BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 31: BETRAYAL?
Chelsea’s POV“Marry me, Ken”He must have been startled when I kissed him. Even though I couldn’t completely comprehend what pushed me to kiss him all I knew at that moment, I found someone who would risk it all for me and that assures me.“A-are you s-serious?”I slightly giggled after seeing him caught off guard.“I don’t know what the future holds but you are right, now that I have a chance to choose, I’ll use that chance”“Is that your answer?”“I want to know one more thing…”“What is it?”“This decision might ruin you, are you sure you wouldn’t regret this?”“If being ruined means saving you… then I wouldn’t regret it”“Later on, I might end up feeling guilty and responsible for whatever unpleasant that might happen to you, what should I do then?”“When that time comes, I want you to be honest with me regarding your feelings and openly tell me about it”“What if I ended up dying?”“At that point… I’ll continue loving you… then and eternally”He never failed to amuse me with his
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 32: FACE THE PAIN
Ken’s POVI’m on my way home and surely none of them knew that I was here. I rushed to come back since no one of them planned to tell me what was happening. The truth is, they never told me that the partnership was canceled. I just accidentally found out through our family lawyers and I don’t want to tell Chelsea about that to keep her from overthinking and blaming herself after I went this far just for her sake.In the end, I’m glad that she made up her mind and decided to accept my proposal. I wanted to burst out in happiness that finally she didn’t reject me and the fact that were getting married, how nice would that be? to be marrying the girl that you’re in love with but in the end, I realized that this would be all business and I will be contended to be doing this to help her and her family.I arrived home and the first one I see is Adrian. He’s outside and obviously, he’s waiting for me.“What are you doing here?”He’s at my house, not at our house.“Someone’s waiting for you i
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 33: DEAL
Chelsea’s POV“I heard about what happened between you and your father. Are you okay?”Ken looked at me and smiled after a few seconds.“I expected that reaction from him”“It must be hard for you”I wanted to stop feeling guilty but I couldn’t disregard that feeling.“I believe that he’ll soon accept my decision. He just needs time”“Okay”I had never been awkward around him until the night that I agreed to accept his help just because I kept recalling the moment when I impulsively kissed him.“By the way I working on everything now and about the wedding I got everything---”“About that… I have something to say”“What is it?”I know him well. I am sure he’ll make this big and I don’t want him to do that. He already done enough for me.“Can we make it simple and intimate? A civil wedding will do for me”“But---”“And I want to take charge of it since you’ve done enough already”“Are you sure? I already had a venue and hired an event organizer”“Actually… I wanted to hold the venue at
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 34: PREPARATIONS
Chelsea’s POV“Dad, can you drive a little faster? I’m late with my appointment”I have been complaining about how slow Dad is driving but he wouldn’t listen and keeps on saying…“Safety is very important”I wonder if he also drives like this when he’s alone. I decided not to talk and let him drive.“That kid amazes me…”“Who?”“Ken… the way he makes his decisions reminds me so much of Dale”“You think I made the right decision?”“Only you can answer that”“What do you think Dale would feel that I am getting married?”“Dale, he’s kind and very understanding. He’ll get hurt but he’s not the type who’ll hold grudges against someone”“You think so?”“More than anyone else, you know him very well”Somehow, I was relieved to get those assurances from Dad.[SIGH]“We're here”I drown in my thoughts that I didn’t notice we’d arrived at the meeting place. I rushed to get out of the car.“Bye, Dad! See you at home later. Drive safely”I hurriedly went in and found the person I was about to mee
