All Chapters of Heart of a Betrayed Wife: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

It had been an hour, but no sign of Adira coming out of the hospital, making me wonder what she and Joseph were doing there for so long. Or perhaps, has Aunty Becky woken up? That would be great news, but I was hesitant to enter the hospital because I was scared of Adira getting mad at me. This was unlike me. Why was I scared of Adira getting mad at me? No matter how much she had changed, she was still the little and timid Adira I once knew. “I am going in”. I said to myself and stopped pacing back and forth. My gaze was fixed on the tall hospital building as I made my way towards the hospital with no intention of stopping. What made me halt on my track was because of my cell phone which was in my hand. It began to ring. I checked the screen of my cell phone, already expecting the caller to be either my father or my mother. My guess was right. It was my dad. I knew that he was eventually going to call me back. I answered the call. “Kai, we are in Delfinda city. Tell me the

“Sweetie”. My mother called me. A drop of tear escaped from her eye, and as I saw her trying to give me a hug, I did not think and dodged, before she could touch me. My body seemed to react on its own. But if my body was able to react like that without my actual control, it was evident that I had not let bygones be bygones, no matter how much I had convinced myself that I had moved on with my life. “Adira honey?”. My mother called out and looked surprised. As if she couldn't believe what had happened between me and her. 'I can't. I am not in the mood for this. Since both of them are here, Kai must have told them about Aunt Becky. I can't stop them from seeing her, but they should not disturb or approach me'. I said to myself in my mind before I made Joseph leave with me. “Cousin Adira?”. Joseph called my name, but with my mind stuck on that day, I got reminded of my pain. “Ouch”. My eyes widened, and I looked at Joseph the instant I heard him exclaim in pain. I halted, the same

Remembering the ice cream I had forgotten in my car, I went to retrieve it, before I went and entered the house and locked the door behind me. But I did not fail to hear the hurried footsteps of someone leaving the door side when I initially approached the entrance door of the house. There was only me and Joseph, so I knew that the culprit was him. He must have been spying on me and Michael, and only hurried away after he saw me coming into the house. When I arrived in the living room, I saw Joseph sitting innocently on the sofa, with his fingers hugging each other, and his hands resting properly on his laps. He looked up at me with a smile on his face. “No need to pretend, Joseph. I am not blind, nor am I deaf. I know what you did. And, of course, I am not going to get mad at you”. I told him, but after he sighed in relief, I went and stood in front of him and held his shoulder using my right hand, while holding the plastic bag of ice cream in my left hand. “But it was rude an

4pm, The sky had become less blue, with the sun not as harsh as it was during the early afternoon. Rather, the wind was the one ruling over nature and the atmosphere. Such perfect weather. Sadly, such perfect weather meant for resting, was going to be wasted on taking Felix's life. My back was resting against a wall, with my right leg positioned in front of my left leg.“It's 4pm at the dot”. I muttered, as I stared at the screen of my cell phone. Stefan and Philip were already in place at the hill, while I was out of the town. I had spent quite some time with Felix and had an idea about the kind of person he was. Like I have said before, he is not to be underestimated. If he eventually arrives in the town and finds me there already waiting for him, he was going to suspect that something fishy was going on. That was why I left the town, in order to return only after he called me that he had arrived. I adjusted the pink face cap that I was wearing by making it cover my face a

Valentina's pov, I sighed in relief as I stared at my reflection in the bathroom's wall mirror. After taking my bath, my body felt refreshed, and my mood became much better than before. Earlier, after Felix's body was reduced to ashes, Philip left the remaining job for Stefan to do. So, Stefan packed the ashes inside a black plastic bag that he happened to find lying on the ground. In the process of finding a more suitable place to dispose of the ashes, Stefan discovered that there was a cliff nearby, so he went ahead and scattered the ashes down the cliff. I was there, and I saw how the ashes fell from the high cliff, down to the ground, like snow. 'You deserve death, Felix. That's why I don't feel sorry for you. My only regret is that you made me become a murderer'. I thought to myself as I glared at his ashes as they rained to the ground. With Felix's remains properly disposed of, I asked help from Stefan and Philip. I told them to help get water and new clot
