Good ReasoningDalawang araw ring pinagpaginga ni Hugo si Devi sa Villa. Hugo did not allow Devi to go out. Hindi rin niya nito pinahaharap sa kanyang laptop, he contacted Alice and informed her not to disturb her.Devi protests but still, si Hugo pa rin ang nasunod sa lahat. That's why Devi feels bored but she still complies."Mr. Ivanov, I want to go to my parent's company today," Devi said while eating breakfast with Hugo.Hugo frowned. "What are you going to do there?"Devi blinks her eyes. "Um... w-wala lang. Gusto ko lang bisitahin ang company na pinagpagurang iunlad noon ni mommy."Of course, Hugo knew why Devi was going there. Alam na alam rin niya ang plano nito. Hugo wiped his mouth on the table napkin."Do you want me to accompany you?" tanong ni Hugo.Devi shook her head. "No. I mean, no need."Hugo narrowed his eyes. "May itinatago ka ba sa akin?""W-wala. Ano naman ang itatago ko sayo?""Really?"Devi blinked her eyes. She wiped her mouth as she shook her head. "Yes, wala
Eldest DaughterPatingin-tingin si Cody kay Devi habang nagmamaneho patungo sa address ng Miller Company.May matalas na pakiramdam si Devi kaya ramdam agad niya iyon. "Come on, tell me if you have something to tell,""H-Huh?" nagtatakang napasulyap si Cody sa kanya ng huminto ito sa pagmamaneho dahil sa traffic light."What?"Cody was very hesitant. "May sasabihin sana ako sa'yo ma'am, pero huwag mo sabihin kay Boss na nabanggit ko sa inyo.""Okay.""Nahuli na ho yung taong bumabangga sa atin noong nakaraang linggo. Dalawa silang killer. Patay na."Kumunot ang noo ni Devi. "Really?" tumango si Cody. "How do they die?""Boss shot them after his cruel interrogation." sagot ni Cody.Biglang natahimik si Devi. In-imagine niya kung paano ang ginawang interogasyon ni Hugo. She remembered Hugo telling her if someone hurt her or did something bad to her, mananagot sa kanya. And also, he said he didn't show mercy.'Indeed, cruel.' Devi thought."Ma'am, sorry. Sana pala hindi ko na sinabi sayo.
Mocking Devi's ManEveryone looks at each other in shock. Napatingin na patanong rin ang lahat kay Favio Miller.Favio Miller cleared his throat. "Everyone, let's welcome my daughter, Devi." wika ni Favio.Devi raised her eyebrows. Hinila niya ang isang upuan at naupong magisa sa pinaka harapan ng lahat. She sat like a lazy white cat in front of everyone. "Well... Father, I am very curious, why didn't you invite me to this important meeting? Am I not invited here? At sino ang uupo sa upuan ko, si Dalia ba?"Sinulyapan ni Devi ang 2 empty chairs. It was for her and the third biggest shareholder of the Miller Company. Sa pagsisiyasat niya, ito yung taong nakabili ng 15%. The name and details are very confidential and sealed. Kahit ang kanyang ama ay hindi nalaman kung sino itong taong nagmamay-ari niyon.Biglang nahiya ang ama niya sa lahat ng higher-ups. Dahil ang sinabi ni Favio sa mga ito ay wala pa sa Kana City ang kanyang anak. At ang sabi rin nito ay hinayaan na nito ang kanyang sh
Vip VisitorCody was about to retort but Devi stopped him. Namumula sa galit naman na nagtimpi si Cody sa tabi ni Devi.Devi smirks. "It's fine," Devi said to Cody saka siya galit na humarap kay Dalia. Hindi niya gusto ang tabas ng mga dila nito paukol kay Hugo."Kung isa man siyang palamunin ko, why not. As long as I work for it walang problema na papalamunin ko lang siya sa buong buhay na magsasama kaming dalawa. Lustayin man niya at magpakasasa sa mayroon ako, sure. As long as it's mine it's also his. Kaya walang problema sa akin na angkinin niya ang lahat sa akin. It's my choice."Cody was speechless by Devi's words. Napasulyap siya sa naka on-call na mobile phone niya. His boss is on the line. Lahat ng paguusap simula pagpasok nila sa Conference room ay naririnig ng kanyang boss sa kabilang linya."Are you insane? Nasaan ang utak mo? Pumulot ka lang ng isang lalaking walang kwenta at isang palamunin! I cannot accept it!""Dad. Ako ang makikisama sa lalaking pinili ko. Even if he i
