Diana ran back to her room when the guests were gone. She rushed to the bathroom and immediately threw up that she had previously suppressed all throughout the interview. As time went on, her vomiting became more frequent. She has to hurry to get out of her grandfather’s house.Meashelle immediately followed the girl. She is worried, and it seems that her body has also been affected due to her pregnancy.“Sister Meashelle, do you think Grandpa doesn’t notice my condition?” Diana asked worriedly.“That’s what I always pray for,” she replied genuinely.Diana smiled and hugged the girl. Without her, she would certainly have no one else to lean on. She thought of a way to get out today. She has to go out to eat what she has been craving for a while now. As long as she does not eat any sour foods, she continues to throw up.In the living room, Vincent grinned after putting down the cellphone.“What’s the next plan, grandpa?” Vans asked as he approached his grandfather.“Let’s get ready bec
At dinner time, Mauro’s family arrived at Vincent’s mansion. They brought foods with them and people who will take care of the catering.“You shouldn’t have bothered bringing food.” Vincent smiled and shook Kobe’s hand.“This is a tradition in our culture,” Kobe replied formally to the old man.There seemed to be a big event inside the mansion when the meals were served. And right after the food was served, the staff also left.Mauro looked around when they entered the dining room. They will eat first before talking about the wedding between him and Diana.“My granddaughter is coming down,” Vincent informed when he noticed Mauro’s gaze, as if he were looking for something.Diana slowly went down the stairs even though she knew Mauro was already there with his family. She doesn’t know, but she doesn’t seem to want to see the young man, and it irritates her even just thinking about him. She was also sleepy, and Meashelle just woke her up earlier.Mauro frowned when he saw Diana. It look
“Mauro, don’t be angry with her anymore. I’ll be the one to adjust so that our friendship doesn’t break.” She clung tightly to Mauro’s arm, and she acted as if she were falling.“No, she should have known by now that she can’t treat you like this if she wants us to have a good relationship in the future!” Mauro said firmly, staring intently at Diana.Diana’s lips pressed firmly together, and she tried to remind herself that she shouldn’t be hurt in the first place. She should not be angry and disappointed with Mauro. Above all, she didn’t need to explain, and she let him just look at her like that. She knows that he won’t believe her, so she shouldn’t show her real emotions. The expression she showed at the two was blank, and her mouth remained closed.Mauro was only irritated when Diana remained silent and he couldn’t read what was on her mind. He led his friend out of the dining room and left Diana.A strange smile appeared on Denise’s lips when she looked back at Diana. She showed
Mauro just waited for his father to return before starting to talk about his marriage with Diana again.“Hija, when do you want to set the wedding and where?” Beth asked Diana.Diana was about to open her mouth, but Mauro preceded her to speak.“A simple wedding would be enough because you are in a hurry. Also, I don’t want many people to know about the wedding.”It was like a needle pierced Diana’s heart when she heard what Mauro said. It’s as if he said that he was ashamed of her as his wife, so he didn’t want people to know her. She would have answered the same, that she wanted a simple wedding ceremony. It’s just more painful to hear it from the mouth of the man she loves.“No way. Diana is my only granddaughter, and I want her to experience a fancy wedding! We have our own money; if it's because of the expenses, I’ll take care of it!” Vincent objected.Kobe sighed, and there will be another misunderstanding. “Señor, money is not a problem here!”“Grandpa, it’s alright. Mauro has
Fate 2Chapter 16: RingThe next day, Mauro’s driver picked Diana up after nine in the morning. She did not ask where the young man was. She’s still with Meashelle because it was what her grandfather wants, which is in her favor.“Why were we brought here?” Meashelle asked while looking up at a large and tall building.“This is where Mauro’s family’s company is,” Diana answered shortly before taking another bite of the mango. When she looked at the driver, his face could no longer be painted, and he was feeling sour from what she was eating.“I thought we were going to a jewelry shop and—”“Sir Mauro had something important to go to, so he’s not here yet. It was Sir Kobe who ordered that Ma’am Diana be brought here first,” the driver’s quick explanation.Meashelle glared at the driver and did not let her finish speaking. But he just smiled at her. She quickly put the other mangoes aside and put them in the bag she was carrying so that Diana could eat them again later.Diana hurriedly
“Sir, try to put the ring on your fiancée’s finger to see if it fits her,” the saleswoman suggested while looking at Denise.Without a word, Mauro took the ring from the saleswoman and approached Diana. He carelessly took her palm to put the ring on her finger.Diana held herself not to moan in pain when Mauro carelessly grabbed her swollen hand. She withdrew her hand from his grasp, but he only tightened it so much that she was already shrugging.Mauro frowned and stared at the girl’s face. She was obviously hurt, and her lips pressed together tightly. When he looked at the back of her palm again, he noticed that it was red.Diana quickly withdrew her hand and moved it away from the young man. “I will measure it myself.” She extended her right palm in front of him.“What happened to your hand?” Instead, he asked the girl and did not give her the ring.“Nothing,” she responded coldly to Mauro and kept her palm open.Mauro sighed, and the woman’s behavior really changed. It’s like she
