No, I had an one night stand with a stranger, it’s safe to say my kids don’t have a father,” She told him with a shaky voice, Miguel was taken aback by her words.He started blaming himself for popping such sensitive matters, “Er,, I’m sorry for rubbing salt over your wound, I shouldn’t have asked,” He pleaded but Adriana shook her head.She cleanse her tears, “It’s not your fault and I’m glad I told someone at last, you’d be the second person I told my story, I feel like a burden was lifted off my chest,” She whimpered and Miguel pressed his lips against each other.“I’m glad you felt much at ease, trust me Adriana, I’m here for you and you can always confide in me whenever you’re bothered,” He confidently said carefully.Adriana found comfort in his words that she started tearing up, “Gosh, why am I crying so much tonight? Holy cow, this is embarrassing,” She rambled letting out a little laugh.Miguel passed tissues to her, “It’s fine baby girl, Cry all your hearts out, I’m here for
Adriana came out of the room, her hair neatly packed and her eyes has come down, she had just finished the hangover tea, her heart jumped when the first person that came to her view was Miguel, he was paying with her kids.She cleared her throat announcing her presence, “Err, good morning,” she greeted briefly and went to the kitchen to drop the cup, she came back.“Morning mummy!” Her kids chorused giggling.“Hope you slept well?” She asked and they all nod. “Mummy, Mr Miguel is so nice! He promised to get all of us bicycles, that’s so nice of him!” Scott chipped in with great elasticity. Adriana let out a nervous smile and looked at Miguel, “Really? T-thank you,” She muttered avoiding his eye contact.“It’s nothing Adriana,” He simply said and took his suit, he sprang up from his seat and faced the kids, “Kids? I need to leave now, your bicycles will arrive in a day,” He told them.“Yeahh! Thank you so much, We’d be getting our bicycles finally!” The three of them chorused happily
(25TH AUGUST 2022- MFR Tenth Anniversary.)The whole hall was buzzing with slow rich music, influential people started coming in, some in their private jet while some came in their expensive cars, In the process, a white Lamborghini car stopped at the front of the hall and Jessica came out.She adjusted her yellow shining dress and smiled, “Why do I get so excited on this day? Hm, it’s a special occasion,” She mumbled and went inside.“Jessica Alberto, right?” Someone called and she turned to meet some of her wealthy friends back in school.“Oh my goodness! Leslie? Is that you?” Jessica giggles as she fondly hugs the lady at her front.They pulled back from the hug, “Are you here to celebrate with Miguel?” Jessica asked while the lady nod sipping from the glass of champagne on her hand.She gulp down little, “Yes. You know my dad had 2% of shares in his father’s company so I got the privilege to attend,” Leslie replied and pressed her lips against each other.“Oh, true, anyways I’m ju
Jessica walked out of the party anxiously, she went to the guy she’s been calling, she met him at balcony, smoking. “Do you think it’s right to smoke at this crucial moment!” Jessica yelled slapping the cigarette away from his mouth.“Chill, I bet those guys are treating that lady’s fuck up. Jessica, why are you so worried?” The man told her, picking another cigarette from the pack.“If it doesn’t go as we planned, I’m really doomed! I won’t get this opportunity again!” She groans and tightened her fist.“Jessica-““Wait, isn’t that Miguel?” Jessica suddenly cut him off, “Where is he going?” She muttered as Miguel head to the storage room.“What’s your business with him?”“Well, I need to find out where’s going! Shut it and watch out for me!” With that she followed Miguel behind quietly.Adrianna opened her eyes weakly, she quickly did a search of the whole place, she’s in an unfamiliar place, “w-where is this?” She asked and that made Fred looked at her.He grin widely, “Oh my, Our p
Miguel stormed out angrily, he loosened his tie and was about getting back into the hall when he came across Jessica, “M-Miguel?” She called.Miguel rolled his eyes, “What is it Jessica?” He growl calmly, Jessica breathed in.“What I heard can’t be true? That,,, that wench can’t be your baby mama right?” She asked anxiously and Miguel took a step closer to her.“Believe it or not Jessica, that lady is not my baby mama,” He said firmly and Jessica secretly smiled. “But, That doesn’t give you the right to call her wench, You’re in no position to call her that!” He snapped Jessica narrowed her eyes, “What’s that for? Why are you defending that lady when she’s obviously deceiving you? I heard you’re firing her, isn’t it?” Jessica inquired.“It’s none of your business, Excuse me,” with that Miguel left.Jessica scoffed, “Whether you like it or not, Miguel. You will forever hate Adrianna,” She muttered with a smirk and left the scene as well.“Where did it all go wrong! I thought this is g
