Marietta’s POV

With Clara still fidgeting, I knew she wasn't done.

In a day, I've lost a child, my first love, and even my staff.

I have Gloria and Katty threatening my existence.

What else could I possibly be leaving for?

“Is there something else left you want to say, Clara?”

“I–”

“Go on. I'm listening,” I shut my eyes.

With Bella's hand holding me firm. I waited for Clara to speak.

“You've been framed for reckless drinking and driving,” Clara concluded.

A headache struck me instantly. Almost tripping me off my balance.

I held Bella tighter, as my visions became a bit blurry.

It was okay enough that the Sterlings conspired against me.

“Bella, they've taken all I have,” I whispered.

Trying so hard to reason everything Clara had just spoken to my hearing.

My heart failed me. And my head ached more.

If only the tumor could kill me right now.

“Marietta!” Bella called.

But it was too late. I had already lost my consciousness.

  • His Regret: Winning Back Her Heart   Chapter 61 - A New Life

    Marietta’s POV “What do you say?” He asked again. I was about to respond when I heard Bella’s footsteps. I quickly hung up and pretended nothing happened. I was shivering so badly that Bella had to get me some of her clothes. “Here,” she stretched the cup of coffee towards me. “Thanks,” I gently placed the cup of coffee on the table while I changed into a new set of dry clothes. I watched Bella aim for the room, and the next minute, she was back with a hair dryer. “Your hair is wet.” She broke the silence. “Thanks,” was all I could say. The silence continued for a long time. And only the air dryer alone was the sound that filled the air. “Marietta,” “I'm listening,” I answered bluntly. I'm not sure what my feelings are right now. But I could tell I was losing interest in everything. “We are at risk,” Bella started. A conversation I wasn't ready to listen to. I felt so angry within myself. But I knew someone had to say it. I've got nothing to lose but Bella still has

Reporter: Tragic news just in—The renowned youngest celebrity, Michael, with more, has been confirmed dead and buried.Katty: That’s heartbreaking. And to make matters worse, his wife recently lost their daughter as well.Reporter: Such a devastating loss for the family…“Katty?” I gasped in surprise. Could she be the one behind everything I've been going through?“Are you surprised?” A masculine voice echoed from behind. Since the man is always in the mask. I couldn’t guess who he was. Quickly, I switched off the Television and laid back in bed. “Is there anything you want to say to me?”“Your ex-wife is here. Just like you requested,” he replied. My hopes rekindled. I never thought I would see her again. “Marietta's here?” I asked repeatedly. But the man wouldn't answer. Just the

  • His Regret: Winning Back Her Heart   Chapter 63 - Loving To Forgive

    Marietta’s POV I feel so lost and confused. Blinded by revenge, and sorry for the past. Could this be a way of making up for the past? Or a way of getting my revenge on everyone who has hurt me in one way or the other? Maybe I was just doing too much. “I'm sorry,” “No. Don't be sorry.” Michael reached out to me. “I abandoned you. No, I abandoned you and Valerie,” Michael broke down in tears. “I wasn't thinking,” Michael grabbed my hand. “I made you lose your baby. Our daughter. And, I'm sorry about it,” I bursted into tears. I've never seen Michael this sober. Those days he came to me were the saddest time of my life. I had lots of work on my desk. I was mad at him for abandoning us. And right now, things are getting so messy. Now that we are in this situation, are we just going to abandon this mission? “What do we do?” I asked, wiping off my tears. “We can just tell them we are not interested anymore,” Michael suggested.“They don't look like they are going to let us

    Marietta’s POV Donovan introduced us to everyone working for him. And I agree that this was the best decision I've ever made. In a short while, my mind drifted back to Bella. “Is it Valerie?” Michael's voice startled me. Handing me a bottle of yogurt and a hamburger. “You can have mine. I'm not hungry,” Michael replied. “You have to eat something.” “Never mind. I can manage. I feel okay just by looking at you,” he said. I'm sure he was still feeling guilty for what he did. He could barely look me in the eye. “I can't wait for us to be done with this whole thing,” Michael finally broke the silence. “Me too,” I answered. I'm sure everyone knows why we ended up like this. Some were aware of our history since we were once celebrities. Here, Donovan made it clear that everyone is equal regardless of the life they lived while they were outside. “Do you want to go outside?” “Yes,” I answered quickly. “I feel people are staring too much.” We were about to leave when Donovan’

