CHAPTER 77

Diego

Damn, every time I think I am about to win her over, she reminds me that we are only doing everything for our son and nothing more. My heart was so broken after she made it clear that she was not interested in me; I could not believe she admitted that she could not stand me. Opportunity only comes once in a lifetime; the woman I once treated as trash is about to become my bloody uncle's treasure, right in front of my eyes. No! As soon as my son fell asleep, I had to get home. I arrived home and discovered that it was already 4 a.m. So all I had to do was rest for two hours before heading to work, so I got busy.

I entered my room and quickly locked the door because I did not want any surprises, especially from Sonia, who was struggling to accept that what had happened to us could no longer continue. That was back when I was a jerk, but now I have learned my lesson. I took off my clothes and went to take a cold shower before bed. As I fell deeper into my sleep, I began

    CHAPTER 78Diego "Sofia White," I replied, extending my hand for a handshake."Hello there, Mr. Myers; what an honor to see you again," she said with a smile."So tell me what you are doing here," I asked Sofia."Nothing, I am just here to check on someone," she replied, leaving me wondering who it could be.“Oh, I see.”Sofia was one of the women I attended university with. After everyone had finished their studies, we stayed in the same city for a while before moving on to our respective professions. I did not have to go anywhere except to decide where I wanted my father's empire to expand. I would have let my father and his brother run the same company, but I am glad my mother made it clear that I was the only one who would inherit all of her wealth, and Dad had to go with what she wanted even though he was wealthier. So, since everything happened so quickly, I have not heard from Sofia in years, except for rumors about her appearance on a reality show."How about we go on a date,

    CHAPTER 79Diego “Cheers boys,” Sofia said as we all toasted. I could tell my uncle was surprised I had a girlfriend, even though she was only pretending to be. "Please excuse me," Uncle said before making his way upstairs.“Do you think he bought it?” Sofia whispered, but I told her to remain quiet.We finished our meals and went to the living room to make it look like we were watching a movie together. I was still caught up in the moment when the last person I expected to see arrived. “Diego!” Sonia exclaimed."Hello, what a surprise," I replied, knowing that nothing good would come from it.“I could say the same, who is she?” Sonia inquired, looking at Sofia, who lay comfortably in my arms.“She's my fiancé,” I replied."What do you mean, this slut is your fiancé?" Sonia furiously asked."Watch it, you do not have the right to call me that," Sofia warned her."Shut up, Diego is my man; you can not come here and try to snatch him from me bitch, so back the fuck off OK," Sonia argue

    CHAPTER 80Serene When Miguel ran into my room and attempted to wake me up, I was still deep asleep. I was hesitant at first, but I had to wake up knowing Miguel I did not want to take any further chances. “Sweetie, what's the matter?” I asked, hoping it was not about Diego."Mommy, why don't you want Daddy to sleep on your bed?" He questioned, and I could not believe he figured it out so quickly."No, sweetie, who told you that your daddy lies down right—" I looked at the side of the bed I was going to point to, and it did not even appear that anyone had slept there. Miguel chuckled and ran away after telling me Diego was in his bedroom. What is he doing there, given the text I sent him yesterday, and who permitted the guards to let him in? I didn't even have time for those responses, so I dashed out after Miguel into his room. Diego quickly stood on his feet, terrified. Well, it is not the kind of fright that intimidates you; it is just that one of me is probably going to get him

    CHAPTER 81Serene "Get away from me," I said, pushing him away and threatening to call the guards."Stop it already; I am not a stranger, and I know you are only doing this because—”"Shut up, Diego; I think you have gotten far too comfortable. Maybe we should start doing things the hard way, OK?" I said, about to call the guards, when my towel loosened and nearly fell off, but Diego caught it in time."What do you think—," I almost asked looking at him, but then noticed he had closed his eyes and tightened his grip on me."Do not worry, I am not looking. I know you're embarrassed but you are used to this touch, so relax," Diego said, and I somehow let it sink in as he slowly tightened the towel.I began to recall those days when he was calmer and nicer to me when he would tell me about his plans for us, but a memory of what caused all of that to fail came flooding back, and I pushed him so hard that he nearly fell to the ground, safe for the couch that stood there. It is not like he