My WifeBiglang napatayo ang lahat at yumuko na bumati sa pagpasok ng isang Hugo Ivanov na kasunod si Boris. Devi's father also got up from his chair.Dalia was starstruck by Hugo's appearance.Devi stays still, nakita ng lahat ang naglalarong ngisi sa labi nito.Dalia frowned. "Hey, why are you still sitting there, Devi? Hindi ka ba marunong magbigay galang sa vip visitor and shareholder ng Miller Company? Look, Dad!""Devi, stand up!" Favio shout.Hugo's face turned dark as he approached Devi's side. He's furious about the way they ordered Devi.Cody and Boris looked at each other and shook their heads. They both knew, pinakaayaw ng Master nila ang sigaw-sigawan at ipahiya si Devi mismo sa harap niya.Devi smirked, sat straight, and sighed. "Alright, alrightā""Sit still," Hugo gently said and stopped Devi on her shoulder.Devi obeyed and looked up at Hugo with a smile. "Hey, good morning, Mr. Ivanov."All the people saw how gentle Hugo Ivanov looked at Devine Miller."Why are you si
The New OwnerAll the stockholders were shivering in fear. Kilala nila ang isang Hugo Ivanov. He can strike smoothly and leave you in hell with nothing.Wala pa naman silang naging sagot sa tanong ni Devi kanina dahil sa nakakabiglang pagpasok nito sa eksena. All of them did not expect the turn of events.Ang akala ng lahat ay totoong walang kwenta ang fiancƩ ni Devi. Iyon pala ay isang napakamakapangyarihang tao ito. Devi did not show off what she had as a trump card.Hindi makapaniwala si Favio at Dalia sa swerteng dumating sa buhay ni Devi. Dalia also cannot believe it. Ang isang Devi na itinakwil ng daddy nila noon ay magbabalik bilang fiancƩ ng isang Hugo Ivanov?How did it happen?She can't accept it!She was very very jealous of her!"Do I make myself clear?!" Hugo's voice was like a thunderstorm that made all of them nod in fear. Except for Dalia and Favio. They are still speechless of Devi's luck."Y-yes... M-Mr. Ivanov..." the people around responded one after another."Good.
Devi's Savage AttackDalia shut up. She gritted her teeth in anger. "Mr. Ivanov! Kilala mo ba ng totoong pagkatao ni Devi?! Bakaā""Of course, I know her very well. Even if she doesn't explain to me who she is. Do you think I can't find everything about her? Including what happened a few years ago!? To tell you, I am working for everything and one of these days ay maniningil ako sa mga taong may pakana para sirain ang buhay niya! Sa akin magbabayad ng malaki ang mga taong pilit siyang sinisira at inaapi!"Devi feels Hugo's anger. She held his hands and tapped it. "Let's proceed now. Let's not other people disturb the meeting, alright?"Hugo immediately vanished the anger. He looked at Devi very gently and nodded. "We hear that all of the higher-ups agreed to you becoming the head of the company, right?""Y-yes... Mr. Ivanov," sagot ng lahat."So, it's my turn, Dev. Let me settle this everything for you, okay?"Devi nodded. "Go ahead,"Hugo faces all. "Isang beses ko lang itong sasabihi
The Matter Of TrustNagkatitigan si Cody at Boris sa bilis ng pagkakagawa ni Devi na paghagis kay Dalia. The move was intense and was very satisfying for them to witness.Napalunok naman ang mga tao sa harapan nila. For them, Devine Miller seemed a lazy and vulnerable white cat but it turned out a very fierce cat. Hindi nila akalain na may itinatago pa lang bangis sa likod ng maamo at malaanghel nitong mukha.Hindi rin nakakibo si Favio Miller sa ginawang pagtilapon ni Devi kay Dalia. Umurong bigla ang dila niya.Tumingin si Devi kay Hugo ng masuyo. "You can continue now," she said."Are you calm now?" he asks as he grabs her hands.Devi nodded. "Yeah,""Good. Now, drink this." inabot ni Hugo ang bottled water at binuksan iyon saka inabot kay Devi.Devi slightly smiles, showing her cute dimples. "Thanks, my, Mr. Ivanov," Devi said.Hugo tapped Devi's head while lovingly looking at her.Cody and Boris rolled their eyes again.'Kailan ba matatapos ang public display of affection (PDA) ng
Run TestDevi was a bit wondering when Jhulia urged her not to drive and bring her car. She just asked her driver and drove them instead."Mom, where exactly we were going? You didn't let me drive. Pwede naman ako na lang ang magmaneho at magdala ng car. I can drop you anywhere you want after this, or I can send you back to the mansion again before I go to the company."Jhulia shook her head. "No. Ayokong mapagod ka. Since Hugo says that you look tired everyday. Well, ano ba ang nangyari may sakit ka ba?"Umiling si Devi rito. "No mom, but yeah these days nakakaramdam ako ng kakaiba.""What kind? Tell me, darling.""Like, I feel tired, I feel dizzy sometimes, I get irritated in such small matters. I also feel sleepy and lazy all of a sudden. And I hate Hugo when he's always against what I want. Like what he did this morning. And weird, I also feel emotional instantly.""Kailan mo lang ito naramdaman, hija?" Jhulia seriously asked her."I think a week ago, Mom."Jhulia gently smiled an
