Third Person's POV Celina didn't say anything about what Jefferson had told her, but there left a light of hope that their marriage will become fruitful in the future. Noli invited them to a meal and they obliged. "You should know that this is your treat." Jefferson told him which made him laugh. "When did you become stingy?" his friend asked. "When I married her." he replied, smiling as he knew that he would be getting a violent reaction from Celina. Which he was not wrong at all. "When did I teach you to become one?" she asked. "When I left you spent no more than 1000 a month. Maybe you were thinking that I am going to compute everything that you will be spending while I'm away, so I realized that I am stingy." he replied, looking at her raising her brows not leaving her gaze. "Eherm, love birds, please note that I am still here." Noli said and Celina looked at him, shyly. Jefferson grabbed her hand and squeezed it slightly causing her to turn to him again. "Don't mention him,

Celina's POV Xia had been my friend since I came to the orphanage. Yes, she was being bullied by the others when I first saw her and I pitied her so I helped her and fought back against those kids who were bullying her. I was never a pushover and if someone hurt me from any of them, I see to it that I paid them back, double the pain, double the suffering. Xia didn't leave my side after I saved her from those bullies and we proclaimed ourselves partners and had been to punishment and detentions together. At first, she was crying, but when I told her that I was there for her, that's the only time that she stopped. I always hugged her when she was scared. For me, at that time, we were each other's strength. Daniel and Lalaine adopted me and I promised to her that I am going to visit her often, since I thought both my adoptive parents loved and wanted me. But because it was the total opposite of what I had expected, I never got the chance to visit her. I was so worried about her bec

Xia's POV Celina was so lucky to get married to Jefferson. When I first found out about it when she told me that, I was already envious of her. How could the old Mr. Scott married his son to her? I remembered how were back in the orphanage; The kids were bullying me and she saw that and interfered. I felt relieved when she showed up and fought them. She had bruises all over her but she didn't care. She told me that she's going to stay with me and she did. But because of what she did, she became famous in the orphanage. The fact that she was really beautiful made all the boys admire her and the girls envious. I am also one of them. She was very confident ever since so I thought she was really smart. But when we had our little class, she always said that she didn't know the answer so I thought I am better than her with studying. But even after that, the boys still liked her. I often heard other kids tells me behind my back that I was her slave because I was always following her. Alt

Celina's POV Just what was wrong with me? Why can't I say no to his kisses and touches? I don't remember myself being this wanton over a man. He had this effect on me and I started to worry about me in the future. I had never been into a man and he was my first with everything. Surely, I will never forget about what I heard when he just came back and I was still thinking about it because of that, I was torn because I didn't know whether he was going to divorce me or not. With what had happened to us for how many times now since he came back, what if I get pregnant and then he will tell me that he wanted to divorce me? I can't let that happen. I need to make sure that he is going to stay with me and never give that woman a chance to take him away from me. If I had to seduce him all the time, I am going to do it especially when he wants me. The way he calls me "my Celina" was very possessive and there's a part of me that likes it. Without thinking I called him "Jeffy", just where

Jefferson's POV It was two weeks after the incident with Xia and I still think that she was really something. How can she think that I am going to let Celina divorce me? Although she made me happy at one point when she told me that Celina didn't want me to leave three years ago. Maybe she was just too shy so she decided to leave our bedroom. I am such an id***, I should have talked to her before I left and everything would have been clearer. Thinking about what Celina did in the restaurant, I had to thank Xia for that as well. If she had not come that day, she wouldn't be able to do that and I wouldn't be able to know that side of her either. I have decided to make her mine and take care of her. It was just so sad that I had let the years pass without calling her. As for Xia, I will let her slide for now. But the next time she acts that way, I will see to it that I am going to make everything worse for her. In the meantime, I am going to make our marriage like our honeymoon stage. W
