Tears just fall in my eyes terrifiedly. I can't hold it back from falling.
I spent a long time preparing everything for my wedding with Lucas. But I can't imagine in one moment everything was gone. It was like a bubble that suddenly popped up from my sight. I can't imagine that everything was a terrible nightmare. It hurts and very painful in my heart. I almost jumped for a joy when our wedding started. But suddenly everything became miserable. Suddenly the joy in my heart grabbed. I grabbed the gown from my side and hugged it in my chest. I just sobbed from mourning. I can't accept that was happened to me. I've already changed my gown since mom left me here in my room while ago. She left me just to dressed down herself. After I hugged my gown. I watched it for awhile. The gown would have been beautiful and splendid but it was wasted now. Suddenly I remembered the moments with Lucas. The times when we were together in the dress shop just for fitting this wedding gown. After I looked the gown I put it aside. I feel sorry but I have to keep this gown away. "I'm sorry my precious gown." as I caressed it. I cannot bring back the all things behind. It's really sad. I can't get back the people who trusted. They are the witness how bad I am. How much Lucas's mom hated me. I stood up and wiped my tears away. I rubbed my eyes softly. I'm worried about Lucas. I know he is in trouble now. I know he is regretting now. I know he is in pain. I picked up my phone from the side of my bed. When I opened it. Our picture suddenly appeared on the screen. It's a wallpaper on my phone screen. Lucas hugged me as we smiled at each other. The sweetness of Lucas's smile remain while looking at the camera. This picture was taken when we went at the beach. Lucas carried me there to have a pictorial in our wedding day. I suddenly imagined the moments that Lucas was chasing me on the beach. We were just so happy at that time. We plays and have fun. Laughing to each other while playing. I treasured those moments with him at the same time. I wished those times would never end with us. I hope Lucas and I will always be together. Those moments full of memories. Even the seconds I spent with him I won't pass by. I just want to stop the world just to be with him. Without realizing some tears fell down on my screen. I've been staring at the picture for half an hour. I became too emotional. I felt like something sharp knife pierced in my heart. It's really hurts! The pain I feel now is beyond compare the memories we cherished before. This was an impact when our wedding definitely becomes tragic. A message suddenly appeared on the screen of my phone. A message from Lucas. I immediately checked the message. He want me to go on the company? He want me to talk right now? I don't even know why he didn't call? He just sent a messaged at me. But somehow. I'm happy with that. At least he made my heart feel glad. I left the room to go to the Vontrell company. I have to go there to meet him. I need to talk to him to clear everything. "Iris! Where are you going?" I was about to leave the living room when mom called me behind. So I almost stopped from walking. "I'm going out... Hmm. I'm going to the Vontrell company building. Lucas need me there. He want me to go there." I answered. I want to look back to my mom but I keep my eyes in my direction. I'm still standing on the doorway. I never turn back my eyes with my mom. I just want to wait for what she has to say about. I remain standing and emotionless. I was cold. I felt mom let out a heavy breath behind me. "He told to you to go there?" I know mom want to make sure everything about me. I have to tell her the truth. "Y-yes mom... He want me to go there... I need to clear everything with him." I answered hesitantly. "What are you going to talk about?" Mom asked behind. I know mom is just standing behind me and she is watching me as now. "I don't know! He didn't tell me yet." I answered coldly. The pain still remain in my weak heart. I feel I was dying now. I was not in a good condition to be glad. "He will make sure that he never hurt you. Because I'll be the one to be there to make his life terrible. I will never recognized him when he hurt you Iris." I know mom just wants to protect me as now. That's why she said those words to protect me. I know until now. Mom is still angry with the Vonteros family because of what happened. She never forget that. This is the time for me to fix everything. Lucas and I will fix the mess. I know it only two of us can fix this problem. "I will go there mom. I thought Lucas never hurt me again. Don't worry! We will just fix the mess." I felt mom let out a heavy breath. She remained standing behind me. She didn't steps towards me. "It should be. Because if something happens to you there. I will go there to hurt them. I will not recognize them as our partner in the company." I understand why mom said those words. I know she will protect me in that way. She really love me so much as her only daughter. I know mom loves me very much. So she will do everything just to protect her daughter. To keep me out from trouble. Afterwards. I left the mansion. I need to meet Lucas in the Vontrell company. I know he is waiting me there. Hoping he was not angry with me. I hope he will accept me again. I know Lucas love me very much. He can't live without me. He still want to talk to me even though we don't understand each other. I miss him so much. His being clingy man. I want to feel again the way he stares at me. The moments he hugs me. The time that he kiss me slowly, and stared me coldly. I feel I was melted. I miss all those moments with him.I immediately reached him when I got to the company. He needs to talk to me right now. Now we are here on the rooftop of the Vontrell building. The Vontrell company is one of the leading companies in the country. The name of the company is Vontrell that was given of our grandfathers when they built it at the very first time. The company name was taken from our last name. That was Vontrell Company from the last name of Vontero and Montrell families. Lucas and I have that last name. But now our grandfathers are gone. They are long dead behind. But now Lucas and I are still managed this company for the future. We work together for this company to continue what's our grandfathers started before. Lucas only stares in his direction as he was standing now near from me. He has no intention to turn his head with me. I was just standing near to him. It seemed one meter away from him. I watched him carefully but he is very cold as dead in my eyes. Instead he talk to me now he was still s
