All Chapters of Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?! : Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

TRENTON'S POV"Trenton, you're drunk and you're not making any sense right now." Deena was about to leave when I grabbed her in a gentle yet desperate way. I was drunk, sure, but my mind's never been clearer. "Trust me when I say that everything I'm saying is the truth, Deena. I'm not lying. I'm done lying. I'm done pretending that I'm fine when I'm not. Hell, I am far from being fine." My thumb caressed her smooth skin and it felt like I didn't have the right to touch her. Not anymore. No matter how much I want to cling to her. Because she's now someone else's. "So you want me to believe that Sandra had the power over you? You? The oh-so-powerful CEO of Shine Network? One of the wealthiest men in the country? Please, Trenton. If you're going to lie, at least make it believable." She sarcastically said and removed my hold on her, instantly making me feel cold. I have been feeling nothing but coldness gripping my heart and body. When will I feel warm again? "I don't know why you'

DEENA'S POVI think I lost consciousness for a minute after I heard what the doctor said. I didn't realize that the doctor left long ago, and that I was sitting in the waiting room with Ethan beside me. I just... stared at the wall for God knows how long, not hearing or seeing anything. "I was told that his family is in California and the plane will arrive in a couple of hours or so." Ethan informed me after I calmed down a little, but I still felt empty, drained and numbed. I felt guilt eating me from the inside, finally realizing how shitty I treated my own boyfriend. I freaked out earlier over my ex and completely forgot he was there. I left him in the car and ran to see how the said ex was doing. And now, he was accompanying me while waiting for Trenton to be transferred to his room. I sighed deeply and it hurt every part of my body. I turned to my supposed partner and held his hands in mine. "I'm sorry for neglecting you, Eth. For... For worrying about my ex." I sincerely apo

DEENA'S POVWhen I went back to work a couple of days after Trent's accident, I received an earful from Cassie and Jane, but I avoided their questions about what happened. Trent's family and I decided that we'd alternate in looking after him, but if we really can't, they hired a private nurse just in case. They insisted that I didn't need to stay, but I also insisted that I wanted to stay beside Trent until he woke up—which we can't be sure of when.To make it up to my co-stars and the staff members for the inconvenience, I prepared lunch for everyone. "Deena, what were you doing at the scene where Trenton Outlaw met with an accident?" "How is your ex-husband, Deena?" "Did you and Trenton get back together?" I took a deep breath to calm myself and decided to ignore the questions being thrown at me after a whole day's filming. I already expected that they would be waiting for me to get some answers. "Let's go home, please. I miss my daughter." I exhaled in exhaustion and slumped

DEENA'S POV"There were no changes in his vitals indicating that the patient has regained consciousness or showed any sign of progress." The doctor told us the moment he checked Trenton, completely rushing my hope. When I felt his hand twitching a little, I just broke down and excitedly told his family about it. We immediately called the nurse and his attending physician arrived to check if there was any progress, only for us to be disappointed in the end. "But we can't really say for sure. It rarely happens, but it's a way for the patient to make his loved ones feel that they can hear you. Still, I will not take it as a sign of the patient waking up." Hope bloomed in my chest again and I know the doctor is only saying it as some sort of comfort for us, but I appreciated it. And I appreciated that none of them told me that I was just hallucinating."Thank you, doc." We patiently waited for any movement from Trenton again, but more days passed and he didn't move a finger or even m

DEENA'S POVI spent days creating the perfect bait for Sandra in between taking care of Rosie and Trenton. Not to mention that I was also busy filming the series, and unfortunately, we had to go out of town for three days. Trenton's family helped me with my plan, and we also asked for Oscar's advice. With this plan, we'll also prove to Sandra that she's not the only one with strong connections. We started with the first step, and it is to spread the news that Trenton has woken up even when it's nothing but a lie. With this lie, we'll aggravate Sandra, and she will start to overthink if he's really awake. For the second step, we posted guards outside his room to prevent anyone from entering and only identified hospital staff are allowed inside. Our plan was successful because the next day, Sandra who's been hiding for weeks has finally shown herself in public. When she was refused entry, she started creating a scene. "I'm Trenton's girlfriend! Why am I not allowed inside? Trent, I'
