Lonely Bride

SARAH POV

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn’t realize I was still standing on the porch.

“Mam.” I looked at the side from which I got the voice and saw that Nora was looking at me with some concern.

“Are you alright?” He asked again.

I again looked around and looked back at him and nodded in agreement, and then I felt a little wetness in my eyes, but ignoring his look, I started walking inside the house.

Cleaning my tears, I again walk on a known path, and with time, I can see nothing has changed here.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Things are as they are. Same beautiful, neat, and clean.

I saw a few houses; help was doing their work and bowed to me, noticing my presence, and I replied the same politely with a small smile.

I looked around to catch a glimpse of Sean, but I did not find him at all.

‘What should I do? Should I go to his room? As it was clear in the contract, I have to stay with him, or should I look for Bella’s room first?

‘But again, where is her room?’ I was again lost in my thoughts but came out when a maid said, “Mama Master has asked for your presence in the baby Bella’s room.

It’s next to the Master’s room.” She said it politely, and I nodded in agreement.

I did not show her, but I was surprised at how everyone already knew about Bella.

I padded towards Sean’s room and went inside the open door of the next room, where I saw Bella already on the bed and sleeping peacefully.

I notice the room has already been decorated beautifully, according to Bella’s liking. It was Sofia all over the place, and the room was colored pink and purple.

I smile, thinking about how she will react when she gets up.

But again, how has he done everything so fast? Did he plan this long ago?

“Let me know once you come out of your Lala land.

“I looked at my side and saw him sitting on the couch while tapping something on his phone, and I let my cheeks heat with embarrassment.

I turned my body towards him after composing myself but avoided looking at him, so I looked everywhere for him.

“I have some work at the office. You ask Bella what she would like to have for dinner and make it for her.

I will have dinner at home, so make something light for me.

Moreover, don’t do anything that makes me punish you. Follow all the rules.

” He got up without glancing at me and left the room, and I looked at his retiring back, all shocked.

‘What does he think? I will let my daughter starve. And how come he is ordering around me for his food when he has tons of servants around? Bloody bastard. I won’t make anything for him. I gritted my teeth, thinking of him.

‘I am not the same old Sarah for his kind information, and this time I will show him the same.’ I thought with determination.

I looked around but did not find our stuff, so I walked out to check or ask for some help for the same.

I noticed one maid was cleaning around, so I walked towards her and asked politely about my luggage.

Mam, your luggage is in the master’s room as per the master’s instruction.” She replied politely.

I wonder why they aren’t surprised by my staying with their master.

There could be two reasons: first, they know who I am, or second, they are used to getting a new girl every second day in their master’s room.

The thought of the girl sharing the bed with him where I was going to sleep made me cringe.

Nodding with a small smile, I walk towards a room not unknown to me and enter.

I looked around and found the room as it was, so I left.

I noticed everything, but what broke my heart was a photo frame.

The frame in which I and Sean were standing on the yacht, smiling and looking at the sunrise, wasn’t there.

I remember leaving the picture right beside the bed, and now it’s not there.

How easily he forgot our beautiful moments.

Why can’t I do the same? Why am I still stuck in the past?

My lips wobbled, my vision got blurry, and finally, a few droplets left my eyes, taking their way down the floor.

Crying over the past won’t help me anymore, so after collecting my shrill emotions, I look for my luggage, which was visible at the corner.

Without wasting a minute, I walk out of the room with my stuff and walk inside Bella’s room.

I walked inside the closet and saw tons of dresses already hanging for Bella.

Not only dresses, but everything she needed was there.

Bella will be extremely happy to see those.

It is not like I could not afford those, but I always wanted to raise her like any normal child.

I did not want to give her unnecessary luxury because I knew it was not worth it.

I thought to do the unpacking later, so I just took out our nightdress and closed the bag.

Bella was up by then. I came out of the walking closet and rubbed her pretty eyes.

“Hey, my baby belle.” I cooed and walked to her.

“Mommy.” She jumped on me and stuck to my body like a koala, and I giggled.

“Where are we, mommy?” Finally, she asked if I wanted to avoid as much as I could.

Her eyes lit up in excitement as she looked at the beautiful room.

“Is it my room?” She asked, looking here and there with twinkly eyes.

“Ahem, we are New You, darling, and yes, it is your new room,” I replied, cut short.

“Why are we here?” She asks one more question, and I know one after another will come, so I have to shut her up fast.
