“Is he the one you said was your friend, Diana?” Vanz asked his sister. “Brother!” She smiled and held on to her brother’s arm. “That’s him, brother, and please don’t torture him here.”Mauro scratched the back of his neck and could no longer refuse the girl’s invitation. He knows Vanz. He knows that he is one of the nominees for CEO of that company today. Vanz faced the man with a smile. “It’s nice to meet you again. I apologize for being in the conference room earlier if I have a lot of questions.” Diana pursed her lips and gently pulled her brother’s arm. It means that she didn’t like what he did earlier.“I understand that business is business. Even if I were in your position, I would do the same. Thank you for being professional, and please don’t give me special treatment because your sister became my friend.”“Mauro, don’t worry because you are no longer at work, so my brother will talk to you like this. Get used to him because he treats everyone close to me like this.” Her
“Ma’am, let me prepare you your favorite breakfast.” Marimar quickly moved away from the boss’s ex-wife. Stella tried to stop the maid, but she had already moved away. She looked back at Charles, as if she were hallucinating, when the strange emotion was reflected in his eyes. It was as if her sight was deceiving her, and she could read in Charles’ eyes that he longs for her. Charles blinks in realization. It was as if he hadn’t recognized his own feelings earlier and had briefly lost himself. “It’s good that there is still some consent left in your heart and you thought of visiting Grandpa.” The anger returned to her heart because of what the young man said. It seems that she was just deceived by her own eyes earlier. The man is still arrogant and has no love for her. He still thinks of her as a gold digger and a hypocrite.“I don’t want trouble. I didn’t come here to talk to you.” Charles was momentarily stunned by Stella’s cold conversation with him. He stared into her eyes, bu
“Hija, be patient with my grandson. Don’t worry about me because there is a nurse who is already taking care of me. I am happy to see you today, and I am relieved because you seem to be happy with your life now.”Stella smiled and nodded to the old man before turning to Charles. “My husband is rich, so I don’t have to work hard to earn money.”Charles’s jaw tightened and moved. He couldn’t accept that his ex-wife no longer needed him because it looked like he had been replaced with a man with more money. “But don’t worry, I’ll still visit Grandpa Ramon and take care of him when I have time. I guess I am still welcome here anytime I want to come since this is my house, ain’t I?” “Of course, but let Grandpa stay here because he prefers to live here.”The young man’s face was formal when talking to her. She shook herself when she looked at his face again. The man seemed to be doing it with purpose, and he even grew his hair longer. “Don’t assume. You’re not the reason why he grew his
“The million pesos you are talking about; are you sure she took them in exchange for her freedom?” Charles was even more confused by the question from his grandfather. All he knows is that Stella accepted the money and left. “And you believe she has another man?” Ramon asked his grandson again. “Grandpa, you heard her saying earlier that she is married to a rich man.” He seems to be forced to answer his grandpa. Ramon shook his head. “Your sister, I hope he wouldn’t be stupid in choosing a marriage partner. And doesn’t become blind to the truth like you.”Charles sighed softly and didn’t argue with what his grandfather said. If he is the one that follows, he wants to expel his stepmother from their siblings’s lives when their father is gone. But Sophie loves Magda because she is her mother, who has come to her senses. His grandpa didn’t speak again, so he distracted himself with work again. “The food is ready, grandpa. Come on, I know you miss my cooking.” Stella energetically ap
“What are you doing here in my grandfather’s room? What do you need, and why did you come back?” Sophie asked Stella one question after another and immediately approached her grandfather. Stella thought about it. If Sophie acted, it would be like she was doing a disservice to her grandfather. “Sophie, what kind of question is that? It’s Stella’s house, so you shouldn’t be asking her that kind of thing.”Sophie was annoyed with Stella because she’s still the one that her grandfather is siding with. “She didn’t sign the deed, so she has no right to the house from my brother,” replied Sophie. Magda jumped from her stance when she heard what Sophie said. She suddenly got nervous, and the information might reach Charles’ knowledge.“What did you say?” Ramon’s eyes narrowed. “What that means is that you know she didn’t take what your brother gave her, but you didn’t tell Charles?” Sophie suddenly turned pale, and her chest puffed out. It’s too late to take back what she said out of jeal
The old man was already asleep when the doctor arrived. Stella just stayed on one side and had no intention of leaving, even though Sophie looked at her badly. “It’s a good thing that his blood is further prevented from increasing. Avoid getting him too angry.” The doctor’s advice to the patient’s family. “Let her go, brother, before Grandpa wakes up so that Grandpa doesn’t feel bad again.” Sophie pointed at Stella. “If you don’t have anything sensible to say, shut up, Sophie!” he said in a stern voice. Sophie’s lips were tightly pressed together, and her heart was filled with anger. She was the only one who heard what her brother said, but she was very embarrassed because it seemed like Stella was still taking sides.“You need to take him to the hospital tomorrow morning, and he needs to be tested,” the doctor reminded them while arranging the contents of his bag and preparing to leave. “Thank you very much, doc.” Charles shook hands with the doctor before leading him outside th
