While they waited outside the emergency room, Sean had been restless. He moves in circles. Even when the door opened, they would both glance at it. Her husband is not to be blamed. His friend is in danger. At that moment, she wanted to feel sympathy for him since she could see the pain and a trace of guilt on Sean's face. She doesn't know why she also sees guilt in him.She was about to get up and go talk to him when the doctor eventually emerged. Sean went to the doctor right away."Her condition is stable, but we need to observe first since her legs were severely crushed."It's fortunate that we don't need to have her limbs amputated. She's still unconscious, though," the doctor explained in great detail, explaining that the patient will awaken the following day.Sean thanked the doctor and turned to face her as they both heaved a sigh of relief that Bianca was safe."Go home now. I'll stay here.""I'll stay here with you." She offered."You need to rest," he said as he squeezed her
Sean hastily left her side when the nurse announced that she had woken up. She wasn't sure if he had fully forgotten she was there. She did nothing but stare at the food in the paper bag she was carrying. Even though she didn't get much sleep, she got up early to make him breakfast.She walked slowly as she entered the room where Bianca was. She witnessed Bianca sobbing as she feared never being able to walk again. She was able to clearly see Sean's reaction. He might have done so had he been able to absorb Bianca's anguish into himself.She could relate to Sean because she could feel his feelings. She is aware of the circumstances, thus she is not jealous. Even she was moved by Bianca's cries of desperation.She saw Lance enter the room. He is currently standing by Bianca's side with Sean. Despite everything, Bianca was still very lucky because there were two men who were sure to never leave her, no matter what.She fixed her gaze on Lance's face. It's also clear that he loves and ca
As she stood in front of Sean's condo, her heart was racing. She felt as though she was witnessing the same event as when she went to Dino's rented home and saw him in a scandalous scene with Mhariel.She inhaled deeply before turning the key to open the door. She opened it with caution. She noticed Sean's back on the sofa right away. When it was established that Bianca was present, she nearly exhaled. She is in a wheelchair. No one even sensed her presence as she entered quietly."It's good that you agreed to go to the U.S." She even heard Sean say that. Bianca smiled at him and then pinched Sean's cheek."Because of how persistent you were!" Compared to the previous time she saw Bianca in the hospital, she seemed more radiant and energetic. The two laughed. Bianca's expression abruptly turned serious."Sean, I'm grateful. Thank you for staying with me." Bianca even touched her husband's face.She tightened her grip on the key she was holding when she saw Bianca slowly bring her face
When she went to Davao, she took her staff with her. Joshua is getting married to his girlfriend, who he met in Davao. His brother never requested to be reassigned to Manila because he met a woman there with whom he had a serious relationship.Now that his fiancée is pregnant, her brother is getting married soon. They will be in charge of making all of the wedding attire, including the gowns for the bride and groom and their entire bridal party.When she left Sean's house, she returned to her parents. They welcomed her back wholeheartedly, especially when she came back with unceasing crying. Instead of bombarding her with questions, her parents waited for her to express all of her feelings. Even yet, it was clear from their expressions that they were taken aback when she returned home with all of her possessions. But especially while she was sobbing bitterly, they felt more worried.When she was tired of crying, she just continued sobbing while telling them that she and Sean had separ
Because Sean was just in front of her, staring at her, she had a hard time eating. After noticing his intense gaze on her, she only frowned at him. When she caught him, he was much more determined to continue staring at her and didn't even budge. She continued to scowl and frown.Also, she was concerned for her kid, who appeared restless while being carried by Joshua. The child never stopped staring at her. She had not seen her son in three days, so she knew he was seeking her. Her parents came to Davao with her son since she would be very busy.'Meeee! Meeee!' From time to time, her son screams as if he is about to cry. She really wanted to take the child because she missed him so much. It was the first time she had been separated from her son."What's his name?" Sean questioned Trina."G-gazer. G-gaze." Trina, on the other hand, appeared nervous as she responded to the man. She occasionally even gave her a glance.She inhaled deeply before turning her attention back to her food. She
Her family apologized to Sean for not telling him everything after learning that he already knew about their child. They gave an explanation for why they didn't even bring that up with him. When she decided not to notify Sean about their son, they supported her decision. Only she had the authority to let Sean know when she was ready.She was wondering why her family seemed to have forgotten that Sean was the one who left and moved to the United States. Why do they seem to favor the man more than her?When he learned about Gazer, she was aware that he was upset and resentful. Anger and resentment against her since, if she hadn't been put in that circumstance, she didn't seem to have any plans to tell him that they had a child.He didn't care how she felt when he chose Bianca and abandoned her, and neither did she.Yeah.Bianca...Even though she tried to convince herself that she had no interest in learning what had happened to the woman or the true nature of her relationship with Sean