I don't know how many more seconds I should spend for Lucas. I want him to believe with me but I was failed.I know he has a touching heart. I know Lucas has feelings to feel me on this way. I know he feels the way I suffered now.In the past few years he truly loved me. The time we spent to each other is not easy. The ups and down we faced. It's really hard to let go the things we had."I met you to fix everything. But this is what I got from you Lucas? I can't imagine how you hates me?"I just bowed down my head and I couldn't lift my eyes just to face him. My heartbeat was struggling at my chest.Myself will vanish in his sight. I'm not acting just to have him mercy on me. I really can't do it."Watch your words Iris. You don't love me at the very first. Because if you truly love me? You did the right thing, right?" he let out a heavy breath.My chest even more tighten in pain. I can't breathe anymore. I feel I was dying."You made me toyed on this way. So don't say that you love m
"Lucas! Don't leave me, please! I love you!" I scream his name just to stop him from leaving. Lucas couldn't even look at his back to care someone he has left behind. He continued from walking away. I was crying and begging to him just stay but I was too late to do that. I feel my knees trembled down. My eyes become teary. The man I love the most was left me like a dog. I know he was did it because he was been hurts. Instead he understand my situation he hardened his heart. He no longer care about me. Lucas! I know you feel the same way what I feel. I know you have a heart! I feel that you love me very much. Listen to your heart my man and follow your feelings. Don't let your anger rule over you! I don't understand what's going on with me? I was crying while sitting on the pavement. I feel like I'm getting crazy. I don't care what others says about. My heart has a pure intention to love him enough. I can't play his heart on this way. Even if I tell the truth again he won't be
I simply wiped my tears away that rolled down at my cheeks. I couldn't help myself but I have to cry on.They didn't understand my situation. People insulting all the time. They can do nothing but ruin my image."Oh! My best friend! It's good that you came. I've been waiting here in your office for a while. I miss you my friend."Ann's eyes narrowed as she saw me. Her lips suddenly curves while looking at me.She's sad because she had no one to talk about. Actually, her life is really boring without me."Why do you look like that? Are you crying?"Ann saw my eyes from crying. So she asked why I look like this?She is Annie. My only best friend. I called her Ann for short. We just met today because I came here to my office.Actually, she is my personal assistant here. She's my behalf. She comes to my office just for her works.I trust her with everything in my office. Since she is a trustworthy person I have.I feel comfortable with her. She always listen with my problems. She knows ev
"Lucas! Let's talk about this. I want to talk to you even if it's just for a few seconds, please! I'm begging you!"I couldn't help myself anymore so I went to his office. Lucas is here. I want to talk to him to fix everything.I can't bear the pain inside my chest. I don't care if he still hates me now. I just want to clear everything for this chance.I looked into his eyes. Anger was burning in his face. His flaring gazes almost harsh me.I went here just to talk to him... But I thought he was not interested. He doesn't care about my opinions.He was about to leave me but I grabbed his hand to stop him from leaving. He will leave me like a dog.I have no other wish but to talk to the person I love. I want to fix the problem what we started.I know we are the only ones who can fix this. If Lucas listens to his heart we will solve this.I believe we can fix this in a good way without blaming each other. He sighed with anger.I know Lucas has changed. But I believed that his feelings f
"Now you're begging to me because of what you did Iris. You didn't even think before you did that thing?"Lucas just kept standing before me. I heard him letting out some heavy breaths after he yelled at me. Even though his words that coming out from him was so hurted me. I am willing to accept that. As long as I can prove to him that I did not as bad as he thinks about."Because of what you did? My image was ruined to the people who trusted with me. I'm always asking to myself why you did it for me Iris? My identity was ruined in the entire of the company." he yelled at me.I simply wiped the tears that forming on my eyes. I felt my knees weaken where I stood up. I can't stop my tears from falling."Until now. I still carry the ashamedness 'cause of what you did. It had a big impact on my character when you stole the company's wealth."I always wanted to make him understand me but he could not make it. He still won't believe.A large amount of money has entered into my bank account.