    CHAPTER 82Diego I wondered what Miguel did to persuade Serene to join us. I honestly thought she would never want to see my face again, but fate must have had other plans for us. I can not wait to win Serene over; if only she knew how serious I am about this relationship. I want to make her a part of my life from the moment I realize my heart beats for her. I reached into my pocket and discovered that my phone was not with me. I got into my blazer, but there was still nothing. “Daddy is everything OK?” Miguel inquired, noting how concerned I appeared.“Yes, I was just looking for —”“This,” Serene replied, holding my phone.“How did you get that?” I asked as I was shocked."Well, you seemed to have donated it to my floor," she smiled and returned it.“Oh, sorry, thanks,” I responded with a smile."Next time, be cautious," She said, and I understood.We all took our seats and began watching the movie. I noticed Serene was dozing, so I extended my shoulders to offer her a shoulder, bu

    CHAPTER 83Diego "Hey man, where are you going at this hour?" my uncle inquired, tossing his coat onto the sofa.‘What is he doing here?’ I asked myself before lying to him that I wanted to go get Sofia, but she said her grandmother was out of town and she had to take care of the house. I was still trying to figure out why Serene lied about being on a date on my way upstairs when a message from her PA came. I opened it and couldn't believe my eyes. She had booked a flight to Australia without informing me as if I could not cope without my son. I was still in disbelief, and calling her would be a waste of time because she would not answer. I attempted to confirm if there was still room on the plane, but all tickets had sold out because they were only reserved for a select group of elite passengers.The next morning, I got up a little late and went downstairs. "You took longer than usual; should we go or not?" Grace asked, referring to the shopping."We are going, but not right now; gi

I politely instructed Rina to send those tickets to make it appear that I was gone, but here I am in his face. If only the ground would swallow me, and my son was the first to leave after I lied about pranking his father. "Mommy, I found Daddy; will I go with him now that I have won?" he asked while I could not believe Miguel was so eager to accompany his father."Sweetie, what about some other time daddy has business to handle?" I asked, hoping Diego would agree.“But mommy —”"Yes, your Mom is correct; I will take you both when I am free, so—”"No, no, that is not true, child. Grandma is here, and if your parents are busy delaying, I will take you," Grace interrupted me as she walked towards Miguel."This is your late grandmother's best friend, so you can also refer to her as your grandma's son," I explained, and he seemed thrilled.“Grandma,” Miguel said in disbe

I was still sitting on my bed when someone knocked on the door. "Are you there, Serene?" Neina inquired, and I quickly rose from the bed to open the door."Come on, I am here," I said with a smile as she followed me behind.“Uhmm where's Charlotte?” I asked as I realized she hadn't come up without her.“Playing with her nephew, you know how much she missed him,” Neina replied."Oh, that is so true; I doubt he will even want to sleep in his room today," I replied, as Miguel usually slept in Charlotte's room when she came over; he would even forget about me—not completely.“We should expect that anyway how are things going now that Diego has permission to enter your walls?” Neina asked, her face full of curiosity."Bad, I mean, it has been so weird.

    CHAPTER 158 Serene The next day, I awoke in a hospital bed, knowing that the worst news was waiting for me. I stood up and looked at Charlotte and Neina, who were nervously looking at each other. "Did I lose the babies?" I asked my ears, knowing fully well that they were unprepared for the answer. "No, you didn't. The children are fine, but we are not sure if you will want to attend Diego's funeral," Charlotte said. "I am fine, I will go," I said, but I could tell they were both concerned that I would not be able to handle the pain. We arrived home, and I was able to change. I was sitting on my couch, trying to remember all the times he managed to create memories with me, and tears welled up in my eyes. I remembered how I hugged him from behind when Miguel was kidnapped. "Tell me you do not want to see me again, and I will leave forever," his words echoed in my mind. “I don't," I recalled saying before running to give him that hug. Why did you leave me so soon? I

I exclaimed, waking up in a hospital bed. "Calm down, Ms. Brights; you are safe and sound," I heard a strange woman say. "Who... Who are you, and where is Miguel?" I asked the woman, who appeared to be smiling at me. “Miguel? I don't know who that is but I —" "What do you mean, you have no idea who my son is? Where is Miguel?" I cut her off, attempting to sit up straight at the prospect of possibly losing my son. "Oh, your son," the woman said with a smile, and my heart rate finally slowed. “Where is he?" I asked her again. "He went to bring you some clothes from the mans