    Marietta’s POV“Your date?” I looked behind me to be sure I wasn't dreaming. Clara stood behind me smiling sheepishly as I tried to get a grasp of the whole situation. I wasn't even balanced yet when I heard something pop behind me. “Happy birthday Marietta!” A lady shouted from behind. Thinking we were the only ones here. I was shocked to see everyone coming out of hiding with a big grin on their faces. Michael, on the other hand, wass still on hisknees, waiting for me to accept his proposal. “I don't even know you,” I replied confused. “Hey baby, do you remember me?” A woman in a red dress approached me with a smile plastered on her face. Hugging me tighter and urging me to say yes to the man in front of me. The one Clara had said was one of the richest men in America. “Excuse me, do I know you?” I asked, trying to shove her off. Everything looks too good to be true. And if this was a dream, it would be the best I've ever had. “It's Bella,” she answered. I looked around

    Marietta’s POVI blinked back in disbelief as I watched the maid nod in affirmation.“I’m the first?” I repeated while I watched the maid smile back at me.“Yes,” the maid answered before bowing her head.“My name is Rita, and it’s nice to have you here,” she said, snapping her fingers. Just then, the other maids made their way out, lining themselves up, while some approached me, standing to my left and right. “Can we take off your clothes?” The maids asked, and I surrendered to their will, my eyes fixed on Rita.It took the maids two hours to get me dressed and ready for an occasion I know nothing about. “Why–”“Master asked us to get you dressed up for dinner,” Rita, the chiefmaid, replied.“Dinner? Like a date?” I stuttered in surprise.“Kind of,” Rita answered, signaling to the maids.As I watched some of them open the makeup tool in front of me, others started to adorn my hair with beautiful bands and jewelry.My heart raced fast as I saw the dress that was brought for me by R

    Michael’s POVI couldn’t get my mind off the kiss I had shared with Donovan yesterday. It has been wet, hot, sweet, yet brief. And it has been fickle with my heart, but it has also messed with my brain, leaving me helpless.“Donovan,” I spoke his name out loud, as I watched the door open almost immediately.“Can I come in?” Donovan asked, his eyes settling on the bottle of alcohol I had set in front of me.Well, speak of the devil and he shall appear.“Yes, what did you find out about Katty and Gloria?” I asked impatiently.As much as I tried to take my mind off Marietta, I couldn’t. My thoughts have been divided ever since I shared that kiss with Donovan.Who am I? I can’t possibly be drawn to a man like myself. I need to visit a therapist. It seems I might not be able to handle this myself.“Marietta has been abducted,” Donovan replied with his head bowed.I jumped out of my seat with my fist clenched and my eyes fixed on Donovan.I moved closer to him to be sure I heard him corre

Not just that, the cool air on my skin also confirmed that I was now in a better place.My vision was blurry at first, but later cleared upon feeling a touch on my skin.“Aiden, what are you–”I was stopped with his lips on mine, each accompanied by his tongue.It lasted for a while before we finally broke off panting heavily. His eyes scrutinized mine, as he placed his forehead on mine, his breath fanning my face.“Etta?” Bella called before halting in her tracks. “Am I interrupting something?” “I’ll just leave,” Aiden whispered and left quickly, letting me know that he would be back very soon.“Bella,

    Marietta’s POV“Aiden,” I grabbed his shirt tighter, my breath fanning his bare neck.“I love it when you call my name,” He smirked before letting go of me.I could swear I was already getting wet beneath. I could feel my natural lubricant beneath me. I didn’t want him to stop, but I don’t want to continue either. “I’m sorry,” he said, panting heavily.I could tell he had to control himself from taking me right now. I could see that through his heavy breath and his red ears.“The maids will attend to you,” he said, taking a few steps back. “But Aiden…” I cleared my throat as he turned towards me. “What? Do you want to tell me something, Pookie?” “No,” I waved my hand and looked away from him. I don’t know if it’s just me but he looks damn hot, that I just couldn’t resist him whenever he’s close.Just then, a knock landed on the door, interrupting my thoughts.“Who is it?” I inquired, wrapping my clothes around me quickly.The master asked us to attend to you,” the maids chorused

All through the whole explanation, Aiden had said nothing, but his eyes only lingered on mine.

All I wanted was to escape from my reality, and now I didn’t know I had dragged Aiden along with my shitty life.“What am I supposed to do with you?” I asked, but Aiden cut in abruptly.“Don’t leave me,” was all he could come up with as he reached for my hand, his eyes desperately boring into mine.“Do everything you want with me, but don’t leave me, Marietta.” he shook his head, rubbing his hand against mine.“But-” “No buts, please. Stay with me,” he pleaded with tears welling up in his eyes. “Can you just trust me this once.

Pity wasn’t what I wanted right now. All I wanted was to win back her heart. To defeat our enemies and make them bow at our feet. To make Gloria and Katty pay for what they have done.
