Chapter 51Luca's POV.My eyes flickered after what she had said, "Was this a joke?""No! She slipped and fell." She kept on pointing at the cliff with her hands covering her mouth m "Where the fuck? How the fuck did she get to fall?" I looked over the place where she had fallen, and it wasn't that far. Thank goodness, but there was no hit of someone falling here. "She just slid and then—" Jade tried explaining, but she was also short of words. What the hell was actually happening?"Are you sure you weren't the one who pushed her off?" I shouted at her. She is lucky that his father wasn't here."I wouldn't stoop so low as to that level. Why did you think I would do something that inhumane? She defended herself, and then she stood up against me cleaning her tears with her hands forcefully."You have done things that are way worse. So you can't deceive me with those words coming from your mouth." I shouted at her. "You story aren't even adding up. What made her move closer to the clif
Chapter 52Ria's POVThe way the young man who was in the room was acting was really funny. Was he just overreacting or what? Why was he so worked up about the fact that I couldn't remember my memory?I felt a pang of pain in my head. I remembered falling off from a cliff, and then I just couldn't remember people's faces, and things were just blurry."She is still suffering from the shock due to the fall. We conducted an x-ray, and there are no signs of injuries in her head." The doctor informed him, and he just nodded.I was trying too hard to remember who this was, but I could only hear voices in my head and blurry images."How long is this going to last for?" Luca questioned. I got to know his name since he mentioned it the other time."Uhm, it could last for a few hours, days, weeks, or years. I can't really tell." The doctor informed. I looked at Luca's face, and I could see the frustration written all over his face."Once you can see a slight difference or notice any changes, j
Chapter 53Ria's POV*THE NEXT NIGHT*He turned on the light immediately when we got into my house. I was better now, and I could barely feel any physical pain."I am going to sleep here, and you can just stay in the room." He mentioned as I then squinted my eyebrows immediately."Was this some sort of joke? Oh please." I rolled my eyes at his statement, which I knew wasn't from the bottom of his heart, and he was just up to something. "I want to tell you something." I called his attention, and he then looked at me. I could see the eagerness in his eyes wanting to listen to what I had for him."I have made up my mind about my feelings for you." I confessed, and there was no expression on his face. "I love you." I confessed finalizing my husband, knowing fully well that I can't take back those words.He moved towards me as he then hugged me tightly. "I love you too." He muttered as my body was wrapped in his huge, muscled arm."I hope I don't get to regret my decision." I mentioned
Chapter 54 Ria's POVI woke up, and he was no longer on the bed. I remembered what he had told me yesterday, and he also told me to change into another dress. I had no idea where we were going, but I pray it better be worth it.With the way he spoke earlier, we might be spending the entire day outside. I managed to get down from the bed while I remembered the things that had happened between the both of us last night.I wasn't going to deny the fact that he was so good. I remembered how my legs started to shake since I couldn't control them anymore. I took my bath and then did the necessary thing. I applied light makeup and decided to wear a white tank top with a green floral wrap skirt, which looked so good on me.I didn't have a phone yet since my phone got destroyed after I fell off the cliff, so there was nothing that I could use to contact him.A soft smile plastered on my face when I heard the pin to my house being entered. He was the one who helped me set up the pin; we did i
Chapter 55Ria's POV.It was a shame Luca left me at the beach like this. He said he needed to do something at the hotel and he was going to pick me up later. I didn't have any right to be mad, actually.He did a lot for me today, and I just couldn't remember the last time I felt this good. I still wasn't sure if he would be able to surprise me today.I took the last slice of the pizza that was left as I sipped the remaining wine too. I brought out my phone to take a picture of the sun setting.Watching sun set at a beach while everywhere is peaceful is something everyone on earth should get to experience.It felt as if I was connecting with the nature."A car will come and pick you up soon." A message popped on my phone while I was taking a picture. "Thank goodness." I muttered under my breath knowing that I was going to get picked soon. He sent the plate number of the cat which will be coming to pick me alongside with the text."Where are you? And where is the car taking me to?" I
Chapter 56Luca's POV."We had sex yesterday." She complained. "Are you not going to eat?" She questioned as I then stopped."Who made the rules that we can't have sex today again?." Her breath got very heavy. Our foreheads were still against each other. "This should mark our celebration of being a couple." I added."We have cake and other things." My hands went to her ass while I squeezed them as she tried bringing up other suggestions.I wasn't ready to listen to other suggestions. I just wanted to listen to her.“Too good.” I held her closer and started kissing the back of her neck. I slipped my arm inside the shirt she wore, placing my hand on her bare stomach.“Oh God,” she whispered. “Don’t make me want this again.” “Should I stop?” Slowly, my palm slid up her rib cage.“Yes.” But she took my wrist and moved my hand over her breast. “I have so many reasons why this should not happen now."“Such as?” I played with the hard peaks of her nipples; she was not putting on any bra und
