“What the—uhmmmp!” She could not continue what she had to say because Charles quickly sealed her lips with a kiss. She pushed him hardly, but the man was like iron and didn’t budge from his stand.“I miss you!” Charles said in between kissing the girl.Stella was even more annoyed by what she heard. Even though she was longing for his kisses, the anger she felt prevailed. She bit his lower lip so Charles could release her.Charles licked his bleeding lips after wiping with a finger. He was not prepared for what the girl did.“Damn you! We don’t have a relationship where you can kiss me whenever you want!” She growled at the man while wiping her lips with the back of her palm.Charles narrowed his rather narrow eyes and did not let the girl leave the seat. “Then, I’ll hurry up our wedding so we can have a relationship!”“Jerk, I will never marry someone like you, and I don’t want to go through what I went through with you again!”Suddenly, the aura on Charles’ face softened, and he was
Hasn’t my husband come home yet?” Stella asked the maid as she looked around the living room. She had just woken up, and her husband was not with her. “Huh, why are you looking for your husband from me?” answered the housekeeper bluntly. She pursed her lips and stopped herself from answering the assistant. They are not far apart in age from the woman and if she treats her, it’s like she’s on the same level with her. Well, who will respect her if her own husband and his sister treat her like a servant? Instead of beating the servant’s behavior, Stella decided to go to the kitchen. The maid also does not prepare food for her when her husband is not around. She is only kind to her when Charles, her husband, is around.Marimar followed Stella into the kitchen and told her, “Hurry up there and clean up your mess immediately because Señorita Sophie and Doña Magda are coming.” As if she heard no one, Stella continued to cook the eggs. The assistant was referring to Charles’ sister and st
Stella is lying weakly in the hospital bed. The doctor did not agree that she could not be confined because her condition was dangerous. “Sweetheart, aren’t you going to call your husband so that someone will watch over you?” the doctor said to Stella. Stella tried to smile at the doctor. “I already texted him.” The doctor smiled and nodded at the girl. And felt sorry for the new patient because her body was obviously not taken care of. Stella sighed when the doctor was gone. She stroked her deflated stomach again and, somehow, she smiled. Finally, they will have a child with their husband. Now, there’s a reason for her husband to love her and start their family.Her pregnancy was good and timely. She didn’t know that she was five weeks pregnant. What she needs now is extra care so that the child in her womb does not fall. “Shall I let him know?” Stella quickly looked at the man she had been with earlier and shook her head. “You can go now, I’ll call you when I need your help.”
FateChapter 3 Stella swallowed her own saliva, and it seemed to dry up suddenly before looking directly at Charles. “I just want to know if I had a place in your heart even just a little bit?”The young man looked blankly at Stella. “You know I only married you because of my grandfather. Take the money you after me, so you married me in exchange for my freedom.”Stella tried to suppress a bitter smile forming on her lips. She couldn’t blame her husband because that could be the only thing he had on his mind until now. She had no excuse when she was asked why she wanted to marry him. Her excuse was that she had always dreamed of marrying a rich man. But she was very hurt because Charles had never been able to love her during the three years they had been together.The lawyer was surprised when the girl, without a word, took the pen she was holding and signed the divorce paper. He looked at Charles, but he turned and left them. Both Magda and Sophie stared at Stella in disbelief. The
“Babe, good morning!” Elizabeth greeted the young man enthusiastically when she caught him in the kitchen having coffee. Charles frowned when he saw his ex-girlfriend. He looked around, and it looked like he had gone to the wrong house. “I slept here last night with Sophie. You didn’t want to be disturbed, so I didn’t let you know.” She smiled at the young man as she explained. “Have a seat.” Elizabeth quickly obeyed and sat next to the young man. Now that Stella is gone, it’s her turn to share the young man’s breakfast from today. There was no space for joy anymore in her heart because she felt that Charles was hers again.“Marimar, wake up Stella, so she can have breakfast.” Elizabeth stopped picking up the fork and stared at Charles in disbelief. “Sir, since Ma’am Stella left yesterday she has not returned.” The assistant answered hesitantly. Even if the relationship between the two is not good, Stella cannot be accompanied by food when her boss is there.Charles dropped the
“Still no news?” Charles asked Roy impatiently. “Sorry, sir, I’ve checked all the hotels, even small apartments, but she’s not there.”Charles angrily let go of the pen he was holding and gave the staff a bad look. “Don’t you have any other way to find her and bring her back to the house?”Roy bowed his head. When the tone of the young man’s voice rose to such an extent, he obviously lost patience. He wants Stella to return to the house he gave her before his grandfather arrived. “Get out!” he yelled at the staff again when he couldn’t answer him right.A few days passed and he couldn’t contact Stella. What makes him angry is that she just took the money but did not follow one of the agreements in the deed. Attached to that is that Stella still needed to show up to the old man and help him convince his grandfather that they parted amicably. And he got a divorce without a third wheel to intervene. Charles fell into deep thought and wondered where Stella could go. He wanted to blame
“Now that you are strong, what do you plan to do?” Lauro asked his daughter.Stella smiled and caressed her son’s little cheek before turning to her father. “We’re going to live abroad first. Then, I’ll be back when the agreed time comes.” Lauro stared at his grandson’s face. The boy is handsome and has a sharp nose. It doesn’t seem like the kid got anything from their blood. His daughter still didn’t want to let her grandfather know who her former husband was. And he kept his mouth shut and did not lead his daughter. He loved his only child, so he gave her everything she wanted. His only mistake was letting her live on her own then. It was too late when he found out that she had married a man and that she did not love him.“I’ll fix the documents for the two of you.” “Thank you, Dad! You can visit us there often.” Lauro nodded with a smile before kissing his sleeping grandson on the forehead. He is happy for his daughter because she has someone to be with her until old age. Stell
Stella cried when she received news from the Philippines. Wearily, she sat down on the sofa and slowly turned to look at her grandfather. “What happened? And who are you talking to?” Fausto asked his granddaughter. Stella cried even more and could hardly open her mouth. She opened her mouth several times but no words came out. “Stella, tell me what happened?” Fausto yelled at his granddaughter and was agitated to see her tears. “Grandpa, Daddy is…” Fausto’s jaw dropped and his shoulders slowly slumped. He shook his head while not taking his eyes off his crying granddaughter. “Daddy is gone, grandpa!” She was sobbing.Fausto quickly approached his granddaughter and hugged her tightly. Suddenly, his heart went numb and he couldn’t cry. “Grandpa, what am I going to do now that Daddy is gone? Why is this happening? I was just talking to him, and he was on his way here.” Even her shoulders were shaking from crying. What happened was sudden and she couldn’t accept it. “I’ll go home
