THE UNWILLING BRIDE (ENGLISH) CHAPTER 63
"Why did you come back, Diana?" Reed asked angrily. Only the two of them were left. Clarisa was gone."I saw the video of Clarisa, and I wanted to comfort you. I hadn’t shown up for a long time because I was planning to step aside for you two... I had decided to raise our child alone and not disturb you, but what did Clarisa do to you? She just deceived you... she messed with your head!"His jaw tightened at her words."Tomorrow, I’ll bring our child here... we’ll live here so you won’t be alone, and someone can take care of Blue. Poor Blue, without a mother... Don’t worry, Reed, I’ll take care of Blue as if he were my own."She grabbed his shoulder, but he shrugged her off. "You can’t live here..." he replied simply."But why? Your child has rights here... he’s your flesh and blood!... He’s also a Villaruel!" Diana insisted."Give me a DNA result for him... Prove that he’s really my son.""Of course he’s yours! What do you think, that I’m like Clarisa?"It wasn’t that he was a bad fa

REED:Reed was still in bed... Clarisa had left hours ago, but he hadn’t come out of his room yet. He lay there, staring at the ceiling... his head ached. It felt like it was being crushed, and he couldn't understand why. He rubbed his head in an attempt to relieve the pain.What had Diana given him that caused such a headache? He knew she had drugged him because he couldn’t move when she was doing things to him... he had just submitted.He wanted to thank Clarisa for coming when she did, preventing Diana’s bad intentions from happening. But this was the price he paid... Clarisa was furious, thinking he had a relationship with Diana.What was he going to do now? How could he correct Clarisa’s mistaken belief that he was with Diana?Suddenly, he sat up. He would go after Clarisa, chase after his wife... He would explain to her that there was no one else, and he was willing to take her back into his life. They would move far away to keep Clarisa away from the prying eyes of gossips and

CLARISA:When they arrived home, she first invited Anton inside. She saw their gossiping neighbors whispering again, probably because she was with another man, but she didn’t care about that anymore. Anton was her friend. He had helped her a lot, and that was something their nosy neighbors didn’t know. She didn’t feel the need to explain anything to them.“Who is he, my child?” her mother asked when they entered their house. Her mom and dad were waiting for her return.“This is Anton, Mom... He helped me escape from that rapist’s place before. He knows that the video that rapist is spreading is not true.”“Good morning, Auntie...” Anton greeted her mother.“Good morning to you too, Anton... Thank you for helping our child,” her mother said.“So, what happened in your conversation with Sir Reed, Clarisa?” her father asked.“He still doesn’t believe me, Dad... And Diana is already at their house... his ex-girlfriend who is also pregnant... I saw them doing something inside our own room.

CLARISA:“ Maria!! Huhuhu... how is Blue?” Her tears flowed again upon seeing her child’s nanny. They hugged each other tightly.“Blue is doing well, Ma’am... Don’t worry, I’ll take care of him as much as I can. I don’t believe you could do what they’re accusing you of in that video...” Maria said, also in tears.“Thank you, Maria... that means a lot to me... You take care of Blue for now... I’ll come back for him when the time is right. All I want is for him to be safe in the hands of Reed’s new girlfriend...”“I’ll take care of him, Ma’am. No matter what happens, I won’t leave Blue. Here’s my cellphone number... call me so you’ll know what’s happening here in the mansion.”She cried again at Maria’s words. She never expected her to help her. “Thank you again, Maria... it means a lot to me that you and Mang Isko believe I couldn’t do what Reed is accusing me of. If possible, let’s keep this a secret... we don’t know what’s going on in Reed’s mind... he might kick you out if he find

She shifted her attention back to the view outside the window.She remembered her friends Loren, Patrick, and Cyena... They hadn’t spoken since everything happened. The events unfolded so quickly. She had no way to contact her friends; Fernando had her phone. She hadn’t made a social media account yet... Did she really want to prioritize that over her problems? Her friends probably saw the video that Fernando spread, and they were likely worried about her... She felt sad for her friends. As much as she wanted to inform them about her situation, she had no way to do so... She didn’t want to go to the hospital where her friends worked... She didn’t want to be seen wandering around; the video was still too fresh in the public eye.Surely her friends would understand if she didn’t reach out to them... For now, she needed to focus on herself.Suddenly, tears started to flow again... She thought of her child, Blue... She hadn’t even been able to see or hold her baby in the last moments befo

"So you really plan to get back together with that Clarisa?"He was startled... it was Diana speaking from behind him. He thought she had left after taking Blue."Why are you still here?" he asked Diana, not answering her question."Can't you see, Reed? Your wife is fooling you! Are you really going to be that stupid? What will people say about you? That you're an idiot?""I don't care what people say... all I need is my wife!"That's bullshit, Reed! I'm here for you! I've loved you all along! Clarisa has already forgotten her love for you... she's practically in a daze, but you still love her? And now this... there's clear evidence, isn't there? It's right in front of you, and you're still blind to it!""You have no say in my decisions! I will choose my own path, not you!""Fine, I won't interfere with you, but you need to stand by your child... he needs a father too!""Didn't I tell you to provide proof that he’s really my son?" he said angrily to Diana."S-Sure, I'll get a DNA test

