Fabian Pov...It's not part of my plan yet it happens. It is a beautiful morning that I couldn't chase away just like that. I don't know if I am risking a lot of things for her or if I am not just aware of my surroundings. Whatever it is I am willing to cross the river for her.The day unfolded in a tranquil symphony of sunlight and gentle breezes, urging everyone to release the weight of the world and surrender to the serenity that enveloped them. Birds sang melodiously, adding a delicate harmony to the peaceful ambiance, while the rustle of leaves in the breeze provided a soothing rhythm to accompany the day's leisurely pace.The hours drifted by in a dreamy haze, granting a precious respite from the bustling demands of everyday life. Fabian smiled thinking about all the possibilities. As the golden hues of dusk painted the sky, a deep sense of tranquility settled within, leaving behind a lasting imprint of contentment and inner peace. For him being with Izzy on this kind of beauti
Mark Pov... Despite harboring doubts about his friend's reliability, he couldn't help but be amazed by the unwavering support and encouragement he showered on Izzy. It was just a contract to start with and show the people who look down on them and step on their pride yet they harbor more than what they planned.I want to stop before someone gets hurt but I am already too late as Fabian is deeply entangled in the contract investing in his emotion. Before he would realize he can't already live without her.Monica and Jonathan are already affected and acting with their own desire and this proves their power being together that they can conquer whatever strike they punch. The conflicting emotions churned within, leaving him torn between the caution of skepticism and the genuine astonishment at the unexpected depth of their bond. Though uncertainty lingered, the profound gestures of kindness and understanding resonated deeply, reminding him of the intricacies that often accompanied human
Izzy Pov... Thinking of inviting him for this long weekend unexpectedly he already planned the best getaway from the city. I was in awe to see the beauty of the resort. It's breathtakingly beautiful and refreshing your soul. The moment she stepped into the grand foyer of the resort, her breath caught in her throat, and her eyes widened in disbelief at the sheer magnificence of the surroundings. "Wow!" The only word left her mouth. The opulent architecture merged seamlessly with the natural beauty of the landscape, creating a picturesque paradise that seemed straight out of a dream. Lush gardens with vibrant blooms adorned every corner, their fragrance perfuming the air with an intoxicating allure."You like it?" Fabian asked worried Izzy wouldn't like it."Oh, Fabian! I didn't like it! I fucking love it! How did you find this place?" She exclaimed excitedly. The pristine, azure waters of the infinity pool beckoned invitingly, mirroring the clear, cerulean sky above. As she wandered
Izzy Pov...When Fabian uttered these words, "Izzy, don't get burdened and bothered. I don't regret it." I was speechless and shocked. I didn't expect to hear this from him, expecting the opposite. Those words wake me up, jolting my veins to stay awake and alive staring at him. I thought I heard it wrong but his eyes expressed what he uttered making my heart flutter and feel butterflies suddenly. I promised not to fall again easily but his impeccable charm is irresistible add the fact he is kind, gentle, caring, sweet, and thoughtful.Amid the mundane rhythm of life, amidst the chaos and predictability of every day, there emerged an unexpected, enchanting gesture that captured her heart and imagination, leaving her spellbound in the wake of its beauty. It was a fleeting moment that seemed to defy the confines of time, etching itself into her memory with an indelible touch of magic. It was in the subtle details, the careful nuances that he wove effortlessly into their shared moments,
Coming back to the place that cursed me wasn't part of the plan but as a businessman faced the inevitable.The familiar landmarks, once etched in the mind's eye with crystalline clarity, now bear the subtle marks of transformation, hinting at the passage of years and the subtle shifts that have reshaped the contours of the surroundings. The streets, once bustling with the echoes of shared memories and animated conversations, now resonate with a muted echo of the past, underscoring the inevitable changes that have taken place in the interim. It's been ten years but I know the taint will always be there and it's not easy. Someday or somewhere we will eventually see each other again. If I can prevent that it's better. Everyone has something to hide and ponder as they continue to live. When someone finds solace there's always someone behind fighting their abyss. While Izzy found herself the paradise she must have her friend was starting to grable. Her happiness as well as a pin of torn
Despite the determination to move on, there are moments when the past surfaces unexpectedly, reminding one of the lessons learned, the trials overcome, and the cherished memories that have shaped the very essence of who they are. It is a testament to the intricacies of the human experience, where the past serves as a compass, guiding one's steps and shaping their understanding of the present, even as one strives to carve a new path forward. Yet, within the inevitability of the past's presence lies an opportunity for introspection, for acknowledging the journey that has led to this moment, and for finding solace in the resilience that has been cultivated through the trials and triumphs of yesterday. It is a reminder that while the past may be an inescapable part of the narrative, it need not define the future, for within each individual lies the power to embrace the present and shape the course of their destiny, even in the face of lingering echoes from times gone by.The supposed to
