“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. They are still on the road
“How is your investigation going? Have you found which barangay my wife went to?” Mauro asked Jules impatiently.Yesterday, they arrived in a town in Samar and checked in at the hotel. They learned that his wife had gone to that town from the port of the ship. They can no longer trace the exact location of his wife because there is no surveillance camera there anymore. They also talked to the driver of the car she was riding in, but it could not remember the exact barangay where each of his passengers dropped off.“Sir, my companion was in a place, and there was a rumor that someone had arrived there, and the men were making a fuss.”Mauro stood up violently from his seat, and his nostrils almost got bigger. “Take me there, right now!” He ordered.Jules scratched his head even though it didn’t itch. He will bring Mauro to that place, but he was even leading him.During the trip, the aura of Mauro’s face was already dark. Even though he has not confirmed that his wife is in that barang
Diana woke up because of the noise outside. When he looked out the window, the sun had set. She slept longer again because of her pregnancy. She has been sleepy ever since she got pregnant. But she can’t just be like this; she and Meashelle must have a source of income while she hasn’t given birth yet.“Diana, there’s your suitor again,” Meashelle called her friend.Diana shook her head. It looks like Ronald even brought a companion, and someone was playing the guitar while he was singing. She didn’t brush her hair and just pinned it up before getting off the bed and leaving the room.“Sir, control yourself first.” Jules held Mauro tightly by the arm.“How can I calm down if I see what that man is doing in front of my wife’s house?” Mauro whined as he pointed at the five men.“Sir, Loid is coming with the flower. It’s better that you watch what your rival does first so that you can get an idea of what you should do to make your wife happy later,” Jules’ advice.Mauro is still staring
“Sir, are you ready?” Jules asked Mauro as they approached Diana’s house.Mauro looked at the people there who had also turned around and were looking forward to what he would do. He is not used to this, but he has to do it for his wife. “Are you sure that what you thought of is going to work?”An hesitant smile formed on Jules’ lips before nodding. Because the reason why they will serenading now is a different kind of case.Diana had just sat down when they heard the noise outside the house again. They hear people’s voices as if they are excited. She just ignored that and faced Ronald.“Sorry if I’m stubborn.” Ronald immediately apologized to the girl.“Ronald, thank you for your love if that’s how you feel about me. But I’m sorry, I walked away from the first man I loved not to find someone else to love. The wound in my heart is still not healed, so turn your feelings to someone else.”“I’m willing to wait, and I just fell in love like this, so I won’t give up on you,” Ronald refuse
Meashelle chases away nosy neighbors with Ronald’s help. They followed in fear of the young man because he was the barangay captain’s son. When the men and women gossipers were gone, she looked at Mauro. He looked at Ronald so badly that she immediately intervened between them.“I am Diana’s husband, so I expect you to stop courting her.” There is a threat that Mauro talks to the man who is courting his wife.“Husband? All I know is that you are separated and divorced.” Ronald looked teasingly at the one claiming Diana.“You!”“Sir, calm down, and we are not in our own town.” Jules quickly pulled Mauro away before he could punch the man whom his rival to his wife.“Ronald, I’m sorry, but can you leave us for now?” Meashelle also weaned the young man.“Tell your friend not to become a fool again of that guy and that he will only hurt her again.”Jules and Loid grabbed Mauro’s arms again before he could approach his male competitor.Mauro gave the man a sharp look. If no one really stop
“Let him go, sister!” Diana sobbed because of the extreme annoyance she felt.“Sir, it’s enough. Don’t force yourself on her first, and maybe she’ll bleed because of too much anger,” Jules advised the young man in a whisper.Mauro clenched his fist and was even more hurt when he saw that his wife was crying because of him. He raised both hands as if surrendering. “Alright, I’m going to put on my shirt; stop crying anymore. I’m just in the car, and I’ll watch over you all night. I’m not leaving until you forgive me.”Diana rolled her eyes at the man, then glared at him even though tears continued to flow from her eyes. When she saw that he was wearing wet clothes, she hurried back inside the house.Meashelle quickly followed her friend inside the house and was still worried. “Are you alright?”“I’m sorry, he’s really ugly. I don’t know why I fell in love with that monkey. I wish my baby wouldn’t inherit his ugliness!”Meashelle just coughed to stop herself from laughing. The woman look
