We are slowly moving to the end of the story. Enjoy lovelies❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Audrey's POVI was taken aback as I gazed at my brother's visage. "Chad, you were aware that devilish woman was the mastermind all along?" I exclaimed, pointing a condemning finger at that witch, Charlie (Marlie).But my brother continued to foolishly defend that villainous woman."Don't blame Charlie, Audrey. She is an innocent person and incapable of such malicious deeds!" Chad spat with fury in his tone.Damn it! I couldn't handle Chad anymore! "She said Mrs Baristanas!" I screamed at him. How could he not hear properly?"She is not the only Mrs Baristanas in this household!" Chad retorted, turning to face our mother. Wait, what was he insinuating?"Our mother is also Mrs Baristanas. And I know she did it!" Chad stated with a cold glare in his eyes. Screw him! How could he even consider such a heinous act by our own mother? She has always been kind to us and only wanted the best for her children. How could her dimwitted son be this foolish?!"Chad!..." I hollered in frustration and
Chad clenched his jaw. How dare Audrey slap Marlie? But he was powerless to intervene. And Spark reaction wasn't quick enough to prevent it. No matter what, Chad knew he had to maintain control and stand firm in his actions.Marlie ran to Chad's side, trying to hold on to him as she attempted to speak."Chad, listen to me..."Chad pushed her away from him making Marlie feel a pang in her heart as she faced his rejection. Why was Chad pushing her away?She stood there for a moment, looking stunned at him as Chad turned his face away. But Marlie knew she couldn't give up. She believed that Chad would listen to her no matter what. If she could just explain, he would understand. However, the vultures were lurking nearby. Anything she said in their presence could be used against her. So Marlie wanted to tell Chad to listen to her explanation in private, away from their prying eyes.Once again, Marlie rushed to him, this time taking hold of his hand. But Chad looked back at her with a cold
"Let's have a conversation!" Norbert exclaimed as soon as Marlie was out of sight. The vultures observed, perplexed as to why Norbert desired to speak with Chad.They might have feared that Chad would try to defend Marlie, but given recent events, they knew Norbert wouldn't stoop so low as to beg for his daughter to remain in the marriage after Chad's rejection.They understood that the purpose of Chad's discussion with Norbert was to finalize their plan on how to make Marlie follow her father."Will he ruin our efforts?" Angelina anxiously asked. "No, no matter what he does, my son will never take his daughter back." Silvia replied confidently.Chad asked Norbert to follow him and the two ascended to Chad's study. The way Chad coldly asked Norbert to follow him was utterly convincing, leaving the vultures seated with jubilation over their victory. Dream on!Spark and Gideon, with nothing else to do, decided to depart. As they turned around, Audrey couldn't resist taunting Spark."Ar
Marlie's father, Norbert, observed his daughter's actions. Charlie, who was typically polite and calm, appeared just like Marlie except for their facial differences."Marlie?" Norbert questioned, shocking both Chad and Marlie. Marlie's heart raced as she wondered how her father could have discovered her true identity, especially in front of Chad."Dad...what...what are you saying? Why are you calling me Marlie?" Marlie responded, attempting to deflect her father's suspicion. Chad chose to remain silent. Just before Marlie arrived, he had been about to reveal the truth to her father - that Charlie was deceased and the person in the house was Marlie. He realized that lying wouldn't be a good idea, so he decided to stay quiet, even when Norbert gave him a suspicious look."Dad, I'm sure you must be confused. You probably want to meet Marlie, which is why you're mistaken," Marlie asserted with a soft tone, trying to cover up her tracks.Surprisingly, her sentence worked. Norbert believed
Exiting the bedroom, Chad spotted Marlie approaching from his side. With swift movements, Chad descended the stairs, noticing the vultures still perched on the couch.Upon his descent, Angelina sidled up to him, enfolding his arms and casting a sly glance at Marlie, who stood on the stairs. Growing increasingly irritated, Marlie's expression darkened as she quickly made her way down the stairs, while Angelina continued to gaze provocatively at her.Angelina intended to disclose her plans of remaining in the house to Chad, but he beat her to it. Once Marlie reached the bottom of the stairs, he informed Angelina, "I invite you to come live in this house. Feel free to bring your belongings." Chad maintained his composure, flashing a sweet smile at Angelina. Naturally, Marlie was now seething with anger."What?!" Marlie exclaimed loudly."No way. She is not going to live here. She dares not!" Marlie warned, her voice filled with cold determination. Chad knew she would respond with a fierce
Up from the kitchen Chad climbed, food tray, containing food and wine, in hand, making his way to the bedroom.Marlie had not emerged for dinner, nor had she eaten anything at all. Thus, Chad decided they would share a meal together in their own room. Wasn't he the one who didn't want her near him?He found Marlie pacing in the bedroom. Chad was met with a glare the moment she laid eyes on him. Why did he defend those witches?Seeking to apologize, Chad approached Marlie. "Forgive me, sweetheart. I had to intervene because you were taking things too far!" Chad sighed as he spoke.Marlie's anger transformed into shock. Was Chad actually offering an apology? Wasn't he the one who had wanted to cast her out of the house? What had happened? Had Angelina cast a spell on him?Chad realized the shock on Marlie's face. She kept silent, abstaining from any remarks. Chad was anticipating scolding or even a physical response, yet Marlie simply stood there, scrutinizing his expression."Come on, s
