Dahlia POVAfter they got ready, they went out to have dinner. Dahlia and Travis walked hand in hand to the dining hall. They immediately found the table because they saw Emery frowning at the table."Why are you two taking so long?" Emery asked when they got closer."Because we are still fixing our clothes," she explained.She held her breath. "Okay. Let's eat. I've been hungry for a while," Emery replied and started eating.Travis and Dahlia ate too."Let's go swimming later," Emery broke the silence."Alright! Let's enjoy our outing! This is just once," Dahlia then replied."Love." She turned to Travis and saw that his spoon was facing her. She smiled at him. She misses her husband's sweetness. She opened her mouth and ate what he gave her."Delicious?" he asked. Dahlia nodded and smiled at him."Ahem." They both looked at Emery."Respect a single," she told them.Dahlia laughed."Just look for a boyfriend," she said to Emery."I only want one, though.""Who is it? Your ex in South
Dahlia POV Travis is currently carrying Emery to her room. Dahlia can see the tightness of her hug around her husband's neck. She even buried her face in his neck. When they got to Emery's room, her husband put her on her bed. "Are you okay, Emery?" she asked. Emery nodded at her and closed her eyes. Her husband moved closer to her. "We'll leave you alone, BFF; take a break and rest. Just call me when you need something," Dahlia told her, leading her husband out. "Okay," Emery replied. When they got out of Emery's room, they entered their room. She sat on their bed and sighed. "Is there a problem with my wife?" Travis asked her and sat next to her. "N-nothing. I'm just wondering. Emery is good at swimming, but why did she drown? I also saw that when you were rescuing her, it was as if her lips moved toward you. She also coughed forcefully, and no water came out of her mouth," she explained. His forehead wrinkled. "You're overthinking, Love. Maybe you're just missing out," T
Dahlia POV "Did you enjoy it?" asked Travis."Super! Thank you, Love." Dahlia gave him a sweet kiss. They walked on the beach holding their hands and saw the sun setting. She let go of his grip and ran to the cradle. She sat and watched the sunset. Her husband also sat next to her. He wrapped his hand around her waist, and she smiled. She hopes when they return to Manila, she will bear a child. She hopes everything doesn't change. Her smile disappeared as she remembered something that was bothering her. "Love," she called. "Hmm," "I was going to ask you something. Don't be angry." She looked at him and immediately bowed down. She couldn't look into his eyes. "If we still don't bear a child when we return to Manila, I hope you can still wait. I hope your cold treatment won't happen again." She closed her eyes after saying that, and she heard his sigh. "You know I really want to have children. I love you, Dahlia; I love you so much, but I can't live without children. It's like an
Dahlia was currently getting dressed to go to the bar. She'll wear a bikini and a knitted blazer, but suddenly her husband wouldn't let her. Instead of her choosing what to wear, Travis made the decision. She was wearing a dark turquoise high-neck linen dress. It has a long slit on the right thigh and was backless. "You're so hot, wife," he mumbled. He wore an open shirt with shorts and was handsome in his outfit. We also had the same color of clothes, so we were matchy-matchy. "Thank you. You too, Love." Dahlia smiled widely at him. "Come here. Let me hug you." Dahlia got closer to him and gave him a very tight hug. After a while, someone knocked on their room. Maybe it's Emery. She let go of his embrace and opened the door for her friend. She was wearing a bikini and just topped it with a see-through blazer. "Hello, BFF. Are you ready?" Emery asked. She turned her back and saw Travis approaching them. "Yes, we're ready. I'll just get my bag," Dahlia answered. Sh
This is the last day of their outing. Dahlia woke up early to see her husband still sleeping next to her. He was hugging her and still snoring. She didn't sleep well because she couldn't understand what happened last night. She was very hurt by her husband's betrayal. She wanted to ask but didn't want to because their misunderstanding might start again. She started crying and went to the bathroom to wash her face and get ready. She doesn't want her husband to see her like this.Dahlai looked in the mirror and smiled. She saw a tired woman in the mirror. She can't even smile at all. She held her breath and hadn't gone out that night; she wished she hadn't looked for her husband then so she wouldn't have been hurt like this. "Wife?" her husband called her. "Y-yes? I'm here. I'm just going to take a shower; just wait there." "Can I take a shower with you?" he asked. "N-No! I mean, I'm already taking a shower. Later, love. I love you!" she quickly turned on the shower and removed he
A beautiful gate opened before them. Tristan opened it for them to enter. "This is our secret place; it's exclusive to people who come here, like the VIPs. We don't want to show it to everyone because we're keeping it," he said while opening the gate. They take care of it because everything is polished and clean. Dahlia could see a vast garden park; it was like a greenhouse somehow. They entered, and she saw a tall tree in the middle. "What's the name of that tree?" Emery asked. The tree was stunning; it was like a glorious evening sky with dashes of pink and purple. "Old Wisteria," Travis said. "Yes. It's an Old Wisteria," Tristan smiled when he saw the flowers of the Wisteria tree falling. "Do you know there is a story behind this tree? It was my great-grandmother's sister's love story. That's why we take great care of this tree." They look closely at the tree, and it becomes even more beautiful up close. "My grandmother said this tree symbolizes the first love of my great-
