This was the second day Katrina stayed at Eric's house after he found out the truth. Eric kept on showering her with so much love and attention and asking her not to leave.Katrina was tempted not to leave but her sister called earlier and asked her to fulfill her promise and agreement. Katrina had no choice but to go home.�Maureen's POVEven after knowing the truth, Eric still allowed Kat to stay in his house. He still loves her and even begged her not to leave.He publicly professed his love to her defiling his father at the welcome back party he threw for her. Even with Molly in the picture, he still fought for Kat's love.He was quick to discard me when Molly came into the picture. He didn't put on a fight to keep me. All he said was "I'm sorry Maureen, I can't go against my dad ". Then he walked out leaving me crying bitterly in the hotel room.I haven't gotten over him yet so seeing how much he loves my sister hurt me alot. But there are really happy together.Should I let them
Katrina switched off her phone and removed the Sim card after sending the text to Eric. She threw the Sim card and tucked her phone away in a drawer. She won't be using it now."I'm so sorry Eric. I hope you forgive me" Katrina apologized inwardly.She was too tired to do anything. Then she remembered Laura. Laura needs to know she's back."Maureen, can I borrow your phone? I need to call Laura " Katrina said."What about yours? " Maureen asked from the kitchen.She was preparing dinner for the both of them."I switched it off," Katrina replied."Ooh.... Okayy " Maureen said in an understanding tone."Come and take it, " she said to Katrina. Katrina collected the phone from her then sat back on the bed and called Laura.**** Eric still sat on the floor in Kat's room still taking in what just happened. He couldn't believe she's gone.He called her number but her phone was switched off."Damn it Kat! Don't do this" Eric screamed.He needed to call his mom. He dialed her number and s
Eric sat in the sitting room in deep thoughts. His mom had left already, she made breakfast for him and ensured he was okay before she left.She didn't want to leave, Eric had to convince her that he was really okay before she left.He wasn't not going to work today and he was not sure he would be going anytime soon. He needs to look for Katrina.Eric tried to remember Katrina and his conversations to see if she mentioned where she's from or her hometown in any of them.He has tried tracking her phone to find out her location but he couldn't because her phone was switched off."Why can't I remember anything? " He said, scattering his hair."Come on Eric. You need to remember something " He chided himself.Then suddenly he remembered. Katrina once told him she's from Sweetgrass."Tom, Alex," he called out."Sir" they chorused and came in to meet him."How long will it take us to get to Sweetgrass? " Eric asked."Sweetgrass? " Tom asked."Why Sweetgrass? " Alex asked."Answer me," Eric
Katrina was at Laura's house. They were watching a funny movie right now, it used to be Katrina's favorite movie.Laura has been trying to cheer Katrina up since she came over. Laura was always saying something funny if she noticed that Katrina was already deep in thought. When Laura saw it wasn't helping, she suggested they watch the movie.Before Katrina came to Laura's house, she already went in search of a job in Sweetgrass. She could do anything at all including being a nanny for the sick as long as it makes her busy enough not to think of Eric. Katrina misses him so much but she thinks it's best she leaves him. Her sister was still in love with him. She had confirmed it when she came home. Until Maureen gives her the permission to be with Eric, she's not going back to Eric. Katrina was forfeiting her happiness for Maureen's sake. But Maureen was worth it, she's been a nice and wonderful sister to her.She remembered when she was too afraid to stand up for herself among her m
Maureen was in the bathroom brushing her teeth. Katrina came out from the bathroom after brushing her teeth. She was about to sit on the bed when she heard a knock on the door."Katrina, check who's at the door, " Maureen said."Okay" Katrina replied."Coming " Katrina said aloud.She walked towards the door and opened it. She moved back in shock when she saw Eric."Eric" Katrina called."Katrina, " Eric said."Katrina " he screamed and hugged her tight."Eric, what are you doing here? " Katrina asked in surprise."How did you find me here? How did you know I was here? " She asked."Katrina, I miss you so much," Eric replied.Katrina looked behind him and saw Tom and Alex standing behind him."Katrina, who's that? " Maureen asked from the bathroom."It's Eric, " Katrina replied."Eric? What's he doing here again? " Maureen asked herself. She hurriedly washed her face as she was through with brushing, then she went out into the room to meet Kat and Eric."Eric, why are you here? Why