Breakfast2 Weeks LaterDevi and Hugo are still in the Ivanov Mansion. Hugo's grandparents are still with them. Gustong gusto na ni Hugo ang bumalik sa Villa nila at masolo si Devi but his grandparents and parents didn't allow them as long as his grandparents were there."Grandma, Grandpa, kailan ang balik niyo province?" Hugo asks them while they are having breakfast.Helga and Victor frowned upon hearing it.Victor put down the newspaper that she was reading. And Helga stopped eating."Are you trying to send us out?" Victor asks narrowing his eyes."You brat, at balak mo talaga kaming pauwiin na?" Helga said throwing Hugo a deadly look."I'm just asking. My wife feels bored staying here at the mansion." Hugo uses Devi dahil malakas ang asawa niya sa mga ito. They really adored Devi since there is no woman in the Ivanov family."Si Devi o ikaw?" Helga sneered.Harvey smirks. Alam niyang uwing-uwi na ang anak niya sa Villa nito kasama si Devi.Hugo pursed his lips and silently ate his
PinnedAt the parking lot. Hugo and Devi were hand in hand walking in their car. Agad lumabas ang driver ng kotse at binuksan ang backseat. Malapit na sila sa kotse ng biglang huminto si Devi sa paglalakad."What happened?" Hugo asked frowning."Honey, I'm tired of walking. My ankle is hurting." Devi said, complaining.Hugo smirks.Devi slowly raised her arms. "Carry me, Mr. Ivanov, please?" she cutely said.Hugo nodded. "Of course, my clingy wife," Hugo whispered and carried Devi into his arms.Devi instantly hooked her arms around her husband's neck and leaned into his arms. "Thank you, hubby. I love you."Hugo was pleased.After he placed Devi in the car. Isasara na sana niya ang pinto. But Devi pulled him inside the car. Hugo has no choice but to get inside dahil si Devi na ang umusod papasok.When the driver got inside the car, he immediately pulled down the partition of the car.Devi instantly moves and snuggles into her husband's arms."Are you drunk?" Hugo asks her.Devi shook
Old CoupleDevi was satisfied with her husband's kiss. Her eyes sparkled again while learning Hugo's broad chest. Tumingala siya rito at ngumiti. She reached the corner of his lips and wiped the red taint with her thumb. Hugo let her do it while embracing her waist.The powerful couple is showing affection to each other while Emma is still in front of them.Emma couldn't take it anymore; she avoided staring at them while walking in the background with her heart aching.Ang hindi nila alam ay ang mga paparazzi na sikretong kinukuhanan ang mag-asawa ng mga larawan. May kuha rin habang nandoon si Emma. Ang paghahalikan rin ng mag-asawa ay kuhang kuha sa kamera."Are you tired? You want to go home now?" masuyong tanong ni Hugo kay Devi.Devi nodded. "Yeah. But, everyone is still here even your family. How can we go home just like that?" Devi said and yawned.Hugo smirks and kisses her forehead. "Come on, ako ang bahala."Devi nodded. "Okay."Hugo gently drags Devi, but before they can reac
Intense KissWhile Esmeralda corner Devi, Emma also corners Hugo. Iyon yung oras na susundan na ni Hugo si Devi sa comfort room dahil sa bahagya nang nagtatagal si Devi at hindi pa bumabalik.He was afraid, dahil baka maulit ang nangyari sa nakaraang malaking party na naganap at napuruhan si Devi sa nagtangkang umatake kay Xillin. He can't afford seeing Devi injured again.Paliko na si Hugo ng lumapit sa kanya si Emma na may bitbit na dalawang baso ng alak."Can I have this toast with you?" Emma said and then handed him a glass of wine.Hugo frowned slightly."Don't tell me aayawan mo ako?" Emma was daring, iyon ay dahil bahagya na siyang nakakainom ng alak."Yes. I will refuse it." Hugo said with a serious gaze.Emma smirks. "Oh, why? Dahil ba sa babae na ipinalit mo sa akin?""Yes, because I will drive home and my wife is with me. Her safety is my top priority." Sagot ni Hugo ng diretso rito. Wala siyang pakialam sa mararamdaman nito."Do you love her?""Of course, I do," Hugo said.
