River had been following Spencer all day so she was very tired and decided to lie down on her bed. "Why am I being included in his meetings? See! All I got was tiredness."She complained to herself as she buried her face in the bed. She was about to close her eyes when she heard the door open, so she looked up slightly and her eyes caught Spencer's bulk approaching near her. But instead of standing up, she just continued to lie down and ignored Spencer's presence."What are you doing?" Spencer asked who was at the end of River's bed."Laying down Spence." She answered briefly."Aren't you going to eat?""Not anymore! I'm tired of following you around like a dog." She said, trying to close her eyes to rest. "You want us to do something?" Spencer said. River was forced to raise her head to look at Spencer because of his sarcasm."I'm tired, Spencer. So stop teasing me." She said, putting her face back on the bed. But only for a few seconds, River felt the movement of her bed and the s
River breathed a sigh of relief when one of Spencer's maid named Jane agreed to buy contraceptive pills for her at a pharmacy because Jane would also go to a market and grocery to buy food for her.She now has to use contraceptives secretly so that Spencer can't easily get her pregnant. It's not that she doesn't want to have a child, but if she has a child this way and the person who will give it to her doesn't love her yet, she would rather be an old woman than have a child with someone who has no love for her. In reality, she dreams of starting a family at the age of twenty-five or twenty-six. Then She will have a happy family because of her kind and loving husband and her lively babies. Then they will live quietly and full of joy. But unfortunately her dream will not happen because her father sold her to Spencer.Her dream was ruined because of her father's debt, so she is now full of suffering and sadness because of a huge debt that she did not benefit from. Again she cried on one
Spencer didn't go home to where he considered a safe house where River currently lives because he was mad at her. He also couldn't understand why he was so angry with River's behavior towards him earlier. He doesn't know why River doesn't want them to have children because he can make them live more than River's life was before.While he was being romanced by a downtown woman, he couldn't feel the happiness he wanted, instead he felt annoyed and River was always on his mind. River occupied his mind so much, so he immediately stopped the girl from making him happy in bed because he was not satisfied with it. The woman looked at him in surprise as she was temporarily stopped in his middle thigh."Why?" She asked.Immediately his eyebrows met, then he sat down and pulled the woman's hair."You have no right to ask me, whore."He said with irritation at the woman he hired to pleasure him. He quickly let go of the woman's hair then got off the bed and threw money on the bed."That's my pay
Spencer didn't come home to River for a few days so at least she was able to rest and do the things she wanted inside the house. She is still forbidden to leave the house, so her world only revolves around the four corners of where she lives."Jane, can you help me lift some flower bases? I was going to put them on the balcony." She smiled and pleaded with Jane to help her. Jane is one of the maids who are attached to her to watch over her."Alright Ms. River." Jane answered with a smile. Since River's move to the safe house, Jane is the only one who makes her feel better because the guards who watch her just keep watching around where she lives. It does not talk to her and just always observes their surroundings.After arranging some flower bases, they next arranged some plants on the balcony to beautify the relatively spacious area. In a few hours of soaking in the sun, they beautified the balcony and it looked like a garden with the amount of flowers and plants that surrounded it.
Spencer wanted to answer River's questions but he couldn't because of the pain he was feeling and the bullet wound in his body. While River was treating him, he was so weak and he couldn't stop himself from closing his eyes until he gradually fell asleep. Spencer slowly woke up when he felt a pain in his side. So he immediately looked at his side and gently held it. He was a little surprised when he was able to get the big band-aid covering his wound. But he also immediately remembered that River had treated him, so his eyes easily wandered and seemed to catch the woman's presence. But unfortunately, he didn't see her so he slowly sat up and leaned his back against the headboard of the bed. He was about to get off the bed when suddenly someone turned the doorknob so he quickly turned his gaze to the door and saw the image of River carrying a tray containing a few bowls and a glass of water. Immediately their eyes met, causing River to stop in shock."Jusmio!"River said in shock. He
When they arrived at the hospital, River was immediately examined by the specialist Lara who became her doctor when she was recovered from the hands of Spencer's enemy."What's the problem with her?"Spencer immediately asked Lara. Lara was busy getting BP and asking River questions while Spencer walked around bak en forth by their side. "Lara! What's up?" Spencer asked again, feeling annoyed by Lara's silence."Stop that Spencer! Wait, will you?" Lara seems to be choked by her stubborn cousin.It was only here that Spencer calmed down and kept quiet, then sat in the visitors chair and watched Lara and River. A few minutes passed. Lara finished looking at River, then immediately approached Spencer."River was lacking vitamins, she needs a nutritionist to monitor her appetite." Lara said."Isn't she sick or something? Because River seems to have lost a lot of weight." Spencer commented. "Oh' c'mon Spencer! River is just stressed too much that's why she loses weight. If you want River
