Chapter 31

Brianna’s POV“What do you mean ‘what’?” I snapped at Adrian, rushing towards him, despite my sharp words. “How did you get yourself cut? You said you’d be…”“Ahem.”Barrett’s voice cut in from behind Louis. I felt myself freeze in mortification. I was so enraged and worried that I didn’t even realize he was there. Adrian must not have remembered too, because at noticing my reaction, he turned to him and dismissed him with a lazy wave of his hand. “You may leave us, Barrett.”“Alright, Boss.” And with that, he strolled around the side of the house and out of sight. I watched him go for a moment before returning my hard gaze to Adrian.“How did you get that cut?”Before I even realized what I was doing, my hands had already moved, fingers reaching up to his face, tracing the gash that now marked his cheek. It wasn’t deep, and perhaps I was being dramatic, but it was still bleeding slightly, and that was enough to make my chest tighten.My face was inches from his as I examined it, a

Chapter 32

Brianna’s POVI woke up on the edge this morning. The morning light filtered in through the open blinds making me even more agitated than normal. I wasn’t used to this — the space, the brightness. My old room at the Stewart mansion barely had a window worth mentioning.“Ughhh.” The groan tore through me as I stretched across the mattress.Then it hit me, I suddenly had a strange and weird feeling. I missed Adrian. Just last night he was in bed with me by the time I woke.I rolled over on the bed, picked up my phone from the bedside table, checking for messages.Nothing. There were no calls, no texts. Just nothing. My father was still angry with me. My family too. The silence from them felt heavier than any words they could’ve said. It only means he still blame me and that alone is why I don’t regret my distance from Adrian.I could only hope Emily had made it back home safely… that at least something had gone right.Adrian had promised to let her go. I dropped my phone back onto

Chapter 33

Brianna’s POV“I’m sorry I couldn’t attend your wedding.” She shrieked, pressing her hand to her chest. “I was out of town and this meathead couldn’t wait a second longer to get married.“I…It’s alright,” I assured.Adrian gaped, “I told you days in advance when the wedding will be. Don’t blame it on me. You clearly didn’t have it as a priority.”The lady in question glared at him, swatting his arm. “And I told you that I couldn’t make it back by then and that you should hold it off a little until I get back home.”‘Home?’“Why would I do that?”I stood there watching them go back and forth. The whole exchange seemed like childish banter, playful and familiar in a way that came from years and years of knowing each other. The kind I couldn’t manage with Adrian myself. He never gave off the impression of being able to have conversations like this.It made me painfully uncomfortable. I was… envious. It was an emotion I couldn’t quite explain. I did not even know who she was, but I neede

Chapter 34

Adrian’s POVI observe my wife from a distance. Her small shy smile as Andreina drags her through the stalls, scanning and choosing about every piece of clothing on the racks.She went through a show of pulling it to Brianna’s front, clicking her tongue as she appraised the fitting and pushed it to Barrett. They repeated that for about twenty more stores. I made sure to follow them through everything, even though I did so inconspicuously.They were blowing through my account, the notifications that came in were a perfect reminder. I really did not mind the shopping, money was never a problem. I’d empty my bank account in a heartbeat for both of them. My wife especially, Andy was already such a brat.The only problem I had right now was that I couldn’t tell if my wife enjoyed this whole thing. From where I stood, she looks quite fidgety and standoffish, glancing around like she didn’t belong there as they moved from store to store.I couldn’t really tell from her face, I wasn’t close

Chapter 35

Brianna’s POVI remained silent for a while as Adrian leads me to the car. It was the White Escalade that had brought me to his home, our home.Looking back at the past few weeks, I couldn’t help but realize so many things. How it has felt like I had known Adrian for decades, how there was easy communication and conversation between us, how he always looked at me like I was the only person he could really see and the only person he ever wanted to see. He never spoke harshly to me, never raised his voice like he thought I might shatter under it. I wasn’t used to that kind of gentleness, but I found myself leaning into it, welcoming it. Now, I even threw tantrums because I knew deep down, he would indulge me. He was simply just familiar in a way I couldn’t decipher. And somehow, despite the secrets, despite the absurd lengths he claimed to go for my sake, I trusted him. More than I should.“Would you please forgive me?” he asked once more, his voice quieter now and even more pleadin

Chapter 36

Adrian’s POVI couldn’t keep still. My heart was beating at a million beats per second. I couldn’t keep still, my mind was racing with a thousand different outcome.Brianna was currently in the ICU, she fainted and hadn’t opened her eyes since the house. Shit!‘What the fuck have I done?’One thing was very certain now, my wife was very stubborn. If only I had any sanity left to myself, I’d have found a way to he her off my trail and stop asking questions about her past and the secrets I held—for her own safety!But she forced my hands, threatening me with her absence and I caved. I fucking caved. And it happened, She fucking passed out.And I hadn’t even told her anything yet. Just the mere sight of the old house brought her to this state and I hate myself for letting her convince me.I should have held my ground, refused her. I was usually good and manipulating people and having my way but with her, I just…Fucking hell!I paced the hospital halls, barely restraining myself from b

Chapter 37

Brianna’s POV I watched his crestfallen face approach my bed with slow and deliberate steps. If not for the expression on his face, I would think he was walking toward an enraged animal. “Adrian,” I croaked once more. “What are you hiding from me?” His face crumpled as if my words struck straight to his heart. “My love,” he started, now by my bed, looming down on my frailty. “What do you mean? Why would I hide anything from you?” “Adrian, please don’t lie to me. I..” my voice gave out and a cough tore through me, swallowing my words. Andy jumped in immediately. I almost forgot she was here. “Brianna,” she said, taking my hand and squeezing softly. “Bri, please don’t tire yourself out. Adrian would never hide anything from you.” “But you will.” I accused. I watched the siblings exchange a knowing glance, however inconspicuous they thought it to be. I knew they were hiding something. I also didn’t know how to tell them both that I remembered them or that I sort of did. I wasn’t

Chapter 38

Brianna’s POV Tears rimmed my eyes as I walked up the hill towards the orphanage home where I grew up. The years had not been very easy on the building. The worn out and washed up signage glowed faintly from here. The memories from my stay rushing to me in waves. St. Claire’s Orphanage. It all felt like a fever dream now looking from the outside. Once upon a time, this place was my whole life. My only mission in life was to leave here in one piece, find my biological parents and lead a slow and peaceful life. The contrast from my aspirations then and my reality now was truly amusing. “Are you okay?” Adrian’s voice cuts through the fog of my reminiscence. I wiped at the lone tear that managed to escape my eye, sniffing. “Yeah, yeah.” I affirmed. “I’m fine. I’m all good.” Adrian stopped, moving in front of me only to turn and hold on to my arm. His eyes were soft and sad as he accessed me, “Mi amor, you don’t have to do this. I promise you that we can find another way to find
