A Husband For The Wild Heiress Chapter 73: Just The Two Of Us 2
Naalimpungatan si Tala dahil sa malakas na boses na nag-uusap mula sa kung saan. She opened her eyes and the modern of ceiling of Knoxx’s penthouse greeted her. Agad siyang bumaling skay Knoxx na katabi niya sa kama subalit wala ito roon. Napilitan na siyang bumangon. She looked at the clock at the bedside table. It read two thirty in the morning. They just arrived at the penthouse four hours ago and yet her husband is nowhere in sight again. She quickly got out of bed, put on her robe and got out of the room. Madilim sa salas subalit may ilaw siyang nakita sa private office ni Knoxx. With silent steps, she walked over at the door which was luckily slightly ajar. She was still a few steps away from the room but she can already hear the voices speaking aloud. “And why would I do that? I don’t want to play games anymore, Ares!” It was Knoxx who was apparently speaking with his older brother Ares. Saglit siyang nagtaka. Anong kailangang sabihin ni Ares kay Knoxx na hindi na nito mahi

“Seriously? A big bike?” ani Tala kay Knoxx nang makita niyang ang luxury big bike nito ang gagamitin nila sa pagpunta sa kung saan mang lugar siya nito balak dalhin.Ngumisi si Knoxx, pinabukol ang dila sa pisngi nito. “Why, I thought you liked having fun, mi bella.”Umirap siya, humalukipkip. “Dati ‘yon.”Nagsalubong ang mga kilay nito. “What difference does it make now?’She scoffed. “Anong what difference does it make now? I have a son. No, erase that. We have a son. Fun is nice but seeing Atlas grow and have a family of his own is way nicer. Meaning, I won’t take my chances on your bike. I’m way past the age of having fun, Knoxx. Besides, I’m wearing a friggin’ dress. Now be a good husband, go get your car and make your wife comfortable,” utos niya sa lalaki.Knoxx chuckled, amusement in his eyes. Agad itong bumaba sa big bike nito, tinanggal ang helmet bago humakbang palapit sa kanya. As usual, his simple move took her breath away. Knoxx could probably be doing the simplest of

“Don’t move!” Tala yelled as she looked at Knoxx intently, memorizing his features before drawing him on the piece of paper she saw on the bedside table. Knoxx was seating by the window of the cottage-by-the-beach they were staying at for the night, a very unwilling subject for her art.Matapos nilang umalis sa Iossif Hill, they stopped by a local restaurant which served traditional Maritrian food, which is basically mostly Italian cuisine with a twist, before going there. Knoxx said he rented the whole resort just to accommodate the two of them tonight. And she cannot complain, she likes to be with him. Just him.They freely swam on the cool sea water with the setting sun in perfect view. It has been ages since she did that. Noong mga bata pa sila ng mga pinsan at kapatid niya, madalas sila sa San Gabriel, sa resthouse ng Tita Sam at Uncle Aaron niya. She had one of the best memories with the setting sun as witness. And she’s glad that she did share another sunset memory with Knoxx.

“Thank you, Adela,” ani Tala sa maid matapos nitong isilbi sa harap niya ang teacup na may lamang tsaa.Bumalik siya sa private quarters nila ni Knoxx, the one her small family had been staying at after she was abducted. Doon siya iniwan ni Ander. Ang sabi nito, babalik din daw ito agad. Nagbilin pa ito na ‘wag aalis sa quarters nila hangga’t hindi dumarating si Knoxx. Mabuti na lang dumating si Adela bago tuluyang umalis si Ander. She wouldn’t have to bore herself alone while waiting for Knoxx to return.Maingat niyang dinala sa bibig ang teacup at sumimsim ng tsaa. Adela served her jasmine tea, one of her favorites. Hindi pa siya nag-aagahan but the tea is enough for now.“Would you want me to get some freshly bakes pastries from the kitchen, Ms. Tala?” ani Adela maya-maya.Nagsalubong ang kilay niya. “The kitchen is baking even at this hour?”Kumurap si Adela, bumukas ang pag-aalinlangan sa mukha. “N-no... I mean, y-yes, Ms. Tala.”Natigilan siya. Freshly baked pastries are usuall

