"Tell me something, you had a perfect opportunity to get rid of her but you...you married her, "Angelo asked suspiciously as he pulled out a chair just opposite Emiliano who was sitting behind his desk typing away on his laptop without paying his friend any attention and Angelo bit his lower lip and smirked"You thought he was the father didn't you?" Angelo attempted again and this time he was successful because automatically Emiliano looked up at him and his expression turned serious and Angelo knew he had hit the nail on the head"It seems recently you don't appear to be doing your job as I employed you to do because you are supposed to work not to pry in my affairs," he remarked in an angry tone but Angelo wasn't bothered at his words because he was his friend, and hence he needed to know every tiny detail about him including his private bedroom affair"Drop the formalities and tell me what's cooking, back at that masquerade party you saw those two kissings, didn't you?" Angelo sai
With everything that was happening in his life, Emiliano decided to turn a blind eye to it all, but he wasn't going to have an easy life with Angelo around planting some things in his head. A few months ago he was someone who never got confused about anything, after what happened in the past he never tried to get close to any woman with his mind involved, and now he was having a hard time fighting the monsters inside him that was why after a hard busy day he decided to have a few drinks with one of his acquaintances however that turned sour when he talked about Justin's latest prey and how the man was close to conquering that same woman who was none other than his wife, feeling frustrated he left from there and came home, but it was a bad idea because immediately he opened his bedroom door forgetting he wasn't the only one living in it and now in front of him stood his wife all naked not like this was the first time he had seen her that way but every time he did she seemed new and now
Every morning was different for Sia, she thought marrying Emiliano meant endless torture since the two didn't get along very well, but she has to say so far everything was okay because both had their things to focus on. Emiliano had his company matters to deal with and Sia had her own little company to start but before that, she needed a building for her work that was why she asked Mario to look for one, and among all that he showed her, so decided to go for cross-stones since it was at a suitable location not just that it was a famous building and most people knew of it, and hence she wanted the same one unfortunately when Mario told her bout the owner and how he felt about selling his building, she knew she had to think smart and make sure she used the rights words to succeed and that was why she switched to using her family's status to get Justin's attention and as predicted she was right. The man was a shrewd man just like Emiliano had told her and couldn't resist an offer from a
"Sia Navarro right? It's finally nice to meet the pretty lady" Justin said as he extended his hand towards Sia a sly smile appeared on his face and of course, Sia played along,"It's great to meet the man behind all the astonishing buildings around... I must say you do an outstanding job" she said while looking around and didn't bother to take his hand and held her purse even more thigh, feeling neglected and improper Justin chuckled awkwardly and remarked"Don't flatter me so much, come with me" he said and led her back to the private lounge and gestured for everyone to leave, and they scattered around before stealing a glance at Sia who straightened her back and proceeded to sit, Justin smiled secretly, and a waiter came to them and brought drinks"So...you're interested in cross-stones?" Justin asked as he took the glasses and gave one to Sia who scanned it before taking it and holding it. Justin made sure to get her something smooth, not alcohol that way she wouldn't suspect a thi
Justin was smiling in victory as he watched sia drink every glass she was given, and he made sure all of them were drugged, his men informed him that Emiliano had left the building and nothing made him happier than having full control over everything, and now he was watching as a tipsy Sia struggled to keep her eyes open as she chatted with some female guests he had invited and by now the room was all ready for his night with Navarro's second and most beautiful daughter"Emiliano, I must say you are so lucky but as you know I'm a determined man who's willing to do anything to have his way""Sir, I think the drug is taking effect now," Greg said and pointed at Sia trying to keep her balance steady, but it was hard for her, and they watched as she walked away and Greg gestured for a few men to follow Sia.***Sia made her way to the restroom to splash some water on her face and as soon as she got to the lady's room she entered and went straight to the sink and turned on the tap and the
Sia was now used to working hard because after what happened with Justin she finally had what she wanted, and hence she started her work and hired more employees to remodel the entire place including changing the walls and repainting the entire building for it to look attractive and Mario was in charge of everything whilst she worked from home for a couple of days since her services weren't needed. And of course, her relationship with Emiliano was getting a little better, although they tended to fight over little things, now they were starting to know a little more about him and what he liked, and currently, she and Tara had come to visit her for the first time since she got married, and now they were in Diego's room playing with him"So when do you think he'll start crawling?"Tara asked as she raised him in the air, and he giggled, Sia who was busy arranging the stuffed animals which were so many that there was no room for all of them but what could she do when Emiliano decided to bu
