I OWN EVERY COPYRIGHT TO THIS WORK/NOVEL!.I HOPE YOU AMAZING READERS ENJOY THIS STORY. AND PLEASE, I'M NOT GREAT WITH ENGLISH, IN CASE YOU SEE ERRORS, JUST PLEASE PARDON ME.PLUS, NOTE THAT THIS BOOK IS FICTION. DON'T CONNECT UNREALISTIC DRAMAS/ACTIONS TO REAL LIFE.."Good job everyone, this movie is a great hit because of all your hard work!". The director said out loudly with an excited voice.After a month plus of getting in character with the celebrities, the movie was finally done and next was to celebrate the co-stars that participated, most especially Mateo who happens to be the male lead of the play.He did a wonderful job in his own part of the play and earned millions of loyal fans."All cheers to Mateo!". They all yelled out almost at the same time before exiting the movie site.Their next destination was at the bar close to their apartments. They still had to celebrate the great movie that would be released.……The next day.Inside Mateo's own apartment."Ha…. I'm so tired and sick that I could vomit". Mateo muttered as soon as he opened his eyes. The only memories that flashed into his head was the moment he spent half of his night with his fellow co-stars.He had too much to drink, so he didn't even have any idea of how he returned back to his apartment."I better go wash up. Big brother and Mother must be expecting me to visit them after being away from home for a long time". "Wait, that's right. I can't wait to see my cute niece and nephews…. Including Mina too". He hurried to his bathroom after tugging out from the blanket, with his hands holding his stomach that wouldn't stop grumbling.It took him only 15 minutes to bathe since he was in a hurry to return to Alexander's Mansion, but as soon as he came out from the bathroom, he ended up shocking himself."What are you doing in my room?!". Tina and Mateo yelled at each other the same second while pointing their index fingers against themselves.[Tina is the main female lead of the movie Mateo featured in. Her and Mateo are known as the cat and rat since they totally dislike themselves for no reason in particular]."No…. Wait, what?. This is my room, and why are you here?!". Mateo wrapped his hands around his chest as he asked."No, this is supposed to be my room. I should be the one asking this question. What are you doing here!?". Tina quarrelled before staring at herself properly. "Wait, did you do anything to me last night?. How did you even get into my room without my notice". She also wrapped her hands around her chest as she questioned.Meanwhile, it was at this moment Mateo stared around his environment and noticed that this wasn't his room to even begin with."Oh, sorry…. I must have gotten drunk and mistakenly entered your room last night". His hand gently scratched his head before he continued. "In that way, I'll be out of your sight immediately, my Queen".Mateo quickly wore his clothes, he didn't even let Tina say anything else before he left."Hmph, what a perverted scum. How dare he mistake my apartment for his. How come I didn't even notice the moment he came in?. Was I also drunk last night?". "No, that's impossible". She waved her crazy thoughts away before she angrily rushed to her bathroom to take her bath.She took her time in the bathroom because of the thoughts that Mateo shared the same bed with her.It took Tina exactly 30 minutes to be done with bathing and dressing up. The next thing was for her to arrange her apartment since she was officially leaving today.But the moment her hand touched the blanket, she noticed the little blood stain on the sheets."No, no no…. What is this?". She muttered and her eyes widened in shock.It was exactly this minute she felt a slight pain in her waist and between her legs."This can't be happening to me. That b*stard! How dare he do such a horrible thing to me!". "My…. My…. My virginity is gone". She whimpered before falling on her knees.Her hands reached out and grabbed the blanket with force before she screamed out. "MATEO!. YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THIS YOU WILD CAT. I HATE YOU MORE THAN BEFORE!!!".."Achoo!. Is someone saying negative things about me?. Nah, that's just a nonsense myth. I better get going already". Mateo headed straight for his car before he drove off.Though Mateo's manager, David, was reluctant to let him drive, but after hearing where Mateo intended to visit, it didn't take David a second to back down.Only a fool would visit the lion's den. 