"Bes, what's the result, positive?" She asked while looking at me. I was trembling as I presented the pregnancy test to her. She quickly took the PT in my hand and looked at it. It was breathtaking to see the result.

 

 

 "Oh my god!" I could see the fear in my best friend's eyes. I just closed my eyes and held my face. I didn't expect to get pregnant. How could I tell Travis this?

 

 

  “Trish, what am I going to do? I'm afraid to tell your brother I'm pregnant. He might not believe me! You know our situation, don't you? You know, your brother just married me for his company. And I'm not the one he really loves. I'm nothing to your brother. So how's that? " I couldn't help but cry. I felt Trish hug me.

 

 

 “Bes, stop crying. Let's think of a way, ok? " I stopped crying. I slowly moved away from Trish's embrace and looked up at her.

 

 

 “Did you think about how? Because I haven't. I don't know what to do. Because..Travis was very drunk that night and I'm sure he doesn't remember that I was the one he was making love with."

 

  My tears flowed again. I remembered again what happened that night.

 

 

 "..B-Because" — because — because while we were making love. The one she mentions is not my name. It's Mikaela Mayell. Trish, Mayell's still the one he really loves. Even if he's drunk, the name of her ex still rings in his ears. "

 

 

 "What!?" Did he mention Mayell's name? My older brother is really stupid. God! He's crazy about the woman who left him and chose someone else! That man is really stupid!”

 

 She said angrily. Eventually, she stopped for a moment, as if she was thinking. A few minutes later, she spoke again.

 

 

 "I thought something Bes, I know you love my brother. But with what he's doing to you, with his treatment of you who can no longer be human, it's better that you leave him. It's better that you just stay away, Bes. Talk to him and say that you will set him free. But don't say you're pregnant. He doesn't deserve to know that. I'm here. I'll take care of my niece or nephew. Don't lock yourself in like my older brother, Don't you want to be a fashion designer, right? Keep it up when you give birth.”

 

 

 I stopped and thought about what Trish said. She had a point. After all, I'm so tired of what Travis is doing to me. I'm thinking about myself and my baby now. Maybe it's time for me to go away and leave him.

 

 

  He also won't believe that we have a child if I tell him. I don't want to force myself on someone who didn't really love me from the beginning.

 

 

   I'm going to set you free, Travis. I'm going to let you chase after Mayell. I wiped away my tears and looked at Trish. I smiled at her before I spoke.

 

 

"You're right, Trish, maybe it's time for me to let Travis go. I've made up my mind. I'll talk to him and I'll leave this house.”

 

  A sad smile posted on Trish's lips before taking my hand and speak.

 

 

 “Even though it's sad that you're leaving here at home, it's OK to confin yourself to someone like my brother. I'll help you, Bes. I'll take care of everything. " I smiled before hugging my friend.

 

 

 "Thank you, Trish. Thank you...”

    Aaliyah Eunice's POV “Aah! Manang's pineapple juice is really delicious!” I said happily as I lowered the glass. I hoped Manang had made a lot of it so that I could take some to my room later and have something to drink while thinking about my designs. I put my drinking glass in the sink to wash. I'm used to this routine. I don't rely on our maids when it's like this, especially if I can do it. Manang raised me to know all the housework. Even though my parents are wealthy and we have maids at home, she still taught me for my sake and because I can use it one day. She also said that I need to learn because I am a woman, and it is good for a woman to know about these kinds of things, especially when I get married so that I can take care of my future husband. So, one day, I will cook Travis his favorite foods because he will be my husband! Then I would wash the dishes we ate while he helped me.

    Everyone is still staring at Travis. Despite the hurtful things he said earlier, I still can't help but worry about him. I, who loved him secretly, was hurt by his words; how much more for him, who was betrayed by his girlfriend? He loves her. The pain must be double or triple. Our attention was diverted when Aunt Kim spoke. “Honey, why did you do that?" "Didn't you see that you hurt your son?” "It's better for him to know the truth, honey, that he's being cheated on by the woman he loves. It's just right that we arrange his marriage with Eunice; we're sure Travis' life will be fine. "She's a kind, beautiful, hardworking, and intelligent woman. The day will come when they'll learn to love each other even more if they live together. "Am I right, Eunice?” I straightened myself up when Uncle Troy turned to me. God, is this real? Am I really getting married to Travis? It feels like it was just earlier when I dreamed of marrying the man I've loved for so long. But al

