Chapter 29
3rd POV
Watching her was the most beautiful thing that ever happen to him. She was the reason he was alive, and she was his hope when he was about to give up… in his mind she’s the queen and in his world he’s the king.
“She will be mine. With out beautiful house and our kids.” he say that often upon building their dream world… but that admiration turn into something unacceptable… in her world he’s the villain that’s stopping her from doing what she loves and the freedom she always wanted… in her world… he’s the stalker that everyone despise.
But because he’s in his imaginary world he doesn’t see that… instead he’s thinking that they love him so much for her that they
Chapter30Ana’s POVI close my eyes tight when I hugged Luke tightly. “Is there something wrong?” He asked while kissing me in my forehead and I just shake my head and continue to hug him.“You remember the time when we had our tattoo? I was so scared especially that my skin was expose and that my parents would be angry when they find out about this.”“Hmm, of course I do. I hold your hand tight because it was shaking so much.”“Did you ever think that we made the wrong choice? It was so abrupt and we didn’t plan it.”“No. I love the tattoo that we have right now. It made me love you more… because despite being scared you still did it with me, and don&rs
Chapter31Part 1 My throat feels fry the moment I open my eyes, but soon close my eyes again as I hate this familiar feeling, I think this is the third time I woke up in a hospital bed and I hate that the ceiling is so familiar, the smell too and it reminds me of that bad memories I’ve get pass through in this room. Everything is familiar, even the feeling is familiar but this time I’m not the one who’s badly hurt.I try to sit down on my bed but my head is still spinning and when I saw a cup of water in the bedside table I immediately grab it with the energy that I have and drink it.The door open soon after of calming myself down as I don’t have the strength to stand up. I want to know how is Pearl and where is she… I need news.“Ana.”
Chapter31Part 2 “Can you take care of Pearl?” I feel guilty leaving her here and I want someone to check on her every chance they get, she has a private nurse that is of course paid to stay silent about this matter but family is different and that leaves me to calling Evan.“Why is she ill?”“She’s in a coma… I text you the address.” He stayed silent absorbing the information I just drop and put the phone down giving him a moment.I feel like I’m floating. Day by day I’m just getting by as I pretend that I’m okay. Seeing my sister lying in that hospital bed in my place made me hate myself and question how bad I really am for someone to want to kill me. She just wanted to get back to her life and experience love from her husband tha
Chapter32I bit my lips as I hold my hand tightly together. I have no reason to be nervous but upon noticing other people passing by and the sound of the speaker speaking it made me more tense because any minute now I’ll get to see the person that I call home… Luke.I look around feeling paranoid that someone might be following me but I have my trust on the bodyguards that Kate hired. They’re not on my side but disguise as civilians, I don’t know where they are but I’m sure they’re somewhere. I’ve already instructed them not to come when Luke is around, I don’t want questions from him and once again more lies.How funny that I’ve been lying to him for a year and four months now and the lies as been build up high that I think it now reaches the moon. I want to tell him now that Pearl w
Chapter33Part 1 I look at myself in the mirror. I have my earpiece on for emergency purposes and I hide it using my hair. I feel nervous especially upon hearing the clock ticking. The room is silent as the make up artist already left.Today is the day… the day of the event and the day to give the suspect a chance to show up. It’s nerve racking but I want the end of this… I hate the police and I want to give them want they want so they could leave me alone… my investigator is already here somewhere… and we both think that the person trying to kill me is that suspect the police is saying. I know it in my gut and I want to confirm it today… because once I know who that person is, it’s not going to be beautiful from now on, not after compromising the life of my sister. I don’t c
Chapter33Part 23rdPOV“We failed.” Dave said. He almost got caught by the police but luckily he made a great idea, he stop running acting like he didn’t do anything wrong. He stopped and he got interrogated by the police and he answer all their question with confidence that they let him go, partly because they received a news… he doesn’t know what it was but it saved his life and good thing the police didn’t recognize him, it took a couple of surgery to change his face and he can say that it was a success after seeing their faces.“Why didn’t you know about the police!?” She scream at the top of her lungs and throw the things that she could get her hands on.“We didn’t know that she’s well a
Chapter34 Part 1“Is this really necessary?” I look at Kate feeling uneasy. “This is risky, what if Luke visit here today?”Kate shook her head. “Ezra said they will be all busy to an event so you don’t have to worry. You just need to do this. They won’t sign it unless you come to them.”I sigh and continue doing my make up. “I said I wanted a break… and I won’t make public appearance when I’m ready.”“You won’t, this will be a private matter between that brand… it’s one of your major brand and I assume you want to continue working with them.”She has a point, I don’t just want to give up modeling just like this. I need to be prepared for all the possibiliti
Chapter34 Part 2Here we go again. It’s like deja vu. I laugh at myself upon going down to the car and smiling to the camera but this time I’m not going inside on my own because by the entrance someone is waiting for me.“Love.” Luke kissed me in the lips and we both smile at each other as we go inside the hall. The guest greet me and unlike earlier I actually have to force myself to interact with them. Being two person at an event is hard. My personalty and behavior crash with Pearl but for a year I have been good at this, but one thing I’m not good at is separating myself from the thought that this is not my real like and Luke isn’t my husband and he’s not in love with me but my sister.“I’m sorry I’m late. You know I’ve been busy with the resort
