2024-10-29 19:42:56BBAP CHAPTER 121
What the hell was she talking about?
It was what Carden could ask himself after he heard her words. He didn’t have time to ask her, for her already when he got back his sanity from long seconds of gaping.
He still couldn't get it. Of all people, he knew that he was infertile and he couldn't give her a child so how come he was the real father of the child she beared? His heart hammered loud and fast. He couldn’t think of how it became possible when it was clear to the doctor that he was infertile. It was impossible!
But it has been years...the woman should be tired of lying by now, and he could see from her eyes the hatred and rage from all that he said earlier. The way she revealed the one she has been talking to was not his husband but a child...and he was the real father.
He messed his hair. He wanted to come after her, but his mind was confused. What would he say to her? He can’t even believe it!
With hi

BBAP CHAPTER 122At that very moment, Dalmi realized that Carden Thompson was a complete jerk. How can one be so insecure about himself and doesn’t believe in his own ability? She knew he was infertile, but it has been years and it still hasn’t occurred in his mind that there was no way she would cheat in their relationship?Shaking her head, she went back to her room and reached for her phone on the bedside table. She sat at the edge of the bed and searched for Jack's number in her phone and called him. When she put it on her ear, her eyes drifted towards the glass window. She could see from the small gap between the mirror and the curtain that the rain was still pouring outside, but compared to what they had earlier after she took a bath, it was better.“Dalmi! Where are you?” Brooke’s worried voice rang before her ears, making her move the phone far from her ears as she listened to the woman. “We have a typhoon and you are

BBAP CHAPTER 123“Mommy! Papa is here!” Denver’s cheerful voice and joyous face were what welcomed Dalmi Arizona when she stepped into the living room. Johannes, who was then eyeing her with a proud smirk on his face was carrying her child in his while standing in the middle of the room.Forcing a smile on her face, she slowly walked towards them and tried to take a hold of Denver. “Love, you can’t be carried anymore, you’re already a big boy!” she said and tried to get him off Johannes's arms but he only tightened his hold.“No, mom! I miss Papa and he’s here! I wanna hug him!” the little boy protested.“But Uncle is probably tired from the ride, he needs to take a rest and-”“It’s okay, Dalmi…” the man said, making her glance at him even when she wanted to avoid him. Just like how she felt when the man was around, her heart hammered loudly. She didn&r

BBAP CHAPTER 124 Dalmi hid her hands behind her back and pinched the one with the other. Biting her lips, she slowly followed where the man was leading her with her eyes glued to the floor. She didn't know why the man called her at this hour for a talk, but she already had a hunch. Johannes had been a good friend to her ever since she came to Chicago and lived there with Denver, and for years, the man didn’t fail to give her signals that he liked her. And although she also showed him that she was not ready for a new relationship, she knew the man was still hoping that she could reciprocate what he felt. Her head bumped on his back when he halted from his walk, making her in pain as she touched her forehead. “Why are you not saying anything?” the man glanced behind his shoulders, tilting his head a bit to meet her eyes. “Sorry...I wasn’t looking at where I stepped on,” she bit her lips and shifted her gaze to the skies. She could already predic

BBAP CHAPTER 125“C-Carden…” Dalmi immediately departed from the hug and faced the man who spoke, only to see Carden Thompson standing proudly with his maroon polo and black slacks with a box of cake which, she thought from Brooke Bakeshop. His face was with his usual frown, and his eyes as dark as the night sky.Dalmi’s heart hammered loudly when she saw the man’s lips pursed. The darkness she could see from his face made her stand in a defensive stance, and at the back of her mind, she was already thinking of how she could explain everything to him.“I...I was….w-what are you doing here?” She stammered, remembering how she let Johannes hug her earlier, which made her legs wobble in fear and nervousness of what the man may think. “I-it’s Christmas! You should be with your family and not here!”“That’s why I am here, Dalmi…” Carden replied, but his eyes were on th

BBAP CHAPTER 126“Mommy, why didn’t you wake me up? I want to open my gift now,”Carden froze in his position when he saw a little boy stopped in front of Dalmi Arizona while hugging his superman toy in his arm. His almond eyes were black, thin lips, and fair-skinned.He blinked his eyes. Was he hallucinating?Seeing the child whom Dalmi called as Denver made his heart pound like a beast was punching it continuously, attempting to come out of his chest.“Denver…” the woman in front of him whispered as she reached for the child’s thin arms. Dalmi squinted her eyes towards him for a second but drifted back to the kid.“I woke up without you on my side, but when I looked into the clock I saw it was twelve. Merry Christmas Mommy!” The kid kissed her cheek and smiled widely.“I’m sorry, Denver. I almost forgot about it because we are eating here. Come, Mommy will let you ha

Dalmi! I won’t let go unless you tell me that you will introduce me to him properly. I promise I will believe everything you say from now on. I trust you, and I don’t want that Johannes to be with you when IU was supposed to be the one by your side while raising Denver!”Dalmi could feel the hatred and fear in Carden’s voice, and right now, although she could still have a bit of guilt in her heart because of her son’s treatment towards him, she also couldn't

BBAP CHAPTER 128“No one calls me Cadmus, Uncle. Even Mom doesn’t call me like that.”When confusion came across Denver’s eyes and he furrowed his brows, Carden became more convinced that Denver was a complete copy of him, only with fair skin. He cupped his cheeks and caressed them with his thumb, his eyes filled with tenderness as he felt the twisting pain in his heart.He thought, the only person missing for him to become whole again was Dalmi. But there was this another person who can both give the same effect towards him. One who could make him happy just by seeing him but could also make him cry in pain just because of a single word.He introduced himself as an uncle when he was the father, but he couldn't complain. He wanted to be called my father, but he couldn’t just give orders.“Why? Don’t you like your first name?” he asked. He could feel the heat at the corners of his eyes and the difficul

