Vanz threw away the cellphone after talking to the reporter. The latter was obviously scared, even though the person who took the picture and gave it to him didn’t admit anything else. “Fuck, he really wasn’t kidding when he threatened!” Vanz whispered annoyingly and seemed to say it to himself. “Brother, what will I do if he confirms that you are the mastermind behind it?” Diana asked her brother in fear.“That would never happen because the reporter will definitely not sing about me. It is his job to publish malicious news to make money. If he makes a mistake, he knows what I can do to him and his family.” Vanz stared intently into the air while clenching his fist.Diana was somehow relieved. If Charles is ruthless, his brother won’t just be afraid. “You have to attract him, and if you have to force him, then do it!" Diana stiffened in her stance, and the timbre of her brother’s voice rose again. “Your brother is right, Diana.” Diana looked at her grandfather, who had just arr
Stella gasped when she saw who was calling her account on an app. He was not satisfied with just a call, and now he wants to video call with her. Fortunately, she put her son to sleep. She left the room for a moment, and Charles might see the child. From his attitude, she knew that he also wanted to see what was around her. “What are you doing?” Looking impatient, Charles asked when the lady answered his call. Stella didn’t open her phone’s camera, but she could see the man. It looks like he’s not in a good mood anymore, and he keeps on frowning. “Drinking wine,” she replied.Charles frowned even more as he focused on the camera. “What’s wrong? Why are you getting drunk?” Stella smiled while carefully observing the man’s face. His hair was messy, and he hadn’t changed his clothes yet. “Where are you?”Charles removed the necktie he was wearing and was irritated because the lady was not answering him. “Brother, are you talking to Sister Stella?”Stella raised her eyebrows when she
“What are you doing?” She was startled in her seat when suddenly, someone spoke over the phone. She had forgotten that her call with Charles was still on. Fausto signaled to his granddaughter that he was going to leave and go to sleep. He doesn’t want the man to know that he already knows about him and his granddaughter’s past. Stella kissed her grandfather’s cheek before picking up her cellphone and facing the camera. She wanted to laugh when Charles’ handsome face greeted her, but with furrowed eyebrows.“Are you with someone else there?” Stella’s eyes rolled because the man spoke in a dominant tone. “Grandpa called me earlier.” Charles’ frowning forehead gradually flattened, and the aura on his face relaxed. “When will you tell your grandfather that I will be your husband-to-be?”Stella frowned and was annoyed by the man’s behavior. “Excuse me, when did I agree with you? And we’re not in a relationship yet.” “We fucked multiple times; isn’t that reason enough for you to marry
“Sophie, we are friends. You have already helped me break the relationship between my brother and Stella. Why—” “Eliza, I regret what I did to Stella.” Elizabeth’s lips parted, and she stared at her friend in disbelief. “What?” “I’m sorry, but I can’t help you this time.” Her eyes were tearful, and she was trying to understand her.Elizabeth gritted her teeth and glared at her friend. “Is it because that woman is richer than me?”Sophie was insulted by her friend’s accusation, but she couldn’t get angry at her. She couldn’t blame her. Even if she were in her situation, she would think the same. “I knew it!" Elizabeth pointed at her friend and nodded while pressing her lips together. “Elizabeth, believe it or not, that’s not the reason. You know I’m not that shallow when I think. I did something in the past that I deeply regret and want to correct now.” “Say it, so I can understand!” Elizabeth’s voice rose slightly as she cried. Sophie closed her mouth and shook her head. “I’m s
“Uhmmmm...” Her voice was trapped in her throat because the man was planting a kiss on his lips aggressively. He seemed thirsty in the way he kissed her lips. And his hands seemed lost, and he didn’t know where to caress. She clung to his long hair as she almost drowned in his kiss and because of the strong sensation that enveloped her being. “Fuck, I can’t get enough of you! Please let me fuck you harder.” Her body arched when she heard the man’s filled-with-desire voice. It was as if there’s something suddenly injecting little by little between her thighs. His hands, which continued to caress her breast, added to the pleasure, while her lips continued to satisfy her mouth.“Damn, Charles, we just fucked yesterday!” She whined in disgust at him but was unable to push him away from her. “We should fuck every time, baby!” he said in a husky voice.“Ahhh, we’re going to an event later.” She tried to find the right thing in her mind to stop the man. “Please, give in to me, and it wi
“Hija, are you hungry? Charles cooked your favorite food.”Stella looked at the man, but he was busy with his mobile phone. She smiled at the old man and approached him. “Grandpa, I want to eat ice cream.”Charles suddenly stopped what he was doing and stood up. “Gloria, is there ice cream in the fridge?” He asked the assistant.Ramon grinned when he heard his grandson’s seemingly excited voice. He wanted to laugh at him, and he knew what he was thinking at the moment. The day before, he was asking him what the signs are when a woman is pregnant. But it’s still too early to say that Stella is pregnant because it hasn’t been a month since anything happened between her and Charles.Charles hurried out of the kitchen without seeing any ice cream. “I’ll just go out and buy you something that you want to eat.”Stella’s gaze followed Charles’s with her mouth agape. It was obvious that he was in a hurry to leave, and he hadn’t even asked her what flavor of ice cream she wanted to eat.“He wi
