Chapter: Chapter 17GEORGE When I got home after I had delivered Eloise to their home, I was surprised by a car parked outside our house. For a long time, I had no idea what was going on in our home. I was often with Eloise or elsewhere to accomplish our mission. When I entered our gate, a woman immediately came out and greeted me. Her face was familiar, but I couldn’t remember who she was. But my mother secretly smile watching her approach me. "George, I miss you!" She shouted, running towards me. I just stopped and let her get closer to me, so I could see her and get to know her better. I think back at work and friends, but I do not remember a woman with fair skin and blonde hair. She gave me a hug while I just stood there and was still stunned by the absence. My mother also approached as if she were glad to see us. Then, the lady slowly let go of hugging and just smiled, staring at me. "Mom, who is she?" I asked. "Come on son, did you forget Chloe McDaniel, she was your childhood

Chapter: Chapter 16ELOISE There was a deafening silence in the living room as George and I went downstairs. My grip on George's hand tightened toward the sofa. Again, my feet get heavier, but I need to conquer my fear. Aunty Gillie also often glanced at me as we sat in front of them. Her gaze was sharp, even though she said nothing about me. "I'm sorry for what happened earlier!" That’s also what I frequently open my mouth to anyone. I just felt the warmth on my face. I let out a weak breath as I waited for them to speak. “Okay, direct to the point. We all know that you face a trial in life. At first, I was understood of your situation, but lately, everything has become the worst, and we feel the alienation of our son. You can't blame us because we are his parents. Now, what is your plan? ” “Aunty, I’m sorry to all of you, but I promise to return to normal when I have finished my mission. Let me lend George for the time being, and I will voluntarily return him in front of you.” “What if

Chapter: Chapter 15THE past is past, and now they are facing the new day and new plan. Even though George's mother was angry with his preoccupations, he still chose to bring his girlfriend to their home to ask for her blessing before they even sailed to Manila. George knew that it might show Eloise the disgust that his mother had shown him before. He just wanted to kindly let Eloise know the truth, even if his mother didn't like it. The important is that they have a stronger unity despite the cruel fate. They need to survive, they need to fight to achieve freedom to live in peace. "Are you ready?" George asked. “Yeah, but a bit nervous as might happen to us. Also, I’m shy to face your mother. ”She was hesitant, but she had to end their family's suffering. She is even more shame now that she can face George's mother. Likewise, she knew that they had greatly persecuted George's family especially, and the young man focused his attention on them. “Don't think about that. Whatever she says, just d

Chapter: Chapter 14Elena and George rushed to the room to see what happen to Eloise. They both worried by the sound of the voice of Eloise when she shouted. Their eyes widened when they enter the room, where Eloise and their mother were. They noticed a blood dropping from the nose of Ana. Mostly blood is a thick red color liquid that comes from our body, but they wondered why Ana’s blood is different. It showed thick black color and stinky like an iron rust.“Help me, George,” I pleaded, tears running down my cheeks. My hands shaking nonstop and my heart pounding inside my rib cage. I worried about the condition of my mother, just we got home from the hospital and here again adding to my endless issues in my life.George enclosed me in an iron embrace, locking me in the warmth of his body, giving me assurance to calm myself.“Sssshhh…” He said gently while caressing my back. I continue crying against his chest. I couldn’t imagine that ano

Chapter: Chapter 13Occasionally we have unexpected things coming. The planned ones are going awry. No one knows what will happen in the future. That is why it is difficult to hope for something that is not yet certain.Instead of starting what had to be done, Eloise temporarily postponed it when Elena rushed to the hospital. Eloise didn't want to agree because they didn't have the money to pay for her sister's treatment.Elena rushed to a nearby hospital to check on her sister's condition. Eloise worried because this had happened to her sister twice."Elena!" she whispered.Elena was still asleep after the doctor examined her. Eloise's hand trembled as she caressed her sister's cheek. Eloise wonders why the younger sister's condition is so frequent."Doctor, what's wrong with my sister?"After examining everything, Eloise could not he

Chapter: Chapter 12A lot was playing on Eloise’s mind about her dream. After, Elena woke her up in a nightmare, she almost didn't want to close her eyes again. She is afraid to fall asleep, thinking she will back into a dream in a horrible situation.Elena quietly went back to sleep. The dream only brings Eloise to the event that may have something to do with what she wants to know. As she watched her sister fast asleep, she heard a crack from outside.Even though fear lingered on her, she forced herself to be brave. Eloise got up and listened to carefully because it might have been just George who woke up. She hears footsteps again, but she wonders where it came from.As she listens, the sound she hears also goes away. She dared to peek and slowly opened the door just enough for her head to peek.Inside their small living room, she could see a shadow shaded by light from the moon. Coincid