“Diana, don’t you feel sorry for your husband?” Meashelle asked while secretly peering at the three standing outside the car. They eat there standing.“Because they can eat inside the car. Another thing is that I will lose my appetite when I am in front of him,” Diana responded, pouting.Her heart is also softening for Mauro. Maybe tomorrow the annoyance she feels for him will subside. Her blood really boils when she remembers the last scene she saw in the hospital.“Maybe it’s okay with you if I let them sleep in the other house?” She was referring to their old house, which is also next to theirs.“Is there a good place to sleep there, and is the interior clean?” Somehow, she still cares about Mauro’s health.”Meashelle nodded with a smile. “I already cleaned it when we arrived, and you might want to consider moving there.”Diana let Meashelle go out after they ate. She sent the other food to the neighborhood because there was too much. She doesn’t want to eat leftovers or just rehea
While in the car, Diana called her cousin with her hands shaking. It’s a good thing that Meashelle was carrying her cellphone earlier. She now has no one to be close to and trust but Stella.Charles woke up to the noise of his wife’s cellphone. He had no intention of answering it because it was an unknown number, but it didn’t stop ringing. When he remembered that it was his wife’s private phone, he quickly answered the call, and Stella might wake up.“Stella, help us!”Charles’ spirit finally woke up when he recognized Diana’s voice and was crying. “Diana? What’s wrong?”“Charles, someone wants to kill Mauro, and we’re going to the hospital now!”Charles didn’t ask any more questions because the car from the other line was honking loudly. He just asked for the location so he could go to them even at this time of the night.Stella woke up from her deep sleep when she heard her husband talking on the cellphone. “Who called?”“Love, call your pilot right now, and I have to go to Samar.”
“Diana, you know Mauro hasn’t fully recovered yet.” Denise gently questioned Diana when she caught her sitting on the man’s lap.“Why are you preaching my wife for what she does?” Mauro asked his friend irritatedly. He notices that every time she sees Diana, she criticizes her. If he hasn't woken up to his true feelings for his wife, he will think Denise was concerned for him.Denise was momentarily stunned and embarrassed by her friend’s question. “Mauro, I’m just worried about your health. I know you can’t remember anything, and your whole concern is about her pregnancy. But don’t forget yourself.”“Even if I don’t remember anything, I know what I’m doing, Denise. I’ve only lost my memory and not my heart. Whatever you see, I’m the one who wants it.”“I’m sorry, I thought—”“From now on, I don’t want you to interrogate my wife, especially in front of me. If you don’t like my wife, don’t visit me anymore.”Denise’s teeth gritted while her mouth was closed. She also wanted to cry and
After the kiss, it was as if Mauro didn’t care about what happened or if it was normal. Diana was also unable to be angry with the man because she was his wife. Another thing is that she also likes the new Mauro now. It makes her feel that she is important in his life and that he loves her.A day passed, and Diana was discharged. Mauro didn’t want to be left in the hospital, so he was allowed to leave. Before going home with Mauro, she begged him to let her visit her grandfather, who is still confined to the hospital.“I’ll go with your wife,” Charles stopped Mauro, who struggled to accompany his wife.“But—”“My brother is still mad at me, so it’s not good for him to see you now. Also, your body is still weak,” said Diana to her husband.“Leave your wife alone to face her own family. Don’t worry, our man has taken care of her.”Mauro nodded to his father and let his wife go. But he didn’t leave and waited in the waiting area because he was still in a wheelchair.Diana burst into tear
Stella rushed into the room where her cousin was when she found out that Denise was also there. When she entered, she immediately noticed the woman, and she was holding an apple.“Stella!” Diana stood up quickly when she saw her cousin.“Hey, easy!” Mauro told off at his wife because she almost ran when she met Stella.Stella smiled and hugged her cousin. “How are you? Don’t run away without saying goodbye to me again, okay?”Diana laughed at what her cousin said. She would like to ask her when a person who is going to run away says goodbye.“Don’t laugh at me!” Stella reprimanded her cousin annoyingly and approached her cousin to whisper. “Why do you let her be the one to take care of Mauro?”Diana smiled and felt that her cousin didn’t like Denise. She thought she was the only one who felt that way. “Calm down; I didn’t become a villain in your life just to be oppressed in my own chapter now.”Stella also smiled and was happy because her cousin was getting back to normal. When she w
