Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56In the blink of an eye, Alex had changed. I didn't comprehend what happened. It seemed that he was not the same Alex that I used to know.
And this was the day I dread the most. To wake up to the truth and realize that everything was just nothing but a dream.
That night, Alex didn't sleep in our room. I was feeling restless. I couldn't sleep either. I shed tears until my eyes got dry. Confusion washed over me. I asked myself multiple times, what went wrong? What happened? If this was only a nightmare, I wanted to wake up.
It was the most emotional distress I have been through in my life. I was so devas

I spent overnight in the office finishing the reports. I didn't even manage to eat. Sigh. The feeling that I was working alone in the office was depressing. I kept on checking my phone. Hoping that Alex would text or call me. Unfortunately, I was hoping for nothing. Funny. I still wished for an impossible thing. Gone were the days that Alex cared for me. He didn't talk to me the whole day. He didn't invite me to eat lunch and didn't even look at me when he left the office. I didn't know what's the matter with him. Was it really that easy for him to put everything aside? My heart was shattered into a million pieces, thinking that Alex

I looked at Alexander with a complicated stare, but he glanced at me stoically. I couldn't read what was on his mind. I couldn't read his emotions either. "I saw you and your woman in the library. Is she your new lover? Is everything between us over? Or perhaps there's really no us? What Alex? Tell me!" I muttered angrily when he didn't respond. My heart rate sped up, afraid to hear his reply. What if he admitted that she's indeed his new lover, that we're really over? "Don't dare to leave because I can find you wherever you go." Alex threatened me. Then, he turned and went out of the room without ans

Alex was still standing in the center of the stage, waiting for the host to introduce his woman. I saw him looking in my direction. My heart skipped a beat. However, he quickly averted his gaze when our eyes met. As the host continued, I held my breath. My heart was pounding wildly in my chest. "I'm honored to announce that Mr. Ricafort would also like to introduce his fiancée." The crowd buzzed. Marga and Karen glanced at me. Fiancée? Did I hear it right? Alex would introduce his fiancée? Wait, maybe he didn't want to shock his people. That's why he would only introduce me as his fiancée, not his wife.

Alexander's POV Thanks to Robert, I didn't have a hard time telling Hannah about my real identity. I had the right moment and perfect opportunity to reveal it to Hannah. Although I didn't plan it that way, destiny led the way. When Hannah told me that she would visit her mom at the hospital, I agreed. Then, I asked two of my bodyguards to follow her secretly. Although I could monitor her location, I still wanted to ensure her safety. I only dismissed the bodyguards when they reported that Hannah was on her way home. However, when I noticed that her location was out of the way to the condo, I alerted my bodyguards and quickly followed where

I sat down beside the bed, gazing at Hannah's beautiful pale face. My heart was starting to waver, but my mind kept on reminding myself that she was the daughter of the persons behind my parents' death. I shouldn't feel this way. She didn't deserve any pity from me. I stood up and went out of the room. However, knowing that Hannah was just a wall away from me, I felt restless. So I decided to go home early that day. As I opened the door, I bumped into Liezel, my former secretary. "Apologies, M-Mr. Ricafort." She apologized. I noticed her face turned crimson.

When I woke up, I was already in my room inside my office. I instantly got up from the bed. My neck was still hurting. Then, I saw John sitting on the chair beside my bed. "Did you find Hannah?" I questioned impatiently as I got up from the bed. John shook his head. "We were not able to find her, Mr. Ricafort. So we checked the CCTV footage. You must watch this." He uttered as he handed me his phone. My brows creased, seeing that Hannah was taken away by a man. But the man's face could not be seen in the video since he was wearing a mask and a cap. "Did y

I miss you so much, Hannah. Finally, I heard some news about you. I uttered in my mind.I was so worried about her. I had no idea whoever took her away. I used my influence and power, but it's all useless. I failed to find her. All I could do was to pray that she's alright and hope that I could see her again.I regretted the days when I treated her harshly. I blamed myself that I was not able to protect her. If I proceeded with my plan to introduce her as my wife, she wouldn't have taken away from me."Hey, are you still with me?" David spoke, waving his hands in front of my face that snapped me out of

Hannah/Cassandra's POV Early in the morning, I got in my Mercedes-Benz to go to the Grand Opening Ceremony of the newest mall owned by my family. "Let's go, Mr. Ruiz," I uttered with a blank expression on my face. My voice was coldly monotonous but soft. As the car started to move, I gazed at myself in the rearview mirror. I had a glazed look in my eyes while my lips were tightly pressed. I smirked at myself. I could no longer see the naive Hannah. I am now Cassandra Walton. I didn't know if fate was p

After a while, I raised my head. I glanced at Alex and then back to my grandfather. I had so many questions in my mind that I couldn't manage to ask. My grandfather gently wiped my tears. "Don't cry, my princess. You just gave birth to my great-grandchild." He mumbled in his wavering voice. "I missed you, grandpa. I'm glad that you're fine. I'm so sorry if I left you." I mumbled as I held his hands.

Nine months later. I was preparing for my prenatal check-up when I heard a knock on the door. I glanced at myself in the mirror first and got my bag before I walked out of my room. My tummy was now as big as a round watermelon. Anytime, I would give birth to my baby boy. I was so excited. Everything was ready, from his tiny clothes to his bed. I smiled as I opened the door. It was Arnold. He used to accompany me whenever I would go to my OB since I reached the third trimester of my pregnancy. Although I refused several times, he told me that it's better if I have someone with me, especially now that I would give birth anytime.

He asked with a bright smile on his lips. "What happened?" I questioned. "You fainted earlier." He answered, but his smile didn't vanish from his lips.

I was certain that grandpa had his reasons why he transferred part of his shares to me and not to my dad. But what's his reason? Sigh. I regretted that I didn't insist on knowing. He was about to say it that night when we had talked. However, it's too late now. I signed the Share Transfer Agreement as I thought that it's a simple document and had nothing to do with me.

I took a deep breath before I anxiously turned the doorknob of Alex's office. However, I was surprised at the sight when I opened the door. "A-Alex?" I uttered as my eyes roamed around the room. Mr. Scott, John, and Mr. Adams were also there. They were smiling at me as I stepped into the room. "Surprised!" Mr. Scott exclaimed. "What's going on here?" I asked as I furrowed my forehead. "Guess what? We successfully proved that the renewal of the insurance should take effect even in the absence of the Renewal Advice." Mr. Scott explained while Alex walked towards me and held me on the waist.

So, I want to know the truth from you." "Y-Yes, grandpa. I-I lied to them because--" My grandfather interrupted me. "Don't worry. I understand. You don't have to explain." He uttered with an approving smile.

Alex didn't respond. I glanced at him. He seemed to be in deep thought with his jaw clenched and knitted brows. I didn't speak anymore as I didn't want to give him any more worries. Alex had been very busy the next few days. He looked so exhausted already with dark circles under his eyes. He's still trying to find ways how they could file claims since he would suffer a huge loss if he's not able to get any cents from the insurance company. He consulted their Legal Team and other lawyers for any possible resolution about the matter. Sigh. I couldn't afford to see him like this. And I couldn't just stay silent, knowing that there's a way on how to solve the issue about their insurance claims. Thus I de
