Chapter 77

Regrets of being a Valestine

None of them expect Gavin to be the first one to accept Noah Valestine in their clan among them. He was the one who kept doubting Noah and who hated Noah's presence. They all know him well. He really doesn't trust people that quickly.

There was Gavin, offering his bare hand to Noah as he was kneeling in front of them. Larisa has no words. She was only watching Gavin in front of her cousin just like all of them. They were in awe of how Noah begged them to take him in, but Gavin's sudden response shocked them more.

"Get up," Gavin uttered blankly as he sighed. He even looked up and prevented Noah's surprised eyes at him. "In this clan, we don't make a person kneel to us." He added.

Joy—that was what Larisa felt while staring at Noah who was still crying. She just found herself bursting into silent tears. Gabe quickly went beside her and caressed her back. Noah looked at Gavin's hand before he slowly accepted it as tears continued to escape from

    Chapter 78Feels like a goodbye"Do you think Larisa would be fine?" Noah asked Leo who was with him. He couldn't help but to feel anxious when they are not coming back yet."First, Gabe won't let your father lay his finger on her. Second, you should be the one who knows Larisa more. She will never step back to your father," Leo answered as he chuckled. He never gets anxious in situations like this. Leo knows that Larisa will definitely scare Gabriel Valestine by just looking at him. "Yeah, that's right." He uttered as he breathed out. "What are those?" He asked when he saw all the drawings of the designs for the engagement."Oh, it's for their engagement. Gabe's parents couldn't wait anymore so they decided to make a move now without waiting for Gabe and Larisa." "They like Larisa so much for Gabe, don't they?" Noah commented and chuckled. "The first time they saw her, they already liked her for him." Leo replied. Larisa captivated them that easily for Gabe. "Next time, don't le

She's in front of the vanity while staring at herself, stunning with her red off-shoulder gown. It was silk, as always. The dagger that Noah gave her was in her grip. For some reason, she feels anxious. Why does it feel like something bad will happen? Her heart was pounding aloud in nervousness. But she knew that she was not nervous to face all the people. She was nervous about something that she couldn't figure out. "What's the matter?" Gabe then showed in front of the mirror, staring at her. "Nothing," she replied and forced a tiny smile. "I know you well, Larisa." Gabe said as he blew out a deep sigh. "I don't know. I feel nervous…I feel like something not good will happen," she said and shook her head. "Maybe because every time we celebrate something, an incident always happens." Gabe said and chuckled. He's right. Everytime they celebrate so

Everyone began to panic again as the Valestine attacked on their engagement day. The sound of gunshots was echoing, filling the entire place. The Clybornes are now holding their guns, exchanging bullets with the Valestine who were now trying to escape from them. "You fvcking assh*le," Amber uttered firmly with rage from her eyes when she was able to shoot Gabriel Valestine on his shoulder. She was shivering in anger. How can he kill his own son? There was Larisa, her world suddenly turned slow. Beyond the chaos and different screams from the people around her, it seems like she couldn't hear anything. Her world was shattering into a million pieces while Noah was on the ground, covered with his own blood that was spreading on the floor. She was indeed lost for words. Her mind was not functioning. She feels like a deaf when she can't hear anything. "N-Noah," she c

Her heart was aching so much, longing for him. "She has been holding that dagger," Leo mentioned to David. There are a lot of people who are coming to sympathize with them. Larisa was in front of Noah's coffin, crying in silence. "Noah gave it to her. I just heard from Gabe," Amber intervened as she sat with them at the back. They have been talking with all the visitors who are paying their respect and condolences. "Noah used to throw that dagger to them before," Amber added with a tiny bitter smile on her lips. Looking at Noah's picture on the top of his coffin breaks her. She remembers his short memories with her. "He was shot four times," David mentioned with anger that couldn't be hidden from his voice. He hates himself for not being able to stop the danger."His father was so cruel," Leo added. "You know what I'm sc