Marlie found herself rising late with a slight headache as a result of her indulging in the wine the previous night. She had no time to reflect on the events of the prior evening and promptly proceeded to the bathroom to commence her shower. Coming out from the bathroom, she proceeded to open her wardrobe with the intention of selecting a nice outfit. "Finally, Chad has come back to his senses"Her joy turned sour when, to her surprise, she open the wardrobe. Marlie was taken aback as she discovered that only one garment remained hanging. She couldn't help but wonder, "Where have my clothes disappeared to?" Marlie checked everywhere to see maybe she packed them somewhere in her drunken state, but they were no where to be found.Could it be that Angelina had taken them? Was she planning to burn Marlie's clothes as a form of retaliation? Marlie had no choice but to don the purple dress left hanging in the wardrobe and venture downstairs to confront the person who dared to pilfer her
Upon Marlie's exit, Spark anticipated her outside, observing her stoic expression, and yearned for a different outcome regarding Chad's chosen path. The challenge of persuading her not to despise Chad loomed ahead.Marlie opted to ignore Spark, intentionally withholding any communication, even though Spark eagerly awaited her acceptance of his offer to drive her.As Marlie circumvented Spark, he couldn't help but feel agitated and vexed. He found himself caught in the middle of their conflict, despite his unwavering support for Marlie. Why were his efforts now being disregarded?"Marlie...""I have no desire to hear anything from you."Marlie uttered icily as she made her way down the frosty road. It was a residential area, devoid of readily available taxis unless summoned. Consequently, Marlie had no choice but to embark on a considerable distance before procuring a cab.Driving slowly, Spark implored her to pause and accept his offer of a ride, ensuring he took her wherever she wish
"Are you interested in consuming me alive?"Marlie, standing in front of Chad, taunted him with the question."you...""What?"She abruptly cut off Ken as he tried to intervene, leaving him astonished and retreating to his original position.Marlie then directed her attention back to Chad, she wasn't done with him, as he had referred to her as a stray cat. "What? Did you happen to skip dinner last night? or You don't have money to buy food so you want me to buy you some?" She continued mocking him by asking.Each sentence uttered by Marlie shocked the onlookers. Was she truly audacious enough to openly mock Chad like this? Little did she know that her actions were only drawing him closer.Yes, Chad stood there, feeling annoyed, but not at Marlie for mocking him. Instead, he was frustrated with his friends for allowing this embarrassing first encounter. "How could they let our first meeting turn into such a disaster!"Marlie had moved closer to Chad, causing Ken to quickly step in and p
Marlie's attention was drawn to the daggers being aimed at her, prompting her to suppress her boisterous laughter. The intense stare from Chad sent shivers down her spine. This marked Chad's second encounter with Marlie, which only fueled his annoyance towards her."How dare she?!" exclaimed Ken, sneering and shooting an angry glare at Marlie from his seat. "And on top of that, she's just a first-year?"Gideon voiced his shock, exclaiming, All of this wouldn't have been possible if he had known about the so-called speech from the beginning. "Damn you guys!" Chad inwardly cursed his friends but knew he had no choice but to finish his speech. "This first-year student... she must face the consequences of her actions!" Ken roared.******"If it wasn't for Charlie's persistence, I wouldn't have to endure this monotonous college life! Everyone here seems like mindless zombies, how infuriating!"Marlie realized that the school environment clashed with her personality and attitude. She did
Flashback to their final year in college: Chad had been the one who encouraged Spark the most when they were in their fourth year of college. "Bro, you have to approach her with confidence," Chad had advised Spark on the day Spark had wanted to approach Charlie. "Just go ahead and tell her already!" Ken exclaimed, frustration evident in his voice as Spark's fear overcame him and he hesitated. "After a year of being in love with her, you've gathered the courage now, bro. Don't hold back, go for it," Gideon also encouraged him. But Spark admitted his concerns, "I'm just worried she might not feel the same way," Both Gideon and Ken chuckled at that. There was no denying that Spark had it all. He was not only good-looking and intelligent but also kind-hearted. He was also quite popular. I mean, all four friends were popular, but Chad had always been seen as their leader.They all came from well-off families, but Chad's family was considerably wealthier than the rest if them. "You