They were eating dinner, and Sean had just left. He didn't stay up too late because he had to get up early the next morning to drive to Manila for a meeting. She was surprised because he traveled almost every day to visit their son. She was eating quietly when her mother spoke."Why are you allowing Sean to rent a room in town?" He is welcome to stay in Joshua's old room." Her mother asked her as she took a bite."He rents a room in town?" Surprised, she asked her mother again.Immediately, her father turned to face her mother as if to convey a message. Her mother's eyes widened as she realized that she didn't know anything about Sean renting a room in town.Now her father turned toward her."When are you going to settle your issues with Sean? You have a child. Think of your son, Yazmin." Her father's voice pleaded.She wished she could stop them from asking her that.She remained silent. Since her parents had nothing to do with her misunderstanding with Sean, she didn't want to say a
She wore a flimsy nightie as she hesitantly exited the bathroom. Two days after she and her son went to Sean's office, she met him again. Because of their last agreement...She could tell Sean had been waiting for her because he was sitting up on the bed. She felt uneasy, worried, and sad.Their son is the only thing that would connect them together.She knew she was excited to be reunited with him, but she also felt as though she would be hanged that day. She wiped the tears from her eyes and took a deep breath.When she came out of the bathroom, Sean immediately looked at her. They locked gazes. She notices more than just desire in his eyes. They shared the same blend of anguish as she did. She slowly approached him, sitting at the foot of the bed.When he picked her up earlier, they went straight to a hotel room. He took her to the hotel where they first met. Only then did Sean find out where she got their son's name from. The name of the hotel where their connection started is Gaz
Even though their hearts already knew that Baby Alyanah was their child, they still needed to have a DNA test done to comply with protocol. Once it was proven that the baby was indeed their child, they could formally file charges against those responsible at St. Therese Maternity Clinic, including Latonia, Patrick, and the mother-daughter pair of Manang Minda and Divina. Both of them were nervous as they looked at the test results. Their eyes widened in disbelief when they saw the confirmation that Baby Alyanah was truly theirs. Sean embraced her tightly, and a mix of emotions overwhelmed them at that moment. Visitors flocked to their home when they heard the news that their real child was alive. Their parents, siblings, and even their relatives brought their families to their home. They held a baptism for Baby Alyanah alongside a welcome and thanksgiving party for her. Even the young woman who was the biological mother of the deceased baby attended as a guest. They rep
Because crying doesn't help, even though she was scared, she tried to stay calm. She looked out the window and watched the scenery as they passed by.Even the smallest details, she crammed into her mind, hoping they'd be useful if she ever got the chance to escape the man.Her gaze shifted back to the floor of the man’s car. She suddenly felt a surge of hope when she saw something that could help her if he tried to harm her.They had passed mostly wooded areas, and it was still very dark.She noticed Patrick glancing at her now and then."If you agree, we can run away. 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. He must truly be insane.Instead of rejecting him, she just played along. It’s hard to anger people who seem to have mental problems."What about your job? What about Latonia?" She surprised herself by saying this calmly.She saw the excitement on his f
"Miss, if you don't give me the details of the woman who gave birth before me that night, you might get involved in the case even though you have nothing to do with it," she threatened the receptionist at St. Therese Maternity Clinic.She didn't contact Patrick anymore, especially when she saw that he was the one who spilled water with oil on the floor. She was afraid to confront him, not knowing what could happen to her if he found out that she knew.She went to the police and submitted the evidence she had about the man. He was already listed in the blotter at the station, and she was just waiting for instructions on the next steps.She wanted to inform Sean so that he could accompany her. She knew he would get angry once he found out. He might even go after the man, which was another thing she was afraid of.When she got home, she would tell her husband everything she had discovered and show him the video of the incident at Rajah Hotel.She really needed to know who the woman was w
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
She stayed in that dark corner while holding the baby.She didn’t know what to do with it. It was all Patrick’s fault—letting the baby live.She only used the man when she noticed how much he idolized her, practically worshiping the ground she walked on.It all started with a dummy account. She couldn’t move on after learning that Sean’s employee, whom she thought was an ordinary staff member, was actually his wife.Her father had been hoping Sean would end up with her. When she and Sean were together, everything seemed fine. Even though she heard rumors of him flirting with others, she didn’t mind much.After all, they played the same game. She didn’t want to be tied to one person either. She had her fair share of flings while in a relationship with Sean.But over time, she began to hope that he would take her seriously. She stopped entertaining other men and acted like the perfect, loyal girlfriend.She thought everything would fall into place, but then she started noticing how clos
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
Patrick picked her up in front of a convenience store. 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. Adding to it was the manipulation from a dummy account that eventually led her to deactivate her social media account after giving birth. She wanted peace of mind and even changed her number to