Today is the day to say goodbye to Noah. Larisa was still in awe. She never stopped from crying in front of his coffin. If Noah is alive, he would definitely hate seeing Larisa cries like this. "Are you ready?" Gabe asked Larisa who was only looking at Noah's picture on top of his coffin. Her eyes were crying as if those were already immune. She shed all those tears as she took a heavy deep breath, calming herself to be able to deliver her eulogy. "Tell me if you can't do it," Amber said and held her hand. "I got this," she uttered and nodded. As she stood up, all their eyes went at her. She stood in front of them in the middle, holding the dagger that Noah gave her. Just by looking at it makes her cry that quickly. "As you all know, I am Larisa Valestine—yes, Noah and I were Valesti

    Chapter 83A warSince they buried Noah, the sky never came back to its natural color. Larisa was sitting on the balcony of her room, hugging the picture frame of Noah who already passed away. Her eyes were locked in the sky with its sad and heavy color. It seemed like it was about to rain again. Maybe the sky feels what she feels—her grief, sorrows, and rage. She's anguished and she has no idea until when she will be like this. "Larisa," David called as he went to her room, holding the tray filled with food. He sighed when she didn't even look back at him after calling her name. She remained sitting there without moving a bit as if she didn't hear him calling her.David began to walk behind her. That was when he saw that she was only looking in the sky with her teary eyes. Her eyes were already swollen from crying endlessly. Seeing her like this weighs his mind as well. "You didn't join us for lunch. Gabe told you to eat, right?" He uttered normally as he began to serve the food on

She doesn't remember when was the last time she had her nails done. But it was when she was still in the clan of the Valestine. The designs of her nails were already ruined and Gabe just happened to notice it. "I know how to do it. Don't you trust Gabe Clyborne?" He asked arrogantly, full of himself. She couldn't help but to smirk at him. "I don't care about my nails. It's not that important to think about everything that's happening," she uttered and smiled bitterly. "Do you want to go to nail salon, then?" He asked, in case she wants to go there. It will help her a bit to distract her from the pain that has been drowning her after Noah died. "No," she replied. "I don't feel like interacting with other people yet," she added, following it with a deep sigh. "Come on, let me do it." He began to paint her nails with that nude cuticle. Gabe was real

Larisa smiled the softest as his mother praised her. "Are you nervous?" She asked. Well, she could tell it by her face. "I am," she replied. Her heart was drumming heavily. It feels like she's a student who was being asked by her own teacher about a certain topic in the class. Her hands were cold. How is she gonna walk on the aisle? What should she do inside once she sets foot? She was indeed agitated and overthinking about many things. "You know what, every bride feels like that. But you know what you should just think of once you enter the church?" She asked with a lovely smile. "Remember how you met him. Remember how your story began. Remember all those happy memories that you've spent with him and remember how the two of you overcame all the problems that you encountered along the way," his mother look

She got justice in her own hands for her family and for Noah. All of a sudden, she just felt feeble as if she was able to release all the rage. "Larisa!" It was David. The moment he sat foot inside the abandoned place, he saw the different blood of the Valestine around. And there was Lucinda Valestine in front of Larisa, lifeless. The gun from his hand fell from his grip. He quickly ran towards Larisa who was bent in her knees. "Are you okay?" He asked. She didn't speak. Only a tiny smirk drew on her lips. "I killed them," she uttered. "But even if I do, I cannot still see my parents…my family that they killed," she mentioned with bitterness and pain. "David," Gabe called. "Leo," he simply said. He quickly stood up and ran towards them a bit far from Larisa. "Hey, you okay?" David asked Leo. "I am," he utte

Larisa kept walking repeatedly while trying to ponder a lot. Estevan was talking with the IT men. While Gabe and Gavin were talking about where they could possibly bring his parents. "There's nothing in the car. They didn't leave anything that we can use to track them," Estevan said as he took a heavy breath. "B*llsh*t," Gabe cursed, was near to hit the wall with his fist. "Where could they possibly bring them?" Larisa mumbled to herself while walking endlessly, thinking of all the places that the Valestine used to do their transactions. "Can you stop? You look like Gabe when he's anxious," Gavin commented, annoyed by her. "Shut up. I'm trying to remember all the places that the Valestine used to use," she replied and continued walking there as if that was helping her to figure it out. "They are putting an end to this," Ambe

