Confrontation

I locked myself in the bathroom for a few minutes, possibly because my stomach flared up again. I don't want them to think I'm sick for attention if I go back and forth to the bathroom.

So I grabbed the bathroom tissue that was on the shelf. I also looked in the medicine kit and luckily found some diatabs. I hid it in my pocket because Argo would be suspicious of my pregnancy if he found out I took medicine while pregnant.

I don't want him to suspect me again, like when I drank the wine at the restaurant the last time. Only now did I have the opportunity to research pregnancy taboos. As a result, I'm being extra cautious now.

Before leaving the bathroom, I almost rub my palm with soap and spray my entire body with air freshener. I peeked slightly and looked around for Argo, but he wasn't there.

My steps were still slow enough that they wouldn't notice me, but when I heard Paul's voice call my name, I closed my eyes tightly.

I took a step closer to them, still carrying th

    I refused to budge and gave him a hard stare. Argo frowned and gradually let go of my arms."You only have the right to my child, but you don't own me, remember?" I squeezed my arm hard, then turned away with a smile on my lips.What's the matter with him, he hasn't even touched me and now he wants to possess me?But I was taken aback when he suddenly turned around and faced me, so I backed away. He also drew my back so close to him that I almost fell into his wide chest.Argo gave me a scowl. If I didn't look away, our faces would have almost touched."I own you, Natalia. Maybe you're forgetting that you should be in jail right now rubbing bars if it weren't for me." His voice is deep and resonant.I inhale his hot, fragrant breath, which saps my energy. I might have fallen if it hadn't been for his hand supporting my back.I tried to swallow but couldn't get it past my throat. Because I'm so nervous, I can't even move.Argo's gaze follows my nose all the way down to my lips. My body

    I got up early the next day to prepare breakfast for the guests. Paul and Christof fell asleep here, while George took Barbara and Gellie.Paul caught up with me in the kitchen while I was still singing."Morning! How is your sleep going?""It's all right. I awoke to the wonderful aroma of your cooking."When I placed the cooked bacon, hotdog, egg, and tomato on the table, I smiled."Coffee?""It's me, maybe it's bothering you too much, what do you drink in the morning?" he asked, turning to face the coffee machine.The truth is that I drink coffee every morning. I'm purging milk every morning because I'm pretending to be pregnant. I even drink it in my room on occasion, especially when Argo is not present."I only have milk, you see. I'll get it ready "I said this as I returned to the stove to continue cooking the rice."Are you really that difficult to cook?"I looked over at Paul, who had already returned to the table and taken a seat in one of the chairs. He looks so hot in his sa

    I couldn't help but wipe the tears that fell. I'm feeling so heavy right now. This is how it feels to be accused of something you did.I'm so sorry for the numerous sins I've committed. I don't know how I'm going to get out of it.I blinked when Argo handed me a tissue."I don't want to see anyone crying, so wipe your tears," he said, his gaze fixed on the road.I accepted the tissue quietly and wiped my tears. I even sniffed there because I had been sniffing for a while due to a cold. I took out another tissue and wiped my tears."You should have just waited for me to come back before leaving the boutique," he said solemnly."I'm sorry, I was planning to go home."To be honest, I had planned to give him a gift after learning that it was his birthday today, but it appears that I won't be able to do so."Brace yourself. I don't want mom to see you looking like that when we get there."I nodded slowly. I cast a glance at him, who had completely removed his sunglasses. He is also dressed

Does anything hurt?"I vigorously bit my lip and shook my head. The only thing I'm moving right now is the foot I tripped on earlier."My foot,"Before touching my hurt foot, Argo gave me a long look and a moment of his attention.Hijo, what does this mean? Maybe you've forgotten that wowan ruined your arranged marriage to Florisse.She was so enraged that it was almost hysterical.But instead of responding to the lady, Argo looked up at me again. "Can you still walk?" he inquired.I moved my foot a little, but it hurt. That's when Argo arrived to pick me up. Almost everyone was making a fuss at the sight, so I had no choice but to bow."Are you insane?!" The lady nearly passed out from rage after seeing what Argo had done."You may leave my house at any time!" said Argo solemnly.The lad

How can I deal with Argo when he can already take me out with the tip of his finger?I bit my lower lip firmly. What if something worse happened earlier? I'll probably go out ten more times just in case.I, too, can't take my eyes off the face. His warm hands are still there, draining my strength. His touch, his body heat, and his deep gaze made my heart race.This night I've been dreading will undoubtedly come.