Tala greedily filled her chest with air as she looked at herself in front of the mirror. She was wearing a beautiful moss green dress she made for herself especially for that occasion—Princess Olivia’s wedding. Finally, after weeks of endless working and sleepless nights, natapos din niya ang wedding gown ni Princess Olivia. Nakatulong ng malaki ang paglipat nila ni Atlas sa Walbrick House upang matapos niya sa tamang oras ang gown. Gigising siya nang maaga sa umaga at paglalamayan ang gown ng prinsesa hanggang sa gabi. Literal na pagkain lang ang kanyang pahinga. But she doesn’t have any complaints. In fact, she prefers that she's busy from sunrise to even after when the sun sets. She’d only hit the sack when her body would feel like dropping from exhaustion. That way, she will not have time to be alone with her thoughts. She took in a sharp breath. Hesitation was still clearly evident in her eyes. She was still contemplating if she’d go to the wedding or not. Para kasing hindi

Knoxx slowly walked over at them and Tala made sure she’d look at him with a straight face. She wanted to show him that she’s unfazed by his arrogance and indecent presumptions. She wanted him to know that for the past two weeks, there were no trace of struggles on her part as she recovers from the heartache he caused. She could do that. She’s a pro in pretending, wasn’t she? However, as soon as he had a whiff of is familiar scent tinged with alcohol, her mind wandered. Why does he smell of alcohol? Has he been drinking? Why? Was he suffering too secretly? Impossible. He looked happy with Genevieve, the one that’s meant for him from the beginning. To make matters worse, the knot on her stomach turned tighter when he looked at her the same way on the last night they were together two weeks ago. Natapos lang ang pagtitig nito sa kanya nang magsalita si Atlas. “Daddy, you’re here!” masiglang bati ng anak, mabilis na yumakap sa ama nito. Knoxx’s face turned soft in an instant, marah

“So the girl is still alive?” she asked one of her men whom she tasked to do something impossible again tonight, eliminate the commoner Tala Eloise Sandejas. “Yes, my lady. It seemed like, she sensed me. She went back inside the palace quickly with Prince Knoxx,” said the one she’s talking to on the other line. With Prince Knoxx, she repeated inside her head, anger slowly rising from her chest. And here she thought that she’d already fixed that thing about the prince. She had seen how devoted he was with Genevieve for the past weeks. She thought that finally, her plan was progressing… and yet it seemed Knoxx was still secretly enamored with his commoner wife—fooling her and the world. She’d have to take a look into that tomorrow. She took in a sharp breath as she began to pace inside that secret bunk house near her house. She fell asleep there after she went home from the palace. She was waiting for someone important, one that has been helping her with her plans just recently. And
A Husband For The Wild Heiress Chapter 80: Back To The Beginning
Ares was pacing inside his room. He was waiting for Knight to call him. He’s waiting for his report on something he had tasked him to do. When he received a call from Knoxx more than a month ago that he needs to come back home to help him unravel their family’s enemy, it was Knight who told him the details he had uncovered about their family’s mysterious enemy Apparently, their grandfather’s former nurse has been living in Casablanca under a different name for years now. That was the reason why they had a hard time finding her for years. The nurse confessed that on the night his grandfather died, she did not sleep intentionally on her chamber and forgot her duty. Someone spiked her tea and made her sleep all through the night. The next day, when the palace was in chaos with the death of the sovereign, the nurse was abducted and threatened that if she won’t leave the country, she will be dead in the next 24 hours. Fearing for her life, she took the next flight out of the country. Na

Tala slowly gave her reflection on the mirror a once over. On her was a black silk dress; an exquisite diamond necklace Knoxx had given her on their anniversary; and of course her favorite pumps produced by her very own brand, Stella. She tried, but she cannot help herself but smile. Why wouldn’t she, life has been so good to her for the past two years. After that heartfelt reunion she and Knoxx had at her parent’s house in Manila, she officially became Mrs. Stavropolous, again, that very same day. After her parents and the rest of her family came back from their quick tour at Asteri Island, that is. Hindi niya alam na sa buong panahon na asar na asar siya kay Knoxx dahil hindi ito nagpapakita sa kanya, pasimple na pala nitong hinahanda ang kasal nila with the help of her Auntie Sam and her parents. Yes, her parents did a great part on the display of ‘sea-of-roses’ inside their house. Her father proudly admitted that himself right after the wedding. Knoxx then had decided to move h

