The three of us froze, staring at Maximus, who had now approached. “Say that again, Midori!” the bow-legged woman and I both jumped as he yelled. His face was filled with rage, his jaw clenched tightly as if he were holding back his anger.

He suddenly grabbed Midori by the arm, and she now looked terrified. “Did you have anything to do with my wife’s disappearance?” Maximus demanded again. “Answer me!!” He was furious. Did he love his wife that much?

His face was red, and his body was trembling as I watched him hurt the bow-legged woman. She deserved it, but her appearance was now pitiful, and I feared my boos might break her bones.

“Sir,” Aries intervened, trying to hold our boss’s hand. But it had no effect. Maximus glared at Midori, refusing to let go until she answered his question.

“Answer me, Midori. Did you have anything to do with Sarina’s disappearance?” Maximus asked again.

“No, I had nothing to do with it. Remember, I was here; how could I harm her?” the terrified woman repl

    Bella"Good morning, Sir," I greeted Maximus as he arrived."In my office," he responded, not even glancing at me. It's been five days since we went to the hospital, and he really had everything tested on me. They said I used to work there, so the nurse assisting me kept glancing at me—maybe because of my name, even though I was not wearing the same face. My boss said she was a friend of mine. Now, we're just waiting for the results.I stood up from my seat and followed him. What could this man want this time? As I entered, he suddenly closed the door behind me, pinned me there after he lifted me, and kissed me. I was so shocked that I didn't know how to react until I finally responded to his kiss.My mouth seemed to have a mind of its own, knowing exactly what to do, and quickly sucked on Maximus' lower lip. Damn! I didn't realize I was this lustful. I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss, which only stopped because we were both running out of breath.I think we both

    BellaOur conversation ended with me having no choice but to agree with him. However, I warned him that no matter what happens, if he cannot accept my child, there would be no chance for us to be together permanently, even if I am his true wife.I also arranged his meeting with the finance department because he wanted it done early so we could leave wherever he said after lunch.I thought he would rush the meeting, but that didn't happen. He listened to everything, so it lasted longer, and we ended up having lunch in the meeting room, which I also ordered.When the meeting finally ended, Maximus and I went to his office, where he told me we would pick up Chase to bring him along."Where are we going? My son is—""A special child. You already told me about it. We're taking him to our doctor because we're also getting the results of your labs and your DNA test."I couldn't respond to what he said. "Look, I know everything is happening so fast between us, and I understand if you're a bit

    BellaI couldn't take my eyes off the envelope Dr. Jerold handed Maximus while Chase sat on my lap. I was feeling nervous and excited at the same time. I was so intrigued by the truth that I silently prayed to God to give me back to the right person—someone who would care for me and my son.Maximus looked at me, indirectly asking me if he should open it, and I nodded at him in agreement. I felt a mix of nervousness, fear, and excitement, and my prayer intensified that I was indeed Maximus' missing wife.Dr. Jerold remained there, his face stoic, though I felt he already knew the result. I hugged Chase tightly and closed my eyes, bowing my head completely as Maximus began reading the documents. I could hear the rustling of the paper every time he turned a page until there was silence, which made me slowly open my eyes and look up.Maximus and I locked eyes and waited for him to tell me the result. We sat beside each other, so he quickly embraced me, and I felt his deep sigh. What did th

    SarinaAfter we talked to Dr. Jerold, we took care of Chase's laboratory tests. It's okay that no DNA will happen because I trust my husband completely. "No, I want to brag about being sure I love you and our family."I smiled at Maximus and nodded. After taking blood and whatever else was needed to check Chase's condition, we left the hospital. I thought we were going home, but not yet."It's almost dinner time, so let's eat first," he said as we got into the car. "What do you want to eat?" he asked me before turning to Chase, "How about you, my boy? What do you want to have for dinner?"Even though my son is a special child, he can still talk to anyone; it's just that he can't make eye contact directly with anyone he talks to."A-any-thing m-momm l-likes," he replied, smiling. Maximus was carrying him, and I'm sure that the feeling was new to him, but I'm glad that he didn't see his abusive father as the man holding him."Wow! My son and I still love mommy very much," Maximus said pr

    SarinaI still can't believe what's happening. After leaving the restaurant, we went home to pick up some of Chase's and my things from Aunt Marga's house. She cried when she found out we were leaving to live with Maximus. Aunt Amor hugged my son, who had grown very dear to her. Unaware of everything, my son smiled at her and hugged her as if he didn't want to leave her.Now, we're at Maximus' condo. We immediately rested and fell asleep together. The next morning, his maid, Lisa, arrived, clearly surprised by our presence. She wanted to ask questions, and Maximus explained everything to her."Really?" the old woman said, her voice trembling, but she smiled at me and Chase."Yes, Lisa," Maximus replied happily. His smile was wide and filled with joy and happiness. It was genuine because I had never seen someone smile like he did now."Oh dear, I never thought I would be able to see you again. I began to lose hope that Sir Maximus would return to himself—you know, the way he was when yo

