Sabrina's POV

I didn't know what to do. All I wanted was for him to stay with me, I was scared at the moment. Scared of everything, but Luca stood out and I felt I could trust him.

He leaned back to the bed, hugging me and I hugged back tightly. His huge body frame that wrapped me in it's embrace feeling like the only thing I needed at the moment.

I cried in his chest while he caressed my back. I needed to talk to someone but still, I couldn't bring myself to talk to Luca about it.

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   Lilith Gets Discharged

    Chapter 118Sabrina's POV. It's the day Lilith gets discharged. I finished up everything I needed to do within an hour, and called Lilith before I left the house. “Hey, sister-in-law,” she called. “I'll take that as good morning” I said with a rushed tone. “Anything you'd like me to bring to the hospital?” “Wait…. You are willing to change this dress?” “Of course” I responded casually. “Since the only princess of the McCorkindales is complaining, what choice do I have?” For a moment, she cooed, not expecting that. I rolled my eyes even though she couldn't see them. She wasn't coming from an overseas trip, but a goddamn fucking hospital ward. Yet, she wants to be dolled up so nicely like she was never sick. “Get me a designer dress, the brand doesn't matter” she said. “A bouquet of flower, and my favorite takeout meal” I was getting angry, or rather, frustrated. How can she ask for a designer cloth because she's getting discharged? A bouquet? Acceptable. And the takeout meal…

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   Motherly Love

    Lilith's POV. Lilith was the first to laugh. “What had suddenly gotten into you?” She asked. “Suddenly interested in gists?” I only smiled. They kept talking and I realized they were talking about hospitals. How painful injections could be, and how much it hurts to see their loved ones sick on the bed. The moment they mentioned that, my eyes moved to Luca. Mom noticed before I could stare at him for long. “He'll be fine, sweetheart” “Of course” he'll be fine. Two hours later, it was already late. I wanted to escort Mom, at least until she got a cab, but when she told me she was going to head home with me, I blinked. “I'll be staying here overnight. You can head home, I promise to pay you a visit by weekend” The look on Mom's face told me she was going to decline, but before she could even talk, Lilith spoke. “You don't need to stay, you've barely slept for three days, I'll take care of him tonight” No. Not allowing that. “I’ll—” Mom's voice cut mine off before my words co

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   Digging Info

    Sabrina's POV. “Change into this. It's the best cloth I think would suit you from all of the dresses I have” I laid the dress bare in front of Lilith who stared at it with an expressionless face. I folded her clothes neatly and tucked it into the bag I had brought. “This looks old fashioned” she bickered. I paused and for a moment, rolled my eyes. “You heard me, Lilith. I found you the best I could find” “You could have gotten a new dress. Or bring me one of your gala dresses” she said. Was she being serious right now? Yes, and she was being ungrateful. Two days had passed. Lilith had gotten much better, and according to the doctor and her health chart, she could get discharged tomorrow. I brought her my gown, since there was none of her clothes at my place and the McCorkindale’s mansion was too far to reach. I mean, why go through the hassle when she could just fit into my dresses to make it through the lobby of the hospital into the car that would drop her right into her gr

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   Trust

    Author's POV. "I enjoyed the show you put up, Haynes. However, I'd rate it 40 over 100" Haynes didn't need to check the voice again to know who was speaking on the line, he knew it was undoubtedly Camilla. He was still angry to know that Luca had survived, and Sabrina had played him by taking the bitch along too. He should have just killed the both of them right there, that was the mistake he made. Haynes grabbed his name plate, tightening his grip around it as it looked like he was going to crush the poor thing if he had the strength. "You don't want me to take out my anger on you, do you?" Haynes' voice was dark, his jaws gritted. Camilla laughed. She swirled the chair around as she held the phone to her ears, staying silent for a moment. For a split second, she wondered why Haynes didn't hang up immediately, but she knew he'd do exactly that if she decided to ask. "You failed woefully," Camilla continued. "I mean....." Her words were expressed with disgust. "Who tried to

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   He'll Survive

    Chapter 114Sabrina’s POVMom walked me out when I was ready to leave. Getting into a cab, I returned to the hospital. The hospital still reeks of medications and blood. The air held the stench of sweat from different bodies, but I walked through them all. I headed to the VIP ward where my family were admitted; Lilith and Luca.Sam was standing outside, his eyes not blinking from the spot where he had his gaze fixed on. But even with that, I could tell he could see me approach. His eyes were alert, as well as his instincts. “Welcome, ma’am” he greeted, his gaze flicking to me for a second. I nodded my head, forcing a small smile to my lips. I didn't give a response, but I was sure the smile delivered the message. I walked into the ward, and my gaze landed on Lilith first. Her body just moved. Not just her body, she was sitting up on the bed all by herself with a groan. My eyes widened a bit in surprise. “Lilith!” I called softly and rushed over to her. “Are you fine? Is it hur

  • BACK WITH MY EX: He Promised To Be Better   Tales About My Dad

    Sabrina's POV“Mom, how are you doing?” My voice was low, but I tried not to show the tiredness in my tone. “I heard about what happened to your husband. I'm so sorry” she said. News travels far. Of course, it would be when a lot of people had been made to watch him helpless on the main road before Sam got him out of that road. “He’ll be fine Mom, don't get worried” I assured. I know my Mom, she might freak out once she gets to know he wouldn't be waking up anytime soon. Mom and I talked about some other things, like her wanting to bring me dinner in the hospital. She had been discharged, has an apartment she's living in now, and she's totally fine like the doctor had said. A few minutes later, we were going to hang up. That moment, I recalled something. My father. I needed to clear everything up. Haynes, the thought about my dad, the need to find him, every damn crisis that needs to be taken care of, everything….“Mom, can I visit today? I want to hear about Dad if you are r
