"Don't you trust me?"

"Who sent you that picture?" This is what he said next. I removed his grip on my hands.

"Don't answer me another question, Lucas," I said coldly.

"Fine..."

"The woman in the picture is my step-sister, Sanya. The baby? That's my niece, Charmaine. That's her daughter." Somehow my heart slowed down after I heard him say these words, but there was still a bigger part of me that doubted.

"Step-sister? You have a sister outside? You didn't tell me that, Lucas." He sighed and rubbed his temple slowly. I bent down slightly and tried to follow his gaze, because I wanted to see if he was really telling the truth.

"I know, Dianna..."

"And I really want to apologize to you because I didn't say that, that I didn't let you know even when I was dating you."

"T-The truth is that our family's past is complicated, especially when it comes to her. She's been through a lot. She's addicted to drugs, despite being a famous model. She's been going back and forth to rehab.

    "Dianna, where are you going?" After she told me where his cousin Dylan lived I went straight to the garage to my car. "I'm going to talk to your cousin, Chelsea! She needs to tell me the reason why he's messing up our lives." "Huh? Why? Wait a minute, I really don't understand you." I closed my eyes tightly and then looked at her for a moment. "Oh, why do you look at me like that?" "Chelsea, do you know something?" "What? I really don't get you, Dianna." "The unknown number that sent me the picture is none other than Dylan's number. Didn't I show you the message? Why didn't you tell me that it was Dylan's?" "I didn't notice that, Dianna. Dylan's number that called me earlier must have been three weeks since he bought it. He has two numbers from me, and I still haven't memorized them." "Another thing is that my cousin is not a bad person. Even though he grew up in another country, I know his true character. If he is the one who sent it, he is sure of it." I took a deep bre

    He just returned after his work in London two weeks ago, which I'll admit added more distance between us, but all the wasted time we spent with each other in the past few months was replaced by his warm embrace. I now feel true joy more. "This is one of the things I missed so much honey," I said as he pulled me closer to his body and hugged me. I rested my head on his shoulder. "Me too. We are too busy with our jobs. But I said, I will get back to you." We stayed lying on our bed just enjoying the warmth coming from each other. This is it, we have started to fulfill our dream as a couple. I just looked up at him for a few moments. "Um, so..." I began. He was already looking at me, waiting. "We can start planning to have a baby, right?" He nodded at me and gave me a deep look. As I see his reaction , I couldn't help but smile broadly. "Of course. I'm actually researching on google how I can make you easily pregnant. As well as those things that I need to prepare for whe

    "Bye honey! No need to cook for our dinner later. I'll just buy it outside." He quickly kissed me on my cheek. I nodded to him. "Be careful!" "Are you sure you won't go with me?" This is one of the things I enjoy. Since he came back here to the Philippines, almost everything has gone back to the way it was before. "I want to but I haven't gotten dressed yet, my work schedule is still later. You'll just be late if you wait for me." "Okay then, take care too." I waved my hand at him and when his car started and I couldn't see him anymore, I entered our house. I was about to go up to our room to take a shower when I noticed his cell phone lying on the table in the living room. "He left his cellphone ah..." I whispered. I walked towards the phone and thought that his secretary at the company had just called to let him know that he had left it, but before I could do that, his cell phone rang, someone texted. "R.D?" I read. My heart was pounding, and then I grabbed the necklac

    "Ma'am, please don't tell Sir. Lucas, I showed you the list of his appointments." I sparingly smiled at Jovelle. "You don't need to be nervous, Jovelle. So go ahead, show me that." Her hand was shaking as she handed me a folder. "Thank you, you can leave me here for now." "Go ahead, Ma'am." After she left my husband's office, I turned my eyes. I opened every cabinet on his desk, but I didn't see anything unusual there. Next I approached a suitcase, but it had a code so I couldn't open it. When I couldn't find anything out of the ordinary, I turned my attention to Lucas' list of appointments. I swallowed before opening it. I skimmed the first page until I got to the fourth page. My heart beat faster when I saw the dates and times. The place was different, but my eyes focused more on his schedule the day before he went to Batanes. "Blocleaf Cafe? Roxanne Domingo?" I read in some detail. I felt weak and sat down on a swivel chair. I clutched my chest, as I continued to t

    "Ahh..." "My head hurts. It's a good thing Lucas hasn't come back from Batanes yet." "Chelsea, thank you, by the way. It's a good thing you picked me up, so you saved me from the guy who had plans to disrespect me at the bar last night." I looked at her as she remained speechless. "Why are you silent about that? Did I say or do something wrong to you last night?" worried that I asked her more. "Dianna, I'm not the one who saved you from the maniac guy you are talking about. I'm not the one who took you to your house either." I leaned back in my swivel chair and let go of the ballpoint pen in my hand. "You must be kidding. You're the only one I know who knows I was in that place last night." My voice dripped with disbelief. "I'm telling the truth." "If it's not you, who is it? Could it be my husband? Did he go there for a moment and take me home before he went back to his work?" Her eyes were rolling because of what I said. "It's Dylan I'm talking about, Dianna." I laughed