BBAP CHAPTER 129Dalmi’s heart hammered loudly when Carden let go of her and closed the sliding door. She touched her arms in an up and down motion, her body shivered in coldness as her hair danced with the cold wind.“It was late at night...shouldn’t you go home a-already?” she stammered.She didn’t know why she suddenly felt nervous, but there was something in the man’s gaze and aura that kept her from speaking straight, or even looking him in the eyes! She roamed her eyes in the dark sky. She didn’t know how many times she had seen it today, but she would gladly stare at it more rather than staring at the man in front of her who could only bring nothing but fear in her whole being.“No,

Chapter 143: When They Thought Things were fixed “This is why I don’t trust you, Carden. I don’t want my child to marry someone as incompetent as you.” The way the old lady said it to him felt like it was a dagger sent to his chest. To hear his wife’s mother those words were too painful to swallow, and his mind couldn't accept. “You...don’t trust me? Auntie, I was just worried about my son!” “Because you know you cannot protect him! You know you can’t protect your family because you are incompetent! I already knew you are that kind of man when I met you!” Carden had never thought that Dalmi’s mother could be like this. Never in his entire life, he had imagined for one of the

Cold sweat numbed her fingers, and her heart hammered fast.“D-Denver is w-what?” as if she suddenly became deaf, she tapped her ears with her hands.“D-Denver is missing, Dalmi-”“How the hell would that happen, Carden? You were with him!” she yelled when it dawned on her. She was expecting the man to deny it, or to say that he was just joking and would laugh, but she was wrong!Her eyes turned sharp, and her cheeks burned in anger. “Tell me you are joking right now, Carden! Bring him to me or you’ll never want to experience my anger!&rd

Chapter 141: Where is He?“Mommy! When will Daddy come to pick us up?” Denver pouted his lips and forcibly leaned his back on the couch. It was a Saturday morning and Carden was promised to bring him to the mall and play.It has been a month since that night, and everything was going smoothly. She thought the man was just joking and that he only said it to her because they finished making love, but after a week, with a velvet box and diamond ring in his hand, he proposed to her.It was the second time that they will get married but at that very moment, it felt like it was the first...and it really was. Because they started at a forced marriage and although they had an engagement, there was no love and meaning behind it compared to how it was at that time.Until now, she couldn't believe that she would once again marry Carden Thompson. In a span of a week, the preparations started. The first week became busier than she thought, for it was the t

Chapter 140Carden crossed his arms as he leaned his back at the wall. It was past eleven, and Denver and Dalmi were already in a deep slumber; however, he still couldn’t get himself to sleep.He was standing on Dalmi’s veranda, his back leaning on the wall and his eyes gazing at the deep, night sky. His disheveled hair kept on dancing with the cold wind as if it was upbeat music that won’t stop his hair from moving sideways, but he didn’t mind, for the only thing he wanted right now was to enjoy the peacefulness of the night.Up until now, he still couldn't believe that everything was falling into their right places. Denver accepted him as his father, he and Dalmi were fine...and they’re gonna sleep on the same roof tonight. It felt nostalgic and surreal, like a dream...and he was scared it might be taken away once he wakes up tomorrow because he didn’t want to fall asleep.“I thought you were asleep,” he s

Did Denver really call him his daddy or he was just dreaming?“Can you...can you repeat what you just said earlier?” he said. His eyes are still wide from the shock as he glimpsed at Dalmmi who also mirrored what he felt right now.Ecstasy, shock, disbelief...all of it was mixed up in his heart that he didn't know how he would react.“I am asking if you wil

Chapter 138“Mommy! Someone ate my Banana Split!” Denver cried and gripped the white comforter. Tears cascading down his chubby cheeks as his face reddened in anger.“I asked Yaya Linda to find it in the refrigerator but she said there was nothing!”No matter how she tried to act like she was sad about his loss, she couldn't. The kid just said that he didn’t like it in front of Carden, now that he was gone, he was searching for it?“I thought you don’t like it? Why are you asking Yaya to find it for you?” She wanted to laugh, but she knew her child would cry more if she did so she just touched his hair, pushing it upwards to see the whole of his face.

Chapter 137Dalmi’s jaw dropped when she saw how Denver put the spoon down and crossed his arms like a grown-up man. The kid, who obviously looked like he enjoyed the first two scoops when he was tasting it, now looked as though he had tasted the worst banana split he ever had.“I-is he serious?” She shifted her gaze towards Carden who just picked up the spoon and sat at the seat where Denver sat earlier. He picked a portion of the desert and acted as if she was now in front of him.“Carden! Aren’t you offended that your child didn’t like what you did?” she furrowed her brows. If her son was already weird, she already knew that he got it from his father. Instead of thinking as to why Denver had to walk out, he just eats the leftovers! She glared at him.“Why? Should I be sad that Denver walked out?”“Yes! He just said he doesn’t like it!” she retorted and crossed her arms.

Chapter 136“No! Papa Johannes is my father!” the kid’s yell made Dalmi go back to reality. She was then, in gape and shock of the sudden revelation earlier, and seeing how her son ran away from them made her heart hurt.“Denver!” She called and was about to chase after him when he realized that Craden didn’t stand up and that he was still standing on his knees.“Carden, I’m sorry... i'll try to talk to him and explain things,” she said in a troubled voice and sighed. “I told you we can’t just say this to him in a rush, I know Denver would freak out…” she shook her head.But the man just let out a burst of low laughter before he stood up and clapped his hand to clear off the dust.“I don’t want to lie, Dalmi...I am hurt, but I will never give up on him. I promise I will wash off every memory from that man until he accepts me as his father.”That
