Alison's Pov...Never did it occur in my mind that this will be the last visit I would have. I came earlier than before for no reason. As usual, I brought books to read to him. I'm almost done reading the books when Windle arrived with Danika. I keep Danika away from Dwight's family but slowly they are finding my secret.The word daddy that slipped into Danika's mouth was like surreally. I know Windle wants to ask me about it but he chooses to shut his mouth. His stares though are telling me that I need to explain how and why!Danika starts to like Windle as she stays with Windle than my brother the whole time we are together. When he asks me if this was really what I wanted. I have to lie and said yes. Of course, I would love to tell Dwight but with my own mouth.We are enjoying our meal while Danika sits on Windle's lap when one of the nurses came in looking for his guardian. Thought it was a good call but it was terrifying. My heart almost pop into my chest to see who was the perso
Devon Pov... When those punks set me up for a surprise valentine's date I didn't expect they will push it that hard. It's been two years now since that date but no one knew what happened. Sometimes sharing good news hits bad times and sharing bad news hits good times. I still remember that day vividly when I am sitting at Michelin that night nervous waiting for her that they insist to date her as she was an important person to care for. I'm still blowing myself hard to calm down when my date came. I'm speechless stuck on my chair unable to blink and speak staring at her. She's fucking gorgeous not wearing her working trousers. She let her hair lay at her back displaying her wavy long hair. I didn't know she has long hair. She was surprised to see me as well! We stared for how long before we finally dodge and sit comfortably to enjoy the night. It was supposed to be a date but it turned out to be a business meeting as we talk. We talk business to make us comfortable until a questio
Elisa Pov... I left because I don't know what to do. I know it was unprofessional to do that but I can't face him. I tried my best to take care of him like I promise Alison but it's hard to please him. Sometimes he was nice and the next moment he is scolding for simple mistakes. My heart broke when I left them because I know they indeed needed my help. I went far away to forget him and start my life like I used to be but it was damn had to pretend I'm fine if I'm not. I want him! I needed him. I come back to save for last but I didn't expect to meet his unwavering anger and disgust. I pretended to be a slut that night to get him because I fall in love with him the first night I lay my eyes on him. I even used my brother to pretend as my rude sadistic fiance and I am right. He is a good person and he is what I needed. A princess like me can't trust anyone. My brother hates me for doing that but if it's for my own good he will. Everything that day was scripted. I went downtown to sta
Alejandro Pov.. My mother-in-law is really rushing us to get married which I don't get but still, we waited for 1 year before we get married again. Alexandra just turned 1 and now after a month, we are talking about our wedding. Our civil registry was quiet and enjoyable but today is stressful eating all my energy up. I keep on peeping outside to see the people they invited. They bewitch us saying it was just a simple wedding to let them walk her down the aisle but look how extravagant it was. I don't want people to recognize me but I guess it's time. I checked on myself once again before going back to bed and sitting to wait for my call. I keep on heaving deeply when the door bursts open. I look but no one is coming in! I didn't move still sitting on the bed nervous when I heard giggles. "Hey!" I muttered looking at my naughty sister and my daughter Anicka. "You look awful my brother! Smile and don't mind them. Just think Cali and you alone. This is your big day and your face is f
Alison Pov... When I said I want to put a measure on myself how long will I survive on something I wanted to ponder. I really did and It's been a year now and finally got the answer. I'm thankful and grateful to my family who never left me and never push me too hard. They let me find my own way. I went in alone so I must find my way out to this maze I personally set for myself. Honesty, I was trapped in my own maze, and finally, I break through as I pass out. Gladly, I find my way out now! I'm truly refreshed and at peace. For the whole year I am searching for myself I was productive in everything that I choose. Our trading business is expanding its warehouse again which I am proud of before I will go back to the life I was supposed to be. It's not closing doors to what I gained after I stumbled. I just need to fix my family before pushing through. Everything is worthless if my family is still broken. Dad blessed me with my final decision and his only wish is to always hear my heart
Linda Pov... It's been a year since Devon proposes to me and we become a family of three now. I gave birth to our beautiful daughter that he can't resist. Most of the time he loses track of time being with her. Uncle Bernard is always called looking for him. When he is mad he is ranting towards Dwight who left the responsibility to him. After all the hurdles in everyone, we are finally getting to the bottom of everything. Alejandro is finally settled with his life, family, career, and his in-laws. Alison was happy to see his brother finally settled and happy. She blames herself for stopping his happiness, luckily the woman right for her was just next to their family.Dwight on the other hand just finally woke up and it was heartbreaking for all of us and Alison didn't know he was already awake. I heard she gave it up on her happiness and let it be what will happen at least the pain is bearable when the time comes. When Dwight woke up, he was devastated and set to fly back to Californ