He had been waiting outside the emergency room for almost two hours when the doctor finally emerged. He quickly stood up to meet the doctor. "Doc, how is my grandfather?" "He's doing well, Mr. Villaruel. He just needs some rest. If possible, he should avoid stress..." "Okay, doc..." "In a little while, he can be moved to a private room to rest more comfortably," the doctor added. After the doctor left, he sat back down in the waiting area, feeling a weight lift from his chest. Thank goodness his grandfather was okay. He could finally relax. Moments later, his phone buzzed. It was Jon calling. "Hello, bro?" he said as he answered. "Pre, just to confirm... the guy we had locked up is out. His name is Fernando, and he lives in Laguna. I went to his house, but he wasn't there. There were broken bottles and blood all around. That's where they took Clarisa... that's the place from the video." His jaw clenched at what he heard. He wanted to kill that Fernando. "Whose blood is it? C

He had been waiting there for almost two hours, but Clarisa, Nanay Celia, and Tatay Kardo were still nowhere to be found. Where could they have gone? he wondered to himself. He stood up from his seat and entered Clarisa's room. A few clothes were scattered on her bed—probably what his wife had taken off earlier. He opened her dresser and was shocked to find the jewelry he had given her. Why was it there? He thought it was supposed to be at their house. He took the jewelry and tucked it into his pocket. Then he headed to the room of Clarisa's parents, feeling increasingly anxious. He hoped that what he feared wasn't true. The room of her parents was neat, but he noticed a folded piece of paper resting on the table. He picked it up and read: "Dear Don Miguel, I hope this finds you in good health. We apologize for not being able to inform you that we have left the estate. Our daughter has been deeply hurt by what Sir Reed did to her. Our daughter got almost raped by the g

CLARISA: She woke up with a throbbing headache. She was lying in bed and had fallen asleep. Glancing around, she realized it wasn’t her room, but she was still in the hotel where the convention was being held. The setup of this room was identical to hers. She tried to recall what happened before she lost consciousness. Her memory was hazy, but she distinctly remembered Albert giving her wine, and then everything went black. She bolted upright. Where was she? She looked for her cellphone. She knew she had put it in her pocket before passing out. "Good, you're awake," Albert said, stepping out of the bathroom, freshly showered. "What did you do to me? Why am I here?" she asked, her voice filled with confusion and fear. "Did you think I would just forget what you did to me? I won’t let anyone else have you, not even your ex-husband! I’ve been waiting for you for so long, only to find out you have a family here in the Philippines?" "What are you talking about, Albert? I neve

REED: Reed was excited to see Blue and Clarisa together again. He was determined to join them this time. In his mind, he kept thinking about how much he wanted to see his wife again. He had already talked to Blue, who promised to help him convince Clarisa not to return to America. He just hoped she’d agree and give him another chance to win her back. He had been chatting with his wife earlier, pretending to be Blue so she would respond. Every time his phone chimed, his heart fluttered, knowing it was Clarisa. God, I missed her so much! Even though they had just seen each other yesterday, he wanted to run to her and hold her tightly. For two years, he had lived in worry and search, unsure if she was alive or dead. Why had it never crossed his mind that she might have returned to America? He recalled seeing her for the first time yesterday... He was speechless. She was even more beautiful now. Her once straight hair was now curly. He didn’t mind—it suited her. But there was somethin

CLARISA:She was getting ready to sleep when suddenly, there was a knock on her door. She frowned. Who could it be? She didn’t order room service, and she and Blue had already eaten at the restaurant earlier.She checked the peephole before opening the door. It was Albert, and he looked drunk.She opened the door slightly but kept the chain lock in place, allowing only a small gap. If he tried anything inappropriate, he wouldn’t be able to enter her room.“What are you doing here, Albert?” she asked.“Let’s talk, Clarisa! You led me on... I thought you just weren’t ready to answer me, but it turns out you’re married and have a child?!” he exclaimed, raising his voice due to his drunken state.“I never led you on, Albert. Not once did I give you any reason to think you had a chance with me! You don’t know my reasons for keeping my marriage and child a secret, so you have no right to talk to me like that!” she retorted angrily.“But you know I love you, Clarisa! I’ve loved you for so lo

REED:His jaw tightened as he watched his wife with another man holding her. He wanted to run over and punch him... No one could take his wife away!“Daddy? Is he Mommy's boyfriend?”“No, sweetheart... didn’t Mommy say he’s not her boyfriend?”“Why didn’t you kiss Mommy earlier? Are you two fighting?” Blue asked him. He never thought his child would be so observant at such a young age.“Mommy is a little upset with me, sweetheart... because Daddy did some bad things in the past... but Daddy won’t do them again...”“You should say sorry to Mommy, then!” his child insisted.“Okay, sweetheart, I will do that, but you have to help Daddy!”“How?”“Convince your Mommy to come back home and live with us, and not go back to America...”“She’s going back to America? She’s going to leave us again?”“Yes, so you need to make her promise not to leave... you’re the only one who can stop her. She loves you so much that she can’t say no to you.”“Okay, Daddy, I’ll do what you want as long as Mommy d