I couldn't stop the tears from falling down into my cheeks. I watching myself to the mirror as I cry now.I didn't expect that the person I love would still help me. Lucas will still help me even though he hates me. I can't believe that he would do it for me. Despite all. He still has mercy on me. He still has a good heart to find a way to fix everything.After I wiped the tears from my cheeks. I fixed myself. I need to do this for those who hates me.As I know. Everyone will attend to the meeting. I know that Lucas has prepared everything for the Vontrell company meeting.I grabbed my handbag from the sink, then I left the bathroom.I have to go to the meeting place as early as possible. I know they are waiting for me there. I know Lucas also waiting for me now. I entered the meeting room quietly. My eyes immediately searched him. I still want to see him even if he hates me.He's here and he's wearing a business attire. He is handsome in his black tuxedo. He almost not changed when
I'm willing to be a fool again and again. Until Lucas learns to love me back the man who hates me so much.I know the things we did yesterday was matter to him. I know I'm special person in his life too.I can't believe he throws away everything we shared. Lucas couldn't do that. I know him very well.I know he's just harden his heart to me. But despite all he loves me. I know he still has feelings with me as before. He kept it secretly with himself "I know you hates me Lucas. But my heart knows how much I love you! I always love you! I hope you could understand me."His eyes narrowed in anger. His lips were also curved.His eyes also flares as he looked at me. He sighed deeply.He let out a heavy breath from his lungs because of the anger in his chest."You know Iris! Stop being fool for me, okay! Because no matter what you do I will never love you again. I hate you."He yelled at me, so I looked down at his chest. He became speechless."Whatever you says about me Lucas. I will acce
Iris's POVI rubbed my little eyes. My tears falls endlessly. My eyes are gently bleaching and puffy.I can't believe it at all of a sudden. The man I wanted to be with is now gone. He left me alone. Tears at the memories. He left me and he never came back again. A story full of cheerfulness. But it was replaced by sadness and longing. He is indeed a hero. Ready to fight on war.If love is war? He's my knight in shining armor. He is willing to risk his life just to save his Maria Clara.His name is Lucas not Ibarra. But he is as brave as Juanito Alfonso and Ibarra. He's ready to fight for me even to his last breath. My feet froze when we reached his graveyard. There was only a strong gust of rain around.It seems that time is joining and sympathizing with the sorrow of my heart. The cold breeze felt like ice on my skin.A large tent serves as a shelter from the heavy rain. Here we are sheltered so that we don't get wet forever.I couldn't imagine and was not sure where Lucas was lyi
Clara's POV"Clara Mondragon! You're committed in this crime as a murder. You have been found guilty according to the law."I just cried as I mourns. My tears just fall down on my cheeks. I felt like I was shot in my chest and I almost died. I can't breathe. My hands were shaking while handcuffed. I also feel my knees shaking.Feeling sick. The pain stabbed my chest. I can't accept it with myself. I'm committed in this crime as a murder. No! I feel like I'm getting crazy. I'm out of mind. My head felt like it was going to crack. The pain I feel I felt I'm weak.I was just stunned while walking. Nothing in oneself. My mind is flying in the airy. It's sad to think.My tears just fall. I don't know what's happening to me? I'm like I'm being killed by sadness.The cameras flashed incessantly as I walked. There was a lot of press around us. They were photographing me and investigating. I don't know? They are in trouble. They don't want to wait to know the truth. The police only stopped
"No! You have no right to do that Clara."Lu... Lucas? Clara did not fire the gun she was holding. We got our attention when Lucas arrived.My eyes widened in shock. I can't believe that Lucas comes unexpectedly to save us. I thought he would never come. Thanks God! Damn! Clara could not speak. She was only holding the gun and her hands were shaking. She becomes speechless.Clara couldn't believe that Lucas would come to this point. Her eyes widened in surprise."You're a traitor Daniel. I trust you! But I don't think that you are the only one who will betray me. You don't owe me anything." Lucas yelled.Daniel's eyes widened in shock. He couldn't believe he had done that to boss. He was trusted all his life but he became a traitor."I have never been a traitor! But I hope you understand me! I did it because I needed money." What does he mean? He shook his head. Daniel seems to regret what he did. He felt sorry. He slowly pointed the gun at Clara. Daniel became too emotional. What