“You should thank me and be kind. Maybe you forgot you had a choice before you left?” Elizabeth quickly looked around, and maybe someone else heard what Stella was saying. “You, shut up! No one will believe you, even if you talk to them!” She gave Elizabeth a scornful look. She is good at pretending, just like Magda. She also uses Sophie, and she is infected by the plasticity of their behavior. “Don’t worry, I have no intention of returning to this family, so your secret will remain a secret.”Elizabeth’s gaze followed Stella’s, full of anger. After she spoke, she turned her back as if she were talking to trash.Inside the library, Sophie quietly approached her brother. When she looked at her stepmother, she was also silent. The aura on her brother’s face was intimidating, and she was even afraid to ask why they were called there. “Tell me everything now, you two.”Sophie and Magda looked at each other, both clueless as to what Charles was talking about. “Why did you tell me befor
“Don’t worry, I’ll return the ring to Grandpa. I forgot he gave it to me.”Charles opened his mouth but closed it again. He can’t say what was on his mind, and his ego is leading him again. “Maybe it’s the ring you’re waiting for to marry Elizabeth.”“I can marry her even without that ring!” She wanted to raise her eyebrows when she noticed that the young man’s jaw had tensed. She didn’t know what was making him angry, and every word that came out of his mouth had an emphasis.“Okay, I shouldn’t feel guilty about why you two aren’t married yet. You can take the jewelry if you regret giving it to the maid. But the clothes, bags, and shoes, let them go to Marimar.” Charles’ jaws clenched even more. It seems that the girl’s things are of no use to her. It really makes him feel like everything related to him is no longer important. “If you don’t need anything else, I’m going into the room to get the ring.” She didn’t wait for Charles to answer. She hastily turned around and made her w
Everyone was in trouble when Zion was not seen immediately. Even Diana and her husband have joined in the search for their son.At the back of the church, Zion gasped when he and a little girl suddenly tripped over at the same time. He thinks that he is younger than him, and if she acts, she is more better than him, which is, in the first place, he is the boy.“Don’t worry, and you’re safe.” The girl gasped and sat on the ground.“What? Did you save me?” Zion pointed out to himself and stared in disbelief at the girl’s gentle face.The little girl pouted and examined the entire body of her companion. “Can you just talk in our native language because we’re not in another country?”A corner of Zion’s lips lifted, and he stared at the girl’s face in amusement. Even if it looks dirty, she’s still cute. “Didn’t I save you?”The girl frowned and stood up. “Why are you saving me?” She pointed at herself.Zion scratched his head, and it looks like he made a mistake earlier. So he came out of
“Happy?” Stella asked her cousin, smiling as they both looked out at the sea and watched the sunset.“Super, I thought I was the only one who would love him forever.” Diana looked in the direction of their husbands, who were busy stewing barbecue.Stella’s gaze followed where her cousin was looking, and she smiled again. They are almost in the same situation as she and Diana suffered. They both fell in love with the man who had no love for them before. Fate really played with them before achieving their longed love of their now husbands. Stella shook her head when her husband looked at her and winked.Diana excitedly poked her cousin in the side and saw what Charles did."Oh, come on, nothing excites me, and my belly is already big.” Stella frowned but smiled.Diana just laughed and looked at her cousin’s stomach. “Your eldest is already grown; don’t you have a plan to send him back home to the Philippines?”Stella sighed. “Although he is still young, he knows how to be independent. Z
After their passionate, hot sex, Mauro hugged his wife tightly while her head was lying on his shoulder.Diana was so happy that she pressed herself into her husband’s body and smelled the mixture of sweat and his natural scent. She looked up to see his handsome face, but he greeted her with a warm kiss.“Hey, we’re just finished. Baby might crush in between.” She slapped her husband on the shoulder, and he looked horny again.“Wife, the doctor said that our baby is not yet complete, so we need to increase its development. You know, we might have twins.”Diana snorted, and it looked like she couldn’t stop her husband again from his horniness. She could feel the hardness of his cock revived and pounding on her thigh.“Wife, this would be the last one today.”She didn’t object anymore, and her husband’s face looked miserable. He looks hungry, and it seems to be having pain inside his body. Even though she didn’t respond yet, he was already on top of her. And here she is; her body also r