Expect the unexpected! This is the best phrase suited for this event as no one knew who would attend the most awaited conference. This conference is for businessmen all over the country.Fabian and Izzy were the first couples to arrive with their envious grand entourage. Followed by Jonathan and Candice who are unlikely to attend this mega event.Izzy and Candice locked eyes for a while before Aloha and his brother arrived to represent their company. Everyone knew he was still a bachelor but not ready to mingle. Some already branding him as gay but shrugged it off not wasting his time to explain. He swiftly brushed off any attempt to delve into the unanswerable or uninteresting, making it clear that he had no intention of entertaining such matters. Without hesitation, he always redirected the conversation toward more practical or engaging topics, demonstrating a preference for discussions that were grounded in tangible and relevant concepts. It became evident that he valued efficiency
Candice Pov...The hate that was raging in my heart towards her exploded. She loves the spotlight when I am the celebrity in our family. I hated her for coming into our family.Why did she need to come into my life and take what is mine? She is the hindrance in everything. I am now the CEO but people are looking for her.Jonathan changed after Izzy left him. He was once a sweet and caring guy to me but now he cared because of our baby.I'm frustrated and can't bare the sight of Jonathan pissed because of her. He keeps on throwing his glass and punching the wall. I'm scared his anger will be turned to me. Before he could, I ran out of our house going to my parent's place. The only safe place for me. Jonathan becomes unpredictable!"Mom!""Mom!" I keep on shouting calling her. I'm terrified right now and mad."Why are you shouting and why are you here?" Mom asks surprised to see me."Mom, can I stay here for a while?" I ask paranoid."What! But why?" Mom interrogated."I just want to st
Izzy Pov... I couldn't stop smiling as I reminisced about the moments we shared with Fabian. Those memories are priceless, and they remain vivid in my mind. I'm excited to return with my daughter this time. Now that he knows, there's no hiding her. It was too soon and unexpected, yet the result was great. Seeing Emily giggle and smile with joy was paramount though I was caught off guard. My sister startled me as she entered my room. "What are you reading that's making you smile so contagiously?" she asked. "I'm not reading!" I responded. She looked at me, confused, with a frown. "I want to go with you. Grandma agreed. " She informed. I know she will as secrets were already out of the bag. "Right!" We were talking and planning for my next trip with my daughter when the latest family photo we had taken at the park fell on the ground shattering into pieces. We were both startled and scared looking at the pieces of the glass all over the floor. She looked at me, and suddenly, I f
Jealousy is the worst! Whatever Denise, is plotting will fail as the couple has found their happiness and is determined to defend what they have, no matter who stands in their way.He dont want to leave them, but he has something important to settle before lying on a bed of roses with them.Fabian returned as an accomplished man, his smiles and happiness unmistakable. Mark noticed the change but chose not to question him. He knew that when Fabian was ready, he would reveal the reason behind his radiant smiles, as bright as the sun. "I can see the sun will rise after the rain," Mark exclaimed as he entered his office, finding Fabian in an unusually bright mood, shining like the sun. "I still prefer rainy days," he said with a knowing smile. "There's something cool and sexy about sipping a delicious, aromatic cup of coffee on the veranda." His words carried a hint of nostalgia, as if he was recalling something beautiful and enticing, lifting his spirits."Oh, never mind! Just keep it
I was determined to punish Eloisa for hiding my daughter for five long years while raising another person's child but my heart screamed no. The entire time, I was speechless, trying to stay calm and not let my anger escalate. I was furious that I had missed all of my daughter's birthdays while managing to make Yumi's birthdays fancy and special. It hurt deeply, knowing that even though Eloisa and her family could make my daughter's birthdays lavish, I still wasn't there to share those moments with her.Eloisa, you taught me to love you dearly, only to leave me when I needed you most. If you just told me or asked me, I wouldn't have thought twice to tell you. I muttered these thoughts to myself while choosing the best clothes to wear. Meeting her now feels just like meeting you before. My heart races rapidly, and I can't think rationally. Thinking of them suddenly put a smile on my face. It was unexpected yet comforting. After the chaotic life I had there, this was the best I c
