"What did you say?" Reed couldn’t believe what he had just heard from Diana. It wasn’t entirely impossible for her to be pregnant by him. She had been his constant partner before he met Clarisa, though he had always used protection. Still, something might have gone wrong.He pulled at his hair in frustration. Problems seemed to be piling up. "How did this happen, Diana? We haven’t been together for a long time. And now you’re calling to say you’re pregnant?""Well... I hid my pregnancy from you. But I’ve realized that I shouldn’t deny our child a father," Diana replied.Reed took a moment to think. If he was indeed the father, he wouldn’t reject the child. The baby was innocent. However, he needed to be sure. He would get a DNA test after the baby was born, just in case Diana was lying."What do you want me to do, Diana?" he asked, his mind still blank and unsure of what to do."I want you to take responsibility for us, your child and me.""You know that’s not possible. I’m married to
When he arrived at the hospital, he found Clarisa’s friends—Patrick, Cyena, and Loren—standing outside her room. They looked at him as if they wanted to clarify something. "How is Clarisa?" he asked, breaking the silence, as none of them seemed willing to speak. "She's inside, it looks like she’s asleep... Reed, is it true that you’re also the father of Diana’s unborn child?" Patrick asked, giving him a piercing look while waiting for his answer. Reed felt like he was on the hot seat. "I-I don’t know. She disappeared for a long time and didn’t show up. The last time we saw each other was at my wedding with Clarisa..." "If she is really pregnant and I’m the father, I will take responsibility for the child, but I need to be sure. I’ll have the baby undergo a DNA test." Clarisa’s friends exchanged glances. He wanted to tell them to believe him and not Diana, but he had no evidence. Even he was confused by everything that was happening. He excused himself and entered his wife’s room
CLARISA: Today is the day she’s being discharged from the hospital. Her mother came to help pack her things, and Lolo Miguel was there to settle the hospital bill. "Dear, after you’re discharged, you’ll still be staying at the mansion," Lolo Miguel said. "But I don’t want to go there, Grandpa! I want to stay at our house!" she insisted. "That’s not possible, dear. You’re pregnant, and you need help with your pregnancy. Especially since you still have amnesia, you need someone to guide you. I’ll hire a private nurse for you." "But Grandpa, my mom and dad can take care of me!" She wanted to insist on staying at their house; she didn’t want to live under the same roof as that womanizing Reed. "My decision is final—you’ll stay at the mansion. I won’t risk the welfare of my future grandchild because of your stubbornness!" Lolo Miguel said firmly. She was stunned. In her entire life, she had never seen Lolo Miguel so angry. "Listen to Don Miguel, Clarisa. This is all for your own go
Her husband helped her out of the car once more. "Lolo, can I stay in a different room?" she pleaded with the elderly man. "No! You’ll stay in your room with your husband... that’s how it should be. Besides, you need someone with you, even when you sleep, to keep an eye on you," Don Miguel insisted. Clarisa frowned, while Reed secretly smiled. His grandfather would do anything to ensure they reconciled as a couple. "Come on, sweetheart... you need to rest," Reed said gently. Clarisa stormed off to their room, not bothering to wait for him. She was so irritated that she walked off angrily. When Reed entered the room, she was already sitting on the bed, waiting for him. "Let’s get one thing straight, Reed! I don’t care if Lolo says we have to sleep in the same room, but there’s no way I’m letting you sleep next to me in this bed! You stay on the sofa, and I’ll sleep on the bed! Understood?" "Yes, sweetheart..." Reed responded like a child, seemingly just following her lead. She
Once Reed was sure she was comfortable, he went into the bathroom. She was startled when he came out, completely naked, walking around their room casually. She thought he would have assumed she was asleep, but he didn’t realize she was watching him. Was he modeling or something? But in fairness, her husband did look quite handsome. His body was stunning—muscles defined, a flat stomach, and impressive abs... Wow! Her gaze traveled to his manhood. She gasped. How did something so big and long fit inside her? How did she handle it? Didn’t she lose consciousness when he entered her? Shit, his manhood was enormous. Her whole body suddenly heated up. Perhaps Reed sensed she wasn’t asleep yet and approached her. Still naked, he was now right in front of her. "Sweetheart... aren’t you asleep yet? Is something wrong?" Shit, he caught me not sleeping!!! "Uh, I’m having trouble falling asleep..." she lied. If only he knew she had been watching him all this time. "Do you need anything?"
“Iha, this is your private nurse, Janeth,” Don Miguel introduced. “Hi, Ms. Clarisa!” Janeth greeted the nurse. “Hi, Janeth...” She looked at the nurse. She was quite beautiful, like a model nurse. She must have some foreign blood; she was mestiza and tall. Is she a nurse or a model? she wondered to herself. She suddenly thought about her husband. Oh no, he’s going to be in trouble with his unfaithful husband again! This one might get pregnant too. She frowned. “What’s wrong, dear? Are you feeling anything unusual?” Don Miguel asked worriedly, perhaps noticing the change in her expression. “Ah, nothing, Lolo. The baby just moved a bit, so my stomach suddenly hurts,” she lied. “Ah, the baby! Baby, come out soon. Lolo is excited to see you!” Don Miguel said cheerfully. “Alright, you stay here while I take care of things at the orchard. Janeth, take care of Ms. Clarisa, don’t leave her side.” “Yes, Don Miguel.” Clarisa was bored at home. Don Miguel went off to the orchard, Reed w
“I’m not suspicious; that’s a fact! And I don’t care if you’re seeing other women… Go ahead and see as many as you want!” “Hahaha... You’re cute, sweetheart. Don’t be sulky; our baby might turn out to be ugly if you keep it up!” “Hmmp... Fine, I’m going to sleep!” “Good night, sweetheart. I love you!” “I love you too, your face!” she replied and ended the call. Sigh... What else does he need to do for his wife? His patience with Clarisa was growing. He secretly smiled, knowing he was starting to win back his wife’s favor. A little more tenderness, and she would be his again. A little while later, he heard a knock at the door. He straightened himself up, put on some shorts, as he was only in his briefs after his shower. After putting on his shorts, he opened the door. It was probably just Aling Nena. They were the only ones in the house. “Reed! It’s good to see you here!” He was mistaken… It was Glenda. She was wearing just a small piece of fabric. He knew she was flirting wit
The friends were already by the pool. It had been a long time since they last saw each other. If it weren’t for their project, they wouldn’t have gotten together again.Each of them had their own businesses, but they decided to form a company together and plan to build a subdivision.They had acquired a one-thousand-hectare lot in Batangas, which they would develop into a subdivision.While waiting for their dinner, one of them sent over some beer so they could have a drink first... just to warm up a bit.After a while, Glenda arrived, bringing the pork stew her friends had asked to be prepared."Wow, that looks delicious, Glenda!""Yes, Sir! My mom’s cooking is really good!" she said, playfully charming her friends, even batting her eyes. He just sighed."Can I take a picture with you handsome gentlemen?" Glenda asked."Why? We’re not celebrities," Jon chimed in—he was the most playful among them."Oh, Sir! You’re even more handsome than actors! You look like F4! The ones from that T
