Lahat ng Kabanata ng DEAR HUSBAND, I'M DONE: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

ADRIAN'S POV “Marshall, what’s happening? Why haven’t I seen or heard from Elena?” Adrian snapped at his attorney, almost about to lash out in anger.“Mr. Hudson, please calm down” Marshall spoke through the phone, cringing at Adrian’s shouting tone."Don't you dare ask me to calm down! You told me the court had signed off on the legal action against her and that it had been served to her, and yet I am still unable to see her!" Adrian thundered. He was on the verge of tearing his entire office apart.“I said it was sent to her home address, not personally handed to her,” Marshall tried to explain.“You must be joking with me! Isn’t it your duty to deliver it to her in person?” Adrian questioned Marshall.“Mr. Hudson, I understand what you’re going through, and I do feel for you,” Marshall said, trying to remain calm despite being offended by Adrian’s tone. “My job as your lawyer is to prepare the legal documents, present them to the court, secure their signature, and ensure they are

ADRIAN'S POV Adrian headed back to his office, leaving strict orders with his secretary that no one should be permitted entry into his office.After that, he drowned himself in grief.Elena’s father had struck him right where it hurt the deepest. Adrian recalled the first moment he truly understood his father’s absence; he had overheard his parents arguing without their awareness.“Are you really going to continue like this?! What about Adrian and Sophie? How long am I supposed to keep covering up for you?!” Jane had shouted at Adrian’s constantly absent father.As he grew up, Adrian hardly ever saw his father. He and Sophie only laid eyes on him once a year, or twice if he happened to be feeling generous.“Jane, I really don’t care what story you decide to give them! His father had roared furiously.Adrian had been devastated and taken aback. Their mother had always assured them that their father could not be present at their school parties, because he was completely absorbed in bui

ELENA'S POV It was as if I were dreaming, because what sort of discussion was I having with my so-called doctor? How did I find myself in this kind of trouble? I definitely hadn’t done anything to warrant it! I only went to register like every other expectant mother, so this just didn’t add up to me.“What exactly do you know about me?” I asked, my heart beating fast.. For some reasons, I was scared of Reid's answer. I had come across a couple of dangerous and tricky people in the past; Danielle was one of them, but this felt different entirely, and the thought that I had just walked straight into it made it worse.“I know you’re the ex-wife of Adrian Hudson, who is still very much alive,” Reid revealed.My jaw dropped in shock.“How do you know that?” I asked Reid, completely stunned.This was just a chance encounter, not something arranged, right? Sandra couldn’t have set me up like this. She didn’t seem like the type who would do something like that. Besides, she had only given me

ELENA'S POV I headed back into my appointment , uneasy, rattled and completely bewildered.I thought of staying away from Reid, but I could only accomplish that if I left the town, and that would be utterly impossible seeing that Clara's death was still under investigation.I was eager to find out how Reid had managed to uncover secrets about me, because he refused to reveal anything. I wasn't even answering Adrian's name, so had his investigation somehow led him to Adrian?There were questions racing through my mind that I desperately needed answers to. Questions like why Reid had chosen me above all his other patients to draw close to.He was a charming, handsome young man who could have any woman he desired, so why me, a pregnant, solitary woman who serves tables at a tiny coffee shop?I walked out of my room and headed over to the coffee shop. Deep down, I had a strong suspicion that Sandra was involved in all of this. Deep down, I was convinced that Sandra was hiding something, be

DANIELLE'S POV “Sorry, but my money only lapsed a few hours ago,” Danielle said, her heart thudding slightly.This was clearly not good at all, because she didn’t have any money on her, and this could become messy if it ever leaked out.“According to our hotel rules, you are required to renew your money or be escorted out twenty minutes after it expires, and Miss Danielle, you’ve already exceeded the time” one of them stated."Just give me a moment, please? I promise I will get the payment handled," Danielle urged, even though she didn't have anyone in mind who could lend her the money, but she just needed them to give her some space so she could pull her thoughts together and act fast.This was definitely not good for her reputation.If Danielle had known they enforced such a strict policy, she wouldn’t have stayed here in the first place. When she checked into the hotel a few days ago and was handed their policy booklet, she merely skimmed through it instead of properly reading it,
