Katleah woke up in an unfamiliar room. "Where am I?" she asked herself. She had just started to get to her feet when she found herself back on the bed. Both her hands and feet were tied, and a thick cloth covered her mouth. Tears welled up in her eyes. Will she die without even getting justice for the death of her parents? Will the same thing happen to her? "Dad, mom, help me please..." She prayed when a masked man with a gun barged in.

"Put on your clothes and get out of here." the man said as he removed the rope and gag from her mouth.

"Put it on?" As she stared at her naked body, she felt a wave of horror wash over her.

"You shameless people, what did you do to me? You are an animal!" she shouted as soon as the man removed the gag from her mouth.

"Shut up!" Simultaneously, he aimed a gun at her head and said, "If you want to live, just shut up and follow my orders!"

Even so, she remained immobile, stunned as she was. The masked man still had her transfixed. She froze in fear as he

    "Boss, here are your clothes, it's been five days since you didn't come home." James, who had been keeping an eye on Marco, said. He had recently arrived at the hospital and couldn't help but feel bad for his boss's current predicament. Marco looked at him, his eyes puffy from waiting for his wife to wake up. "Thank you, James. Just put it there, go back to the office, and bring all the papers I need to sign here to the hospital," Marco replied sluggishly. James stared at his boss in disbelief as he sat on the side of Katleah's bed, holding her hand. His clothes and hair are messy, and he often misses meals because he only pays attention to his wife.

    Mansion of the De la Vega familyMarco and his father, Philip Dela Vega, on the veranda of their mansion, are having coffee while facing each other. Marco silently observed his Father as he stared into the distance. A 50-year-old man like him appeared to have a younger face than his current age. Elegant and handsome as ever, he can still make any woman fall in love with him. But he knows he has never remarried since his mother abandoned them.His Father called him, "Marco, how old are you? How soon are you getting married?""Marriage is not in my plans, Dad. Why are you so concerned if I amn't married?" He seemed annoyed to respond to his Dad."I'm getting old, son. When will you give me a grandchild? What if I'm too old to play them? You may be putting off your wedding until I pass away.”"Look at what you're saying, Dad! We're talking about my marriage; this is not food I would spit out if I did not enjoy it. Besides, you've taught me not to put too much faith in women." It was evid

Just wait, and I'll open the door.""What happened to you, and why did it take you so long to open the door? Do you want to hide something from me?"Mrs. Rosa yelled as she pushed open the door."Mrs. Rosa, I have no reason to hide you. Why, what do you need?""Hah! Are you still asking? Have you forgotten? You still haven't paid your rent at home, and it's been two months. If you can't afford to pay, leave.""Mrs. Rosa, please have mercy on me; I promise to make up for my two-month delay in payment this coming week. If you could just wait until next week, I could get paid then.""What? Within the next week? No way! I'm immune to your pitiful charms now that I've granted you a two-month extension in the past; what were you thinking? How fortunate are you?""All right, Mrs. Rosa, this is the last one because I can't find a cheaper on

    At the mallKatleah had just exited the employee entrance when she noticed a tall, muscular man approaching her. She had never met him.She isn't that significant. Why would anyone be interested in her if she didn't have any money? She ignored him, thinking she was overthinking, but why did she still feel the man was following her? She looked at him."Are you following me, Mr.?" She asked the man right away."I'm sorry, Ma'am, but the boss would have invited you to eat dinner outside. He said he just wanted to talk to you," the man said hesitantly."Huh? B-Boss? Oh, sir, perhaps you approached me by mistake." She immediately turned her back on him."No, ma'am. Aren't you Ms. Katleah Sanchez?" the man replied, still following her.She halted in front of the man and said, "It's me. Why is your boss interested in me? ""Come along, ma'am, so you can find out," he continued to persuade her.Katleah was perplexed by this man's alleged boss, so to find out who this boss was interested in t

    "W-Wh-What?" Katleah immediately inquired. Oh, uhoo, she was taken aback by Marco's direct offer to her.He immediately provided her with water to drink. She confronted him again when she felt better."What makes you want to ruin the moment?" I nearly spit out what I was chewing. Fortunately, I immediately realized that spitting it out would be a waste, so I swallowed it all. You're attempting to annoy me, aren't you? Are you serious?" She scolded him angrily.Although Katleah's response made him laugh a little, he quickly stopped and turned his face faithfully again."I'm not joking. You should marry me.""What if I don't want to? What are your plans? You don't have any plans to kidnap me if I refuse, do you? Just because you're a billionaire and the most successful businessman in the country doesn't give you the right to order my life around. You don't have control over me." She turned down Marco's marriage proposal right away."She's not that naive if she's aware of my other life e

    Meanwhile, Katleah lay flat on the grass at Forbes Park and put on a thin blanket; she used the suitcase as her pillow. She lay down and gazed at the twinkling stars in the sky. She appears to be crying due to her grandmother and parents' absence, those who made her experience genuine affection. Her life would not have turned out this way if they were still alive. She has no desire to become wealthy. To her, it's all about making her family happy. She remembered what her grandmother had said before she died."Katleah, I know I won't be around for long; you need to know your true identity. Make sure you find your birth parents no matter what!”Her grandmother's words stunned her. "I'm perplexed, Grandma; who are my biological parents? Didn't they die in an accident?"“I'm telling the truth, Katleah; your mother rescued you from the burning orphanage.”Her face was frozen. She couldn't believe that, after eighteen years, she would discover that the family she thought was her real family