"You must be happy now that Katrina is gone. She left me because of you, " Maureen said. These words sounded like bomb in Eric's ears."What do you mean by that? "Eric asked, not wanting to believe what he had just heard."Katrina is gone? " Hevasked."Here, read this, " Maureen said, giving him a note to read.He read it and staggered back in shock."She's gone? She left me? " He asked no one in particular."She did and it's because of you! "Maureen screamed."You must be joking. I know she's in there hiding somewhere " Eric said and stepped into the room. Tom and Alex followed him, closing the door behind them."I'm telling the truth. My sister is gone and I don't know where she's right now. She didn't tell me where she was going and she did that to avoid you chasing after her" Maureen said.The tears running down her cheeks made Eric realize she was telling the truth."Katrina " he called in pain. Tears began rolling down his cheeks."You caused it! " Maureen screamed."Really? "E
"Fasten your seat belt. The plane is about to land" the hostess announced and Katrina did so.She's finally arrived in Korea. The plane landed and everyone came down.Katrina was going to Seoul but she didn't even know how to get there.She doesn't know anyone here, she also didn't know anywhere here. She came to Korea because it's the only place Eric can't find her.He once told her that the last place he would ever travel to was Korea. He doesn't like Korea.She couldn't go to any other country because he has connections in so many countries like England, Australia, China, Japan and the rest. He could easily find her if she went to any of the countries and would come after her, which was the last thing she wanted.Katrina was avoiding Eric because she didn't want to keep hurting him. So she decided to be a coward and run from her problems instead of facing it. She's running away! Katrina stared around the airport confused. She doesn't know how to speak the Korean language.S
Katrina went inside the house with Hae Soo. The inner part of the house was so beautiful, she's really rich. The servants were standing on a line neatly waiting for them to come in."Welcome back young madam " they greeted again bowing their heads."Thank you. I want to introduce someone to you all" Hae Soo said."This is Katrina Argos. From now henceforth, she's my sister and I want you all to treat her with the same respect you treat me. You must obey every of her commands without complaint and remain humble to her. Do I make myself clear? " she asked."Yes Ma'am" they replied bowing their heads. Katrina was speechless."You may leave now," Hae Soo said."Why did you do that? " Katrina asked after the servants left."Nothing. I told you I want you to be the sister I never had " she said and sat down on a couch.Katrina sat down on another couch facing her."But you don't really know me," she said."Maybe, maybe not. It doesn't matter, we can get to know each other better, " Hae Soo
"Daniel, Daniella, where are you both?" Eric screamed.Silence!There was no response.Eric was sure the children were up to some mischief."I think I know what will bring them out"Katrina said laughing."And that's?" Eric asked, he was laughing too."Just hold on" Katrina said.Then she used her highest voice to scream."Kids, your chocolate cake is ready" Minutes later, Daniel and Daniella creeped out of wherever they've been hiding."Mummy, where's it?" They chorused happily."Gotcha" Eric screamed."Where have you been hiding?" Katrina asked smiling."Under there" Daniella said"Silly you. Why were you hiding?" Katrina asked."Daniel suggested we hide" Daniella repliedIt's just for fun daddy" Daniel defended."Now, where's our cake?" Daniella asked."No cake. I said that just to make you two come out. Your dad was tired of looking for you both" Katrina explained."You fooled us" the kids said and pouted sadly."Wanna join me in baking your chocolate cake?" Katrina asked."Yes, y
"What!! " Katrina screamed as she sat up. She watched Maureen and Rachel giggle."It's your wedding day," Rachel screamed."You're getting married today " Maureen said happily."Oh my " Katrina said, jumping out of the bed. She totally forgot.She had been anticipating today and now that it's finally here, she forgot about it."Where is Eric? " She asked."Hellooooo... Forgotten so soon? " Maureen asked."Eric, David and the other guys are in Eric's family house. They're are getting ready there. While the ladies are to use here to get ready " Rachel explained."Yeah, that's true" Katrina said, suddenly recalling."I'm nervous " she confessed."Don't be.

Congratulations baby girl " Maureen said."Thank you " Katrina replied hugging Maureen. Rachel joined in the hug, the three of them remained that way for a while befor
Katrina woke up the next day feeling so happy and fulfilled.Maureen was still sleeping beside her, so Katrina came down gently from the bed. She didn't want to wake Maureen. She walked to the bathroom, opened the door and went in.She sat on the WC and peed. After she was done peeing, she walked straight to the big mirror and stared at herself.Katrina noticed she was looking so radiant right now. One look at her and you could tell she's feeling fulfilled.Why won't she be?She's about to be Eric's wife. She's soon going to be called Mrs Katrina Salmadiego."Mrs Katrina Salmadiego " Katrina called out loud."Mrs Katrina Salmadiego " she repeated and laughed.The name sounds cute on her lips. She couldn't help blushing."Silly girl. You need to pull yourself together " she said, still laughing. Katrina walked out of the bathroom and saw Maureen sitting on the bed. She's awake now."Heyy sis" Katrina called."Morning Sis " Maureen replied."Who were you talking to? " Maureen asked.
