Chapter 30

Ria's POV

With my eyes widened in fright, I kept moving backwards, trying to map out a route of escape but there was none.

A drunk Miguel wasn't one I could deal with.

Whatever it was that was up his sleeves, he was definitely going to achieve it since I was powerless before him.

“Please don't come any closer.” I pushed my hand forward, trying to stop him but he wouldn't listen to me.

“I'm not going to hurt you Ria, why do you keep running away from me?” He burped, slowly making his way towards me.

With each step he took, I sank deep into the wall. It wouldn't be a surprise if I ended up getting embedded inside the wall.

“Please don't come any closer.” I said in a breath but he didn't listen.

“I won't hurt you Ria, you have to believe me okay.” He slurred in his speech, making me even more frightened.

Shutting my eyes tightly, I pushed my hand into my hair as my heart constricted against my chest.

What have I gotten myself into?

    Chapter 31Ria's POV What I expected from him was a quick response but he didn't say a word, rather, he kept staring at me like I was a piece for auction. “I asked a question.” I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper this time around.If only he hadn't left, I doubt if Miguel would be able to create a scene. “Dress up.” He said and immediately, I snapped my head in his direction. “Dress up?” I repeated his words in a question-like manner as I kept staring at him like he was an alien. All I wanted was a response from him but he changed the conversation, asking me to dress up. Glaring at him with my hands across my chest, I didn't say a word to him but my actions were enough to tell him I was defiant. “You should do as I have said instead of acting up.” He smacked his lips as he plopped on the couch, crossing his legs. “Why should I dress up? It's not as if I have anywhere to be at.” I cast the wall clock a quick glance before returning my attention to him. “You have to giv

    Chapter 32Luca's POVThe look on her face after my response was neutral but I was certain that a million thoughts were swirling through her head. Walking past her, I quickly made my way into the house only to step out a few minutes later to meet her staring into space. “Is there a problem?” My voice must have started her because she had swirled around with knotted brows. “I'm sorry.” I quickly apologized and when she did say anything after this, I cleared my throat to get her attention again, “Come with me, I will show you to your room.” “Yeah!” She nodded, hurrying into the building. After showing her to her room, I took my leave only to find myself standing behind my window, staring at the city which was now covered in darkness with my hands tucked inside my pockets. Though I didn't show, I felt bad that she had used me to get over Miguel. Pushing the thought aside, I allowed my gaze to roam around for a while until I became sleepy and then retired to bed. The next morning,

    Chapter 33Ria’s POVNodding to the other end of the pack, I said, “There is a cool spot over there. We should hurry before it gets filled up.” While we made our way there, Luca passed side-talks that made me laugh out loud. Before now, I had always considered him to be cold hearted but it turned out that was the part he had decided to show me. Right from the arcade, his laughter warmed my heart, making me want to spend more time with him. When we got to the foot of the pine tree where I had chosen, my phone beeped in my pockets. Curious to find out the content of the message, I pulled out my phone, “Please excuse me.” I said, eliciting a nod from Luca who was looking around. I know where your mom is! If you want to see her, come to the address I will send in ten minutes. — This was the content of the message. Excited, a smile spread across my lips as I fist pumped the air to show my excitement.“It seems someone just won a lottery.” Luca commented. “No! This is more than a lo

  • My Ex-Husband's Brother    TWO WEEKS!

    Ria's POV It had been two weeks now since I started living with Luca and I must confess, it wasn't a bad decision after all. Unlike before when we were always at loggerheads, that wasn't the case anymore as I had understood him fully now. The anonymous person that kept trying to get my attention was not relentless and even though I managed to ignore him, in my leisure time, I was tempted to visit the address. “I’m heading out, I will be back before midnight.” Luca said from the foot of the stairs. At the moment, I was in the dining room, scrolling through my laptop in front of me. “Yeah!” The moment he banged the door shut, I fell back on my seat and then let out a low sigh which was followed by my beeping phone. Thinking it was the anonymous person, I refused to pick the call but the caller was persistent. In anger, I grabbed my phone off the table only to discover it was Priscilla on the line.Darting my eyes around, I muttered, “What does she want from me?” With my teeth