"What should I do? I only know how to bake. Would you be fine eating sweets everyday when we get married?" They both laughed with that thought. "I can cook, you don't have to worry." He said while shaking his head. Larisa looked at the time on her wrist watch. "You said your parents are on their way here, right?" She asked with her brows crossed. "Yeah. Dad told me that my Mom bought a lot of things for you," he mentioned. "What? She's spoiling me," Larisa commented unbelievably. She really treats her like her real daughter. "You know her. She really likes you," Gabe replied with a tiny smile before he stole a kiss from her soft lips."Where are they? They are taking too long," she uttered, and could not help but to wonder."Maybe it's just traffic. You know this country," he took a heavy breath as i

All the customers were also watching it, how Larisa Castellan took over the properties that actually belonged to her. "It's just a little revenge," David uttered as he stood up beside him. There was the Valestine, avoiding the cameras that were taking their photos. "I can't even go to the hospital and visit Amber, I'm too weak for that." Leo said and took a deep breath as he continued to serve the orders. "I heard she's not in good condition. One of the men told me that she almost died earlier, but she still fought hard to live." David discussed. Just like them, they are also worried. But all they can do is to wait and stand by until Larisa makes her move."Do you think Larisa really plans to kick them out that quick?" Leo asked while Bea and Nathan were busy. "Of course not. She probably just did it because of what happened to Amber," David replied,

Since the incident happened, Estevan didn't leave his wife's side anymore. He stayed there beside her, talking to her while holding her hand and planted kisses on it. "I was actually delighted that you were the first person I always see when I woke up from those incidents we've been through before," Larisa uttered as she took a deep sigh along with a small soft smile that flashed on her lips. Gabe reached her hand and held it tightly. "I know what he feels, I've been there." He uttered with a small smile as he turned back his eyes at Estevan inside the room. "Do you know what I always felt during those days that I was waiting for you to wake up?" He asked and glanced at her. "I felt like my world was collapsing. It feels like I'm gonna lose my mind if I lose you," he replied with a weak smile. "You were scared," she said. Gabe simply nodded at her. "

A lot of what ifs are pouring in her head. She was still stained with Amber's blood but she never wants to leave her side. "Amber Clyborne, she's my wife. Where is she?" Her eyes were captured as soon as he heard Estevan's anxious and frightened voice as he asked the nurse about her wife."Larisa!" Gavin exclaimed aloud that his voice almost echoed in the hospital. Their eyes all went at her who was standing in front of the operating room, shivering. When her eyes found Gabe, the weakness that she has been holding back for Amber finally filled her out. "What happened?" Gavin asked immediately. But before Larisa could even answer him, Gabe quickly pulled her towards him and locked her in his arms. He knows—he knows those eyes of hers. He can tell just by looking at her eyes what she feels. That is how Gabe Clyborne

"Did Amber reply?" She asked. "No. Maybe she's still busy shopping," Estevan uttered. She washed her hands on her face in frustration. "Where's that mall?" Larisa asked. "The only mall here in this city," Gavin answered instead. Larisa quickly stood up and was about to leave them behind. "Where are you going?" Gabe asked. "I'll follow her," she said. "Hey, calm down. Nothing's going to happen. My men are with her," Estevan said, making her calm. But then, her instincts tell her something that is bothering her. "Estevan, your wife is pregnant. How can you be calm there? The Valestine can quickly kill your men!" She exclaimed with frustration. They all became silent, especially Estevan. Larisa took a heavy breath and cooled herself down.

She kept her gun on her grip tightly, pointing it at Larisa. They were cornered. It was when she realized that Larisa anticipated it all. She was only waiting for them to come and she was too dumb to decide recklessly again. "We retrieve, Lucinda." Yna uttered, glaring at them. "I will wipe off that fvcking smile of yours," Candice said firmly before they slowly retrieve and leave her cake shop. Larisa watched them leave with a smirk. "You were right," Estevan said.
