“Charles, Charlie! Come on wake up! You have school today!” I shook them.When Charlotte wasn’t born yet, we used to call her Lottie in my womb because of Amelia. She loves calling her Lottie. However, when she died, we got used to Andrew calling Charlotte Charlie that we all started calling her Charlie too.Charles groaned and Charlie stretched her arms like a cat before standing up. I tied their window curtains to let the sun come in. Charles covered his face with a pillow because of the light that touched his face.“Charles! Come on wake up!” Charlie shook Charles harder and he just ignored her.“Go and take a bath. Leave that sleepyhead alone,” I ordered Charlie and she took her towel and went inside the bathroom.I proceeded to the kitchen to cook some breakfast. I started to cook pancakes which were their favorites and prepared their warm cup of chocolateAfter Charlie went out ofRelated chapters

The elevator dinged and Lisa removed her arms around me to look who it was. Calvin entered holding three cups of latte and a box of donuts.“What happened?” He asked when he saw what I looked like.“Nothing,” I sniffed and wiped away my tears.Alice averted her gaze from Calvin and entered my office so I followed her. Calvin laid the foods he brought on the table and offered it to us. I declined his offer politely because I just ate my breakfast. Lisa just shook her head.“The event would be Monday next week. You had to prepare your outfit and you'll need a partner, ” Lisa told me, ignoring Calvin.“Are you talking about the annual event?” Calvin asked.“No, we don't,” Lisa replied sarcastically.I was stunned by her reply. Maybe her work is taking a toll on her that is why she is becoming hot-headed.“I can be your partner. I'm also invited to the event,” he replied ignor

Warren’s POVI've been living for five years without Bella. In those five years, I drowned myself to work and tried to shut everyone out of my life. I was obsessed with getting revenge and ruining Calvin's life. I thought I was going to be successful but because of that stupid mall, he was able to survive and grow again by leeching to that business. He was like a weed that if you cut them, they would only grow again with much healthier leaves.My mom was happy with the divorce. She was so elated at the news while my dad was okay about it. My mom never liked Bella because of her poor background. She had always wanted to me to marry someone of our league. A woman that is a daughter of successful businessmen.Ivy helped me throughout my life. She was always with me cheering me up and reminding me that I made the right decision.Mom saw how close I am to her and she supported me about it."Son it's been five years. Bella had already moved on. There is no c

Stella’s POV“Stella, are you okay?” Lisa asked me with worry written on her face.She must have noticed how I turned quiet and how my smile was wiped off my face.“Of course, I’m fine.” I forced a smile and folded the paper and placed it on the table.I sat on my office chair like the invitation didn’t bother me.“Don’t tell me that you haven’t moved on with him yet?” Lisa asked me sharply and I scoffed at her question.“I moved on, Lisa. It’s been five years, what kind of question is that?” I asked her in disbelief and took a look at the pile of papers placed on my desk.“Well, you seemed like you still have feelings for that bastard,” Lisa squinted her eyes at me making me stop what I’m doing and stared back at her eyes with the equal intense gaze.“I had moved on. I was just shock that’s all,” I answered and continued wha

We just finished eating dinner. Lisa helped the maids in washing the dishes as I took care of the kids."Mom! I can't find my toothbrush!" Charles shouted.I went to the bathroom and I saw him rummaging the sink cabinet. Charlie snickered behind me and I looked at her. She averted her gaze and ran away from me.I knew it, she’s playing her brother again.I don’t know why she loves pulling pranks at her brother when it wasn’t even funny. I don’t know where she inherited her mischief,"Charlie! Get back here!" I commanded but she didn't listen."I said come. Here. Now!" I fumed and she walked slowly towards me.These two kids would only listen to me once I turned angry."Where's your brother's toothbrush?" I asked her calmly."I don't know?" she said, her tone rising in the end."Give it!" I commanded.She sighed and took his brother's toothbrush that was under her bed, "Sorry, " she mumbled."Don't say sorry to me. Tell it to your brother, ""Sorry,

I thought he wouldn't come because it's already late. “Okay, I’m coming,” I told our maid and left to the living room to meet Calvin.Calvin was alone in the living room sitting on a couch, looking anxious."Where is Lisa?" He asked turning his head to me when he heard me coming down the stairs."I don't know, I just finished taking care of the kids.""I was suppose to come here earlier. A lot of important things came up and I had to take care of it,” He told me even though I wasn’t asking."Do you want anything to eat?" I asked him, seeing that the maids haven’t served him anything yet."No need, I just ate. Are you okay?" He asked worriedly, even though he looked more anxious than I do.I'm very easy to read, Lisa would often tell me that I’m like an open book. My face would always wear a mask of emotion depending on what I was thinking.I sighed, "There'll be a family program at their school on Wedn

