CHAPTER 36
Arthuro was restless as he waited for Attorney Josh to arrive. He is now here in a large warehouse with no other items but the boxes of the wines being made. As far as he knows it belongs to Attorney Josh. Because one of the Warrunt family is the importer of wine in other countries. So the Warrunt family is also one of the richest. The employees said that Attorney Josh has never been here again but he called to prepare a room for them to talk about. And he doesn't have a problem if he waits because he also likes big and small boxes for wines. "Mr. Gatciano,” an employee of Attorney Josh called him. He immediately turned his back. "What is that?" he asked. He smiled at her before answering. "Boss Josh reminds me that if you are hungry, you can eat. We have prepared the room and if you also drink alcohol, you also have a choice there," he explained. Arthuro smiled at what he heard. Attorney Josh's hiredCHAPTER 37 It was late when Arthuro got home to their house. Even though he was still on the road, his mind was very much disturbed by how Anastashia could do such a thing."Anastashia, if everything is true why did you do this to me?" he whispered into the air.He doesn't know why it's like Anastashia is just fooling him. While he was driving, his emotions were mixed. He felt afraid that this might be the work of the Franklin Family who did nothing but do things that would shock the secret world. And Arthuro also feels anger because he doesn't know why this has happened for so long. He didn't fully expect this to happen."Whatever you want to happen, Anastashia, I hope it doesn't involve our family!" he said.He also thought that the Franklin family and the Gatciano family have been in conflict for a long time because this family is the most powerful in the secret world. Anastashia knew that when she was alive. Arthur also knows that Anastashia's fam
CHAPTER 38 Arthuro's heart felt happy when he saw his son enjoying what he was showing. He used to it when Arthuro's father made it like it for him. At that time, he didn't understand his feelings anymore and his father then said that all the inheritance would go to him."Dad," Owen got his attention."Yes," he replied."How rich are we really?" Owen asked him.Arthuro just smiled because Owen had really asked him about that a few times and maybe this was the right time to tell him the things he hadn't said before about their wealth."I am a rich and a wealthy man, son. I own five bank corporations both local and international. I have 500 hundred hotels, 200 owned restaurants, 20 big companies, and so on. Just in a year, almost 999 billion will be obtained if revenue and profit are combined. It's all mine," he said to his son.Owen stared at him when he said that."Dad, can you buy a
CHAPTER 39 Anastasia was making a big trouble. And yes, she is still alive. No one else knows why she is alive and how she did all this. She even sacrificed. She did this because this is what her parents asked her to do as compensation for a big thing she did: to fall in love with the son of the Gatciano.Her mother told her that she had to do it for the secret world to be silenced. That is what other high-ranking members of the mafia world have agreed upon. Even though she was the mafia queen, she did nothing but follow their rules. Rules are rules.But she still has one year left for the punishment but she can't bear to see Owen and Arthuro anymore. She loved them both. Both of them will understand why this happened when the time is right.And now that there is a lot of spreading news about her life, she is really worried. Scattered in the media. And she knew that Arthuro knew that immediately because he had many conne
CHAPTER 40 Arthuro did nothing else all day but plan Plan B of what he was going to do. He could not wait to do this because he knows how this will create a big impact to the secret world."I'm sure you will kneel in front of me like no one else when you run!" he said in anger as he looked at what he made a Plan B. He had nothing else to do but take revenge. He was aggrieved because he found out that his family lost fifty percent of its wealth in the secret world and the ranking of the Gatcianos dropped.He needs to do something because he doesn't want his family to fall completely in the ranking and they might look down on Gatciano.“I won't let that happen! Whoever you choose to be, you will pay for all of this!” shouted Arthuro. He punched the table and almost broke it because of his strong blow.He sat on the long sofa. Picked up a glass of champagne and gulped it down quickly. And after he consumed the contents he threw the expensive champagne fl
CHAPTER 41 Anastashia did nothing else all day but plan for her quantization. That was the only thing on her mind all day. Just like how she wants to return to the secret world and be respected by all of it again, she has to overthrow the Gatciano family first.Anastashia knew that Arthuro would get angry with her. But she will tolerate it even if she loves her and will be angry with her. She would sacrifice but after this living hell, she will find another way to turn Arthuro around. She loved him that much. It is that she cannot completely lose what she worked for. Although she had the plan for this. She has to turn everything around for it to be successful."There is no retreat, Anastahia!" she insisted to herself as she plopped down on the bed and wrote her plan on a piece of paper. "I know that many people will feel sorry for everything I do, but this is the only way to make everything go well," she said.If she breaks th