Overwhelmed by shock, a wave of intense emotions engulfed me as I heard Chad's confession, causing shivers and nervousness to course through my body.Contrary to what one might think, it had nothing to do with my sister. The tears that were present just moments ago vanished into thin air.I sensed that his gaze had shifted towards me, and without a doubt, electric charges were surging through my entire being.Shouldn't I be worried or continue crying?"No, no, he cannot approach me. He must keep his distance... Don't, don't..." I knew I had to leave. I couldn't listen to my heart. Deep down, I was aware that if Chad were to hold me, I would lose myself in his embrace."Marlie, I..."Those were the last words I heard from Chad before, oddly enough, I found myself fleeing from the room... escaping the overwhelming rush of emotions and the shivers that traveled down my spine when he uttered my name.His voice alone set my skin ablaze. I tightly gripped the door handle with one hand while
Audrey's revelation may have shocked the world but Chad remained emotionless as he listened to their conversation. Even Marlie was taken aback. However, Marlie didn't need to intervene anymore as the situation was about to explode.In a deranged manner, Angelina burst into laughter, her hand pressed against her cheeks. It wasn't just Audrey who had reached her breaking point, Angelina too."Do you dare claim that you helped me to have your brother? How dare you say that to me?!" Angelina shouted, storming towards Audrey. Meanwhile, Marlie had taken her place beside Chad, and the cameras eagerly zoomed in on the unfolding drama."What did you do? Tell me! What efforts you made to assist me, you wretched daughter of a whore!" Angelina's words caught Chad's attention. He couldn't help but wonder if she knew something. The others were equally curious. Indeed, Angelina was aware of everything, and today seemed to be the day she intended to reveal it all."Watch your words, Angelina!"Silvi
The Wedding Day:In the morning, Chad and Marlie awoke eagerly, prepared to confront the witches head-on. However, the witches were equally prepared and pleased that it was Chad and Angelina's wedding day. They were also celebrating the supposed freedom of Angelina's father, Sanchez.As the time approached and everyone got ready, Chad received a call from Gideon."I need to inform you of everything, Chad. You must know what I discovered.""I am at the house. I'll wait for you here," Chad replied, while Marlie helped him with his necktie.To Chad and Marlie's surprise, their partners had also been called to the mansion. They wondered why they were there, as they hadn't invited them. Nevertheless, Chad didn't mind letting them in and waiting for Gideon.But who had called them? Gideon? Yes, Gideon thought it would be better to have them around, just in case Chad's emotions got out of control upon hearing the news.It was at that precise moment that the partners arrived and Gideon entered
The next day(a day to the wedding)Upon finalizing their plans, the witches were fully occupied with their preparations. The wedding was merely a day away, leaving them with an abundance of tasks to tackle. In addition to the usual wedding arrangements, there was the matter of organizing a bridal shower for the witch.How lucky.However, holding the event at the mansion was out of the question. They sought an alternative location, and it dawned on them that the Sanchez house would be ideal. Good!Eagerly, the witches gathered their belongings ready to go to the Sanchez mansion. Chad kindly accompanied them, ensuring they safely reached their destination. Angelina had decided to make her way to the wedding venue from her own house. Perfect opportunity for Marlie to enter the mansion. Vien was tasked with tidying the house, ensuring it was presentable for the arrival of Lady of the Mansion, Marlie.As soon as the witches vanished from view, Marlie swiftly entered with her luggage. She
When Marlie ventured out of the house in the afternoon, Chad was obliged to engage with his laptop and avoid any plans of going out to encounter the bothersome faces of the witches. His nanny would handle his meals.And naturally, once Marlie departed, she headed straight to Mark's place.At the arrival of Marlie at the door, the first person she laid eyes upon was Spark. Spark, from head to toe, casted upon her a glance of disdain."Wait a minute, weren't you the one who urged her to go?" that was the query Mark had been directing towards Spark when he stationed himself by the door, seething with anger."Why are you arriving now?" Spark's initial afternoon greeting, brimming with annoyance, to Marlie. "You may as well remain there!""What are you doing? Are you not going to let her enter first?" Mark inquired, perplexed."Stop defending her!" Spark bellowed."I am not defending! Weren't you the one who made her go there?" Mark retorted."Yes, solely to deliver the letter, see Chad,
Chad's PerspectiveMarlie, a vision of beauty, captivated my gaze as I admired her from head to toe. "What a stunning woman to have as mine," whispered my inner beings to my soul. A surge of desire washed over me, urging me to go claim those rosy lips. The sight of Marlie, whom I had missed for days, made my eyes darken with longing."How did you manage to arrive here?" I asked, barely able to utter the words, my eyes never leaving Marlie for a moment. I feared that this might all be a dream, one that I did not wish to wake up from. Truth be told, I hadn't seen her enter the house, nor did that asshole inform me of her coming."I brought the letter for... your fiancée," she teased with a smile. Her words interrupted my thoughts for a moment. "Fiancée?" I exclaimed, vowing never to accept such a ridiculous notion. I was relieved that I hadn't married that woman to begin with. I was grateful that I caught her in bed with Audrey's ex-boyfriend, that scoundrel, John. And I was glad that A