Charles POVA few months back….I was at the garden, watching my sister play as I read a classic book that I am trying to finish so I could read the next book I have in my bookshelf. I’ve been trying so hard to focus on my book, but Charlie kept on talking to her dolls as they play tea party.I can’t help it, but to close the book that I was reading since I couldn’t even understand what I was reading because my mind kept on drifting to what’s happening to my mom.My mother hasn’t been feeling well lately and I think it wasn’t cause by any physical sickness that she might be feeling. I hadn’t seen her come out of her bedroom since yesterday and I think she was just avoiding to let us see and worry about her“I think we should go and check up on mom,” Charlie said the same thing I had been thinking.It turns out that she was also thinking about her while she was playing with her dolls.&ldq

I swear I’ve seen this familiar face before. I just don’t know when or where I did. How can I forget this man when he looks exactly like me?I ran to the living room, where we last left our mom’s laptop after I and Charlie decided to play outside, instead. Mom would let us borrow her laptop from time to time, but we couldn’t use it to play games because she doesn’t like it when we use technology for playing instead of going outside playing with the other kids using our toys.Charlie didn't follow me; I know she's used to me who suddenly disappears when I think of something. She’s the one who told me that I’m that kind of a person. I think that she also thinks that I would tell her what I would find.I opened the laptop and searched the name “Warren Laurent” and a lot of things came out about him. I know that my father's last name is Laurent because mom gave us his last name and I don’t know why would she do t

Bella's POVIt's weekend, and every weekends I make sure that I spend all my time to my twins. I would block out all my work, silent my phone, refrain myself from taking a look on my emails and let the paperworks pile up until monday.I only have two days to spend time with them since they go to school during weekdays. I have to make the most of our time in two days.Every saturday, we would go outside and visit parks or near tourist spots to bond with each other and have fun. In that way, I could ask the twins questions and know them deeply.I make sure to make the most out of them while they are little. Once they grow up and become teenagers, they would surely be embarassed to give me a kiss on my cheek in public and share me their deepest secrets."Where would you like to go today?" I asked the two while they are eating their favorite breakfast that I cooked which were pancakes."Can't we stay at home? I have assignments and I'm planning to finish th

In Loving You Final Chapter
It was one of our lucky guesses. Somehow, we guessed that this might be written in the contract. We all know what Ivy wants. It’s marrying Warren and Gemma obviously wants money. She wants nothing more than money. I know that since we were little.So, to take some precautionary measures, Warren transferred all that he owns to my name.That’s also how I found out about Warren losing everything he mostly has at the day when we met again at the hospital after our trip to France. I found out that prior to going to the hospital to see Charles; he went first to their family house to sign papers to transfer his properties and to sign away his right as the only son of his parents.There was not much that he has to transfer to my name. So now he actually owned nothing.Blood drained from Ivy’s face as she realized it’s over. We defeated her and there’s nothing for her to do because Gemma is now gone to help her and she will be in prison, so s
In Loving You Chapter 107
"Defendant Ivy Sutton is filed with charges of documentary falsification, felon in possession of firearm, kidnapping, grand theft, attempted murder and aiding and abetting wanted criminals.""Attempted murder? How?" the defense asked after hearing the charges against his defendant."It was the incident five years ago, I believe. They attempted to force the victim into abortion, but ended up nearly killing her and doing nothing to save her."I don't know if this man really has no idea about this, but I'm sure he has to have known everything before he entered this court. I'm sure Ivy had told him everything. How else is he going to defend her if he knows nothing at all?Ivy might have hired the best and most heartless criminal defense attorney at all that only cared about her money, but Warren also hired the best that there is to handle the case that we are pressing against her. What she did is a serious crime and there's no way she can leave unscathed. All I want

Warren just came out of surgery and I don't know how I did it, but even though in my distraught state, I was able to comfort the twins about the fact that their father is in surgery."It's a simple surgery, that's what the doctor said so no need to worry much," I told them and both of them were able to be with each other with smile on their faces as I wait for Warren's surgery to end in the waiting room."Warren, I'm sorry," I whispered to him as he sleeps on his bed. He's probably still under the effects of morphine.I know for a fact that Gemma wants to shoot me from the start, but Warren blocked his body from the bullet's path to save me.Ivy was stupid to trust Gemma, she didn't know that she was just using her so she can destroy my life for whatever reason.Watching Warren unconscious and weak without any certainties of when he will wake up made me realize how dumb I was for telling him that it wasn't easy.That it isn't easy for me to live with hi