Stella signaled for Charles to answer the call first. She distanced herself from the man, and she did not want him to hear who she was talking to.“Stella, are you ready for our dinner?” Mauro asked the woman from the other line, smiling. “Ahm, Mauro, I’m so sorry, but I have a sudden trip tonight.”Mauro was stunned for a moment and clenched his fist secretly. When he looked at the woman in front of him, she smiled at him. She was smiling at him because she proved that she wasn’t just making up a story earlier.“Mauro?” Stella called when the person on the other end fell silent.“It’s okay; be careful wherever you go.”Stella feels that the man is disappointed, but she can’t do anything. “I’m really sorry. I’ll be the one to invite you next time.”Mauro tried to smile even though the person she was talking to couldn’t see him. “Alright, see you later!”Stella bit her lower lip when the person on the other line was gone. She didn’t understand the last thing he said. When she looked a
“Mr. Charles, thank you for taking my date tonight. I’m sorry for the inconvenience, but in return, I have brought your partner here as well.” Mauro turned to Elizabeth, who was obviously surprised by his sudden switching partners.Stella did not expect what Mauro did. When she looked at Charles, the aura on his face was dark.Mauro brought Elizabeth closer to Charles before whispering to him. “Just be thankful instead of being jealous and angry. You don’t want the people here to look down on Stella, do you?”Charles clenched his jaw before accepting Mauro’s handshake. He really used the situation to get the woman away from him. A lot of people are watching them, and if he refuses to Mauro, Stella will be in trouble.Elizabeth’s face showed surprise at what Mauro did. This was not what she expected. The plan to humiliate Stella could no longer be continued because of what Mauro did. When she looked at Diana, it was obvious that she was annoyed with her. Vanz cleared his throat when h
Stella smiled when she saw her son’s arrival, carrying his sleeping wife. Charles did the same for her when she was pregnant with Jenny. She was glad that Zion inherited his father’s love even when he was arrogant.“Where’s Dad, Mom?” Zion asked softly as he kissed his mother’s cheek.“He’s sleeping, and it looks like your wife infected him.”“Sorry, Mom, I’ll take my wife to our room first.”Stella smiled as she nodded. Her daughter-in-law is still asleep.As soon as he put his wife down on the bed, she immediately rolled over to the other side of the bed. He even chased after her because he was afraid she would fall. She lay on her stomach and just stopped spinning. He immediately took the large pillow and placed it on her side so that she would not roll. He hurried to find underwear and wore it to his wife so that she could not remember later when she woke up that he had torn her favorite underwear.During dinner, he woke up his wife to eat forcefully. But she was furious with him
Zion couldn’t answer his mom, who was still on the other line, because his wife kissed him like she was hungry. He was trying to respond to her kiss, but she harshly released his lips. That was fucking crazy! He was too excited!“Zion, you go home early, and your wife might be hungry again,” Stella reminded her son again as she was busy looking inside the refrigerator for what she could cook.“Yes, Mom.” Zion seems forced to agree to his mother. “I have to go, Mom; I still have something to finish,” Zion added. He grabbed his wife by the neck and kissed her on the lips.Stella’s forehead wrinkled. She turned the cellphone away from sticking it to her ear. She stared at the cellphone, as if she could see her son there. The call was off, so she couldn't even ask her son why he seemed to be breathing hard. She brushed the thoughts away. Maybe she is just overthinking.When Zion put his cellphone down, his lips were slightly parted when he saw his wife only wearing a bra and underwear. He
Zion sighed when her parents were no longer around. He suddenly felt tired. He sat on the edge of the sofa where his wife was sleeping. Then, he slowly lifted his wife’s head to put it on his thighs. It was still fast asleep, and it didn’t even move from what he did. He smiled as her lips moved and slightly sharpened. He restrained himself from kissing her lips as if tempting him. He just closed his eyes and rested himself first.Alexa woke up as if it were humid around her. She was about to get up when she noticed that she was lying on someone’s thigh. She immediately lifted her gaze, and her eyes met her husband’s handsomeness. It looks like he just slept.She slowly got up and brought her gaze around. She searched for her parents-in-law but couldn’t find anyone else there. They seem to have left her. She held her cheek when something dripped there. “Why am I crying?” she wondered.Alexa pursed her lips and quickly wiped away her tears. But she was really crying, and she was feeling
