"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.

    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 to the conductor's shout... They were already in Quezon Province... She glanced at her mother and father, who had fallen asleep during the trip. "Mom, Dad, wake up. We're almost there," she gently nudged her parents. They immediately became alert. "Sir, we’ll get off at the next stop," she told the conductor. "Are we almost there, dear?" her mother asked. "When we get off, we'll still need to take a jeepney, Mom. The place we're going to is in the barrio." "Oh, is that so... it really is far, isn't it? We've been traveling for hours." "It's good that it's far, Mom... no one will recognize us there." "That's true, dear... this is where we'll start a new life." She felt sad again. "I wonder how my baby is doing? Maybe he's hungry by now." "Don't worry about your child for now... I'm sure Sir Reed is taking good care of him. Plus, Maria is there to look after Blue." "You're right, Mom. I'll call Ate Maria later... I'll check on my baby." "That's up to you

    REED'S POV:Reed returned home with a heavy heart, carrying milk for Blue. He wasn't sure if he had bought the right one—Clarisa always knew about these things. Today, he realized just how lost he was without her... It felt like a huge part of his life was missing."Sir Reed, you're back. How is Don Miguel?" Isko asked."Grandpa is doing fine,He just needs plenty of rest.""That's good to hear, sir. By the way, your girlfriend stopped by earlier."His face suddenly brightened. "Really? Clarisa came? Where is she? Is she inside?""Oh no, not Ma’am Clarisa, sir... It was Diana."Reed's jaw clenched at the mention of her name. She was another source of trouble in his life. If only she hadn’t come into his room, Clarisa wouldn’t have gotten so angry with him."Why would you say she's my girlfriend, Isko? She's not. I have a wife, and that's Clarisa!""My apologies, sir... It's just that Ma'am Diana’s been acting like a queen here since she found out Ma’am Clarisa left. A-and I saw the two

    Maria has arrived from the drug store. It was just in time for Blue to wake up, so he was able to feed. At first, he didn’t want the milk because it wasn’t what he usually drinks—he was looking for his mommy's breast milk. But maybe because he was hungry, he eventually drank the formula milk.“Maria, please take care of Blue for now. I’ll just go back to the hospital to check on grandpa… he still hasn’t woken up. It’s a good thing Clarisa’s friends are there. They’re the ones looking after grandpa while I’m away.”“All right, Sir. I’ll take care of Blue here.”He stepped out of the house and headed straight to his car, bringing along some of his things. He knew his grandfather wouldn't be able to go home yet due to his condition.As he drove, he kept glancing at the road, still holding on to the hope that he might spot Clarisa somewhere.If only it were that easy... If only finding his wife were that simple. But he knew deep down it wasn’t. As much as he didn’t want to admit it, he kn

    "Why don't you know where your wife is? ... You're her husband ... you should know, right? ... Is it because you're too busy with your other woman ... and you've already kicked your wife out? ... What kind of man are you?""Pops, it's not like that!""I heard everything you talked about ... I feel sorry for Clarisa. She was expecting us ... to be on her side, but we were the first to insult her ... We didn't even bother to find out what really happened ... and you, you jumped right into another ... woman's arms." He struggled to speak clearly but was out of breath.This must be the reason why his grandfather lost consciousness earlier. He saw what happened between him and Diana and how he kicked Clarisa out."That's not true, Pops! I'm not cheating on Clarisa. I just can't explain why Diana was in our room that day!""Where is Clarisa? ... Bring her back to the mansion!" His words were firm.He bowed his head. He didn’t know how to tell him that Clarisa and her parents had already lef

    They were both silent for a moment after Diana left. Neither of them wanted to break the silence.“Lolo... I’m sorry about Diana. I don’t know why she showed up again. She hadn’t made any contact for a long time, but now that there’s a problem, she suddenly appears to stir things up...”“Is it true, Ken... that her child is yours?”“I-I don’t know... but the DNA test came back positive. I don’t want to reject the child just because I don’t like his mother.”“Think about it carefully, Ken... because from what I see, Diana will be a big headache.”“Right now, my concern is Clarisa, Lolo... I don’t want to waste time thinking about that worthless Diana.”His grandfather didn’t respond, simply closing his eyes, seemingly exhausted from their situation. Reed felt pity for him, but there was nothing he could do either.*********************************They were now back at the mansion, having spent three days in the hospital. Even though Lolo Miguel insisted on being discharged early, Reed

