I lost the courage to face every challenge that our relationship would face. I have in mind what happened the other day. I heard my phone make a sudden beep that's why I looked to see who texted. It's him. It's good to read his message encouraging me to be strong enough to conquer the fear I have. He motivates me that after the trials that our relationship encountered, we will be experiencing the fruit that perseverance and believing in love may bring to us. "You're smiling now? It doesn't seem like you were in that mood last time, Veronne. What happened? Are you and Mister Zillionaire settled what's going on between your relationship?"I put the phone in my bag after reading his text. I stared at Mitch and nodded softly. "Yes," I answered her briefly. "That's why your smile is wide! You know, I made the right decision to call him the night you got drunk. I know he's your sedative."My friend was right that when I was attacked by fear and dread, that man was all I needed to bring m
"Congratulations," he said, gently writing a slanting line down my face using the front of his thumb. His gaze was deep in my eyes and I thought he surpassed the proud parent because his child is graduating after a few hours."I am very grateful because I am with you today.""Veronne, I'm sorry."“I understand, Marcov. You don't even need to apologize. Don't worry, I pray that the day will come when both of us will be free, and we can expose our relationship to the public."At first I knew that he wanted to introduce me to people. What he's telling me is that he doesn't care what others say. I understand him now because his uncle suddenly interjected, and said that he wanted him to marry another woman to save their ass. "I was the one telling you before that we shouldn't be afraid of people, but I'm the one telling you now that I hope you understand the situation first."“Marcov, I believe we can handle this situation. I will give you enough time.”"I promise that I will find anothe
"Marcov, why are you making my eyes wet every time that we are together?"Another romantic date is happening right now. He must be telling the truth about us, collecting romantic moments together."Baby, I'm not poking your eyes," he teased me. The two of us were here above the yacht while the lights around it were reflected on the surface of the sea. I thought earlier that he would sleep with me in the same room and on top of the bed in the condominium. Well it's not. He invited me to fulfill our decision to go on a date on the yacht. The two of us were leaning on the soft cushion. We were both holding wine glasses. He told me that this was his favorite yacht of all the ones he bought. Again, I am amused of hir wealth."Aren't they going to look for you there at your house?""They were still having fun there. Kalvis is with your other classmates and his best friends. I did my part in his party already.""Your son will be surprised again because you suddenly disappeared."He shook
I called Mitch to meet me three days later during my yacht date with Marcov. The two of us were in a coffee shop, talking about how we miss our school days even though only a few days had passed since our graduation ended. "So what's your decision again? Did you say yes to him?” she asked me after I shared to her the things that we and Marcov agreed."As if I had a choice.""You have a choice, Veronne. Say you don't want Marcov's secretaryship to go to someone else. You're becoming a jealous girlfriend now."I rest my case. I sip from my cup. "You can't speak? What I said is true, isn't it? You're not like that before. You weren't jealous before, Veronne. Don't you want someone else to call him baby?"My cheeks reddened because of what she said. She really got me. "Anyone would probably be jealous, Mitch. I don't believe there are girlfriends or boyfriends who aren't jealous. How about you, Mitch? Don't you get jealous when other women are around your boyfriend?”"Hmmm. I will kill
My eyes were staring straight at the god who was aggressively taking off his clothes. His body is revealed now. I asked myself. Is it true that this man is forty-five years old? His body is built well as a school athlete. "What's with that stare, baby?"I grabbed the end of the bed when he suddenly bent down and stared at me. His gaze is devouring me again. His fresh and candy-like breath is pulling me to land my kisses on his soft-rosy lips. We are now kissing each other and it creates a harmonious moaning inside the roomI don't want to talk while we are giving pleasure to each other. My eyes widened at what he did. He didn't even take off the dress I was wearing properly, instead he tore it off my body. “Marcov—”"Shh, baby. Don't talk unless I'm telling you, okay?”“But my dress—”"I can buy you a whole store that is filled with branded dresses, baby. Don't complain about what I do. You made me want to do this to you so complain not.""Well, if you say so."I closed my eyes wh
A few weeks have passed, now I'm on my way to Greyford Empire through my new Mercedes from Marcov. I learned to drive easily. Now I have mastered how to drive it. I picked up my phone and answered the call when it suddenly rang. I am quite nervous because I am still driving. I told him not to call me while I was driving because I suddenly got nervous but he didn't believe me. "Marcov, I'm still driving.""Baby, I'm going to be late to come to the office. Micah is there to guide you and teach you what to do."This is my first day as his secretary. I'm knowledgeable about things, I learn quickly but I can't help being nervous. Greyford Empire is not just a lower class company. This is the most famous company in the entire country and in other countries. And imagine, I am Marcov's secretary. As well-known as he is and as well-respected as his name is, I should be able to work quality as well. “Marcov, can I do this? I'm really nervous," I told him. "Because?""Marcov, I'm nervous be