    Chapter 35Ria's POV.At this point, I realize I was the foolish one. I should have just told her that there was nothing between Luca and I instead of me confirming her suspicion. I guess I would have to give it a try now even though I wasn't sure if it was going to work or not.I took the papers which she had dropped in the desk and then tore it into pieces. Her mouth were wide opened while she let out a soft smirk."Do you think I am a fool? You want me to sign these based on our speculations? You really think you are going to take what belongs to me? The properties which my father left for me?"I wondered what made her think I couldn't claim what belonged to my Father."I knew you have been eyeing those properties ever since you stepped into that house." She said in disgust, wrinkling her nose. Her hands went to her waist as she then moved closer to me.I leaned forward slightly while I maintained a steady breath showing that I wasn't afraid of her."Woah! You have really grown som

    Chapter 36Ria's POV"You guys should leave me alone, I am too drunk for all of these." I mentioned, while I tried to stand up."Ria." I heard that voice once again. I loved it whenever he always came to me when I was in trouble. The guys who were at my front ran off immediately.Who knew they were going to be scared of just one man? Or did they know him somewhere before? "Yes." I looked behind me, and there he was standing. His phone right in his hands, with his fingers clutched tightly as if the phone was going to call off his hands. I tried standing up but I staggered as I fell again, my butt hitting the floor hardly while I let out a soft wince. "You just stood there and watch me." I muttered looking at his face, even though it was getting blurry."Are you angry?" I questioned, pointing my fingers right at him but he didn't bulge. I tried standing up again, hoping that he was going to assist me but I hit my butt right on the floor again. What in the hell was this kind of pain?

    Chapter 37.Luca's POV.I wished she realized how much she was hurting me with those words. I thought I was tripping at first when she said she was falling for me, but I didn't realize she wasn't sure about it yet.She was probably saying gibberish too because she was drunk. "You should sleep." I mentioned to her before she was finally able to let go off her.I wanted to know what and who made her like this. Furthermore, I just left her in the dining and within a few minutes she was outside already. My hand reached for my pocket, bringing out my phone while I dialed one of the security man who I was affiliated with."Can you please check the security cameras around the restaurant and let me know who Ria met with?" I texted him and then mentioned the name of the restaurant afterward.He knew Ria and he usually help me with a few personal stuffs which had been helpful so far.

I wasn't expecting this, I never expected this to happen.I thought the announcement he was going to make will be something else, or about someone else. I never imagined it was going to be me.He left the front of the standing microphone, leaving me to say something. What in the hell do you want me to tell your employees?I just have little experience when it comes to cosmetics. How must did he trust me for him to put me in that kind of level? Or was he returning back a favor? I haven't been useful to him for the past few days."Uhm, I'm really speechless guys." I started talking. Oh my! How could I start on a wrong note this way? My first statement was followed by a laugh laughter from the crowd and it seemed like they were pretty okay with it.It really wasn't that deep."This is really shocking for me just as the way you all are in shock." I continued talking."My regards goes to the CEO fo

Do you think I was after you because of your mother? You must have guessed wrong. I really want you." He further added."What do you say? Do you want me to come and visit this night? What do you say about that?" The text kept on popping in, while I kept on reading everything."About your child too, I really hated it when I realized that you were pregnant. How could you get pregnant for him? You made the biggest mistake by being pregnant by him, and I will also make sure that the child doesn't get to live long."

I mentioned to her looking the wall clock.She sat on the couch, "I came here to discuss about Luca and I." She stated."I bet you haven't asked him the reasons why the both of us broke up in the past? We were so in love with each other but we still had to do it." She crossed her leg, while she was staring at me who was still her to sit. "Oh, I guess he must have moved on the past now."