"I'm sorry!" I dreadfully scream. I couldn't stopped myself from crying as my tears fall. Pain gently shot my chest. "I'm sorry if I didn't say informed you Lucas! I'm here in the South Center Building. Andrie are their captive." I'm restless with my voice trembled. I feel like my knees will shake because of its tremors. I feel dread and fear."What? They're holding Andrie captive?" "I don't know Lucas! I don't know! Clara is here. Daniel is here! They have our son captive." My hands are just shaking. It's getting cold. I don't understand my feelings. I feel like I'm getting fool."Wait! I don't understand you? Are Clara and Daniel there? Is Andrie captive?" Lucas was just confused. He didn't understand me."Yes! But I don't understand Lucas. They fight and shoot each other. They are fighting with Andrie."I just cry. I feel my tears sheds. I just cried fearfully. "Wait! How...? I don't understand you! Just don't leave there okay! I'm on my way!" Lucas growled. I feel him runni
"Ahhh!" I was screaming from pain. I'm like a rag thrown on the floor. My body was numb."Mommy!" Andrie just exclaim worriedly. I was kneeling before Clara. Anger was flaming in her eyes. She would shattered in disgust with me. She quickly pointed the gun at my head. Her hand was shaking with disgust. She will shoot me mercilessly."Alright! Try to fight Iris. I'll kill you." she immediately pointed a gun at Andrie's head. Anger was burning in her eyes."No! Please! Don't shoot my son Clara! I'm begging you!" I fell to my knees shrank and I burst into tears. My knees were shaking with fear. My hands are cold.Andrie was just crying. His tears were falling down as he looked at me. He shook his head. He is hurt. He broke down from crying."Clara! Please! Don't involve my son here! He is innocent! He has nothing to do with this!" I just knelt down and begged. Catching my breathe. My heart throbs. My tears are falling."You! Your son! Even your family are the reason why my life beca
I shook my head terribly when I opened my eyes. My palms were full of blood when I washed the side of my face. I was just shaking with fear. My knees are shrank. My eyes widened with curiosity. "No!" I whispered, shaking my head terribly. I felt my blood running down into my face. My eyes just widened in fear. "Mommy!" I turned to Andrie when he exclaim. He was crying and suffering. He was restless. I only hear a small voice from him. The man covered his mouth. Luckily the man didn't strangle him completely. He is coughing. My palms are only bloody. I thought he shot me? It's not! He released his gun from above. I stood up from my knees. My tears just fall. I shook my head. He bravely pointed the gun at my head again. His lips parted in annoyance. He wants to continue kill me. He wants to shoot me in the head. "Enough!" I turned to the man who came. My eyes widened in shock. Curiosity wraps me. I can't believe it. No! Daniel? One of Lucas's men. He was hol
I can't bear my son. I will do everything for him. I know this is all I can do for my son. For Andrie.I can't lose him. Andrie and I have always been together through trials. In pain and sadness. Should I leave him now? Shall I let him now? Can I still tolerate him?Of course not! He is my son! I'm not numb so I don't get hurt. I'm Andrie's mother. I feel the pain he is feeling now.I know he is hurting right now and struggling. I know he misses these moments.My tears just fall. I can't because my chest is heavy. I'm just sobbing from crying.I hold 100 million in exchange for his life. Wealth means nothing to me at this moment. All I need is Andrie. Can I get the money if I lose my child? I will take the wealth if I can no longer see Andrie and touch him?I'm now facing the said building where we will meet. Trembling and fear wrapped my legs. my arms are shaking.This place is quiet. Nobody lives. Abandoned building. Even if you shout you will not be heard.My eyes widened when a
"100 million in exchange for your beloved son. If you don't keep your word. Goodbye to your son. I will give you two hours to do that."My eyes widened dreadfully and I swallowed hard. My hands were shakes as I holds the phone to my ear.Curiosity pushed me to answer the call. It's an unknown number so I answered it earlier. But what I wonder is where did they get my number? Maybe that's because of the information we gave to the police yesterday. They publicized Andrie's missing with my number. Because of what I heard. Fear crept through my entire being. My knees are weak. I shook my head."No!" I whispered terribly.Tears fell from my eyes. Before I knew it, I was crying. My tears fell one after the other."Remember! Don't ever call the police. Because when you do that. You never see your son."My tears just fall. I don't know what to say. I was confused and dizzy. "Listen!""Mommy!" I heard Andrie shouts. He just cries."Son! Andrie! My son!"My tears falls at all of a sudden whe
Iris's POV"What happened? Has Andrie been found?" When we arrived to the mansion. I could hardly breathe when mom asked me one after another about Andrie.We came from the police station earlier. We already informed the police about Andrie's missing. So that they can help with us to find my son as soon as possible. My tears just fall. I couldn't stop crying earlier. I'm very worried about my son.So far we have not found him. I miss him so much.I hurriedly hugged mom while crying. I sobbed louder in her shoulders. My tears are just falling. Pain throbs in my chest louder. It's like I'm being poisoned by sadness. I'm restless. I'm just confused.There's a lot to lose but why Andrie? Why is my son still? Why is fate so cruel to me and my son?I felt mom's hand rubbing my back. Her every touch was sad. Heart breaking."My son is missing! Andrie is missing!" I sobbed again in mom's arms. Too sad. It hurts to think that my son is missing. I just want us to be happy. To be with my son