"You're annoying, Tristan! I said MINE, that means MINE! Why did you steal the ball from me?" Emery yelled at Tristan. Dahlia could see Emery stomping in annoyance while Tristan laughed at her. They were currently playing volleyball. Travis and Dahlia were in teams, while Emery and Tristan. Dahlia just laughs every time the two of them fight. Emery was the only one who stole the ball and always kicked Tristan. That's why the ball didn't catch either of them instead of keeping the ball. "Mine!" Emery said, but it seemed to stay in the air because the ball didn't land on her. After all, Tristan stole it from her. "Fuck, Tristan! How often do I have to tell you that if I say MINE? I'll be the one to hit and not you! You're an ugly brat!" Emery said, annoyed. Tristan laughed very loudly. "The ball landed in my place, so the ball is MINE ," he said while laughing. Emery took a position at the back to serve. Dahlia was focused and prepared to hit the ball. She saw Emery suddenly s
Dahlia tried to get out of Emery's grip but struggled. Emery also scratched her face."Stop it, Emery. Why are you acting like this!" Dahlia shouted at her."Travis is mine! He's mine!" Emery exclaimed with her lungs out. "Emery! What are you doing?" she turned around, and it was Travis and Tristan. Travis immediately came to them and pulled Emery away from her. When she was free, Travis hugged her."Tristan, stop Emery, please," Travis said. Tristan approached Emery and pulled her away. "Travis, you're mine! I like you, don't you like me too? We even kissed at the bar! Dahlia already knew, so we don't have anything to hide anymore," Emery shouted while crying. Travis turned to Dahlia and shook his head."Stop it, Emery! I don't like you; I love Dahlia. So please, let's stop this nonsense. Tristan, please take Emery to her room," Travis said. Tristan nodded and pulled Emery away from the couple. He carried her like a sack, and the woman was helpless, so the only thing she could do wa
Princess Dahlia Sofia I sighed as I stared into a large mirror, looking at my reflection. I smiled when I saw a smiling figure behind me. She's so beautiful in her white gown. “How is our Bride? You seem nervous, ah," she smiled at me and I shook my head. "It's like I'm getting married for the first time." I shook my head. She held my arm and our eyes met. "Just relax, Best Friend, okay? This is your special day so enjoy it. You're so beautiful right now, you're going to hit me hard," Emery told me with a laugh. It's been a few weeks since she recovered from the shooting. I thought she would disappear from our lives but I am glad because she still fought even in critical condition. "Thank you for being here at my wedding and now, you are my maid of honor." I winked at her so she laughed at me. "I am very happy because everything is going to be okay. I knew to myself that you and Travis were meant to be in the first place but you know I'm crazy...It's all my fault--" "Le
I escorted Dahlia and the children out first to make sure they were safe. As for those women, we gave them towels and blankets to somehow cover their naked bodies. When they got out, the police and NBI came. I quickly returned to the house and looked for Emery. I heard crying in the distance so I followed it. My eyes widened to see a man kissing a woman. It has been put on but it still has a cover. I quickly pulled that man away from the woman. Damn! This person is a pig and evil! I didn't notice that the man was different. I thought Mr. Ronaldo but it's different. I felt a focus on my head so I immediately stopped punching the man. When I saw the man I punched, I immediately frowned because it turned out to be Mayor Gregorio. What the actual fuck? Does the Mayor also have anything to do with this? I shook my head. "Looks like you're strong enough, son, you've been able to track us down here. Where is the five billion I sent you? Did you give it to my staff?” asked Mr. Ronald
Travis I'm excited to go to my wife Dahlia's house, because today is our bonding time. Today is Saturday and today is our bonding time as a family. Dahlia also told me that she has something important to tell me. I don't know but I am so excited, maybe she will say yes to me. Just dream once and I'll make it happen. In fact, I really want us to be in the same house but I don't want to lead my wife's decision. As long as possible, she will be the one I'll follow, because she might resent my asking her to live under the same roof. Dahlia said I was too excited, she didn't even answer me yet. As much as possible, I am careful with what I say and what i want. I don't want to turn her off and commit a sin again or be unpleasant in her eyes. I am so conscious because of my wife. I love her so much and I don't want to lose her from my life. I smiled widely as I drove to their mansion. I also need to make up for the children because I was busy looking for the Congressman and planning t