'Alexander's estate'.It was an hour ride, but Mateo finally made it back to the Mansion."Mommy, mommy…. Big brother Mateo is finally back home!". Tessa was the person to announce the news since she was the first person to spot Mateo.She ran to give Mateo a hug since his arms were open wide for her to embrace him."My cute niece. You're all grown up now!". Mateo said out, before carrying Tessa up and spinning her around a little before placing her back down on her feet."Where….". Before Mateo could complete his word, he already spotted Tyler and Taylor who also came to give him a hug. "That's right my little cuties, I'm finally back and going to spend a lot of time with you three". He was excited when he said this. "That's right, where is my Mother, your Mother and your Father?". Mateo suddenly asked since it was only Tyler, Taylor and Tessa that welcomed him. (Though, the maids also did welcome him upon his arrival)."Grandma went to visit our Granddaddy, and our Daddy went to handle important stuff in the Company overseas and would be back today"."And our mommy is sick. But since you're here, we're going to have fun together!". Tessa didn't even let Taylor finish talking before she said."Wait, Mina is sick?. What's the problem?. Did Alexander know about this?". Mateo asked immediately since he was worried for Mina."Of course not. Mommy doesn't want our Daddy to be worried, so she didn't tell him anything . She said her sickness isn't a big deal. But I'm sure Daddy won't let her do as she wishes if he returns". Tyler said, though there was a little hint of sadness in his voice since he was worried for Mina."Alright, let's go meet your mommy first before bringing out the gifts I bought for you three". Mateo announced to Tyler, Taylor and Tessa who led him the way to where Mina was at the moment..Tina Nwuba: This story is going to be focused on mainly Mateo. Anyways, let's move on.Arriving in Alexander's bedroom, as expected, Mina was asleep, but when she heard the door open up, she immediately opened her eyes and sat up on the bed because she thought it was Alexander. She hated to bother him with her sick state. "Phew, thank goodness it's only Mateo!". Mina sighed in relief as she thought to herself before getting up from the bed. "Mateo, you're finally back". She announced before giving him a hug to welcome him. "Yeah". "And I heard you're sick". Mateo pulled from the hug before he said. "Who told you that?....". Mina asked, but it didn't take long for her to notice her three mischievous kids. "You three told him, didn't you?". Mina asked with raised brows, her voice was low, it was as if she even forced words to come out of her mouth. "Of course mommy. You're sick, and you refused to tell grandma and daddy. So we told big brother Mateo about it instead". Tyler announced, not feeling guilty at all.Mina's right hand gently massaged her temple before smil
"Are you sure you're okay my dear Tina?. You've taken your bath more than 4 times today. You're going to be late for your next shoot". Jaden softly said out. He was trying to persuade Tina to be done dressing up already, he suffered enough to get this role for her, but here she was, giving him a really tough time by behaving rudely as always. "I refuse. Just decline the shoot if they can't wait. My body is itchy. You won't believe what happened to me this morning!". Tina yelled out from inside the bathroom where she was at the moment. "Alright, there we go again". Jaden gently hit his forehead and shook his head after listening to what Tina yelled out to him. This was totally the fifth time today that she complained about Mateo mistaking her room for his and laying on the same bed as her.And he totally gets how frustrated Tina is because she definitely does dislike Mateo. Even their 'Tina and Mateo' kissing scene in the last movie that they both featured in was shortened because
(Inside Mateo's room, he was sitting on his bed while Tyler, Taylor and Tessa were playing with the new toy games that Mateo got for them). "What's taking them so long?". Mateo wondered, checking the wrist watch he wore in his hand. It was already more than 2 hours since Alexander and Mina left for the hospital, and they were not yet back, so he was pretty worried that Mina's sickness was severe. "Big brother Mateo, are you thinking about my mommy and daddy?". Tyler questioned, he could already read what was going on in Mateo's mind. "Of course, it has been 2 hours already, I'm worried. They didn't even bother to call". Mateo replied. He wasn't focused on having fun with Tyler, Taylor and Tessa when he hadn't heard any news from Alexander and Mina. "Mateo, is that really you?". Deborah opened the door to Mateo's room before she asked. She arrived around 4 minutes ago, and since she didn't see the kids or either Mina in their rooms, she decided to just check Mateo's own ro
(The hospital, Mina was sitting on the white VIP bed while Alexander sat beside her, not leaving her side)."I'm really pregnant". Mina muttered softly to herself, staring at Alexander while her hands were busy touching her flat stomach. "This is not a prank, right?". She asked again to confirm since she didn't exactly believe what Alexander informed her about earlier. He told her that he only lied about his impotent to create a fake happiness for his late uncles. "I'd never lie to you ever again". Alexander assured her, placing a deep kiss on her lips. "You better not…. Or…. Or I'm not going to let you kiss me anymore". With a blushing face, Mina threatened her hubby. Alexander only smiled at her before removing the strands of hair that slightly covered her face."Sure darling". He replied before the door to the VIP room swung open. "Our kids? How are they here". Mina was just about to ask how Tyler, Taylor and Tessa got here by themselves when she saw Mateo, Deborah and Jake th
