Her father’s brows furrowed further, the confusion in his eyes grew. Sensing her father will never say another word , nagpatuloy siya sa pagsasalita.

“It's okay, Dad. I could never think of you as a murderer. And even involve T’yo Berting just to get back at Gael. I knew you will not go that far. I know you were just trying to take me back but I was stubborn and… “ Muli siyang humikbi, napuno ng pagsisisi ang dibdib.

Looking back now, she realized she can still have other options to do then other than stupidly marrying Gael. Marrying Gael was like a curse of neverending troubles-- just like their love was filled with neverending goodbyes.

Oh how she wished she can go back and undo her mistakes.

“You should’ve told me as soon as Gael came back, Charlie. Kahit na hindi sa akin agad. Kahit na sa Mommy mo man lang o sa Uncle Joshua mo,” pukaw ng Daddy niya sa kanya, maya-maya.

“I-I got scared, Dad. I’m sorry. You almost died on me and…” She shook her head, trying to shake off the dre

  • Loving The Lost Billionaire    Chapter 71: Quest For The Truth

    “Will you not say anything, Gael?” pukaw ng lolo ni Gael sa kanya nang manatili siyang tahimik pagkalipas ng ilang sandal dahil sa sinabi nitong balita. “Aren’t you happy that I’ve bought you the perfect weapon to exact your revenge against the Sandejas family?”He gritted his teeth, fury slowly overcoming him. Kung noon siguro 'yon ginawa ng lolo niya, noong hindi pa siya bumabalik sa Maynila, he might have consider it. But not right now. Not when he was not the same man who's only after revenge when he left Germany almost two months ago.He is far from elated right now. Truth be told, he is pissed! He wanted to yell and curse at his grandfather. Tell him how he fcked up everything that he planned for him and Charlize. Tell him how wrong he is in doing things he didn’t even ask for him to do. And how close he is from severing ties with him right now for wanting the downfall of the very woman he had learned to loved twice in his damned lifetime!Last night, for the first time in five

    Ang malakas na pagtunog ng cellphone ni Charlie ang nagpagising sa kanya bandang alas-dos ng hapon. She opened her eyes and looked at her son who was still sleeping beside her. She gave a faint smile and gently caressed Levi's cherub cheeks. Her son stirred a little, subalit muli ring bumalik sa pagtulog. Patamad niyang inabot ang kanyang cellphone sa bedside drawer. She huffed when Maria's name registered on her phone's screen."Yes, Maria--""M-Ma'am, nasaan po kayo? M-may problema po kasi dito sa cruise line. A-ano po kasi..." Her brows furrowed. Hindi niya kasi masyadong maintindihan ang sinasabi ng sekretarya, there were too many noises on the background.Maingat na siyang tumayo mula sa kama at naglakad patungo sa bathroom. "Can you repeat that, Maria? I didn't hear you the first time," sabi niya. Subalit hindi sumagot si Maria. Ilang sandali pa, she heard a crushing sound on the phone, followed by Maria's scream. "Maria, what's happennig? Maria are you still there?" nagmamad

    Gael opened his eyes only to close it again when he was met by a bright glaring light coming from the ceiling of room he was in. He feels light and heavy at the same time which doesn't really make any sense!Where was he anyway? What happened to him?Few moments more and he heard rushing footsteps toward him. "S-Sir, are you okay?" said the familiar voice. When he pried his eyes open again, he saw the familiar face of his assistant Hugo. "Let me call the doctor," sabi pa nito bago nagmamadaling lumabas ng silid.And just like that, the events of the day replayed in his mind like a movie that never ends. Ang muli nilang pagkikita nina Sir Joseph at Sir Aaron, ang resulta ng pinagawa niyang imbesigasyon kay Gray, and pagsugod niya sa SSL Cruise upang daluhan si Charlie at...Agad siyang napabalikwas ng bangon sa hospital bed nang maalala ang huling eksenang naaalala niya bago siya nawalan ng malay kanina.