More like I was being stalked and he knew everything about me. "I was actually going to see someone that day, and then I saw you on the way. I was so surprised, honestly." He finally got to talk. "I wondered what you were doing in that area, because it seemed kind of far from your house here." He shrugged his arm."Oh! That explains why I saw you there that evening. I guess it was just a coincidence." I mentioned, and he nodded."It was just a mere coincidence. There is nothing else behind it." He bit his lips while he still stared at me. "I even got a lot of calls from my friend that evening after realizing that he didn't see me later." He answered, rubbing his palm against each other. "Uhm, you two are on a good terms now?" He questioned, pointing his thumb behind him, which was toward

    Chapter 72Ria's POV"No! No way. I'm not pregnant." I blurted out before he could even utter another word."Why would you think I am pregnant?" I scoffed, laughing so hard, trying to make things no stronger too suspicious."What if you are, though? Don't you want to get pregnant? Why are you saying it like it is something bad?" He questioned."It's not bad—" I itched my hair. "What if I am not just ready for it? I still have a lot of things in my life to figure out. I'm yet to even raise myself well; how can I raise a child?" I continued, squinting my eyes."That's why I have you. We can figure things out together." He held my palms, and that gave me the chills. "If you are pregnant right now, I will make sure to do the best I can to raise the child," he added, and then I busted out into laughter."We both have a lot of enemies, right? Who wants to make sure we don't get to progress? Do you think it is going to be that easy for the both of us to defeat them?" I questioned. "The child

"You are two months pregnant ma'am, and we will start making schedule for your meeting so—" I didn't allow him to complete his sentence before interrupting him."What if I want to abort the baby? Is it going to be too late now?" I panicked, while the smile on his face faded slowly."I'm really sorry, uhm—" He paused, bringing his hands together. "Yes, this is the best time for you to do that." He added."I am going to give it some thoughts, and let you know what my final decisions are going to be." I left the room, with the documents in my hands.I needed to come up with a good solution at this point. I entered in to my car while I drove off to my apartment straight off.It was in the evening since that was the time I made an appointment with the doctor. I reached the parking lot whi

    Chapter 70Ria's POV.I guess I should have just told him to stay behind earlier. I was so feeling so damn guilty right now for letting him go. I started feeling nauseous and I could easily tell it was due to the fact that i stood in the rain yesterday. That also made me have a fever last night.I stumbled through the apartment, my hand covering my mouth as I desperately tried to hold back the wave of nausea. But it was too late. I made a beeline for the bathroom, bursting through the door just in time. I dropped to my knees in front of the toilet, my body heaving as I emptied everything that was in my tummy."What the actual fuck!" I cussed, while another wave hit me again.My hand was holding the toilet so tight, not wanting to let go off it. My head started spinning and I could also feel my body shaking. Why was this really happening to me? I managed to stand up, while I walked towards the sink slowly immediately after flushing.I splashed the water onto my face, and the stared

It felt like I was about to go crazy.I was at the front of her door already. I couldn't count how many times I have been here, but I was unable to press the doorbell.I took up all the courage I had left in me and then rang the bell while I waited for a reply. It was taking too long."Did she go out this morning?" I questioned myself, but there was no place she was supposed to go to. Except if she already has a job and I didn't know about it.My fingers clenched together after seeing the doorknob twisted, revealing her standing at my front, but someone else was also standing with her. It was her neighbor, whom I saw the other day.Different questions crossed my mind at that moment, but I shouldn't just get to assume things. All I needed was an explanation from her, but I don't think I was in the right position for that."What is he doing her

I know why things were starting to look this way."No way." I held back my tears while I grabbed my bag, which was on the couch, wanting to leave. "This isn't a joke. I figured out you might be the daughter of her ex-husband after I met you the other day. I wanted the both of you to reunite since she wouldn't stop talking about you." Mr. Jack continued talking, leaving me in awe.The woman walked closer to me, her two palms stretched forward as she kept on shaking.