Tala's heart instantly hitched, turning around as quick as she could. And there she saw him, under the bright morning sun, just a few steps away from her, the prince who’ve swept her off her feet since their crazy wedding night, Prince Knoxx Iossif Stefanos Stavropolous. She quickly gave him a once over and he never disappoints! Her prince is as handsome as ever. He grinned, making her eyes roll in fake annoyance. Agad siyang namaywang. “Why are you here? And where are the people of this house? What did you to my parents, Knoxx? And Atlas, where is my son?!” sunod-sunod niyang tanong sa mataas na tinig. Knoxx gave her a heart-stopping smile, making her want to rush to him for a hug. But she stilled herself. She must not let logic falter now. They must talk. They must. “You don’t have to worry, mi bella. Everyone’s safe. And regarding your question, I came here to explain—“ “I already know everything. Everything,” she said, cutting his words. He paused and stared at her for a whil

“Arise, shine, Star Princess!” anang pamilyar na tinig ng Mommy ni Tala na siyang nagpagising sa kanya. She gently opened her eyes and the warmth of the morning sun coming through the big windows of her bedroom greeted her. Pasimple siyang nag-inat at umayos ng pagkakahiga sa kama. She saw her mother arranging another bouquet of pink Ecuadorian roses on the vase on top of the bureau inside her room. “Another one?” she asked, gently pushing herself to sit on her bed. Her mother smiled. “Yes, princess. Your husband doesn’t miss a day,” anang kanyang ina bago muling ipinagpatuloy ang pag-aayos sa mga bulaklak. Husband. She still can't believe that the arrogant prince made her go through all the tears and heartaches for nothing. Knoxx is still her husband or so her father had told her. These days, her parents are openly discussing about Knoxx, especially her Dad. And she is more than relieved to know that despite his absence, Knoxx is slowly making his way through her parents' hearts.

Knoxx heaved a sigh as he stared at his phone, recalling the brief conversation he just had with Tala. Talagang ayaw pa rin talaga siya nitong kausapin. Well, with his wife’s temper he knew that the whole ‘getting-back-together’ plan he had in mind would surely be a feat. But that doesn’t mean he is giving up. He’s just… being considerate given Tala’s condition.Olivia had given her last night an earful of dos and don’t’s when it comes to dealing with pregnant women. At totoong nakinig siya. He clearly remembered how his bratty princess of a cousin reminded him over and over again that pregnant women must always have things their way. And that’s what he just did. Hopefully, that by giving in with Tala’s wishes for now, lumamig na rin ang ulo nito sa kanya at tuluyan na siyang kausapin pagbalik niya sa Pilipinas.Pagbalik niya sa Pilipinas.He sighed and put his phone back to his pocket. Pagkatapos niyon ay pinagmasdan niya ang royal ring sa kanyang palasingsingan. His Majesty gave it

“Yes, Genevieve seduced me and I gave in. I allowed her to fool me and get the better of me. I-I’m sorry,” said King George, still lying down on his hospital bed. Makahulugang nagkatinginan sina Ares at Knoxx, sharing the same gleam of anger in their eyes towards their enemies who had made them suffer for years. Kararating lang nila mula sa Pilipinas at doon sila sa ospital dumiretsong magkapatid. At first Knoxx was conflicted to leave Manila. Bakit hindi, inaayos pa niya ang gusot sa kanila ni Tala tapos aalis siya? If it wasn’t for his mother’s persuasion to go home, baka nagpa-iwan na siya. But he’s glad he did go home. Because if he didn’t, he would’ve missed the clan’s meeting and his Uncle George’s confession. Yesterday, they were informed that his Uncle George had already opened his eyes. But the doctors didn’t allow any member of their family to talk to him just yet. They had to make sure that the King’s condition is stable and that he is ready to receive visitors. It took a

