"I don't have it, I forgot it somewhere," she said in a low tone again and saw Emiliano's anger flare up, now that she thought about it she regretted going to that boutique to change her clothes and since she wanted to wear something different so Emiliano would have a hard time finding her, she ended up forgetting her phone, she didn't even have her purse with her because it was in Emiliano's car
"Damn it you are useless...it's getting late, we need to find somewhere to sit, forget that I need to sleep"he complained as they walked away from the restaurant, the sky darkened as thunder roared. For a while, Sia thought it was a car but it wasn't because lighting struck indicating it was going to rain any time soon as if they didn't have enough to deal with
"How on earth did you get here without a phone and money huh, we need to book a five-star hotel"
"We don't have any money therefore we can't afford an expensive hotel...what's wrong with you," she said in anger a
Sia shifted in her sleep from side to side as she tried to find a comfortable position, but her body felt heavy as she fought with drowsiness to lift her eyelashes and when she did, she looked around the room and panicked as she at up to inspect herself just as the door flew open and Carmen walked in holding a glass of warm milk with a huge smile on her face"Good morning Sia, did you sleep well?" Carmen said as she went on to put the glass beside her bed and Sia with a confused expression tried to put pieces together"I'm...it was good" she mumbled as her hand went in her hair as she watched Carmen draw the curtains apart. She was now back in the Alvaro mansion but how come because she recalled falling asleep in that small room if the hotel Emiliano hated"I was so worried about you Sia, granny and I nearly went crazy searching for you and Emiliano, especially Diego, "Carmen said and sat on the bed, still Sia was confused not sure how she got here"Well... I...i
"Baby are you sure it's okay for you to go in alone?"Mario asked with narrowed eyes as he looked at Sia who was about to step out of the car heading inside the Fine Dine restaurant"Yep, I'll be fine Mario as it is I can't let you three come with me...you and Rhea need to look after Diego, "Sia said as she made sure her hair was perfect, it was in the afternoon and since she had nothing to do other than listen to Carmen makeup all the plans about the wedding, sia wasn't a fool but she knew she had gotten too deep in the Alvaro family than she planned. For one thing, carmen and the old lady weren't so bad after all and treated her with love and affection even more than her parents despite the hatred she got from Vince and Emiliano who never wanted her in their lives everything was fine but she was feeling bad to have lied to them about who she was. Putting that aside she was no one her way to have lunch with her other soon to be husband Logan Martinez who her very own da
Sia and Logan arrived at the Navarro mansion and as soon as the car came to a stop by the entrance, Logan got out and proceeded to open the car door for Sia like a perfect gentleman he extended his hand to her and Sia took it and got out as well. After having lunch with her, Logan suggested they spend the rest of the day doing things she wanted hence Sia ended up having a little bit of fun with him"Shall we?"Logan held her hand as they walked inside, from time to time Sia peeked at him, and like always she didn't find anything wrong with him, he was what most girls would dream of, caring and always paying attention to the tiniest detail about the person he was with. That was what made Logan the best man she has ever come across and that was why she always tried to distance herself from him, he was innocent and expected more from the woman he wanted and her being Sia didn't have enough to give which was why she always pushed him away"And here they are"Cristal exclaime
It was as if someone had finally switched her life with another because Sia was tossing and turning in bed not sure if to wake up and face reality or hide away until her troubles disappeared. With lazy eyes, she prompts on her elbows as she faces palmed herself repeatedly scolding herself for what she did the previous night with Logan. She vowed never to give him a chance no matter how many times he came begging to her but with just his sweet words she melted like butter. It wasn't old news that she and he had a thing for each other for a very long time even though they kept it between them, she never wanted Logan ever in her life because like every other man he put his company and greed for money first which was not what she wanted in a life partner, therefore, she always acted hostile towards him and made sure he never came close to her. Now it was different even if she melted under his touch and kissed him as her life depended on it. She still felt guilty about the fact tha
Nothing felt worse than having to sit in the same car as Emiliano, Sia knew nothing went right whenever the man was around her, and since she was forced to attend the party with Emiliano she had no choice but to go-aheadAfter getting ready of course it wasn't easy seeing how many times her parents were calling her to attend the party with them not knowing that she was going to the same party, and she was the main event of the same party hosted by the Alvaro's*beep beep*Her phone made a sound and with narrowed eyes, she brought it to her face, and yes Logan had sent her a message like he had been doing for the last one hour reminding her of how delighted he was to attend a party with her("Hey baby, I'm already at the party so are your parents, come fast")she reads the message and put down her phone and secretly glanced at Emiliano who was sitting with ease smiling as he looked at his phone without sparing her a glance which she greatly appreciated"I know
Just as sia was about to take off the mask Mario appeared out of nowhere and grabbed Sia before she could get exposed and said to the ladies"Hello beautiful ladies, may I have a dance with the lovely lady," Mario said with a charming smile that left Carmen who knew him very well helpless and Crystal smiling while Sia exhaled in relief"Sure Mario go on but make sure you stay close okay," Carmen said and Sia nodded and followed Mario who ushered her away from there and led her to a hidden corner Sia nearly died from a heart attack"That was close, thanks Mario," she said as she tied her mask properly Mario scanned her for a while and frowned"Sia, couldn't you have thought of any excuse to get out of there" if he didn't show up on time who knew what would have happened, already he spotted her dad talking to Emiliano and of course Vince. If anyone knew who she was, then it was game over, her dad would make her life miserable"I know, but I can't take th
Sia was seated like a statue beside Carmen who kept on apologizing to her for what Emiliano did earlier at the party and of course, she had no problems with what he did he did her a favor by disappearing just when Carmen was about to announce the wedding. Carmen kept blaming herself for not having control over her son and since granny didn't come to the party because the old lady had a serious issue with noisy places and huge parties were what she didn't like and since Emiliano only feared his granny and not his mom he went ahead and left the party without a trace leaving Carmen to give all sorts of excuses to cover up for what happened. So guessed Emiliano found some beautiful woman to tangle with for the night because she knew how much women mattered to him, and he didn't give a damn about ruining his family party"Sia dear, I'm truly sorry for this... I promise to deal with Email for what he did"Carmen said in an apology tone and reached for Asia's right hand and squeezed it
"Well I was on my way to Emil's room to dress his injury but since I met you, please see to it that his wound is clean... I would have done it, but Vince needs me in the study"Carmen said innocently which sounded like manipulation to Sia who couldn't refuse even if she wanted and after saying yes, she made her way to Emiliano's room with a heavy heart and most importantly why he was suddenly hurt"So help me I'll kill him" she muttered and pushed the door open and unlike what she expected, she found the man sleeping on his belly with his right hand suspended to the sides and once Sia got close, she muffled her mouth with her hand. He was badly hurt as if someone had been using glass pieces to cut his skin off"Trouble" she mumbled with a friend and crawled onto his bed, so she could clean his wound properly, blood was all dried up which meant he had been hurt for a long time but why. She quickly made sure to he was alright applied ointment at some point had the urge to use
"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
