Chapter 112ALEX’S POVI had never been the kind of man who believed that a beautiful place could change the way a person felt, but as I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of my private residence that morning, watching my staff make the final preparations for Serena’s arrival, I found myself reconsidering everything I had ever believed about happiness.The place was already beautiful enough to make anyone who entered it forget about the outside world, yet nothing seemed good enough for the woman I was expecting. I had spent most of the previous night thinking about her, replaying the sound of her laughter from our last conversation and remembering the way she had spoken to me with a mixture of mischief and tenderness that made me feel as though I had somehow been granted a second chance at something I had lost long before I understood its value. For years, I had convinced myself that the life I wanted was impossible, that Serena belonged to someone else and that I had no

Chapter 114Alex's povIt's safe to say Adrian is blind but Alex is definitely not and this time, no one is stopping ALEX BLACKWOOD..... from having Serena. NO ONE!!!!!There was something different about her that morning, something I had noticed even through our phone conversations. She looked lighter, as though she had finally decided to stop carrying the weight of everyone else's expectations. Yet beneath that new confidence, I could still see traces of the woman who had spent years trying to be a good wife, the woman who had believed that patience and devotion could protect her from betrayal. I knew better than to assume that one difficult night had erased all the hurt she carried, but I hoped that, for a few hours, I could give her a reason to forget it existed.I took out my phone and sent her a message.Look to your left, beautiful.I saw her pick up her phone almost immediately. She read the message, frowned slightly, and turned her head towards the road leading into the quie

Chapter 116Alex's pov"What?" she asked when she noticed me staring."Nothing.""Alex."I laughed softly. "I am simply trying to understand how you managed to become so terrifying overnight."She gasped in exaggerated offence. "Terrifying? Is that what you think of me?""Only when you are being impressive.""That is not a compliment.""It absolutely is."She narrowed her eyes at me. "You are lucky I like you."The words slipped out so naturally that neither of us reacted immediately. Then she seemed to realise what she had said, and a delicate flush crept across her cheeks. I felt something warm and dangerously hopeful stir inside me, but I resisted the urge to make too much of it. I did not want to frighten her away by treating every tender moment as a declaration. Instead, I raised her hand to my lips and placed a gentle kiss against her knuckles."I am very lucky," I told her.For a few seconds, she simply looked at me. Then she turned towards the window again, pretending to be fa

Chapter 118Alex's pov"Where exactly are you taking me?"I smiled. "Somewhere quiet.""That is not an answer.""It is the only one you are getting for now."She narrowed her eyes. "You do realise that I have every right to be suspicious of you.""Of course. Suspicion is a very healthy habit.""Especially when dealing with men who arrive at crossroads with entire convoys."I laughed. "I will make a note of that."She settled back into her seat, but I could tell she was becoming more curious with every turn. The route seemed to lead away from everything familiar, and the farther we travelled, the more the landscape began to feel untouched. There were no shops or houses, no busy intersections, and no crowds gathering along the roadside. Instead, the trees grew thicker, the air seemed cooler, and the road wound through a stretch of land that looked as though it had been deliberately

Chapter 120Alex's pov"What do you think?" I asked.She turned towards me, still holding my hand. "I think you have been hiding an entire world from everyone.""Not everyone."Her expression softened. "Just me?""Especially you."She laughed under her breath and shook her head. "You really know how to make a woman feel special."I stepped closer, lowering my voice. "I am not trying to make you feel special, Serena. I am trying to show you that you are."For a brief moment, the playful expression left her face. She looked at me with a tenderness that made my heart ache, and I wondered whether she could see how much those words meant to me as well. Then she lowered her gaze, smiling shyly, and I decided not to push the moment any further. Instead, I offered her my arm."Come on, beautiful. I have something else to show you."She slipped her arm through mine, and together we
