Semua Bab The Unfaithful Lover: Bab 1 - Bab 9

When I came across Serena Reed's page, I was preparing our anniversary dinner.Although Vincent Carter said he would not make it back in time, I knew him well. For every important occasion over our five-year marriage, no matter how busy he was, he always came home. He had never changed. However, this time, maybe things were different.I kept calling his number, unwilling to give up. It took a long time before he finally answered, sounding somewhat breathless, "Nina, I'm still busy. I'll be home much later tonight."Tears slowly filled my eyes, but I still said gently, "Go ahead with your work. I'll wait for you at home."Vincent came home very late, around 11.30 pm. He held a bouquet of flowers, embracing me with a guilty expression."Sorry, there's been so much going on with the patrol team lately. I've been neglecting you, but I brought your favorite lilies. Do you like them?"He hugged me with practiced ease, his large hand covering my belly as he whispered, "Has the little

When I returned to the villa, Vincent still had not come back.I walked into the bedroom and quietly packed my belongings. I gathered all the gifts Vincent had given me over the years, such as shoes, handbags and various pieces of jewelry, and packed them all up.I scheduled an appointment with the auction house staff to come pick them up and sell them for me. I kept only my identification documents, a few changes of clothes and some cash.Just as I closed my suitcase, Vincent walked in with damp hair, having clearly just showered. However, the lingering female pheromones on his body could not be washed away no matter what.My stomach began churning again."What are you doing? Did you get some rest?"He reached out to take my hand, but suddenly noticed something. "Nina, where's your wedding ring?"I pulled my hand back and replied flatly, "I took it off."Vincent was obviously displeased. "I designed that myself. The wedding ring represents my love for you. How could you take i

Vincent hung up the phone, still smiling slightly. However, Serena's mood was rather poor. She began sulking. "Going home alone is so lonely. Would you mind taking me home first?"Vincent hesitated, wanting to refuse. "I promised Nina I'd be home in two hours. If I take you home first, I won't have enough time."Serena shook his arm, wheedling. "Traffic jams aren't that unexpected. You can always find an excuse. You'll have plenty of time to spend with her later, but I can only have you for a short while!"Vincent eventually gave in. He took Serena home and thoughtfully prepared a lavish meal for her.Only after cooking did he remember to call me. However, my phone was already turned off, and Vincent felt uneasy because I had never turned off my phone before.Serena happened to walk out carrying dishes and utensils. Seeing his concern, she comforted him. "Don't panic. Maybe her phone just died. Come eat with me first."Vincent frowned and firmly refused her. "I said no! I've alre

A call from an unknown number came to Vincent's phone, breaking the awkwardness of the situation.Vincent quickly answered, hoping that it was me calling him. However, he was promptly disappointed. It was actually a staff member from City Hall."Alpha Vincent, your mate submitted an application to dissolve your mate bond. She asked us to deliver the agreement to you. Would it be convenient for you to come sign it?"Vincent's expression immediately turned ugly. "Where's Nina? Where is she? I'm coming right now. Please make sure you keep her there!"He hastily hung up and rushed to his car without explaining to the police, speeding toward City Hall.Even though he ran countless red lights and was cursed at by numerous pedestrians, he did not care at all.Bursting into City Hall, Vincent looked around but did not see me anywhere. "Where's Nina? She still won't see me? Please ask her to come out. I need to talk to her."The City Hall staff member shook his head. "Sorry, I can't do t

After leaving the Shadow pack, I flew directly to the northern forest.I built a small cabin on the edge of the forest, and this became my new home.The scenery here was beautiful and my life was simple but pleasant. Every day, I set up my easel by the window, painting the beautiful snowy landscape while sipping milk or tea.I peacefully prepared for my pupbirth here. Although winter life was quiet, this pack had simple, honest folk, and the neighbors were all very excited about my pup's arrival.They often came to visit, bringing homemade cookies, fresh fruit they had grown, or fruit tea they had brewed.Today, my neighbor, Julie Hanson, came over with freshly baked cookies."Hey, Nina, is the pup being good today? You look great. Come try my new cookies. I added fresh mint leaves!"I invited her inside and poured her a steaming cup of milk.She asked carefully about my pregnancy, and when she learned I would give birth in two months, she nervously asked if I had reserved a ho