“Sweetheart, don’t be too harsh, and maybe our baby will bite you when it comes out.” Charles jokingly scolded his wife.Stella just glared at her husband, and he wanted her to go home, but she didn’t want to. She will wait for her cousin to wake up and talk to her.Denise also glared at Stella and faced the room. She peeked inside again through the small ajar in the door because it was not closed.Beth approached her son and sadly held him in the palm of his hand. “Son, don’t you remember us too?”“I’m sorry, my head hurts when I try to remember.” Mauro is lying, and he knows his wife is awake.“Let’s not force him; the important thing is that he and his wife are both safe.” Kobe consoles his wife, and it hurts to think that their own child will not remember them.“I don’t remember anything, but I don’t want my wife to be separated from me since she is pregnant.”“You thought right, and that’s what I want to happen. Apart from the fact that she’s pregnant, she can’t be returned to he
When Mauro opened his eyes, he immediately saw Denise. He looks for Charles and worries for his wife.“Mauro, I am your best friend. Don’t you remember me?” Denise asked the man in tears and held him by the hand.Mauro cursed in his mind and almost forgot that he was only pretending now. He closed his eyes and pretended that he was feeling in pain.“Denise, don’t force yourself on him to remember you because it won’t help.”Denise was embarrassed by what Charles said. She just pretended not to hear anything and didn’t let go of Mauro’s palm.Mauro was forced to open his eyes again and look meaningfully at Charles.“She is your friend and assistant as well at the company,” Charles introduces Denise.“Isn’t there medicine to bring back his memory immediately?” Kobe asked the doctor who was there.Mauro gave his father a blank look. Charles also introduced his father to him as part of his pretending.“I don’t think his amnesia is that severe. And it will help him to live in a familiar pl
Denise came to Mauro’s parents in tears. “Did I hear right? Mauro has amnesia?”Beth nodded sadly at the girl. “We haven’t talked to him until now because he was taken straight to the operating room.”“How about, Diana, Aunty? What happened to her?” Denise’s face still shows a lot of worry, but inside her, she was furious. She should have been in the operating room and not Mauro.“She only passed out because she has a phobia of air travel, but she will be fine soon.” It was Charles who answered the woman.“She must have been scared by what happened to Mauro. I hope that whoever the animal that did this to my friend is caught!” Denise clenched her fist and felt that Charles was watching her intently.“There are no suspects at the moment, so everyone close to Mauro can be suspected.”“What? Why did you say that someone close to Mauro might be responsible for the fire that happened?” Denise asked Charles in disbelief.“Because they were immediately followed in the province.”“Couldn’t Di
Denise worriedly called Mauro but could not reach him. She is restless and doesn’t know what is really going on. She quickly left the hospital, but she met Mauro’s parents outside.“Aunty, uncle, why are you still here? And what about Mauro? How is he?” Denise questions one after the other.“They are coming in a helicopter, and we are waiting for them,” Kobe answered, and his wife continued to cry. He did not even know what really happened and that his son had a wound.Denise bit the inside of her mouth and became even more worried. “He probably got a wound because he tried to save Diana.” He was talking to herself.“But why is there no news about Diana? Is her body with Mauro when they come home?” Denise asked herself.“Diana, what’s wrong?” Charles asked the woman, noticing that she seemed overwhelmed.Mauro, who was only pretending to be asleep earlier, opened his eyes wide. It was obvious that his wife was pale and her grip on the seat was tight.“Shit, I forgot that Diana has a p
Charles waited for the doctor to finish examining Mauro. When he came out with the nurse, he closed the door before approaching Mauro.“I heard what you said earlier.”“I thought you had lost your memory.” Charles relaxed before sitting in the chair next to the hospital bed.“Diana won’t follow you if I don’t pretend,” Mauro groaned, and the wound on his head throbbed when he moved.Charles sighed and helped his friend to lean properly against the headboard. “But I think it’s a good idea to pretend you have amnesia.”Mauro frowned and tried to read the contents of Charles’ mind.“Look, we don’t know who wants your wife to disappear from this world. I’m sure she’s the target of the person who did this to you,” Charles explained.Mauro clenched his fist and couldn’t bear to think that without him, his wife would have died in the fire. “I will never forgive whoever did this!”“The culprit has no intention of leaving the people alive inside the house where you were in because tear gas was
