Oliver couldn't describe how he felt. A lot of questions began forming in his head and either Sofia or Ruella can answer but he doubt if one of them would be honest enough to tell the whole story. However, he must at least try to find the answers to those bugging questions or he might go crazy.

He called Sofia out then they went to a place where they could talk in peace.

Sofia who was panicking earlier, manage to calm down her inner turmoil and decided to act naturally. Without showing any signs of disorientation, she smiled at him and asked.

"Ollie, what's the occasion?"

"Wala lang. Naisip ko lang na lumabas kasama ka. In a few days, I won't be able to do this kind of stuff with you so I took advantage of this rare opportunity." He replied trying to sound casual as he used to be.

"Na-nagkita ba kayo ni dad?" Tanong ni Sofia.

Tumango si Oliver ng marahan before he faces her. "What was he talking about, Sofia? He said that the incident this morning was related to that accident last y

    Pagsikat ng araw, sakto naman na natapos din ni Ruella ang kanyang ginagawa.Binalik niya muna sa loob ng safe ang mga importanteng dokumento bago siya nagtungo sa kanyang kwarto upang magpahinga.Kakapikit pa lamang ng kanyang mga mata when Oliver barged in with a tray in his hand."Rue," He called out gently."Hayaan mo muna ako matulog, utang na loob lang." She groaned while covering her face with a pillow."No way! Kailangan mo muna kumain bago matulog otherwise hindi kita tatantanan. Kukulitin kita ng kukulitin hanggang sa manawa ka." He swore as he began to shaking her arm.Ruella, whose eyes remained closed tried to dodge until she finally get fed up by his nagging."Wala ako sa mood kumain. All I need is a peaceful rest!" She protested sleepily."Then you shouldn't have brought me here with you." He said, "I'm just feeling grateful to you for picking me up at the bar last night kaya ginawa kita ng breakfast."Her brows furrowed then her eyes half-open.Recalling how the barten

    Instead of calling Emman, Oliver dialed Tommy's number in a hurry."What the hell is going on?!"He asked the man directly because he knows that Ruella must've told him everything before heading towards her destination.Tommy snorted coldly. "I'm not one of your employees, Mr. Mitchell. I don't owe you any explanation.""Tell me what's going on!" Oliver demanded haughtily. "Ruella might be in danger!""You seemed confused." Tommy chuckled disapprovingly. "Ruella is mine to protect and Sofia is your responsibility. I hope you know that!""This is a matter between life and death! How could you be so-...""If you're curious, why not go back to your apartment? You should've got a good view from there." He said before he dropped the call.Oliver's jaw clenched as he dialed Emman's number."Dude, where are you? I've been trying to reach you since last night." Emman questioned right away.However, Oliver ignored his rants and shouted in panic. "I'll send you the location! Sunduin mo 'ko! Dal

    When Ruella entered the apartment's door, her temple meets a cold object but she didn't show signs of panic instead she faced the person holding the gun directly."Where is she?"Sierra rolled her eyes and said, "Can't you at least pretend that you're scared of getting killed?""You know I can't unless you bring Dad here and let him point one in my face." She retorted."Well, you might not be scared but," Sierra rebuked, pointing her gun in a different direction. "She is..."Sofia took that as a hint and began shouting."Help! Please help!"Ruella's eyes darted lazily toward her. "You look awful. How much did you use this time?""Bitch! Anong pinagsasabi mo?!" Sofia screamed angrily."Did you finally lose it this time?" Ruella continued to ask. "Oliver's efforts went all in vain, I guess?""Shut up!" Sierra chimes in shouting. "Here's the deal," she said, picking up an envelope from the shelf nearby. "Sign this and I'll let her go!"Ruella swirled around, facing her sister at kinuha n