    BungalowWhile staring at him, I inhaled glassy air. I would have gone back to the water to hide if I could.Even though the wind is blowing hard on my skin, I can still feel his warmth inside me.He came to a halt a short distance away from me. His hand is now sliding into his pants pocket as he fixed me with an unwavering stare."Did I tell you not to leave your room? Why are you taking a bath here?" His voice was deep and disgusted."Because the sea is beautiful, fascinating..." I softly smiled at him, trying to calm the rumbling in my stomach."Did I tell you not to leave your room? Why are you taking a bath here?" he asked, his voice deep and disgusted."Because the sea is beautiful, fascinating..." I softly smiled at him, trying to calm the rumbling in my stomach.Even though it was dark, I knew he noticed my smile. He quickly averted his gaze and clenched his jaws several times.I forcefully bite my tongue. I wish I could explain his eyes and how the sound of his voice fills my

    Nightmare"Enough! Don't hurt my mother!"I sobbed loudly as I clutched the hem of my mother Ruth's dress. Uncle Oscar is drunk again, and he began arguing with Mother."Hey, you kid, don't get involved if you don't want me to replace you with your useless mother!"I looked at him, still clutching the hem of his gown. We had just returned from the bakery when we ran into the drunk uncle.He must have lost the cockfight again, as he became inebriated and irritable. Mother is the one he always hurts, but I am always to blame because of my interference."Do you really want to give up?"Uncle grabbed my arm, so I let go of Mother. I cast a quick glance at him, who was quietly adjusting his unkempt hair and clothes. I know she's exhausted from the day's work, so she doesn't have the energy to argue with uncle and wean us.When Mother turned away from us and entered their room, I bit my lower lip tightly. I don't want to hold a grudge, but I believe I did the right thing for my uncle by let

    BeachWhen I awoke, the sun was nearly still. I rushed out of my room, my eyes bleary."Morning!"I heard Apollo, who was carrying a large watermelon, greet me. I also noticed Aling Mareng, who was busy putting food on the table."Uh, morning..." I stammered."Good to see you up; come on in for breakfast," Manang said.I looked around for Argo and turned quickly to the bathroom where he had come from, wiping his wet hair with a towel. My attention was drawn to her bare chest.As I stared at his gorgeously hot body, my heart rate increased and my cheeks turned red. The water dripping into his body made my knees weak."Hmm, your mouth drools,"When Manang whispered after passing me, I blinked and looked away. I began by clearing my throat and averting my gaze completely. When I met him in the bathroom, I walked and bowed.As I passed him, my nostrils complimented his scented body, I sighed. Before entering the bathroom, I closed my eyes briefly.Sticky crap. After what happened last nig

    Special Chapter Love After the wedding, we went straight to the resort to greet the guests who attended the gathering. Tonight's party was also simple. Almost only select guests attended the reception. Almost everyone was happy with the way the ceremony went, especially daddy and mother who seemed to be having trouble talking to Argo's mommy. "Congratulations to our newlyweds!" Christof pronounced loudly while holding the champagne bottle in his hand. Argo approached him and hugged him before patting him on the shoulder. He looked at Paul and George who hugged him too. "Thanks for coming, I thought you wouldn't be able to make it." "Still us? We know you've been planning this for a long time." Christof shifted his eyes on me and gave a wink. So, it's true that this marriage was planned and not just Argo's sudden thought. I will definitely give him a sermon later. "Congratulations, Natalia." I looked up at Paul who was smiling widely at me. I did the same before spe

    Aisle I couldn't hold back my tears while riding in the car. Mother always caressing my back non-stop. "Don't worry hija. Everything will be fine." But nothing is running through my mind right now but the possible consequences of Argo. Mother said she had an accident on her way to Calatagan. So I drove the car straight to the nearest hospital because it was said that Argo was probably brought here. But we passed several hospitals and the car still didn't stop. I didn't pay attention to that thing because my mind was still confused by what was happening. But after we got out of Calatagan, the car still didn't stop at the hospital. "Where are we going?" I couldn't stop asking Mother. But he just stroked my back and nodded to me. I let out a sigh. My heart beat harder. What's going on? I don't understand. Where was Argo taken? We were already in Nasugbu when I noticed we were heading to one of the resorts there. I looked at Mother with a look of surprise on her

    Tragic NewsI had already prepared to go to Nasugbu to visit Dad's hotel there. He said that I will take care of managing there from now on. He has also notified all the hotel staff and managers so it will not be difficult for me to introduce myself. After half an hour's drive, the car stopped in front of the hotel. Right there, I saw the staff lined up as if they were waiting for my arrival. Rosario who will be my personal assistant and Shiela who will be my secretary are also there. I took a deep breath before going down after one of my security guards opened me up. Daddy requested that I be given security because of Andra's surveillance of me and what happened in the past weeks. Also, the child I'm carrying is already walking for three months, so I'm very careful with my actions. Even if Mother wanted to stop me and just stay at the Villa, I didn't agree. I want to help Daddy and reduce his work load as much as possible because I was a witness to the hours he allocated for jo

