THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 43
Adrienne was happy; she started her day with joy. Being with her boss, who is now her boyfriend, brings her unmatched happiness.She was cleaning the living room when she accidentally knocked over a vase. She became anxious and had a bad feeling about what happened. It felt like something bad was happening amid her happiness. She believed that every happiness comes with a price.She tried to ignore the uneasiness she felt but couldn't calm down. She kept thinking about Pedro and if something happened to him.She called Pedro, but he didn't answer her calls. He was always out of reach, which made her more anxious."Why don't you answer my call?" she worried to herself.She started sweating, feeling cold, and couldn't sit still. She didn't like this feeling.She turned on the TV and couldn't believe what she saw on the news.Adrienne felt betrayed at that time. From noon until night, her mind couldn't rest. She might have understood if Pedro had come to her and explained what was happen

Adrienne found herself in a restaurant. It seemed like an expensive place. She felt nervous and tense because the two women who were causing her agony were right in front of her.Carmela smiled gracefully but viciously. "I reserved this five-star restaurant for the day. I didn't want others to see us tormenting you. It's nice that you actually accepted our invitation today. Order as much as you want; maybe it's the first time you'll eat in a place like this, right? I wouldn't be surprised since you're just a peasant," she said with a tone full of insults.Adrienne felt hurt, and she wanted to fight back, but what would be the point? She was already defeated, and it felt like they were just reminding her that she was a loser and would go home in tears.Adrienne noticed the devilish smirk on the faces of the two beautiful women in front of her. Their behavior didn't match their appearance at all."Just leave her alone, Aunt," Logan’s sister said with a grin. She was the perfect descript

Adrienne's heart was overwhelmed by the brevity of one week to fully love Pedro. Seven days were simply too short to create the memories she longed to carry with her when she eventually left.Her emotions weighed heavily on her, causing great pain due to the extreme loneliness she felt. It was already Sunday morning, but Adrienne still couldn't sleep throughout the night, her mind preoccupied with thoughts of her imminent departure.Later that evening, she would see Pedro again. Yesterday, they spent the whole day together, cherishing every moment. Pedro, however, had no inkling of her plans to leave. Adrienne couldn't bring herself to say it, but she knew it was his right to know, and she planned to tell him that very evening.Unable to sleep, Adrienne got up and opened her closet, taking out her luggage. As she began packing her clothes, she felt like there were no tears left to cry.Suddenly, there was a knock on her condo unit door, and she opened it to find Cathy, Indi, Miko, and

That news was a life-changing turn of events for Adrienne. It never crossed her mind that she would still have a souvenir from Pedro. Besides the memories she would carry with her, there was another gift left for her.She was in the condo to rest. It was exhausting for her to think and worry. It's not that she didn't want the pregnancy; in fact, she was even happier. The painful part was that the baby's father was absent. She would be a mother without a partner, and above all, the other Lassiters should not find out.But Adrienne just laughed at that thought. She wanted it to be impossible for anyone to find her, especially since Pedro and his family were furious with her. She thought that Pedro chose to believe the accusations against her. She also thought that Pedro chose his life in Evermere and as a CEO. Maybe she just wanted the man's happiness, even if she was no longer part of his life.She sighed again and took a notebook to start thinking about the steps she would take for he

They started their journey to the location of her café. It was just a short walk near Ethan's hotel and beach resort. Once they parked, they got out of the car and were greeted by a lively scene. Many people, including tourists, had gathered for the café's opening, lured by the freebies and discounts on offer.The mayor, who was scheduled to perform the ribbon-cutting, was also present, and tourists eagerly enjoyed the free drinks and finger food being handed out.Before the ribbon-cutting, Adrienne took the lead in giving a speech to kickstart the activities and the grand opening."I would like to say thank you for coming and witnessing this splendid opening of my shop. I want to express my deepest gratitude to my cousin, Claude Miranda, and my dearest friend and the owner of Hotel de Mercedes, Ethan. They are the reason why I am motivated to open this business. Please enjoy yourself at the café."The celebration went smoothly, with the store's delectable contents quickly disappearin

Adrienne can't deny the unease she feels whenever she's with Ethan. It all started with his simple confession of love, a confession that surprises her because she was no longer single, technically. Avoiding Ethan has become challenging since they've grown closer; he feels like a sibling to her now. Despite this, she has been keeping her distance for a week, trying not to let her feelings complicate things.Everything Adrienne does seems to involve Ethan, and that's exactly what she's trying to avoid. She doesn't want to fall for him on the rebound or use him as a temporary distraction. Having experienced hope followed by disappointment before, she doesn't want to give him false hope either. She knows how it feels to be let down after putting her trust in someone, like what happened with Pedro, who didn't fight for her or listen to her in the end.Adrienne is currently in her office, diligently working on budget lists and checking her stocks while her son, Kent, sleeps peacefully in hi

