"The sunlight streaming in, illuminating his face, disturbed the man. He blinked, slightly dizzy as the light competed to enter his retinas. His brow furrowed in annoyance. However, his expression changed immediately when he felt movement in his embrace.His woman was still sound asleep. Perhaps tired from their activities the night before. A smile played on his handsome face. With Bella, his life became livelier and more colorful than usual, despite the many trials that came to ruin their happiness.He kissed Bella's parted lips. Her lips were still swollen from his kisses and nibbles."ENghh~" Bella moaned, blinking. It was clear she was still very sleepy."Sleep a little longer. You must be very tired," he said understandingly. Bella's lips pouted cutely as Julius released his embrace."Don't go anywhere. Just stay here," she said, very coquettishly.But Bella's stomach growled, making Julius snort. "You must be hungry. Let me make breakfast," he said. Julius wanted to make breakfa
Irish felt she hated herself when the old man touched her. Even though the man has done it dozens of times. Venting his animalistic lust on her. But still, every time this happened, Irish felt like she wanted to die.Tomy doesn't like this. “Irish, look at me,” he said.Tomy deliberately put on a sad face. Giving manipulation to his only daughter."You love your father, right?" asked Tommy. His voice seemed to want to be pitied.Irish nodded her face. "So therefore. Don't stop here, okay? You have to be willing to have your body owned by Mr. Josh," he said.Irish was silent for a long time. Her hands at her sides were clenched into tight fists. “Okay, I will do it. For your sake, father," Irish said.Hearing that, of course Tomy smiled. He immediately took Irish into his arms. He stroked her back."Father loves you, Irish," he said.Irish didn't react to anything other than returning the hug.***"Hueekkk!!!""Hueekkk!!!"Jullius immediately opened his tightly closed eyes. It was only
"What do you want coming here?" her lover asked coldly. Bella tried to control her breath. It still felt tight, making it difficult for these words to come out."Don't avoid me. If there's a problem, let's settle it properly. Isn't that what you always say?" Bella asked.Jullius snorted. "Are you deaf or something? Have you gone senile?"THUMP!Jullius's words were piercing. "I've told you there's nothing to talk about. Why do you keep repeating? You're such an idiot," Jullius said, pointing at Bella's face.Even when Bella cried, her tears flowing like a river, they meant nothing to Jullius."Tch!" He scoffed."I'm sick of seeing you always crying like this, Arabella. You're the weakest, most pathetic woman I've ever met. Are you aware of that? Aren't you ashamed?" Jullius asked.Jullius could see Bella's tightly clenched fists. She bit her lips to prevent the sobs from escaping, but it seemed pointless. Jullius could still hear them.He snorted. "There's nothing you want to say, rig
However, the result remained the same; she was locked inside."Who could have done this?" Bella asked herself. But there was no other name in her mind except for Julius and Damian. Because it would be impossible for anyone else but them to dare to do this."Damian! I know you're outside and you locked me in!" Bella screamed as loud as she could."Quick, open the door! What are you doing?!" Bella screamed again.But there was no answer at all.Bella's tears, which had been flowing since earlier, stopped suddenly. They were replaced by a great anger towards the man. Bella immediately left the room for the balcony. Unfortunately, the door to her balcony was locked. Not only that, but the windows too!Bella's face turned red. "What is this?!" she muttered angrily to herself."Why are all the doors locked?!"Bella tried to calm herself down as she sat on the sofa. She took a deep breath. The feeling of suffocation returned to her as she remembered what Julius had said.Bella cried again li
"I have aborted your fetus," he said lightly, as if it were not wrong. Especially with that emotionless gaze. While Bella was silent, unable to say anything for several seconds before the Woman responded."W-what?" Her voice stuttered, choked in her throat. And now her chest felt very painful, tight. She struggled to breathe. Tears continued to flow from the corner of her eyes, not stopping like a river.And Julius just stayed silent. Not moving at all. His gaze remained the same. Without emotion. No intention to calm Bella even a bit.Creak.Until Damian arrived, Julius turned his head back. Julius and Damian stared at each other for a few seconds before Damian approached her."Bella, drink this first," Damian said. Damian knew Bella must be feeling very shattered. But Bella adamantly refused the kindness Damian offered. Oh, no. Bella absolutely did not want to call it kindness. Damian must have had a role in making her like that."Get out of my sight," she said with pressure. Damian
Lisa joined in crying when she heard her daughter's cries. There was nothing she could do but stroke Bella's back, making her feel better even though it seemed impossible.This was the second time she had seen Bella this broken."Just let it out, Bella. Cry as hard as you can if it makes you feel better," Lisa said.Bella didn't say anything but responded with a tighter hug."Sob... Mother, why?" she asked in a very hoarse voice. Her voice was heartbreaking for anyone who heard it.How could it not be? Bella lost her fetus that she had been anticipating twice. And the second time, what Bella knew was because her lover himself forced her to abort it."Why could Julius be so evil just because the woman who clearly betrayed him? While I, who always there for him, he treats worse than trash."Lisa couldn't answer. Her lips were completely sealed. She just let Bella be calm until her tears subsided. Completely dried up, and Bella fell asleep from crying.Lisa looked at her only daughter wi
"You sure, dear?" Lisa entered her room, looking very worried because Bella had finally decided to resume her activities.Bella turned her head back, looking at her mother and then smiled faintly. "Mom, I'm fine. You don't need to worry," Bella said.Lisa was about to speak, but Bella knew her mother would say something to stop her, so Bella quickly continued. "Moreover, I would be very sad if I continued to stay at home and not be active. I will always remember what I should forget."Lisa was stunned. What Bella said was true. So, the woman could only sigh. She could only surrender."Alright. Do you want me to take you?" Lisa asked.Bella shook her head. "No need. I'll just take the train."Lisa gave her permission. Now Bella was at the train station. She took a deep breath. "This is the new beginning, Bella. There's no use in being sad about what has been changed!" Bella recited those words to herself."You have to rise up! You are not a weak woman! Let's show that you will be happy
"Unfortunately, he doesn't love me anymore. He discarded me."Bella's words at the library never left his mind. Somehow, it made Brandon's oxytocin, the happiness hormone, skyrocket. He knew he shouldn't feel happy over Bella's suffering, but he couldn't hide the surge of emotions because Julius let go of Bella. That meant Brandon now had a chance to have her.Brandon didn't care how difficult the obstacles were, he would face them. He was determined to win Bella's heart."You said you're looking for a job, right?" Brandon asked.They were now in Brandon's car. Bella nodded. "Yes. If you hear about any job openings, please let me know," Bella said with a smile.Brandon nodded. "Yesterday, while I was eating at the cafe I frequent, I saw a job opening brochure. Would you mind working as a waitress?" Brandon asked.Upon hearing that, Bella was very happy. "Of course! Let's go there! I want to apply immediately!" Bella said very enthusiastically.But Brandon seemed hesitant. "Are you sur
