“Stella, hija, is that really you?” Don Ramon weakly called the girl when he saw her sitting next to the bed right after he opened his eyes.

Stella stood up quickly and came closer to the old man. “Grandpa, how are you feeling?”

Ramon was about to cry as he raised his trembling palm and held the girl’s hand. “Hija, I don’t know how much time I have left.”

Stella bit the inside of her mouth and prevented herself from sobbing. She let out a deep sigh before whispering to the old man, “Grandpa, I’m sorry if I hid this for so many years. I’m sorry if I thought not to introduce him to your family. I just don’t want my son to be exposed, especially if he was raised without a father by his side.”

Ramon’s eyes danced with joy, and he couldn’t believe what he heard from the girl. Even though what she said was not complete, he had guessed it. “I understand you, hija. Thank you very much for bringing my first great-grandchild back to life! I will never forgive Charles if something bad happene

    When Stella returned to her former husband’s home, it was quiet. Marimar was not there either, which she wondered about. The old man was in the living room and seemed to have been waiting for her. “Grandpa, why are you here in the living room? Have you had dinner?” “I’m done, hija, but Charles hasn’t yet.” Stella turns to the nurse and looks at her questioningly. “Sir Charles has been getting drunk for a while now and doesn’t want to be disturbed,” Rhea explained. Stella frowned and wondered why the young man suddenly got drunk. But when she remembered Elizabeth, she shook her head. “Perhaps he is hurt by the act of breaking up with Elizabeth, so he drinks.”Ramon quickly shook his head as well because the girl was thinking wrong. “I think you’re understanding it wrong, hija. I’ll go see him first, and maybe he’s had too much to drink.”Stella quickly stopped the rolling of the wheelchair that the old man was sitting on. “Let me do it, grandpa. You go and get some rest, and we ha

    “Ahhhh… fuck! Faster, baby!” He groaned and squeezed her buttocks.Instead of being hurt by what the man did to her, the libido in her body only increased. She moaned as if she were delirious while shaking herself faster in front of Charles.Charles could not satisfy his position with the woman. He quickly stood up with her. He turned her back and immediately banged her from behind.“Ahhhhh...” Accompanied by a long moan, Stella’s chest heaved. She clung to the sofa tightly so that she wouldn’t sink.Everything about her shook because of the strength and speed with which the man banged her from behind. She was almost in a trance because of the pleasure as the man banged her faster. It’s good to listen to how Charles moans, and it’s obvious that he’s also enjoying what he’s doing.Charles made a few more strong thrusts until he could barely pull himself out of being buried in the woman’s womanhood. He looked up and tightened his grip on the woman’s hips at the same time as he deeply bu

    “Whether you like it or not, you will marry me again. You have no one else to marry but me.” She had goosebumps at Charles’s cold voice while the blank expression plastered on his face. “Whatever you’re planning is not good enough to get me by force. Don’t go ahead with it!” “Who cares? It’s important to me now to be your husband and take care of your company,” he answered the girl arrogantly. Stella tried to hide the disappointment she felt. She is now doubly angry with the man because he only proved to her that his wealth and reputation were the only things that mattered to him.“From this day onward, you have to answer my phone calls. I need to know where you’re going when you leave alone.” “Asshole, what do you think of me, a woman you can control just like Elizabeth?” Her teeth gritted while her lips pressed together. “Think about all the bad things about me. I know you’re angry, and this is my only way to make you mine again.” He still spoke coldly to the girl. “In your d

    Ramon’s eyes spontaneously shed tears when the boy got close to where they were. He still couldn’t believe that he actually had a great-grandchild, and Charles didn’t know about it. “My great grandchild!” Zion stopped walking and looked back and forth between his mother and the old man sitting in the wheelchair. “Mommy, is he my second grandfather?” Stella nodded at her son with a smile. She had already told him about their arrival, so he wasn’t surprised. That’s all the boy waited for, and then he eagerly approached Don Ramon. “Son, be careful!” She supports her son, who hugs his grandfather. She also lifted him to reach the old man’s cheek and kissed him there.“I love you, grandpa!” The boy kissed the old man, who was crying with joy on his cheeks nonstop. “Oh my, God! I have a grandchild, and your dad looks just like you!” Stella was stunned and waited for her son’s reaction as if in slow motion. The boy released himself from hugging the old man and frowned. Her chest pounde

    “Grandpa, I’m just going to go to the pharmacy,” said Stella while looking around and looking for a parking spot. She thought about buying a drink earlier, but the old man was too excited and wanted to go on a trip. Ramon and Rhea looked at each other, and before Stella could stop the car in the parking area, Rhea suddenly panicked. Ramon got what his nurse wanted to happen and played his role in the show. “Sir, what happened? Are you all right?” Rhea felt the old man’s chest while fanning him with her other hand. Both of them sat in the back for this show. “What’s going on?” Stella looked worriedly at the two, and the parking of her car was out of order.“Señor Ramon seems to be having trouble breathing.” “I’m fine.” Ramon choked slightly while closing his eyes. Stella immediately revved the car’s engine and hurriedly got back on the road. “I’ll take you to the hospital.” “Don’t worry, hija, my breathing is back to normal.” Ramon shook his head in denial. “No, grandpa, you ne