"Love, Mommy is looking for you, she said she wants to see you, is it okay for me to pick up the children from the mansion and bring them home? Just go past them since Mommy is looking for you, she says she misses you," Travis said on the other line. I was currently at work when he called me. A few days passed when we arrived in the Philippines. "Okay, have you heard from Emery yet?" I asked. I heard his sigh when I asked him that. "Not yet, love. I can't contact her either. I am worried for her and for her daughter." Emery hasn't come home to her condo for a few days so as a friend we are also worried about her. We are also taking care of the evidence we gathered against Emery's father but the problem is there's no witness. Oh I forgot, there's one and it's Emery. Emery is the only one who can imprison his father. "Don't worry, I'll get help from my staff as well as Mom and Isabella's staff. We will find Emery and Emmeren.” "Thank you, Dahlia. The child has become too close t
I took a deep breath and smiled. Mom, Isabella and I were already fine. I don't want to harbor anger towards them, I don't want to be stressed. I love them so much and they were my only family so I can't stand the fact that we had an argument... Yes, I was hurt but the pain made me more mature. I learned to forgive and understand the people around me. I've been looking for Travis since this morning, he didn't show up. Where was that man, I also need to talk to him so that when we get home we will both be okay. I'm ready to face him and I'm ready to fight those person who destroyed us both. I looked around the palace but still nothing, I frowned when I saw Mom talking to Travis. I was suddenly felt nervous, I didn't expect them to talk. I hope Travis isn't nervous too, I chuckled. The nervousness was evident on Travis's face. It's really obvious on his fac, seems it's like he's going to poop. I immediately walked closer to them and smiled when they saw me. "It looks like you
"Mommy, are we going to the Philippines? Daddy said, we're going home," Mathilda asked sadly. "Yes baby, we're going home, Mommy has a lot of work to attend in the Philippines. We will live there with Daddy," I explained. I don't know where Travis is, he suddenly disappeared from the twins' room. This is where he slept and I was in my old room. My night was peaceful because Tristan and I were okay. I don't know why I can forgive him so easily. Maybe I don't feel that bad about him. "Matthew, have you seen your Daddy?" I asked my son who was currently playing on his tablet. He immediately stopped playing and looked at me. "I didn't see him, Mommy." I just nodded and exited the room, when someone peeked at our door. It was one of Queen Isabella's servants, if I was not mistaken. “Good morning, Princess Sofia. The Queens are here," she politely said so I nodded. I straightened myself up and waited for Mom and my sister. "Your Abuela is here, greet them okay?" I reminded t
Here we are inside the dining table with Travis, Tristan, Isabella, Mom and Tristan's parents. I just laughed at my excessive plasticity. I don't know how I was able to smile and mingle with them when I was hurting. Isabella's face was also awkward, she couldn't even look at me. "Son, why didn't you tell us you were coming home?" Mom asked me so I turned around. "I want to surprise you all, but I was the one who was surprised," I promised him with a laugh. I know that Tristan's parents understand Tagalog because as far as I know, his mother lived in the Philippines for several years. They didn't even laugh at what I said so I coughed. “The wedding is on Sunday, are you going to attend, Princess Sofia? And who's that boy beside you? Is that your boyfriend?” the queen asked me so I turned to Travis. The man who looked at me was restless. I knew he was nervous so I held his hand under the table. I smiled at him, I wanted to calm him down. "He's my husband," I answered the queen with
When we arrived in Spain, we immediately hailed a taxi, I immediately put on a cap and sunglasses because someone might recognize me. When we entered, Mathilda immediately came running and I just shook because of her veil. I don't even know who inherited it, Travis and I are not talkative. "Mommy, can we tell Abuela and Tita Isabella that we are already here in Spain?" Mathilda asked me and I shook my head. "No, honey. We will surprise your Abuela, you want that, right? You like surprises.". It nodded at me and clapped. "I can't wait to finally introduce my Daddy to them, right 'Tus?" Mathilda asked her sister. He just nodded to him as a sign of agreement.Matthew always nodded to his brother. My son is also funny sometimes. Always spoiling her sister, even if she doesn't want to, she will do it anyway, not only to disappoint and make my daughter sad. That's how Travis used to be to me, he just changed when Emery came back into our lives. "You don't seem okay,"I took a deep brea
Until now, what Travis said to me is still in my mind. Are we still married? Is he just fooling me or what? This man is also annoying sometimes, because I ask him questions and he never gets an answer. He said we should talk about it when we get home to the Philippines. I'm itching to know why we're still married. Did I think I was free from him? Not yet. You'll just get really pissed off. If only we weren't inside the plane, I would have scolded him earlier. "You better go to sleep first, let your mind rest." I turned to him and tormented him.“I can't sleep, it's your fault! How are we still married? Are you fooling me again?” I asked him. He took a deep breath and shook his head. "You better take care of your problem there in Spain first. Even if you don't say it, I know you have a big problem. John also told me the reason," he softly promised me. It was enough for me to hear his voice. Our twins are currently sleeping, they can't be woken up because it's so disgusting when they