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 35: THE WEDDING
Dale’s POV The police issued a warrant of arrest to Zae’s mother yesterday and by now she already knew everything. She was held in the station but I think she’s already out after calling her attorney. The hearing is already scheduled for the day after tomorrow. Right now we have secured the evidence that we can use against Zae’s mother and also the witnesses to testify. “Do you think this will turn out well?” “I believe so” “I’m nervous babe” I look at her and she looks very worried. “This is your first time to stand as a witness and it’s normal to feel anxious” “I hope I’ll make it” [KNOCKING ON DOOR] “Wait” I stood to open the door but that was a wrong move. There’s Zae’s mother standing furiously in front of me and suddenly her palm landed on my face. Her hand was heavy which made it hard to resist his slap. This is the second time I had been slapped by her. “YOU, SHAMELESS BITCH!!!” She was gritting her teeth. Her eyes and her lips were shaking in anger. “YOU’RE MAKING
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 36: TRIAL OR ERROR
Dale’s POV“Are you nervous?”Stacey looked anxious. We’re inside the courtroom and it hasn’t started yet.“Yeah,” she’s breathing hastily.I reached for her hand and tried to calm her.“Everything is fine. You just have to tell what you knew”“Okay”Slowly, she’s calming down. I look on the other side and Zae’s mother doesn’t look fine. She must be anxious, especially for the fact that this will be controversial once people learn the truth about her.“Please rise. The Regional Trial Court, Branch 04 is now in session, the Honorable Judge Samuel Marquez presiding.” It has started. This is it. I am one step closer to getting justice for Zae.“Thank you, you may all be seated. Call the case.”“Your Honor, today's case is Criminal Case No. L-10873 People of the Philippines vs. Marissa C. Garza.” “Is the prosecution ready?” Our attorney stood and answered that he was ready.“Is the defense ready?” The defense attorney answered the same.“We will now hear the opening statement from the
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 37: FIRST DAY TRIP
Chelsea’s POV “Why didn’t tell me that we’re leaving today?”“I just booked last night”“Yeah, and you also told me just last night!”“At least I told you”“Gosh! You’re… I can’t believe you!”“What are you worried about? Everything’s ready though”“Yeah but… at least I was able to buy new clothes for this trip”“Is that what you’re worried about? Tsk! You look good in everything you wear whether it’s old or new clothes”“Don’t try to make me feel good. It doesn’t help”Was I too childish? I mean that’s Paris! I’ve been wanting to go there and of course, I wanted to prepare and look good. That’s my dream country to visit. I know that he managed everything from the booking and accommodation in just a night and I don’t have the right to complain but… grr I rushed to pack all the clothes that I thought I could wear there.“Hey”“What?”“I’m sorry”“For what?”“For acting very childish and for complaining”“It’s okay”“Can you stop saying that everything is okay when it’s not?”“Even if
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 38: KNOWING YOU