“Oh, eat this to get rid of your anger.” Meashelle gave a slice of mango to the girl as they walked to the entrance of the store.Diana immediately took a bite of it. She was about to ask for one more slice when she noticed two people looking intently at her. She slowly chewed what was in her mouth and continued to walk slowly.“Are they waiting for us?” Meashelle asked Diana in a whisper.Diana shrugged as she looked straight at Mauro. Well, he couldn’t see her eyes because she was wearing dark shades. He frowned again while looking at her. Her mouth was still full of mango slices, and she didn’t want to finish it right away. She is still enjoying the taste of the mango juice. She anchored on Meashelle’s arm, and when they were close to Mauro and Denise, they hurriedly past them.“Where are you going?” Mauro asked Diana sternly.“Going home.” She answered the young man in a muffled way because her mouth was still full and she didn’t bother to look at him.Mauro quickly chased after t
“Shit, what is it again, Diana?” Mauro asked the girl, yelling. It’s a good thing that there was no car following them because he suddenly stepped on the brake.“Sorry, I saw sister Meashelle’s favorite food,” Diana explained like a scolded child.Meashelle immediately got what the girl wanted to convey. “Ahh, that’s right. The truth is that I went with Señorita Diana to buy the food I really loved.”Mauro frowned and looked around to find the diner. But he sees nothing but street vendors.Meashelle looked at Diana questioningly, and she didn’t know what food she wanted to buy for her.Diana first glanced at Mauro. Seeing that his attention was not on them, she immediately whispered to Meashelle, which made her look flustered.Meashelle was suddenly in trouble because of the girl’s wish. She doesn’t know what to do and must tell Mauro so she doesn’t get suspicious.“Are you alright? Why haven’t you come down to buy?” Mauro asked the assistant.Diana elbowed Meashelle in her side. And
Alexa moaned as Zion’s kiss deepened. She knew it was her husband kissing her even if she didn’t open her eyes because she recognized his lips and scent. Another thing is that she has no other roommate.Alexa felt that she was intoxicated by Zion’s kiss when he deepened his kiss on her. “Zion…”“Sorry, but I can’t hold on anymore!” Zion’s voice was hoarse, and he continued to shower kisses on his wife’s neck.Alexa moaned again, and she felt so hot. She also didn’t want to interrupt what Zion started, so she quickly took off her own clothes. She doesn’t want to torture Zion anymore, and she is also crazily and eagerly wanting to see his abs.“Shit, Alexa, wait!”Alexa frowned because the young man stopped her. It’s almost there; she can touch his hard chest.“Are you sure you’re ready to surrender your womanhood to me?”Instead of answering him, she pushed him down and immediately ran him over. She kissed his lips while her hands were moving around Zion’s body. The softness of his lip
“What?” The saleswoman and manager exclaimed at the same time.“Miss, this is not a good joke. You have bothered us too much, and the things you took are already wrapped.” The manager sounded angry.“Heller, can you wait, and I’m still remembering it? My mind is getting blank because you’re scaring me.” Alexa is disgusted and embarrassed.“Ma’am, she can pay that. Just don’t panic her because that card was just given to her,” Lucy asked the manager.The manager forced a smile and smiled. “Ma’am, just call the person who gave you this card to get the password.”Alexa sighed, and the manager’s suggestion was good. The problem is that she forgot to get Zion’s phone number. She didn’t want to say it, and she might actually be accused of being a fraud, and they might think that the card was stolen. It’s embarrassing, and there is still a queue behind them. Some of the shoppers were already looking at her badly.“Miss, your husband is on his way here.”Alexa gasped when she heard what Lucy
“Brother!” Jenny greeted her brother happily.“How are you?” Zion kissed his sister on the forehead.“I’m fine, brother! I miss you!”Zion clacked. His sister is spoiled by him even though they were often apart. But they don’t lose online communication, of course.“Hi!”Zion looked at the woman who spoke.“Thank you for accepting my invitation to visit here.” Jackie smiled sweetly at Zion.Zion’s brow furrowed, and he didn’t remember the woman inviting him.“Ahm, sir, I’m sorry, and I forgot to tell you that Ms. Jackie also called earlier and invited you to have dinner here,” Jerry explained to the young boss.Jackie glared at Jerry in annoyance, and she was ashamed of herself. She still thought that the young man already knew about her invitation to him. Her mother even cooked a special meal for the guest. She could not contact Zion directly. Even her friend doesn’t want to give her brother’s personal number. That’s one thing she can’t break between her and her brother.“Brother, Jac