    Eunice's point of view "Bes, are you ready?" They're waiting downstairs. I took a deep breath. This is it, Eunice; face the decision you made. I stood up and gave Trish a weak smile. "I'm ready; let's go." We are now at Aunt Kim's house; mom and dad are also here. They're talking about what happened yesterday and, of course, the wedding they're talking about. Now we will find out about Travis' decision and mine. If we both agree, we'll get married next week, This is according to what Trish told me. She heard Uncle Troy and Aunt Kim talking. Wow, we'll get married so soon; will I really be tied down? Can't I still do what I want? How about my dreams? Will I just be a housewife? I hope that even if we get married, I can still do what I want, especially my dream. When Trish and I got down, we went straight to the dining area, where our parents were waiting. "Oh, they're here already." Take a seat. Honey, where's your son? "He's the only

    We stopped at a door near the maid's quarters. What are we doing here? He took something out of his pocket—a key? I suddenly felt nervous! Oh no, don't tell me... Oh geez, Eunice, stop overthinking! But why here? Why is there a room here? Even if we're getting married, I don't want to do that thing! When he opened the door, he pulled me inside and let go of my hand. I closed my eyes tightly in fear. Geez, what are we going to do here? “What are you doing? You look stupid,” he said. Huh? I slowly opened my eyes and saw his face. His brow furrowed. But wait, what did he say? Me, stupid? I was about to retort, but he quickly turned away from me. So rude! But I was amazed when I saw the inside of the room. “Wow!” I exclaimed in amazement as I looked around. There were so many paintings! They were all beautiful. Who could they be? Why are they hidden here? “Come here, Aaliyah!” I was startled by Travis' shout. Why did he have to shout? I was still enjoying what I

    “Do you, Travis, take Eunice to be yours? And do you, Eunice, take Travis to be yours? Do you both promise your hearts to be with each other? Will you walk hand in hand wherever life's journey takes you? Will you keep living, learning, loving, and growing together for the rest of your lives?” “I do, I do,” Travis and I both answered. We looked at each other, but I couldn't see any emotion in his eyes. He was just going through the motions of the ceremony. “And now for the rings, Travis. Please place this ring on Eunice and repeat after me,” The judge said. Travis nodded. I looked up at Travis again as he took the ring and repeated what the judge said. “I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and vows, to cherish always and forever.” My heart ached as he said each word without any emotion, and it hurt to think that everything he said was fake. I took the ring and repeated what the judge said, looking directly at Travis as I did so. “I give

    FASTFORWARD I was tired when I got out of Travis's car; I didn't expect that it would be nightfall already. mom and Mommy Kim talked a lot, and they even had a drink. Well, Trish and I just had wine, while our parents and Travis had hard drinks. I looked down and saw Trish getting out of the other car. She walked towards me. “Congratulations again, Bes! I'll go ahead, okay? I'm really tired. Good night! Love you, mhuaaa!” After giving me a kiss, she walked into the house. My parents were already inside, and they said they were going to rest because they were going to the company the next day. I also walked inside and checked on Travis. He was talking to his parents. I shrugged and went straight to the kitchen; I was thirsty. Actually, I went to the kitchen because I didn't know where I was supposed to go. It was our first night as a married couple, and I didn't want to just barge into his room. So, I stayed in the kitchen and waited for him to finish talking t

    I woke up with the sun shining brightly on my face. I smiled and got up. I stretched my arm, oh! I slept well? Even though I was in a different room and even though my night wasn't good. Oh, I remember I transferred my sleeping place here at the foot of the bed. I might get stepped on if king Travis passes by, who knows. I looked at the bed to check if my husband was still there. Oh, He's still there and sleeping soundly. I checked the time, and it was already seven in the morning. Why hasn't he woken up to prepare for work? He should already be in the office by eight. I want to wake him up, but he might get angry again, sigh. Let it be, maybe he's tired and sleepy, and that's why he hasn't woken up yet. I got up and went straight to the bathroom to wash up. While brushing my teeth, something suddenly came to my mind. I know that the maids are preparing the breakfast at this time, and I want to help them to prepare the breakfast. Yes, that's right! I quickly