    Despite the pain in her arm, Sofia managed to get out of Ruella's unit and headed towards the elevator upang tumakas dahil natatakot siyang maaresto ng mga pulis.Ang buong akala niya ay makakaalis na siya kapag tumigil ang elevator ngunit laking gulat niya ng makita ang apat na lalaki.Nakatingin ito parehas sa kanya pagkalabas pa lang ng elevator.Sofia lowered her head in defeat and slumped on the floor while clutching her bleeding arm."Sofia!""Anong nangyari?"Dali-daling lumapit si Emman at Oliver sa kanya habang dinaanan lamang siya ni Tommy at Joseph.Dumiretso ang dalawa sa unit ni Ruella at makalaan pa ang ilang minuto, Tommy went out with Ruella, bleeding in his arms while Joseph was busy talking in his phone.Tumigil ito sa tapat nila at nagsalita kay Sofia. "You dared try to kill her again, don't you? I won't let you off the hook this time!"Sofia shook her head, looking deathly pale. "It... It wasn't me!"Pagkatapos makipag-usap sa telepono, Joseph also approached them,

    Mataas na ang araw ng magising si Oliver at pagtingin pa lamang nito sa kanyang wall clock, bigla siyang napatayo.It was 10 in the morning so he hurriedly searched for his mobile phone to check if he's got a call but he recalled that he intentionally shut it off yesterday.Binuksan niya ito and the notifications began to pour in his phone screen making him speechless at the moment. However, a certain person flashed into his mind, and he became eager to find its name.Tinignan niya ang mga ito ngunit nadismaya siya ng makitang wala siyang natanggap na mensahe galing kay Ruella which made him worried.He was about to call his assistant but his doorbell suddenly took his attention.Thinking that it might be Emman, he went to the door to check and he was surprised to see an unexpected guest standing outside his door.He opened it lazily, welcoming the guy. "What brought you here?" He asked."I'm here to show you something.""Get in." He ushered his guest into his living room before he a

    Mabilis kumalat ang balita tungkol sa naging aksidente at pagkaospital ni Ruella ganun din ang pagkaaresto ni Sofia.Naging usap-usapan ang kanilang nakaraan and the netizens are actively joining the gossip as they found it interesting, causing every platform on social media to go hyped.Ilang oras pa lamang ang nakalipas ng pakawalan ni Tommy ang ebidensya and Sofia was directly sent in the interrogation room with her lawyer for questioning.Sofia tried to deny the charges against her as she stood confident and firm using her lawyer's tricks. However, the person who came to interrogate her was fed up and decided to throw a bomb into their face.Seeing all the evidence laid in front of her, she was rendered speechless as well as her lawyer, and by the end of the day, himas rehas ang dalaga kasama ng mga detainee na ngayo'y nakatitig sa kanya ng masama.Sofia shivered in the corner, bearing the pain in her arm while cursing Sierra in her mind.'Napakatanga ko!

    Oliver refused to believe Ruella's words. Para sa kanya, naghahanap lamang ito ng paraan upang lumayo siya rito which he found amusing."No matter what reasons you throw into my face, you still can't deprive my feelings for you, Rue." Bulong nito sa sarili habang nagmamaneho pabalik ng OLYMPUS.Since ayaw nito makinig sa kanya, naisip nito tumawag kay Don Antonio upang alamin ang totoo and he was ready to whatever he might've heard from him. Pagkarating nito sa kumpanya ay nagtungo agad ito sa kanyang opisina at madaliang hinanap ang isang calling card na nakasukbit sa kanyang journal. Binigay ito ng Don noong nagtungo siya sa masyon at nakipagdeal sa kanya at mariin siyang pinagbawalan na banggitin ito kay Ruella.Nang makita ang kanyang hinahanap, he immediately dialed the number. Tumunog ito ng dalawang beses bago tuluyang sagutin."Young man," Don Antonio greeted in a flat tone."Don Antonio, I want my shares to be put under Ruella's name." He blurted out."What's this fuss all a

