CHAPTER 50 – Lucas’ POV I was incredibly worried. It had been two long days since we last spoke. We were both stubborn, but in the end, it was me who was hurting the most. Do you want to know why? All I wanted was for her to stop working. She carried the heavy burden of being my wife and a mother to our child. I wanted her to enjoy her life, to have the freedom to pursue her own happiness. I had my own work, my own business, and more than enough money to provide for us. I could take care of her, and that's all that mattered to me. That's why I initially asked her to give up her business. But she didn't take it well; she was offended, even though that wasn't my intention. The truth was, she didn't want to give it up. I tried talking to her, but she didn't respond. I became sulky too, and I stopped coaxing her. I knew I was in the wrong, but I thought she would understand what I wanted. All I wanted was the best for her. She was my wife, and I didn't want to burden her with somethin

CHAPTER 52 – Zara’s POV Preparing for my wedding was no easy task. It took five months. Five months to plan and arrange everything. I had always dreamed of a simple wedding. I was not one for extravagance. My only wish was to marry the one I truly loved in a church, making our vows before the Creator. That was all I wanted, nothing more. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise that this was our second attempt at a relationship. I had once thought it was a lost cause. I believed everything was over, and I needed to let go and move on. But life is full of surprises, and it seemed my luck had returned. Like magic, our relationship had mended. I hadn't expected it at all, especially after I had given up the fight. The Blackwoods welcomed us back into their lives. My mother and grandfather were delighted with the direction my relationship and life were taking. It felt as if the thorn in my side was gradually fading away. It seemed surreal that I was getting married the next day. Lucas ha

CHAPTER 54 – Lucas’ POV The darkness returned, swallowing my sanity. I kept asking myself, “Why? What did I do wrong? Why would she hurt me like this? It's all so messed up!” When Zara didn't show up at our wedding, the pain was unbearable. I thought she loved me and everything was fine, but she chose to leave me, our son, and our life behind. Does she want to teach me a lesson? Is this payback for something I did in the past? If so, she succeeded in destroying me. I searched tirelessly for her, refusing to give up easily. But she remained hidden. There must be a reason why she disappeared. Maybe someone took her. Then, I got a letter. Antoinette, my ex-wife's best friend, confirmed that it was written by Zara. Its contents drove me almost crazy. Dear Lucas, Now you know how it feels, right? Don't waste your time trying to find me. You won't see me again. Well, you fell into my trap. Are you feeling sick? You deserve it. After all the time we spent together, you never saw my val

CHAPTER 56 – Nick’s POV When you're too in love, you can blur the line between right and wrong. I'm blinded by my feelings, and the thought of not having her drives me insane. I can't accept that after waiting for so long, I'm being ignored while she falls for another man. I was the one who stood by her when she was hurt by Lucas. I've been there as her companion, support, and tool. I waited because I knew Zara's ultimate destination was meant to be with me. I feel like I'm losing my mind, going crazy. The jealousy is consuming me, and I can't accept not being her last choice. It's been a long time since I've loved someone from afar, just waiting for the right moment to make my move and make her mine. I'll keep a close eye on her, and the moment I see someone else trying to take what should be mine, I won't hesitate to act. I've worked too hard, faced too many challenges, and invested too much of myself to let her slip away. I will make sure that I am her endgame. Zara has been ki

CHAPTER 58 – Lucas’ POV When Giselle and I had a conversation, it felt like a weight had been lifted off me. She decided to stop pushing herself onto me and focus on finding her true self. I believed that true deep love can only be experienced when you love yourself first. Both Giselle and I felt empty, like boxes without contents. We realized that we weren't meant for each other, and I was glad that she chose to end her madness. I knew that someone else deserved her love more than I did. Although I may not forgive her for her mistakes right away, I was relieved that she was repenting for them. I understood that it was difficult for her too, and I hoped she would learn her lesson. Just like me, I had learned one of the happiest lessons in my life - accepting the situation and appreciating what I had before it was taken away. I wished I had cherished Zara more so she wouldn't have left me. I still held onto the hope that we would meet again. I had a feeling and intuition that our pa