    For the first time, Sophie swallowed her pride in Stella. She was also ashamed of what she had done to her before. Especially for those things that she said to her that were not good about her before, like insulting her character. Now, she proved that Stella’s behavior towards them was not just hypocrisy. Because she truly cares about her grandfather and loves her brother. But she was one of the reasons why the relationship between the two broke down. When Sophie looks at Stella, she looks at her with doubt. That kind of look suggests that she’s going to do something bad, so she’s being kind to her now. She deserves this kind of treatment from Stella. Even if she apologizes to her this time, she knows that she will doubt her even more and think that she has other motives. “I’ll be outside,” Stella said bitterly before facing the door. It was only right that the door opened and a female doctor entered.Their eyes met, and the woman looked surprised to see her. She couldn’t see her en

    “I promise, I will tell my brother too, but not now. Stella was the only one Grandpa wanted to be my brother’s wife from then until now. If he finds out that Stella got pregnant, then Grandpa might not be able to handle his heart!”“I’m not in a position to interfere in your family’s problem right now. But last week, your brother contacted me and wanted to know why your former sister-in-law was my patient. Just now I remembered again about your brother’s call that I didn’t answer because I was busy abroad.”Sophie bit her bottom lip and mentally thanked her because her brother didn’t know anything yet.“I’ve tried to avoid your brother for now. But I hope you can fix everything before he asks me again.”“Thank you very much!” She quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled sadly at Jenny.From the bed, Ramon silently cried. He heard everything his granddaughter said. He was very disappointed with what she did, but he could not reject or punish her. He is already weak, and if he g

    “Hija, Stella, and her lover are working together against me! Look what they did to me!” Magda showed her red cheeks to Sophie. “Mom, just lower your voice, and it’s embarrassing!” She scolded the lady almost in a whisper. “What?” Magda stared at Sophie in disbelief. She now looks at the girl as if she is possessed by an evil spirit. “Do you hear what you’re saying?” “Mom, that’s enough. The man with Stella wasn’t her lover,” she whispered annoyingly, and she didn’t want to embarrass her stepmother even more. Magda was only annoyed by what she heard. She’s not that old to be forgetful and forget the past. “Sophie, don’t you remember that man who was accompanied by that prude before?” Stella wanted to laugh at what Magda was saying. And she actually strengthens the disclosure of what she knows, which is all accusations. Alex tries to approach Magda to teach her a lesson again, but she stops him. “I said enough! That man is not her lover, but her personal bodyguard!” Sophie couldn’

    “Shit, what is it again, Diana?” Mauro asked the girl, yelling. It’s a good thing that there was no car following them because he suddenly stepped on the brake.“Sorry, I saw sister Meashelle’s favorite food,” Diana explained like a scolded child.Meashelle immediately got what the girl wanted to convey. “Ahh, that’s right. The truth is that I went with Señorita Diana to buy the food I really loved.”Mauro frowned and looked around to find the diner. But he sees nothing but street vendors.Meashelle looked at Diana questioningly, and she didn’t know what food she wanted to buy for her.Diana first glanced at Mauro. Seeing that his attention was not on them, she immediately whispered to Meashelle, which made her look flustered.Meashelle was suddenly in trouble because of the girl’s wish. She doesn’t know what to do and must tell Mauro so she doesn’t get suspicious.“Are you alright? Why haven’t you come down to buy?” Mauro asked the assistant.Diana elbowed Meashelle in her side. And

    “Oh, eat this to get rid of your anger.” Meashelle gave a slice of mango to the girl as they walked to the entrance of the store.Diana immediately took a bite of it. She was about to ask for one more slice when she noticed two people looking intently at her. She slowly chewed what was in her mouth and continued to walk slowly.“Are they waiting for us?” Meashelle asked Diana in a whisper.Diana shrugged as she looked straight at Mauro. Well, he couldn’t see her eyes because she was wearing dark shades. He frowned again while looking at her. Her mouth was still full of mango slices, and she didn’t want to finish it right away. She is still enjoying the taste of the mango juice. She anchored on Meashelle’s arm, and when they were close to Mauro and Denise, they hurriedly past them.“Where are you going?” Mauro asked Diana sternly.“Going home.” She answered the young man in a muffled way because her mouth was still full and she didn’t bother to look at him.Mauro quickly chased after t

    “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

    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

    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.

    “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

    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

    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

    “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