"Here's the folder," he said without looking at me.. I checked every paper again and saw that there was one paper that needed his signature. “Kalvis — Sir Kalvis, there is a paper that has not been signed. I guess you forgot to sign it."He looked at me with an unpleasant stare. He seemed to be upset. "Veronica, just come back here, later. Come back here later because I have something else to do. Something that is more important than that.”I frowned because of what he said. Why does he have to send me back here when he can sign right now. "Sir, maybe you can just sign it now. It won't take a minute to sign it."He stood up. He leaned on the table and took a deep breath. He came out from the middle of his table and swivel chair to come near me.I bowed so that I could not look into his eyes trying to destroy the piece of strength that I have this morning. "Look at me," he ordered me. I bit the inside of my lower lip while slowly staring at him. “Sir?”"In our lives, there are t
-Marcov-I felt like the sky had fallen on me when I heard Kalvis' voice. "Son?!"I looked back at Veronne and she was restless because Kalvis was staring at her intently. "Dad?! You know what? You are really getting worse!”My heart was beating faster and faster. I'm frightened that Kalvis might shout here and maybe someone might hear us. "Kalvis, don't make a scene here. Please, son?”The right side of his lips lifted while his eyes were looking at me like a tiger that is ready to tear his target. I raised him by myself but it feels like I don't know him anymore. "Your face is thick, dad. Telling me that seemed to be out of the supposed script. Am I really making a scene here? Me, dad? Really?”“Kalvis—”I saw how Veronne was shocked when Kalvis pointed at her, causing her to tremble. "Do not interfere with our conversation, woman. You are not part of this family! You better shut up if you don't want me to hurt your sensitive heart again!""Kalvis, I said, don't make a scene he
The couple of years after we buried his body at the cemetery passed, but the pain was still here with me. All the days we spent together and the nights we shared with each other were nothing but beautiful memories of two hearts that were once one. My tears crossed my pale face. As my hand lifted the glass I was holding, I suddenly smiled, looking at the city lights from the veranda. “Why can't I get drunk? ”I asked myself. In the years Marcov was gone, I was totally lost and nowhere to be found. I know we have kids I must take care of, but my eyes can't stand looking at them. Because they exactly got their looks after their father, Marcov, the man I loved the most. Dorothy and Amirah never left me. They cleaned the veranda where I messed around. They took care of my kids. And they were keeping me from seeing the good side of life, even though I am blind. Someone made me look beside me. It's his older son who really looks like him. He was not staying here anymore but gave me time
We decided to hold our quadruplet party here on some of the most authentic and beautiful beaches in the Philippines. Siargao is really the most visited place here. I heard from people who experienced this beautiful and mesmerizing paradise how accommodating the place is. I've read beautiful feedback from others. And their page got a ten-over-ten rating from the tourists. They sing happy birthdays to my children. I am totally out of appetite because of Margarette, the fake! After the short program, here comes the feast. A lot of food is placed on top of the tables. There are many Filipino delicacies on the menu. I just had puto, bibingka, and dinuguan. The sunset caught my attention. My heart is beating and aching as I am watching over it. Like the sunset, I am wishing that this agony I kept inside my heart would come to an end. My eyes are tired of shedding tears every night, and my mind is tired of having heavy thoughts over the days. I want everything to fall into place so I c
-Veronne-Carrying four angels inside my womb wasn't easy. It was tiring and made my body function less effective. But every time I heard their small cries asking for their milk, their comforts made me realize that everything was all worth it.The pain in my back and private parts when I gave birth to them was truly a nerve-wracking experience. But again, their smiles and their little laughs helped me define myself as a real woman. My aunt and cousin never destroy our family anymore. But Margarette was a total mess in my life. She was acting kind and made me believe that all the things I'd heard a few months ago were real, even though they were all part of her schemes. “Baby!” Marcov uttered. It was a second after I put my sons into their cribs. I looked at the white wall while thinking about how I was going to make Marcov believe me. I brought this up to him before, but he said that it was not real. Kalvis was protecting his wife, and my husband was protecting his son. I could
