"That's easy enough; you should divorce him." Lord Featherston's stern question that came out of the blue came as quite a shock to Sierra. She had not expected Lord Featherston to file for divorce so soon. Hesitant and worried, Sierra tried to answer, "But, Grandfather, we love each other; there is no way that can happen. Lord Featherston looked at Sierra seriously before replying, "Love? What kind of love are you referring to? Do you think I don't know how you and your family treat my grandson? Just because he is poor, you and your family insult and demean him." Sierra could not deny that what Lord Featherston said was true and a big mistake. "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I know I was wrong, and I will do what I can to make you forgive me." "There is only one thing I want from you: you must divorce Gama and abort your baby," "What? Abort? I can't possibly do that, Grandpa. It's Gama's child, your grandchild!" "I don't care; I don't want my family's blood flowing in the blood of hypo
Sierra picked up the phone with a smile on her face. "Hello, Gama."However, her smile soon faded as she heard the voice on the other end. "It's mom, not Gama. Where is she?" The voice on the other end sounded worried.And she quickly explained calmly, "Mom, there's nothing wrong. Gama is at the hospital; Ayala fell down the stairs."But Audie's worries became more real, fearing the worst for her daughter, "Falling down the stairs? Why is that? Did you do it?"Hearing the accusation, Sierra quickly denied it, "No, Mom. I didn't do anything. Ayala fell by herself, but...""But what? Tell mom. Is she blaming you? Bullying you? If so, let me know. I'll handle it!" Audie was getting angry, knowing her daughter was getting the short end of the stick there.Sierra tried to calm her mother down, "Never mind, Mom. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. I'm fine; Gama is here to protect me."But her mother's concern was still great, and she couldn't just let it go."You can't do that. Y
Gama walked away with steady steps; his heart relieved that he had made his decision clear. For him, all that mattered was Sierra and their happiness together.But his steps were halted again when he heard Ayala calling him."Gama!" shouted Ayala from a distance.Turning around, his face was tense. He knew he had to face Ayala now and wasn't sure how to tell her their arranged marriage wouldn't happen."She's going to be so angry," he whispered while waiting for Ayala to approach.Gama waited as Ayala approached him with long strides. Ayala's face was full of worry and despair."Gama, please don't cancel our arranged marriage," she pleaded in a voice full of sadness. "I know I may not be as good as Sierra, but I promise I will try to be a good wife to you."Ayala's desperation touched him, but he knew that his heart already belonged to Sierra and could not betray his feelings. Regretfully, he replied, "Ayala, I am sorry. I cannot continue this arranged marriage. My heart and my promis
Gama smiled warmly at Sierra, who was so beautiful that night. She was wearing a gorgeous dress that added to her incomparable beauty. "You look wonderful tonight, darling," Gama admired. Sierra smiled happily at Gama's words. "Thank you, Gama. You made this night so special for me." Gama took Sierra's hand gently. "You know that I would do anything for you, darling. You are everything to me." "Tonight is for us, sweetheart. I want us to forget all our problems and enjoy our time together," Gama said, kissing Sierra's hand gently. The two gazed lovingly at each other, then enjoyed their romantic dinner together, planning their future filled with love and happiness even though their problems were over. "Thank you for this wonderful evening, Gama," Sierra said softly. Gama kissed Sierra on the forehead. "I couldn't ask for anything more from our time together, darling. I love you so much." They both gazed lovingly at each other, feeling the strength of their relationship growing m
Gama listened to Lord Featherston's harsh words but remained firm in his stance. "Sorry, Grandfather, I must protect Sierra and her family.Lord Featherston shook his head sadly. "You will regret this decision, Gama. Ayala is part of our family, and you choose not to trust her!""I wish I were wrong, Grandfather, but I must do what I feel is right." Seeing that, Lord Featherston felt sad, saddened by the decision he had made. And tried to remind him of what the man he was defending had done."Remember, Gama, what they have done to you. They are not good people; they are cunning and evil; you must remember that!" said Lord Featherston in a severe voice.Gama looked at Lord Featherston's with emotion. "At least they were there when I needed shelter, fed me, and were there in my time of need. They didn't kick me out, even though I was always wrong in their eyes. But what has my family done? They chased me away like an animal; they didn't care about my condition at all, and now I ask you
In a quiet corner of the city, a slum area far from public view, a house became Darius's residence after escaping from prison a few days ago. With a disguised appearance, Darius freely goes to the city center without anyone knowing him.Darus' return from prison poses a new threat to Gama and Sierra. Darius, who has a grudge against Gama, plans to ally himself with Ayala.'I'll use this stupid kid to get even,' he thought, She was staring at Ayala, who had just returned from a night out.'Ayala, a girl filled with hatred and a desire for revenge for Gama's rejection, will be very easy to influence,' he thought again. Feigning a visit, Darius knocked on the door, frightening Ayala when she saw Darius standing at her door."Uncle Darius?" Ayala quickly closed the door, but he failed to do so; Darius held the door firmly,"I have not come to harm you but to offer my cooperation," Darius explained, which made Ayala open the door again."I know; you want me to destroy their marriage tog
