ALEJANDROFuck! Fuck!Fuck!Why in the world did I say something so ridiculous? What was I thinking? I didn't need anyone to tell me that Alice was hurt by the things that I said to her and that was what prompted her to slap me in the first place. I didn't mean to say such mean things to her but it just happened to come out of my mouth and now I feel really bad for the things that I said because it wasn't even the truth. I don't think Alice has ever cheated on me and I doubt that she would ever do such a thing but because I needed a reason to end the topic so that I don't have to keep defending myself, I said what I said and now my words have only seemed to make things much worse. "How dare you say such a thing to me, Alejandro? How fucking dare you!" she hissed furiously and lone tears streamed down her face. "You dare to claim that I'm cheating on you and that the child in my womb belongs to someone else when you know more than anybody else how loyal I am to you?" she asked and
ALEJANDRO "I don't know if you've noticed this, but we are no longer as close as we used to be. Things between you and I used to be so much different than this but now, everything seems so odd and I'm wondering if you've thought of the reason why things are like this between us," I said. I walked toward the bed and sat in a space that wasn't too far from where she was seated on the floor. "I'm scared, Alice. I'm afraid that things between us are going to become so bad especially now that you seem to want to distance yourself from me and I try not to talk about things like this with you because I don't want a situation where you would end up asking for a divorce," I told and she frowned. "What? Why in the world are you even talking about divorce right now?" she asked, sounding very surprised and I like a reaction because it was exactly what I wanted. "It's because of the way you're making me feel right now. Lately, you tend to stay away from me and I know it's because you're suspi
ANNAI can already sense the crazy tension between Alice and Alejandro and being between them right now was making the air a lot more toxic and uncomfortable. They both still haven't said a word to each other since I joined them and knowing how weird that is, I couldn't help but suspect that something was off with them. I also noticed that they were kind of avoiding each other and even though I wanted to ask Alice what was going on, I didn't know if I would be doing the right thing by asking her because I don't want to seem like I'm prying into their business. I could easily find out what was happening from Alejandro because I'm sure he'd tell me but regardless, I still had every intention of asking Alice instead because I feel like I needed to hear her side of the story. I decided not to say anything during dinner because I didn't want to make things even more awkward and another reason I didn't say anything was that Alejandro didn't seem like he was in the mood to make any small
ANNA The first thing that I noticed as soon as I opened my eyes was that I was lying on a bed that felt comfortable and uncomfortable at the same time and the entire room was painted white.'What was I doing here?' I asked myself before recalling what had happened to me earlier.I passed out."Oh, thank goodness that you're finally awake, Anna," Alice said as she pulled me in for a hug."How are you feeling? Are you dizzy? Does it hurt anywhere?" she asked and I shook my head. "Can you see me? Are you certain you're fine?" she asked again, taking a look at me from head to toe. "I feel just fine, Alice. You don't have to worry," I replied to her, so she would calm herself and stop being so extra. Thankfully, the doctor walked in right at that moment. "Oh, I see you're awake!" he remarked and I offered a tight-lipped smile. "I do have something to say to the patient but I'm not sure if you'd want me to say this in front of an outsider or if you'd rather listen to it on your own. Wh
ALICEIt's been three days now since I last spoke to Alejandro and he also hasn't made any attempts to speak to me. He had even gone as far as moving out of your room but I didn't bother going after him or trying to convince him to come back. I just didn't feel the need to do that because to me, his sudden reactions made him even more suspicious and I was having a bad feeling about all of this. It's not like I'm solely going to blame him because I'm aware that I have my faults as well but, he has been acting very differently for a very long time now and his behaviour was starting to bother me. I know that I shouldn't have attacked my day without any concrete evidence and I'm also kind of nervous about all of this because I didn't even know where to start and I also don't know how all of this is going to end. I wondered to myself at some point and asked myself if all of this was worth it because I could turn out to be wrong and Alejandro might not actually be cheating on me but thin
ALICE “Then what happened? Why is this happening to us?” I asked again.“I don't know how I should answer that question because I'm also confused as to why all of this is happening to us. It's not like I want to play the blame game or anything but, you're the one making things difficult for us by suspecting me and thinking that I would even ever think of betraying you. It's just starting to feel like you're looking for a reason to just end our relationship,” he replied in a defensive tone and I was pissed. I hated the fact that he was always defensive because I can't understand why he needs to be. I just asked a simple question and I expected him to give me a simple reply and just try to sort things out between us but instead, he's placing the blame on me and also trying to defend himself like I accused him of anything. I managed to smile not because I wasn't upset but because I intended to catch him in the act because he just proved to me that it was cheating on me and there was