“Zion…” Rita paused to approach the man when she met his sharp gaze. “I’m really sorry!”“Because of what you did, other employees almost lost their jobs.” Every word Zion uttered was cold and emphasized.Rita bowed her head. She couldn’t speak much in front of everyone because she was so shy. “I just love you so much that I did that.”Instead of feeling pity, Zion was just getting anxious with the girl. She was carrying her stuff and is ready to leave. “It’s not my fault that you are still hoping that I will love you back. Many of them also like you if you only open your heart and mind and give them a chance to enter your heart.”Rita sighed. She knew the man could not understand her because he had never experienced love for someone who could not return the love. Zion was right; it’s not his fault that she expected too much from him. She should be blaming herself for being crazily in love with Zion.“My wife didn’t do anything awful against you, and she has not kidnapped me from you,
Alexa sighed. She doesn’t want them to think she was unfair. And she won because her parents-in-law and her husband were there. “Even if you haven’t slipped in confessing, I can prove that you have a worse attitude and you insulted my personality earlier.” She smiled and pulled out her cellphone. Everyone was surprised. And it seemed like a threat to them.Jen’s knees suddenly weakened when Alexa played the audio recorder. She could hear her voice while she was insulting the woman.Rita was embarrassed and bowed her head as her voice echoed in the audio. She even ordered the guard not to let the woman enter again. She could feel Zion’s sharp gaze on her, and she knew that the man was furious at her now. At this time, she prefers to be like a bubble.“Who called my daughter-in-law my husband’s mistress?” Stella’s eyes flickered as she looked at everyone there. She has never been scandalous, especially in her company, but after hearing the audio record, her horn really came out. She wan
“No need! I know you’re ashamed of me now because I look ridiculous here and am just making up a story to be embarrassed.” She looked up at Zion sharply and wanted to scratch him in the face because she was so annoyed.Zion clenched his fist, holding his emotion. He was more hurt by how his wife is acting now than by accusing him. He’d like to approach her again, but she shook him away.“Do you believe in that woman who claimed you to be her fiancé?” She pointed to Rita. She was shaking out her annoyance.“Hija, calm down. That’s—” Stella paused when the woman sobbed. She suddenly hugged Charles.“Dad, you believe me, right?” She sounds pathetic, but there is this mixture of emotion inside her, which she couldn’t understand.Charles glanced at the woman’s face pityingly. She looked like a bullied kid. “Yes, hija. Don’t cry anymore. Don’t worry, and I’ll get rid of the liars!”Jen got pale and scared that when the chairman had proven she was one among those lying, she would surely get
Everyone was quiet again when they saw the chairman’s wife, and she was obviously furious. They are no longer wondering or surprised why they see that aura in the lady’s face. It is also right that the CEO has arrived and gotten closer to his mother.Rita quickly moved. She almost ran to Zion before greeting the lady. “Zion, have you been here in a while now?”Zion was unable to avoid his arm when Rita clung to it. When he looked at his mother, she was obviously furious, and she seemed to know that his wife was upset with him.Rita smiled even though the man didn’t answer her. She turned her gaze to the lady. “Aunt, is there a problem?”Stella tried to smile at the woman. She was about to answer when she saw her daughter-in-law, along with her husband, coming.“Seriously, she really has the guts and is proud to come out to show all of us how much the chairman loved her,” Jen whispered and couldn’t believe it while looking at the hand of the woman anchoring the gentleman’s arm.Rita he
“I’m so sorry, sir. I didn’t know he was your wife.” The security guard’s head slightly bowed. He couldn’t avoid being fearful of losing his job because of this misunderstanding incident.“Let’s talk later!” Zion gave him a cold look before passing him. He quickly followed his wife and his father.Everyone’s judgmental gazes followed the chairman and his female companion. They were not expecting that the woman was so valuable to the gentleman’s life.“That woman will definitely report that Ma’am Rita has bullied her!” said an employee.“Even though she will complain or report, she was just a mistress, and it was certain that the chairman’s wife would side with Ma’am Rita,” said another employee.Other employees agreed. Each of them gave opinions, and all of their opinions turned out negative. But they were quiet when they saw the CEO coming.“That woman will be screwed up, and the CEO will see her!” The lady employee whispered, grinning.Zion looked at the employees. They seemed to be
“Honey, you should take care of her like a baby because of her delicate conception. Give her whatever she wants from you.”“Okay, I’ll look for her, and maybe she’s jealous of what she heard earlier.”Stella’s eyes widened after hearing her husband’s story. She wasn't expecting that Rita had the guts to demand anything from her son. If she were in Alexa’s position, she would be jealous. She went to the room and put on a new outfit. She has to follow her daughter-in-law. She is genuinely afraid that something might happen to her because of jealousy. The trip was rapid since the company’s location was nearby.When Charles got out of the office, he couldn’t find anyone in the hallway. Everyone appeared to be busy with their work, which is obviously a matter since it’s still work hours. She was about to go to her son’s office to find out if his rebellious daughter-in-law was there.“Hello, Mr. Chairman.” Jen slightly bowed her head when she saw the gentleman.“Did you notice the girl I wa
