Nina packed her things, she had made up her mind to immediately move into Gavin's apartment. Jennifer and Courtney said nothing after nearly three weeks of not coming home. They were angry and annoyed with her, thinking that Nina had lied to them.Nina knew she didn't need to explain anything because the relationship between her and Aiden wasn't something she could say easily, moreover she knew that they were both big fans of Aiden."Okay, that's all. Captain will pick me up in a moment, that means this is the last time I will be in this apartment." She thought. Suddenly her eyes fell on the teddy bear Aiden had given her when they went to the wonderland park on a date, a week before they ended their relationship.Nina smiled gently while holding this doll, it made her remember her memories with Aiden."Why teddy bear?""Because it suits you!""Why does it suit me?""When I was little I really liked teddy bears. My family called me Teddy Bear, that's why I wanted you to always be able
"Aiden...!"Right when his grandmother's face appeared a few steps in front of him, Aiden immediately received a ferocious hug from his grandmother."Grandma, how are you? Ugh...your hug is too strong, Grandma!" He said. He couldn't believe that his grandmother was still as strong as before."Hi Aiden, how are you? Why didn't you tell us first?" Asked Nathan, his 21-year-old cousin who was still in college."I just wanted to surprise you! Grandma, please let go of your arms!" He asked."How dare you refuse your grandmother's embrace, you impudent grandson!""Mom, your favorite tea is prepared! Let's drink tea first!" Said Mrs. Emila who felt sorry for her son and was forced to distract her mother with her favorite tea.They sat on the sofa enjoying tea and cake. Aiden was reluctant to open the conversation because he already knew what they were going to ask him."Have you met your dad?" Ask Grandma, this is the first question she has to answer."I haven't seen him yet!""When are you
Aiden and his mother walked hand in hand towards the hall where the party was being held. Almost all family members from his mother's and father's side as well as invited guests were present. Aiden could see his father's face smiling kindly at his colleagues who came and he seemed to always enjoy his role as the alpha who was always the center of attention.Aiden wasn't sure he could be like his father, obviously he wasn't the type of man who liked being surrounded by lots of people and being the center of attention, it made him uncomfortable. But since deciding to accept his grandmother's request, he is determined to change the course of his life. He will walk like a dashing and authoritative alpha wolf, no longer a sigma wolf who always isolates himself and is far from the crowd.Heartbreak always makes him change and he knows that it's a process he has to go through as a man that demands him to grow. As he walked with his mother, tens of pairs of eyes stared at him in awe. He is ve
"Aiden...!"Someone called his name, Aiden stopped walking and looked back. He was surprised to see Cindy who called him."Cindy?""How are you? Nice to see you here!" Cindy smiled sweetly. She looked very happy because she could meet Aiden again since that day.Somehow Aiden felt a little awkward, especially every time he remembered Nina's words that Cindy loved him."I'm fine. When are you coming?""It's summer vacation, right? I'm taking two weeks off. So my family and I decided to vacation in Alberta. My dad got an invite to your grandfather's birthday party so I came with them.""So, your parents are here too?""Yes, I saw my mother talking to your mother and grandmother earlier.""Is that so? Thank God!""Where's Nina? I can't see her!""She is not here!""You didn't bring her? I thought you would introduce her to your family!""I hope so!" Aiden said. He smiled bitterly. Cindy could sense something was wrong."You and Nina had a fight? S-sorry, I shouldn't be asking this. But-"
"What? Married to Stuart Lombardi's daughter?" Granny was surprised to hear Aiden's statement while they were enjoying breakfast quietly.Aiden's statement shocked his grandmother and mother, especially his mother who knew that Aiden really loved Nina and planned to marry her."Aiden, what did you say?" Ask Mrs. Emila. She knew that Aiden was hiding something from her."Didn't your mother say that you already have a wife in New York? A young woman named Karenina Morales?""That's true, Grandma. But we decided to broke up and I'm in a relationship with Cindy.""Emila, what is this?""I don't know, Mom. Looks like Aiden has something to explain to me!" She said as she shot her son a glare.Aiden shuddered, he knew that he couldn't hide anything from his mother. A week ago, he had told his mother that he and Nina had broken up. If he suddenly said that he was going to marry Cindy, his mother would be suspicious.After finishing breakfast, Mrs. Emila asked Aiden to meet her in her room, s
Manila, Philippines, November 5, 2018Nina held Gavin's hand as they got out of the taxi that took them to the hotel where they were staying. Gavin is a quiet person and only speaks when necessary, but he always pays attention to every little thing related to Nina."You need something?" Gavin asked when Nina held his hand tightly."No, I don't need anything!" Nina smiled shyly. She opened the hotel room door and sat down on the bed. She was tired from a long flight.Gavin put and arranged their suitcases in the corner of the room, in contrast to Nina who is practical and relaxed, Gavin is very perfectionist and serious, they complement each other."Shall we go to see Dion now?" Ask Gavin."I think Dion hasn't come home from school yet. Usually he'll be home at 4 pm and now it's still 12 noon.""So, we should have lunch first!""Come on, Captain! Relax a bit. We only got here 10 minutes ago and you can't rest at all. Come on, sit beside me!" She said while patting the bed beside her.G
Nina couldn't stop crying, she felt very guilty because she had left her brother for three years. She had worked very hard so she could send money to her aunt to meet the needs of Dion, whom they cared for.In the middle of the hospital corridor, the only sound that could be heard was Nina's crying. She was confused and also devastated, she had not had time to ask her uncle and aunt about what really happened to Dion."I've tried very hard. Studying and living alone in a foreign country, surviving on my own. I left Dion with doubts at that time. When I got a scholarship, Dion was very happy, he said he was very proud of me, he supported me and hope that one day our life will change for the better. We always dreamed of being able to leave the house and live in our house. A week before Dion's 12th birthday, he had an accident. At that time, he and his friends were selling newspapers by riding a bicycle. But a car lost control and hit him until his leg was crushed. Dion's right leg had t
New York, United States of AmericaMarch 5, 2024Aiden smoothed the tie around his neck, as much as possible he did everything alone even though Cindy was always willing to do it. Aiden realizes that even though they have been married for five years, he still does not have feelings of love for his wife.Obviously their marriage was only a contract marriage and if he wanted, Aiden could have filed for divorce from Cindy right now. But he couldn't do it, Cindy was a very nice woman and he couldn't stand her."Aiden, how about this tie? I bought it yesterday, I think it matches the color of the suit you're wearing!""Okay, you can put it on for me!" He said. He knew that Cindy really liked helping Aiden tie his tie.Cindy happily did it, she is the ideal wife for Aiden. She is beautiful, intelligent, elegant and has a heart of gold. Everyone praises them as a very well-matched couple and the family demands that they have children soon."Aiden, can I ask you something?""Of course!""Do y