ALEJANDRO Anna suddenly called me and asked me to meet her in some weird place that I had never even heard of. She already gave me the room number and she informed me that she'd be there waiting for me and that I should hurry up. When I arrived, I could understand why she wanted us to meet in a place like this. We've been doing everything that we can't be much more careful especially now that we knew that someone was watching us and keeping tabs on our every move. Anna was smart enough to come to this kind of place because the person that was keeping tabs on us would probably never imagined that we would come to a place like this together so that was all the more reason why I wasn't upset. “You wait here and I'll be back shortly,” I said to my driver before getting out of the car and making my way into the building.It didn't take too long for me to arrive at the room number that she had given me and as soon as I knocked, the door came open and I closed it immediately after I wal
ALEJANDRO I walked closer to her. "Listen babe..," I called out, taking a deep breath and letting it out. "Babe, I beg you to please listen to me and try to understand me," I pleaded.She folded her arms across her chest and looked away. "I need you to understand that this isn't about you being the other woman or anything like that but it's about the fact that Alice and I are married and she also happens to be pregnant with my child. How am I supposed to tell her or tell the world that I was having a child with my wife's sister at the same time my wife is having a child as well?" I asked. "I need you to take your time and think about how this is going to affect both our lives. What are you going to say to your parents and Alice when they find out that you're pregnant with my child? You know that I care about you a lot but you also have to think of how this baby is going to bring a lot of problems for us," I said to her hoping she'd finally come to her senses. She needed to unders
TWO YEARS LATERALICEI have never for once imagined getting married to Kelvin before being in a relationship with him. He has always been my friend, someone who I cherished and was grateful to have by my side. Kelvin is that friend that came to my rescue when I didn’t expect him to. After Anna died, I took Fiona as my own and began to nurture her.She looked just like my sister. Those eyes of hers were like eyes and each time I looked into her eyes, I am reminded of Anna. I have completely forgiven Anna in my heart and I will be raising Fiona as if she is my own.Fiona is indeed mine because a child or my sister is mine too. Today is my wedding day. Funny right? Yes, it is my wedding day. Something I never expected and I’m getting married to Kelvin. I did not hope to find love in anyone after my last situation and I decided to focus on myself and raise Fiona in the best possible way ever but then Kelvin happened.How it happened, I do not know but I found myself thinking of him and
ALICE "I am so sorry Alice. It's all my fault," my mother cried and I had to pull her back from the hug."It's none of your fault, mother. You did nothing," I told her, wiping the tears in her eyes but she shook her head."It's my fault. I caused all of this. I should have been a better mother. I should have seen the signs and known when things were wrong. I was just being stupid letting them fool me and allowing them to act like some married couple and hurting you more than ever. I'm so sorry Alice," she spoke at length with tears in her eyes and her voice croaky.“It’s not your fault, mother. If we all begin to take blame, then we all have our faults according to Anna. The truth is, maybe this was meant to do from the start. Maybe I should have never gotten married to Al. Maybe I should have never fallen for him but then I did and that’s it. It’s all fine.”I let out a small sigh. “It was difficult for my mother. Maybe I took the punishment too seriously…”I said that in regards to
ALICE I used to hear a saying all the time that sometimes when something feels like the end, it can sometimes just be the beginning of a new start for you and all you need to do is just be ready to embrace whatever is coming to hit you. After the emotional roller coaster that I have to go through and after reaching my goal of getting back at Anna and Alejandro for everything that they did to me, I couldn't help but feel kind of empty on the inside but I was trying my best to remain hopeful and positive because I felt like I still had a lot of things that I could end up doing. Anna ended up in a psychiatric hospital where she is being looked after and as for Alejandro, I was successfully able to divorce him and since he didn't sign a prenup with me, I was compensated with half of his properties and I still had the company in my name because I refuse to give it back to him.Alejandro has been trying to get across to me for a really long time now but I refused to grant me any sort of