    “It wasn't Nanny Linda who made your breakfast today, son. Your wife cooked all of that,” Daddy Troy said with a smile. Travis stopped eating and looked at me in disbelief. “You cooked all of this?” He pointed at the bacon, omelette, and toasted bread in front of him. “Yes, I helped Nanny Linda prepare breakfast. I woke up early,” I said, feeling shyly. He nodded. “It's delicious. I'm glad I didn't go to work today. I got to taste your cook. Thank you, baby.” I stopped getting the omelette when he kissed me on the forehead. Oh gosh, what is happening to him? Maybe he woke up beautifully, that's why he's treating me this way? He's so sweet towards me. “Honey, they look so sweet together, don't they?” Mommy Kim said, smiling. My cheeks feel hot because everyone was watching us. “It's nice to see them like that. Keep it up. We're happy to see you both like that, but for now, let's eat. The food has been waiting,” Daddy Troy said. We all nodded in respon

    Travis “What's bothering me, Hubby, is who he is. Why was he looking at me? Or let's say, at the house? It's suspicious because people don't just enter this place without living here.” As I listened to my wife, I could hear the fear in her voice as she recounted the story. I turned my gaze back to the gate outside. She's right, you don't just enter this subdivision; security is tight. It is suspicious. Or maybe he has strong connections, so he got in easily. When money is involved, people change. They follow orders easily. I wondered if the person Aaliyah saw and the one who sent me the dead bird were the same. Tsk. It's not impossible... this has started, and he targeted my wife first. “Does Trish know this?”I asked before gently pulling her closer to put my arm around her shoulders. I noticed her rubbing her arm, a sign that she was uncomfortable. “Yes, I told her. I couldn't settle down that night; I couldn't sleep well because of the fear, Hubby. I wanted to tell yo

    Travis What the heck is this? Who sent me this kind of sh*t?! My forehead furrowed as I saw a piece of paper inside the box. Slowly, I came over and took it. Something was written, so I read it. 'Congratulations on the merger of Dela Cerna Corp and TDC clothing line, as well as the fashion show. You look very happy and contented, Dela Cerna, but bad news – gradually, your happy days will end soon. Good luck! Ps: I hope you like my little gift to you, Dela Cerna. See you soon...' D*mn it! Who is this? I clenched my fist with the paper. Then I threw it back in the box. Angrily, I went to my swivel chair and faced the intercom to call my secretary. “Santos, come here, now!” I slammed my hand on the intercom, then leaned back on my swivel chair, massaging my temples. The door opened. “Yes, sir? What do you need--Holy sh*t!” Santos paused, unable to believe what he saw – a dead bird on the floor. He looked at me with concern before fully entering. “Lock the door,”

    Aaliyah I was busy designing Mr. Tan's tuxedo when the door opened. I didn't bother to look up. “Mam Aaliyah?” It's Jam, my secretary; she was the one who entered. “Yes? Do you need something, Jam?” I answer without looking at her. My attention was still focused on what I'm doing. “This is the copy of the contract signed by the models that you requested,” she politely said. I nod and gesture for her to just place them on the side of my table. She quietly follows my instruction. “Thank you, Jam,” I express my gratitude after she's done. “Welcome, Mam. Do you need anything else? Would you like coffee or juice?” she asks again. “No, not for now. I'll ask for juice later when I finish what I'm working on. You can go out; I'll call you when I send for the juice. Thank you,” I reply, my gaze still on the sketch pad. “Okay, Mam. I'll leave now,” she nods and exits. Suddenly, I remember something I need to ask Jam. When I look up, she's near the door, so I quickly

    I was surprised when all the models greeted me with applause backstage. They were happily clapping. “You were amazing, Tita Aaliyah!” “We watched you on the screen here; you were absolutely fantastic.” “Congrats, Mom! You were still amazing!” “You're truly legendary, Mam Aaliyah!” “You looked so sexy walking earlier, Mam Aaliyah. Your presence was captivating.” “You're really different on stage, Mam Aaliyah. You carried yourself so well.” “Yes, especially when Mam Aaliyah winked at Sir Travis!” “Yeah, it was so romantic! You and Sir are a perfect match!” I suddenly felt embarrassed by the comments from the adult models. Gosh, they saw that. But it's heartwarming that they're all here to congratulate me. They really waited for me to finish. “Thank you, thank you! You really surprised me. You were all amazing earlier. Remember what I said, okay? Don't rush back to the backstage immediately after our final walk. I have an announcement, okay?” They