Two years ago, Adrienne poured her heart and soul into loving Pedro Lassiter, only to find herself lost in the process. Sacrificing everything for a man who saw her merely as a tool left her with bitter memories. Despite the hurtful encounters with her boss, she couldn't escape the foolishness that seemed to linger in her heart.But as the sun rose, Adrienne knew she had to shake off her bitter thoughts and focus on her responsibilities. She got up from the bed and walked over to the crib where her child, Kent, lay. Tomorrow, he would turn one year old, a living reminder of her unrequited love for Pedro Lassiter.The name Pedro Lassiter left a bittersweet taste on her tongue – her ex-boss and the cause of her heartache. Facing reality had been brutal from the beginning, especially falling for a Lassiter, a man seemingly out of reach for a mere secretary like her.As Adrienne cradled her child, she couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance Kent had to his father, Pedro. A fear

Adrienne found it difficult to weigh her feelings. Was it really right to love with her heart when her mind said otherwise? She was scared that one day she would have to choose between Ethan and Pedro and break the other's heart.The day ended with neither Ethan nor Pedro around Adrienne. She went home with Claude driving her car, while Kent was already asleep in the backseat, securely fastened in his safety seat.Adrienne's face contorted in deep thought, remembering the chaos caused by the two men in her office earlier. She had never thought or wished to be fought over by two handsome, charming, and perfect men. Adrienne considered herself just an average woman, and if she hadn't been made over by Cathy, she would probably still look plain.But now, she was being fought over, and it didn't feel good for her. Sometimes, even though it's bad, she thought it would have been better if she had only one heart.She still loved Pedro, while there was a space in her heart for Ethan. Everythi

Together, they conquered those dark periods and now embark on a new chapter in their lives.Adrienne felt a familiar embrace as Pedro hugged her again, even though they were running late for the baptism.Once Pedro recovered, his stamina increased to the point that Adrienne couldn't keep up with his desires in bed anymore. They cherished their intimate moments, sometimes extending them into the early morning hours. The billionaire seemed to have unlimited energy when it came to their passionate encounters."You're so insatiable! Look at what you did! We're late for the venue! You're really frustrating," Adrienne said playfully.Pedro chuckled. "It's just practice for when we have a second baby. We'll be ready."

PEDRO fell into a dark place where he couldn't move his body or open his mouth. He was trapped in a place where only his thoughts had free will.He wondered where he was and why he couldn't move. He asked himself in his mind.He thought about the last moments before he ended up like this. He tried to search deep within his memories until he realized that everything was caused by one thing.He shielded the bullet meant for all of them. He used his body as a shield to protect them from the bullets for a while.Pedro only wished for the safety of his wife and child, even if it meant sacrificing himself.He also wondered where he was. Why couldn't he move or speak? Was this the final destination for people like him who had committed many sins?"Is this hell? I know that I have lots of sins in the world. I wouldn't be shocked if this is the gate to hell. If only I could continue my life in the world," Pedro silently prayed.He still had the desire to return to the world. He hoped it wasn't

Because she was distracted by Daniel McBride, Adrienne failed to notice how Charlotte shifted the aim of the trigger. The crazy woman just shot Pedro and Cathy while she was arguing with her father. There was a commotion after the shot, but fortunately, the authorities were already there to arrest Charlotte and her henchmen.Adrienne was already inside the ambulance. She and her child are crying. Pedro has lost a lot of blood, and his life seemed to be hanging by a thread. Adrienne felt an indescribable fear."Pedro, my love! Wake up, fight for us and your child," Adrienne says while holding her spouse's hand.Aunt Selena holds the sleeping child, probably exhausted from crying. Pedro was immediately taken to the hospital. Adrienne could do nothing but wait outside the emergency room.She cried and prayed to God. She hoped that everything was just a bad dream and that she would wake up."My dear, rest for a while. The nurses will take care of you. You have so many wounds and bruises.