    "Then that's a double celebration! I am so happy for you, Dianna." Chelsea looked at Lucas who was next to me. "And of course, this Lucas' dream of having a family will finally come true. Isn't it Lucas?" "Maybe this husband of yours jumped when he saw that your pregnancy test was positive! Right, Lucas?" I looked at Lucas and then I lightly squeezed his hand that was holding me. "Yeah..." "By the way, why don't you seem happy? You must be happy because it's your first child with Dianna, or maybe it's the second that I'm just not aware of?" I saw how Lucas swallowed. I pointedly looked at Chelsea, to which she just laughed. "Oh hey, let's go! I'll talk to my other guests first. Thank you for your gifts." Chelsea kissed my cheek, before she left us again. When Chelsea was out of my sight I looked at Lucas. He kept rubbing the back of his neck. My gaze fell on our hands holding each other, I could feel the coldness of his. "Lucas, are you okay?" "Ah, y-yes! Where is their

    I woke up to the light of the sun coming from the bedroom window. I opened my eyes and saw that Lucas was no longer by my side. I got up and tied my hair. I peeked out of our room when I noticed a shadow. I put on my cellphone and slowly walked. "Good! I am willing to double the money. As long as you do what I tell you to do." He hid his cellphone on the side below him. And he went down the stairs. My mind wondered who he was talking to, but another day passed without me knowing. The following days passed, I still did not receive any news from the private investigator I hired. In the quiet garden behind our house I ate another slice of mango, Chelsea did the same. We both stopped our work first, that was my own decision, while he was what Dave ordered her to do, which at first she didn't want to follow. "Your belly is already big, Chelsea. Your husband made the right decision," I said, pointing with my fork to her protruding belly. Chelsea's face glow more. She really love

    I was already on my way out of our house to visit my brother Leoncio, when I heard the doorbell ring. I put my bag first inside my car and walked quickly towards the front door. "Wait a minute," I stopped right before opening the door, as I saw Dylan who was just looking at me with his arms crossed over his chest. "What are you doing here?" I asked him. "I need to talk to you, Dianna." "If it's about the old matter, just forget it. I also don't care what your opinion is about my husband and me. Besides, as long as it's only possible, I don't want to see you again." "I didn't come here to argue with you. I just want you to listen, that's it." I stared at him. I could still see him glancing at my belly. "Fine, go on! I'll give you a few minutes. I have something to visit, and I still need to call my driver." "Aren't you going to let me in first?" My eyebrows meet as I rolled my eyes. "Wow! You are so demanding , Mr. Rios." I noticed that he held back his laughter, but he als

    I don't know exactly how I will feel. My cheeks were wet when I stopped my car in the garage of the house. It took a long time before I got out of here because until now I feel like heaven and earth have thrown me down. I washed my face. I couldn't stop crying especially since Dylan was completely gone from me, he didn't even know that we were going to have our first baby. I know it's all my fault why he broke up with me. I can't blame him for that. Even if I want to follow him to Hong Kong, I don't want to be selfish again. Maybe it would be better if he was far away from me for now so he wouldn't get hurt anymore. My shoulders slumped as I stepped into the front door of the house. I opened it, then hit the light switch. My eyes rolled, my lips parted and it trembled again when I saw who the man was standing there, holding flowers, while he opened one of his arms. "D-Dylan!" I ran towards him and then hugged him tightly. "I'm sorry...I'm really sorry. P-Please, don't le

    I took a deep breath, as I decided to call him. It is just so stupid of me to believe that I can handle the fact that I will no longer have someone like Dylan Rios in my life. But then, despite the multiple attempts to call him, I didn't get a chance to reach him again. It was a night filled with remorse. I was leaning on the end of my bed with a box on top of my thigh where Dylan and I kept some of our photos that we had taken in New York and other countries where we had vacationed. In a cemetery where my unborn child is buried in, I put down my head and slowly caresses his tombstone. Sadness drew in my heart. "Sorry baby..." "Your Mom had been a monster. I'm a fool to think that you'll be proud of me in heaven. Maybe you're already embarrassing me there." I laughed bitterly, while I can feel the corner of my eyes hiding a tears older. "Your father hurt me so much, and the pain he inflicted on me grew into anger, and those emotions turned me into something I didn't want to

    "Am I really the one in your heart or it is still your ex-husband?" he asked me sadly. "Dylan, it's true—" His shoulder went down and wiped his tear-soaked cheek. "I promised you that I will support you in everything, that I will not leave you." I see the pain the way he looked at me. He knew how much my heart was broken—he saw my scars yet he still tried to comfort me. But I am the one who is hurting the person who saved me. "A-And I'm really sorry, Dianna..." Another tear fell from my eyes. I held him in his arms again. "Sorry because I can't fulfill my promise anymore. I love you so much, you know that. But it hurts so much." "It's painful to see that the person you love still can't completely forget the man who just hurt him. It's painful to love a woman who doesn't seem to be done loving the first man she loved more than me." "It's hard to compete. It's so damn hard, Dianna." "N-No, Dylan..." I hugged him tightly, and I felt his shoulders tremble. "Let's stop making t