“Ano pang tinatanga mo d’yan? I told you to leave, haven’t I?” gigil na singhal ni Tala kay Knoxx. She really cannot believe he’s inside her room right now, and lying on the bed with her, her very own bed! Nasa baba lang ito kanina a, kasama sina President Tuazon at Ares. Paanong naroon na ito agad sa kwarto niya? Pinaakyat na lang ba ito ng mga kaanak niya nang gano’n-gano’n lang? Imposible. Her Dad hated Knoxx’s guts noon pa. And she’s sure her father, hated Knoxx all the more after everything that has happened between her and her ex-husband. So how in the world was he there inside her room—comfortably sitting on her bed looking more handsome than she remembered? She tried to get her wits straight as she questioned herself. But all she could ever think were all the awful—morbid even- thoughts on how Knoxx ended up inside her room. She groaned inwardly as panic and anger instantly rose in her chest.Pagdating talaga kay Knoxx, ni minsan, hindi umayos ang huwisyo niya. Tumikhim si

The dinner was filled with formal talks about business, leading a country and current events. The topics were of his interest but when Atlas finished his food, Knoxx excused himself to spend more time with his son.They were by the receiving room, playing a race game on his son’s IPAD when Joshua approached him again, asking him to step inside the library. Agad siyang nagpaalam kay Atlas at nagsimulang maglakad pabalik sa library. He glanced at Ares who was walking towards the lanai with the rest of the Sandejas family and President Tuazon. His brother grinned at him and gave him a thumbs up. For what, he does not have any idea. Pagdating sa loob ng library, agad na nagsalita ang Daddy ni Tala. “There are three things you must know before we move forward from here. First, I hate you. That won't change even after a million years. Second, I still think you don’t deserve my daughter nor my grandson. Understand?” “I understand, Sir. And the third?” Sandali siyang tinitigan ni Joshua.
A Husband For The Wild Heiress Chapter 91: Promise 2
Knoxx had been in many difficult meetings and negotiations his entire life. He had been exposed to such since he was younger for he’s been born a leader, one who's supposed to see beyond the mist—composed, level-headed, sure with just about everything. But right there, in front of Tala’s parents, Knoxx felt like he has just been thrown in the water when he doesn’t know how to swim. Nangangapa siya at halos hindi niya alam ang sasabihin. If he’d be honest, his knees were shaking like a fckin leaf. Well, he should be. Noong huli niyang makaharap ang mga magulang ni Tala, nangako siya na iingatan niya ang mag-ina niya. And the events that had led them into that situation clearly proved, he had not been taking care of his family like he promised. He doesn’t even want to lie either or appear to be all righteous in the midst of the chaos. Because at that point, he knew, alam na ng mga magulang ni Tala ang mga nangyari rito sa pananatili nito sa Maritria. He cannot deny any of it. So he wan

“I dont’t know what got into your head and created trouble inside the hospital. Sa pagkakaalam ko, malinaw ang pagkakasabi ko kay Quint na galit sa inyo ang mga Sandejas,” sermon sa kanila ni Kylie habang ginagamot nito ang sugat ni Ares. Naroon sila sa isa sa mga treatment room sa emergency ward. A different doctor, a resident he presumed, was attending to Knoxx and dressing his wounds. “Bakit ako ang pinapagalitan mo? It was all Knoxx’s fault! I had warned him dozens of times—Ouch! Dammit! That’s hurts, Dr. dela Vega!” reklamo ng kapatid niya, panay ang ngiwi habang patuloy si Kylie sa pagdampi ng antiseptic sa sugatang mukha nito. “And it will hurt more if you’d continue complaining, Prince Ares!” gigil na sagot ni Kylie, patuloy sa pagdiin ng bulak sa mukha ng kapatid niya. Ares complained again, louder this time. Knoxx huffed. Why can’t his brother keep quiet? Hindi ba nito nahahalata na sa bawat reklamo nito, siya ring pagdiin ni Kylie sa mga sugat nito? Quint’s cousin surel
