Behind Her Innocence (Hughes Series)

Her Point of View

Gwen Hughes' POV

I am the youngest daughter of the billionaire couple, Garret and Allyna Hughes, who own chains of business establishments nationwide and around Asia.

Although I came from a very wealthy family, my standards were not that high, and my life was pretty ordinary. I was a plain human who was not perfect and made mistakes. In fact, a lot of mistakes which even ordinary, wise, and mature people wouldn't dare to do. I'm crazy, I know.

People looked up to me because of my personality, identity and achievements. I grew up admired by people because of my personality — nice and kind. It's all true. I got that compliment a lot. But being a Hughes was the main reason why they loved me so dearly. My family loved me so much for I was the youngest in our family with an angelic face and with an aura of innocence.

I loved and respected my family so much that I was so afraid that I could disappoint them. I even followed dad's footsteps. I became the next heiress of the company, next to my brother, Gray. At the age of 21, I managed different businesses of my family.

I was being called perfect because I was intelligent, kind, modest, wealthy and beautiful. They said, I had everything. But what I felt guilty of was when they attached my name to the word innocent.

If only my parents had an idea that I was so far from that. I had secrets that only me and him knew. Although I was known for being smart, I messed up a lot especially in my personal life. I made a lot of wrong decisions in my life. But of course, they didn't know that because I never showed them or said anything for them to know.

I got married spontaneously and secretly when I was only 18, and then got divorced when I was 21. Nobody knew except me and him.

In fact, I didn't want people to know that especially my parents because I was ready to forget everything that happened in the past. Also, I was so scared to tell my parents about the nightmares and careless decisions I made. I was ready to let go of things and planned to start something new.

But he came back. I met him again after I finished my masters degree. I was already in the verged of forgetting him and everything we had. Unfortunately, he came back and my life was in chaos again. Me and my old, careless, impulsive and crazy self came back. I always lose my sanity when he's around.

I was already near to moving on and forgetting everything that happened. I thought I could just forget the past. But why did he have to come back?

My dad would surely kill me if he found out everything. They would be so mad at me when they found out that I was not the kind of a daughter and a woman they thought I was. I was a huge disappointment to my family.