"Hello, Nelly; you appear surprised to be in your new home," Mina said, smiling at me."Mina, my love, I can not believe you are still alive; I have missed you,” Max said, trying to hold her hand."Max, please hold it there. Are you even listening to yourself right now?” Mina cut him off."Of course, sweetie; I can not believe you are here with me every day and night. I wish you—”"Shut up, you idiot," Grace interrupted him as she walked in, looking different. She had lipstick and heels on."Grace, you have arrived," Max said, smiling with hope."Hello Max," Grace

I knew going to sleep in my room would be dangerous, so I locked the door and asked the guards to come upstairs in groups while armed, as the future was unknown at the time. “Is everything OK?" I heard Max ask the guard."Yes, everything is fine, Mr. Cruz; you can sleep," I said, attempting to appear calm."OK, thank you for letting me stay," he said, and I just smiled as I went into my room to grab my coat before returning to Miguel's room. After what I just heard, there was no way I was going to leave my baby alone all night. My thoughts were scattered, and I was having trouble reaching Diego. I was sure he was drunk by now.“What happened?" Neina inquired about why I had decided to have us sleep in Miguel's room.I cou

    CHAPTER 154SERENEWhen Diego learned Miguel had been kidnapped, he dashed out, promising to bring him back, but I knew I would never forgive myself if anything happened to my son. I tried to relax and think positively, but couldn't. I suspected Charlotte was playing a prank on me, but when I called her, she had already left for Dubai with Andrew. My heart was not in the right place, and I knew Grace had not taken him without permission.Who else could have done that?Nelly was the only one who raised a red flag in my mind; I would never use a gun on anyone before, but after all the techniques I learned in self-defense classes with my guards, I did not mind pulling the trigger for Miguel, so I quickly asked the guards to get the car ready and take me to Max's mansion. My instincts never lie, and Miguel would undoubtedly be in the hands of Ne

I have been following him for a while now, and I can not help but outwit him before he outwits us. When I found out that he had gone to see Serene, I used the plan I had devised to get their child and got my hands on that little boy. Knowing Serene would give anything to have that child back, I would play my cards right. I was about to leave my bedroom when I bumped into Max."Nelly, where have you been?" he inquired, his face untidy."What happened and is the shopping already done?" I pretended to ask."Do not act surprised; you know exactly what I am talking about. Where is Serene's son?" he inquired, his tone filled with concern as if he were the father

    CHAPTER 152SereneI was on my way to check on the current status of my hotel when I noticed a waitress attempting to force herself on Diego. I was so furious that I almost fired her for being so unethical with our customers. I told them to treat everyone with respect, and given Diego's state, I could not help but rush to his aid, even though a part of me wanted to back away. He was always drunk when things didn't go well, so I knew something was up.When he told me what had happened, I called George to learn more and see how I could help. I realize it sounded stupid, but I was not doing it for Diego. I could not bear the thought of his late father's time being wasted on Myers Enterprise. Even after assisting him, something else made me nervous—lab results.I just found out I am pregnant and have no idea what will happen next. I am not sure whether I should be

When I returned to Max's mansion, I only came to get my bags, so I moved into a hotel; I could not leave under the roof over a wolf who might kill me one day. I greeted Grace, who appeared to be both sad and happy that I was moving out. "You better get them for me," she whispered, hugging me.“I will not worry," I responded."Do not lose focus, Sonia," I said, hugging her too."I won't you take care,” she said, kissing my cheek when Nelly walked in.“Diego, are you leaving? I mean what's with all these bags?" she asked."Nothing, Nelly; I am just going to get some privacy," I replied."Where? I mean, this mansion is large enough to accommodate everyone. Where are you going?" she asked.“Yes, Diego, where are you going?" my uncle asked, as he walked in."I am moving out to have my privacy," I explained."What? No, you know we have all

    CHAPTER 150Serene I walked away since I could tell Diego was uncomfortable and Sofia appeared to be excited. I stood back and just admired how happy Charlotte and Neina appeared to be with their partners. Could such joy not locate me? Max smiled and blocked my way, so I considered walking away since I didn't want to be around him. "Ms. Brights, you look adorable tonight," he commented. "Thank you, Mr. Cruz; you do not look bad either," I said, about to walk away as he held my hand.“Uhmm sorry, how about we have a dance?" He said, but I was not in the mood, so I refused."Some other time, I have to get to something," I replied, walking away.Why would Max want us to dance when I do not want anything to do with him? Rina should have come here to dance with him because she likes rich men. I had not even finished thinking when I answered her video call. " Hey Rina, what a surprise?” I said as I didn't expect her to call."Calm down, madam, I know that reaction; did you turn down Max?"
