THE REMARRIED HEIRESS 58
CATALINADante and I arrived at my father’s company on a cold and windy morning. Glaring at the company name above made me throw up. G&R Enterprise? James added his last name, which infuriates me. He has no right to change the name.Dante held my hand as we made our way to the entrance. Because there were so many bodyguards, the security guard had to let us in, even though he was prepared to prevent us.The familiarity in every corner of this building welcomed us. The atmosphere, the huge portrait of my father hanging on the wall, and the employees who are stunned to see us. We headed to the VIP elevator, ignoring those eyes and murmurs as we walked past them. I tried to be calm, but deep inside, I was fuming.I need to find the Rolex owner. They bought that watch using the company card and even used the company name. For what? To play it safe?“Calm down,” Dante spoke softly “I am calm.”“You're crushing my hand.” He intertwined our fingers. “And sweating.”With a deep exhale, I s

CATALINA “RIDICULOUS!!”I took a seat on the swivel chair and slowly spun around. I played with the tip of my hair while humming, thinking of an obvious response to let out.“I'm the biological daughter. So, why not?”“Dad gave everything to me!”I slammed my hands on the mahogany table and stopped my chair from moving.“Proof.”Her eyes quivered. “W-What?”“Give us the proof, sis. The last will of Dad will do.” I closed my eyes and leaned against my seat, but the long silence of Fiona made me open my eyes again and confusedly gaze at her.“You don't have it?”I knew it!“We do, witch!”What a liar.The corner of my lips lifted. “Show us. Summoned my father's lawyer here now.”Everyone’s eyes fell on Fiona and James, waiting for the response of the two. Their silence and avoiding our eyes are making it more obvious.They should have planned it before claiming something they don’t own.I let out a deep breath. “What's the hesitation, Ms. Gomez?” “He's out of the country.”My brows f

CATALINAI stepped back, leaning against the wall, as my hands found the handrails. I’m not even a bit nervous because of how politely he commanded me to come with him.With a glance at his overall presence, he doesn't look like someone who's after my life. Especially the way he holds his lower back from doing 360 degrees for three minutes straight.“Look at me.” He raised his upper body. He’s quite obedient, huh? Is he a royal guard?My phone starts ringing. Abby is calling, but I rejected the call.“Why would I come with you? Do I know you?” I asked while typing a message to Abby instead.“Someone wants to talk to you–”“Who? Tell me the name and let him or her make an appointment.” I put down my phone and was about to press the button to go back to the parking basement. But the man blocked my way with an apologetic look and pressed the open button.If he thinks this is not a nice gesture, why was he doing this then? I stepped back again and crossed my arms, getting annoyed.“If

CATALINAThat was the first. He called me by my name and not the nickname he made for me.Dante’s piercing gaze at Mrs. Yu made me panic and rise from my seat. He looks infuriated for some reason. It's obvious they don't have a good relationship.The corner of Mrs. Yu's lips lifted as she ignored Dante’s presence behind her and just enjoyed her iced tea.Dante walked to us with a big stride.“D-Dante–” However, he held my wrist and pulled me to the door. “Wait! Mrs. Yu–” The door shut, and I saw Mrs. Yu waving at me through the window, wearing a smile.She doesn't seem angry. Dante forced me to get in the car and leave the place.“Isn't it too rude to leave like that?” I scowled at him.He did not even acknowledge her presence. The same with Mrs. Yu. They were having a silent battle because of that expansion thing.“Don't meet her again.”“Why?” It took me a few seconds to realize what Mrs. Yu meant. “Does she want me to work with her?”“No,” he firmly stated. “Then why?”“What di

CATALINA “What are your thoughts, Abby?” I asked while in the elevator, waiting to reach the fifteenth floor.“He's willing to help.”I immediately look at her, amazed that she believes James’s words. “For real?”“For his own benefit.” She shrugged nonchalantly.I couldn't help but let out a small laugh. “Pity him. He's using the situation to save his face. He believes I'm still the sluggish, dimwitted Catalina he knew from before. Someone he could easily trick. Do I look like a stupid person, Abby?”“No, ma'am.”With a glare at her reflection through the elevator door, I scoffed.“You're just saying that because you work for me.”“I work for Mr. Marcellos, ma'am.”I rolled my eyes in annoyance. “Yeah, yeah. You're really loyal to your one and only master. I won't hate you for that. I also won't hate you if you tell him my every move.”“He only thinks about what's safe and best for you, ma'am.”With her remarks, I turned to her. She's not even giving me any emotions. Is she an AI?“S

CATALINAUncle Mondo, Ethan, and the British guy Ben.I bet the latter.He was the only one who wanted to finish what he started weeks ago and the only one with a strong motive to hurt me.Based on the information I gathered from these employees, Ben was terminated because he didn't report to work for almost a week without permission. His reason? He is looking for his missing girlfriend. On the day Dad humiliated him, it was also the day his girlfriend's body was found. Unfortunately, she died while pregnant. Imagine the loss of two important people in your life. It was devastating and heartbreaking just to listen to the story. How much more if you actually experience it?But he's wrong here. Why did he take out his anger on me against my father? He even hurt my baby. Even if he says he didn't know, it still won't change the fact that he killed my child. I wish I had killed that stupid Ben instead.Frustrated, I messed up my hair as I couldn't do anything but get mad at the deceased.

