ACEIA'S POVIt's Sunday. Family day. Members were gathered in Christenson House. Since me and Hudson got married, we always attend family parties because our parents want us to.My aunt Talia and uncle Paul also attended the party together with Crimson, their adopted daughter. Who was already married and has two children.I was surprised when I saw Clent at the family day. He rarely attended this kind of party, and I guess his parents forced him to since it was my request because I really missed him."Should we expect a child from you and Hudson, Aceia?" I looked at Crimson when I heard what she said. We are currently at the dining table, having lunch."Does it have a due date?" My cousin rolled her eyes at me. Crimson was sitting next to her child, and she was feeding him.My cousin's eldest son is five years old, a boy, and the youngest is one year old, a girl."Your cousin is right, Ace; should we expect?" My mom asks in a second emotion."Mom, you should tease Clent about that mat

ACEIA'S POVAfter what happened earlier, I went home. I expected that Hudson was at home, but he wasn't there. Night came, but he never came home. I was restless. I call Knoxx and ask if he knows where Hudson is. He said he was at The Bar with Wilson and Clark, so I immediately went to that bar."Can you all go away? I am so fucking tired of you following me." I was hostile towards the bodyguards who were always tailing me. I was even more frustrated with what they did."Sorry, ma'am, we're just following what Mr. Christenson orders." I blew air out of my mouth violently and entered the bar.I looked around the dark club as I walked until I saw Wilson and Clark. There were three women at their table. Wilson secured his arms around a woman's waist. While Clark is just having a formal conversation with a girl—oh wait! It's Celine. Claire Carpio's bff.Where's Hudson? I walk toward their table. I was about to get Wilson and Clark's attention when a woman in a champagne dress caught my at

ACEIA'S POVHudson and I haven't seen each other for FIVE DAYS. Sometimes he calls me, but not too often. I was currently in the living room talking to Kathrina, Hudson's cousin. I remember how I was jealous of her when I didn't know that she was Hudson's cousin. The man told her to visit me at my parents house. It is strange that she did not know that Hudson went to Spain."Why didn't that man tell me that he's in Spain? And why didn't he take you with him? I heard his mom wants you to go to Spain." When she and Hudson got married, I didn't see his mother again, only his father. Maybe his mom doesn't want to come to New York and chooses to stay in Spain.Hudson's father came back and forth to New York because he was busy expanding their business with the help of my family and Hudson. His dad wants to be hands-on with their company, even though he already handed it to Hudson."Maybe he goes back to Spain because his dad needs his help with their company there. That's why he didn't tak

ACEIA'S POVWe went to the room where Marthina and Phoenix stayed. Hudson opened the door after giving a warning knock. The woman sitting at the edge of the bed smiled at me when she saw me, and the boy shouted "Dad". It was weird that Marthina smiled at me because I know there's something wrong with her; it was not genuine. I could feel it.Phoenix was in the middle of the bed, playing with his robot. Hudson held my back as we entered the room. I simply moved my body to remove his hand. I'm still mad at him, especially while I was looking at Marthina.I can't forget that Hudson really left me in New York just to go to Spain to see his son and this woman. I know it's his responsibility to take care of his son, but I can't really stand looking at Marthina."Don't touch me!" I whimpered. I heard Hudson sigh."Marthina, this is my wife, Aceia.""Hi!" I greeted the woman without emotion, not letting Hudson finish what he was going to say. I walked towards the bed and looked at the boy. Th

HUDSON'S POV"What will happen now, Hudson?" Marthina said as we lay side by side on the lounge chair. I don't want our position right now, but Marthina insisted, and I don't have any choice but to agree."I don't know, but one thing is for sure: nothing's going to change. I will still stay with Aceia while I'm fulfilling my responsibility as a father to our child.""And do you think that will happen?" Marthina chuckled. "Do you think your wife is okay with this kind of setup? From what I observe, she doesn't like what is happening.""I don't have a choice but to do this.""You have, Hudson." Marthina cut me off. "You just have to leave her and be with me."He wants to shout at Marthina. I thought it was clear to her that I was doing this for the sake of our child. Then why is she trying to convince me to leave Aceia, which will not happen?"Stop it, Marthina; you knew that I would not do that."Marthina looked at me, and there was a disagreement on her face. "Why? Do you love her? I
