MA'AM, Miss Janice doesn't want to open the door and she said that she doesn't want to eat yet."
Nica wanted to raise an eyebrow as she heard what the maid said. They were at the table for lunch and Chris' mother called her sister to join them.
"What kind of drama is on her mind this time?" Nica whispered to herself as she looked away.
"Are you okay?" Chris asked worriedly to the girl.
Nica smiled at the young man before standing up. "I'll just call my sister."
"Yes, you better call her, Hija. I already talked to her earlier and told her that she should apologize to you and not to me." Luisa agreed with her. Luisa also felt sorry for Janice earlier, she cried and said that she regretted what she had done. She sighed as she remembered what Janice had said earlier.
"I'm sorry, Auntie, if I'd looked down on you. I'm just doing what I think was right to change Chris's mind and marry me instead."
Luisa sadly watched Janice cry and just let
"How's the feeling princess for a few days here?" Margaret sarcastically asked Nica when the two of them were left alone. She and her husband arrived earlier because their wedding is the day after tomorrow.Nica gave an insulting smile to her stepmother. "Isn't it obvious for you to ask me anyway?"Margaret lifted up the corner of her lip and raised her right eyebrow. She glared angrily at Nica when she smirked at her."Surely you can enjoy having fun, just don't forget that everything you have now, will have an exchange someday. I'll make sure your heart will be torn in pieces." Margaret threatened Nica.Those words gave Nica unpleasant feelings, her stepmother was like a witch casting a spell before her. She quickly turned and left her even though she is not yet done with talking."Margaret, did you have a fight with someone?" Luisa asked her friend when she saw the anger on her face. She saw her standing alone in the living room and looking outs
THE sun has not risen, but a commotion started in Chrismith's house. Even though Nica's head was still heavy and she still wanted to close her eyes, she forced herself to get up. Her headache was exacerbated when her stepmother's shrill voice dominated."Margaret, calm down, we can only settle this with proper conversation." Luisa pleaded to her friend. She looked at her son, who just finished putting on clothes, confusion was visible on his face."How can I calm down, Luisa? She's the daughter of mine and they are both naked!" Margaret pointed at their offspring.Janice went in a corner of her bed as she held the blanket over her chest to cover the nakedness of her body."I'm sorry, Aunt, but I don't know how I'm here and what happened to us." Chris looked at his mother with eyes asking for help, whilst combing his messy hair using his fingers."I don't need your sorry, and don't tell me you don't know because you're not here if you didn't touch m
Gregory approached them to clear things up. Even though he does not know the root of this problem, he could not allow his son to marry a different woman.Margaret wiped her tears before facing the husband of her friend. "But how about my daughter whom your son touched last night?""I know my son," Gregory said whilst staring intently at Janice.Janice is unable to meet Chris' father's stares. She felt like he was investigating her."It's already here and your daughter also liked what happened between her and my son. And according to what I heard, they were both drunk last night. Anyhow, we can't destroy their relationship because of a third party." Even though Gregory did not hit directly to the point, he knows that they understood what he meant."Nica is also your daughter and she is the one destined for my son," Gregory added.Janice could not bear the shame, thus she ran back to her room. It now turns out that she is to blame
CHRISMITH carefully opened the door of the room and entered his head into spot Nica. "Babe?" he called her.It may seem gay, but for the first time, he is scared of a lady. Even toward his mother, not once have he felt afraid because he never did a big mistake anyway."Go inside and don't just peek in there.""Shit!" Chris exclaimed when his father suddenly spoke behind him."You look like a thief just now." Gregory laughed at his son's shocked face."Dad! You know I'm looking for the perfect timing, do you want me to have a lump on my wedding day?" Chris complained to his father."That's what you get for being careless. You nearly got forced into someone because you're such a sleepyhead!"Chris clacked before replying, "I don't know how I was in Janice's room. Believe me or not, Dad, I don't remember whatever happened last night after I separated with Nica.""Let's investigate that matter later. Face your wife-to-be first to m
"YOUR sister can't attend your wedding because she had to go back to the company." Alfonso informed Nica after she had been styled."The company is more important than my special day?" Nica lifted up her eyebrow whilst looking at her stepmother. She looks like she is going to a funeral."Don't act like you're sad, we know here that your happiness could reach heaven because your sister isn't here." Margaret sniggered at Nica."Margaret, please, let's not ruin this day. Put aside your grudge against each other even just for today!" Luisa said to her friend before she approached Nica to help her with her wedding gown."I'm not a faker like that girl to pretend that everything's okay!" Margaret replied angrily and glared at Nica."It's not your son who's aggrieved here so everything's all right for you!" Margaret confronted Luisa. "My poor daughter, what honor will she present to her future husband when she meets him?" Margaret's look was pitiful
"I MIGHT go home late because something needs to be finished," Chris informed Nica while they are at the dining table. Nica just nodded as she observed her half-sister and stepmother through her peripheral vision. "Will the launching of the new clothing brand continue?" "Yes, Janice already made a few designs so the event that should've been held this past week will be continued." "I'm really so proud of you, my daughter!" Margaret said happily and clapped. Janice smiled shyly at them and thanked Chris. "Thank you and you approved of my designs." "I should be the one thanking you because you still managed to perfectly do the designs even though we had some misunderstandings days ago," Chris said with a smile. "How about you, Nica, don't you have anything to contribute to the company?" Margaret asked sarcastically. "I did a lot of contributions, as a matter of fact, he will do everything for me." Nica grinned from ear to
Eight o'clock in the evening, Chris was still in the company and he looks at his phone from time to time.Janice noticed that and the young man's attention was not on her even though she had been speaking to him and was trying to impress him."I told you, that sister of mine will never change. She can't let go of her bad habit of hanging out with anyone at night.""I know you and my wife are not on good terms, but it's still not right for you to continue to try to discredit her to me." He rebuked Janice in irritation. He is in a bad mood since both Bheng and Nica could not be contacted."Sorry, I just worry about you because you're my friend and I don't want to see you miserable because of my sister." Janice sounded sad and disappointed.Chris could not feel conscience for Janice's concern and the way he acted. Nica occupies his mind right now and he is worried about her.Janice was frowning when she leaves the young man's side and join the
EVEN though she feels weak, Nica tried to open her eyes and see her surroundings. She wants to hurt herself because she fell into the enemy's bait again. She could not believe someone she treats as a nice friend was Philip's confederate. She did not hesitate to go to her when she called. She was so sad and was even crying, thus she went where she was drinking alone. Nica had no idea that Philip was also there. It was too late to leave because Xtine made her drink something that caused her to weaken. She could not fight when Philip carried her and took her in his car. Chris was furious when he saw Philip and his arm that was wrapped around his wife's waist. "Hey, Bro! Don't be mad, I only burrowed your wife for a few hours." Philip has a demonic smile on his lips when they faced each other. Chris calmed himself first and he was worried his wife would get hurt. She is obviously not in herself right now and she has no strength. "Babe, help me!"
