PLAYED BY FATE (English Version) Chapter 17-Conscience
“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

She quickly wiped her lips, as if she were disgusted, when she got away from Charles. She wanted to scold him, but suddenly her cellphone rang. Seeing the caller, she immediately answered it, even though Charles was still in front of her.“Mommy, I’m going to sleep now,” Zion told his mother. His voice was sweet. Stella smiled when she heard her son’s voice. Somehow, the irritation she felt was reduced. “Yes, baby, I’m sorry if I hadn’t called earlier. Have you eaten?”Charles clenched his fist when he saw the joy on Stella’s face while talking to the person on the other line. That kind of female tone in conversation was only used by Stella with him before. And now? It looks like she really loves the person she’s talking to because she’s using the same tone. “Yes, Mommy. I miss you!”Stella smiled again at her son’s sweetness. If she were in front of him, she would have kissed the boy on his cheeks multiple times. “I miss you too, baby!” Charles’s appearance darkened even more. The

“Honey, here’s your coffee.” Elizabeth placed the brewed coffee in front of Charles with a smile. She insisted on making it, even though the young man refused. Charles held his temple and kept his head bowed. He’s not getting enough sleep, so he’s like this. “Honey, drink the coffee while it’s still hot.” She caressed the young man again. “You should be giving him fresh milk to drink.” Charles raised his eyebrows when he heard Stella’s voice.Stella smiled at the two before approaching the refrigerator. She was happy to see the milk she used to buy. It wasn’t there earlier, so it looks like Charles ordered it online. She knew the young man did not like milk. He was only forced when they moved into this house, and she became insistent. Elizabeth annoyingly faced Stella. “Charles doesn’t drink milk,” she calmly answered the woman. Stella didn’t seem to hear anything and picked up some fresh milk. She poured it into the glass, then approached Charles. “It looks like your insomnia i

“Grandpa, go to sleep, and I’ll check on Charles before going to my room.”Don Ramon closed his eyes with a smile before thanking the girl. He will go to sleep, hoping that tomorrow will have a good result for what he did today. When she made sure that the old man was asleep, Stella came out. Alex is waiting outside the house with the things she needs. “Ma’am, your grandfather is looking for you.” Alex bowed his head in front of the girl. “I’ll call him,” said Stella as she grabbed the just-right-size bag from her personal bodyguard. Alex bowed again and said goodbye to the girl. This is the only good thing about the family that he has been serving. They are not forced by family members to talk about the information about the person they are serving.From the terrace, Charles tightened his grip on the glass of wine. He sees Stella while talking to the man who caused their separation. But he frowned when the man bowed his head in front of the girl. It seems they were mistaken in th

“Babe, when you get to know my parents, don’t think they’ll make fun of you.”Alexa’s forehead wrinkled, and her husband looked serious. “What do you mean, babe?”Zion grabbed his wife’s palm and held it tight. “Babe, you once met and talked to them, but they didn’t introduce themselves to you.”“Huh, when?” Alexa was suddenly worried about the fact that she seemed to be under observation of whether or not she would pass for Zion. “Babe, I might not pass as your wife.”Zion smiled, and his concerns and worries reduced. Fortunately, his wife was not able to feel bad, and her understanding was wide, even though her assumption was sometimes wrong.“What do you think, Jerry?” Alexa asked restlessly to the man who was busy driving.Jerry glanced at the front mirror and looked at the couple sitting in the backseat. “I think you’ll pass for them.”Alexa blew air out of her mouth before smiling. Somehow, she had reduced her fear that Zion’s family might not like her because of the state of he

Charles was shocked when he met Alexa outside the elevator. Well, his wife couldn’t wait to see their son later; that is why they rushed here at the company.“Grandpa?” She called the man, even though she wasn’t sure if the person in front of her was the same old man she helped in cleaning.Stella wants to hit her husband, and he looks like a teenager who said ‘hi’ to the woman and even waved at her.When she heard the old man’s voice, Alexa smiled. “It’s really you, Grandpa! Look at you now! I told you that you look younger when you get dressed properly.”Stella wanted to raise an eyebrow, and the woman praised her husband genuinely. If she didn’t just call her husband an old man, she would think she was one of the women who still liked Charles even though he gets older.“Thanks, hija, the truth is—” Charles couldn’t finish his reproach, and Alexa suddenly turned her attention to his wife.“Is she your wife, Grandpa? She’s so beautiful, and she has a resemblance to my husband!” Alexa

“Jerry, that’s not true. She just came and—”“Don’t you remember what I told you to tell me right away when Ms. Alexa arrived?”Jackie bites the inside of her lip’s skin. For Jerry, she was already upset; what more if it came to Zion? No, it shouldn’t. She could not accept that Zion would be mad at her in front of this woman. “Jerry, she wants to wait for Zion to finish the meeting.”Jerry looked at Alexa with a questioning look, but she made him feel sorry for her. He glared at her in his mind; when this woman’s face was like this, he knew she just wanted to annoy Jackie. “Ms. Alexa, you can go inside.”Alexa smiled at Jerry and returned to the chair. “I’ll just wait for him to finish. I have to behave for my husband to love me more.”Jackie looked away from the woman annoyingly, and she was really showing her that Zion loved her. She sneered secretly, knowing that the time would come when Zion would get tired of her. A few minutes later, Zion came out of the office with a lady guest

