SO SHE WANTS TO BE A SECOND WIFE? SELENE IS A QUEEN 👑 FROM MISTRESS TO WIFE… WOW. MONEY REALLY ANSWERS PRAYERS. Screens lit up everywhere. At Cross Empire, the office energy shifted. Whispers floated between cubicles. “Isn’t that… Mrs Cross?”

“Well, I’m around if you need anything.” “Thanks.” “Don’t mention it, honey. Just be happy. I married the man I thought was ‘safe’ when I was young, and it turned into a disaster. The one who got away left for good…and I’m alone. I’m doing all right, but I look back and think about what might have been. And I wish I could do that summer over.” She sighed. “Don’t make my mistake.”

"If you think you can lay a filthy hand on my daughter, then you must be ready to rot in jail. Actually, I blame Etta who has always been so shameless. First, she had given birth out of wedlock, and now, she's ready to be a second wife. You've always been a disgrace to this family, Etta" "Really?" Etta scoffed and stood up. This time around, she couldn't restrict the tears. "Then maybe, you should just throw me out since I'm worthless to you! Listen mum, I don't care what you or anyone thinks on this table. Nathan and I genuinely love each other and will be getting married in a week time - with or without your blessings. He is mine and mine alone, and the earlier you start getting used to th

I want to look my wife in the eyes and tell her I love her in front of a room full of people who were there to celebrate our joining. For a long time, I told myself I would never get married again. I said that I would never take another mate again… but that changed after I marked Judy and discovered that she was my second chance mate. Everything changed since that moment; she was the mother of my future baby and the woman I planned to spend the rest of my life with. I was momentarily stunned with Judy randomly got up and ran out of the room after her speech, so I hadn’t had much time to think about it. I just stared after her… she went in the direction of the bathrooms.

It's good to be back in Manila, but not alone and in my place anymore. Her house here in Makati, where We agreed to stay. For sure, our family won't let us live separately. So I need to give up my condo, giving up my single life. I lived alone for a while, then now, suddenly married, and every morning when I wake up, I will see Ally. I never thought I would get wedded this way. ~~~

I certainly feel that way right now. The evening seemed to drag on, I tried to sleep, but the more I tried the harder it was to drift off. I thought back over our marriage trying to figure out where I had gone wrong and if I’d missed any signs. It was raining again, and I opened the curtains to look at the night sky, all I could see were tiny beads of rain falling down the window pane, I felt cold, lonely and sad. *

It started with small things—the way he always seemed to notice when I needed space, the way our conversations turned into late-night talks over dinner, the way his presence no longer felt suffocating. And now, here I was, standing at the doors of a grand ballroom, wearing a wedding dress I never thought I’d wear again, about to walk down the aisle toward a man I never thought I’d end up with. A part of me still couldn’t believe this was real. The music started, and the doors slowly opened. My heart pounded in my chest as I took my first step, my fingers gripping the bouquet a little too tightly. And that’s when I saw them.

Peculiar looked thoughtful, the pillow held tighter. "And don't rush," I continued, my tone firm. "Don't rush into marriage, no matter what anyone says, no matter how old you get. A bad marriage is a life sentence. Being alone is a thousand times better than being lonely and abused in someone else's house.” "But… what if we get older and no one comes?" Peculiar asked, her voice small, voicing the fear I knew they both harbored. "What if we wait and wait, and we end up alone?"

I certainly didn't want to live with them acting like a married couple. “It's been four years Antonio. Four good years,” I muttered, tears flowing non-stop. I couldn't believe he was throwing all that away. What was I expecting getting married to a Mafia boss? I knew deep down that something bad was going to happen. But not this way. Not this manner. Not this marriage! Antonio and I had been married for four years. I needed someone to invest in my business so I made a deal with him. We fell in love. I fell in love.

“I’m sure there are many dying to date such a charming girl like you.” I laughed, shaking my head. “No thanks, I’m better off living alone.” He smiled and placed an arm around my shoulders. “That’s what I used to think before I met your mom, Ellie. I never thought I would marry after my disastrous first marriage. But it happened when I was least expecting it. Everyone deserves a second chance in life. But if you wait for it, you end up feeling more devastated. So, focus on your studies for now. It will happen when it has to.”
