"I have to leave, Abigail Marie" Nuzzling her moist lips, he said it without reticence. "Where?" Sleep eluded her system after hearing him. Her eyes darted at the clock at the bedside table. "It's midnight" She was incredulous upon seeing the time. She was about to rant at him when she noticed h
"Well, there could be delays. He could be away for four days, or even five days, or six, or seven" She's whispering to herself but pauses upon realizing she reaches seven on her count. "Isn't it too long? What could be the delay that could take six or seven days?" She pouted in a sulk but she had
Not only did her elegant outfit snatch everyone's attention but the woman beside her. Another new face in Santocildes and it stirred curiosity. Oblivious to the attention, Abigail and Kara walked straight to the lobby where they bumped into a group she least expected to see early in the morning.
"What do you want, President Del Castillo?" Abby asks the instant Justin enters the door of the Chairman's office. She insisted on occupying the room as her temporary office despite the proposal of having her own. To be with Lam is her main reason more than the comfort and privacy they all suggest
"I have philanthropic blood in me too, Dr. Sandoval. I could help with whatever you need" he continued. "At what price, Mr. Carlos?" After her long silence, she spoke. "Nothing, doctor. As I have said it's a philanthropic deed" he meets her gauging eyes with his earnest one. "What do you want, M
"I will only eat with my husband or a company with him" she graciously declines. "He won't know" He insisted as he narrowed his eyes. "But I fully know, Mr. Carlos. I set the rules for myself. My husband doesn't need to remind me of my commitment, I'm honoring it in whatever circumstances. Most
"Of course. Leave it to me" He was back to his bright mood when he winked at him again. "Do you have a problem with your eyes?" She was aghast by his friskiness. Her remark abruptly erased the smile he was wearing. "You are such a humorless creation, Stepanov. Loosen up a little for goodness sa
It was a grueling wait for Abigail. The four days with a delay that she expected becomes more than a week. As her yearning for Lam grew stronger there were nights that she would cry herself to sleep. Like tonight, her eyes were still wet when she drifted to sleep. Like the rest of the nights, she
"Well, it won't be that lonely starting today. I have an older sister to bombard with whenever Papa and Mama are being demanding" Davin, who is now on his feet and with normal speech, playfully exclaimed while staring at Abby. "I won't mind at all. I'm so used to chaotic souls. We have a lot back h
"Moppet?" Lucy's voice interrupted her deep thoughts as she mulled at her decision. "You did great, my love. I believe it's about time" he softly continued. Since they left Austin City, Abby has been very quiet. She would blankly stare at nowhere while nursing Luke. But he dare not interrupt. Ev
"Good morning" Lucy greeted with a huge smile upon seeing his brother and nephews in the lobby. He just arrived early in the morning with his staff and Xander has the same entourage as his. "Nnning...." One of the small figures in Xander's arms responded with a sloppy waving. "Hello there litt
"Lam..." She lewdly whimpered as she got restless under his luscious ministration. "I know, my love" He smirked and in one swift move, he bent her on the bed. Her long dress was lifted to her waist, leaving her lower part vulnerable to his delightful assault. "Argh..." She loudly whimpered after
"Lam...?" With furrowed brows, Abby turned to him after realizing where they were. It was evident it had been renovated. It has cleaner walls and floors. The bed looked new although the design of the headboard was the same as she can remember. The entire room looks exactly how it used to, even th
Ignoring the older woman's tirade, she shakes her head. It was a whim to have approached them, but she felt they needed to hear her mind. "No matter what victory you achieved today, you can't deny the fact that I'm capable of stealing from you. The famous heiress was once beaten by just a commoner
Hector furrowed his brows in complete perplexity while alternately staring at the two women. "Lam, her husband, made her bury me in fear of breaking her heart. He doesn't want to give her false hope in case I won't be able to survive the procedure I underwent" she carefully explained with her gent
For mementos, guests and families were called to take pictures with the newlyweds. The last group who joined the couple caught Madame Mariebel's interest. Her eyes narrowed as she watched the interaction of the guests with her granddaughter. As her intent gaze was directed at one figure, Abby su
"That's the only price I'm collecting from you. Withstand the complicated world I have. Together, let's thrive against the ticking of the clock and the days spent by" he is trying to compel her. But her silence made him anxious. "I vow to spend my entire life cherishing you and our children. I comm
