Semua Bab Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?! : Bab 111 - Bab 120

DEENA'S POVI've thought about it day and night. I talked to Dan, asked Ethan, and my friends for the right thing to do and they all told me the same answer—to give Trent a chance. "If he's proven to be a shitty father to Rosie, then don't let him near her ever again. But I guess we'll never know until you try. You've been married to him for a few years, Dee. Do you think Trenton is incapable of accepting and loving his own child?" That's the thing. We never really talked about it so I have no idea, but I know he's a good uncle to his nephew and niece. He'd always prepare a gift for them on their birthdays, and not the kind of gifts that you just buy out of nowhere for the sake of giving. Trenton takes his time asking their parents what they would want to have no matter what the price is.What fully changed my mind was what my brother told me."If our mother is still here, she would say the same thing, Dee."And so I contacted my lawyer to finalize the custody without having to ask

DEENA'S POV"Why is he always like this when you're around?! When will you stop hurting my son, Deena?!" Leonora wept, her voice filling the whole hospital room. "Trent, please wake up." "I didn't do anything, Leonora. He came from my house and the guard told me he heard a loud screech. When I went to check on him, he lost consciousness. You heard the doctor, nothing serious happened to him and he must have fainted due to shock. Must you blame me for everything?" I retorted, not letting her put the blame on me when I was just concerned. "She's right. She's the one who helped our son, honey. If it weren't for her, who knows what would happen to our son." Hudson told his wife, taking my side. "The doctor already said that Trenton is fine and that he'll wake up in a few hours, Mom." "Why are you all ganging up on me? Does it make sense to you that Trenton is at her place this late? And look at her, she reeks of alcohol!" I sighed exasperatedly. "Because I have a life and because Tre

TRENTON'S POV"Rosie is admitted to the hospital." I informed Denise the moment we met. I studied her expression, feeling stupid for even suspecting her just because Deena said so, but according to her, Rosie was the one who told her about the cookie. Rosie is a child and she wouldn't lie, but I trust Denise and I know she wouldn't do anything to my daughter. She must have a good reason for wanting her to keep eating the cookie. "Oh my God. Is she okay?" Denise's eyes widened in concern and I knew she wasn't faking it."I just visited her. She suffered from food poisoning and diarrhea but she was much better when I saw her." Denise released a relieved breath, but when she turned to look at me, she probably saw something in my eyes and the smile disappeared from her face. "You... You don't think it's because of us, do you? Or are you suspecting me of poisoning her, Trent?"Denise pulled away from me and jumped away. I tried to touch her but she stopped me with her hand. "I am not

TRENTON'S POVEverything is set and the wedding is tomorrow. I should be excited and over the moon that I would be marrying the love of my life, my first love and my dream woman. But for some reason, it felt like I was just forcing myself. It felt like something was missing.To get rid of the feeling, I decided to clean my house and throw everything that could possibly remind Denise of Deena away. I emptied the secret room that has her things. She'd be living with me after the wedding and I didn't want to upset her and have her think that I still treasure Deena.I opened the safe I had in my office and a frown etched on my face when I saw what was hidden there. "What the hell is this?" I shuffled through the folders and envelopes I retrieved and opened them one by one. The frown on my face deepened with each photo or document I saw. "Who's this?" I wondered when I saw an unknown woman and her name unconsciously left my mouth. "Sandra." As if it served as a keyword that will unlo

DEENA'S POV"I saw Trent leaving earlier. What is he doing here, Deena?" Out of all the times Trenton decided to visit me, it happened to be when my brother and his family were here. "He was drunk and he showed up out of nowhere." My lips were still tingling and my knees were still shaking because of the kiss we shared. God, how I almost gave in, but it was wrong. He might have remembered me, but he was still in a committed relationship with Denise. When Trent left, I just collapsed and cried because of the sadness and longing inside me. How I have longed to feel his arms around me. How many times did I dream about kissing him again?Daniel sighed deeply and placed his hands on his hips. "Deena, he's getting married now. I know that you're still in love with him, but you are my sister and I won't let you destroy your life like that." "He said he remembers everything and he wants to be with me again, Dan." I responded with tears welling up in my eyes. "Dee..." "It would have bee