“Let’s go."Alexa blinked when she heard Zion’s voice. He turned his back and walked towards the door. She still looks like she’s floating because of Zion’s kiss. She quickly closed her mouth before swallowing her own saliva. It was as if she was hung over and hungry, so she ran her tongue over her own lips. And savored the taste of Zion's kiss on her. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she blinks.Zion turned to the girl when he opened the door. He clacked in his mind because her face showed signs of hanging on to the kiss. It’s really easy to guess what she’s thinking.Alexa quickly stood up and approached Zion. “Aren’t we going to spend the night here?” She looked up like a child and smiled at the young man.Zion put his index finger to the girl’s forehead and gently pushed it. “You can dream about that when you are sure of your feelings for me.”Alexa was left speechless, as if her husband had read her mind again. If they will sleep there, they have to share the same ro
“Dad, why don’t you invite that man’s family so we can meet and find out what his family background is?” Joan suggested to her father.“Sorry, but I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want my family to be involved in this just to prove the status of my life. I married Alexa, not for you. If you can’t accept me as part of your family, that’s not my problem anymore. I came here to formally inform you that we are married and not to show off!”Alexa stared dumbfounded at Zion. It was very cool and very brave to speak in front of her family. When she looked at her aunt and cousin, they were also stunned. Her grandfather looked suddenly worried because her husband was also angry since his personality was being judged.“Hijo, it’s not like that. Be patient with my daughter and her daughter.”“You don’t need to explain, sir, and everything is clear to me now. The state in a person’s life is the only basis for you to be your family member,” Zion’s replied coldly.The old man was embarrassed, and Zion
“Good, and here you are.” It was obvious in Simon’s voice that he was angry.“Grandpa, whatever Liza reported to you is their fault because they are bullies,” she immediately explained to her grandfather.“What are you talking about, Alexa? Since when was it my daughter’s fault that you had a husband as poor as you?” Joan asked her niece mockingly.Alexa’s eyes widened slightly before scratching her head. Therefore, her cousin reported to her grandfather otherwise. But as she and Zion agreed for, her grandfather must not know that her husband is poor until the old man has given her her inheritance.“Alexa, don’t deny and don’t let that man pretend anymore just to trick Grandpa and get your inheritance.” A teasing smile appeared on Liza’s lips.“Oh, poor Liza, I really feel sorry for you. I know that you and your ugly boyfriend were embarrassed so much earlier in the restaurant; that is why you are defaming me to Grandpa now.” Alexa made the aura on her face even sadder.“What do you m
“Sir, why?” The supervisor asked in shock, and the manager suddenly pointed at her.“Stupid! Don’t you know who you are facing at?” The manager whined at the supervisor and almost poked her eyes with his index finger.Liza was surprised by the manager’s actions. She quickly held on to her boyfriend’s arm, and she might also be angered by the manager.“Sir? Mr. Dave knows them to be poor, and they offended Mr. Dave and his girlfriend, so they let them pay for the food.” The supervisor explained excitedly.Roxas clenched his fist and stopped himself from slapping the supervisor. “I don’t care who you’re talking about! But what you did to our VIP visitor—I can’t miss that!”.The supervisor hesitated and looked almost pale at Alexa and her male companion. “VIP?” Almost only herself could hear her.Even Alexa was surprised by what the manager said. She never thought that her husband’s friend would be so rich. If only Jerry was next to her, she would have hugged him and thanked him. The smi
“Sir, I know those people, and they live in a dumpster. Get them out of here, and it might smell like garbage inside when you let them in.” Liza pointed at Alexa and her companions.“If you don’t let us in, I’ll make sure you’ll get fire!” Zion angrily threatened the security guard.The security guard didn’t know what to do.“Sir, being a bully is bad. I’ll post it on social media, and I’ll give your service here a low rating if you don’t let us in!” Alexa also threatened the security guard.“What’s going on here?”The security guard quickly approached the newly arrived supervisor of the restaurant. “Ma’am, I’m sorry for the trouble. It looks like they can’t afford to pay for the food here, so I blocked them.” The security guard was shaking as he was explaining.The supervisor looks scrutinizingly at the people the security guard is referring to. When he recognized one of those there, he quickly approached him. “Mr. Dave, I’m sorry for the behavior of our security guard. Are you with
Alexa had a beautiful smile while looking at the ring finger where the wedding ring was already worn. Their civil wedding is done, and she is very amazed by her ring. Because it looks real.“Zion, thank you very much for marrying my daughter. I know that you only married each other for personal reasons. But I hope that you will also fall for each other and spend a lifetime together.” Lourdes clasped the palms of the two.“Thank you, Mother.” Zion bowed slightly to show respect to the lady.Alexa smiles excitedly, and Zion calls her mother, mom. She wanted to ask where his parents were, but she couldn’t. One of their agreements is not to talk about their personal lives, especially ask about each other’s lives. She agreed with his conditions because they would not live together.“I have a house for rent near the school Alexa attends. You can move there, and the surroundings will be better.”“Oh, son, don’t worry about me anymore. It’s better that you two would go solo and don’t have you