CATALINA ‘The number you have dialed is out of coverage area. Please try–’I press the end button and throw my phone on the table with a sigh. Only five minutes are left before midnight, and James, my husband, is still not home. He wasn't answering his phone earlier, and now it seems his phone was turned off."Is he that busy?"Or... Did he forget it?My heart throbbed as my thumb played with my wedding ring. It was our wedding anniversary, but he didn't greet me. I was disappointed when I woke up this morning without him by my side.Tears welled up in my eyes as I stared down at the three pregnancy kits placed on the table. Yeah, it has two lines… It's positive… I'm pregnant. But I don't know how to tell James. We didn't talk for a week because we had a misunderstanding. My fingers fidgeted as the word ‘mother’ kept rummaging in my head. My mother left me when I was 8, and now... I'm becoming one.Will James be glad about it? He will, right? I will become a good, I mean, great moth

CATALINA I tightly shut my eyes when the sunlight hit my face as I stepped out of the lawn area of the women's penitentiary. My eyes were swollen from crying the whole night, and I couldn't believe I was sleeping on a cold floor in a small room with two unfamiliar women. While the case is still ongoing, I need to stay here until my innocence is proven. I still couldn't move on about the passing of my father, but everyone accused me of murdering the person I cherished in my entire life.They said he was poisoned by the food I delivered to him. But I don't remember delivering any food to my father's house. Fingerprints were discovered in the food pack, and it belonged to me, which is absurd.My chest tightened at the fact that no one believed me. Not even my husband, who didn't visit me since I was captured out of my will. A woman suddenly pushed me behind, causing me to walk forcibly to the lawn. They say we can play on this huge lawn for an hour under the sun. But I want to tuck my

CATALINAYvette’s scowl greeted me when I arrived in her office to get some documents. She scoffed as she took off her eyeglasses and leaned against her chair. Her pink cheeks and playful laugh flashed in my head. She was indeed having fun that night.“Hangover?” I smirked. “I shouldn't have comforted you.”“Comforted me? Oh, so you were comforting me last night. I thought that we were competing to see who gets drunk first.”She rolled her eyes. “Seriously? Damn it.” It’s obvious she only took advantage of my ‘not in the mood to talk’ just to get hold of the bottles of wine and get wasted for a night.With a groan, she massaged her temples while I couldn't help but smile. Seeing her suffer made me feel delighted, too. Was that not a good thing?“And it's your fault that your dear husband scolded me,” My smile faded and Dante’s face last night flashed like lightning through my head. When he came into that VIP room to pick us up until we arrived at his private jet… the time I confess
THE REMARRIED HEIRESS 56
CATALINADante strode inside the station, joining us in the unpleasant scenario. I'm more ashamed that he always witnessed this kind of event and I'm always involved, not even respecting his name in public.Dante walked past James as if he were just one of the polluted air particles that he did not care about at all. I looked away when he reached me and ran his fingers through my hair.“Don't provoke him,” he whispered, which made me look up at him. “I'm afraid he won't think twice to really harm you.”I know he won't hurt me. Not inside the police station. He would be dumb if he did that.I nodded without a word. He sighs deeply and turns to the man who puts Fiona inside the cell. “I'm the complainant.”“You put her in that filthy place?!” James exclaimed. So, he really thinks I made this to his beloved Fiona? Wow! He's really something.“Yeah, got a problem with that?” Dante arrogantly responded.“You arrogant asshole!”My brows furrowed. “Are you referring to yourself?”“Don't i

CATALINA“Whose land are you claiming again, sweetie?”I got Fiona’s attention. Her nose flared, her teeth gritted, and her eyes were burning with rage as soon as they landed on mine.“YOU!” She growled. “Me?” I pointed at myself innocently. “Ah, indeed. You claimed my father’s properties–”“YOU DID THIS! LET ME OUT OF HERE!”Dragging the stool I found in the corner, I purposely sat in front of her, three meters away from her cell. Crossing my legs, I release a smirk, making her even more annoyed.“Accusing someone without proof is a crime.” “I’M NOT ACCUSING YOU! I’M TELLING THE TRUTH, YOU BITCH!”She aggressively shook the steel bars, creating an unpleasant noise that made me roll my eyes. I didn't know that she was capable of acting so wild in public. Isn't she ashamed of these men, watching her with displeasure in their eyes?But anyway, it's in her nature, so I should get used to it. Maybe I can play with her so I won't get bored while waiting for the captain's return.“You an