    SarinaLisa had just left around 4 p.m., and Maximus and I were having a snack while watching our son play with his Legos. It was the first toy I bought for him with my first paycheck as my husband's secretary. Aunt Amor didn't forget to give it to him before we left last night because she said it was Chase's favorite toy."Maybe our son will grow up to be an engineer. Or perhaps he'll own a construction business and have a big family," Maximus said, smiling as he looked at Chase. I glanced at him after he said those words."Why do you say that?" I asked curiously, also looking at our son."Look at him, he's really good at building.""You're such a silly man, always thinking about perverted things."He just laughed while I playfully slapped him. "Why is it wrong to dream of a big family for our son? You and your brother grew up together, but I didn't have that."He stood up from the couch and offered me his hand, which I accepted. He invited me to join Chase on the floor, and we played

    Maximus“Grandma, please don’t judge my wife because she comes from a poor background. I don’t want to argue with you about this anymore. Don’t you want me to be happy with the person I love, who also loves me?” I know Sarina can hear us, and I’m worried about what she might think because of what my grandmother says about her.“If that woman truly loves you, she should know what’s best for you,” my grandmother insisted.“My wife can’t remember anything right now. She doesn’t know what happened to us before, and she especially doesn’t know about her real family. We were just starting to live our family life together, and you don’t know how happy I am.”“You really won’t listen to me, no matter what I say, will you?” she asked, sounding hurt. I took a deep breath before answering.“I’m already married. I hope you understand that. I’m sorry if I’ve disappointed you, but you saw how I was when I thought my wife was gone. And I hope you can also see how happy I am now that she’s back with o

    Maximus"Bye, my wife. Remember, I'll come back for you and Chase here later, okay?" I said to my wife."Yes, yes, you're so persistent," she laughed. We were standing in front of Dr. Jerold's office. I looked at our son before picking him up and speaking to him."My son, Daddy will just go and see your uncle. I will be back soon, okay?""D-Daddy g-go. S-See y-you." I smiled at his response. Even though I feel sorry for his condition, I can't help but admire him because he's not like other kids who are very restless. It's as if he really understands what we're saying to him.I left them and headed to the Luxuria Hotel, where Mariano was. I'd also like to take this opportunity to tell him that I've found Sarina. I'm sure he'll be incredibly happy.I saw how much he worried about me in the past few years. He didn't even take care of himself because of my requests. He kept promising, so I also promised myself that no matter what happens, I'll help and support him as much as I can.The tra

    SarinaMaximus had always been incredibly supportive. There were days when he would follow me to the university, and I felt like a teenager again. I couldn’t help but smile as the woman stared at him, only to find out I was his wife. He would kiss me deeply in front of all the students before inviting me into the car.But honestly, it hasn’t been easy. Every morning, I had to wake up early just to keep up with our exercise routine. Dr. Miraez told me it would help if I lost some weight, as I had been feeling insecure. But Maximus reassured me that no matter what form, size, or shape I was in, I would always be the only woman he’d love and desire.Still, it's hard not to feel insecure as a woman, especially when your husband is still as handsome and fit as ever. Maximus is health-conscious, so his body remains well-maintained.Years passed, and my routine became second nature despite my lessons getting harder. My kids seemed to understand my situation. Lisa said they behaved so well whe

    MaximusJust as Sarina wished, she pursued studying medicine. She started a bit late and had to catch up with her classmates, making her early days extremely busy. The kids were excited when we told them. Chase, who understood the most, was incredibly happy for his mother.Sarina worried about our children, but Lisa assured her they would take care of everything in her absence. As the boss of my own company, I could look after our kids whenever necessary.“Relax, my love. Everything will be fine, so just focus on your studies, okay?” She nodded and smiled at me before kissing my lips sweetly.I accompanied her to her therapy sessions with Dr. Miraez. During that time, I felt useless, as I hadn’t realized that Sarina, too, could break down like anyone else. I was a fool to think that the superwoman in my life had no weaknesses, despite knowing the horrors she had endured at the hands of those cruel people.One day, she came to my office to apologize to Lavinia. Her face flushed with emb

    Sarina "Where are you taking me, Maximus?" I asked as he continued driving. It was a Saturday morning, and we were supposed to spend time with our kids at home. But out of the blue, he invited me to go out, saying he had somewhere he wanted to go—with me, of course. It had been a month since we reconciled and came to an understanding. I was enrolled in the university and trying to catch up with the lesson I missed because I started a little late. Today, I skipped my school-related tasks because it was supposed to be our family day. But now, here I was, being whisked away to some unknown destination by my husband. "You're still as impatient as ever, my wife. And why do you only call me Maximus? Are you mad?" "No, it's just that you're being so secretive. Why won't you tell me where we're going?" He took a deep breath before replying. "Just relax, my wife. I have something to show you, and I want your opinion on it." I let him be and stopped questioning him. He was driving, a