    Kumurap si Charlie. Hindi niya alam kung epekto pa rin ng nangyari kanina sa kanya or sa iba pa mang dahilan, but she's sure that for a while her logic had failed her and she was tossed instantly into the sea confusion with Gael's words. What did he mean he know now? Did he mean..."Naaalala ko na ang lahat, Charlie. N-Nakakaalala na 'ko," he continued in a pained voice before taking another step forward. Agad siyang nag-panic. "N-no!" she protested. "D-don't dare to take another step,, Gael." She cannot afford to be near him. Not when her heart was racing... overwhelmed by his presence yet again. Indulging Gael this time would mean failing her family again one more damn time. At pagod na pagod na siyang saktan ang pamilya niya dahil lang sa pagmamahal niya kay Gael.She knew now, Gael's hunger for revenge is raging and it burns anyone who comes near him. That's why she is where she's at now--burned and breaking. But she cannot blame anyone. She was a willing victim.She took in a s

    Gael was driving like a madman. Patungo siya sa Gold Hotel upang kumprontahin si Lena. Today had been eventful. From learning about Alaric and Lena's lies, to regaining his memories, and now learning that he and Charlie had a son!A son who looks exactly like him, that is!Nagising siya ngayong araw na ang gusto lang ay panghawakan ang natitirang anumang pag-asa ng pagkaaayos nila ni Charlie. But now after getting his memories back, he learned he has a son? Talking about wishing too hard. He huffed. Maisip pa lang niya ang mag-ina niya naninikip na ang dibdib niya. Bakit hindi? Ni hindi man lang niya malapitan ang mga ito. Ni makita siya, mukhang ayaw na rin ni Charlie. At hindi niya ito masisisi.He really fcked up! Big time!Maski siya galit sa sarili niya. How did he allow himself to drown in hatred for the only woman he had ever loved? Why did he allow Alaric to talk him in to it?

    Alaric grinned as he stared at the picture of the rally he staged at SSL Cruises. He just ordered a commotion but he got a full blown rally instead-- injuring the Sandejas girl in the process.He puffed the smoke from his cigar into the morning air with great satisfaction-- mentally noting that he should give Remus and Alphonse, his men currently in Manila, the raise they deserved for exceeding his expectations. He sent them there to be his hands in working on the plan to force Gael to leave to the Sandejas girl.It has to be his men this time because he cannot trust his weakling of a daughter anymore. Lena cannot keep a man by her side. How can she make it to the end of his plans against the Bernsteins?He pushed his cigar on the ashtray-- annoyed by events of the past few weeks.Truth be told, he's a little disappointed of himself for not acting earlier. He should've forced his pathetic weakling of a daughter Lena to stand her ground the minute Gael raised his unexpected plan to st

    “Beer?” alok ni Gray kay Gael.He was at his friend’s house, in an attempt to let the sleepless hours go by. After talking to Lena, he tried going home to sleep. But he just couldn’t. Not when he had a lot of things in mind.“Thanks,” aniya bago tinanggap ang beer-in-can na inaabot nito. He popped open the lid and drank from it. Matapos niyon, muli niyang tiningala ang langit.The night sky was peppered with stars. It’s the kind of sky that Charlie loves.Charlie.He released a slow breath. Hindi niya mapigilang isipin kung kumusta na kaya ito kahit na ilang oras pa lang mula nang huli niya itong makita. He wanted to see her again. Ito at si Levi. He wanted to have both of them in his arms and never let go. But even then if could that, he knew it wouldn’t be enough to fill in the times he was not with them.Muli siyang uminom ng alak.Ilang sandali pa, naramdaman niyang tumabi sa kanya si Gray. They were sitting at the steps of the small stairs leading to the garden.“Tell me, what a

    “Who are these people, Hugo? I do not know any of these people!” Aksel Bernstein irritably asked the loyal assistant of his grandson Gael. He just arrived from Manila a few minutes ago. He did everything as Gael instructed him when he left Germany. He left without his guards. He did not notify any of his servants in the mansion about his plan of leaving. He did not even told Alaric where he’s going. He flew via the chartered flight Gael had arranged for him. Inside it were people he didn’t trust but Gael does. And now, he’s being met by another group of men instead of his grandson? Now he’s flustered. All these strangers surrounding him is making uncomfortable. If it weren’t for the fact that Gael was rushing for him to leave Germany so that they could talk about this ‘traitor’ in their midst, he wouldn’t have flown half-way around the world just to be subjected in this confusion. “They are the people whom Sir Gael had worked with before, Sir,” Hugo replied as the assistant opened t

