Capturing Cinderella (English Version) Chapter 30: Away
Nathalia’s POVI woke up feeling light and as if I were still on cloud nine. Even though I hadn’t caught Stephen this morning, it was alright. I anticipated that he would leave early again.I woke up with a smile before getting up and peering out of the window. I warmly greeted the mafia guards stationed outside the mansion.“Good morning!”They looked up at me and nodded. “Good morning, Madame!”I chuckled at their formality. I left the window and quickly got ready for the day. Before heading out, I visited Belen, who was busy watering the plants in the garden.“You seem happy today. I hope you’ll always be this smiling,” she said, taking my hand and giving it a gentle tap.I nodded. “Exactly. Let’s have dinner together again tonight, shall we?”“You really are such a child. Now go, or you might be late for your class.”I looked down at my watch. There was only half an hour left before my first class.I bid her goodbye and left in a hurry, heading towards where my car was parked.How

Third Person’s POVMERRILY drinking in a private room of a concealed casino, Jonathan Dela Cruz and Cris Fuentebella are enjoying themselves. The two of them are the heads of the Dela Cruz and Fuentebella Mafias. They are the last remaining group that continues to strategize in order to overthrow the Anderson Mafia and its allies.“I’m sure the fish in the sea have feasted well on the mangled bodies of Anderson and his sycophantic friends. They fell for my trap without knowing it. I thought they were smart. But they themselves paved the way to make their lives easier,” Jonathan proudly said before raising his shot glass.Cris, his companion, did the same. They clinked their two glasses together, creating a loud sound, before simultaneously downing the contents. Their respective men stood quietly behind them.“They probably think we’re unaware that they’re monitoring us. Luckily, I managed to hide quickly.” Cris adjusted his seat before putting down his glass.Jonathan nodded in agreem

Nathalia’s POV“Are you sure you won’t come inside? Just when I finally decided to bring you along, now you don’t want to come in.”Cole raised an eyebrow. “I’m fine right here, Madame. You rarely get to spend time with your parents, after all. It’s better to make the most of the time you have together.”I smiled at him. We were currently in front of the restaurant owned by my family. I was about to leave the university earlier when I received a call from Liam. He said that Mom wanted to see me and also wanted me to join them for a meal.It’s been a long time since I last saw them, and I just can’t help but feel excited. That’s why I quickly told Cole to head here.“Alright. Maybe we won’t stay too long.”“Just take your time, Madame. Feel free to call me if any issues arise.”I just nodded at him before turning around and starting to walk into the restaurant. I was warmly greeted by the guard and even our branch manager, Mr. Villafuente.“Long time no see, Ma’am Nathalia.”“Likewise.

“Auntie, come on. Nathalia is still studying. Let her finish her education first,” Liam countered.Mom shook her head. “That’s okay! They’re already married, and she’s of the right age. She could take a semester off if need be.” She even gave me a pointed look.I couldn’t believe we were just sitting there staring at her. I silently wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole.I let out a sigh of relief when we didn’t continue discussing that topic as we finished our meal. After paying our respects to Mr. Villafuente and the other staff, we left the restaurant. Cole was quick to greet me outside.I couldn’t help but feel a sense of sadness. It might be a while before I see them again.I forced a smile when I faced them. “When will we meet again?”Mom gently caressed my cheek. Her eyes were teary, but I knew she was holding back from letting her tears fall completely.“When everything is alright, sweetie.”I looked at her in confusion. “What do you mean?”“When the right time

Nathalia’s POVNearly thirty minutes have passed since I arrived back at the mansion. But until now, I still couldn’t believe what I discovered.“Ouch! Slow down! Let me do it.”Mads was trying to wrestle the ice pack from Damon’s hand. He was applying it to the bruise on his face.I couldn’t help but wince. I felt bad for what happened to Mads. Her smooth face was marred now. If only I had known it was her behind that mask, I would have bravely intervened before she got punched.“No. Just stay still. Don’t move,” Damon said authoritatively before continuing his task. His face was filled with concern.I suddenly recalled what happened earlier, during the first time he witnessed what happened to Mads. Even though the enemy was already down due to the way I repeatedly struck him with a rock, he didn’t stop kicking and punching until his face was unrecognizable.It was the very first time I saw Damon rage like a fire. Even I felt a pang of fear from him. If Mads hadn’t stopped him, that

The cold breeze brushed against my skin. I shivered a little as I had no jacket on, but I didn’t mind.I took a deep breath before gently tracing Mom’s engraved name on the tombstone and then Dad’s. I shifted my gaze to both of their graves.“Mom, Dad. I’m really confused. I don’t know why, but I feel like Stephen is connected to my past. If by any chance he was part of the group that attacked us before, I hope he wasn’t. Because if that were the case, I don’t know what I would do.”It was Saturday, and I decided to visit my late parents. I had a lot of questions for them, too. They knew about my past, which I still couldn’t remember.But no matter how many times I asked them, I knew I wouldn’t get any answers. So, I secretly prayed that maybe I would meet someone—just one person who was part of that past—to tell me more about what happened back then. Someone who could shed light on the events.I forced a smile. “But don’t worry about me. I’m in good hands. I have kind people taking c

