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.”
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
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
Stella smiled when she saw her son’s arrival, carrying his sleeping wife. Charles did the same for her when she was pregnant with Jenny. She was glad that Zion inherited his father’s love even when he was arrogant.“Where’s Dad, Mom?” Zion asked softly as he kissed his mother’s cheek.“He’s sleeping, and it looks like your wife infected him.”“Sorry, Mom, I’ll take my wife to our room first.”Stella smiled as she nodded. Her daughter-in-law is still asleep.As soon as he put his wife down on the bed, she immediately rolled over to the other side of the bed. He even chased after her because he was afraid she would fall. She lay on her stomach and just stopped spinning. He immediately took the large pillow and placed it on her side so that she would not roll. He hurried to find underwear and wore it to his wife so that she could not remember later when she woke up that he had torn her favorite underwear.During dinner, he woke up his wife to eat forcefully. But she was furious with him
Zion couldn’t answer his mom, who was still on the other line, because his wife kissed him like she was hungry. He was trying to respond to her kiss, but she harshly released his lips. That was fucking crazy! He was too excited!“Zion, you go home early, and your wife might be hungry again,” Stella reminded her son again as she was busy looking inside the refrigerator for what she could cook.“Yes, Mom.” Zion seems forced to agree to his mother. “I have to go, Mom; I still have something to finish,” Zion added. He grabbed his wife by the neck and kissed her on the lips.Stella’s forehead wrinkled. She turned the cellphone away from sticking it to her ear. She stared at the cellphone, as if she could see her son there. The call was off, so she couldn't even ask her son why he seemed to be breathing hard. She brushed the thoughts away. Maybe she is just overthinking.When Zion put his cellphone down, his lips were slightly parted when he saw his wife only wearing a bra and underwear. He
Zion sighed when her parents were no longer around. He suddenly felt tired. He sat on the edge of the sofa where his wife was sleeping. Then, he slowly lifted his wife’s head to put it on his thighs. It was still fast asleep, and it didn’t even move from what he did. He smiled as her lips moved and slightly sharpened. He restrained himself from kissing her lips as if tempting him. He just closed his eyes and rested himself first.Alexa woke up as if it were humid around her. She was about to get up when she noticed that she was lying on someone’s thigh. She immediately lifted her gaze, and her eyes met her husband’s handsomeness. It looks like he just slept.She slowly got up and brought her gaze around. She searched for her parents-in-law but couldn’t find anyone else there. They seem to have left her. She held her cheek when something dripped there. “Why am I crying?” she wondered.Alexa pursed her lips and quickly wiped away her tears. But she was really crying, and she was feeling
“Zion…” Rita paused to approach the man when she met his sharp gaze. “I’m really sorry!”“Because of what you did, other employees almost lost their jobs.” Every word Zion uttered was cold and emphasized.Rita bowed her head. She couldn’t speak much in front of everyone because she was so shy. “I just love you so much that I did that.”Instead of feeling pity, Zion was just getting anxious with the girl. She was carrying her stuff and is ready to leave. “It’s not my fault that you are still hoping that I will love you back. Many of them also like you if you only open your heart and mind and give them a chance to enter your heart.”Rita sighed. She knew the man could not understand her because he had never experienced love for someone who could not return the love. Zion was right; it’s not his fault that she expected too much from him. She should be blaming herself for being crazily in love with Zion.“My wife didn’t do anything awful against you, and she has not kidnapped me from you,