    “Again? Pero puno pa ang fridge niyan, love. Nakita ko kagabi nang bumaba ako sa kitchen,” reklamo ni Gael kay Charlie nang muli siyang maglagay ng dragon fruit sa cart. They were out grocery shopping in a local grocery store in Cancun. They have been staying there for a week now in celebration of their second wedding anniversary. It was a trip she didn’t really want to take at first because she easily gets tired lately. But when Gael told her that she will call the shots every time, she was in in no time. She rolled her eyes and faced him. “Can’t you get it? I’m not buying them for me to eat. I’m buying it because they looked cute,” pagrarason niya, muling naglagay ng dalawang piraso pa ng nasabing prutas sa cart. Gael huffed. “Should I buy you a dragon fruit farm?” “Of course not!” sabi niya, muling naglakad sa aisle ng prutas na kinaroroonan nila. “What about a grocery store then? You want me to purchase this grocery store for you?” Namawaywang na siya at hinarap ang asawa.

    “Are you ready?” tanong ng Mommy ni Charlie sa kanya. She filled her lungs with air and gave her mother a slow nod. “Yes,” she replied smiling. Gumanti ng ngiti ang Mommy niya, nangingilid ang luha. Masuyo pa nitong inabot anag kanyang pisngi. “I wish you all the happiness in the world, sweetheart.” “Thanks, Mom,” sabi niya bago niyakap ang ina. They stayed like that for a while bago sila nakarinig ng katok sa pinto. “Hey, the music’s starting and all the guests are waiting. Don’t tell me may balak ka pang itakbo ‘yang anak mo, Sam,” said her father’s familiar voice outside the door. Natatawa nilang binitiwan ng Mommy niya ang isa’t-isa. Sandaling nitong pinunasan ng panyo ang gilid ng mga mata nito bago siya muling nginitian. “Let’s go. Your Dad cannot wait to give you away… officially,” pabirong sabi ng Mommy niya bago inabot sa kanya ang kanyang bouquet. When her mother opened the door to her room, she was met by her father’s loving gaze. “Finally,” anito, nakangiti. He gave

    It was a manic day for Charlie. No. It was chaos spelled in all caps. She was supposed to wake up an hour ago for her scheduled appointment. But because she and Gael stayed up late yet again last night, there she was rushing to fix herself so she could run to where she’s heading to for the day. “Hey, slow down, beautiful. You’ll hurt yourself,” nakangiting sabi ni Gael sa kanya, sumandal pa sa hamba ng pinto ng walk-in closet niya—looking so handsome with just his lounge pants on and nothing else. “Go away, Gael. You know I cannot be late today,” sabi niya habang naglalagay ng sunscreen sa mukha. She’ll need lots of those sa pupuntahan niya. Gael chuckled. “Bakit, hindi ka naman late a. You still have at least an hour and a half to spare.” She scoffed and picked up her blush powder. She won’t wear her full make-up today. “An hour and a half spare that I’ll spend for travel. You know how’s Manila traffic in the morning, Gael. It’s one of the worse and I can’t afford to be late toda

    Sandaling namanhid si Gael sa kanyang nasaksihan. Panandalian niyang kinumbinsi ang sarili na imahinasyon niya lang ang lahat. Na nasa maayos na lagay si Charlie at walang kaguluhan na nangyayari sa mismong araw ng kanilang kasal. He even tried to blink a few times—willing the dreadful scenario away from his head. But when he opened his eyes, his bride, his wife still laid there on the cold ground, bleeding.With his chest constricting, he tried to stand up, wanting to go to Charlie as soon as he can. But his bodyguard nearby kept him from doing so. Anger burned his skin in an instant. He had to go Charlie and no one, not even the damn death god himself could prevent him from doing so.He turned himself onto the ground, lying on his back, and gave the bodyguard hovering over at him a straight jab to the jaw. Napaupo ito, bago siya mahilo-hilong binitiwan. He took that chance to crawl his way to Charlie, who fell near the entrance of the church. ‘I like the water, Kuya Gael. Can you t

    Kanina pa nasa harap ng salamin si Gael subalit panay pa rin ang pag-aayos niya sa kurbata ng kanyang suit. The damn thing just won’t align!Frustrated, he took it off altogether and huffed.He’s anxious for some unknown reason. Gray, who arrived last night, said at it must be the wedding jitters but he refuses to believe so. He’s just on edge because he didn’t get to see his wife and son for hours now. Sneaking in at Charlie and Levi’s hotel room crossed his mind a few times last night. With his skills as a former elite boduyguard, he could do that with no sweat involved. But his grandfather gave him a talk about keeping his word and just wait until it’s time for them to meet at the altar again. Subalit naging sobrang napakahirap niyon sa kanya dahil sa iisang hotel lang silang naka-check –in na mag-anak—just different floors. Idagdag pa na talagang makulit si Tala at panay-panay ang pagbabantay sa mag-ina niya, h’wag lang niyang makita ang mga ito.Gray told him to have a little dr

