“We’ve been calling her for a while, but she’s not answering. I’ve also asked my staff to look for her around, but she’s not there,” said Stella while looking at Mauro.

Mauro clenched his palm and pressed his lips tightly together. He couldn’t blame Diana if she sulked at him. “I’ll find her.” It was the only word that came out of his mouth since his mind was now confused.

Kobe sighed when his son left and ran out of the hospital. He also called his staff to help find his daughter-in-law.

Mauro went around the hospital to look for Diana. He knew that his wife would not stay away because of his grandfather’s condition. But he has been to every corner of the hospital, but he still can’t see her. He briefly returned to where Stella Charles and Diana might have returned there. But he was again upset, finding out she wasn’t there yet.

“I don’t think she’s here at the hospital,” said Charles.

“Do you think you can find her any more? You’re just wasting your time!”

    Mauro looked up as he remembered the past. Because of Diana’s mean behavior before, he believed that all the men who she liked had slept with her. Diana was the first to really catch his attention. He only turned to Stella since Diana was tripping her. Diana’s behavior was the opposite of Stella’s, so he turned his feelings to Stella instead of pursuing Diana.Mauro weakly sat on the bed and seemed to see his wife crying there. “How many years?” He talks to his wife even though she is not there. He asked himself how many years she cared for him in her heart.A bitter smile appeared on his lips as the pain in his heart drew. It pains him to think that Diana went through her family’s cruelty because of him. She saved him that night even though the girl knew what could happen to her at the hands of her own relative.“I’m scared; they will hurt me again.” Mauro remembered what Diana had said before, after she had injected Elizabeth with the medicine.His palms clenched again, and Mauro lo

    Mauro didn’t bother to park his car properly in front of their house. After coming down, he rushed inside and immediately found Stella and Charles with his parents there. He was nervous to see her crying, and so was her mother.“It’s good, and you’ve come—” Kobe didn’t finish speaking, and his son suddenly turned around.“I’ll just go to my wife’s room.” Mauro hurried up the stairs.Kobe sighed. His son’s face shows the extreme fear of not seeing his wife. This is what he was telling his son before: to give himself time to focus on his wife’s feelings. He turned to his wife and stood up. “I’ll go after your son first.”Beth nodded sadly. From what she can see in her son’s appearance, he seems to have realized his true feelings for his wife. However, it seems too late for his realization.When Mauro opened his wife’s room, it was as if a cold hand caressed his heart. It was as if a large part of his heart had separated from him. He immediately looked around and called his wife’s name.

    “She gave up everything and walked away,” Stella cried out.“I think she intended to anger Vincent by transferring her share to Mauro. She planned everything,” said Charles.Mauro seemed to be deafened by what he heard. He knows nothing about what happened in the company. If only he could have answered her call, but canceling the call is just proof that he was ignoring her. It was just proof that she meant nothing to him. Mauro bowed his head, and his heart was silently crying.“I have collected the footage from the surveillance camera in the conference room. Maybe we can get a clue as to why Diana chose to stay away there.”Mauro was suddenly relieved and immediately approached Stella, who took the footage. It couldn’t let it fall into Vans’s hands either, and he was worried about what he would do to Diana when he found his sister.They all returned to the living room, and they intended to look at the CCTV footage installed inside the office and where the scene happened.Mauro clench

    Mauro was restless while waiting for a call from one of his staff that he ordered to find Diana.“Tsk, can you just sit down?” Kobe was irritated with his son. He is the one who is dizzy because, after sitting down, he will immediately stand up and then walk back and forth in front of them.Mauro didn’t seem to hear anything and continued walking while holding his right hand on his neck. And his other hand is holding a cell phone and looking at it from time to time. “What the fuck?” He exclaimed when suddenly a cushion flew out, but he just dodged to avoid it.“I’ve been reprimanding you for a while, but you seem deaf,” Kobe sneered at his son.Mauro sighed before looking at Stella. “Did you think of somewhere Diana could go to or someone else she could go with?” He asked his friend.“Right!”Everyone looked at Kobe in shock because of his sudden shout.“Why did I just think of it now?” Kobe asked interrogatively.“Which one, Dad?” Mauro asked impatiently, then hurried to his father.