Sia had never been so happy in her life as she was talking to Tara and just like they were they used to chat nonstop, she was enjoying her elder sister's company, and before they knew they had finished preparing dinner and Sia had left Tara in the guest room where she would be staying for the night and had gone to feed Diego, made sure he bathed and wanted to play with him a little before Emiliano got back since they were waiting for him"Madam, I think he likes sir very much because each time sir is here he giggles a lot, "Lulu remarked proudly as she folded Diego's clothes and was putting them away in his closet, and Sia who was busy trying to make Diego eat rolled her eyes, she knew Emiliano only did what he did so that he could win Diego over, but she took knee how to make him smile"I remember that time t the mansion, granny asked sir to feed Diego, and he did...you should have seen him madam he nearly cried trying to make him open his mouth...but with time he got a hang of it"lu
Sia didn't even know where to start because an hour had passed and no sign of Emiliano. She had tried to call him, unfortunately, he left his phone in the bedroom, and hence she was helpless. She was now standing by the door waiting for him to get back even if her feet were numb from coldness, she didn't mind at all she was worried about Emiliano not sure why, but she was feeling bad for fighting with him over a trivial matter. Lost in thoughts her phone in her hands vibrated and with speed and looked at the screen hoping it was Emiliano who Angelo however it was Carmen calling. Not sure why her mother-in-law was calling at night, maybe Emiliano was there, quickly she answered"Yes mom," Sia said"Hello dear, sorry for calling you at this time…" Carmen said on the other side and Sia smiled faintly,"It's okay mom, I hope everything is okay?" Sia said hoping Carmen would tell her Emiliano was there"No no everything is okay, I was trying to call him, but he's not answering...could you
"That...jerk"she muttered with clenched fist and prepared to head out and get her phone so she could call him however her journey was short because just then a happy emiliano opened the bedroom door to Diego's room and walked in with a smile on his face"Hey champ...hey wifey"the man said with a smile and pulled Sia in his arms but the woman frowned and shrugged him off"How could you...what have you been telling our son huh"she asked with anger in her voice and emiliano who knew what was happening chuckled nervously and leaned to kiss her but she slapped him away"Bedtime stories"he simply said and sia shrugged him away"Really?Diego...what does your precious daddy wants?"sia lowered down and asked her son cutely and Diego looked at emiliano then back at his mom and grinned like a big boy"Daddy said he...wants another me...but a in princess form""Emil!"she growled through gritted teeth and the man looked back awkwardly and sia moved close to him so she could hit him in anger for sa
*Two years later*Years passed by like the wind and life was going great, no one knew that Angelo and Tara would finally tie the knot and settle down. Not just that but Tara was expecting her first baby and like a joke Angelo was reported to be the worst husband not because he didn't take care of his wife but forbade his wife from doing any heavy work and of course Tara didn't argue for she was lucky to be cared for"Is he kicking...I can't hear anything…" Angelo said as he connected his ear to Tara's protruding tummy as she laid back on the couch, supported by pillows. She didn't know being pregnant could consume so much of her strength which made walking impossible if not for Angelo who helped her out to do her daily routine"The baby must be sleeping Angelo...stop disturbing"Tara chuckled and slapped Angelo away who frowned and moved away from his wife"You look gorgeous"he complimented and planted a kiss on her belly and Tara ran her hand in his hair as a smile crept on her face"
*Six months later*"What!how did that happen?"sia exclaimed as she held her laptop high so she could get a better view of her older sister but Tara was doing everything she could to only show her face due to the certain embarrassing situation she was in and sia frowned at her"I don't see why you are surprised little sis"Tara chuckled awkwardly, it was like every time she and sia would video call and talk however it pleased them and every time her little sister would ask her if she had any plans to settle down but that wasn't the case"How is that possible when he's bragging about it to Emiliano huh"it was too good to be true but it had been six months and everything in everyone's lives seemed okay. No more enemies to fight. After that incident with Dimple who was sentenced for five years and like promised Crawford didn't dare get her out, Angel recovered but wasn't charged with any crimes since he was manipulated to do what he did hence had gone back to rehabilitation center to conti