Chapter 105I don’t know what’s the difference. They say married life is really different and you can’t go out anymore because you have to be cautious because you have now a partner to think about and if you have kids you’ll have to make sure that they’re well taken care of before you go for a night out but actually I don’t see a difference… maybe because I’ve always experience those and Luke and I already know each other because we experience living together… maybe the only difference is that we have the papers to prove that we’re married and nothing can tear us apart now because of that paper and if someone tries to I’m just going to tear that person apart.“When will we get tired of each other?” I chuckle as I asked that question to Luke. We got home from our honeymoon a week ago but
Chapter 104Luke’s POVIt’s killing me that three months has passed and I haven’t yet proposed to Ana. I’ve been waiting for that time to come and I want to be married at her and prove her how much I love her. I know I’ve been saying those words to her everyday but there’s something about being married that makes it different because after all that’s where we started and I wanted to make it come true.“You sure about this?”“What do you mean by that? Of course I’m sure. I fucking love her and nothing is going to change my mind.”James laugh at my response and pat me at the back. “You’re so hot headed. I’m just making sure that you’re not backing out especially that Ana can be hard to handle.” I gave him a glre. Why does he ca
Chapter 103“You sure about this? We can back out if you want. There’s no need for this actually. People can be so mean and we shouldn’t care about what they think of us… because what’s important is that we’re happy together.”I’m pacing as I said those words to Luke. We’re already at the back stage of the interview that we’re having right now and I’m actually the one who’s nervous because Luke seems to be calm and just looking at me with a smile on his face.“this isn’t funny, Luke.”He chuckle and stood up from his seat and made me sit on the couch. “Calm down. Yes we don’t need people’s validation but you said we need to do this for our kids to be safe and not be bullied… so let’s just go through this
Chapter 102I can’t help but smile upon looking at Luke having fun with the kids. We’re at the playground after we fetch them from school… the same playground they were kidnapped, near our house. It still hurt thinking about those happenings but slowly we’re building memories here to buried those bad memories.“Mommy, can’t we stay a little longer?” Sapphire asked me and I raised my brows at Luke and he shrugged his shoulders.I smile at Sapphire and shake my head. “I’m sorry, baby. Let’s come back here another time, we have to eat our dinner and it’s getting dark.”Both pouted with my response and ran to Luke for help but Luke carried them and whispered something to them as we walk our way to the car and we arrive home not even long after.“Mom!&rdqu
Chapter 101 Part 2Luke’s POVHow did we ran into each other? Why does she has to see me in this state? I feel ashamed and I want to hide and seeing her face made me have the urge to go to her and hug her tight and not think of the consequence later on but I just can’t help but ran away because I’m a coward.I knew that when I left, I knew that I don’t want to see her as she will remind me of pain… and at the same time I will remind her for the pain that my mother had caused her and I don’t want to hurt her anymore… I already done enough but when I ran away from him I can’t help but look back and when she was crying on the streets I suddenly want to come back to her but I stopped myself before I could do so... because I’m still not ready.How funny bec
Chapter 101 Part 1Eating, laughing and bonding. That’s what we’re doing right now after winning the trial but I know I definitely saw him and he was looking at us and I didn’t see his reaction because of the people but I know it’s Luke… don’t know why I’m acting like this but maybe because I miss him… six months and he showed up, is he happy for me? When will he return? Is he going to come back though?A lot of thought came to my mind but I snap back from reality when I notice the twins hugs me from my legs. I smiled to both of them before squatting down.“Are you guys happy?” I whispered and both nodded as they kiss both of my cheeks.I bite my lips as I feel their embrace. Looking at them and hugging them reminds me of him… that always happen and today I’ll more emotional
Chapter 100“I’m sorry. I was so stuborn yesterday. I didn’t realize that someone might be nosy enough to take a picture of us.”“It’s already done, there’s nothing we can do about it.”He’s driving us home as our picnic has just finished and I was a little shock that he knows about the article, I’m thinking he was silent about it as he doesn’t want to ruin the picnic and the same goes for me.The kids are playing with their toys at the back seat and singing nursery rhymes while we’re talking seriously at the front seat.“But still… as you said, it might affect the trial.” He looks guilty and I can’t help but raise a brow at him.“I thought you don’t care about the trial anymore? You said that it does
Chapter 99 Part 2“Ana is officially back!”They cheered that made me laugh. We’re at the bar after the success of our photo shoot. I got to meet my former model friends in the shoot as it was a big project and now after a week of work we’ve finally wrapped up and as a celebration we went here to party and I kind of admit that I miss partying. I mean I could still party if I want to but things have change and I had other priority like the kids, and actually I am kind of wondering how they are doing but Yen and mom are home taking care of them so I feel at ease… especially that there will be no threat that Chloe is in prison.“Stop it.” We’re all laughing as we’re having our drinks and at first I thought we were tired but I guess we still have the energy as we’re dancing at the dance floor feeling the vibe of t
Chapter 99 Part 1“You were so brave.” Mom hugged me tightly and kiss my forehead, she’s teary-eyed while I try myself not to get emotional as we hugged each other. “Don’t worry too much, the end is near. I can feel it.” Mom whisper after breaking our hug and I just smile at her in response.“We’re getting good feedback after the press conference and they are really believing us because of the evidence that you hand out to the reporters.”After arriving home I was shock that they prepared something everyone is here. Mom, Yen, Dad, Evan, Ann, Pearl, James, and of course Kate. Everyone is here… yet something feels so empty… someone is missing in my heart and I may be facing a victory right now but it doesn’t feel like it especially that he’s not here to celebrate with us… because I thin
