"Why are you still awake at this time?" Alejandro asked without turning to look at her.

"Not like it's any of your business, but if it will make you feel better, I came to drink water," she replied and walked to the fridge while Alejandro's lips curved into a smirk.

"Why are you awake at this time?" Camila asked while pouring water into her glass.

She heard him let out a throaty chuckle.

"You really want to know that?" he asked. She wasn't looking back, but she could tell he was already looking at her. She pushed the glass to her mouth and tried taking a sip.

His footsteps came close to her, and she suddenly felt his shadow at her back. His strong arms went to her waist and pressed her back close to him.

"You've been on my mind all day," he whispered.

"I... have?" Camila sounded nervous and curious at the same time.

"Hmm," he sniffed her neck, and her body stiffened in his arms. "I can't stop thinking about this morning and that face you made when you were about to c*m. I want to

    15 Camila yawned tiredly as she worked on a sketch. So many papers were on her desk, and more were still coming. Her phone rang; it was her mother, and she quickly answered, having not spoken to her in so long."Camila, my dear, how have you been?" Sofia asked from the other end."I'm good," Camila replied, squeezing another piece of paper and throwing it on the floor."How is marriage treating you? I hope Alejandro isn't giving you a hard time?" Sofia asked worriedly."He is giving me hell, and I hate it here," Camila wanted to tell her mother, but she kept it to herself for reasons she couldn't explain."Everything is fine, Mom. How is Dad doing? I hope he's not falling sick again?" Camila asked about her father.Sofia sighed."Mom?" Camila called again."He's sick, Cami. He couldn't go out today because his condition has worsened. He's sad because the company is really suffering," Sofia sniffed, trying to hold back her tears."Everything will be fine, Mom," Camila could only say.

    16 BRIARWOOD SCHOOL**"Isa, have you heard the latest news today?" Chappell asked as soon as Isabella arrived."What news?" Isabella asked."There are pictures of you and Elijah from Cyber Boys holding hands, and everyone is going crazy!" Gloria quickly told Isabella."Hey, I was going to tell her that," Chappell glared at Gloria."You were too slow, sorry," Gloria mocked, and they both started slapping each other's hands.Abby rolled her eyes and moved toward Isabella."Seems like things are starting to move for you and Elijah. You've waited for two years, and I thought it was just a fantasy," Abby said."Well, it's happening now, and nothing is going to spoil things for me," Isabella smirked."Yeah, nothing except for... her," Abby looked forward, and Isabella followed her gaze. The person coming was the blond, perfect Valeria Ruiz. It felt like a heavenly light shone specially on her, making her entrance even more dramatic." Valeria, I love your hair!" Oh my God, she's using Deb

    17 Alejandro was in his office going through some files when his door opened and Camila barged in."Even my dad knocks before he enters," Alejandro said without sparing her a glance."Isn't that why I'm your wife?" she clapped back and dropped the badge Sandra handed to her on his desk."You were behind it, weren't you?" she asked, but he did not reply."I'm a little happy that you still have some empathy left in you. I was starting to think you were a monster," she mumbled, but it was loud enough for Alejandro to hear.He stopped the work he was doing and stared at her. "Here's the thing, wifey, I don't want you to flatter yourself. I take work very seriously here. Sandra broke the rules, and she's facing her punishment for it," he explained, then glanced at her from head to toe.She was wearing a blouse that showed her cleavage a little, and his eyes darkened."Do you even go through the dress code?" he asked."What's wrong with the way I dress?" Camila frowned."Everything," he re

    18D•S MALL•••••Alejandro's car stopped in the mall parking lot. His driver came down and helped them with the car door. Alejandro put on his sunglasses and stretched his hand out for Camila."I can walk on my own," Camila folded her arms. She still did not like the fact that Alejandro made her wear his suit out to the mall."If you don't accept my hand, then I'll fling you over my shoulder and take you in. Maybe you'd like that," Alejandro smirked, and Camila quickly accepted his hand.She hated how he always had his way with everything. She wished to have something to threaten him with, like he does to her.Alejandro and Camila walked in, and the employees greeted them. Some were looking at them, specifically Camila, and might have been wondering why she was wearing a suit jacket."Mr. Ruiz, this way, please," a woman dressed corporately confidently walked to them, her heels making clicking sounds. She gave Camila a polite smile as she led the way.She took them to a dressing room,

    19NEXT DAY: BRIARWOOD SCHOOL ••••Isabella arrived but didn't see her friends waiting for her at her locker as they normally do. Her eyes searched for them until she saw them gathered in front of Valeria's locker, and her eyes darkened."Guys!" She angrily walked towards them. "Why are you standing here?" she demanded."Chappell told us what you did yesterday. Trying to steal Ace when you like Elijah. That's two-timing, and it's not cool. We don't do that to friends here," Abby said."I wasn't trying to steal Ace," Isabella sighed."Then explain why I saw both of you together. You don't even care about Cyber boys. You just have a crush on Elijah," Chappell said."I like Elijah and I still do. What happened with Ace yesterday was nothing. I don't even know what he was doing there," Isabella tried explaining herself."What was he doing there, and why was he holding your face?" Gloria asked."I just said I don't know. Why are you guys being so ridiculous?" Isabella was already frustrate