-Marcov- It's never easy to deal with a pregnant wife who is always changing her mind about everything. In addition to liking a certain thing, she would crave different things. She's been so picky right now, and what made me feel stupid was the weird thing she wanted me to do—not take a bath. Yes! It's really nasty, but I don't have a choice because if I go to the bathroom, I am only allowed to wash my face. “Marcov, come here! I want to smell you!” “Baby.” I was just calling her with my endearment for her, but her face was showing a disappointed face. I don't have another choice but to climb the bed and lay down with my head pillowing my hands. She then slowly laid down in my arms. She got closer to me and started to smell like she was smelling a cupcake that smelled so sweet. “Marcov. It's addictive!” “Baby, I really want to wash my body,” I said. “Ugh!” She suddenly punched my abdomen, and it made me run after my breath. It's impossible! I was really happy about my q
Kalvis was challenging me. Well, I will make sure that soon he will know the dirty plan of that woman. I admit to myself that I told him to accept her and try to love her, but never to be fooled by her scheme. Marcov followed me to the veranda, where I was drinking wine. He hugged me, and it made me feel calm.“Why are you here, baby? The night is cold.” “Nothing, Marcov. I am just thinking about something.”“Care to share?” I escaped from his arms and faced him. He took a goblet and poured his own drink into it. “Nothing important. You will soon know about this. Just wait.”“Lita mentioned that my son came here. Was he bothering you again? Tell me if he does.”“It's just a little misunderstanding, Marcov. Don't worry about it.” “Are you sure?” “Certain.” I smiled widely to remove the worry in his heart. He touched my face, and the warmth of his palm pushed me to close my eyes. I held his hand and slowly grabbed his hand until my lips could kiss his palm. “Make sure that no
Walking around inside the Greyford Empire made me feel indifferent. Before, I was just a hidden girlfriend of Marcov, but now I am treated so well and everyone praises me. “I knew it! I was really suspecting them to be lovers. But no one believes in me!”“Me too. I never doubted my suspicions! The way that Sir Marcov looks at Madame Veronne means the world!”“Correction, she seemed to be his universe!” “Hi, Madame Veronne! Good morning!” They greeted me. I smiled at them. The joy in their eyes seemed to be uncontrollable. They bowed to me many times. Before I arrived at the office, someone caught my attention. It's Kalvis. He just looked at me for a while and went in a separate direction.I was about to make another step when someone clapped behind me. It's Margarette. Her left brow was lifted while her eyes looked at me like she wanted to harm me. “Clap! Clap! Clap!” she said while clapping again. “You can't imagine that you really made it, right?” “Margarette, I did it! I did
-Veronne-I went to my mom, and he went directly to the company. I sighed when I remembered what he did.“Honey? How's the honeymoon? I am sure that it went well! So, am I saying that I am going to have a grandchild?” I smiled while we were in each other's embrace. “Mommy, I am not ready for that. Marcov needs me to support him in his business. You know that,” I said. “Wait, speaking of Marcov. Where is he?”“He went straight to the company. He needs to settle something. You know that his people won't be doing their jobs well if he is not around. Oh, mom. I remembered what he did earlier. He reported someone who just looked at me, and he was arrested!” My mom was surprised. She covered her mouth before she burst into laughter. Like, what the fuck? Why was she like this?“Oh! God! That's impossible!”“It's possible, mom! What was impossible? The most impossible thing here was your reaction? There's no reason to be happy about someone who was arrested for looking at another man's wi
-Marcov-We were both naked and had no space between our bodies. My member was working hard to reach her clit and make her moan like she wanted more of me. I couldn't afford to refuse the beauty that was possessed by her. She was beautiful but never like me, as she was underneath my body whispering the chants of love.“Oh, Marcov,” she said. I was looking at her face and trying to do my best to give her the best moment she will remember until the days when we were both old. My body pressed against hers. I slowly hung her right leg on my butt while digging to her depth.“Faster, Marcov! Faster!” “Uhhh.”I responded to her plea. I thrust faster than ever, feeling that the first legal sex we were sharing right now would never be compared before. This one feels so right, and this one would be a great memoir to keep in the bottom of our hearts. “Oh, Marcov! I can't take it anymore!” I pushed once, and she met my body. I could feel how her gate suffocated my dick. I am certain that she
Every woman dreams of being paired with a man who's oftentimes read the best-selling book of all time. It was a wonderful feeling that you were walking above the aisle while the man of my life was waiting until I arrived at where he was standing up. His eyes were nailed on me while I was heading in his direction. “Honey, I don't know what to feel right now. I am going to cry out loud out the happiness and sadness mixed inside my heart. God, baby. You are really a grown-up woman now, and I lost the chance to look at you while growing up, achieving your academic goal, and living the life of a woman that you want.” I stopped for a while and looked at my mother, who was guiding me when we were both in front of my groom. “By any chance, mommy, I never imagined walking down the aisle with you. But today, you proved that a mother is a mother, a woman who will always stand up and walk by her flower. Thank you for returning to my life and walking with me heading to my groom.” Tears fell fr