Warren slumped on the couch and held his head between his hands when the call ended. He looked lost after the conversation, while I looked more stricken and worried on what's going to happen.Warren stood up, dialed something in his phone and waited for someone to answer his call. "Hello, I just had a call in this number, can you please track it for me?" He paused, waiting for the person at the end of the line to answer. "Thank you so much," Warren said before ending the call."What did they say?" I asked him."The call was done in a payphone," Warren answered me with a troubled expression.These guys they hired are smart, one of the reasons why the FBI are still searching for them."I can't wait anymore, Warren. My daughter is out there with Ivy, Gemma and wanted criminals. It's lunch time, Warren, but my daughter hasn't even eaten breakfast and drank water since she's kidnapped," I told Warren pleadingly."Mom, don't worry. You're stressing yourself t
In Loving You Chapter 104
Bella’s POV“The results came in and everything is fine. All his vital signs were clear and he just needed to rest. It appears that the cause of all of this was too much stress and nothing really serious.” The doctor smiled at us, giving us a great news.“Oh thank God!” A tear escaped my eye because of happiness.I held Charles’s hand tight and gave him a light kiss on his hand. Charles was hospitalized, he fainted and his nose bled because of me. He was stressed because he was worried too much about me. It reminded me of what Warren’s parents had told me that I was responsible for all these that had happened.When the doctor and the nurses had left, I started crying beside Charles. I don’t want to cry, but the tears just spilled out. “You should have said something. You should have talked to me,”I croaked. I’m supposed to scold him and teach him a lesson, but how could I if the tears flowed out of
In Loving You Chapter 103
Warren’s POV“Didn’t I tell you to leave?!” I hissed at my parents after securing the door behind me.“We are not going to leave until you let us see our grandson!” Dad roared back at me, making me feel more angry.“You have no shame in being here,” I spoke roughly, keeping my voice down, knowing that Bella can hear our conversation inside the room if we raised our voice.I can’t believe they have the guts to rush here to shout at Bella and tell her that she’s the worst mother that there is. Bella is a great mother. I can never imagine a woman raise up twins so perfectly after having a divorce. She never wants all this to happen, and I know she’s going through a lot of things right now. How could they barge here and blame Bella for everything.I never hated my parents the way I hated them now.Today, I was supposed to go to our family house to settle the company ownership with my parent&r
In Loving You Chapter 102
Gemma’s POV“You understand now, huh?!” Ivy yelled at the poor girl, her eyes wide with contempt. “I did all that because of your mother. She’s the reason why I turned into this so you have no right to call me things because you don’t know me!” Charlie flinched at her seat and I could only smile behind them, trying to suppress my laugh.I never thought that Ivy is even this stupid. How can’t she see everything? How can’t she hear the words coming out of her mouth? She brought all this to herself and yet she’s blaming her actions to Bella.She was the reason why Bella and Warren got close to each other, the reason why Bella thought she was fine with her marrying Warren. She accepted my offer that’s why we were here. How can’t she not see the reason why we are here?Was I so good of an actress that she couldn’t see that I’m only using her and lying straight to her face or is she jus
In Loving You Chapter 101
Ivy’s POVThat’s how it all started, the betrayal, the edited photographs, the kidnapping, all the hideous crimes I committed. It started with a promise that Gemma gave me. A hope that she will give me the life that I always wanted in exchange for my cooperation and money.I should have said no, I should have ran away from her at the mention of the word “mafia”. Perhaps I was being desperate. I was afraid of living a life where I lost. So, I grabbed the opportunity when she handed it.Even though I’ve agreed to help Gemma in her plans to ruin Bella’s life a day just after her marriage, our plans started rolling two years in their marriage.Gemma thought that waiting for two years will be the right time to ruin their relationship. Study says that most married couples feel burnouts in two years of marriage, so we waited patiently for that.The fact that Bella and Warren have no children and are not expecting one made it easy
In Loving You Chapter 100
"Ivy?" Warren asked questioningly. I turned around and saw him come out of his penthouse confused.I pocketed my phone behind my jeans and looked at him nervously.We have been texting regarding the wedding that is happening tomorrow. I texted him and told him to come out of his house because I'm here on his front door."I thought you were joking. How long have you been here?" He asked me with a smile. I didn't answer him. "You should come inside, it's so cold out here.""No," I declined politely. "I won't be long. I just came here to ask you a question and I want to see you answer personally."Warren inserted his hands into his pocket and nodded his head, shaking his hair. "Sure, go ahead." He looked like he was feeling cold, but I couldn't feel anything."I just want to remind you that you are marrying my bestfriend.""I know that.""I'm not here to tell you what you already know. I'm here to tell you that if you had hurt her in any way, I w
