Diana quickly sorted herself out when she heard that her brother and grandfather had returned home. After a while, her brother entered her room.

“How are you feeling?”

“I’m fine,” she answered flatly to her brother.

She didn’t flinch when her brother touched her chin and examined her cheeks. He ensures that there is no trace of their violence on her face. Next, he looked at her arm. There is a scar there that is noticeable when cream is not applied.

“From now on, when you go out, you will wear longsleeve clothes so that they won’t notice what’s on your shoulder. If you’re going to wear sleeveless, make sure you put cream on it.”

She didn’t answer her brother and just let him check on her skin.

“Get ready next week, and you will attend the event that will be held at the company. Don’t make a mistake this time because that man’s life will be the price if you repeat the mistake you made before.”

Diana’s teeth gritted, but her expression remained blank. She shot a cold look at her brother

    After Stella spoke in the middle of the stage, loud applause echoed around her until the noise gradually subsided.The smile that plastered on the lips of the people who were looking at Stella gradually disappeared and was replaced by surprise as they turned to the person who was the one who was left clapping. The middle crowd spontaneously cleared to see the person standing behind who was continuing to cheer with a wide smile.Charles quickly moved to his wife’s side when he saw Vincent, who was the center of attention for his wife. It looks like he did it on purpose to come late, and he smiled beautifully while still gently clapping.“Sorry for being late. Congratulations to our newly appointed chairman!” Vincent even stretched his arms out as he stared at Stella with a smile.Stella smiled back and approached the old man. “Thank you so much! I thought you wouldn’t come to show me your support,” Stella said meaningfully to the old man. She knew he was faking his smile too.“That won

    “Don Fausto, what do you think your cousin is thinking, and he is hastening the marriage of his granddaughter and my son now?” Kobe talked to the old man.“You should delay the planned gathering to also delay the plans he’s cooking,” Fausto suggested to Mauro’s father.Stella sighed as she listened to the meeting. She was disappointed with Diana earlier, especially from what she was wearing.“Then I’ll call them tomorrow morning,” Kobe’s decision.“It’s up to you to work together in the company from now on. I have to follow Ramon and my grandson to another country.”Mauro nodded understandingly to Stella’s grandfather. He will be Stella’s assistant in the company, and his position also increased. That’s probably what Vincent and his family see as an opportunity, so they want him to marry Diana.“Grandpa, don’t worry, and I will take care of the company.”Fausto smiled at Charles. He also has a lot of trust in him, and he knows that he can protect even his pregnant granddaughter.The e

    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.

    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

    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