    20 Camila narrowed her eyes as she stared at him. No compliment? Did she not look good enough? She wondered but quickly shook it off. She wasn't trying to impress him or anyone, so it really didn't matter if she looked great or not.She followed him to the car. The driver helped them open the door, and he couldn't resist the urge to compliment Camila."You look beautiful, ma'am," he said."Thank you," Camila smiled. At least a driver appreciated her beauty more than her husband did.Alejandro's eyes darkened when he stared at his driver and the poor man froze."Is talking to my wife why I hired you as my driver?" he asked harshly."I'm sorry, sir," the driver apologized."Cut him some slack. He was just complimenting me," Camila rolled her eyes."Then how about you get married to him and watch him save your family's company instead," Alejandro shrugged at her.Camila resisted the urge to call him an asshole. She just scoffed and looked out the window, tired of thinking about what cou

    21Camila turned to Rafael to take a proper look at him. He was indeed the one who helped her the other day."Mr. Rafael," she greeted him."Just Rafael," he corrected her, which made her smile. Rafael couldn't help but admire her looks and came to the conclusion that this lady before him gets more beautiful daily."You know, I'm surprised to see you at an event like this. Who's the bastard that's lucky enough to convince you to be his date?" Rafael then asked."Actually, she is married and you can turn around and call me a lucky bastard to my face," someone said behind Rafael, which made him freeze.Camila looked forward to see Alejandro looking at her with darkened eyes. She didn't know what she did wrong but she couldn't stop herself from gulping.Rafael turned to look at Alejandro. He stiffened a bit, still trying to digest the fact that the lady he hadn't been able to forget was married, and not just to anyone but to his rival, Alejandro."If you don't have anything else to say,

    22Camila gave him a questioning look. She wanted to complain but was interrupted when she heard everyone clapping. It felt like they had all witnessed what they did and were clapping because she put on a good show for them. But they were clapping because the jazz musician was done performing.It was weird that she didn't hear anything going on when Alejandro's fingers were inside her. She looked at him as he wiped his hands with a tissue dropped for them on the table. He gave Camila a look as he slowly wiped his hands, making sure she saw the wetness of her on the tissue."Why didn't you finish?" she asked him."It's part of the punishment. I will give you the full one when we get home," he replied, which confused Camila.Punishment for what exactly?The host came back to the stage and Alejandro turned serious as this was the part he had been waiting for."First, we are giving an award to the most outstanding businessman. The award goes to Mr. Alejandro Ruiz!" the host announced, and

Finally, Diego stepped in."Good afternoon, boss. I hope you had a good night," Diego greeted, holding an envelope in his hand. "I won’t take up much of your time. I just came to drop this."Diego placed the letter on Alejandro’s desk."I promised that once I helped take Rafael down, I’d leave right away. Now that I’m finally reunited with my family, I—""Look at these three dining options and tell me which one looks best," Alejandro interrupted, turning his laptop toward Diego.Diego blinked in confusion. Was Alejandro not even listening to him? He leaned closer to inspect the screen."They all look great, but this one in the middle stands out," Diego replied, pointing."Good. I want you to book it for tonight," Alejandro ordered, his tone dismissive."But, sir—" Diego started to protest, but Alejandro cut him off with a stern look."Y

    98Alejandro paced back and forth in the hospital hallway, his anxiety growing with each passing second as he waited for the doctor to emerge from Camila's ward."You should sit, Alejandro. She's going to be fine," Sofia said softly, her voice filled with reassurance.He glanced at her but didn’t reply. Just then, the door creaked open, and the doctor stepped out. Alejandro’s face lit up with a mix of worry and hope."Mr. Alejandro Ruiz," the doctor called."What's wrong with Camila, Doctor?" Alejandro asked, his voice laced with panic."She's going to be a mother, and you're going to be a father. She's four and a half weeks pregnant," the doctor announced with a warm smile.Alejandro froze."What? Can we see her?" Isabella asked eagerly."She's sleeping right now, but you can visit her once she wakes up," the doctor replied before walking away.Isabella and Sofia hugged each other joyfully, their faces glowing with happiness. They turned to Alejandro, who still looked stunned."Come

    97SOME DAYS LATERThe alarm blared endlessly, and to Camila, it sounded like wedding bells. But instead of excitement, it brought a heavy sense of dread—a nightmare she wished she could wake up from.“Miss, it’s time,” the maid said softly, gently tapping her shoulder.Camila groggily opened her eyes. A wedding gown stood prominently on a mannequin, and hairstylists and makeup artists were already bustling in the room, preparing for the day.“Congratulations, ma’am, you’re getting married today,” they greeted her in unison. She forced a smile in response, though her heart weighed heavily.Dragging herself to the shower, Camila let the water cascade over her. She tried to gather her thoughts but couldn’t stop the questions swirling in her mind. How did it come to this? How did everything go so wrong?Realizing she had been in the bathroom longer than expected, she quickly turned off the shower and wrapped herself in a robe. As she stepped out, the room was empty—the dressers had gone.