Third Persons Pov... "You can't just take Yumi from me, Hiro, and you know that!" Denise cried, fighting desperately for her rights. Her voice trembled with emotion, but Hiro had already made up his mind, his expression unwavering. That's not part of his plan yet circumstances give him the better solution. "Why not? You are not capable of raising a child. You are delusional and insane." Hiro exclaimed couldn't handle the rage in his heart. Whatever her reasons for leaving Hiro despite her knowing she was pregnant was another hell of a story to tell. "I am and you just ruined everything." she protested still thinking she could get Fabian."You ruined your life when you left and chose to marry him, using my daughter, but you are not aware he knew your scheme. You are delusional, thinking your high school lover will still cling to you and forget that you are a homewrecker and crazy." Hiro emphasizes. She frowned, confused, trying to grasp what he just said."You are surprised I know y
Seeing Fabian in the lobby clouded my mind with mixed emotions. I didn't know what to say and couldn't bring myself to look at him. I know he is disappointed in me and his silence proves it all. I had expected him to lash out or question my intentions, but he remained mum, and his quiet demeanor terrified me more than any outburst could have,I'm biting my nails anxiously, waiting for him to come in. The sound of the doorknob turning and the door opening and closing signaled that he was in, yet he remained silent. I don't know how to start a conversation with him. The fierceness I always wear suddenly vanished in front of him. I slowly turned around to face him, he stood there looking at me with mixed emotions. "I'm sorry!" I managed to say fidgeting with my fingers."Sorry! Is this enough words to explain everything? Tell me, Eloisa, because I don't understand," he finally speaks. The use of my name, Eloisa, sent shivers down my spine bitterly. He never calls me Eloisa, and fo
"Wow!" I exclaimed upon arriving in their city, struck by its breathtaking beauty. It's no surprise Izzy would love to stay here—it's a place that rejuvenates your soul day and night. The bustling city offers stunning scenery at every turn, and its coffee shops are dynamically friendly, serving up delicious drinks that add to the charm of this enchanting place."I love this place!" I unknowingly uttered, still admiring the beauty that surrounded me. The serene landscape, bathed in hues of golden sunlight, cast a tranquil spell over my senses. Each detail, from the gentle sway of the trees to the distant call of birds, painted a picture of pure bliss. Time seemed to stand still, allowing me to fully immerse myself in the sheer wonder of the place. After drinking my coffee, I headed straight to my suite for the week. I had already researched where to find her, but first, I needed to meet her grandmother. Since that day, I couldn't find peace of mind, feeling a mix of confusion and exci
"Where are you going? Don't you know we are going to visit the branch today before the launch, and you have a board meeting?" I asked, watching Fabian grab his things in a hurry. He seemed like he was about to miss an important meeting or a flight, his actions frantic and rushed. "To the airport, because of Denise I almost forgot my flight." He replied annoyed. "Airport? What and why will you go to the airport when we have an important itinerary today!" I asked confused checking his schedules in my hands. "What the fuck again Fabian. Cleared schedule for a week for a business meeting. Damn it, Fabian, since when do you care about the itineraries I fix for you? These are selected and very important!" I whined, unable to believe he had arranged a one-week business trip and cleared his schedule again without telling me. "You can't do this Fabian and you know that!" I groaned looking at him. "I know Mark, and I have full faith in your ability to make this scheduled move happen by the
Not comfortable to sit and wait for them to come back. I pack some essentials before running out of the house. He did not forbid me to leave the house yet but I couldn't bring my daughter with me. I guess this is the punishment for being impulsive and arrogant before. I had the best life with him, yet I betrayed him without thinking. The anticipation of his punishment looms over me, filling me with dread, as he has yet to decide my fate. The only solace I find is the certainty that he will not harm my daughter. But if Fabian discovers that I lied to him as well, I shudder to imagine the consequences. All my efforts and sacrifices would be for nothing, and I am not prepared to face that reality yet unless I take drastic measures— killing Hiro. As expected he brought Yumi to the mall where she always wished to go every time we came out. I don't have any choice but to watch them afar until an unexpected scene unfolds. I was terrified at first but the next moment I was damn flabbe
It's been a month since we arrived in this city yet Denise is still on hold. I'm just waiting for what will she do next but if she will, my daughter will still be mine and not him. I thought she just wanted to manipulate me but I confirmed she was my daughter. I almost killed my own flesh and if that happens, I will make sure Denise or Kate will pay the damages. "Where is she?" I asked Kaito. "She was cooking!" Kaito relied. "What? Check what she is cooking! Who knows what she will put in it," I instructed him, my trust in her shattered. While she had saved Yumi by claiming she was my daughter, her deceit needed addressing to prevent a repeat occurrence. "Never mind, bring Yumi we should eat outside and have fun." I changed my mind. She is just five years old and I need to fill in her mind that I am his father and not that man. It's better late than never! She's smart and can understand. For the few days she was with me I started to like her and love how adorable she was. I neve