Just one day later, Spencer went back to work even though his wound hadn't healed much. He was going down the stairs when he saw Jane who was now dressed. He suddenly remembered that today was a grocery day, so he called Jane."Jane! Come a minute." He called her.Jane immediately approached him and bowed."What do you want master Spynx?""Is your Ma'am River awake?" Spencer asked."Yes master Spynx," Jane answered."Can you ask her to go have groceries with you so she can get out of here and choose the foods she likes." Spencer said.Jane looked at him confused, but she immediately agreed without questioning "Good! Then, here."He paused to speak, then pulled out a wallet from his pocket and took a credit card from it and handed it to Jane."Give it to your Ma'am River." He continued.Jane immediately took the card and bowed."Yes master,""Alright, I'm leaving and please keep a close eye on your Ma'am River. I'll just let someone accompany you just in case." He reminded."Yes maste
Although River was confused by Jane's invitation to her, she still agreed to accompany Jane so that at least she could feel a temporary sense of freedom. She never tried to escape from Spencer's sight, so if there was a chance Spencer would allow her to go out. This is the chance, because Spencer is not his companion but only Jane."Do you know Ms. River this is the first time I saw Master Spynx being kind to his girl." Jane couldn't filtered her mouth from telling such things at River where she looked at Jane wiith surprise."How about with his other woman?" She asked Jane."Master Spynx doesn't want his girls to leave the mansion." Jane replied hung up."And why?" River asked full of curiosity."I don't know Ms. River what his reason is. All I know is that he doesn't allow his girls to go out of the mansion and he strictly orders them." Jane answered."That's right." River said shortly.Even though she wasn't sure what she was thinking, she knew why Spencer didn't want her girls to
Spencer's POVI didn't talk to River for a few days because I was ashamed. I am ashamed of what I have revealed about my life. It's not my kind to express my feelings to other people, especially when it comes to my past. I was convinced with River's charm that's why I couldn't help but let out a grudge against her. She just stares at me like I'm hypnotized."Master Spynx. The Mendez event is tomorrow." I suddenly woke up hearing Troy's voice in front of me. "Tomorrow?""Yes Master Spynx. As far as I know, big businessmen from different countries will be attending and I'm sure your parents will be attending tomorrow as well." Troy said. I let out a deep breath then rested my elbow on my desk. "Tell River to get ready for tomorrow. I'll take her with me." "Noted. Master Spynx." Troy said with a bow.Troy left my office so quickly that I leaned back in my chair and thought again. 'How can I deal with my parents without losing my temper? I need to act casual in front of them, especiall
River's POVAfter we got to the mansion, Spencer continued drinking alcohol and no matter how much I tried to stop him, he didn't stop, so I just let him. I know he's still hurt by his past and I can't blame him if he's struggling to forget that. If you were the one who was abused by your own parents, won't you hold a grudge? Even me who was sold and left in the air by my family had a grudge against them. How about Spencer? That had suffered even worse. Then suddenly I feel guilty about my evil plans with Spencer."Oh River! What are you going to do?" I whispered to myself.Again, I remembered Spencer sob while we were on the yacht. It didn't sink into my mind that a ruthless and no sympathy man like Spencer could even cry. The saying is true, when you are hurt. Tears will be uncontrollable no matter how much you hold back. You will still cry one's heart out no matter how strong you are. I was about to take a nap when I suddenly heard a loud crash from the other room so I got up with
Spencer's POVWe were halfway to the sea so I decided to take a break while sipping the wine in my goblet. I looked at the silent image of River sitting on the side. She's really beautiful in any angle, so it's impossible not to like her. He captured someone like me who is hard to love because of my past relationship, how about other men?"F*ck!" I cussed in my mind."You look angry."I turned around at River's sudden comment so my fisted palm suddenly calmed down."N,, no." I said"Eh, why did your fist suddenly stiffen? What's on your mind?"I was slightly shocked by what River said to me. I didn't think she could ask me this. But I didn't feel annoyed or angry at her straightforward question. Perhaps for me it's better for her to be honest with me than to just keep quiet on the side."Nothing, something just occurred to me."I said. Of course I won't admit to what's in my brain. I also don't want her to think that my admiration for her is deep. "Okay." Her short reply.I felt my n