    Lena was in the bathtub for hours now. She was watching the tiny drops of water coming out of the faucet as they join the already cold water she was soaking her body in. On the background, she can hear the news from the old TV— the dreadful news she had been hearing for her entire week now. Gael is getting married again… to his wife Charlize. When Gael broke up with her more than a month ago after he had learned about her deceit, she had always been on the run since. Her father and the authorities were after her. She cannot afford to get caught. Especially not by her father. She just knew that when her father would find her, he’ll punishher for ruining his plans. And with her state right now, she knew she'd die with just one blow. Tears fell from her eyes as her heart wracked with pain. She remembered the days when her life was better, when she had so much hope, and when she was still loved. Oh how she wished she could go back. For now, she had lost all of those and slowly losing

    “You did what?” hindi na napigilan pa ni Charlie ang magtaas ng boses dahil sa sinabi ni Tala.They were at the private office of her husband. Doon niya ito dinala upang makapag-usap silang dalawa ng pinsan nang masinsinan. Kaya lang, ilang minuto pa lang tumatakbo ang usapan nila, pakiramdam niya gusto na niyang sumuko. “I got married,” pag-uulit ni Tala. “H-he's a prince," alanganing dugtong nito, namumutla.Her eyes widened even more. Did she hear her right?"I’m sorry, what?"Tala released a slow breath. She looks flustered as she was. "Knoxx is a prince of a small country called Maritria. It’s somewhere in the Mediterranean. I don’t know more than that. I stopped my research the minute I’ve learned that his family was related to the British royals.”She paled and gasped aloud. "You married into royalty?!" she asked in disbelief, her voice a notch higher.She had always known her cousin to be troublemaker, wild like how the world put it. But Tala really outdid herself this time.

    “Des Auge (Eyes).” “D-des Auge.” “Die Nase (Nose).” “Die N-nashie.” “No, schatzi. It’s die Nase.” “Die N-nase.” “Very good, Levi! You are a fast learner just like you Dad.” Nagmamadaling lumingon si Levi kay Charlie. Her son’s eyes were sparkling with pride. “You heard that, Mommy? Grampy said I learn fast like Dadddy!” Charlie chuckled and walked over at the bed where Levi and Aksel were. She reached for her son’s cheeks and gave it a gentle pinch. “I heard that, sweetheart. Now why don’t you go with Jacob for a while and let me help Grampy with his food,” aniya. Mabilis na ibinalik ni Levi ang mata kay Aksel at nagmano sa matanda. “Bis später, Grampy! (See you later, Grampy!)” bibong sabi ni Levi bago lumabas sa silid ni Aksel. “You raised a really smart boy, Charlie,” ani Aksel nang sila na lang dalawa ang naiwan sa silid nito. "That's because you are a great teacher, Aksel. Don't you agree?" she said as she helped Aksel sit on the bed. The old man chuckled and spoke som

    “Here, have some coffee,” ani Charlie habang ibinababa sa harap ni Gael ang tasa ng kape na siya rin ang may gawa.Nag-angat ng tingin si Gael sa kanya. His eyes, just like the few days that have passed, was distant—gloomy. It was as if she's not there. O mas tamang sabihin na nasa iba ang isip nito. He forced a smile. “Thanks, love,” anito bago tahimik na dinala ang tasa sa bibig nito.She released a slow breath and sat on the chair in front of her husband. They were at the balcony of the Bernstein mansion. It was already late afternoon and the sun was beginning to set on the horizon. But she feels like Gael’s day was just about to start.Ito kasi ang nagbabantay sa lolo nito sa gabi. Mula nang dumating silang mag-anak sa Germany halos tatlong araw na ang nakararaan, hindi na natigil sa pag-aalala si Gael sa lolo nito. Why wouldn’t he? The old man was shot on the chest by one of the three butlers in the mansion, whom, they had found out later on, had been working for Alaric for the
