บททั้งหมดของ Wanted By Josh Carter: His Father, My Lover : บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

Joshua’s POV I really didn’t understand anything that was happening. I couldn’t figure out why Cassie was so angry with me, to the point of asking me to leave the hospital in that manner. She said she wanted to be alone without me. All I had done was protect her, but she was angry with me, as if I had committed some grave offense. When I returned home that night after what had happened at the hospital, I kept thinking about it, feeling completely frustrated. What had I done so wrong that Cassandra was so upset with me? It was true that I had gone to Mexico without telling her or saying goodbye. But I was in a hurry to find Mallory. I hadn’t slept for days and was dirty and ragged. I just wanted a hug from her because I hadn’t seen her in days. Not only that, but I wanted to talk to her and find out about her recovery process. Physically, she seemed almost completely recovered, but there was something negative in her gaze when she looked at me. Her eyes were slightly widened, and sh

Joshua’s POVI was still too shocked for everything to sink in and for me to truly realize what had just happened. Cassandra had left me; she was no longer my girlfriend, no longer a part of my life.It was almost laughable, considering everything we had been through, to imagine that we would end up like this in such a pathetic manner. She said she couldn’t handle my issues with my son and ex-wife anymore. I couldn’t believe that this curse was following me even when I was with Cassie. After all the destruction I had caused in the past, that whole story was still tearing me apart to this day.It felt as if it had been destined for me to be a miserable piece of shit, as if I didn’t deserve true love like everyone else had the right to. It was as if I was being punished constantly. I sighed and lifted my head. I didn’t want these thoughts to haunt me, so I tried to keep the flow of my life going.Not only that, but I tossed the beautiful bouquet of flowers into the nearest trash bin be

Mark POVWhen Cassie agreed to be my girlfriend, it was the happiest day of my life. I really couldn't wait for that to happen. I was very frustrated when she told me that she was already dating someone else. Not only that, but I was even more frustrated when I found out for Beckie that her boyfriend was an elderly man. I was very confused; to be honest, I even thought that Cassie was crazy or something for her to dump a man as beautiful and young as me to be with an old man, but she had second thoughts about everything and finally agreed to be my girlfriend. I was radiant; I couldn't wait for her to leave the hospital and recover soon, so I could do what I wanted so much with her. It had been a long time since I waited for Cassie; our first time, I almost didn't remember anymore. I got anxious just seeing her; I had to control myself in front of her parents to seem like a good and polite guy and not demonstrate in any way what I was really wanting. I had to control myself in fro

Beckie POV"I can't believe Mark had the gall to lie to you this whole time. But he wasn't saying that he wasn't taking his father's corrupt money for nothing in the world while Joshua has been bankrolling him all this time!?!" I was commenting from my cell phone while taking a trip to Owensboro, which was my and Cassie's birth town.Spencer, Andrew, and Connor had given me time off, so I was able to take a weekend trip to Owensboro because I wanted to see an old friend there. I have been thinking about Mariano a lot lately since what I had done to separate Joshua from Cassie, the way I had regretted and redeemed myself, seeing that the love of those two was really real, and the way they fought against everything and everyone to be together, was inspiring. It also hurt me the way Cassie had to break up from Joshua because she was very hurt with him because of Mark, and it shook me to see Cassie crying in the corners always because her heart was hurt.I was really sad when they broke

Beckie POVI was happy with Mariano; we lived together in a small house in that neighborhood. I had already been one of those women who took care of the house while her husband was working; I always took Mariano a packed lunch at lunchtime and at dinnertime on nights when he worked late and couldn't come home.Not only that, but I had already been that patient woman who believed everything the man said and always kept a false hope that everything would be resolved. The things I endured with Mariano—the financial difficulties we went through due to a lack of money—were things I endured in silence, but he always told me that things would get better for us, but they never did.I really loved Mariano, and I always knew how much he loved me too, but literally, love doesn't fill the belly. I knew Mariano was the right man for me; he always treated me well and always took care of me, but I really couldn't pretend that everything was fine while our lives weren't evolving, so our relationship