    SarinaTwo days had passed, and Maximus and I still hadn't spoken, although he kept trying. I was still hurt and didn’t want to cry in front of him anymore.I felt guilty and a bit embarrassed for slapping his secretary, who turned out to be Aries' girlfriend. I wanted to speak to her and personally apologize. From Maximus' expression when he revealed who Lavinia really was, I knew nothing had happened between them. Still, it hurt that he kicked me out, giving the shallow excuse that he was just surprised or shocked.It was Saturday, so Maximus was home, but he was in his mini office talking to Aries. Earlier, they had been playing with the kids, and he excused himself to speak with his assistant for a moment.I waited for their conversation to end, watching for him to come out. "I want to tell you something," I said. He nodded quickly and moved closer to touch me, but I stepped away and walked into his office.Maximus followed me and sat down at his desk while I remained standing in f

    Sarina“My wife,” Maximus said as soon as he saw me walking up the porch. He looked in a hurry, probably about to leave, so I just gave him a nod. I kept walking into the house, with him following closely behind.“Mommy!!!” Chastity screamed the moment she saw me. The other children turned around and rushed toward me while I noticed my husband watching quietly.“Did you behave while I was gone?” I asked them with a smile.“Yes!!!” they all replied in unison, and I couldn't help but shower them with kisses in delight.“Why did Daddy come home first? Nanny said you went to his office.”“Well, Mommy had somewhere else to go, so Daddy came home first. I needed to make sure you weren’t getting into any trouble.”“Behave, babies,” chimed in my seventh child, Chanton. His words were still slightly slurred, but it was understandable. I picked him up and walked toward the living room, holding Chastity’s hand, with the others trailing behind, except for the youngest, who was in Rowena’s arms, sm

    SarinaI can’t believe it. He yelled at me and threw me out of his office. It hurts so much; I don’t know where to go or who to turn to. Why did this happen? Has he really changed? When did this all start, and why am I only feeling it now? I had been too busy taking care of our children to the point that I forgot about myself, and this?I couldn’t stop my tears from falling. I kept wiping my cheeks as I passed that woman in the hallway. I didn’t want to take the elevator and risk anyone seeing me like this.When I decided to visit his office, all the scenarios I imagined disappeared instantly. I thought his office could once again become our little love haven, just like it used to be. But that didn’t happen. Instead, the scene I walked into was a nightmare, and what happened after that felt like hell.I couldn’t shake the image of that woman from my mind—beautiful, sexy. And I’m sure she’s smart, too. Maximus never liked someone who couldn’t keep up with him and how he worked. He wants

    MaximusI didn’t like what happened, and I felt upset with Sarina for what she thought. I could never cheat on her—she alone is more than enough for me. So why does she feel that way? When did she lose her trust in me? Is that why she came here without warning and didn’t bring the kids? Was it just to do what she did earlier?She always brought the kids whenever she visited me in my office. Even when it was just Chase, she hated going out alone—not out of fear, but because she didn’t want to leave our children behind.I took a deep breath and sank into my chair. I leaned back before closing my eyes. My head still throbbed from the hangover, and what just happened only made it worse.I heard the door to my office open, likely Lavinia. "Sir," she called, prompting me to open my eyes and watch her pick up the things scattered on the floor.“I’m sorry, Lavinia.”“It’s okay, Sir.” She placed the laptop on my table along with Sarina's lunchbox."It looks like Ma'am Sarina wanted to spend tim

    Maximus"Aw, shit!" I groaned as I woke up, slowly blinking my eyes open. I glanced around and remembered that I wasn't at home. I looked at my wristwatch and saw that it was already half past six.I sat up and pulled the blanket off my body, only to be shocked when I realized I wasn’t wearing any clothes. My eyes darted around the room, searching for my clothes, and I noticed a rack with some neatly hung clothes on it.Nobody else was in the room, so I stood up and headed to the bathroom to shower. Judging by the room's look, I must be in a hotel. There was a bar downstairs where I had stayed last night, lost in thoughts about my wife.“Shit! Sarina!” I shouted, but I could only shake my head as I recalled what happened yesterday. I turned on the shower and began washing myself, but the thoughts of my wife wouldn’t leave my mind.I couldn’t understand her anymore. I noticed she’s always quiet, and whenever I ask her what’s wrong, she smiles and says it’s nothing. But I’m not a mind re

    Sarina"Let’s talk," Maximus said firmly as I stepped out of the bathroom.“I’m not in the mood to talk,” I said before turning my back on him; he grabbed my arm, spinning me around to face him.“I want to know what’s going on, Sarina.” That’s what he called me now, Sarina. I stared at him, and he met my gaze, waiting for an answer.“Nothing is going on, Maximus.”“Then what was that downstairs? Why did you suddenly get so angry?”“Chanden chased Chansen, and he fell. What do you want me to do about it?”“Is that how you correct the kids when they make mistakes? And besides, they’re just kids. It’s normal for them to play and get hurt sometimes.”“You know what? No matter how much I try to explain, you'll never understand me.” I tried to walk away again, but he wouldn’t let me.“Talk to me, Sarina. Tell me what’s really going on. I don’t believe this is just about correcting the kids.”“I told you, nothing’s wrong!” I blurted out. Maximus stared at me intently as if trying to read my s