“Hey, honey!”Their attention turned to the person speaking behind them. It was Albert. She suddenly frowned. Why was he here again?He had followed her despite her telling him not to. He was so annoying... it was irritating!And he even called her honey in front of her child and Reed! She shot Reed a glance, and his jaw tightened upon seeing the man.“Who is he, Mommy?” Blue asked, frowning.“Mommy? You call her Mommy?” Albert said in surprise at what he heard from Blue.“Who are they, honey?” Albert asked her.“Don’t call me honey, Albert! How many times do I have to tell you?” she replied firmly.“Who are they?” he asked her again.“T-this is my baby Blue and my ex-husband…” she introduced, not wanting to explain further. But she knew Albert well. He was persistent and wouldn’t let her go. She also didn’t want to deny her husband and child in front of him.“Husband... not ex-husband!” Reed corrected her. She just raised an eyebrow at him.“Are you the one who was with my mommy on T

“Daddy!!!” Blue shouted as he broke free from her and ran to his father, asking to be carried.“Daddy, look! Mommy is already here!” Blue exclaimed, pointing at her.“I can see that, son…” he replied softly, his gaze never leaving her. She remained with her head down.“Maria…” she turned to the nanny. “Didn’t I say it should just be us?” she whispered.“Yes, Ma'am... I didn’t know Sir would follow us,” the nanny replied, looking a bit nervous. She hadn’t expected to see Reed there.“It’s not Maria’s fault, sweetheart. Don’t blame her,” Reed said, having overheard their conversation.“Daddy, let’s sit here next to Mommy,” their son said, still in Reed’s arms. The table was quiet, with no one wanting to break the silence. They were all just feeling each other out.“Um, I’ll leave you two for a moment, Ma'am Clarisa, Sir Reed,” Maria said, standing up. She didn’t wait for their response, not wanting to interrupt but wanting to give them time alone as a couple.“How have you been? You loo

He spent the whole day at home. Maybe once he left, Blue and Ate Maria would leave too.He shouldn’t lose sight of the two of them. He couldn’t let them slip away.It was nearly five o’clock. He saw Maria talking on the phone earlier, but he didn’t ask any questions. He pretended he hadn’t noticed. He knew it was Clarisa. She must have told her where they would meet.Blue and Maria were still in the room. She was dressing the child. They were probably getting ready to leave. Maria had already informed the driver to take them later. He didn’t want to get involved in their plans; he had his own plans.He just wanted Maria and Blue to leave peacefully to meet Clarisa, and then he would show up.As soon as Maria and Blue came out of the room, Blue approached him to say goodbye.“Daddy, we’re just going to meet Mommy, okay?” his son said, holding a bouquet of roses. He had asked his yaya to buy it earlier to give to his mommy.“Aren’t you going to come with us?”“Maybe next time, son…”“O

“Dad, where's Mom?” Blue greeted him, waiting for him at the gate of their house with Maria.“Sorry, son, Mom is still at work, so she can't come home yet. But I promise you I will bring her here, okay? Don't be sad…”“Promise?” he asked sadly.“Y-yes, son…” Even he was unsure of his answer. He didn't know if he could keep the promise to his child. But he didn’t want to see his son sad. Blue had been waiting a long time for his mommy. He hoped that Clarisa would at least think of them too.“Let’s go inside…” he said, taking the child's hand. They walked into the house in silence. Blue still looked sad. He felt helpless to cheer him up; only his mommy could make him happy that day.As soon as they entered the house, the phone rang.“Maria, please answer it,” he instructed Maria, suspecting it was another prank caller who never spoke whenever he answered.Maria quickly walked over to the phone to answer it.“Hello?”“Maria, this is Clarisa.”“Ma’am!!!” Maria exclaimed in surprise.“Don’

She had just finished getting dressed when someone knocked on her door. It must be Albert. They startled each other when she opened the door."You look stunning, honey...""Hmph, flatterer... Let's go before we're late.""Let's go..." he replied, holding her arm. She wanted to shake him off, but she was afraid he might get mad and say she was being difficult. Lately, he had been getting touchy with her. She didn't want anyone touching her, especially not a man. She still had a phobia of men, probably because of Fernando, who almost raped her.When they arrived, there were already a lot of people in the convention hall where their convention would be held. Albert stuck closer to her, holding her at the waist. He was acting like a boyfriend. She was annoyed, but there were media people around, and she didn't want to embarrass Albert."Good morning, Dr. Smith! Can we interview you?" a reporter asked Albert."Sure! Sure!" he replied, smiling. She didn’t want to join in, but he tightened h