Meanwhile, Sierra and Jordan gathered to plan a surprise birthday party for Gama and Lopiyu. They were busy organizing the event details, choosing decorations, and preparing everything carefully."We need to make sure everything is perfect for them," Sierra said enthusiastically. "This is a chance to give them a memorable surprise."Jordan agreed. "Yes, they both deserve the best. Will be a special moment for them."However, Sierra suddenly received a phone call that took her by surprise. She saw the call from Gama and quickly picked it up. "Gama, what's wrong?"While Sierra was talking to Gama, Jordan continued their conversation with the event organizer (EO) whom they trusted to prepare all the preparations for the party without Jordan knowing.After Sierra finished her call, she realized something was wrong, "Sorry, Jordan. I have to leave for a minute. Gama asked me to come home.Jordan nodded in understanding. "Sure, Sierra. I'll continue with this plan and let you know later."W
"Alright, explain why you went to the hotel at night. Answer honestly, with no secrets; if you dare to cover it up, I'll send someone to investigate, and I'll kill you if you're found to be lying!"Jordan was silent for a moment, looking guiltily at Lopiyu. Lopiyu, who saw that, repeated his question."Why are you silent? Quickly answer what you were doing there with Miss Sierra. Jordan, don't embarrass me by ruining Young Master's household with this misunderstanding?"Lopiyu was still stunned by Jordan's dishonesty."I'm sorry, dear. I can't tell you this yet, give me some time. I will tell you everything. But not now, not yet." Lopiyu sighed, visibly frustrated by Jordan's dishonesty with her.Seeing that, Jordan again tried to reassure Lopiyu, "Believe me, Lopiyu, I don't mean anything by not being honest with you, but it's not time yet. Will you give me some time?"Lopiyu found it hard to believe what Jordan was saying; he couldn't answer the question, "I don't know, even I don'
Sierra looked at her mother with teary eyes. "But, Mom..."Audie shook her head. "There is no but, Sierra. I know your heart is broken, but I also know that Gama loves you. We've all made mistakes, but what matters is how we fix them."Sierra took a deep breath, feeling calmer in her mother's presence. "Alright, mom. But I need time to digest all this."Audie smiled gently and rubbed Sierra's head. "I understand, dear. I'll call Gama. Give her a chance to explain and make things right."Audie walked out of the room with calm but confident steps, leaving Sierra with her thoughts. Moments later, Gama came back in, her eyes still red and regretful."Sierra, I know I've let you down," he said hoarsely. "But I promise I will do everything I can to make things right. I love you more than anything in the world."Sierra looked up at Gama, seeing the sincerity and guilt in his eyes. She knew their journey to restore trust and love would not be easy, but she was confident they could get through
Clarissa turned her head, turned her wheelchair, and looked at Vicky softly. "Vicky, are you coming?""Yes, I'm coming. I want to accompany you for treatment," Vicky replied, her voice full of sincerity."Really? I'm glad to hear that. But I don't think it's necessary. I still have my mom to accompany me," Clarissa replied with a faint smile. Soon, Audie arrived, carrying their flight files."But, Clarissa-""No, Vicky," Clarissa cut in, her voice trembling. "I apologize for being selfish with you. You're right; someone like me doesn't deserve you. I'm just a disabled woman who has little chance of recovery. You deserve to live happily with the woman you love, Lopiuy."Vicky leaned closer, grasping Clarissa's hand gently. "No, I chose you, Clarissa. Not because I felt sorry or forced to, but because I love you."Tears began to well up in Clarissa's eyes. "But Vicky, life with me will be difficult. I don't want to be a burden to you.""Clarissa, you're not a burden. You are my reason fo
Rony looked boldly at Jordan. "Yes, my future wife. And I won't let anyone bother her."Jordan looked confused and angry. She let go of Lopiuy's hand reluctantly, but her angry gaze remained fixed on Rony. "Lopiuy, is it true what he said?" she asked in an incredulous tone.Lopiuy looked at Rony in confusion, but before he could answer, Rony said firmly, "Yes, it's true.""Lopiuy, I can prove it to you," Rony continued without giving Lopiuy a chance to speak. He pulled Lopiuy back into the car and drove off. Seeing that, Jordan did not remain silent, he followed them wherever they went.On the way, Lopiuy repeatedly asked, "Where are we going? What did you mean by that?" But Rony didn't answer at all. He continued to drive until he arrived at the district court."Rony, what are we going to do here?" asked Lopiuy in confusion."Get married," Rony replied briefly."Marry? To whom?" Lopiuy looked even more confused.Rony did not answer. He just looked at Lopiuy gently and took his hand. "
