When she opened her eyes, she was in a place that was strange to her. She shifted her gaze and looked around. The small table next to her bed caught her eye right away. Resting on top was what appeared to be an unopened bottle of medication and a small basin with a wet towel next to it. She started to get up, but then she felt lightheaded. Her thoughts are hazy at best right now. It was to her bed that she went back to sleep. Before she could leave the house and track down Marco, she had to muster up the nerve.

Why was he bringing her here? She can't afford to pay the rent in this large and expensive room. Wait a minute, why is she dressed in different clothes? She screamed when she saw herself under the blanket. She quickly turned around to see that she was wearing a different outfit.

What happened to my clothes? Who put on my clothes? Oh my! She had a dream about kissing Marco the night before. She was overjoyed because they had the same feelings for each other. Is it, however, a dr

    DELA VEGA CORP. CONFERENCE ROOM "Alright! That's all I've got for now. You are free to leave! Marco abruptly ended the meeting. He can't focus on the discussed reports of the department heads of each department because Katleah's face is all he sees in his mind. He was agitated and excited whenever he imagined he would always be with her tomorrow. All employees bow their heads as they rush out of the conference room, fearful of being noticed and upsetting their boss. "James?" "Yes, Boss?" "Set up the space inside my office. I'd like you to put it on another table. It's on the side where I can easily see it." Scratching his head, he asked, "Wait, Boss, what is the other table in your office for?" "James? Who's the boss, me or you? Perhaps you're thinking of staying at home during your next vacation. Just tell me, I don't want a secretary who asks too many questions." "Just kidding, boss. Hehe, I'm going to clean up your office right away. By the way, boss, Sandra Montenegro will

    Katleah is still reeling from what happened earlier. The more he seems to interfere with her life, the more he annoys her. She didn't want to think he had feelings for her, but with everything Marco had done for her in the last few days, should she? No, she is unable to fall in love with a man. She is terrified of being hurt. So she doesn't want to think about it until she meets her real parents. Upon hearing Marco's voice, she immediately regained composure."Why were you in such a rush to return to the supermall? Didn't I tell you you had nothing to do but relax at home?""How kind you are, Mr. Dela Vega, but I should let you know that I won't be telling you everything I want to do. Who am I to you, anyway? We don't have enough of a relationship for me to even consider saying goodbye to you before I leave."He froze when the girl gave a seemingly unrelated response to his inquiry. Why did it turn into what kind of relationship we have? As he turned to face Katleah, he smiled mischie

    When Katleah opened her bedroom door, she found a pile of shopping bags on her bed. She read what he wrote on the card placed next to it."For you, my wife. Hope you like it." From Your Husband.Upon reading it, a grin formed on her face. She admits that Marco's extreme sweetness draws her heart to him, but she knows it has a twin suffering. Unfortunately for her, she is only marrying Marco because of his father.Seeing the contents of the shopping bags temporarily lifted her spirits. There are expensive sleeping sets, office attire, dresses, and lingeries, to name a few. Her face flushed instantly. She seemed reluctant to go out to dinner with Marco as if she was too timid to do so. She hadn't anticipated that man personally purchasing her lingeries.THE NEXT DAY, She got up early to prepare for her first day as Marco's secretary. She quickly left her room after getting dressed and applying light makeup. Her gaze looked at Marco initially, but she didn't spot him. She exited the Mans

    "Hey! We're not done yet, asshole. Keep that in mind!" Sandra yelled angrily."You'll also remember that I never give up!" Katleah responded to the woman right away.They clenched their fists and turned their backs on each other.Katleah walked into Marco's office, leaving James outside with his lips still parted. "Couldn't these two cause the boss problems? It's a good thing I'm not as attractive as my boss." He pondered.Katleah acts in her usual manner while in Marco's office. She didn't express her annoyance with him. Even though her chest felt like it was going to explode with that monkey woman, she knew precisely her limit. "Hmm, she thought I was afraid of her?" she asked, frowning.Marco couldn't take his eyes off the strange beauty in front of him. In her corporate attire, the former became even more attractive and professional. Her aura is brave now, but why does she appear angry?""Come here, baby. "Why do I have the impression that my wife is angry?" he inquired tenderly.

    They were in the car together, but neither wanted to initiate a conversation. Katleah climbed into Marco's car because he had dispatched the driver who had taken her to work earlier. During the trip, Marco was the first to speak. "Baby, where do you want to eat?" When Tomas heard his boss's dulcet voice say, "Baby," he glanced back at the two ants behind him as if his hair were trying to protest the boss's actions. When he noticed his boss staring at him intently as if he wanted to throw him to the side, he immediately turned his gaze to the road. Though his boss was a demon to the rest of the staff, when it came to Katleah, he became a sinless angel. Katleah, on the other hand, was deep in thought. For a while, she didn't notice Marco talking to her. "Baby? What are you thinking? "He asked the girl. "Huh? Are you saying something?" Katleah responded, perplexed, "Yes, quite some time ago. I asked where you wanted to eat. Because I planned to eat outside, I didn't let Martha cook

    CITY HALL OF JUSTICE: MARCO & KATLEAH DELA VEGA WEDDINGKatleah and Marco got out of the car in front of the City Hall of Justice together. As they enter the building, Katleah considers revealing her identity to Marco."Babe, do you think it's okay if I marry you and then I find out that my birth certificate might not be accurate?" Katleah inquired about Marco."Why, baby, does your birth certificate have a mistake?""I don't know my actual age, babe. Grandma told me they only saw me outside the burning orphanage before she died. The fact that I don't speak and instead cry has led them to assume that I'm much younger than I am. Therefore, I have no idea of my current age.""For now," Marco told her, "Don't worry, babe, no matter the truth, it still doesn't affect our marriage," meaning she should accept the information listed on her birth certificate. Katleah was about to respond once more when three men appeared in front of the two of them."What a bummer, man. Why did you suddenly g

    IT'S TEN O'CLOCK AT NIGHTShe'd been tossing and turning in bed for quite some time, but she hadn't fallen asleep. She kept leaving her room to see if Marco had arrived, but he hadn't returned to the mansion earlier. Since she still needed to purchase a cell phone, she could not make any calls.She was concerned about her husband's whereabouts. He promised her he would return home once they resolved the company's problem, but why was he still not there? Again leaving their room, she went onto the veranda to wait for her husband.( DELA VEGA MANSION)Marco and Philip Dela Vega are facing each other in the Study Room. His father didn't know how to answer his questions. He appeared to be struggling to speak, not looking him in the eyes."Dad, please... answer my question! Who is Don Simon Colster, and why did he try to kill me?"He was on his way home when a bullet suddenly hit his car's two back wheels. Tomas lost control of the vehicle and immediately crashed into a pole. Fortunately,

    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.

They kept their relationship a secret from Marco to avoid making it more difficult. Their lives are in danger, so they must be vigilant right now.Marco promptly carried her into their room upon their arrival at the Mansion. "Baby put me down.''He just kissed her while his seductive eyes stared at her."What are you trying to say with those looks?" Her words betrayed the nervousness and excitement in her heart."I need to make up for the days I didn't get enough rest, babe." His sexy response took her aback."Huh? You should get some sleep as soon as possible. ""That's why, sweetie, only you can give me strength," he said tenderly, making her hair stand on end. She panicked when she felt her back against the soft bed. "You're flirting," she told Marco, making him laugh."It's always been this way with me and you." He s

    "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. James left the hospital and went straight back to work. In the mall parking lot, Sandra was about to get in her car when someone grabbed her hand. She winced at the man beside her.

    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

    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