"Will you marry me, Katrina Argos? " Eric asked, going down on his knees, with a ring on his palm.Katrina's eyes widened, it almost popped out of its sockets in shock and surprise.Eric was asking her to marry him.. In the presence of everyone!The reporters and journalists wasted no time in capturing this moment. Camera light flashed and the audience started screaming and wowing."Say yes " they screamed."Wow" Maureen said behind Katrina.Katrina still stared at Eric. She was too overwhelmed to speak."Hellooooo... Young lady, are you going to keep me kneeling, my knee is starting to hurt " Eric said and pouted in a cute childish way.Katrina smiled and nodded her head."Yes, yess, yesss, yessss, yesssss" she screamed happily. Eric slipped the ring into Katrina's third finger and then stood up to embrace her. He carried her and swirled her around laughing happily."Thank you Katrina. You don't know how happy I am right now. You've made me the happiest man on earth right now " Eri
Katrina was still at Eric's family house. It's late already but she didn't mind. She's enjoying her stay here.Eric and his parents with Katrina were all having dinner together. They ate and discussed a lot of things, Eric, his mom, his dad and Katrina.Eric's dad forgave Katrina. He made her promise not to hurt his son again and gave her a warm hug."Hmmm, Eric. You've been laughing so hard tonight. I've missed seeing you laugh this way, but thanks to Katrina here, you're over happy tonight " Eric's Mom said."He really missed her," his Dad chipped in."I know right. He was acting like he wasn't affected whenever we were around him, but deep down I knew he was hurting, " Mrs Salmadiego said."He was trying to be a man for daddy," Mr Paul added in a teasing tone."True, but while alone. He was a cry baby for Katrina, " Mrs Salmadiego said and laughed."Mommm.... Dadddd, stop embarrassing me" Eric whined. He gave a sad baby face that got them all laughing."I'm sorry son " Mr Paul said
Katrina got down from her bed the next morning.She slept with ease last night knowing her sister was on her side this time.She's going to see Eric's mom today. She needs to talk to her, only she can persuade Eric to forgive her. Katrina went into the bathroom to brush her mouth. Maureen was still sleeping on the bed.She came out from the bathroom and walked straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.--------------- Katrina locked the door after coming out of the house. Maureen left already for work. Katrina had told Maureen of her plans and she agreed.Katrina's on her way to see Eric's mom. She walked to a junction where she saw a cab. She stopped the cab, told him where she was going and entered.The journey to California is going to take up to three hours or less, if there was no traffic.-------Finally, Katrina got to Mrs Salmadiego's house. She paid the driver his fee and he left. Katry knocked on the gate, the gatekeeper opened the gate and saw her standing there."
Eric's phone rang as he sat on his seat in the plane. He checked the caller and he saw it was his mom.He stared at his phone for a while and watched it ring, deciding if to answer the call or not.He finally answered the call."Eric, what's the meaning of the stunt you pulled at the airport? ``His Mom asked without waiting for him to greet her."Mom, so you are aware," Eric said."Why not! It's everywhere on social media. Check your damn phone! " his mom screamed."Hey mom, calm down. You don't need to get angry" Eric said."Why won't I get angry? I didn't raise you up to be like this. You embarrassed her in front of everyone! People are already making fun of her" Mrs Salmadiego said angrily."I didn't mean to mom" Eric replied."Oh, shut up. You asked her to do that public apology right? " she asked."Yeah," Eric replied."Then she did it. She swallowed her pride and apologized to you in the presence of everyone. You shouldn't have walked away " she said."Katrina's public embarrass
"What the hell?" Katrina screamed.She wasn't expecting so many people. How was she going to do this?But why are there so many people?She's very sure it's not all that's entering the plane. They're obviously people who came to see Eric."But how did they know Eric was here in Korea and is leaving for California today, and by this time? " Katrina asked herself.It can only mean a thing. Eric pulled this crowd here!He did this to scare her off but she's never giving up. She's truly going to fight for his love this time.Katrina raised her head high and prepared herself."Are you sure you can do this? The people here are much" Rachel whispered. Katrina had totally forgotten that Rachel came with me. She nodded her head in response to Rachel's question."I need to call my bodyguards. I need them now, I wasn't expecting this crowd" Rachel said and Katrina nodded.Rachel quickly dialed a number unknown to Katrina and within minutes, the call got connected. The person answered the call.
Katrina stood waiting while the receptionist talked to Eric on the phone. The receptionist disconnected the call and faced her."I'm sorry, but he said he doesn't want to see you, " she told Katrina."What! You are sure he heard my name right? " Katrina asked."Yes Miss. He repeated your name to confirm if it's really you" the receptionist said."I really need to see him. Please call him again, let me speak with him this time" Katrin pleaded."I'm sorry Miss, but I can't do that, " the receptionist said. Katrina felt sad and dejected. She walked to a seat and sat down burying her head in her hands.After some minutes, the receptionist's phone rang and Katrina looked up to see her answer the call."Sir Eric" she called and Katrina became alert. She stood up quickly and walked over to her."Is she still there? " Katrina heard Eric ask through the phone."Yes Sir. She's right here, " the receptionist replied."Okay, let her in, " Eric said and disconnected."You can go in. His room is r