    “You can’t live here, and that’s final!”“If that’s the case, Kiel and I will just come here every day so the two siblings can bond.”He had no more words to say to her persistence.“Maria... can you please prepare some food for us? We’re hungry.” Diana turned to the nanny with a sweet command and sat beside him.Maria just frowned, knowing that Diana was only putting on a show because she was in front of her.“I’m sorry, Ma’am Diana, but that’s not my job. My job is to take care of Blue, not to serve you.” Maria replied politely.Diana shot a sharp look at the nanny. “Look how that nanny treats me, Reed!” she complained.Reed felt like laughing at Diana’s reaction; she couldn’t even boss Maria around.“Maria is right, Diana; it’s not her job to do what you’re asking. If you want something, go to the kitchen and tell the staff.”“Hmmmp! You’re siding with that nanny more than with me? I’m the mother of your child!” She crossed her arms as she spoke, her eyes blazing as if she were the

    Hand in hand, they walked along the beach. The strong wind blew her white dress, and she felt like a goddess, with Reed as her prince. A smile formed on her face as she thought about it."Sweetheart... do you remember when you confessed to me that you loved me too? It was under that tree, right?" Reed said, pointing to the coconut tree.She blushed... she remembered that day. They had shared happiness beneath that tree. After what happened between them, she finally told Reed that she loved him too. She still remembered how happy her husband was in those days."Uh... what happened again? I can't remember," she lied."Is that so?" Reed replied, not believing her. "Do you want us to reenact it so you can remember?" he said with a playful smile."Alright... remind me," she said. Her husband took her hand, and they went to the tree he pointed to. She panicked... what if he meant what he said about repeating what they did there? Luckily, they were the only ones at the resort because Lolo Mi

    "Glenda!!!" They were startled when Reed suddenly appeared out of nowhere. His gaze was fixed on the two women, and their faces turned pale."What is this nonsense?" Reed shouted at them. He didn’t stop his wife from speaking; in fact, he was glad to hear Glenda’s plan of trying to separate them directly from her own mouth. He had been too kind, and now he was always being taken advantage of. It was up to Reed to make the decision for both of them."Ah, Kuya Reed... nothing, we were just joking around, me and Ate Clarisa..." Glenda said calmly, her act returning."That’s not what I heard! Why did you say you were supposed to be my wife if Clarisa hadn’t come? Because I’ve been treating you and your mother well, you thought you could marry me?" Reed’s voice was full of anger."Kuya... huhuhu... I'm sorry... I did that because I love you... I’ve loved you since I was a child," Glenda explained. She grabbed Reed’s hand, but he shook her off."Sir Reed, please forgive Glenda... she’s st

    CLARISA:Clarisa remained silent. She didn’t tell Reed that her memory had returned... maybe it was due to the blow Fernando gave her to the head."Sir Reed!" An older woman called out as she approached them. Clarisa recognized her... it was Aling Nena, Reed’s caretaker at the resort."So you're here too, Mam Clarisa. Long time no see!" she smiled at her, but the smile was obviously fake."Hello, Aling Nena. I’m sorry if I don’t remember you well... Reed told me I’ve been here before?" Clarisa replied."Yes, Mam, but...""Kuya Reed!" A woman's voice called out, and it was Glenda, Aling Nena’s daughter. Clarisa remembered that she had a crush on Reed, which was why she had pushed her on the rocks that caused her amnesia.As usual, Glenda was wearing a crop top and skimpy shorts. She was about to hug Reed, but he avoided her."Glenda... so you're here too..." Reed said, sounding uninterested. He probably felt that she was flirting with him."I found out from Mom that you were coming, so

    Clarisa has been transferred to a private room, and Nanay Celia and Tatay Kardo arrived from Quezon Province. Lolo Miguel and Blue were also at the hospital. Blue cried upon seeing his mommy lying in a hospital bed. Clarisa was still unconscious."Anak... be strong... you've gone through so many problems, I hope this is the last one, huhuhu..." Nanay Celia said while crying. She was devastated for her daughter."Be strong, Celia... nothing bad will happen to our daughter... just trust in God," Tatay Kardo said, sitting beside his wife’s bed, holding her hand tightly. Even if it's just through his hold, he wanted to show his wife that he would never leave her."Daddy, is mommy gonna be okay?" Blue asked, climbing up onto the bed and lying next to Clarisa, hugging her tightly.He felt tears well up. "Yes, anak, mommy’s gonna be okay.""Blue?"They were surprised when Clarisa suddenly spoke… she was awake!He stood up quickly from his seat and went to his wife. "Sweetheart, you’re awake?