At this moment, Sierra and Gama were enjoying breakfast together. Not long after, the waiter came to announce the arrival of a guest."Madam, we have a guest.""Who?" asked Sierra."Mr. Rony," replied the waiter."Rony? Why is he here so early? Just kick him out," replied Gama in an annoyed tone."Gama, don't be like that. Just let him in," Sierra pleaded calmly."Yes ma'am," the servant replied, and left to carry out Sierra's orders. Not long after, Rony came to meet them."Good morning," Rony said kindly. However, Gama's look of dislike made Rony feel uncomfortable and bowed his head."Sorry, I...""Rony, why are you here?" Lopiuy suddenly arrived, immediately grabbed Rony's hand and led her away."Sorry, young lady, for disturbing you," Lopiuy said before the two of them left."Lopiuy, wait, let her-" Sierra tried to stop Lopiuy, but her voice was cut off by Gama."Honey, let it go. We'll talk about this tomorrow. We have to go now," Gama said as she gently took Sierra's hand.Sierr
However, Rony's laughter came to an abrupt halt when the car Lopiuy was traveling in came to a sudden stop. Lopiuy hit the brakes hard, causing their bodies to jerk forward. "What's wrong?" asked Rony, confused.Lopiuy turned sharply to him, his face showing the anger he had been holding back. "Can't you stop talking? I'm sick of hearing your nonsense. Now you better get out of my car."Rony was surprised to hear Lopiuy's cold and sharp tone. "But, Lopiuy...."Lopiuy didn't want to hear any excuses. "Get out!" he exclaimed in a voice that could not be denied.With a heavy heart, Rony opened the car door and got out, standing on the side of the road while Lopiuy immediately drove away without a word. Rony could only watch the car disappear in the distance, feeling a mixture of confusion, disappointment, and a little regret for perhaps pushing too hard on Lopiuy. However, underneath it all, he still hoped there would be another chance to get to know Lopiuy better, someday.Rony stood on
"Lopiuy," Jordan called in a voice that sounded desperate."What else? Please stop bothering me. How many times do I have to tell you this?" replied Lopiuy in an angry tone, trying to control her emotions.They were in the lobby of the apartment, Lopiuy tried to get away but Jordan kept urging her to come back with him. Jordan looked desperate, trying to grab Lopiuy's hand but was firmly rejected."Lopiuy, please listen to me. I still love you. I know I've made a lot of mistakes, but I'm willing to fix them," Jordan said with a trembling voice.Lopiuy let out a long breath, trying to control her anger. "Jordan, you've hurt me so many times. I can't go on like this. I need space and time for myself. You must understand that.""But, Lopiuy, we can fix things together. I can't imagine life without you," Jordan continued, her voice growing more distressed."No, Jordan. You have to understand that this isn't about us anymore. It's about me having to move on with my life. I need freedom and
"Rony? Why are you here? And how do you know my apartment room?" asked Lopiuy, surprised to see Rony standing at the door."Is it a miracle that I found your room? I don't think so. Because we're still in the same building. I can still explore the forest, how much more this place?" replied Rony casually."Alright, I understand. Now tell me quickly, what's wrong?" asked Lopiuy in a worried tone."Don't you want to offer to let me in? My legs are tired from standing all the time," Rony complained as he glanced at Lopiuy's apartment.Lopiuy sighed. "No, I...""OK, thanks," Rony cut in quickly, just walked in and sat down on the sofa. "I'm thirsty, don't you have anything to eat and drink?"Lopiuy closed the door irritably. "Rony, you can't just walk into someone's apartment without permission. This is my private place."Rony just smiled broadly. "Yeah, yeah, I know. But we're friends, right? So, I feel comfortable here."Lopiuy shook his head and walked into the kitchen. He picked up a b
"Ricky, you... you're still here?" asked Lopiuy in surprise when he saw that the man was still in the office. The meeting had ended two hours ago, and now, as Lopiuy prepared to leave, he still saw Ricky there."Yes, I was waiting for you to come home. I want to take you home together. Do you want to?" Ricky asked in an expectant tone."Go home together?" Lopiuy repeated his words, confused."Yeah, I wanted to ask you earlier, but I know we're still talking about work, so we shouldn't be talking about anything other than work. So, do you want to go home with me?" Ricky tried to explain.Lopiuy hesitated for a moment, searching for the right words. "Sorry, I can't, I..."Ricky stopped him with a pleading look. "Lopiuy, please, just this once. I promise after this I won't force you to go out with me again. We'll just have dinner, that's all. Nothing more."Lopiuy looked at Ricky, seeing the earnestness in his eyes. He knew that Ricky wasn't lying. Although his heart was still in doubt,
After traveling for a few minutes, the car driven by Lopiuy finally arrived at its destination. They both got out of the car and headed to the apartment where Rony would be living.Rony looked at the towering apartment building with a mixture of awe and anxiety. This was a new beginning for him, and although he felt grateful, there was also a sense of uncertainty that haunted him."This is the place," Lopiuy said nonchalantly. "The apartment is quite cozy and in a great location. You'll feel at home here. I also live here, I'm on the top floor, Apartment Suite Room."Rony nodded as he looked around. The neighborhood looked clean and organized, with green trees giving it a beautiful feel. "Thank you, Lopiuy. I really appreciate all your help.""Don't hesitate, Rony. Sierra and Gama want to make sure you have the best after all that has happened," Lopiuy replied with a smile. "Come, I'll show you to your room."The two of them then entered the apartment building. A spacious lobby with m