"That stupid fool failed and now…'' Dimple said in frustration as she packed her clothes in a bag, she already made plans to get out of the country as soon as possible because she already knew that Angel didn't succeed in killing Sia like she manipulated him to do. It was simple to enter the hospital, get Angel free and inject him with his favorite drug which drove him insane. A little tale about the hatred he had for sia and Emiliano and the job was done, but she had no idea that Angel could fail to shoot Sia and end her once and for all"M...madam dinner is ready"Dimple heard one of the servants say and as if adding fuel to a fire "Get out your disgusting maid!you pathetic creature out!"she shouted so much and threw someone to the lady who flinched in fear and ran out of the room. Here she was busy running away from the law because if Angel opened his mouth and said something against her then she was going straight to jail, "That fool is incompetent... I should have done the job m
Rhea entered the bedroom sia was in and sighed, she was just sitting there without blinking. It was like her friend was lost in some unknown world. Rhea walked to her and sat on the bed "You look like hell bestie"Rhea said with a chuckle as she tried to make sia react to her sarcasm, but her friend was just staring at her, it broke Rhea's heart to see sia in such a state it was horrifying"It wasn't your fault...he was bad and all you did was protect yourself from him"Rhea said softly and reached for sia's hand and held it in hers. "I'm fine Rhea"sia muttered and with a surprise look Rhea lifted her head only to find sia wiping her tears"Sia...are you alright...tell me...are you okay"she asked desperately and sia nodded a little. Yes, she was shocked but mostly scared. She feared Emiliano and his family would point fingers at her. In the past, she had fault with Emiliano over Angel which made it look like she didn't want him and after what happened she was scared Emiliano would say
Logan sighed as he pushed the bedroom door open to find Rhea sitting by the window. After they came back, he gave her time to freshen up, and now she was sitting comfortably in warm clothes, and hence he walked to her and sat beside her"Here"he handed her a glass of mango juice just like always. Rhea took it with a smile not sure what to do or say, but they needed to talk"There was no need to hide that from me Logan"she said more like a whisper and kept her eyes away from him, of course Logan was aware of what he did, but he wanted to tell her which wasn't a big deal, but Patricia didn't want anyone to know about her condition. It was private, and she begged him not to tell anyone, and hence he couldn't go against someone's wishes even if he wanted to"I know sweetie, but I had no right to disclose such info without being told to do so"Logan said even when he knew he sounded ridiculous and yes Rhea felt a sharp pain in her chest as she slowly took a sip of her cold drink"Y...you do
"P...please Angel drop the gun...shooting me won't...won't give you anything"Sia said while shaking her head hoping Angel would stop his advance and leave in peace. However, the expression on his face was murderous, he had his gun pointed at her"I've always hated you...do you know why...because you ruined my plans...if you didn't follow me that night"he said with bitterness as he took small predatory steps towards Sia who was backing away slowly, it was scary seeing how crazy angel looked. He wasn't in his right senses, and hence he could do anything without thinking twice "if you didn't poke your silly nose in my affairs then...you wouldn't be here with me pointing a gun at you...you little snake is responsible for the condition I'm in...you are the one who let him lock me in that disgusting rotten place!"angel remarked word by word full of hate, his eyes shot nothing but venom as he kicked the nearest chair to him and sia flinched as her body connected to the dressing mirror and an
"P...please sir...you s...should go back... I... I don't want...you and her...to...she will misunderstand you again,"Patricia said with great difficulty in breathing as Logan shook his head for her to stop talking. She was lifeless and could barely keep her eyes open. Her skin looked as if it would fall off anytime soon and large dark circles were around her eyes"Please patty...we are friends…just calm down y...you will be fine"Logan whispered as he tried to make her stop struggling, but the lady was looking uncomfortable especially with several tubes connected to her, she was sweating than normal, and he feared something bad would happen to her. The security guard at her villa had called him that patricia suddenly collapsed and fell down the stairs"S...sir...I'm…delighted for...everything you have...done for me... I...didn't mean...to cause so...much trouble,"she said and closed her eyes for a while, tears lingered in her eyes as she bit back a sob. It had a only been a month since
Dimple was sitting in the lounge laughing like a crazy person while four servants stood on the side line with their head bowed in fear as they watched their boss drink champagne. If anyone saw her, they would think she had gone insane, but the lady was just having a good time. Crawford, who had gotten tired of, hearing his daughter's crazy laugh all the way to his room upstairs came down and frowned when he saw empty bottles scattered everywhere"What are you waiting for...clear this trash away!"he yelled at the servants and the four flinched as they tried to do something, but the glare dimple gave them had them running away "What's all this huh...now I have a drunkard of a daughter in my home?" Crawford said in irritation as he snatched a bottle of liquor from her and dimple frowned,"I'm celebrating my victory dad...see this...the Alvaro's are throwing a huge party today, and I'm...and I'm...celebrating though...they didn't invite me hahaha"she remarked followed by loud laughter su