    REED:He arrived at the hospital to pick up his wife. He went to the nurse's station, but Clarisa wasn’t there yet. Her friends, Patrick, Cyena, and Loren, were already there."Hi guys, where’s Clarisa?" He asked her friends."She hasn’t arrived yet. She left a while ago!""Where did she go?""She went to room 206. The patient requested for her because they know each other. She’s been gone for a while, but she said she would hurry because you were coming." Cyena said."Who is that man?" He asked, puzzled."His name is Bernard, but Clarisa said she doesn’t know anyone named Bernard. She just went to see him to get it over with."He didn’t know why, but he suddenly felt uneasy. He quickly ran towards room 206."Reed, where are you going?" Clarisa's friends shouted, but he ignored them, rushing to reach room 206. Clarisa's friends also ran after him.He didn’t knock; he immediately opened the door and saw Clarisa lying unconscious on the floor. A man was on top of her. The man was also s

    CLARISA:They had been staying in the mansion for a month. Blue and Lolo Miguel had also gone home. She could say she was happy with her life. She had a loving child and husband, and her friends had helped her get a job at the hospital where they worked. Even though Reed said she didn't need to work anymore, she refused... her body longed for the work.Reed would take her to and from the hospital. She wanted to avoid bothering him, but he wouldn't allow it. He said he was happy when he served her. She didn’t make a fuss and decided to give him what he wanted."Sweetheart, I’ll pick you up later, but I’ll be a little late, okay? I need to stop by the bar first," Reed said when he dropped her off at the hospital."OK, sweetheart, no problem. Actually, I can go home by myself... I’m fine with it.""NO! I want to pick you up. You always end up in trouble... those crazy guys keep bothering you!""Hahaha... yeah, you're right! Fine, just pick me up later!"She got out of the car when they r

    The sun's rays woke him up. He had forgotten to close the curtains last night because he missed his wife so much. He looked at Clarisa beside him. She was still sleeping soundly, curled up in his arm... both of them still naked.He smiled... he couldn't count how many times they made love last night. He made the most of the opportunity. It felt like a celebration for them because Diana was no longer in their lives, and they had no more problems. Their family would be happy again.He carefully got up, being cautious not to wake his wife. He would let her sleep a little longer... he had worn her out.He went to the bathroom to wash his face and get dressed. He would make breakfast for his wife. He smiled... he used to do that before... he would always bring breakfast to his wife in bed before she woke up. Now that they were back together, he would return to doing the same things for her.When he returned to the bedroom, he brought breakfast for his wife. It was ham and eggs with garlic

    He embraced Clarisa once again… they were still unclothed. His manhood was pressing against her lower abdomen. He kissed his wife and guided her to lie down on the bed.They kissed again like there was no tomorrow, his tongue entering Clarisa's mouth as if searching for something, and then their tongues began to duel… “ahhmm…”He shifted his lips to Clarisa’s neck… gently biting her there while his hand freely caressed her firm breasts. “Ahhh… ahhhh…” moaned his wife as he continued nibbling on her neck. He sucked on it like a vampire.“Shit, baby… I missed you so much!” he uttered with intense passion.He spread Clarisa’s thighs and positioned himself between them, then brought his lips to her breasts. He sucked on her right breast like a child thirsting for milk, while his fingers played with the nipple of the left one.Clarisa arched her back in pleasure, overwhelmed by the sensation, almost losing her mind. “Ahhhh... ahhhh…”Moments later, his hand slid between her thighs again, a

    Reed breathed a sigh of relief when Diana and Jorge finally left. He never thought this moment would come. Kiel was not really his son—Jorge was the true father. Diana had only made him take responsibility for the child to avoid the shame of being a single mother. Though he wanted to be angry at Diana, he was just grateful that everything was over. He was finally free to be with Clarisa again, and she would no longer be jealous of Diana.He quickly went to the bedroom where Clarisa was. She had no idea what had just happened because she hadn’t left the room since they arrived. He knew she was upset with him because of Diana’s rudeness.When he reached the door, he knocked. “Sweetheart… can you open the door, please?” There was no response. He knocked again, but still, no sound came from inside. He decided to use the key—perhaps Clarisa had fallen asleep.When he opened the door, she wasn’t on the bed. He heard the sound of running water from the bathroom and smiled. Just in time, he t