RetaliationEsmeralda was trying to talk to Hugo but she ended up with Devi. Sinundan niya ito ng tumungo ito papuntang banyo. Itinaon niya na hindi nito kasama si Hugo. She was alone.Pagkatapos ni Devi gunamit ng banyo ay naghugas siya ng kamay. Naramdaman niyang may isang ginang sa kabilang sink. It was Esmeralda Turner. Pinakilala ito sa kanya kanina ng kanyang mother-in-law. Hindi ito pinansin ni Devi ngunit naramdaman niyang sa kanya ito nakasulyap ng mariin at may galit."So, ikaw ang babae ngayon sa buhay ni Hugo?" Esmeralda said, she sounds serious.Devi reached a hand tissue to dry her hands saka humarap sa ginang. "No. I'm not just his woman. I am his wife." Taas noong sinabi rito ni Devi.Esmeralda narrowed her eyes and didn't say any other words."Um, excuse me, ma'am," Devi said and was about to excuse herself."Don't go. Let me ask you some questions first." Esmeralda stops Devi from going out.Devi stopped. Naramdaman niyang may tao sa pinto at hindi pumasok ng tuluyan.
Apprentice"Oh, hey grandma...""You brat, bakit hindi mo man lang pinapakilala sa amin ang babae na kanina mo pa binubuntutan!" The old woman said in a frown.Hugo pressed his forehead. "Honey, I forgot to introduce you to our grandparents. Come, let me introduce you to them." Hinila ng bahagya ni Hugo si Devi palapit sa isang pares na matanda na kasalukuyang nakaupo sa vip table. "Grandma, Grandpa... This is Devine Miller Ivanov, my wife. Honey, this is my Grandma Helga Ivanov, and Grandpa Victor Ivanov." Hugo introduces Devi to his grandparents.Devi smiled at the old couple. Lumapit siya rito at nagbigay galang sa pamamagitan ng pag-mano at halik sa pisngi ng dalawang matanda.The old couple felt satisfied and also smiled warmly at Devi."Hija, are you pregnant?""Grandma..." Hugo instantly cut his grandma."What? I'm just asking her, brat! Kailan mo pa kami balak bigyan ng apo sa tuhod?" Helga said narrowing her eyes at Hugo."Yeah, grandson. Your grandma is right. Kailan n'yo pa
IntroduceAfter the fashion runways, all the guests gathered at the luxurious fashion reception to enjoy the food and drinks.Nagpalit na rin sila Devi, Yanzy, Xillin, Sarina, Alice, and Yna. The six of them were the center of attractions and attention. Idagdag pa na ang mga suot nila ay provided rin ni Sitti.May lumapit na iilan kay Yna, Alice at lalo na kay Sarina na mga talent endorsement company.Hindi na sinubukan ng mga talent manager and CEO's na kausapin pa at alukin ng endorsement sina Devi, Yanzy and Xillin because their man which is one of the influential personalities around Kana City once declared, 'No Chance For Endorsement'. They immediately turned down the endorsement.Yna wanted to accept one endorsement, which is the toothpaste, and also food products. She has a beautiful smile and an innocent, gentle face that fits the endorsement.Alice, which is very shy and serious. She instantly refused the beauty products because she has a lot of work in the Miller Company. Cod
Six Expensive Princesses"Honey, go back to your chair," Devi whispered to Hugo."I don't want to go back in our supposed chair. You know me very well," he said when Hugo was still accompanying her.Devi smirks. "Of course, I know."Nakita ni Devi ang paglabas ni Yanzy, Xillin, Sarina, Alice, and Yna. Ang pinakahuli naman ay ang godmother niyang si Sitti.Everyone shouted at Sitti's name when she was finally with them. Tumungo ito sa tabi ng unahan ni Devi at Hugo. They move forward and then humbly bow to finish their show. Nakisabay na rin si Hugo. He had no choice, he didn't want to leave Devi's side at bumalik sa tabi ni Emma."Well... well, the catwalk is finally over. Let's give Sitti's Masterpiece a round of applause..." Sigaw ng emcee ng malakas.Pumalakpak naman ang lahat kasabay ng paglapit ng emcee sa gawi ni Sitti at ng mga naggagandahang modelo nito."Hello, Ms. Sitti... Welcome to Kana City." The Emcee greeted her and excitedly kissed her cheeks as she handed a microphone
