Beatrice POVI could hardly move from where I was standing when I heard everything Storm was saying. I didn't think I would see him in this state because I knew him as a strong and brave man so I didn't expect him to cry and break down in front of me.I didn't know that he was going through something like this and I added more because of what I did and said earlier. Now my question has been answered, that's why I didn't see their parents because they were already gone.I stepped closer to him. "S-storm," I called his name."Go and leave now Beatrice," he said calmly but continued crying but I ignored what he said.When I got close to him, I knelt and hugged him. I don't know what came into my mind to do this thing but I know he needs someone to lean on right now."Hush now Storm, everything will be alright," I said softly while hugging him.I was surprised when he hugged me back but I didn't show it. "E-everything in my life is fucked up," he said while sobbing.He is right when he sa
Storm POVI don't know why Bea is doing this thing, I've asked her to leave several times but she doesn't want to. I couldn't avoid not having a breakdown in front of her."Why are you looking at me like that?" she asked me."I just thought of someone like you," I answered her."Huh? What are you talking about?""Because you are both stubborn but you two also have a lot of differences because he is prettier than you and more classy," I said."Are you insulting me? Even though I didn't grow up in a luxurious life, I dress well," she grumbled.I laughed because of what she said. "I didn't say that you are not wearing a better dress," I said."But that's what you want to say! Anyway, who is that person? I think it's not Kiara,""She's someone in the past," I answered her briefly.I saw the masculinity in her eyes. "Someone? Someone handled your behavior for a long time?""That thing isn't surprising, Bea, there are many girls who like me, so it's not unlikely that there are people in my
Beatrice POVIt's been two weeks since I had a conversation with Storm in his unit until now I still can't forget what I found out about his life. I am impressed by his bravery and know that he played not only as an older brother to Kiara but also as a mother and a father. I can't imagine how hard it was for him to lose his parents, his sister was still a baby.Now I understand why he is like that, the world made him feel so much pain and suffering. Until now he still carries the pain and dark past. When my father died, I almost went crazy. How could he be, who lost both of his parents, if that happened to me, I don't know what I could do anymore?From the time he told me about his life until he was able to return to work, we got along well, he was kind to me somehow but it was still inevitable that he would be angry at times but I understood that.And now I'm going back to my table because I just finished my lunch break. I also took out food to bring to Storm because he was inside hi
Kiara POVWhen I entered my brother's office I saw him eating, I looked at the time and it was two o'clock in the afternoon. I thought he was full. When I called him before I came here, that's what he said."Hi, brother," I said and kissed his cheek."Why are you here? I told you to rest. You just got back from the flight." he preached to me."Yes I already did, I already slept when I came home. I thought you were full?" I asked him."I'm full but Bea brought this food,"I sat next to him. "Bea?""Yes, she just came here before you arrived. She gave it to me,""I didn't know that you two were okay. Since when? I remember the last time you talked before I went to another country was not good." I said"We already talked about it, so all of that is okay,""Good to know it, avoid being hot-headed. You know, brother, you and Bea are a good match, it looks like she can handle your arrogance." I joked.He looked at me seriously. "Stop joking around Princess Kiara, I have no plans to enter in
Kiara POVAlmost five months have passed since I was busy at the boutique because of new clients. Fortunately, Nigel helps me sometimes even though I tell him that he shouldn't do that because I know that he is also busy with their company.And about my brother, the last conversation we had was that he was dating Bea that was two months ago and now I know that they are in a relationship. I even pissed him off the first time I found out because I still remember what he said is not the type of woman he would like.As for what I am seeing in my brother, he is happy and I will support him, I just hope Bea is the woman for him, I don't want to see his life miserable again. I know my brother deserves to be happy. And now I can see that he is slowly accepting that our parents are gone. "What are you thinking?" Nigel asked.I looked at him. "I was just thinking about my brother," I answered."He's already happy,""I know and I'm happy to see him happy," I said."My best friend deserves it, P
Storm POVI've been noticing Bea's nervousness for a while now. From the time I picked her up at their house until we got to the venue of the event, she was restless so I couldn't help but laugh because of her appearance."What's wrong with you?" I asked her."Nothing, I'm nervous. I told you not to take me with you anymore and I'm not used to this," she answered me."I told you just be yourself, right? You don't have anything else to do at the event other than accompany me. You'll get used to it." I said."You can only take Nigel or Kiara with you," she snorted."You know they're busy right now so you can't disturb them," I said. "Don't worry too much baby, everything will be alright," I added.It wasn't long before we arrived at the venue, because it was the birthday of one of my investors.I checked Bea and nervousness is still evident on her face. I know she's not used to this but I have to train her so that if it lasts she won't be shy anymore.We entered the venue together and j
Kiara POVI was going to my brother's office to get my gifts because he and Bea left and went to another country because of a meeting they even extended their stay for two days so they only came home yesterday. My brother and I didn't meet at home because I didn't come home either."Hi sister-in-law," I greeted Bea when I saw her at her table."Hey, what's up Kia," she said.I laughed. "Why are you surprised to see me here? It's like you've seen a ghost,""If you're looking for your brother, he's inside,""I know, I called him before I came here. Anyway, how was your vacation? I know the meeting was only supposed to be for 3 days, but you stayed there for a week." I said."Your brother wants to rest first, so we just extended a few days before coming back here,""Hmmm, how was the honeymoon?" I tease her."What's with that question? You're crazy," she said while laughing."Why are you blushing? You know it's cold in the place you went, dear, you can't just stare at each other the whol