Mateo didn't have the energy to have a never ending conversation with Tina, so he chose to ignore her instead and left. Tina raised her brows and scoffed at Mateo seeing him leave without saying anything. "What's up with him?. He should be glad that someone like me even bothered to talk to him". "He should be glad that he didn't remember what he did to me last night, if not, I wouldn't have just let him off easily like this". Tina added, adjusting her dress before heading towards the 2D VIP room, where the doctor of her appointment was going to meet with her. "What is she even doing here?". Mateo muttered. He hid himself at a corner and watched Tina until the last second she entered the 2D room. He was damn curious to know what she was doing here even though it was against his own will. "Why must I be curious about someone as rude and stubborn as her?". Mateo couldn't help but wonder while he gently shook his head in disbelief of himself. It wasn't that long before Mateo spotted
"A month?". Mateo questioned again to confirm what Alexander just announced to him. "Does that mean I'm now in charge of taking care of the kids?". Mateo thought to himself, he was so looking forward to this already. "Just don't overdo things. I won't be coming back to the Mansion soon, so behave". Alexander glared at Mateo as he warned. Mateo gulped his saliva down his throat hard before hurrying Alexander to go back to the room where Mina was. "Sure sure, no need to worry about me handling things when I already got it under control"."I'm sure you know the consequences if you mess up little brother?". Alexander held the door knob and was staring at Mateo as he reminded him. "Of course, how could I ever forget about that". Without blinking his eyes, Mateo spoke."Good". Alexander said before opening and heading inside the room. "Phew". Mateo cleaned the sweat that formed on his forehead seeing that Alexander was already gone. After that, it was now the time for him to leave the
Tina was in such a bad mood that she didn't even let Jaden in her apartment after his multiple trials of pressing the door ring bell.The voice of that person was still stuck in her head, leaving her in a really bad mood and the past memories she had already forgotten were now playing all over in her head, causing her to experience the feelings of pain and resentment towards that particular person she hates."That b*stard, why did he have to remember me all of a sudden?. I'll kill him!". She roared out angrily, heading towards her bathroom to take a shower. She has spent more than 1 hour reflecting that she didn't even realise it until now. Getting inside the bathroom, she pulled off her dress and stood under the shower before switching it on. As the cold water poured on her skin, she didn't even groan nor flinch, but rather, she remained stiff, her eyes filled with only hatred. "Since you dare to call me, Father…. You must really need something from me this time". She thought to h
Tina's apartment was close to the falling petals park, she arrived in 10 minutes since she trekked from her apartment all the way here. "This place is just as beautiful as ever". She softly muttered and complimented, her right hand stretched forward to grab a piece of the falling pink petals. "This one is mommy's favourite". She inhaled the sweet fragrance coming from the petals before blowing it away. Next up, she spotted a familiar bench, the familiar special bench that held many memories of the past. This bench has been there since even before her Mother died. Tina walked over and sat down while she enjoyed the nice view of the park. Since it was already evening, there weren't many people present at the park. "Now being here actually makes me happy". She muttered to herself calmly and shut both her eyes while the cool breeze did the trick, she didn't even know the minute she slept off on the bench.About 30 minutes later, she woke up and checked the time on her phone, it was ju
It has been one month and a week since Bella left for Italy with Leonardo. And now, it's been 9 months and counting since Tina became pregnant. Plus actually, last two weeks ago, Mina successfully gave birth to a baby girl. The district mansion,“Come on, honey, I have to take you for a checkup”. Mateo said to Tina in a soft voice as he tried to wake her up.“Just give me 5 minutes more”. “You've given this excuse countless times already. You're just being lazy”.“Lazy?”. Tina weakly got up after hearing the last part of Mateo's words. And since Mateo was close to her, she grabbed his ears with her hands and pinched them while she said, “Who are you calling lazy? Is it me? In fact, you're the lazy one, my sweet darling. I'm busy carrying two lives inside me and you're calling me lazy?”. “The audacity….”. “I apologise, I apologise. Calm down, you'll hurt yourself and our baby”. Mateo immediately pleaded and was confused after seeing the confused look on Tina's face. “What's wrong?”.