(The following day)Adriana had quickly left the house to check the wristwatch in Miguel’s secret room, “I won’t believe all of this if I don’t confirm that wristwatch, that wristwatch is the only evidence,” she kept assuring herself hoping it wasn’t what she’s thinking.She pressed the button under Miguel’s desk, the door to the secret room opened and she walked in, rushing over to the wristwatch glass stand. Her heart leaped when she saw the wristwatch once again.What Fred told them the other night was true, Miguel,,,,Miguel is the father of her kids.“How,,how could this be? How-“ Those tears she has been holding back since yesterday night started falling nonstop, she fell on her knees “I think it’s high time I change the passcode of this room, you’re beginning to misuse the opportunity,” Adriana suddenly heard his voice behind him, she sprang up on her feet immediately.She avoided his gaze, batting away her tears. “Hmm, Good-morning sir,” She greeted.Miguel scoffed,
***Adriana waited till it was dawn before dragging her feet back home, she’s cried her eyes out and all she needed for now was comfort.She walked into the house, “Mummy!” Her kids shrieked as soon they sight her walking in.Dora was cooking for the kids but noticed the look on Adriana as well, “Hey, you’re back?” She asked but Adriana wasn’t listening, instead, she went into her room.Skyler pouted, “Is mummy sad? Why is she looking so sad?” The little boy asked and they all looked at Dora waiting for an answer.Dora understood the look but shrug her shoulders, “Er….I’m not sure but I know she will be fine. You know your mummy is the strong one, right?” Dora assured the kids and they nod.They went back to what they were doing before Adriana came in, Dora breathed out and halted on what she was doing, looking at Adriana’s room.“I hope she’s fine,” She breathed.Adriana stumbled upon her bed and started crying once again, “He’s a bad jerk, I can’t believe I fell in love with a jerk!
(The Following Day)Adriana dish out the pasta into 4 plates, she placed it on the table then she started frying something else.Dora walked out of her room, yarning but her face lightens up when she saw Adriana at the kitchen, “Oh, Adriana? Good morning,” Dora told her while Adriana smiled at her.“Morning, are the kids still asleep?” She asked and Dora nod slowly looking at the delicious pasta placed on the table, she licked her lips.“Hmm, you made this? Wow, I can’t wait to start eating it,” Dora beamed and she quickly pull out chair and sat.“No, no, Go and brush your teeth before you start eating Dora, The food isn’t running away,” Adriana persisted, Dora grumbled as she sprang up going to the bathroom.Dora barely got to the bathroom door when Adriana called, “Dora?” Dora turned “Hm?” Adriana dropped her apron and went closer to her, “I’m sorry about last night, I let my feelings get the best of me. I’m sorry for yelling at you last night,” She instantly apologized with her

I’d be happy to have you all at my home,“ Mrs Alberto asked and it took some minutes before Adriana answered.“Er…I don’t want your husband to feel uncomfortable, you know he lost a daughter and I think he knew that’s because of me, I-““Douglas is not someone like that, I know who I married so I’m sure, he will accept you as his daughter but if you don’t want to move
****One week Later****Adriana opened the door to Mrs Alberto’s room, she dropped the fruits she got from the market on the desk, “Mom, the doctors said avocado and bananas are good for you,” She muttered softly to her mom who was still unconscious.She pulled out a chair and sat, she took her hand into hers and pat on it gently, “I know you can do it mom, It’s been a week since you’re been on that bed, please,,” Adriana sniffs preventing tears from falling.Adriana wanted to let go of her hand but it held her back instead and one of her fingers moved, Adriana quickly looked at her mom who was still struggling to open her eyes.When she finally did, her eyes met with Adriana’s teary eyes. “Mom! Thank you!” She exclaimed.Few minutes later, “Can she now walk on her own, talk, eat now?” Adriana asked the doctor in charge glancing back at her mother, who was staring at the window.