    Katleah squirmed out of Marco's grasp quickly. She averted her gaze and asked calmly."Why are you here? Didn't you leave earlier? Why did you return?""Just answer my question. How come you're just lying here as the rain pours down? Would you like to get sick?" Marco asks with concern."That doesn't matter to you. I mean, really, why are you being so annoying? What exactly are you up to? Why? Did I invite you to soak in the rain with me here? I'm not, right?" she asked Marco ponderously.Marco frowned at the girl's response to him. The fact that she became even gloomier due to his worries surprised him."Are you women truly this way? Do you become enraged when a man expresses concern for you? Why are you this way? You have such a bad temper," Marco stated as his brows met."Oh! That makes me the villain, huh? Because I didn't treat you well, despite your concern. Why? Did I ask you to worry about me? That's the reason why I didn't want to let you know that I planned to spend the nig

    AFTER 3 YEARS,"Wait, Katleah.."She came to a halt when she heard someone calling her name. Looking back, she noticed Marie rushing as she approached her. "Could I speak with you for a moment? There's a coffee shop outside this university; let's talk properly.""Why? I don't have time; I have an exam tomorrow."Do you still need that? From the moment you stepped into this university, you've been at the top of the class. Your intellect has impressed all the professors, so why don't you take it easy for a while, Sister?When she called her sister, she was stunned for a moment. "Tell me what you need, Marie; I'm in a hurry.""Are you still waiting for my brother to pick you up? He's been seeing Sandra for a while now, if you haven't heard.""What do you mean?" she asked, frowning."Since you won't join me for coffee, here's a hint: If you want to know where you stand in my brother's life, you should head to Room No.403 at the SHANGRILA HOTEL at 9 o'clock tonight."She answered Marie wit

    "Doctor, how is her condition? Why did she faint after suffering from a headache? "Harry was keen to know."She is completely fine. She needs to get some sleep and try not to overthink things right now. She blacked out because her mind couldn't take the weight of her memories from the past.""Doctor, do you think there's any chance I'll be able to recall my past?" Katleah inquired as she awoke. Earlier, she realized she was lying in a private room and had overheard the doctor's entire conversation."Katleah, it is perfectly normal to lose track of your youth recollections as you grow older. However, there are some things that people simply can't forget from their childhood, and even decades later, they may remember vivid details. Don't strain your brain by trying to remember everything, because it will only make things worse. Allow it to appear on its own at the appropriate time when you require it."Her eyes blinked in response to what the doctor said. "Thank you, doc." She responded

    Katleah got dressed early and prepared to go down the stairs. She didn't sleep until morning because she was thinking about her dream. It's like she was there in that scene, but she can't explain to herself why she can't get the name Amarah out of her mind." She stroked the necklace she was wearing; why did she see her necklace in her dream? Could it be a big part of her past? She couldn't wait to talk to the man who had called. When Don Philip called her, she was just at the door to exit the Mansion. "Katleah, where are you going? Why don't you have breakfast first?" he pleases her. Katleah felt embarrassed and went to eat in the dining room. Marie pushed Katleah's plate violently onto the table and said, "I'll eat later, dad, I've lost my appetite." "Marie!, Don't be impolite. Please get back!" Even after Don Philip yelled at his daughter, she didn't seem to hear him. "I apologize for my daughter's behavior. She may be unable to accept the fact that her older brother is already

    They had dinner outside before heading back to the Dela Vega mansion. They found them waiting in the living room when they entered the villa. Marie scrutinized her from head to toe. "So you're the lucky girl who became obsessed with my brother? Hi, I'm Marie, and I'm your sister-in-law." She tries to pretend to introduce herself to her. Even though Katleah felt it, she didn't want to be affected."Dad, I want you to meet my wife, Katleah. That was when Marco presented her."How are you doing, Katleah? It's good, and you've won my son's heart.""Aah, uncle... I'm fine. What about you? How are you doing?" She responded timidly."Hahaha, I'm fine; I still have a long life ahead of me. Dinner is ready, so come inside," Philip expressed his excitement."We already ate outside, dad; we'd like to rest in the room first," Marco explained."Huh really? Okay, son, I already had the maids fix and clean your old room. It's best if you rest now; we'll talk again tomorrow."Marco no longer responde

    DELA VEGA MANSION"I'm telling the truth, Uncle; she did seduce Marco with her charms. I looked into her family history and found out that she grew up in the countryside. I believe she is only interested in your son's money. Uncle Philip, why don't you try to bring that gold digger here so we can teach her a lesson? If she can stand our tortures, it means she loves Marco, but if she doesn't last long, it means she only wants Marco's wealth." Sandra stated. There is nothing she won't do to make her plans happen."But Sandra, I don't wish to interfere with Marco's life; after all, he does love his wife. Let him make his own choices," Philip argued, because he knew his son wouldn't marry someone he didn't like."Will you agree, Uncle, that she will leave your son once she has gotten what she wants? Remember that you went through the same thing. You are the only one who loves Marco's mom, so she left you. Same with Marco. He's the only one who loves that woman. If you don't try now, how c

    He gently placed Katleah on the comfortable bed. He locked his gaze on her for a long moment before kissing her. "My wife, I love you. I can't let you go. I'd go insane if something terrible happened to you.""Hey, babe, what are you doing? I'm not sure why, but you've been talking like that since you arrived earlier. Nothing bad will happen to me, okay? Didn't I promise you that I'd be there for you no matter what? I'm always here for you, babe." She spoke in hushed tones to her husband. Katleah carefully watched her husband, and she could see tears welling up in his eyes. He felt that he was hiding a problem."Tell me what's on your mind, babe; I'm ready to listen. I'm your wife now, and I don't want you to leave me, babe. I might be surprised..." His lips pressed against Katleah's open lips, interrupting what she was saying.Katleah kissed him back, and they both seemed to enjoy the taste of each other's soft lips.