    “Aunty, can I borrow your cell phone? I just want to call my mom.”Beth didn’t ask any more questions to Denise, and she just let the woman borrow her phone. She also saw that her cell phone was out of charge. They are obliged to take care of her now because the girl’s parents are in another country.“I’m just going to use the bathroom.” Beth said goodbye and left the girl holding her cell phone.Denise nodded at the lady with a smile. Her departure is in her favor. She immediately dialed Mauro’s number instead of her parents.Mauro stopped walking when he saw who the caller was. He immediately answered the call and hoped that she had good news. “Yes, Mom?”“Mauro, it’s me.”Mauro was stunned when he heard his friend’s voice. He wasn’t expecting her to call him.“I borrowed a cell phone from your mom because my phone has no charge. How are you? I heard that Diana is missing. How true?” The concern in Denise’s voice was ovbious.“I’m okay; I’m sorry if I can’t visit you there anymore.”

    When Stella and Charles arrived at her cousin’s house, a servant greeted them.“Ma’am, I’m sorry, but Sir Vans called, and we are forbidden to let anyone in or receive visitors.” The assistant apologizes.“I would like to talk to Diana,” Stella said. She will take risks, and Diana might go back there.“I’m sorry, ma’am, but Señorita Diana hasn’t been coming home since she got married.”Stella sighed and looked at the house from the open gate.“If Diana wasn’t there, then can we talk to Meashelle?” It was Charles who spoke.“Huh?” The servant looked deaf and surprised.“We were just going to ask her something.” Charles smiled at the assistant.“I’m sorry, but on the day of Ma’am Diana’s wedding, Meashelle had also asked permission to leave here.”Mauro and Stella looked at each other. The assistant also seemed to be in a hurry and was afraid to face them for a long time.“I’m sorry, ma’am, sir, but if you don’t need anything else, I’ll close the gate,” the assistant said politely.“Wai

    Mauro quickly traveled with his father in the car after getting the location given by the taxi driver. Charles was also able to follow them, and his investigating staff was already there first.Charles and Mauro arrived at the bus terminal almost at the same time. The two men immediately approached Mauro when they saw him.“Sir, we have asked if they have seen the woman you are looking for. But there is no record of them having this name.”“That’s bullshit; how come there isn’t?” Mauro growled angrily at the man.“We looked at the surveillance camera and saw her take a taxi again.”Mauro tugged at his own hair in frustration. He thought that he would be able to determine the location that his wife went to today.“Son, we can find her too.” Kobe tapped his son on the shoulder.“I’ll go ahead and leave my staff with you to help search for Diana. I have to go home and maybe what my wife is doing and get tired.” Charles said goodbye to the two.“Thank you; I’ll call you when I need more h

    “Ma’am, what are we going to do now that we can’t follow them?” The man asked Denise.“Just stand by there first, and I’ll take care of it so you can follow them again.” Denise spoke calmly to her staff.After hanging up, Denise dialed the number again with a smile. She called her friend to say hello.Mauro was cursing when his car stopped into a dangerous area. His engine smoked and needed water. Being so busy thinking about his wife, he also lost his mind to gas up the car. Fortunately, the surroundings are quite bright.“Sir, get in my car first, and my companion will be here,” Jules suggested. They cannot neglect the young man, and it is their responsibility.Without saying a word, Mauro got into Jules’ car. They had to find a gas station and a mechanic to check on his car.“Sir, your phone is ringing.” Jules commented and noticed that the young man did not answer.Mauro seemed to realize that he looked at the cellphone that was placed on the dashboard.