Dwight Pov...When I woke up all I want is to go to her and ask her all my whys and whats. I can't still move on that day when I heard that little girl calling her mommy. We only have Daniel and she can't get pregnant. I'm already going crazy on my bed that I wanted to explode. It's crazy that you want to do a lot of things but you are incapable because of the situation.When the little girl held my fingers and played with it all unexplainable feelings gushed through making me wild and crazy. I couldn't grasp what feelings are trying to creep me but guilt and longing were prevailing. I want to hold her small hand to understand this feeling but only frustration waves me as I can't touch her at all.I breathe out deeply when my feet land at the airport in California. I'm shaking nervously. The last time I landed my feet here was to attend the ceremony two years ago and didn't expect my work will be recognized. I earned another plaque of recognition and it was supposed to be my gift whe
Alison Pov...When I saw Linda that night I know my secret will be out before I could visit the smith Residence. Hoping that I'll be the one to tell them the truth I keep for two years. It wasn't easy to keep quiet and behave as if nothing happens and continue our lives like we used to but once broken, life will always be different.I'm happy Devon and Linda find their happiness and are almost half of what is stored for them. I have to visit Smith Residences tomorrow. I bought everything my children and I needed before running home. We stopped at Jack's Coffee shop and he was astounded to see us in LA. He gave us a group hug! The kids were happy to see him as well."Damn Alison! You really love surprises now huh!" Jack blurted out."Not so much Jack! Actually, I'm scared of surprises!" I beamed letting the kids settle on their chairs."Oh yeah! But you love to surprise us! You know I'm not still over this surprise to see another little version of my idiot brother here!" He squealed go
Alison Pov... After 10 Years... The vast of happiness immense in every one of us was undeniably blissful. Though the ten years have passed was not all about happiness. We also feel sorrow, grief, loss of love once, a twist of jobs, and changing family status! Dad Maximo died five year's ago because of prostate cancer and mom died of a heart attack three years ago. Danica had a miscarriage on her third child as well and mom Leslie right now is sick too. The most interesting part of our circle was Laude and Elisa's love story and family. It's quite interesting and funny. Ethan is the spice in their hurricane love story. They decided that it wasn't just a love affair but true love and were serious about it after Elisa give birth to another baby girl. They have four children now and they just tie the knot five years ago and it was so beautiful wedding that we ever witnessed. Maybe a BArd Pitt and Angelina Jolie style but they don't like to be compared to them as they get divorced afte
Laude Pov...When I choose to let go of Elisa it wasn't easy but I can't see her every day crying secretly in the room missing our children. I wasn't there when they grew up and I already feel attached just staring at their photos and watching their videos every day. How much to her who is attached from the very start. I admit to pretending everything is fine as the days pass by but actually I am dying inside to kiss and hug them. I'm reflecting on my past attitude toward her and I know she is punishing me. I will take her punished without remorse if this is the only way she can take me in soon.Pride can really kill us big time. I was late to mature feeling young that I don't need her when she showed how she needed me. I don't have the right to get even to her or even complained or nagged. It's the price of my arrogance! I don't know what his family is telling my children about me but I am sure they didn't even tell them I am the father.I came to work today shutting out all my worri
Alison Pov..After 5 years..A lot of things happened in our family but it was fun and interesting at the end of the journey. At least we have learned from it and know how to deal in the future. We can't also inevitably stop our family keeps on growing as well. It just started with me wanting to be loved and love with revenge until we find our branches and learned that a big family was better. It doesn't matter if it's by blood or not related as long as you know the value of love and family. We become family as we trust and love each other no matter what.Our stories can be shared for others to learn from because some stories don't have happy endings but not all bad endings are bad! We can still learn from that and know how to navigate in the future. Don't be afraid to let go of people who are toxic and keep those who value who you are!After Windle and Karla's wedding that day they moved to Italy to help daddy Maximo and build a beautiful home. Laude and I manage LA and Alejandro and