Alexa sighed. She doesn’t want them to think she was unfair. And she won because her parents-in-law and her husband were there. “Even if you haven’t slipped in confessing, I can prove that you have a worse attitude and you insulted my personality earlier.” She smiled and pulled out her cellphone. Everyone was surprised. And it seemed like a threat to them.Jen’s knees suddenly weakened when Alexa played the audio recorder. She could hear her voice while she was insulting the woman.Rita was embarrassed and bowed her head as her voice echoed in the audio. She even ordered the guard not to let the woman enter again. She could feel Zion’s sharp gaze on her, and she knew that the man was furious at her now. At this time, she prefers to be like a bubble.“Who called my daughter-in-law my husband’s mistress?” Stella’s eyes flickered as she looked at everyone there. She has never been scandalous, especially in her company, but after hearing the audio record, her horn really came out. She wan
“No need! I know you’re ashamed of me now because I look ridiculous here and am just making up a story to be embarrassed.” She looked up at Zion sharply and wanted to scratch him in the face because she was so annoyed.Zion clenched his fist, holding his emotion. He was more hurt by how his wife is acting now than by accusing him. He’d like to approach her again, but she shook him away.“Do you believe in that woman who claimed you to be her fiancé?” She pointed to Rita. She was shaking out her annoyance.“Hija, calm down. That’s—” Stella paused when the woman sobbed. She suddenly hugged Charles.“Dad, you believe me, right?” She sounds pathetic, but there is this mixture of emotion inside her, which she couldn’t understand.Charles glanced at the woman’s face pityingly. She looked like a bullied kid. “Yes, hija. Don’t cry anymore. Don’t worry, and I’ll get rid of the liars!”Jen got pale and scared that when the chairman had proven she was one among those lying, she would surely get
Everyone was quiet again when they saw the chairman’s wife, and she was obviously furious. They are no longer wondering or surprised why they see that aura in the lady’s face. It is also right that the CEO has arrived and gotten closer to his mother.Rita quickly moved. She almost ran to Zion before greeting the lady. “Zion, have you been here in a while now?”Zion was unable to avoid his arm when Rita clung to it. When he looked at his mother, she was obviously furious, and she seemed to know that his wife was upset with him.Rita smiled even though the man didn’t answer her. She turned her gaze to the lady. “Aunt, is there a problem?”Stella tried to smile at the woman. She was about to answer when she saw her daughter-in-law, along with her husband, coming.“Seriously, she really has the guts and is proud to come out to show all of us how much the chairman loved her,” Jen whispered and couldn’t believe it while looking at the hand of the woman anchoring the gentleman’s arm.Rita he
“I’m so sorry, sir. I didn’t know he was your wife.” The security guard’s head slightly bowed. He couldn’t avoid being fearful of losing his job because of this misunderstanding incident.“Let’s talk later!” Zion gave him a cold look before passing him. He quickly followed his wife and his father.Everyone’s judgmental gazes followed the chairman and his female companion. They were not expecting that the woman was so valuable to the gentleman’s life.“That woman will definitely report that Ma’am Rita has bullied her!” said an employee.“Even though she will complain or report, she was just a mistress, and it was certain that the chairman’s wife would side with Ma’am Rita,” said another employee.Other employees agreed. Each of them gave opinions, and all of their opinions turned out negative. But they were quiet when they saw the CEO coming.“That woman will be screwed up, and the CEO will see her!” The lady employee whispered, grinning.Zion looked at the employees. They seemed to be
“Honey, you should take care of her like a baby because of her delicate conception. Give her whatever she wants from you.”“Okay, I’ll look for her, and maybe she’s jealous of what she heard earlier.”Stella’s eyes widened after hearing her husband’s story. She wasn't expecting that Rita had the guts to demand anything from her son. If she were in Alexa’s position, she would be jealous. She went to the room and put on a new outfit. She has to follow her daughter-in-law. She is genuinely afraid that something might happen to her because of jealousy. The trip was rapid since the company’s location was nearby.When Charles got out of the office, he couldn’t find anyone in the hallway. Everyone appeared to be busy with their work, which is obviously a matter since it’s still work hours. She was about to go to her son’s office to find out if his rebellious daughter-in-law was there.“Hello, Mr. Chairman.” Jen slightly bowed her head when she saw the gentleman.“Did you notice the girl I wa