Chapter: Chapter 26The night was quiet and cold outside, yet the chill I felt came more from within. I stood there, heart racing with nervousness, but I knew I had to face Crissy. Though I was innocent in this matter, I understood that sometimes one must show humility for the sake of resolution and self-preservation.After completing our assigned tasks for the evening, I made my way to Crissy’s room. I had decided that this was the moment to speak with her directly about the ongoing issues between us. It was the only way to understand how we could move forward and restore harmony. If I needed to kneel and apologize to clear the air, I was prepared to do so. My peace of mind mattered more than my pride.I could no longer endure this tension. It was beginning to affect my studies and mental well-being, and I refused to let it continue. I chose not to share this decision with Joy.She was already overwhelmed with her own responsibilities, and I knew I could not rely on her for every difficulty. This was s

Chapter: Chapter 25I took a slow, steadying breath as I stood before the grand wrought-iron gates of the mansion. The morning sun glinted off the polished marble facade, but its warmth did little to ease the tension coiled in my chest.Don Benedict and Lucia — Crissy’s parents — were waiting inside. There was nothing I could do if they chose to believe their daughter over me. That was their right as her family. Yet all I wanted, more than anything, was the chance to prove my innocence. The truth deserved a thorough, impartial investigation, not whispered accusations in the dark.A member of the household staff greeted me at the entrance with a polite but reserved nod and ushered me directly through the echoing marble halls toward Don Benedict’s private office. My footsteps sounded louder than usual against the polished floors.I paused outside the heavy oak door, heart steady but resolute. Raising my hand, I knocked firmly twice.“Come in,” came Sir Benedict’s deep, measured voice from within.I turned

Chapter: Chapter 24I tried to steady my breathing, forcing calm into my trembling limbs despite the sharp edge of nervousness coiling tight in my chest. After everything that had unfolded between Miguel and me—the heated words, the shattered trust—I had braced myself for a thorough confrontation from her. Not this.“Ma’am… my arm!” I begged, my voice barely above a whisper, strained and fragile.Her fingers dug deeper into my forearm like iron bands, unyielding. I hadn’t even registered the broken glasses scattered across the floor until that moment—jagged shards glinting under the harsh overhead lights, ready to slice into skin with the slightest misstep. One wrong movement from either of us, and blood would surely follow.“You are truly an angel in everyone else’s eyes,” she hissed, her voice low and venomous, laced with barely contained fury. “And I… I am the devil. But from this moment forward, I will twist your fate until it breaks.”“No—that’s not true, ma’am!” I shook my head frantically, denial

Chapter: Chapter 23The aroma of sizzling garlic butter and seared herbs filled the kitchen as I stood at the counter, knife in hand, meticulously seasoning the thick-cut rib eyes. I had been waiting for Joy to appear, the anticipation building with every passing minute. The table was already set for the whole household—candles flickering softly, wine glasses gleaming under the warm pendant lights. Tonight wasn’t just dinner; it was a small celebration I had quietly orchestrated.The door swung open without warning. I startled, nearly dropping the pepper mill.Joy stepped in, her eyes widening at the sight of the spread before her. She paused in the doorway, taking in the marinated steaks, the fresh asparagus glistening with olive oil, and the golden potato wedges roasting in the oven. A slow smile curved her lips.“You did all this?” she asked, voice laced with pleasant surprise.“Yeah,” I replied, wiping my hands on a kitchen towel. “I begged Mrs. Amalia to let me take over the kitchen tonight.

Chapter: Chapter 22We arrived at the private resort as the late afternoon sun bathed everything in a golden glow. For someone like me—accustomed to modest routines and the occasional corporate getaway—this place felt like stepping into another world. I had never imagined I would experience such quiet luxury, yet the moment we stepped through the entrance, a wave of excitement coursed through me. Adventure had never been my constant companion, but today it welcomed me with open arms.The resort was breathtakingly beautiful, a hidden paradise I once believed existed only in dreams. Palm-fringed pathways wound between elegant villas, and the air carried the faint, soothing scent of sea salt and blooming jasmine. Being here with him—Nathan—made it feel almost unreal. He had a way of making me feel free, unburdened, as if happiness itself had been given permission to bloom inside my chest. For the first time in a long while, I allowed myself to simply be happy.We strolled along a charming cobblestone path l

Chapter: Chapter 21Just as my fingers curled around the passenger door handle of Miguel’s silver sedan, a sharp horn blared from directly ahead, slicing through the quiet morning air. I froze, heart jolting, and whipped my head toward the sound. My father’s familiar black SUV had pulled up smoothly in front of us, blocking the path. The doors opened almost in unison, and out stepped Joy from the back, followed immediately by Nathan, his posture tall and commanding.For a split second, I stood dumbfounded, heat rushing to my face. Of all the people who could appear right now… They would see exactly what I was doing—slipping into Miguel’s car at dawn, far from the school gates. The questions, the assumptions, the explanations I would have to give later already weighed on me like lead.“Get in our car. Now,” Nathan ordered, his voice firm yet controlled, leaving no room for argument.“But—” I started, glancing desperately between him and Miguel.“No buts.” Nathan closed the distance in two strides.