CHAPTER 42 James was always there for two people even they did such thing that were weird for him. If he does something bad for his brother, he makes up for it with something else. He could not accept that his inventiveness and knowledge in various fields were taken for granted.And only Anastasia did know that. Now that something bad is happening in the secret world, he still has to move like Anastashia and her Kuya Arthuro.It's a good thing that his older brother doesn't know that James knows Anastasia. He didn't know what would happen if that happened."I really need to get this done tonight," he said to himself once inside the secret room.He spends three hours working on what his brother asks him to do. Besides the capsule, it does something else. He just needs to create a website that his older brother will use for disclosing the secret world's identity. Arthuro also told him that he needs to be careful becau
CHAPTER 43 Arthuro was very angry when he was in Attorney Josh's office. Even though he is not allowed to meet here in public, he has no choice but to ask for help here.His plan will not be successful if Attorney Josh does not help him. When he knocked on the door, a beautiful woman opened it.“Good morning, sir. Please come in," he greeted and eased the door open.Arthuro just smiled in response. When he finally got in, he immediately spoke."Josh," he said his friend's name. Josh was near the fiber glass while looking out over the big city.Surprise prevailed on Attorney Josh's face when he turned his gaze to Arthuro."I can't believe you're actually coming here," Attorney Josh said.But Arthuro didn't pay attention to that because his goal was different now. Arthuro sat on the long sofa. He turned his gaze to the paintings hanging on the wall. He knew those paintings were painted
CHAPTER 44While Anastashia was in the kitchen cooking her pancakes she still couldn't believe what she found out when Josh called her. He said that he needs to be careful because Arthuro is doubting this. With all of that, maybe that's not the only thing Arthuro will do to Josh. Even so, she was still worried about her friend's condition.Even if she wanted to go there, she couldn't."Josh, be careful too," she whispered as she focused on the pancake.When Anastashia finished what she cooked, she put it on a large plate. She sat in front of the table. Although instead of eating what she cooked right away, she just sighed because she couldn't help but think about Josh. What's more, she couldn't communicate now because she knew that Josh cut it off himself.She held her nose. "But I really believe that Josh will be careful," she promised. She knew that Josh would do that because he was also smart.Anastashia took a pan
CHAPTER 90 WHEN Owen finished taking a shower, they immediately went to the kitchen. She found Arthuro having coffee. "Good morning, Owen!" he happily congratulates their son. Owen immediately ran to Arthuro. He also immediately hugged. "Mommy told me that you had a surprise for me," he informed. Arthuro looked at her while she was still smiling. She also grinned. “I just couldn't help myself. And then he will know," she promised. "What your mommy said is true, son. But later you will know what it is. Your birthday celebration is tomorrow afternoon," he informed. She just smiled as she looked at the father and son. As she stared at them, she also noticed that Owen was very close to Arthuro. She was jealous but she didn't want to steal Owen's attention either. "I'm excited to see your surprise!" Owen said. Arthuro looked at her again. She was about to speak when suddenly a maid came in and indicated whatever she wanted to say. "Madame, some of your relati
CHAPTER 89 THIS is the day they celebrate Owen's birthday. Owen's 11th birthday. Because Anastashia woke up early, she just waited for her son to wake up. She couldn't quite believe that she had just celebrated his birthday again. "You woke up early, aren't you tired?" Arthuro asked when she woke up. Ever since something happened to her and Arthuro, her trust in him deepened. She knows that it happened too fast but that's okay because they can pay more attention to Owen's life. "I'm just excited to congratulate Owen because it's been a few years since I even got to see my son celebrate his birthday. I'm very happy today, Arthuro," she said. Arthuro approached her. He kissed her neck. She also felt the piercing of his penis in the anal part of her body. "We can't have sex," she said. Arthuro laughed softly. "We will not do that because we will be preparing for Owen's birthday," he explained. She faced Arthuro. "I have so many sins against both of you, Arthuro. I d
CHAPTER 88 AFTER Anastashia took a bath, as soon as she opened the bathroom door, Arthuro's bare and naked body was immediately revealed to her. Her eyes widened and she couldn't believe what she saw. "A-Arthuro," she stammered at his name. Her eyes turned to the bed but Owen was no longer there and the door was also closed. "What are you doing here?" she asked. But she also thought that Arthuro would also take a bath. But she couldn't move her body especially when her eyes suddenly fell on his penis. Arthuro's masculinity was stiff as if he was shooting at her. She immediately looked away. At that time, her whole body was heating up. She also waited for Arthuro to speak but he just smiled and already knew what was going to happen. "A-Are you going to take a shower?" she stammered again. Arthuro just nodded. His smile still hasn't disappeared. She took a step but Arthuro blocked her.