River's POVDuring my few stays at the mansion, I also found delightment that also came with responsibility because I was assigned by Spencer to manage his foundation. I don't really think that one Spencer Vilavide cares about the elderly and children who have been abandoned by their families and orphaned by their parents. I know Spencer has many flaws. That is not hidden from my knowledge because I have seen and know what he does behind the public eye. He has illegal businesses that you really don't want to be involved in because of this chaotic system, but on the other hand, he has more legal businesses to cover up his true personality. Everyone knows that he is ruthless and impatient, so many people are afraid to provoke him. So I really can't believe that he created a foundation that is open to everyone who needs help.Even though I was tired coming home from the mansion, it was worth it because I was able to serve many elderly and children at the foundation. Their smiles made me
Spencer's POVRiver was only in her room for three days and I couldn't even visit her because my cousin strictly forbade me. It's really annoying because I'm restricted to my own home."Can't I still see her!?" I asked Troy, annoyed with a clenched fist."I'll ask Ms. Lara. Boss Spynx." Troy said with a bow.Troy easily headed to River's room where Lara was also staying. Lara acted as a bodyguard for a few days in River's room to make sure I didn't get close to River. I feel like I have a contagious disease that could infect River. It was only a few minutes before Troy came in so I stood up quickly."What's up Troy!?" I asked impatiently."You can see Ms. Madrigal now, boss Spynx." Troy answered.I quickly passed Troy then easily headed to River's room. I don't know but I'm really excited to see River even though I haven't seen her for three days. When the door opened, Lara and River's eyes were immediately fixed on me. I didn't pay attention to Lara, instead it was River who I immedi
River's POVBecause of what happened last night with Spencer, I suddenly got sick. I don't know but he is really strong in bed where I get bruises and body aches. Sometimes I think he's like a monster every time he has sex with me. "Mommy are you okay?"Spawn suddenly asked openly. When he found out that I'm not feeling well, He immediately came to the mansion and asked me the same question."I'm fine sweetie no worries!" I answered with a smile. "Nanny Jane said you're not fine." He insists."It was an hour ago my son but now I'm fine after taking medicine." I answered with a smile to convince him that I'm fine.Spawn and I turned our heads when someone suddenly opened the door and Spencer's bulk was exposed to us. Spawn immediately smiled when he saw his father. "Good evening dad." Spawn greeted his father as he approached us."Good evening hijo. What are you doing here? Don't you still have school?" Spencer asked, glancing at Spawn and looking back at me."I came here when I hea
Spencer's POVI woke up when I felt River's soft hair on my cheek so I turned my eyes to him and slowly moved my body closer to her. I smell her neck and kiss her shoulder. River moaned softly and moved causing me to smile."She's still beautiful even when she's asleep." I whispered praising her then slowly got up and stood.Before I entered the bathroom, I glanced at the beautiful image of River lying face down on her bed. She was still fast asleep and obviously tired from what we did last night. I suddenly smirked when I remembered her moving above me. It was obvious that she was new to that experience so I didn't expect her to be good at it because I also really like her lack of awareness when it comes to such lewdness. I bit my lip as I entered the bathroom.After I showered, I left her room and went to my room with a towel. My maids saw me and greeted me good morning. I just nod and passed them. I know they were surprised when I came out of River's room but they probably don't ta
Before I start this chapter. I'm going to start using the first point of view and second point of view to make my writing easier. Thank you for understanding.—River's POVI always thought about Spencer's offer to marry him for a few days. I don't know if it's an offer or a proposal because it looks like a proposal, it's just that we're not lovers so it can't be called a proposal but an offer."Ugh! I really don't know what goes through Spencer's mind!" I whispered to myself. While I was under the shower, I suddenly thought then."What if I marry him? What will happen after that? Yeah! Let's say I'm already a Vilavide who is rich and powerful because of his last name I carry but on the other hand Spencer's behavior might get even worse and he will legally have me as his property."Possibilities ran through my mind while taking a shower until I finished taking it and was still thinking about Spencer's offer to me.What about my plans? I have to stick to my plan if I want freedom. But
Spencer gets annoyed every time River shows weakness in front of her ex and he doesn't want to see her woman considered special to his son, like a puppy in front of her betrayer."Troy!"He called his butler. Troy quickly approached and bowed to him."What is that Master Spynx?""What should I do with River so she can learn to deal with the people who hurt her?"He suddenly asked. Troy seemed surprised by his question so he didn't answer immediately and he noticed it."I know you are surprised by my question Troy! But I want you to answer me seriously."He commented with a frown. Troy hem then stood up straight."You better talk to Ms. Madrigal thoroughly Master Spynx."Troy answered. Spencer's frown deepened at his butler's answer."That's why I asked you Troy because I don't want to show any emotions to River. I don't want to see her looking miserable in front of me because of her stupid ex!" He snorted while taking a sip of his wine."But Master Spynx. That's the only way you can g