ALICE "As for you Alejandro, you are a sick and disgusting bastard not just for lying to me but for putting me in this condition and without considering the fact that I'm here because of you, you did so many horrible things that even led you to losing so much. You are a disgusting piece of shit and I hope you rot in hell," she hissed at him, with an upset look on her face. She grabbed the nearest chair in front of her and threw it toward Alejandro and the way she was acting was so creepy and crazy at the same time. I was honestly quite amused that I was successfully able to drive her crazy and make her seem crazy but I kind of felt bad for her that she was this way when she had so much potential but anytime I remember everything that she did to me, I end up being happy about my actions and laughing at her for finding herself in this situation. "I'm going to advise you to remember the condition that you're in and get a hold of yourself because I'm definitely not in the mood to deal
ALICE"I honestly don't care about whatever it is that you just said right now because as far as I'm concerned, this company is mine and there is nothing that you can say or do to take it away from me no matter how hard you try," he said in a stern and confident manner and I laughed. "Are you trying to prove to yourself that you're not a good listener or what? What other proof do you need to realise that this is no longer yours anymore because it's now in my name and the official document says it all?" I retorted, finding his confidence quite amusing. I had every intention of playing with his emotions and making him feel frustrated for every time that he made me feel less of myself and for making me feel like I wasn't good enough because of his habit of being unfaithful. Alejandro glanced at Freya. "How could you have done something like this to me even after I trusted you so much? So your only objective for approaching me was to just set up a trap for me and watch me fall into it?
ALEJANDROThe minute I heard Anderson mention something about what I did to Alice, I couldn't help but question if he already knew about the situation that was between Alice, Anna and myself and I couldn't help but also question what he knew and how he found out. I was starting to wonder if the relationship between Anna and I wasn't as discreet as I told you I was because even Freya mentioned something earlier and it kind of bothered me. "It is exactly what I just said and you can freely take it however you want to," he answered."The both of you hurt Alice and you expect her to want to see you both happy? Why would she? And you think the papers are forged? Do you not recognize your own signature again or you need someone to confirm that you indeed signed those papers?" he asked."You need to be more direct with whatever you're trying to say because I don't understand what you're trying to say," I demanded. I couldn't understand what he was going on concerning Alice not being happy
ANNAThe fact that Alejandro just stood there and kept listening to all the nonsense that this stupid girl was saying to me without defending me or telling her to shut her damn mouth up was very upsetting to me and I found it very disrespectful that he didn't even have the balls to just stop this. The only thing that I could think of was that he probably told her everything that happened between us because absolutely nobody knows the whole story and judging by the way she's talking, it seemed as though she knows quite a lot and Alejandro telling her everything was definitely the only way she could have known all this. I hated him for saying things about us to a total stranger that didn't even understand the basis of our relationship and I also hated her for having the audacity to say all this nonsense to my face when she doesn't even know the whole story or understand my relationship with Alejandro. "You have absolutely no right to talk to me however you please I'm going to have to
ALEJANDROI had no intention of going to work today but I got a call from my secretary that a woman was waiting for me and I asked for her description only for the description to match Freya's. I was confused as to why she would show up in my office without informing me first because it's unusual for her to just go there without telling me and I couldn't help but wonder what she wanted by going there.Since I already told Anna that I was going to spend the day at home, I had to quickly lie to her that something came up and I had an important job to finish up so that she wouldn't find it weird that I suddenly had to leave the house. Thankfully, she didn’t ask what it was that I was going to do and I was able to leave without getting questioned unnecessarily.I called Freya on my way to the office because I needed to know why she went there with her telling me first but she simply told me to show up first and I would talk when I arrived.When I arrived at the office, I saw her standing
ANNAFROM ALEJANDRO: Come to my office. I want to see you. I have something to discuss with you in person. I was really surprised to see this text message from Alejandro because he just left the house not too long ago and I didn't understand why he couldn't tell me what he needed to tell me while he was around. He also knows that I've been trying to avoid coming to his office because of my pregnancy. I don't want people to ask me questions on who the father of my baby is and he and I agreed that I wasn't going to show up at the office until I gave birth. I tiredly made the decision to get changed, take a bath and head to the office even though I haven't a clue why I needed to go there. I didn't feel the need to take a driver so I drove myself to his office while thinking of what he could possibly want to say to me and why he made emphasis on my presence being important. I arrived shortly and got out of the car. I made my way to the company building and thankfully, I was allowed i