7 months later,Because of the trick Bella used against Leonardo that day, she completely stopped coming to work and even found another job. To Bella, she thought that since she had repaid Leonardo's grudge, he won't come again for her, but guess what? She was wrong because Leonardo always confronted her which made her wary of him. Like, when is he planning to leave for Italy?“Ha, I'm tired”. “A stressful day at work too, ha?”. Susie asked Bella as she was also tired since she came back from work too just now. “Yeah.. I'm so tired that I don't think I would be able to do anything”. Bella replied as she laid comfortably on the sofa. “Sorry, but I think you have to do something, Bella”. Susie admitted and when she saw the confused look Bella was giving her, she added, “Leonardo is waiting outside the apartment for you. I saw him on my way in”.Hearing what Susie announced caused Bella to react and jerk up immediately. “What does he want from me this time?”. Bella said with a frown.
Leo's company, at Leonardo's office,“Here is what you ordered. I've reprinted everything”. Bella announced as she carefully kept the files on Leonardo's desk.Leonardo collected the files and was reviewing them. It didn't take that long and he ordered, “Assistant Bel, go bring me a cup of hot coffee”.“That's it!. I quit!”. Bella declared before she sat down on the floor and refused to get up. “Because of you, I wasn't able to attend my big sister's wedding. I’m done trying to please you, Leonardo…. Do your worst". Bella announced with furrowed eyebrows. Seriously, she has been working for the past 7 hours non stop, and was already tired. “My PA is cute when she barks at her boss”. Leonardo admitted with a grin. “Ba- barks? Me? Barks?. Am I a dog to you or what?!”. Bella got annoyed and naturally rose up from the floor. “You can't breach the contract you signed”. Listening to what Leonardo said to her, Bella absolutely wished she could just kick him again. The knock on the door
Bella returned to Tina's apartment by exactly 9pm…. And the first thing she did was to lay down on the bed as she was extremely tired. “You’re back already, Bella? How was your day at work?”. Susie came out from the bathroom, and when she saw Bella, she asked. Bella let out a tired groan before she replied to Susie in a complaining tone, “Don't ask me, Susie. I feel pain all over my body”. “Pain? How did it happen?”. “It's all Leonardo's fault, of course”. Bella announced and when she recalled how horrible her day was today, she sat up on the bed and said to Susie, “Could you believe that since the moment you guys left Leonardo’s office, my butt didn't touch the chair?”. “Eh? What's that supposed to mean?”. Susie questioned as she didn't quite understand what Bella meant. “What I mean is that, I've been working and running like a horse all day long. That jerk, Leonardo! He didn't even let me rest for a sec!”. Bella explained and was panting angrily. Susie on the other hand, w
“Wait, wait, wait. I admit my mistake, big bro. I won't run away like that again”. Jake immediately explained as he was already beginning to feel dizzy with the way Leonardo was hitting his head non stop. “Good for you, little brother”. Leonardo said out before he finally stopped hitting Jake's head out of pity. Now, Leonardo's attention was focused on Bella who was hiding herself behind Susie's back. “Don't come close to me”. Bella immediately announced when she noticed that Leonardo was about to take a step towards where she was. A smirk appeared on Leonardo’s face as he questioned Bella, “Why”. “Why?”. Bella repeated with a frown before she came out from hiding and even went ahead and stood in front of Leonardo before she added, “You're asking me, why? Alright, I'll answer. First of all, you're a dangerous guy. And second of all, you're a freak. Just because I kicked you that night, you still haven't gotten over it? Are you a weakling or what?”. “You can talk all you want,