"Who are you, you demon? Why are you doing this to us, huh?" Adrienne asked on the other line."Me? You'll know who I am within three hours, well, technically. Won't you show up within three hours? Because if not, I'll start cutting off your child's fingers in advance!" the voice replied to her."No! Don't! We'll show up! We'll come at the agreed time! Just don't harm the child!" Adrienne pleaded anxiously. She was clearly afraid of what the deranged person they were facing might do."Good! It's good to know that you're cooperating. I thought it would be more challenging! Alright then! By the way, I just wanted to let you know that I take my time killing that guy! HAHAHA!" the voice on the other line, sounding like a demon, spoke."You beast! I hope you end up in hell!" Adrienne shouted while crying. Her heart felt heavy, especially after learning what happened to her beloved friend."Thanks for calling me a beast. And about what you said, hell, you say? Do not fret! I've been there,

ADRIENNE felt the enormous grudge coming from Carmela at this point. She and Pedro sat facing the well-known Lassiter couple, not just known in Evermere, but throughout the whole world. Carmela Lassiter, hailing from a wealthy clan known for their jewelry shops, designs, and clothing lines, and Robert Lassiter, a successful businessman, undoubtedly passed on his intelligence to Pedro.Just being in their presence made Adrienne a little nervous, but she was grateful to have Pedro by her side."The week hasn't even ended, and we're meeting again. Have you thought about what I said?" Pedro's mother asked in a sharp tone."Mom!" Pedro responded with irritation, clearly fed up.Adrienne squeezed his hand reassuringly. "It's okay. Simple words won't affect me. I know where I stand and what I'm fighting for."The woman let out a sarcastic laugh at her response. "Really? Maybe you just don't feel the weight of every word I say. Where else would you inherit such audacity if not from your great

Adrienne's mind was filled with questions about the words spoken by the mother of the man she loved. She knew deep down that her mother was a kind and loving person. Even though they didn't spend much time together because they were taken away by God early on, Adrienne knew that her mother was a compassionate and respectful individual. She shouldn't let herself be poisoned by the words that came out of the woman who had caused her so much pain over the years.But some things couldn't be erased from her mind. First was Carmela's face. Adrienne knew that face was filled with resentment as if it had deep-rooted anger."Can't you sleep?" the man suddenly asked her.It was already late at night, but Adrienne's spirit was still alive as if she had drunk too much coffee and been slapped multiple times. The voice of the woman continued to echo in her mind."Yeah, maybe I'm just a little stressed," Adrienne replied. As much as possible, she didn't want Pedro to see her depressed side. She was

Adrienne woke up feeling as if her body was in pain. She had rested more than she expected, unaware that the intensity of her longing for intimacy with Pedro would result in such heavy body pain.She struggled to stand up and found Pedro already up, having cleaned up and dressed. "You're awake," he said as he entered their room, holding their child."Yes, but I can't stand because of what you did," Adrienne said irritably, glaring at him."Why, Mama? Did Daddy hurt you?" their child asked, confused. "Daddy! You are bad!" their child exclaimed."No, baby! Daddy didn't hurt me," Adrienne explained to their child."That's right, my child. I did not hurt your Mama. Mama just can't stand because we made a baby last night," Pedro said, unable to hide his excitement in his voice.Their child seemed delighted with what their daddy said. "Really? Yay! I'll have a baby sister or baby brother!" Kent exclaimed happily.If their child wasn't in the room, Adrienne would have wanted to strangle Pedr

Adrienne woke up early to prepare for their breakfast. She went to the kitchen, but it seemed that Pedro was already there ahead of her. The other helpers were not yet present since it was only a quarter to 5 in the morning.Pedro noticed her busy cooking breakfast. "Oh? Why did you wake up so early? Are you uncomfortable in your room or bed? Just say it, and we can change it," the man said to her.The morning was still chilly, so Adrienne hugged herself. She thought it would be nicer to have someone to embrace."Why am I being so stubborn? Do I need to make things difficult for us like this? Why don't I just give in to my weakness?" Adrienne said to herself."I don't have any problem. I just woke up early to help in the kitchen," Adrienne replied while brewing tea."It's almost done. Do you want to have breakfast now?" Pedro asked her.Only now did Adrienne notice that the man was only wearing a tank top and black boxers. He looked like a model who would walk the runway for famous me

Pedro was feeling more excitement and joy than anyone else right now. For him, it feels like a dream come true. He is thrilled that the woman he loves the most and, of course, his child will finally come back to the Azura.His efforts did not go in vain. After years of pursuing the woman he loves, it has finally borne fruit. He is also aware that he hasn't fully gained Adrienne's trust yet, but he will do everything in his power to make her love him and trust him again.Now, Pedro is accompanied by his foolish friends who are helping him with the surprise and welcome party he has prepared. He spent the past two weeks renovating their old house.He quickly organized everything, and he is certain that all his efforts will be worth it once he fully wins Adrienne over."Looks like after a year, you're finally lucky, you idiot. What bad luck did Miss Secretary encounter that made her come back to you?" Kurt teased Pedro. Pedro's anger flared up, and his nostrils flared in irritation."You