    Ben’s jaws clenched as he darted a furious look at Jackie. He could not imagine that Zion was the husband of the woman he behaved badly at. If he only knew from the beginning, he would not have planned to throw worse things against that woman again.The four women and four male friends of Dave quickly gathered on the other side when they saw Zion.Zion never became furious until this incident happened. And there is only one person he had to blame—none other than the person who invited Liza. He approached the man. And knock him down. “You son of a bitch! Why don’t you face me now? Show me your courage, you jerk!”Ben quickly wiped the blood on his lip from the man’s strong blow. “Sir, sorry! I didn’t know you were her husband. Please forgive me, and I promise that it will never happen again!”Instead of answering, Zion kicked the man in the stomach. “Motherfucker, who plans all this against my wife?”Jackie looked pale out of fear and hid herself behind their other companions.

    “Sir, this way.” A man, who was obviously waiting for them to arrive, greeted them.Zion almost ran into the VIP room where, reportedly, there was a commotion. They were following the manager, and he was stunned in his stance when he saw what the room looked like. He immediately saw his wife, who seemed to have struggled with the wine bottle against a man.“Sir, this woman is the one who made this mess. She wants to break all the drinks here, and I’m stopping her,” Ben explained to the manager.Alexa still didn’t want to let go of the wine bottle even though she knew someone could save her. “Don’t believe him, sir. They are addicts, and they want to exploit me!”Right at that moment, Zion realized what happened to his wife. He angrily pushed the manager out of the door, and he entered.Alexa’s eyes widened when she saw her husband. She quickly let go of the bottle and raised her hands as if surrendering. “Babe, I’m not guilty! They force me to drink!”Jackie stared at Zion when she sa

    From Alexa’s sharp gaze to Jackie, she slowly got up and smiled at Ben. “You really want me to drink that, yeah?”Suddenly, the smile on Jackie’s lips was slowly vanishing. She was not pleased by Alexa’s naughtiness in talking to Ben. But she brushes her thoughts away and waits.The aura of Ben’s face cleared, and he smiled. “I thought you were not easy to talk to. Don’t worry, and I’ll make sure you don’t regret going to this party.” A malicious smile formed on the man’s lips.Alexa smiled and took the glass with wine in it from the man’s hand. The man intentionally touched her finger, but she just let him.Jackie smiled again when Alexa turned around to face her as she drank the wine. She almost consumed the contents of the glass, which satisfied her. Everyone applauded, and the girls cheered. She grinned and was about to applaud at Alexa as well, but she didn’t expect what she did next.“Holy crap!” Men exclaimed in chorus.“Ewww!” The women disgustedly exclaimed too, looking unbel

    “What is that woman doing here?” Liza asked her cousin.“Why are you asking me? I don’t know the celebrant either. Ask your boyfriend instead,” she replied to Liza’s question as she remained staring at Jackie.Liza didn’t entertain her cousin’s philosophical response. They need to sit between the two men.“Hi, what’s your name?” The man asked Alexa.Alexa ignored the man next to her. If you are looking at them, they seem like partners, so do Liza and the man next to her. When she glanced at Jackie, she smiled at her beautifully. She started to feel something fishy. And because she was busy looking at Jackie, she didn’t notice her cousin now drinking alcohol.“Hey, here’s your drink.” Ben reached for a wine glass to hand to Alexa.“Thanks, but I don’t drink.” Alexa refused the man’s offer.“Oh, come on, no one has refused my offer. It’s your first time in this place, so you can’t refuse me,” Ben insisted.Alexa’s ears perked up after hearing what the man said, especially when everyone

    Zion’s forehead crumpled when his cellphone rang again. The tone indicated that there was a new text message. He looked at his wristwatch. It’s still early, and he intended to finish reading and signing the documents that were now piled up while his wife was busy at the party. He was planning to go on vacation with Alexa, so he has to finish his office work as soon as possible. When his cellphone rang again, he looked at it.“Babe, I miss you!” He smiled after reading Alexa’s first message. The next one was ‘I love yous,’ so he smiled even more. But when he received another new message, a smile on his lips abruptly vanished.She giggled when she read Zion’s reply. “Stop being naughty, baby. Reduce your lipstick.”Alexa faced the mirror after reading her husband’s message. She sent him a picture of herself while pouting, and her husband only noticed her lipstick. Her lips were normally red even without lipstick, but now they look seductive.Zion quickly called his wife through video ca