When Bella dragged Jake all the way to where the cars were parked, reality hit her head too hard because she suddenly remembered that she didn't have any car of her own since the Mansion was still sealed by the upper authorities. (PS: The mansion in Bella's mind is Tina's Mom mansion. Plus, Bella's car is currently stuck there). ‘Gosh. Even though I'm broke, when can I retrieve my car back from my big sis mom's mansion?’. Bella thought. Soon, she left Jake and ruffled her red hair. Seeing what Bella was doing to her hair, Susie asked, “Are you alright?”. “It's not like that, Susie. I didn't bring enough cash with me, and, how are we going to get to Leo's company?”. Bella said. “That's no problem at all. We can use cousin Sebastian car. Good thing I snatched his car key when he wasn't looking”. The voice of Camila was so sudden to everyone, that it caused them to turn behind. “Camila? Big sis? You followed us?”. Amelia was surprised and said. “Of course, Amelia. Well,
“Easy. Slow down, Bella. Can you explain everything that happened?”. Susie calmed Bella down with her words. As for Bella, before she began narrating the whole story, she went to one of the tables and took a glass cup that was filled with water. Soon, she drank all the water before dropping the glass cup on the table and returning to Susie's side. “Here's how it happened….”. Bella suddenly spoke out and went silent for a while. And after staring at everyone's faces quickly, she continued narrating the story, “You know I was happy this morning when I was preparing to go for my job interview at Leo's Company, right?”. Bella asked Susie, and when Susie nodded at her in acknowledgement, she continued narrating her story, “Well, I successfully arrived at the Company, thanks to God. And when I arrived at the interview floor, I waited for many minutes before the company workers started showing up. Plus that wasn't all, one of the office workers approached me and handed a document for me t
The gardens, After making sure that everyone was present in the garden, Deborah returned to the garden since she wanted to join in Mateo's birthday celebration. Upon arriving, Deborah was stunned to see some faces she didn't expect to show up. “Eh? Sebastian? Mason? Santiago? Camila and Amelia?”. Deborah said in disbelief before she added, “You all came? I can't believe this. You children didn't even inform me you'd be coming”. (PS: Sebastian, Mason, Santiago, Camila and Amelia are cousins to Alexander and Mateo). As the eldest among them, Sebastian went to Deborah. He didn't handshake her, but instead, he hugged her tightly while he said, “It's been a long time, mother. We all missed you”. “I miss you too, my sweet Sebastian”. Deborah admitted. She was hugging Sebastian so sweetly and warmly that it got Mason, Santiago, Camila and Amelia, jealous. “Me too. I want to hug you, mother”. Santiago announced and before he could reach Deborah's side, Amelia pushed him. “Not if I
Outside the mansion, in the gardens, Earlier this morning, Mateo's birthday celebration was supposed to be held in the living room of the mansion, but Deborah refused and insisted that it'd be much better if Mateo’s birthday party was held in the gardens. The garden was so huge and was decorated with harsh red ribbons. Plus, the ribbons decorations in the gardens were few since it wasn't a child's celebration. Seeing that the chairs and tables were in order, and properly arranged as per her order, Mrs Harris slightly nodded her head in delight before she returned into the Mansion to invite everyone to the garden. “Everything is ready?”. Deborah asked as she saw Harris approach her. “Yes, Deborah. Everything is set”. Mrs Harris replied politely, causing Deborah to smile. In no time, after Deborah dismissed Mrs Harris, she took over. First, she went to Alexander’s room, and when she was allowed in, she saw that Alexander was already dressed up. Plus, she also witnessed A