CHAPTER 87 UNTIL Anastashia wakes up, she still can't quite believe that she and Arthuro are now in the same house. She couldn't quite imagine that she let her sleep next to her and Owen in the same bed. And now, she can't count how many hours she hasn't slept because she's still wondering if everything that's happening is real. I made a decision. I wish this is right above all the things that I never expected. Whatever the outcome, maybe I'll be ready. She promised herself. She was still staring at the ceiling even though she could hear the roosters crowing. She is also waiting for her son to wake up so that she can prepare food. But suddenly she heard Arthuro's speech. She wanted to look at him but she stopped herself. "W-What are your plans for Owen's birthday?" he asked weakly, not wanting Owen to hear about that. As she hears the question and Anastashia seems to think that they are just a normal family. She didn't answer right away and she knew he was waiting. She
CHAPTER 86 WHILE Anastashia and Owen were going to the gate, Anastashia immediately felt nervous. Even though they were far away, she knew it was Arthuro. What she's worried about is that Arthuro might take Owen. And she was afraid he would do that. "I guess it is your dad," she said sadly. She tightened her grip on Owen's hand as if she let go of his hand, it would never be returned to her. She is also afraid that when Owen is out of her hands, her life will also lose its meaning. "Mom, your hand is shaking," he said suddenly. Even though she hurried to walk, she stopped immediately. She faced her son and looked him in the eye. She knelt down to level her son's eyes. "I'm scared, Owen. Your daddy is here to pick you up," she stammered. She avoided sounding scared. Owen just stared at her. He thinks about what he wants to say. But before he cou
CHAPTER 85 ANASTASHIA was busy reading letters in Owen's diary app whenever she was not in the room. And she really couldn't believe what she read. She felt guilty. She felt that Owen was very sad in life and she really dreamed of having a complete and happy family. "I am really sorry, Owen," she whispered to herself. A moment later, she read a letter that was too long and really realized her whole personality. Dear Universe, Am I a good son? Why do my mother and father fight each other? Don't they love me and both of them like this? I want to know the answer to those questions. I don't want to be a child without a complete family. I want mommy and daddy to be happy and with me. That's right, we sleep in bed together, talk about something, watch TV series or movies, eat our favorite food, and go to the places we want to go. I want them to come back to eac
CHAPTER 84 A MONTH has passed and Arthuro still doesn't know if the land he is working on is safe. He settled everything about his lies, his part on the secret world, the mafia, or even everyone he owes. And everything felt like he deserved to stop all his connections. That's exactly what Owen wanted. Because he read the letters in his journal on the diary app. He couldn't have imagined that Owen could have written all that before. He had read that a long time ago but since he had planned to cut off all his connections, he felt better. And now, he is in a new house that he knows is far away from whatever the secret world will do to him. He believed that Jacob Escostes had a say in what he did. He handed over the flash drive. He is no longer behind in the secret world and the mafia. In fact, it's all over. But even so, she is still sad because Owen is not by her side. "Brother, aren't you leaving the house?" a
CHAPTER 83 A MONTH ago, the wind seemed to have changed. Everything felt like a safe place for Anastashia and Owen. For a month they did nothing but enjoy themselves inside the hacienda. Her hacienda is big and Anastashia is really lucky because her hacienda covers a lot of scenery. "Mom, we're going back to the river tomorrow, huh?" Owen promised. They had just come from the river. A beautiful river that they had just discovered. From the look on Owen's face, she knew she was very pleased. Just yesterday they went to the chicken coop, pig farm, and orchard to see how they were doing. Since Owen was still wet, Anastashia held the child. "We are going to the tree house that Mang Franko and I built. They said it was over and we would stay there for a day. Let's read there, sing, and eat. Let's just enjoy it there," she informed him. She could see the satisfaction on h
CHAPTER 82 Anastashia RETURNED IMMEDIATELY to the hacienda bought in Cagayan de Oro. An unknown mansion that she knew was safe from the secret world. What is important now is the condition of her son. She must put it in a place where the powerful higher ups in the secret world will not immediately find out. While she was still on the plane, Arthuro's reaction came back to her memory when she saw him fighting against Michel's subordinate. "Mom, do dad will be coming next to us?" Owen asked. She looked at him from the side. She can't lie to her son. "He won't, Owen. Your daddy is going to take care of something that I don't think you can have in his power. You will be safer if you are with me. Do you understand me?” she explained him. She knows her son is sad because of what happened. She will also put it in mental consulting because she can't be complacent. She knew