Third Person’s POVACE AND SHANTEL both cursed under their breath as they arrived at the mansion, only to be greeted by scattered corpses outside its premises.“What the hell just happened here?” Shantel exclaimed, her disbelief evident.“It looks like someone beat us to it and had the same intentions,” Ace remarked, signaling the team to secure the entire mansion.“Carefully inspect the surroundings, including the bodies. There might be some who escaped or are still alive.”His team nodded before swiftly dispersing. Meanwhile, Shantel instructed her own team members to explore the dense area at the back of the mansion. It was a challenging task, as there might still be lurking enemies around.Once everyone had taken their positions, Ace and Shantel cautiously entered the mansion. They gripped their firearms and remained vigilant as they scanned their surroundings.Even inside the mansion, there were scattered corpses. Both of them winced, unable to ignore the stench that filled the a

Third Person’s POVNATHALIA still couldn’t believe what she saw in the photo. So, she picked up the fallen photo album once again, and with trembling hands, she looked at the pictures inside one by one.She felt as though her breath was being taken away when she saw that she was included in all the photos. Even though she couldn’t remember the children she was with there, she was certain that Stephen and his friends were among them.She bit her lower lip as she noticed that the young Mads, Damon, Harold, and Albert were also with them in the pictures. She had visited their house a few times and seen some of their childhood photos. Thus, she couldn’t be mistaken.“What the hell? What’s their connection to a past I can’t remember?” she quietly questioned in her mind.She blinked and tried to hold back the tears from escaping her eyes. She quickly closed the photo album and held it tightly.She needs to hide this one until Stephen comes back. That way, he won’t have a chance to avoid her

Capturing Cinderella (English Version) Epilogue
TYLER woke up to the sound of his wife’s loud scream. He jolted out of bed and quickly searched for Sabrina with his eyes. He saw her lying on the floor, clutching her belly and wincing in pain. He rushed to her side immediately.“Wifey, what happened? What’s hurting?” he asked anxiously. However, his words caught in his throat as he noticed liquid flowing down her legs.“My water broke! I think I’m in labor, hubby!” She held onto his arm tightly. Her nails dug into his skin, but he paid them no mind.Tyler was at a loss for what to do. He had been about to grab their prepared items, but her screams continued to fill the room. He carefully lifted her into his arms and quickly headed out of the room. They had been sleeping in a room on the first floor for ease of access in case she suddenly went into labor.They were met by a startled Salome, who was still wiping her hands, probably from doing the dishes.“What happened? I heard Sabrina scream loudly,” she asked, her eyes moving down t

SABRINA couldn’t help but laugh when she noticed her husband’s sullen face. Today marks their second wedding anniversary. But it seems like it’s been hit by a stroke of bad luck. “Hey. You have nothing to worry about because we can still celebrate our anniversary tonight.” She cheered him up.Tyler let out a deep sigh before walking over to her and wrapping both of his arms around her waist.“I can’t help it. We are supposed to be celebrating already right at this moment. But suddenly, there was a problem in the company. Why does it have to happen on this day of all days?”She gently stroked his arm. “Let it be. What’s important is that we sort out the issue first. We can celebrate anytime.”He snorted before kneeling down and kissing her stomach.“Baby, just wait for Daddy, okay? Just behave there, alright? Don’t give Mommy a hard time. I love the both of you,” he said to their child.Tears welled up in Sabrina’s eyes. She never imagined that such a day would come. “We love you more

SABRINA blinked as she looked at herself in the mirror; she had no idea what was happening. It had only been a few minutes since Tyler left earlier, and she was taken aback when David suddenly appeared at the mansion’s door, accompanied by well-known stylists. Some of them she had even worked with before.“Wait. You still haven’t told me who sent you here or what kind of event I will be attending. Why don’t I know anything about it? I haven’t received any invitation,” she wondered aloud to the stylists.At first, she thought that her manager, Josefa, had accepted a project for her without consulting her. But when she called him earlier, he said there were none.“Just wait and see later, mamsh. For now, just sit back and relax,” said the makeup artist in a playful tone.She didn’t speak anymore and just let them continue with their work. When she tried calling her husband, his phone was turned off. So, for now, she will trust David. She’s known the man for a long time, so she knows he’

