Olivia was startled when she felt someone's presence. She got up from the floor and found Pedro staring at her. “Who is he?” He asked, pointing at Olivia's phone. Glancing down at her phone, Olivia was a little hesitant but decided to tell him anyway. “He's my older brother,” Olivia muttered and gripped the phone tightly. The day was a reminder of him, her parents told her it was his birthday. Pedro's eyes narrowed upon hearing Olivia. Did this mean she knew about her brother? “Where is he?” Pedro asked, wanting to know something. Olivia let out an exhalation and sat on the bed. Staring at the photos sent to her, she recalled what her parents told her about. “He died before I was even born,” Olivia replied after a while, her heart ached at such a cruel fate. She would have loved to see her older brother, but that didn't happen. Pedro was even more stunned. It seemed Ignacio Altamirano made sure to erase his son's existence. “I would have loved to see him, but fate didn't allow us…
It was always emotional whenever she came to pay tribute to her brother. No matter what, she felt obliged to see him. Occasionally whenever she was upset, she would come here and talk to him. Olivia always wondered what her life would have been like if her brother was around. Maybe her parents would have been alive. It was getting late, she said her goodbyes and prepared to leave when she spotted Pedro from afar with a man. They seemed to be having some sort of misunderstanding. Olivia took her purse and hurried to them. She sensed something wrong, especially when she saw Pedro's men pointing their guns at him. “What's going on here?” She asked coldly, and Pedro looked back at her. He seemed startled or was he caught off guard? “It's nothing, just a little misunderstanding with the man…let's go,” Pedro said softly and put the gun away. The entire time, my eyes were on the man with an eye patch. He was staring at me too. “Who is he?” I asked, referring to the man, something about
“I hate men like you, who think the world revolves around them,” Marcos said lazily while stripping off his coat. His sharp eyes shifted from a fuming Luciano to the chair he wanted to sit on.“Do you love her?” Marcos asked and tossed his coat away. His lazy gaze fell on Luciano, “do you care for her… are you willing to die for her?” Marcos fired Luciano with questions as he sat down and one of his men handed him a lit cigarette, crossed his leg over the other and took a long sniff and puffed out the air. Luciano's expression darkened“Whoever you are… give me back what you took, I'm not someone you can cross,” Luciano remarked coldly, his eyes sharp like a blade. Marcos let out a chuckle and concentrated on his cigarette “The woman you killed, the woman whose baby you ripped out of her womb with your bare hands,” Marcos said with a sinister smirk and puffed out more smoke. Luciano was irritated as he struggled to get free; however, the men held him down“Such a useless man, who can
Olivia was left in a daze. She asked the doctor to cross-check her. She could be wrong, how on earth did she get pregnant when she was unable to? She took tests, and they told her the miscarriage she suffered made her not have a child“How is that possible, if you are not convinced… you can come to my clinic and I can run some tests on you,” the doctor said and handed her card. Olivia was hesitant to take it, but did so anyway. This was shocking news. “Please take care of yourself… I'll prescribe some medication for you as well as write down a healthy diet for you to follow,” the doctor said while jolting down something in her notebook. Olivia's gaze lowered to her stomach, this felt like a dream. So unreal that she couldn't hide her happiness…did a miracle happen.“Have this, you can come to my office if you need anything,” the doctor added after a while, Olivia regained her senses and nodded. The doctor smiled and excused herself. After packing her belongings, Olivia wanted to walk
“Everything is just a game to you…hahaha, I was a fool,” Olivia cried out in between sarcastic chuckles. Tears flowed from her eyes and dried up, the pain in her chest was unbearable. The fact that she trusted him. After another man deceived her. She was so naive to trust a man after all.“That's not true… you are special to me… you mean the world to me,” Pedro muttered as he snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her close to him, Olivia struggled to get away from him. He was a liar, he hurt her. “To hell with your care… you've never cared about me…not even once, to you, I'm just a toy you saved from dying, so you can use it as you want!” Olivia spat out while hitting him on the chest, he tightened his grip around her and attempted to kiss her. She was hurting inside, and it was because of him. He couldn't stand to see her upset. Yes, a way a liar, but he had his reasons for doing so.“I can explain, there are things… I…”“I'm done here, I don't want to be here or anywhere near y
After, Ira and Gabby left in the middle of the night. Sydney had made sure the house doors were locked, including the windows. Olivia had woken up and eaten something when she fell asleep again. It seemed the sedative the doctor had given her earlier was working wonders. Her friend was sick, she needed a break from everything. Including the man who she was beginning to love. “You are unlucky when it comes to love…just like me…maybe it's the reason we are friends,” Sydney said helplessly and covered Olivia with another warm blanket. It was cold, mainly because the house was near the mountains and a lake. After a while of talking to Olivia about love. Sydney left the room to get some sleep. Even if it was nearly morning. But she could get a few hours of sleep, enough to think about how to help Olivia. Possibly by morning. She would tell her exactly what was happening. Sydney pushed the bedroom door open. This room used to belong to Olivia's brother. She decided to sleep here for the
Sydney was woken up by wet lips ravishing her back. A soft moan escaped her lips as she struggled to open her eyes.She was lying on her belly supporting her head with folded arms, while Marcos was on top of her misbehaving.“Good morning,” she mumbled as she lifted her head, the man was still having his way. Even when she was fully awake.“Did I tell you… how beautiful you are? '' the man whispered as she turned around and lay on her back. Both were still naked, she could feel his hard member brushing on her thigh as he lowered to her chest and kissed her for a while. Sydney cupped his face and pulled him closer to her. It was early in the morning, the sun was out, carried by the cold breeze. Sydney smiled as she stole a kiss before pulling away from Marcos. He shivered when she traced her hand from his forehead down his cheek and his chin. His eyes closed for a while, as if trying to feel her warmth circulating through him.“I told you to leave early,” she muttered when he lowered hi
“It's a puppy,” Olivia said in disbelief when they came out of the room and found a puppy struggling to get up. The large vase had fallen over it, trapping it completely.“See, it's just the neighbor's dog, probably,” Sydney said, feeling relieved. It turned out her hot man was smart after all. It looked like Marcos wanted to see Olivia. Sydney glanced around the passageway. But Marcos was nowhere to be seen.“Aww, what a pretty little thing…. Are you hurt, come let's get you an ice pack,” Olivia said, cradling the helpless puppy in her arms and smiled as she left from there and headed to the kitchen, Sydney glanced back toward Marco's old room and the man came out and winked at her?“Get back in there,” she whispered through gritted teeth, and ran after Olivia? If anyone saw him acting like a child, they would laugh. Their ruthless boss was mischievous.“So, we didn't finish talking…have you told him about the baby?” Sydney said with her mouthful while making some omelets. Olivia was
