All Chapters of Heart of a Betrayed Wife: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Adira's pov, We had arrived at the hospital and were inside the hospital. But we remained outside a particular ward where Aunt Becky was receiving treatment. Joseph and Kai were sitting in the same seat, while I was pacing back and forth in the corridor, as I couldn't relax. During the traffic, when I thought that all hope was lost, he showed up. Franklin. He was my senior when I was in college. Though we were from different departments. He studied medicine, while I studied jewelry design. I studied jewelry design, not because I was a novice, but because I wanted to gain a certificate and become a legit jeweler in the future. Back to where it started. Franklin. Earlier, when we were stuck with Aunt Becky in the traffic, Franklin came to our refuge and intervened. I was stunned when I saw him, but I didn't think about why he was there. All I said to him was to help my Aunt Becky, since I knew that he was a doctor. At that moment, I hurried to Kai's car and

The door to the private ward opened, and as I stared in the direction of the door, I saw that it was Kai who had entered the ward. Joseph didn't stop hugging me as I tried to make him stop hugging me. I wasn't trying to get him off me because I wanted to go and talk to Kai. But because I wanted him to eat something. At this rate, if I didn't do anything, he might really faint under my watch. And that was what I didn't want to happen. “Hey, Joseph, wait. Stop hugging me. You have to stop hugging me and eat something first”. I said to him as I gently continued to try to get him off my body. But he did not budge and continued to hug me. When I struggled a little bit and looked at his face, I discovered that he was asleep, with his chin resting on my shoulder, and his body completely pressed against mine. So, all this while I had been trying to make him stop hugging me, it turned out that he was asleep?I should have guessed that after he did not budge nor respond to me. “Sister”

Nathan and I arrived outside the building. I was glad that I didn't meet Cassandra on the way. I hated the thought of meeting her, especially at a moment like now when I was in a hurry. If I had met her, she would have delayed and wasted my precious time talking non stop, and nagging me to take care of her unborn grandson.What a headache she was. Between my mother and her, I don't think I can tell which one of them is worse. Nathan led me to one of the cars, where the driver was already standing by. He was the same driver who drove me to my apartment that day when I woke up next to my beloved. “Greetings, young master and young Miss”. He greeted us and I felt delighted and proud. If he could greet me with so much respect now, then what was going to happen after I got married to Nathan? I bet he was going to worship the ground I walked on. “Take my woman to her apartment and make sure that nothing wrong happens to her. If anything happens to her under your watch, you would wish

I had finished eating, and looking at Joseph's plate, I saw that he had not eaten half of his food, but continued to force himself to eat. I sighed in defeat because I didn't know what else to do to make him eat well and stop tormenting himself. In the end, I decided not to say anything to him again. I decided that it was best he let his pain all out, because bottling up his pain had its own separate consequences. But if his pain gets too much, and he continuously torments himself, I was going to interfere and bring him back to his senses. No matter how many times I have to repeat doing that, I will continue. I took out my cell phone from my trouser pocket. The same trousers from yesterday. Honestly, I felt too down to do anything yesterday. So after returning to the house with Joseph, I went to bed without changing clothes or refreshing myself. Even this morning, I wasn't in the mood to enter the kitchen, let alone be in the mood to prepare breakfast for myself or anyone. But I

“What?! You want us to kill someone for you?!”. Stefan exclaimed, and I slapped my forehead because of his stupidity. Luckily, I was smart enough to make them meet me under this road bridge, which people rarely pass through. If I had not done this, and we were in a public space, he would have put me in a lot of trouble. I can't even imagine the disaster. “Make it 200 thousand dollars, and I will help you”. Philip offered, making me frown. He didn't even ask me why I wanted to kill someone. All he cared about was the money that was going to enter his pocket. “I don't have enough money”. I said to him, and for the first time in my life, I almost retreated from my own brother, because of his scary gaze. His gaze wasn't fierce, but it was threatening. How was that possible? Stefan went ahead and placed his hands on my shoulders, gripping them tightly. “Are you really serious right now, Valentina? Why do you want us to kill someone for you? This is unlike you. No. This isn't you”. H