    It still feels different when someone admits to you that they idolize you. I didn't expect it to be like this. And it's evident from her that she idolizes me because she even knew about my past role as Alice Mendez. It seems like she noticed and read my thoughts. She chuckled modestly while holding one of my hands. “It may not be obvious, but I'm your fan, Miss Aaliyah. I'm glad to finally see you. I tried several times to meet you, but it never matched my schedule,” she explained with a smile that made her even more beautiful, if I'm not mistaken. Trishana mentioned to me that Vivien is one of her admired models. She'll surely be delighted when she finds out she's here. “She's telling the truth, Mrs. Dela Cerna. She really insisted on coming with me. We almost had a disagreement at first because I didn't want to bring her,” Mr. Montenegro said with a smile before turning to his wife. “If you didn't bring me today, I would have ignored you for a week, and you wouldn't be

    Before we could reach our husband, there were many visitors who blocked our way to greet us, exchange pleasantries, and take pictures. Trisha was even subtly pinching my arm, eager to approach her husband. But what could we do? We couldn't just leave the guests. That's why we went outside to help Travis talk to the guests. However, we weren't able to join them.When a waiter passed by, she even got wine, taking two and giving me one. Tsk, she forgot that I wasn't going to drink even if it's just a little. I'm going to walk on the stage later. But it's okay, I won't finish it. I might enjoy it later.If the husband hadn't called the woman we were talking to, she wouldn't have left. “Finally, I thought we wouldn't be able to leave. Come on! Walk faster so we can get to our husbands.” She pulled me, disregarding our appearance and posture. We were getting close when Travis noticed me. His serious face earlier slowly brightened when he saw me. A beautiful smile appeared on his

    AaliyahEvent Day As early as noon, Trish and I were already at the company to check the auditorium if everything was in order and nothing was missed. Trish was assigned to check everything, including the catering. Travis trusted her to make sure everything was okay. Meanwhile, I was busy with the dresses that the models were going to wear. The makeup artists arrived early and set up their equipment. They arranged their makeup on the vanity mirrors in the dressing room. The models should start getting ready at exactly three o'clock.. We told them to come early and not be late. Everyone was busy with their assigned tasks. I was just finishing up my work, So that when it's my turn to get make up, everything would be settled and there would be no more problems. At 2 pm, other models started to arrive, including my daughter who was super excited.“Sweetie, you're early. Where are your friends? Aren't they with you?” I asked her sweetly as she moved away from my embrace.

    Trish and I continued to fix the dresses. We're bringing them down to the first floor, where the models' dressing room will be. Good thing my headache cooperated and went away before noon. Now I'm observing the people setting up the Auditorium. They're arranging the tables, chairs, and lights. I was in that state when I felt hands creeping around my waist. I smiled because just from the scent alone, I already knew who it was - my husband. No one else would give me a back hug like that. “How are you feeling, Wife? I bumped into Trisha, she told me you had a headache earlier. Are you okay now?” He asked affectionately but with a hint of concern. I was surprised by what he said. Trish can be really talkative sometimes. She even told her brother. But that's just how she is. When it comes to serious matters, I can always count on my friend. “I'm okay now, Hubby. I already took some medicine,” I replied while still watching the people fixing the lights. “Are you sure? Why

    Aaliyah I was sitting on my swivel chair with my eyes closed, feeling sleepy and having a headache because I didn't sleep well. I'm disturbed by the person I saw in front of our house last night. I can't get it out of my mind. It's really scary that someone was watching us. But it's strange because the subdivision has strict management and only well-known people live there. Prominent individuals. The person standing in front of the house was wearing a jacket and a hat, so I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman. And the question is, what is he/she doing at this time of night in front of our house, wearing that kind of outfit? Even though I didn't see his/her face, I'm sure he/she was looking at me, at our room with Travis. Because of what happened, I couldn't sleep well and now I have a headache when I have so many things to do. I went to work early today because I still have to prepare the clothes that the models will wear tomorrow. We're getting ready for four outfit chan