    96"Yes, I’m pregnant, and I came here to see George’s family. It’s a long story, Mom. Please, let me explain later," Lucia replied, cutting the call despite her mother’s protests.She met George, who was chatting with his mother."Lucia, my dear, you’ve been standing for a while. Would you like to sit?" Juliana asked with her attractive Polish accent."I’m good," Lucia replied."No, dear, please sit," Juliana insisted, guiding Lucia to a chair. "Pani Karolina, please bring Lucia some tea," she instructed, and Karolina appeared moments later with a steaming cup of tea."Hang in there, Mrs. Lucia Williams. The food will be ready in a moment," Karolina said kindly."Thank you," Lucia smiled and turned to face George."Darling, can I talk to you for a second?" she asked."Sure, I’ll excuse you both," Juliana said, stepping away.George sat beside Lucia. "Honey, what’s the matter?" he asked."My friend Camila isn’t doing well. Her family is being held captive by Rafael Marcus, and she’s g

    95FEW DAYS LATER**A few days had passed, and a lot had happened. Alejandro left Camila with Rafael and returned to his company. The place was desolate; nearly everyone had resigned, and he had lost most of his contracts but couldn't do anything about it.It was the usual, uneventful day. Alejandro stood in front of his window, staring into nothingness. The company was empty. He had no idea where to start or how to convince anyone to return, but that wasn't what was truly bothering him.He still couldn't believe he wasn't with Camila. He had signed the divorce papers and left her with Rafael. Even now, he still questioned whether he had made the right decision. He wasn't a fool; he knew why she said what she did. Rafael probably had her family under his control in some way, and Alejandro wouldn't be selfish enough to let him hurt them."Boss," a familiar voice called. Alejandro didn’t bother turning to look at the person."You should be lucky I haven’t had you arrested yet you still

    94"Is she really worth it, Alejandro? Everything you’ve worked so hard for—your company—does it mean more to you than her?"Alejandro glanced at Camila, then at the documents, torn between two impossible choices."You're wrong, Rafael! I didn’t just think about it—I worked hard for that company. I deserve everything. Every damn thing!" Alejandro yelled, his eyes reddening with rage."No, you didn’t, you bastard! Everything belongs to me! Grandpa was supposed to give it all to me, but I don’t know why you came along and ruined everything!" Rafael shouted, then turned to Camila."He didn’t tell you much, did he? He never told you how he barged into my life, stole the affection of my family, and convinced them to change the will," Rafael said angrily."I didn’t have anyone change anything!" Alejandro shot back. "Everything happened because apparently, everyone was okay with it. I did more good for your family than you’ll ever admit."Even though Camila was gagged, her confused and curio

    93Camila felt her head pounding as she struggled to open her eyes. She realized she couldn’t move her hands or legs and felt an overwhelming sense of discomfort. Her eyes finally fluttered open, and her heart nearly stopped.She was tied to a chair, positioned dangerously close to the edge of a steep cliff. Before her, several men knelt on the ground, their faces familiar from earlier."Baby, you're awake," Rafael said, stepping closer to her. He gently touched her face, his fingers brushing the bruise beneath her eye."Does it hurt?" he asked softly.Camila remained silent, too terrified to respond, her mind racing to guess what Rafael had planned."Which one of these men hit you?" Rafael asked, his tone icy as his gaze shifted to the men.Camila hesitated, her eyes slowly scanning the group. The man in the middle looked petrified, but she reluctantly pointed at him.Rafael smiled, ruffling her hair affectionately before grabbing the man by his collar and yanking him to his feet."W

I might lose myself,” she teased.George smiled. “You could never lose yourself in my eyes. Look at your skin—you’re glowing already,” he said, leading her to the kitchen.“So, what are you up to?” Lucia asked as they entered.George sighed, setting water to boil. “I’ve been thinking about what your dad said—about whether I can provide for you and the baby—and I’ve made a decision.”“What decision?” she asked curiously.“I’ve always wanted to be a chef, and I’ve been saving for years. I’m planning to open a small roads

    91 THERESA'S HOUSE***“Careful,” George said, holding Lucia’s hand as she stepped out of the taxi.“I’m fine, George. I can manage,” Lucia replied, smiling softly. Since discovering her pregnancy, George had been overly protective, not even letting her handle simple tasks.As they entered the house, George began, “Mom, we’re—” but stopped abruptly when he saw Lucia’s father seated on the couch. Instinctively, he positioned himself in front of her.Mr. Landon smirked. “Hiding my daughter from me, George? You didn’t think I’d find you?”“I’m not going anywhere with you, Dad. I’m surviving just fine without you,” Lucia said through clenched teeth.“Surviving? Look at yourself, Lucia! Your clothes, your skin—you’re barely holding on,” Mr. Landon retorted, disgusted.“I don’t care! I look better than ever, and I’m staying here,” Lucia snapped, standing her ground.“You don’t belong here, Lucia. It’s not too late to come back home—where you belong,” Mr. Landon insisted.“If she believes st