Windle Pov...I've never been excited in my life before. Georgina and I wedding before was not like this. What I genuinely feel right now is happiness from within uprooting depth in my heart. I wish I can feel what others feel like sweating, nervousness, and nauseous but no, it's a different feeling, and it's overwhelming.I love her and I can't live without her. I am excited to build a family with her just like my siblings and friends. I know Karla will be surprised by what I prepared for her. I maybe didn't say I love her too in words but I show it with my actions. I want to make sure of my feelings before I will say them. It's easy to say I love you, but hard to uphold. I'd rather be shameless at first sight and responsible at the end.I know now that I love her and I needed her in my life. No hesitation and questions it was a peaceful feeling. I can smile thinking of her and what life's stored for us to unfold in the future. Whatever it is I am already ready to face it because I a
Dwight Pov...It's been two months since Windle find out about Karla and he chose to love and protect her which we didn't expect. Uncle Maximo was also elated to find out that his son finds a woman who understand and loves him. He comes over and asks them to get married while he still breathing scaring Windle and bring uncle Max to the hospital even though he said his fine! He will just be comfortable and relaxed if he finds out. Fortunately uncle Max was really fine and his prostate cancer never come back. Windle scolded him for scaring him. Uncle Max just laughs at his outburst, luckily he found a wife who can control him. They are a match made by the heavens!We didn't have a problem setting their wedding day and Karla isn't embarrassed to walk the aisle pregnant. Dad and uncle Maximo sets the date in June and find a resort. It was just a repeating scene with Cali and Alejandro, the difference is Karla wants a church or beach wedding. Windle just give in to what her woman wanted as
Windle Pov... I admit that I like Karla but my past and our age are the hindrances to why I keep it myself but I didn't know she will do something to hold onto me for a lifetime. I was crazy mad when I know she was the culprit that night but the back of my head laugh that a slender and soft woman like her can do that.I've been fighting with myself not to cross the line every time I almost forgot our boundaries but then she already build up that's why I am fucking not giving up on her. Acted like a good man to help her but actually, it's my heart's call to help her.My heart finally decided to give up the wall I built for her when I saw my babies and heard their heartbeats for the first time. It was an unexplainable feeling sweeping my soul and singing to me. I'm elated and don't know how to actually react to it but one thing is for sure. I can't live without them. Karla was the cutest and sweetest woman who crosses my path even though I am too harsh and hard on her. The boundary she
Alejandro Pov...After that terrifying incident. Cali didn't come home and chooses to live in her house for a while and I am in my house too. I want to be alone as well. I called Anicka to see what is going there. My baby girl is now a lady!Karla did not come to work for two days and Windle never called me as well. I don't know what is going on but I'm sure he is fixing this mess. He will finally have his happiness, just forget mom!I heard mom left yesterday as Cali gives her the cold shoulder she ever had from her daughter. Cali knows I am not pleased with what she did that's why she is waiting for my call but I will let her know her place also and be the first to say sorry and find me if she really loves me and misses me. Though, I miss her so much! I could sleep without her beside me, her hugs were my comfort!I hope soon mom will understand things that she can't control everything that already happened. All she needs to do is grasp on it and give the best advice she could give
Karla Pov...When Aleajdnro came into the office kicking the door my breath hitched. His aura was too dark, intimidating, and eerie. They say you can read someone through their eyes but what I saw was madness! I was frozen standing there looking at him as he walk towards me. I'm scared that he will hurt me or more than what a naked eye couldn't see but it was the opposite. I was struck dumbfounded when he lash out and checked on me. I couldn't speak shocked just staring at her. I didn't expect mom to lash on him without asking me what exactly happened. When mom slaps me I felt Windle's body shiver in anger as his grip on my arms expresses the strength of his annoyance and anger. I don't want him to flip out that's why I spilled the truth that no one should know but I wasn't aware that some of the people in the room already knew.When I said I rape him! The room becomes as quiet as the wind passes by. They were all dumbfounded and mouth agape staring at me. Mom didn't expect me to do
Cali Pov...It's my first time seeing Windle growl like a beast. I heard about him before but it didn't give justice to what I saw today. It seems he is ready to eat us alive, especially mom who accused her of something he didn't do! I feel like all the hair in my body was raised shocked and traumatized. I just realize only Alison and Alejandro know Windle. If I don't know anything probably Karla hasn't yet.I was pissed at Karla that's why I called mom but didn't expect mom to come over and straight to her office and so something beyond. If mom is inconsiderate and forgets the proper way how to interrogate then Karla is out of the blue as well. Why would she curse and yell at mom because of him? How deep is her love for Windle that she wants to sacrifice everything even her beloved career just to have a grasp of it even a bit of him?I can't still move on the word I rape him! Every time I remember it, I feel goosebumps shivering. She's really insane and scary! What happened to her wh
