When she heard that stern voice, she gradually opened her eyes. She saw that Sean was rushing to stop her cousin's hand from striking her face.

"You're such a jerk too! Cheater! Get your head around you. You thought this cousin of mine was innocent, didn't you? She's sneaky and flirtatious!"

The moment the man attempted to grab Carrie's hand back, she became aggressive.

Sean wouldn't let go of her hand. He turned to face her brother, who was likewise taken aback by what had happened.

He moved his neck, pointing outdoors, and said to his brother, "Mr. de Lara, please take her away from here."

Sean gave her a quick glance to let her brother know that she was the one he meant to take away from that place.

Just blinking, her brother was staring at his boss.

Mr. de Lara!" Sean was raising his voice a little more to awaken his brother, especially since Carrie was still trying to attack her.

Carrie appeared to want to scratch her face as she raised her two hands in the air.

    She hurriedly moved because she didn't feel anyone following her. She didn't go more than a few steps before stopping when Dino drew near. After a few weeks, they finally met."Yaz..." His voice started to beg as soon as her name was mentioned.Is it really necessary for two men to ruin her entire day or life?Dino looked at her puffy eyes and the bag she was carrying and froze in shock."Where are you going? Were you crying?" He inquired anxiously."Stop pestering me now, Dino. I'm tired. Please leave me alone." She avoided the man as she answered slowly."Yaz, we need to talk." He was trying to block her way.She inhaled deeply."Marry me this instant, please."Oh my! How many marriage proposals will she receive that day?"Please, Yaz... Let's go far from here after our wedding."She fixed her gaze on her ex-boyfriend's face. She was able to see his face pleading plainly. She still has feelings for him, but they are tainted by his betrayal of her and her best friend, Mhariel.They s

    "Are you done sulking?"She was even startled by that baritone voice. While her thoughts were preoccupied with Mhariel and Dino, she forgot that she was inside his car.Only then did she notice that they had already passed by the bus terminal a while ago. She turned right away to face him."Why didn't you drop me off at the terminal?" She frowned when she asked that.He didn't say anything; he just sat there and stared at her."Do you even know where to go?" He focused his gaze on the road again.She was silent again."Just as I thought," the man immediately added.She was suddenly irritated once more. It seemed as though she wanted to vent her frustration with Dino and Mhariel on the annoying man sitting next to her."It's none of your business! If you don't bring me back to the terminal, I'll accuse you of kidnapping!"Without even turning to face her again, he simply laughed softly while smirking."Fine! Stop the car, and I'll get off!" The way he responded irritated her even more.

    "I have no doubt that many women would be willing to marry you, Mr... S-sean. I don't understand why you're offering it to me. Additionally, I don't see why you had to be married so soon after calling off your wedding to my cousin. Do you wish your wedding to proceed even with another woman because you regret the money you spent on the wedding preparations, if there were any?" She was wondering why he felt the need to use blackmail to force her into giving him her hand in marriage, even though they don't really know each other. Since marriage is a serious commitment, you don't just offer it to anyone. He laughed at what she said. "Do you think I care about the money? I don't have to be concerned about the expenses if I marry numerous ladies at once. Although I'm not bragging, I'm stating a fact. The truth is that if I can always make my own choice, I will never want to be married." She was even more confused by what he said. It turned out he's not interested in getting married. "T

You can forget about your husband and kids. We can start our own family somewhere no one knows us. Where do you want? London? Australia?"She looked at him in disbelief.

    His forehead furrowed as he read the information provided by the investigator about Patrick de Asis. He already felt a strong aversion toward him when he saw him again with Yazmin. However, it wasn't just jealousy that drove him to have the man investigated. Apparently, Patrick was doing quite well in life. In fact, he was a business partner in one of Latonia's father's enterprises. His brows furrowed even deeper. Could the two of them know each other? What a small world! But why did they seem like strangers when they were in the clinic together? He shrugged. Maybe it was only Latonia's father and Patrick who were acquainted. He shook his head as he discovered that Patrick had three settled cases. He had been reported by three women for stalking them. He knew it! There was something off about the man, especially the way he looked at Yazmin. Based on the report, the man had an obsession with the women he fancied. He wouldn't stop to the point of stalking them, which ex

    She slammed the cards down on the table in frustration. "Damn it!" Minda exclaimed angrily. It seemed like she had only won once that day. Bad luck was following her around. Suddenly, the baby lying on her lap, held with just one hand, let out a piercing cry. The sound grated on her nerves. If she weren’t earning money because of this child, she would have gotten rid of it long ago. Besides, she was waiting for the one million pesos payment from Miss Beautiful. Finally, she could get out of this babysitting job. She had never dreamed of taking care of a child at her age. In fact, she had once persuaded Divina to abort her first pregnancy. She almost jumped when the baby's cries grew louder. "Hey, Minda! Feed your grandchild already. It looks starving!" yelled a driver, annoyed by the noise. She was still at the jeepney stop. Even though she wasn’t begging anymore—thanks to the generous woman interested in the baby—she still hung around there. Why? Because she had be

    He glanced down at the woman who was occupied with bringing him joy. The woman's head was bouncing up and down on his two hands as she sucked his manhood. Her hot mouth and moist tongue made him bite his lip hard. "Ahhh! Suck it! Hmmmph! Ahhrghh!" he said. His hardness was being stroked by her hands as well. He was also adjusting it there when he sensed that she was going to eat away at his entire manhood. She abruptly shifted from her spot in the center of his thighs. Since she wasn't wearing a bra, she taunts him with her attractive big breasts.Her stiff, hard nipples were sticking out, and it was clear that she had not worn a bra when she first came. He had already appreciated that about her. When he was with her, he was always horny. Since the lady has a reason, it appears that her goal is to constantly turn him on.He had countless fantasies about her gorgeous body, but he never imagined that he would actually taste it. He was aware that his appearance paled in

    The baby's cry was loud. The sound of its wailing stirred her consciousness. She struggled to open her heavy eyelids."The baby's alive!" A woman's voice exclaimed.Hearing this, she summoned all her strength to open her eyes, even if just halfway. Though her vision was blurred, she saw a woman in white holding a crying baby.She smiled faintly.My baby... she thought.She attempted to lift her hand, but it was too heavy to move. Her gaze fell on the baby's tiny foot. Before losing consciousness again, she saw, albeit faintly, the image of a brown mark on the baby's sole.She smiled once more before succumbing to sleep.She suddenly woke up, eyes wide open. She bolted upright, despite Sean's arms still wrapped around her. Pulling the blanket off her husband's body, she rushed to check his sole.There it was! She saw the small heart-shaped mark on the sole of his foot. Her fingers traced the mark, and tears began to fall. In her dream, she had seen the same mark on the sole of their ch

He said they were going to meet the woman who had also given birth at St. Therese Clinic the same day she was taken there.Sitting in Patrick's car, she was overly self-conscious as she adjusted the scarf around her neck. She wanted to be annoyed at Sean, but she couldn’t help smiling whenever she remembered his words."You're still mine..."That line kept echoing in her ears. Miraculously, even though she had left him alone with Latonia, she didn’t feel a shred of worry. She was certain Sean wouldn’t give in to his ex’s flirtations.Were all her doubts about her husband back then merely a result of her pregnancy? Or perhaps they stemmed from her insecurities about her body during that time, making her feel Sean might look at someone else.