“Why did you suddenly rush here? Is there a problem?” Charles asked Mr. Zoe.“Mr. Chairman, I’m sorry for my sudden visit. I just want to personally let you know what your son is doing wrong that can affect his reputation as CEO in the company.”Charles’s forehead wrinkles, and so did his wife’s. “What do you mean, Mr. Zoe?”“The news has been spreading about your son’s obsession with a lowly kind of woman.” Zoe looks at the chairman directly in the face.“Low class? How do you say she’s a lowly girl?” Charles challengingly asks the man who is almost in his age.“She has no manners and is destructive. She has no degree and grew up in the street.” Zoe replied in a seemingly angry tone.“Mr. Zoe, the degree is not the basis for being a low-class woman. We can’t even underestimate a person just because they are from a poor family. I have never seen anything wrong with that, but no manners?”Zoe was surprised by what Stella said and was embarrassed by what she had first said. But when she

After eating, Liza was unable to get close to Zion. Her cousin was like a gecko and didn’t leave the man. It was almost sitting on Zion’s lap when they were sitting in the living room.“Zion, what is your plan after Alexa’s graduation?” Simon asked.“We’re getting married again, and this time it’s in the church.”“That’s good!” Simon replied delightedly. “How about your family?”“They just got home from vacation. I’ll talk to them about visiting here.”Liza was once again jealous of her cousin, and her mother-in-law and father-in-law were not just ordinary people because Zion’s parents were obviously rich and touring around the world. If she had been able to get her grandfather’s wealth alone, she could do the same trip.Zion and Alexa went to bed early and woke up early. They need to go home and change clothes before going to work.“Babe, I’ll go to the office later. Are you sure you’re okay going to work now?” Zion asked as he combed his wife’s hair.“Don’t worry; I’m not going to b

“My husband is damn handsome, isn’t he?” Alexa smiled at her cousin.Liza quickly looked away from Zion’s body. She could not imagine that despite what he was wearing, his handsomeness still appeared. He looks super hot, and she gets envious with her cousin. If her cousin’s wedding to Dave had been successful, she might be Zion’s girlfriend or wife now.“He is mine, and only mine! All about him is also mine, and I don’t want to have a rival.” Alexa emphasized every word she uttered.Liza stared at her cousin angrily. Fortunately, Zion entered their grandfather’s room to change. “Let’s see how long Zion will love you.”She also stared at Liza badly. “Don’t make the mistake of dreaming of having my husband, Liza, because I’m really going to beat you up and make you bald! You should be contented with your pervert boyfriend!”Liza was very upset, and the anger she felt for Alexa only increased. “It’s your fault Dave was fired from his job, so I’ll make you pay back!”“You know what?

After entering the room, Alexa immediately hugged her husband. But instead of being sweet with her, she instead received a sermon from him.“Babe, don’t repeat what you did earlier when you left without saying goodbye and even left your cellphone behind.”Alexa pouted. “Babe, don’t be angry. I forgot to call you back earlier because I was in a hurry to come here to get home right away. I want to get my inheritance from Grandpa so I can slap your woman’s father with it.”Zion frowned and remembered what the old man said earlier. “Who insulted your personality earlier?”“I don’t know him, but he said that he knows your family personally and that he is the father of the woman you are destined to marry.” Alexa suddenly frowned and sulked at the man because he has another woman.“That bastard! How dare he brag about himself and tell you about his daughter!”Alexa frowned even more and spoke badly of her husband. “Babe, slow down!”Zion’s forehead still didn’t flatten even though his wife l

“Go inside and coax your wife. But you should stay here overnight, and I want to be with my granddaughter too.”“Thank you very much for understanding, Grandpa.” Zion stepped forward first and entered the house.When Alexa saw her husband, she jumped down from the high leg stool where she was sitting. “Babe, how did you know I was here?”“Why did you leave the company and leave your bag in my office with your cellphone?” Zion asked his wife, sounding angry.“I don’t know where the way back to your office from the exclusive room is. Then when I went out the door, another man met me, and he was angry.”“Wait, you own the company that my grandchildren have joined as interns?” Simon asked the young man in shock.Alexa’s eyes widened. She doesn’t want anyone else to know about her husband’s true personality, especially her family. Not that she’s embarrassed or anything. But maybe they will take advantage of Zion’s kindness. She knew her grandfather; he didn’t just have business on his mind

Where is your husband?”Lourdes is also worried that she approached her daughter because of her sudden arrival.“Grandpa, they are so bad!”“Who?” Simon and Lourdes asked at the same time.“The family of the woman who likes Zion!” Alexa sat down on the sofa.“What? Zion has another woman?” Simon asked angrily.“Someone likes him, and it’s not a woman.” Alexa’s correction.“Then why are you getting affected by them? You should not go home here but to your husband’s, so that you can fight for him.” Simon’s sermon.“Grandpa, they belittled me and told me that I’m not suitable for Zion because I’m poor.