    When Alexa read what everyone had in mind while they were looking at her and Liza flabbergastedly, she wanted to laugh. Normally, they will react like that—because after the internship, they became friends. And since their classmates compare them to dogs and cats, it was a shocking revelation!“Huh! Why wonder? Family relationships are stronger than all others,” said Loida.“Alexa is richer than she is, so she friended her,” Dina agreed.“Come on, don’t mind them.” Liza stopped Alexa when she tried to rush the woman. It was just ridiculous. Her situation and Alexa’s reversed: the one who used to be bullied and oppressed now looks like her protector.“You’re right, I’m richer, so you should shut your mouth, and I might have put coins in it!” Alexa even widened her eyes at Dina, who immediately calmed down.Liza had just shaken her head over her cousin’s straightforwardness. To the ears of people with secret anger and envy toward Alexa, she sounded boastful. But since her mindset has ch

    Alexa’s way of walking towards Liza and her companion is like a bull that will rush to the enemy. When Liza saw her, she seemed to see a ghost and immediately let go of embracing Dave.“Liza, why are you still talking to that guy? Don’t tell me you are going to let that jerk fool you again,” Alexa said angrily to her cousin.“Alexa, it’s just…” Liza didn’t know how to explain to her cousin in a way that she would not be angry.“Alexa, can’t you still move on from me, and you don’t want me to be with your cousin?” Dave asked the woman sadly.Alexa looked at the man disgustedly and acted as if she was going to vomit. “Dave, it looks like the wind in your head is growing. Have you ever had a psychiatrist check up on you?”Even if he felt so annoyed, the expression on Dave’s face remained sad. He looks at his girlfriend pityingly.Liza quickly approached her cousin and pleaded with her. “Alexa, he apologized to me and wanted to make it up to me.”“Have you forgiven him that easily after d

    “You know what, it’s just a girl’s advice. Don’t force yourself on a man who doesn’t love you. Even if you attract him, you can only get his body and cum. Your relationship will not be as perfect as you could have dreamed of, especially when it’s out of horniness.Jackie’s cheeks were red with embarrassment and anger. She was embarrassed even though Alexa didn’t know what she had done last night and who was with her.“Maybe it’s clear to you that Zion is only mine, right? So when you try to rob him, I don’t just do what I’ve done to you. I’m selfish when it comes to my loved one. Take everything and my money, but not Zion.” Alexa even widened her eyes to threaten Jackie.“Stay away from me!”Alexa laughed; the woman was shooing her away, but she was also the one who was stepping closer to her. Threatening the woman worked effectively. Such dialogues are really from the dramas she watches; she remembers them, and she has used them now. She was proud as she turned away from Jackie and w

    Dave smiled and approached Jackie, offering his hand for a handshake. “Do I still need to introduce myself to you?”Jackie smiled and accepted the young man’s handshake. When he squeezed her palm, a strange smile on her lips slid down.“I’ll give you a ride, and let’s not talk here.” Dave never let go of the girl’s palm.Jackie followed the young man. She didn’t bring her car since she was with Jenny earlier. She never asked where he was going to take her. She knew him, and she knew he was Liza’s former boyfriend. And because she was also annoyed with that woman, she thought she would include her in her revenge.Dave brought Jackie to a nightclub. While planning, they drank wine until they were both drunk.Jackie didn’t know where Dave had brought her. All she could know was that they were both naked and he was lying over her. She wanted to push him, but the young man was stronger than her. The drunkenness she felt lessened because she had no plans to use her body. Again, she pushed h