    RealIt was noon when the yacht we were on docked at the Island. My smile became wide because we were greeted by some uniformed men. Some of us even tied flowers around our necks that must have been made by them. "Welcome to Isla Verde!" They welcomed us warmly. As before, there are not that many people here but there are a few people who are building small businesses here for tourists who want to go for a walk. In fact, even without electricity at night, that adds to the attraction of tourists who want to camp here. We went straight to a bungalow type where the locals had already prepared food for our arrival. The Mayor and several Councilors who met us earlier were also there. "It's good that you thought of investing in our Island. The truth is that we are having a hard time promoting the Island due to the lack of electricity supply," said the Mayor to Argo as we started eating. "I've been wanting to build a restaurant here for a long time because I think the Island has great

    Isla VerdeI woke up to sunlight hitting my cheeks. At the same time, the cold wind blowing the white curtain. I hugged the pillow tightly and enjoyed the cool breeze. "Good morning, L'amour?"I opened my eyes quickly and quickly got up when I heard Argo's low voice speak. "Why are you still here?!"I didn't hesitate to lower the comporter from my body and get off the bed. I immediately looked for my clothes but I couldn't find them. "Are you looking for this?"I looked up at Argo who was holding my white loose shirt in one hand. Because of so much shock and shame, I almost jumped on the bed to grab the clothes from it. "Give me that!" Instead of giving it, I heard his crisp laugh after pulling my hips to replace his. Sticky shit, Natalia. You're completely naked. Like me, it still can't get dressed so I can freely observe and touch her hard chest. "God, you're so beautiful," he whispered. He caught my gaze and slowly traveled over the entirety of my face. His fingers caressed

    My eyes were still wide open as I felt the person next to me. My heart was pounding nervously. When I noticed it moving, I quickly turned to lie down and turned away from it. I bit my nail hard and prayed that it would be a good night's sleep. But I was startled when I felt his hand touch my thigh and his face pressed into my back. Sticky shit, Natalia. . . What should I do now? Should I move? If I push him? Maybe wake up? In the end I couldn't do anything but let him do what he was doing. Maybe it's really sleeping. But my body almost went cold when I felt his hand on my thigh move. He pulled me close to him and his hand is slowly caressing up to my tummy. I bit my lips harder when he snuggled up behind me and buried his face in the nape of my neck as he continued to gently caress my stomach. "My child. . ." I softened when I heard his soft whisper. He followed with small kisses on my neck and shoulders. I closed my eyes tightly. I want to resist his warm kisses and

    Sweet Fire Kiss As the night deepened, the events of the evening became more manageable for me. I felt a sense of ease while greeting guests and interacting with them. Andra and Florisse didn't cross my path again, and I noticed that the Greensmiths and the Villarosas had left early. Since I couldn't stay up too late, I tried to excuse myself to Dad and Mom. I also stopped by Shiela and Rosario's table. "We're fine here. There are plenty of boylets around," Rosario said, taking a large gulp of wine from her glass. "You're going to get drunk," Shiela chided her. "The guest room is ready for you both," I told them. "I wish I could take a leave from work, but Ms. Andra would probably scold me," Rosario said, pointing toward Andra and Florisse's table, where they were engaged in conversation with some politicians and businessmen. "If you want, you can be my secretary. I'll double your salary, or even triple it!" Her face lit up at my offer, and she nodded enthusiastically.

    He stroked my cheek, which I knew was flushed with embarrassment. The kiss we shared in the elevator suddenly popped into my mind. Marco is a nice guy, I think there's nothing wrong with staying friends with him after this incident. "Are you sure you're okay now?" "Hmm. . . I guess I'm just not used to this kind of occasion, so I'm a little dizzy," I said after taking a few bites and putting down my cutlery. "You'll get used to it. Don't force yourself. Look at them, you don't have to keep up with them." I smiled at him again, then looked around. Almost everyone was busy with their own conversations. I even saw Dad and Mom talking to some of their business associates, but the Greensmiths were no longer there. "I have to keep up with them, Marco. Because I'm not the woman I was yesterday. I am now Natalia Punongbayan-Falcon. I'm no longer the weak woman they used to trample on." "That's the spirit, but you don't have to rush things, remember that you are now a Falcon. Every move

    "Let us talk. . ." He took the lead, walking out of the ballroom, and I followed him with my gaze. I tried to take a step, but I heard Mom's voice. "Natalia, are you okay? Maybe you should rest in your room for a while?" She stopped me by the arm. "I'm okay, Mom." "What's happening might be bad for you and the baby?" I let out a sigh before turning to her. "Mom, I'm okay. I'll just talk to Argo for a bit." She didn't seem convinced by what I said, so I just smiled at her widely. I didn't stop myself anymore as I followed Argo out of the mansion. Outside, there were even more people and guests, who caught my attention. The orchestra was also making noise that night, despite the whispers. I just shrugged them off, focusing my attention on Argo, who was definitely heading towards the guava and mango trees. I confidently stepped into the dark part of the yard. I found him leaning against the wide mango tree. From here, only a little light reached us, and no one would notice us
