SCANDAL Chapter 67
If Serena had thought that her last meeting with Gerald would be the last time she would see him, she thought wrong. For the next few days after that day, she would find Gerald at all the strangest places. At first, she thought he was following her but he refuted that thought, saying they've just been bumping into each other frequently. No matter how genuine that reason sounded, she didn't believe it. She didn't let it wear her out, focusing on her work and doing the things she used to do. One thing she was grateful for, his presence no longer affected her the way it would have been. And Gerald was behaving himself. At least, she thought he was. After months of waiting, Clara's son, Noah, finally arrived home. She was there in their house to welcome him. Clara was visibly excited to see him and he pulled her into a hug once he jumped down from the carriage. He noticed Serena standing by the side and he immediately pulled away, bowing his head in greeting, his che
SCANDAL Chapter 68
Serena walked home, still angry. All the way, she was huffing, her steps hurried. Noah watched her, still surprised. Today, he'd seen a different side of Serena. One he had never seen. He'd never expected her to be so angry at someone. Which brought up another question. Who was he person she was so angry at? When they arrived at her house, he decided to ask her. It was then she realized she has been walking with someone. She turned red, looking apologetic. " Oh..." She trailed off, lost for words. " He's just someone I know." She replied finally. " Someone you know?" Noah repeated. Someone you know wouldn't make you draw out such strong emotion. Serena looked away at the observation. She tried to change the topic. " Thanks for following me home." She hurriedly let out, collecting the basket that he held from him. " I wish I could talk more about what happened today but I don't want to go there today. Maybe some other time?" She suggested. Noah watched her, too confused to press fur
SCANDAL Chapter 69
After that day, Serena visited Clara less. This was to avoid running into Noah so many times. She figured he would be angry at her rejection and she wasn't wrong. He'd always look away whenever he saw her, a hurt expression on his face. When Clara asked why, she dismissed it, saying it was nothing. Clara also noticed many other things. Serena was always deep in her thoughts and the light has gone out of her eyes. She has tried asking so many times but it's still the same dead end. Serena has withdrawn back to herself. One day, she was sitting outside of her house, watching the streets when she spot an expensive looking carriage drive and park at Serena's house. Serena wasn't home but she had a feeling that this person wouldn't be leaving so quickly. That thought in her head, she decided to see who it was. " Excuse me, but the person you're looking for isn't home. I'd suggest you come back later." She spoke up. The stranger paused in his knocking. He turned
SCANDAL Chapter 70
When Serena arrived home, Clara told her about the stranger's visit. Realizing who it was, she stiffened, all the color draining from her face. A shiver ran down her spine as she stared at Clara, dumbstruck. " Wh-what did you tell him?" She stuttered, unable to help herself. Clara shrugged, looking forward. " Nothing, really. I just told him not to wait for see you or see you afterwards." She said. Clara saw relief in her eyes as she breathed out, a tense smile on her face. She was so happy that Clara made him leave, she wouldn't know what to do if she met him at her doorstep. This week has been very rough on her and she was still so angry at him. You also miss him, a voice whispered to her and she flinched, startled. Miss him? What's wrong with her? Turning to Clara, she managed a small smile. " Thank you so much, Clara. Thank you for telling me to go, I really wouldn't know what to do if I met him there." She said, sincerity dripping into her voice
SCANDAL Chapter 71
Moments after Gerald left Serena's house, the rain began. He breathed out, welcoming the noise as people scampered around to find shelter. His carriage was specifically built for this purpose so he wasn't that worried. Staring at the rain as it fell, he thought about the things he said. Although he feels a bit better letting it all out, his heart was still heavy. He'll finally come to terms with it, he told himself. The rain became heavier, slowing down the carriage. He watched as rain drops trickled down the window, the temperature dropping in the carriage. He clenched his teeth, a bit peeved. If this goes on for much longer, he might have to stop his travel. All of a sudden, the carriage rode to a stop. Gerald glanced forward, confused. He was about to ask why the rider stopped when he spoke up. " Your Grace, there's someone chasing after us." He announced. Gerald stopped, confused. Someone's chasing after this carriage? He stepped into the rain to see
SCANDAL Chapter 72
She faintly heard his grunt of approval as he let him take over. His lips met hers and a sigh escaped her lips. As they ravished each other, Serena distinctly felt his hand settle on her breasts, her breathing hitched. " Relax. Trust me. " he groaned hoarsely, pulling away to kiss her neck. Serena gasped, her eyes squeezed shut. She clung tighter to him, her body on fire. As he nibbled and sucked, his fingers teased and stroked her aroused nipples. She cried out in pleasure, panting softly. Even as her body was reacting to everything Gerald was doing to it, her mind was fighting against her. It kept reminding of all the horrible things she had endured, causing her to flinch and stiffen occasionally. Gerald noticed it and make her forget by peppering kisses all over body. Desire was beating Gerald hard but he did his best to shove it down, making sure this moment last. Raising himself to look at her, panting like an lion that ran miles. " You're so beautiful..
SCANDAL Chapter 73
Serena stirred awake, her body feeling light and her mind lighter. Although it looked so bright, Serena still felt so sleepy. So she closed her eyes and tried to settle back to sleep, a soft sigh escaping her lips. Then, her eyes snapped open, the dizzy fog clearing instantly. She felt the arms around her waist and stiffened, her heart pounding in her chest. Someone is in the bed with her! She'd slept in someone arms! She tried to move away but all her muscles protested against such action, making her wince. A blush grew on her face as memories of the day before began flooding her brain. Gerald coming to tell her he would be leaving and apologising... Her feeling so devastated and running after him... The kiss they shared, what happened after....!? What happened after!? No, way.. they did not?! But the aches in her body and the soreness around in thighs confirmed it more than anything. They really went all the way! Serena laid there in his arms, her eyes wide as saucers, her hear
SCANDAL Chapter 74
The following days were the best days of Serena's life. There was a glow in her eyes and a smile seemed to have been permanently plastered to her face. She went about her business like that, riding in euphoria. Clara noticed it and decided to ask her about it. " Did something good happen?" She asked her finally, calling her close one day. Serena tried to play it down but at Clara's raised brows, she realised she couldn't hide it from the older woman. So she decided to tell her everything. The surprise on her face was evident when Clara listened and told her she was happy for her. She snapped her head up to look at the older, her eyes slowly widening. " Yo-you are?" She couldn't help but ask. Clara raised her shoulders and let it fall. She gestured to the younger woman. " You look so different now." She told her. " Why wouldn't I be? Besides, I already had a talk with your husband and it was obvious you guys still bad feelings for each other." She said. " O