    A week later...Ruella in a wheelchair appeared in court facing Sofia restrained in handcuffs. "You might succeed in putting me behind bars but you're coming with me!"Sofia spat through her gritted teeth before she strode towards the defendant's seat.Ruella, displaying an emotionless countenance was wheeled toward her seat as the session began.Oliver, Tommy, and Joseph took different seats in the crowd but their eyes were solely focused on one person who was sitting in front of them with her private nurse by her side.When Sofia's gaze fell on the man she loved, her eyes watered. He didn't even cast her a glance since he arrived and he seemed to gain friendship with those men whom he despised so much in the past.She didn't know how but she was certain whom to blame thus she swore to the bottom of her heart that even if she didn't win the trial, she will bring the woman down with her.Makalipas ang isa't kalahating oras...Napaluha si Sofia ng marinig ang hatol sa kanya."10 years

    In the race track, Ruella was summoned out of her team's private lounge for a quick interview, and out of courtesy for them, she agreed though she hadn't tried facing the camera. Wearing her signature sunglasses, she dragged herself out immediately.A lot of reporters came running as soon as they spotted her coming out. They look trailed and ecstatic at her fully geared-up appearance. She got most men's attention once she stood not far away from the race track.Her long cascading brown hair was blown by the impact of racing cars passing by adding a sense of amazement to everyone. They couldn't take their eyes off her. It was as if they saw a goddess descending from no one knows where."Miss Ventura," One of the reporters began to ask. "Since when did you start showing interest in car racing?"Ruella thought for a while before she answered. "Since I was fifteen."They all gasped, unable to believe her words. One reporter then came forward to ask her another question."The Annual Racing

    "She never said anything about it," Oliver flatly replied. "I don't want to meddle in your affairs right now but you've got to get her as soon as possible," Don Antonio said hurriedly. "Her Aunt was freaking out right now!""Is that Oliver?" He even heard Aurora's loud voice in the background which meant that she was indeed throwing a tantrum. "Tell him to get his wife right now or I'll do it on my own!"Don Antonio sighed helplessly. "You heard her. You've got to hurry before she calls someone else to take her away from that race track!"Holding his phone, Oliver didn't know how to react. From the way Don Antonio speaks, he seems a little scared of Aurora which makes him quite baffled.His mind immediately wondered. 'When did he allow Aurora to boss him around?'After quite some time, Oliver's thoughts became steady again once the line was dropped dead and Emman's confused face came into his view.Startled, he blinked several times before he snarled. "What are you doing?""When are

    Oliver gazed at her in shock. It took him a couple of minutes before he finally managed to ask. "What did you just say?"Ruella's hot tears streamed down her face as she repeated. "I... I am pregnant!"He finally snapped out of it. The next second, he smiled and began kissing her happily."Isn't this good news for us? We're having a baby!" He looked elated in contrast to her melancholic reaction.He was all smiles but his moment of happiness slowly vanished seeing Ruella's endless tears. It was only then that he remembered her question earlier. His expression began changing."Are you telling me that I'm not?" He asked. His expression turned gloomy.Ruella, still crying, nodded and shook her head at the same time.Meanwhile, Oliver was getting confused. He clumsily wiped her tears before he asked. "Rue, I don't understand. Please stop crying and explain it to me clearly."Sniffling, Ruella opened her mouth to speak. "The baby might belong to him or yours, I'm not sure!""What?" Oliver w

    Oliver sensed something odd about her behavior lately but he pushed it aside. He went on comforting her until she eventually calmed down.After quite some time, Ruella finally felt so much better. She closed her eyes and soon drifted to sleep.Meanwhile, Oliver just observed her. He jumped out of her bed slowly after ensuring her breathing became even and went to the balcony. He stood there for quite some time, looking into the distance. No one knew what he was thinking as his face was unreadable.The night has deepened but the lights in the hollow streets shine brightly like the sun, creating a morning glow. The sky turned dark and the wind became chilly followed by a slight drizzle of raindrops.Oliver was immersed in his deep thoughts when the sound of his mobile phone snapped him out of it.It was then he realized, he had been standing there for a long time. Moments later, he went back inside Ruella's room. Shortly after, he received Aurora's phone call stating that they'd stay a