Diana buried her face in her husband’s chest, and the people they passed looked at them. Why don’t they look at them when she is in a two-piece swimsuit and her husband is in business attire? It looks like she just ran away to the beach, and her father is picking her up now.After entering the room they were occupying, only then did her husband put her down. “Mauro, are you angry?” She asked nervously when he suddenly turned around.“No,” Mauro answered briefly and kept his back turned from Diana.Diana was left speechless and moved in front of her husband. “Then, why don’t you want to look at me?”“Tsk, why are you wearing just that? You know it’s cold outside; what if your stomach gets cold?”A naughty smile formed on her lips and her husband obviously avoided looking at her body. It doesn’t look like he’s angry because of what she’s wearing. She brought herself closer to him when her husband still didn’t want to look at her.Mauro swallowed his own saliva when his wife’s finger car
“Mauro, it looks like you have a bigger problem to deal with now,” Charles said while looking at his cellphone.Mauro quickly grabbed Charles’ cellphone and looked at what he was talking about. “What the heck! Where is the dress I bought for her?”Charles laughed while looking at the reaction on Mauro’s face when he saw the picture of his wife. His wife sent that, and Diana was facing at her, but her gaze was in a different direction. He couldn’t deny Diana’s beautiful body. Well, only his wife is ahead of her for him. But because Diana’s stomach is not yet obvious, many people are attracted to her beauty and think that she is still a young woman, and not married.Mauro’s nose almost started to smoke because of anger. If only he could pull his wife out from the cellphone, he would have done it. It is also visible in the photo those men behind his wife and staring at her. And he doesn’t like those kinds of stares.Charles signaled the driver to drive back to the resort. He also needs t
“Put your hands up and don’t try to fight back because we were now surrounding you!” The leader of the police officers to catch the criminals’s warning.Denise felt her head swell and was afraid to go back inside to find a place to hide. One of her staff moved quickly and approached the tied woman to be used as a hostage. But the woman’s ability to move quickly surprised him, and her hands were no longer tied.The man was not prepared for what the woman pretending to be Diana did. She stood up quickly and grabbed the chair and threw it at the man. After that, she raised a leg and kicked the other man.Denise was no longer able to move on her stance out of shock and fear of the woman she thought at first was Diana. When she turned to her, she abruptly took a step back towards the door. She was suddenly afraid of her, but she ended up in the hands of the police officers.The police immediately handcuffed Denise while he was reading the Miranda Rights to her.“No, let me go! You caught t
Denise was very happy when her staff called her that they had gotten Diana. She immediately prepared to go to the woman in an old warehouse, and her staff took her there.On the beach, Diana was surprised when her husband asked permission that he was leaving first and that Charles was also going with him. When she looked at Stella, it seemed that she didn’t care that her husband was leaving again and leaving them alone there.“Never mind those two, and it looks like there’s new business that they’re being taken care of.” Stella put her arms around her cousin.“What else can I do? With or without amnesia, his business seems more important than mine,” Diana answered in a sullen tone, and only now did she get her thoughts out.“Don’t sulk, and he will make it up for you for sure.” Stella winked at her cousin.Diana frowned at her cousin, and her brain turned green even though they were both pregnant.“Come on, don’t frown there anymore. I know a way to get revenge against those two for l
Stella frowned again when she received her husband’s message. She and Diana were about to go out, and she would accompany her until Mauro arrived.“Is there a problem?” Diana asked her cousin.Stella smiled and shook her head. She didn’t know why her husband was ordering her, but she obeyed anyway. “Come with me, and I have to use the comfort room first.”Since Diana also suddenly felt like peeing, so she stood up and followed Stella. After entering the comfort room, she first entered a cubicle.Stella had just washed her hands and was just drying her hands when she received her husband’s call.“Babe, there’s a girl imitating Diana’s outfit in the bathroom. Go with her and get out of the salon.”Stella’s eyes widened when suddenly a woman appeared behind her. She came from one of the cubicles, and she was wearing the same clothes as Diana. She was about to open her mouth to ask her husband when the woman signaled her not to make any noise.“Babe, cooperate first. Go out with that girl
“Are you sure about your plan?” Charles asked Mauro from the other line.“Yes, I have a strong hunch, and I want to be sure.” The aura of Mauro’s face was dark as he looked at the dark sky. Nature seems to sympathize with his mood. Only household lights serve as light around, and there is no moonlight or even stars in the skies.“What will you do when you prove that she is the culprit?” Charles asked tentatively, and he doubted Mauro’s feelings.“I will burn her like she wanted to do to my wife and our child!”Charles was silent on the other line, and he could sense the anger in Mauro’s voice. His doubts disappeared completely on him. “I’ll take care of it tomorrow.”Mauro thanked his friend and immediately hung up. He returned to the room and lay down beside his sleeping wife. He didn’t fall asleep right away because there were many things bothering his heart and mind. When his wife moved, he quickly hugged her. He almost lost her twice. So he won’t wait for that to happen again, and