I’m also excited for today because we will be hopping onto museums. Yes! He let me decide where we would be going and he just agreed on it.After I was done, I headed downstairs and I found him waiting at the table with the food already served. We began to eat so we could leave as early as possible and utilize our entire day visiting good places here in Paris.I did the routing going to the first location that I extracted. The most visited museum in Paris, the Louvre Palace. As we reached the place, the first thing we saw is the glass pyramid situated in the center of the palace. It serves as the entrance for visitors.I was taking a picture of its exterior when I heard Ken speak.“You want me to take the pictures for you so you can enjoy looking around?”“Are you sure?”“Of course,”I think that was a good

BLISSFUL REBIRTH EPILOGUE
“Are you sure you don’t want me to come?” mom asked.“Yeah. I’m good. I want to visit him before I leave the country” I answered.“I am sure that he’ll be very happy to see you”“So am I. I’ll go ahead, Mom. I need to buy flowers before going there”“Sure. Take care”I took my car key and left the house. It’s been a month has passed when we finally sent Stacey to jail. We have enough evidence that could prove all her wrong doings and Ryan also helped up with his testament but he didn’t escape the punishment. He was also sentenced to a short-term imprisonment but he accepted it since he acknowledged that it was a pure mistake that he willingly did because of Stacey.I stopped at a flower shop and bought flowers.“For your lover?”“Eh?”“I’m sorry. I am just curious. White flowers look pretty and neutral. It would fit for anyone”“Oh… is that so… give me a bouquet please”“Sure”She started arranging the flowers and the moment she finished, I paid her.“You don’t want to put some letter
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 45: CONFRONTATION
Dale’s POV“Why are you making stories? Stacey is my girlfriend---”“I am not making stories, Chelsea!”“Then what is this?!”“This is the truth! I know that I wasn’t good to you but I can never attempt to kill you---”“Tell me… I am curious about this… you denied that you met the guy who fabricated the pill… where were you then? Why can’t you tell the truth?”“First, I don’t know who that man is! I never seen him and I never brought a pill to him! I can’t to the court where I am because…”“What?”“Because I am having an affair with a politician!”An affair?“You mean a relationship with a married man?”“Let me make that clear, they’re divorced”“That’s pretty valid but that’s not enough to prove me your innocence”“I understand. You have every right to be mad at me. But you know what you made me realize? That was drifting apart. Every day, it gets harder to reach each other and that is because I pushed you away. Because I am obsessed with my career and want only the best for you, I d
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 44: SURVIVE
Chelsea’s POV“Come in”Stacey invited me in. We’re meeting at her house since she told me that she has something to tell me. Whatever it is… I have no idea.“Please take a sit”I sat in the couch in front of her and acted as naturally as I could.“You should drink first”She offered me food and drinks too.“Thank you for the offer but I can’t drink juice anymore”“Is that so…”“By the way…what is it that you want to tell me?” I asked.“Did Zae’s mother come to you?”“No”She’ll surely suspect me if I say yes.“Okay… the thing is… she has a voice recording and she’s been using that to blackmail me”“What voice recording?”How did she know about it?“It was supposed to be an audition piece. I wanted to enter showbiz so I could be around Zae and it happened that she’s the veteran actress who partnered with me to do the audition and last minute she decided to change the script and when I delivered that, she secretly recorded it and she’s been using that to blackmail me”“Why didn’t you r
BLISSFUL REBIRTH CHAPTER 43: SWEET BUT PSYCHO
Chelsea’s POVWe are on the way to see Zae’s mother and ask about the time that she visited Zae on the night that she died since the guy next door told us his wife had seen her. She might feel that this is a little inappropriate but this is the only way I know to find the culprit.After hitting the doorbell, someone came out.“Who are they?”“We’re looking for Ms. Marissa, is she there?”“Can I ask for your name so I can tell her?”“Sure. I’m Chelsea, Zae's friend and we want to talk to her for a while”“Wait here”After a while of waiting, the helper came back and let us in.As we entered, we saw Zae’s mother in the living room, smoking with her sleeping robe on. She told us to sit in front of her before she squeezed out the cigarette.“You’re Zae’s friend?” she asked.“Yes”“What do you want?” she uninterestingly asked.“We want to ask if you visited Zae on that night that she died”“I did” she answered with no hesitance.“Why?”“Don’t tell me you’re suspecting me as the one who kil

Ken’s POVIt’s been a week that I have been working on this problem that I have with Dianne. I want to nullify this marriage before Chelsea learns about it. I couldn’t see her while having this problem. I want to make sure to finish this before visiting her and tell her about it so I can explain.“You don’t have to make up stories just to divorce me” Dianne entered the office saying that.“What do you want?” I coldly asked without paying attention to her.Just a few more steps and everything is done. I can finally set free from her and I have nothing to hide from Chelsea.“You’re acting like we've never been in love with each other”“Are we? I can’t remember”“Don’t make me look stupid. You signed it and so do I---”“And then what? You run away?”She looks stunned when I say that. Of course, she can’t deny that because that is the truth.“That means you were looking for me?”“What do you think?”“I think… you loved me”“You guessed it wrong.

You know I’m so weak with that”“Pretty please?”“Grr, you’re stubborn. Fine.”I did a victorious smile after winning a request. Although traveling is not too risky for me he was worried that I might feel something on the plane however the doctor says that it’s possible as long as I take enough precautions on it. As much as he wanted to stay a little longer until I recovered, I kept on insisting every day to go home. We’ve been staying here for months and I felt like a total burden to him.I was sitting on the bed while he was cleaning the room and it took me back to all the realizations that I had these past few weeks while I was in the hospital. He’s been doing all the stuff and work that he has never done before. He would run to the laundry ho

I am starting to panic especially since we are not in our country.“What happened to her?” a stranger approached us.“She passed out. Can you help me get a cab?”The stranger was kind enough to do what I asked him. When the cab arrived, I carried her in and told the driver to bring us to the hospital. As we arrived, some staff assisted me and asked what happened. I told them about her heath condition and her illness.“We’ll examine her and run some tests. You can wait for her outside”“Okay”I patiently waited for the doctor to come out but it’s taking longer than I expected. Weirdly, I feel very nervous like something not good is about to happen. After a while, someone came out.“What is your relationship with the patient?”“I’