Storm POVAt first, she became my friend until I confessed to her and luckily she felt the same way so I courted her, now we've been together for a year. I'm so happy and content with my life now, I feel that little by little I've been whole again and I already accepted that my parents are gone. With Bea, I feel so complete.And now I decided to surprise her and I asked my sister and my best friend to help me do it. Nigel is with me now while Kiara is the one I assigned to take care of Bea."I never know that you and Bea will be celebrating your Anniversary now," Nigel suddenly said.I smiled at him. "I can't imagine that the two of us will last long, because you know she was not my type of girl before," I said."I still remember what you said before that you didn't like her but look now you are happy with each other. And I didn't expect you to take her seriously and first since I know you for being a womanizer,"I sighed and sat next to him. "She became a big part of my life now Nige
Kiara POV This is the day! It's my wedding day. I feel mixed emotions right now, nervous, happy, and scared. The make-up artist that my brother hired has finished doing their things for me and I'm wearing my wedding gown. "You look tense." I looked at my brother sitting next to me."I'm just nervous brother," I said."To what? That you won't see Nigel at the altar? Don't worry because that thing won't happen, if he does that he won't see you and Chase anymore." he said. "Shut up brother, what you're saying isn't helping," He laughed and then came to me. "Calm down Ki, it's your special day. I still can't believe that my sister is getting married to my best friend now. It feels so unreal, I still can't believe that this is happening now, I remember when you were just a baby to take care of, then I always accompany you to buy your favorite books and foods, and later I'll take you to the altar, I'll leave you to the person who will love and take care of you for the rest of your life,
Kiara POV It's been five months since everything happened in our lives, I'm thankful because my son didn't have any trauma and he quickly forgot what happened to him. We also went on vacation because that's what Nigel wanted so we could have time as a family. As for Kaye, she immediately surrendered herself to the police, she also apologized to all of us several times and she is ready to pay for what she did, but her sentence was short because we did not file a case against her, only my brother. Even though she did something wrong to us, we can feel her remorse and she is ready to change her life. Little by little she is also accepting that she needs to move because my brother is happy now with his life. She has also talked to her parents and when she gets out of jail they will take her to another country. While Vina ended up in prison because of Kaye's help, she was caught quickly, many cases were filed against her because the police found out that the woman was also using illegal dr
Kiara POV Since we left Kaye's room, I noticed that Nigel was quiet, I didn't know what was going through his mind. I sat next to him while my brother is with Chase. "Are you okay babe?" I asked."I'm fine babe, I'm just thinking about something,""Is it about what Kaye said earlier?" I asked.He looked at me. I can see the guilt and sadness in his eyes. "Babe, what are you thinking? Is there any problem? Hmmm." I asked again and held his hand which I had noticed was clenching. "I'm just thinking about what's happening to us. It's all my fault, I'm the reason for all of this shit," He said."You don't have to blame yourself, Nigel," I said. "Why? I'm the reason why you went through all that, right? Vina did all of this because of me because she loves me. I'm just stupid,""B-babe,""I know we're okay, but I still can't get over to what happened. I'm thinking that what if I trusted you? What if I listened to your explanation?""I'm asking myself if I still deserve you and our son. B
Storm POV I'm currently in front of Kaye now, she just finished her treatment and is resting. I'm mad at her because of what she did to my sister and nephew but I can't hurt a woman. I know she already knows the consequences of what she did."Storm," she called me softly but I didn't answer and just kept staring at her. "I-I'm sorry, I know is it not enough for all the things I did I was just too blinded by my love for you that I did something terrible. You're right, if you love someone you won't be able to hurt the people he/she loves," she added. "But you did it, Kaye, you know how important Kiara is to me. She is the only family left and I didn't expect you to be able to put her in danger. I already talked to you, but you didn't listen, I gave you a chance because I treated you as family, as a friend but you disappoint me," I said emphatically."I know what I did was unforgivable, I kidnapped Bea and Chase, and I also put Kiara's life at risk. I just had no choice but to not do t
Kiara POVWe have been worried at home for a while now because my son is still not there, we have called the school several times and even the bus driver said that my son did not get on because someone picked him up and introduced himself as the child's relatives. My brother and I are very angry because of the negligence of the school.I was crying a while ago because I didn't know what to do, it's good that Nigel didn't leave me while my brother was talking to the police. We can only think of one person who can take my son."B-babe, what if Chase gets hurt?" I said while crying."That won't happen, babe, when she hurts our son she will put something on me," Nigel spoke emphatically."I'm going to sue that school! Damn it!" I hear my brother's angry voice."Better you rest first, babe. We'll take care of this. Dad and Mom will be here later." Nigel said but I just shook my head."I don't want to, I just want to be here. I can't sleep if I can't be sure that our son is safe." I said."