    Ruella rushed to the bathroom and retched everything out. Unbeknownst to her, Oliver followed her immediately."Rue, are you okay?" he asked, sounding worried as he supported her bent form over the toilet.Ruella couldn’t speak; she continued to vomit, feeling as if her intestines were about to come out as well. She had sworn never to experience something like this again, yet here she was, back in the same situation. The difference was that Oliver was now by her side, unlike before.He rubbed her back gently while holding her long hair and grumbled anxiously, "I'll bring you to the doctor!"Ruella was alarmed and instinctively replied, "No!" Wiping her mouth, she looked up at him and forced a weak smile. "I... I'll be fine, Ollie. I'm just not feeling well."She looked pale and exhausted, which worried him even more. He tried to convince her, "Rue, don’t be so stubborn. You can’t afford to be sick at this critical time..."She shook her head adamantly. "That won't be necessary."Dragg

    Ruella didn't know what was running in her father's mind.The words he spoke just now made her uncomfortable, so she quickly stepped in before he uttered other offensive words."Dad," Eyeing her father seriously, she said, stealing his attention from them. "I'd like to have a word with you."Don Antonio raised his eyebrows, amused at her daughter's quick intervention. But noticing Ruella's expression, he pursed his lips and stood up. "Follow me to the study."Ruella and Oliver went up with him leaving Aurora, Philip, and Lily.As soon as the door to the study closed, Ruella promptly occupied the couch followed by Oliver."Dad, where's Sierra?" She confronted. "Haven't I told Tommy to bring you to the island? Why are you still here?"She just recalled that Sierra tried to threaten their father's life a couple of days ago but after that, she lost contact with her. She thought that he might've captured her."I can manage my affairs," He muttered in disapproval. "I ain't too old to run aw

    His heart almost leaped from his chest thinking she might've heard him speaking over the phone."How long have you been there?" Oliver asked nervously.Ruella remained staring at him in silence. Her face was blank, devoid of any emotions.Her stare made him uneasy, but he approached her regardless of how he felt."What's wrong?" His voice immediately softened.Ruella was in fact, in a daze. It may seem like her eyes were focused on Oliver but her mind was elsewhere.She still couldn't believe that she was pregnant. It was like a dream. An impossible dream.At first, she thought that her Aunt Aurora was trying to cheer her up but she was wrong.She showed her the medical results taken overseas in their hospital and she was indeed two months pregnant.She recalled the scene that day.Her blood samples are taken before she undergoes the final test. There were a lot of nurses tending to her which she found a little odd.Moreover, it was very crowded so she argued with the doctor telling h

    In the living room, the atmosphere became chilly.Oblivious to what Ruella talked about with her Aunt upstairs, Oliver settled down on the couch across from the three persons.He noticed that each had different expressions plastered on their faces.The woman, he assumed to be the doctor, Victor discussed with him over the phone was busy taking notes to God knows what. However, her expression was a little strange after looking at Ruella for quite some time.Aurora's husband had his sharp gaze aimed in Don Antonio's direction and the same goes for the latter as if they were planning to stab each other any moment from now.Men are protective when it comes to their territories which was quite reasonable for Don Antonio but looking at Philip, Oliver suddenly felt curious, wondering why he was looking at him with such hatred in his eyes.As he waited, Philip finally broke his silence."I didn't know that Mr. Ventura was capable of ruining a crowned princess's life. If I had known you'd fail

    Under her scrutinizing gaze, Oliver felt nervous."Why would you think of that?" He asked trying to be nonchalant.Her stare made him feel slightly uncomfortable. It was like she wanted to drill holes all over his face, and man, he wasn't good at lying, but he couldn't tell her about everything yet for fear that she might get mad at him.Ruella seized him up and down several times. Seeing his facial hair intact and perfectly trimmed, she asked. "You look more mature than before. What's with the beard?"Oliver thought that she might've been suspicious of him for talking too much thus he tried to refrain himself a little.Pushing aside his nervousness, he suddenly grinned, asking. "Does this look better on me?"Ruella didn't dwell on it too much and just nodded. "Not bad."Oliver felt relieved. Then he leads her downstairs to eat the sumptuous meals he prepared for her.Moments later, after finishing their meals, Ruella stood up from her chair."I need to go home," she announced. "Sierra
