in my role as a wife.This time was different. When she entered the house, her gentle gaze fell on me, and then she hugged me.“Sandra, I’m so happy to see you.”It felt strange. I wasn’t used to Julie showing kindness toward me.“Thank you for accepting Sebastian again.”I looked at her, and she truly seemed relieved about it. Even when we were sitting together, she didn’t want to be far from me. She stayed beside me, holding my hand.“I won’t make the same mistake as before. You’re the one who truly deserves to be with Sebastian—my best daughter-in-law.”Perhaps some of the trauma from the past was still there. Even though she said it politely, I was quit

CassandraIt was quite surprising to see them here. Hearing what Erica said made me worry about her.After saying that, she immediately approached me and spoke in a whisper.“Sandra, I came here after asking around for your address without telling you first.”Her eyes shifted to the side. I realized she was looking at Miles. I could also see that she looked a little uneasy.“I’m sorry for coming here. But Tucker asked me to. He’s really sad because Miles never answers his calls.”Now I understood why she was acting like that. And when I looked at Tucker, he immediately walked over to Miles.Miles seemed to ignore him.Usually, they had a very close relationship. They often talked together and shared many things.This situation also made me uneasy. As I looked back at Erica, she added,“Tucker overheard my argument with Cillian. He became hysterical and immediately insisted on meeting Miles.”As a mother, I could understand what he was feeling right now. Seeing him like this, I held hi

CassandraI woke up feeling heavy because Sebastian was holding me. His large arm rested over my shoulder, so I carefully moved it away.I didn’t want to wake him, and I also enjoyed watching him while he slept. Seeing the details of his handsome face made me smile.After accepting my relationship with Sebastian, the way I looked at him had changed. I paid attention to the details of his body, the lines, his muscles.I no longer looked at him in a hurry, and I liked that he was mine.“Is what you want to do just keep looking at me?” he said, catching my hand. Then he placed it on his cheek. “Don’t you want to touch me?”I caught my breath when I heard that. It was clearly a tease. At first, it surprised me, but I was able to respond.With my hand on his cheek, I gently stroked it several times, while my other hand slipped under the blanket, softly touching his chest.“Uhm… Sandra, you’re waking me up this early…” he bit his lower lip.Seeing him like this was truly tempting, so I cont
