From her seat, Melody could see how happy her father was. He kept smiling throughout the service, and Melody was sure he couldn't wait for them to be pronounced husband and wife. That would mark yet another happy moment in his life.
“And now, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride,” the priest said.
That is just what Hector had been waiting for because he didn’t waste any time in doing that. The whole church went wild in ululations. Everyone was happy.

“He has a relationship with my daughter,” Melody had reached the room by then and was shocked her father had found out about her and Siril. How did that even happen? Did he overhear Selina and Siril?Everyone was quiet, and Melody wished she could disappear from the face of the earth.Seeing that as the perfect chance to make their relationship public, Siril told Hector that he loved Melody.“How can you say such a thing. She is your sister now?”“I know she is my sister, but we aren't related by blood. We know what we are doing, and we hadn't planned to fall in love, but here we are. Very much in love with each other.”“How can you talk to me like that?” Hector said, moving towards Siril. It happened so fast, but before anyone could stop him, he threw punches at Siril and cursed him.The hard slaps and fists brought Melody out of her reverie because she came to her senses, surprised Siril was

Everyone was sure he was joking because why wouldn't he. He had made it clear he loved Melody, and confessing to loving Kate now seemed something strange.“What? You don't believe me?” Mark asked, seeing everyone thought he was joking.“How can we trust that? This morning, you were at my place wanting my dad to kill me, and you now act as if that was nothing.” Melody said.“I came to your place to warn you to talk to your dad before Kate did. I am a new person. I changed because I have been in therapy lately, and I realize that I don't want to be the old me. You started shouting at me, and I thought, why not act like a jackass in the presence of your dad so that he doesn't beat me up like he beat Siril. I love myself, ooh,” Mark said.“I am sorry, Siril. That wasn't my plan. Please forgive me,” Kate apologized softly.“We can't change what had happened already, but we can move forward to being b

She didn't know what hurt her the most: to be left behind by him or to be blocked?Hector and Selina's relationship had also strained. Selina felt bad that her son had to sacrifice for her. She felt Hector was to blame.Siril had not contacted her since he left, and melody wouldn't talk to anyone, so Selina didn't know whether or not she had been in touch with Siril.“This is all your fault. Is this the happy family, we both wanted to have? My son walked out on us, and I haven't heard from him since. Your daughter is here but acts like none of us exists. Maybe had you let them be, we would all be here? At times we have to let our kids make mistakes and learn from them. We can't protect them forever,” Selina said.She was tired of bottling her resentment because Hector didn't seem to be able to read between the lines. Or was he ignoring it?“I didn't ask him to leave. He left voluntarily.”“I knew you wouldn't ad

Paraiso was home to a mountain that was well known as an active volcano many years ago.Robert Lancaster, a 34-year-old man who had worked as a journalist with Legacy Media Enterprises for over half a decade, went to his workstation full of energy as usual. At the beginning of his career, he had lots of problems. He landed many jobs because of his hard work and ambitions but always fell out with his employers because they couldn’t agree on his pay.“I can’t do all that work for such little money. You have to add something to my salary,” he would often tell his boss.“Mr. Lancaster, we agreed on what we would be offering you. What has changed?”“Everything. The cost of living has gone up, and the work am doing is so much. Surviving on the little pay you give me is almost impossible,” Robert would reply.The only respons

Robert and Steph had been summoned to Stella’s office. After confronting Steph, Stella had come up with a perfect way to solve the dilemma she had.“Thank you both for coming here. As you both know, we previously had conflicts of interest regarding who should cover the Paraiso story. I have carefully looked through all possible options and come up with one that will serve all of us well.” Stella said.Steph had her heart in her hands. She had attempted to play the cards in her favor, but it seems her plan wasn’t going to work.There was no one she could pull Stella down without her going down as well. Robert, on the other hand, seemed relaxed.