Chapter 57Ria's POV.Things were really going to get disastrous for me. Why did this have to happen to me in all situations?"I'm very sure there is someone who is behind this." I said to Luca while I tried to confuse him in anyway possible. He was in a bad mood right now and wasn't ready to listen to him.My scarf covered my face very well while I hoped no one was going to see me. The cosmetics products which I had released a few weeks ago was starting to make people break out badly including me.My face was literally peeking right now and it looked as if something was added to the products. His company was under tension right now and a lot of search is going on.We were both waiting on top of the roof for his private jet that would be coming soon."I shouldn't have given you the position." I heard his saying in regret. His hard work were all starting to go into thin air, all thanks to me. I was the one who caused everything.His private jet was sent to pick him up by his brother ev
Chapter 58Ria's POV.I paced around my office while I thought of a way for me to get to the root of all these problems. Where will I even start from in order for me to be able to catch the killer?The other day whereby the cosmetics products were supposed to be brought to my house. I remembered it was delayed.Was it that same day whereby all of these happened?"Are you just going to keep pacing around? You need to leave here and do something. Do you think just moving around will help you find the person who planned all of this?" Zoa questioned me while she scoffed."Oh! Please. I am finding a way for me to catch the person who planned all of this. When do you start interfering with my personal problems?" I turned back at herI know I am really tense right now and it I've just being angry with everyone. My so called boyfriend and I haven't talked for the past one day now.My face got worse and I couldn't even look at myself in the mirror. There were still a lot of customers who were
Chapter 76Ria's POV.My hands shook in fear while I dropped my phone on the desk in fear. I thought all of this was over. I thought we had already moved past this."What the actual fuck? What else do you want from me?" I shouted over the phone, moving my hair backwards.I already knew who my mother was."What? Are you not going to give me a reply? 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." He mentioned, I covered my mouth immediately on reading the last text.Who the hell was this person? I also think I have to tell Lu
Chapter 75Ria's POV.Jade walked into my apartment while her eyes roamed across the room. I have been waiting for her to call me, and then to threaten me just like the way Luca said she was going to do."Luca did great in picking this apartment for you." She stared across the room"I have someone to be in the next few minutes. You came here to discuss some things with me, let's start discussing and then get this over with." 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." I mentioned, a forced smile crept on my face while I then sat close to her."That's why I have come here to show you this." She mentioned, as she brought out her phone from her ba
Chapter 74Jade's POV."Zoa, please can you come to this place. I need you right now." I dropped my phone on the desk while I waited for her to come over.She then appeared in a while. This position was really to get tiring, and now I'm also wondering the reason why I also got up pick the job at first.I have always wanted freedom and this job was limiting from a lot of things.Al I wanted to do was to make sure j get to show Ria that I could get anything I really want including her position, but I have been working all day and night like a dog."You sent for me ma'am." Zoa stood at my front."I never imagined I was going to allow you work for me after what you said the other day. That is also one of the reasons why I am giving you all of these works." I dropped another sets of files on the desk, as I then saw the frustrated look on her face.She really look frustrated, and that was exactly what I wanted, that looks on her face till she decided she was going to quit all by herself."W
Chapter 73Ria's POV."Uhm." I watched him struggle to speak. I was starting to suspect Liam at this point. Everything just seemed weird with him.Everything seemed too real to be a coincidence too. 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
Chapter 71Ria's POV.The doctor handed over the papers to me, and with the smile on his face I knew what the results meant already.Did he think being I was going to be happy after testing me positive. "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
Chapter 69Luca's POV.I couldn't stop thinking about her at this point. It has just been two weeks, and things were starting to look like this. 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
Chapter 68.Ria's POV"Was this some kind of prank?" I scoffed seeing the beautiful lady who was standing at his side. She was opposite me too, and I saw the tears flow down her eyes.I know why she looked so familiar. That was the picture the anonymous person had sent to me. 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. She wanted to touch my cheeks, but I stood up before she could get to do that."Please, listen to me. I am so sorry that I left you and I really want things to get better between the both of us. I really regret my actions and I want us to come back to