TYLER was engrossed in reading the report sent to him by Rodel when, suddenly, his car came to a halt. He was hesitant to send his friend back to work, but he was insistent.He closed his eyes and gently massaged his temples before setting down the tablet he was holding and getting out of the car. The sound of the strong waves greeted his ears from the nearby sea that was right in front of him. Because the sun was still scorching, he accepted the shades handed to him by his assistant and friend, David.“Your ex’s chosen location is pretty nice, huh? Going for the seaside restaurant vibe?” David chuckled humorlessly.Tyler looked at his friend with an expressionless face. While Rodel was quiet during work hours, his assistant David was the opposite—noisy and playful.“Shut up. Why haven’t you found a woman to love yet? So, you won’t be messing with my love life and bothering me,” he retorted, exasperated.David winced. “Man, I’ve seen enough of what you and Rodel went through because o

SABRINA remained in a daze, trying to comprehend Tyler’s words. Ever since their child disappeared, he has reverted to treating her coldly.But she understood him. What she couldn’t accept was the accusation he made against her a few weeks ago, right after they returned to the mansion from the hospital. He claimed that she deliberately and willingly allowed what happened because she wasn’t ready to have a child.She felt as if her husband had stomped on her heart, shattering it into pieces with the sharpness of his words. He didn’t even consider that it was also her child that they lost. She carried that child within her, even if it was for a short time. Above all else, she too experienced the pain of losing their baby. However, she couldn’t properly grieve because of Tyler’s cold treatment of her.After a few minutes, she finally recovered from her shock. She never imagined that her husband’s actions would lead to such a decision.With a sudden idea forming in her mind, she gently sq

TYLER raised the beer bottle he was holding before letting out a loud cheer. In the past few weeks, the bar had become like his second home, as he spent more time there than in his mansion.“Cheers!” he said before taking a big gulp from the bottle.“Ty, you’re drunk. We’ll take you home,” his assistant David intervened.“Yeah, that’s right. And Sabrina might be looking for you. It's already late, huh? I’m sure your wife is getting worried,” his secretary, Rodel, said as he tidied up the scattered empty beer bottles from the floor and gathered them on the table.Tyler shook his head and shrugged off David’s hand, who was trying to stop him, before looking at Rodel.“You should go home. Your wife needs you, especially since she just gave birth. You’re supposed to be enjoying your leave. I’m sorry for bothering you,” he insisted, shooing Rodel away.“You didn’t really bother me. Besides, Mayen’s older sibling is at home right now, so she has some company. But my wife would scold me if I

SABRINA posed gracefully, looking serious as she gazed at the camera. Today will be her final photo shoot before she completely leaves the modeling world. She didn’t want to create any major issues, so she aimed to quietly bid farewell to the world she had grown accustomed to.It had been a week since she and Tyler visited the obstetrician for a check-up. The doctor mentioned that her pregnancy was delicate, but they prescribed her vitamins and medication to support the baby’s development.“That’s it. Now, lay down slightly on the couch with your legs crossed and look in front of the camera with your parted lips. Give us your fierce look,” the photographer instructed.She immediately followed the photographer’s instructions. She carefully made her way and laid her body down slightly on the couch. She was wearing high heels. Despite not wanting to, she didn’t have any other choice. Besides, it was the last one anyway.From the corner of her eyes, she saw the manager attentively watchin

TYLER let out a frustrated curse when his assistant, David, showed him the pictures on his cellphone. He never thought that a picture of him and Tanya lurking at the bar a month ago would actually leak out.He stood up abruptly and slammed his hand on the table. “Find out who took those photos. Make sure they don’t spread any further,” he demanded, his jaw clenching as he looked at his assistant. “You already know what to do.”David nodded, “Yes, sir.” He excused himself before quickly leaving Tyler’s office.Tyler swiftly organized his things. Even though he hadn’t received a call from Sabrina about her photo shoot, he was determined to go to her immediately. He wouldn’t allow her to see those pictures. He didn’t want anything to upset her during this crucial time for both of them and their unborn child.Tyler practically flew his car to the restaurant where he left Sabrina earlier. When he arrived, he hurriedly went inside and looked for his wife.“Tyler!”He looked back to where th

SABRINA reached for Tyler’s hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. Her husband was frowning, and she didn’t want to leave him while he was still upset, especially since they had just recently reconciled.“Do you still really need to go to work? I can talk to your manager, even the other companies you’re contracted with. For sure, they’ll understand once they find out that you’re pregnant,” he said with a mixture of irritation and concern in his voice.She released a deep sigh. “I can still handle it, you know. Besides, I plan to finish my other pending commitments while my baby bump isn’t too noticeable yet. Once I’m done with everything, I’ll finally take a break. I’ll also talk to Jose about that later,” she assured him.At that moment, he turned to look at her. “Fine. But please be careful, okay?” He held her hand tightly, as if not wanting to let her go.“I will,” she replied. She leaned in and planted a tender kiss on his lips before finally saying goodbye and getting out of the car.
