“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
“D-did you really love him?” Charles asked Stella in a choked voice. “What’s the point if I answer your question?” She was already irritated by the young man’s repeated questions and criticism of her. “You’re all mine, aren’t you?”And instead of avoiding the young man, she helped him before he fell. She knew that he couldn’t do her any harm because he was already drunk. She wasn’t that bad to push him out of the room. Besides, the old man was worried that he might not be sleeping yet. “Shh-Stella...”“Damn!” She cursed when Charles’ face sank into her chest. She almost fell over because she had all of his weight on her.“Stella... Why are you doing this to me?”“What the hell, Charles? You know you can’t control yourself when you’re drunk, but you still drink a lot.” She preached to him and walked to bed with difficulty. She laid the young man down on the bed, with her lying on top of him. He didn’t want to let her go, even though he was drunk. “Charles, let go and go to sleep!”
The smile on Don Ramon’s lips did not disappear until he left the house. He was happy to see Charles and Stella together now. “Grandpa, are you all right?” Sophie asked her grandfather tenderly. Don Ramon smiled at the girl. He is also happy to see that she no longer fights with Stella. Sophie stood beside her grandfather and did not want Stella to steal his attention again. But because of what she did, she put Stella beside her brother in the front seat. “Elizabeth isn’t here,” she whispered to herself. The important thing is that her grandfather’s attention is on her. Stella just sat quietly and distracted herself with her cellphone. She received the selfie picture of her son while he was having breakfast. She smiled before replying to her son’s nanny.Charles tightened his grip on the steering wheel when he saw that Stella was busy with her cellphone. It looks like she is talking to her husband. Arriving at the hospital, Stella quietly followed the two siblings, who were pushi
Charles remembers his doctor friend because of the cellphone. He remembered that what she said earlier was not clear because she was in a hurry and she had only taken a calling card from her father, then left. “She was my first patient, four years ago.” It was like an echo in Charles’ mind when he remembered what his friend had said earlier. “Patient? Four years ago?” He talked to himself before straightening up when the thing that had been bothering his mind became clear. Charles stood up quickly and picked up his cellphone that was lying on the small table. Instead of calling Elizabeth, he spoke to his assistant. “Yes sir?” “When Stella left, which hospital did the taxi driver take her to?”Roy frowned and was confused by his boss’s question. “Answer me, damn it!” Charles yelled at the person on the other line of the phone when he didn’t immediately answer. “I’m sorry, sir, I’m still thinking.” Roy was confused, and the young man’s voice raised him up. He didn’t know why he s
“What are you doing here?” Charles asked Elizabeth when he caught her at his office. He had just come from the conference room, and his head was still hot. “Honey, I just wanted to let you know that I’m not mad anymore because of what happened the other day,” said Elizabeth affectionately to her boyfriend. She had made up for the young man, and he seemed to have gotten used to not having her by his side. The event is tomorrow, and she is worried that he might be chosen to be the husband of the heir of the old business tycoon. Charles stared at his girlfriend for a moment. He really bothered himself with any kind of work to give his mind a break from thinking about the past. He had also forgotten the woman and was unable to call her. Elizabeth quickly approached Charles and hooked her hand on his arm. “Honey, I love you so much. I don’t want us to be ruined again because of that woman.”It was as if Charles was burning, and he walked away from Elizabeth. She reminded him of the per
Diana looked around after entering the vast venue. The event was held in a fancy and famous hotel owned by her cousin. They are also rich, but she is still jealous of Don Fausto’s granddaughter. Without his granddaughter, they would be the only remaining close relatives of the old man and his heirs. “Fix yourself,” Vanz said to his sister, and he helped her enter the venue. Diana sighed. If she was the one to be followed, she didn’t want to attend. She was annoyed, and her cousin still had something like this. She was trying to be valuable. Worse, she was really anonymous and hadn’t introduced herself to them ever since. Suddenly, someone approached her brother, so he was busy talking to others. “Diana, is that you?” Sophie greeted the woman. “Oh, hi!” Diana greeted the woman kindly upon meeting her. She had already made an acquaintance because of Stella and her brother.“Nice to see you again. This is my friend, Elizabeth.” Sophie introduced the accompanying friend. Diana smiled
The three women enjoy it so much while watching how the two are forced out. But before they could get away, someone came to the staff. “What are you doing?” The three guards seemed shocked when they recognized the man who approached them. “Mauro, have you been here for a while?” Diana immediately put her hand on the young man’s arm to turn his attention to her.“Why did you let the guards let them out?” Diana was stunned by the young man’s question, and he was clearly angry. She was suddenly nervous that he might find out that she was the perpetrator. She doesn’t want him to know that she has bad manners and looks down on others. “Hi, Mauro, long time no see!” Sophie greeted the man.Mauro frowned even more when he met Sophie. Instead of greeting her too, he approached Stella. Diana let go of Mauro’s arm and followed him angrily. The three guards will really be fired from their jobs later because they were slow to act, so Stella even found an ally. Elizabeth and Sophie looked a
Charles blew air out of his mouth before getting out of the car. He was forced to go there because, otherwise, his grandfather would attend. He didn’t want him to travel and attend such an event because of his illness. When he entered the venue, his sister was the first one to see him.“Hey, brother! I thought you wouldn’t come.” “Has it started?” Instead, he asked his sister and looked at the watch he was wearing. He was thirty minutes late, and in his mind, the choice was over. “No, not yet.” Sophie folded her arms and frowned at her brother. “The emcee announced earlier that it was going to be late because Don Fausto’s granddaughter had a problem.”“Honey, I thought you weren’t coming.” Elizabeth immediately clung to her boyfriend’s arm.Charles looked at what Elizabeth was wearing. Her chest almost burst out because of the depth of the gown that the girl was wearing. It is worn long, but the slit on the side reaches to her groin. “Why are you wearing that?” Elizabeth bit the in
“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? You’r
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
Dave left where he parked his car when he couldn’t spot Alexa. Now that he knows where the woman lives, it’s easy for him to make his plan.At the villa, Simon is surprised to see his granddaughter, and it looks like she’s about to cry. “What happened? 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. This is your fault, Grandpa!” Alexa’s complained to her grandfather.Lourdes’ eyes widened, worried for what might come out of her daughter