Storm POVI've been holding back my anger for a while now because of what I found out, I can't believe that he could do this to my sister. I can't forgive her! I will make sure she pays for all the things she committed in our lives.And because I was so shocked that I couldn't help but punch one of the men who did something stupid to my brother, the police quickly took me away from him. "Make sure they rot in jail!" I shouted."Don't worry Mr. Alcantara because they can't leave here and we will do everything to speed up the capture of whoever ordered them,"We talked about the case until I said goodbye, if she thinks she can hide for long then she is wrong. I am willing to pay any amount to put her in jail."What happened baby?" Bea asked me when I got into the car because I didn't take her inside."Kaye paid to do that to Kiara." my short answer."That woman is really bad, I don't know if she has any brains. I can't imagine that she would do that thing just for her own sake, I though
Nigel POVIt's been a month since I got out of the hospital and I fixed the family I have. I also told Storm that I intend to propose to Kiara again and fortunately, she agreed. I thought at first that he would not trust me with his brother.I have also bought a house for us but I haven't told Kiara about it yet. After all, I plan to move when we get married, because I don't want what happened before to happen again. I promised that whatever disagreements we have, we need to talk about it first, and we need to trust each other."What's wrong with you? You're so pale," Storm laughed at me because he is with me."Because I'm nervous, what if your sister doesn't come?" I said."If she doesn't go, no proposal will happen, it's that simple,""Damn you!"He laughed. "Just calm down, because you thought something bad was going to happen. Besides, Aunt Caliyah is with Kiara, so it's unlikely that it won't make it here. It's like this thing is new to you, you've already proposed to my sister b
Kiara POVWhen we arrived here in the Philippines, I immediately asked my brother to go to the hospital, at first he didn't agree because he wanted us to rest first but I didn't stop him because I wanted to see Nigel."Will you calm down Kiara? Maybe later Nigel will be the only one in the hospital and you too." He said."I-I'm nervous," I said."How can you not be nervous, you're thinking negatively,""Mommy, why is Daddy in the hospital? Is he okay?" My attention went to Chase's sudden spoke."He will be okay baby, your Daddy will also wake up because we are here," she replied to her son."Papa, did you say I will see granny and grandpa again?" he asked me.I smiled at him. "Yes you will, but just behave," I said."Yes, I won't mess around, Papa," he answered me.When we got to the hospital, I quickly went inside, I knew where Nigel's room was. When we entered, we found them sitting on the edge of his bed talking."Uncle, Aunt." My brother greeted them while Chase approached them an
Kiara POVIt's been a week since Nigel left and as he told me at the airport, he calls often, sometimes late because of his meetings one after another and I understand that. I do tell him that when he's tired, he should just rest and it's okay if he can't call right away, but what I say doesn't seem to have any effect on him.During the days that I don't see him, I do what he says. I need to help myself to forget my complicated past. It's not easy, but it's necessary to do so that I can be completely fine.My brother reopened the case about what happened to me before and he will talk to the police when we get home because that's what Nigel wants the person who did all this to me to pay.They don't believe that all this is a coincidence, they think that someone may have ordered them to do that thing to me."You always seem to be in a good mood since Nigel left,' I looked at my brother who had just arrived."And you are always ruining my day, brother," I said to him."Because you have s