    I continued to made them suffered. Every day my tiredness is relieved whenever I hear about them having difficulties.From a nice house to a cheap motel they are living. But of all the things that happened to them, the news that Roxanne stole something from a popular shop is the one I will never forget. Those are just some of the evidences that they are really suffering. "Nanny, who is that?" I asked, after I came out of my work office in my house and heard some yelling. "Ma'am, there are two people that are struggling to talk to." My forehead furrowed. I glanced at the watch on my hand. It's nine o'clock in the evening. "Alright, nanny. I'll take care of it." I walked towards the door and found Lucas and Roxanne still arguing. "What are you doing here? It's late at night, aren't you ashamed of my neighbors and you're still fighting here?" "I told you, Lucas. We shouldn't be coming here! Do you think this woman can help us, especially since she's the cause of all the troubl

    I'm on my way to my company. Today I plan to focus on my important meetings with new investors. I glanced at my watch again, there was probably an hour left before I got to the company.When I returned my gaze to the road again, my driving slowed down as I noticed the crowd and the traffic on the other side of the road."What's up?" I whispered to myself. I opened the window and then I saw a familiar car. It was Lucas' prized possession, a symbol of his former wealth. I put my car aside for a moment then watched Lucas fight the repo man. His face was red with anger, his voice was so high pitched that even birds flew away.He was gesturing wildly at the car, clearly desperate to stop it from being taken away. I couldn't stop laughing at what I was seeing now. The man who used to be in the news because of the achievements he received is now laughed at. Deciding to have a little fun, I got out of the car and approached the crowd. "What's — Oh, Lucas Rodriguez, is that you?" I

    "To what do I owe this unexpected visit?" I met his dark look at me. I am sure he's here to urge with me again. "You are really collecting sins, Dianna. You're the reason why we're suffering today!" he said softly but firmly then held me tightly by my arm. "Let go of me, Lucas," I ordered him threateningly, but he didn't listen. "Don't you have a conscience, huh? Because of what you are doing, our daughter is also suffering." I gritted my teeth, because he didn't want to let me go, so I was the one who removed his hand from my arm. "Ah, it's so surprising that you know that word. Why, Lucas? Do you have a conscience for everything you did to me? You hadn't, so why would I give you the quiet and happy life you want if you didn't let me to have it?" "The tables have already turned. Don't you like your situation now, it's your time to shine." "I'm not kidding, Dianna." My left eyebrow rose. "Oh, why? Who said we're joking here, Lucas? We're not." I saw how his jaw darkened, the

    "Mommy, mommy, I'm hungry!" I heard Reanna's cry from the speaker. I leaned back in my swivel chair and continued watching. I feel a little bad for Reanna, though I know that she doesn't have any bad things to do with me, she needs to suffer also because she's the daughter of those people who make me suffer first also. "Reanna, don't annoy me, okay? I told you to go to the kitchen. Open the refrigerator and find anything to eat there!" Reanna started to throw a tantrum."Roxanne, what's going on?" As I started to heard Lucas voice on the record, I feel more the excitement within me. "Your daughter keeps crying. Come on!" The camera feed was briefly cut off and only resumed when it covered their kitchen. I watched as Roxanne opened their refrigerator. I watched her reaction, as she saw nothing but an empty fridge, there's no even a single food there. "Shit! Lucas!" she exclaimed, like the only hope she has, even disappeared. "Lucas, come here!""Roxanne, can't you see I'm still loo

    A new day greeted me. I hold in my hand the two folders where Lucas's work that should be finished is placed. It was only a few steps before I could give it to him when I saw Roxanne. "Where is that girl of yours?!" "Roxanne, don't make a scandal here." I saw how Lucas pull her on the side. I cautiously approached and hid on the side. "And why not? That Dianna is taking you away from me!" Lucas looked around before bowing slightly and approaching Roxanne. "Don't ruin my plan, Roxanne." I leaned against the wall behind me. "Just make sure, Lucas. You wouldn't want me to get mad." Lucas closed his eyes for a moment. "Yes! Just a little more time, I think her heart is really soft for me." "Oh, this! I cooked that." Lucas took it. "Alright, go now! Maybe instead of finishing my plans right away, I'll have to wait a little longer because of your preening." Roxanne glared at him and then he kissed her on the cheek before turning away from her. I was especially hidden from

    I broke away for air, my breath hitched and I closed my eyes. And after some seconds our eyes met again, he kissed me deeply and I closed my eyes once more. Our tongues intertwined. The shallow kiss deepened, his body was even closer to me, which is why I was lying on the bed. He kissed me again, but this time I felt his hot tongue inside. The heat I felt flared up even more. "M-May I?" His voice even trembled when he asked me, the way he looked seemed to be asking permission for whatever he was going to do. I smiled at him and then nodded. He took my clothes off as I pulled his shirt over his head. I felt him move underneath me. We were both breathing heavily by the time he rolled us over so that I lay on top and began to fondle my breasts. I moaned and grabbed his back. "I love you, Dianna... I love you so much.." he whispered as his lips touched my neck. "I-I love you too, Dylan," I said as my breathing intensified. I understand Dylan's explanation that he can't give