“Don’t worry Ms Adriana, She responded to treatment while she was still in coma and there’s possibility of h
*** Jessica brows knitted, she couldn’t wrap a finger around it and the same goes for Adriana, “What the fuck are you talking about Mom? Julia is dead!” Jessica shrilled. Mrs Alberto shook her head and waved the DNA test results in her hand, she started walking closer to Jessica, “I don’t know why you lied about that to me but I have taken the right way to amend this between you two,” She breathed. Jessica glowered, “ What the fuck are you trying to say mom? Don’t tell me….” Jessica shook her head and averted her gaze at Adriana. “Yes, Adriana is your blood sister,” Mrs Alberto announced making the gun with Jessica almost break into pieces and looking lost. The corner of Adriana’s eyes crinkled, “Can, Can, someone tell me what’s going on here? Why am I Jessica’s sister?” Adriana asked croakily Then Mrs Alberto walked to Adriana, “I’m sorry child, I’m sorry I came late for you. You’re my daughter and dropped you with Gina and her husband, I’m sorry for abandoning you,” She g
[TWO DAYS LATER]“Guess what kids?” Miguel asked his kids as he drops a plate of pancakes and fruit juice.“Just tell it to us already, Daddy,” Scott pouted taking a slice from the pancake.“Can’t you at least guess?” He teased while the kids shook their heads.“No Daddy, all we can think about is the pancakes on our table,” Scarlett whined, Miguel chuckles.“Okay, okay, I’m taking to the amusement park after you’re done eating, isn’t that exciting?” He finally spilled the bean.“Yayhhhh! That’s going to be fun, we should finish this food quickly,” Skyler suggested happily and the other two followed him, they started rushing their foods.“Take it easy, don’t let that food choke you. The amusement park isn’t running away?” Miguel cautioned them but none of them were listening to him.Adriana walked in from the balcony, “Miguel?” She called diverting Miguel’s attention to her.“Yes, my darling?” Miguel answered her.“Dora just called me, she said she’s coming over for a visit. I don’t t
The Alberto’s)Jessica paced to and fro of her room as she kept starting at pictures and news on her social media page, her anger infuriated when she saw the hashtag. #How the rich heir of Fernandez broke into a wedding to claim his love# “Miguel! After all I have done for you? I did everything to love me! How dare you go back to that bitch?! Arghh!” Jessica screamed and threw the picture on her bed.She went to her other phone and dialed a number which picked up after the first ring, “I need backups and guns, Adriana has passed her boundaries and it’s time to end it for her,” with that she dropped the call.Jessica moved to the wide mirror in her room, her smirk could tear down the whole house, “I won’t spare you too, Miguel. If I can’t get you then no one, no one can have you,” She growl with gritted teeth.She walked into the bathroom and turn on the shower.Mrs Alberto standing behind the door that was left half opened gasped, her aim was to challenge Jessica for lying to her ab

Will you like to see one of your kids gone?!” Gilbert suddenly yelled, the guests gasped.“Oh my, is he threatening the bride?”“What a selfish man! Why is he being bitter?”People started murmuring making Gilbert realize the mistake he had just made. Miguel scoffed and move closer to Gilbert, “Looks like you just dug your own grave,” He whispered with a smirk.Gilbert gritted his teeth and his face changed to a cold one while Miguel took the ring on Adriana’s index finger and threw it at his face.“If you know what’s best for you Gilbert, don’t show yourself around me ever again. You ruined our friendship the day you took Adriana forcefully, adios!” Miguel told him.Miguel looked at Adriana who was staring at Miguel the whole time

I’m a father,” Miguel muttered to himself with his cheeks turning red.“I should have done this long time ago Adriana, I’m coming to get you Adriana,” He whispered then took out his phone and dialed her number.“The person you’re trying to call is unavailable—“ that was the response he keeps getting after trying it so many time.“Humph, that wedding can’t happen,” Miguel told himself then walked out of the hospital premises.

Mummy? Will Aunt Dora visit us here? It’s been long I saw her,” The little girl added making Adriana shrugs her shoulders.“I’m sure she will come around, you know how busy she gets with her work right? Don’t you worry,” Adriana answered.“Scarlett? Your favorite cartoon is about to begin,” Scott shouted from the living room and Scarlett sprang up on her feet running to the living room.Adriana dropped the knife and picked her phone, “It’s been two weeks since Dora called, is she mad at me? Humph, whatever. I’m sure she’s okay,” With that she dropped the phone and continue cooking.Few minutes later, the food was ready and she dished it on a plate. “Kids?” The called on h
