Her body stiffened as her eyes went a little wider. She clenched her fists and continued walking as if she didn't hear anything. However, as soon as she took one step to the staircase, she heard a loud commotion which made her heart skip a beat.

“Foreigners had no right to interfere!” someone screamed followed by women's deafening shrieks and bouncers to run to the direction of where she just came from.

Her chest was pounding hard as she marched back at the bar counter. However, a lot of people were blocking her way as they were watching the scene like a movie.

“You're harassing my wife! I won't forgive you!” Hendrix's voice erupted.

Margaux stood frozen on the spot as she gasped loudly. She wanted to convince herself that she just heard it wrong, but she couldn't deny that voice was indeed from Hendrix.

She knew his voice very well. She had that husky and baritone voice recorded to listen every night before they got married. She had it indented in her mind that's why she couldn

    Margaux wiggled free and tried to push him again but to no avail. He removed his left hand from her wrist and placed it on her nape to deepen the kiss. She struggled from his hold, however, heat was starting to consume her and the next thing she knew she was already kissing him back. The VIP room became silent and only the sound of their lips smacking could be heard. Hendrix gently lifted his other hand and caressed her face while she grabbed a fistful of his shirt when his tongue entered her sweet cavern.She did not know how long it lasted but she was chasing her breath when he finally pulled away. She felt more dizzy after feeling his warm breath fanned against her face. The smell of his breath had a mixed mint and alcohol too. It only meant that he had been drinking there before he saw her. “Margaux, come back home with me..” he muttered. Her ears perked up and it immediately snapped her out from her reverie after hearing those words. And as if she was burned by him, she quick

    The woman's eyes sparkled as she giggled, obviously loving how she addressed her. “Long time no see. I've heard your father already passed all the responsibilities to you,” she said, “I just got back home from a business trip, that's why I wasn't able to attend your welcome party. But I sent you a gift!” she chirped. Margaux wanted to roll her eyes. She didn't need a gift especially coming from her. She knew the likes of that woman and she couldn't trust her at all. “It's fine. That party is not of great importance that requires her royal highness to attend,” she replied with her head bowed down. Liana gently smiled, “But still. We're relatives aren't we? I have to be there to witness the Montello's very important event,” she responded. Margaux pressed her lips tightly. Sure they were blood related and her father had a royal blood, but the woman was too self centered and only knew how to give everyone troubles whenever she's around, thus, not only her but all of their relatives

    Margaux was about to explode upon hearing it. In her heart, she was cursing Liana nonstop and wished she didn't run from that room earlier. And before anyone could react to what Liana had said, the waiter came in with the bottles of whiskey and some snacks. “Anything you'd like to order, Your royal highness?” asked the waiter respectfully. “What do you like? It's on me,” Liana looked at Hendrix while she was enjoying the feel of his hard chest. “This is so firm. Are you a regular at the gym?” She couldn't take it anymore. She quickly turned her back and marched out of the room without saying anything. “Where are you going?” she even heard Liana asked. But she just ignored it. She had enough. She didn't go there to watch them flirting in front of her! She shouldn't care, but she knew she hadn't moved on yet so she accepted that she's jealous. ‘Damn you Hendrix Mondragon! You didn't just cheat on me, you even want to show me how you get intimate with someone in front of me!’ sh

    “Fiancèe?” Hendrix stared at Margaux in disbelief. “What are you saying?” he breathed. Margaux scoffed, “I'm saying is. . .Roxanne is Hendrix's fiancèe! That scumbag proposed to her not less than a week after I left him!” she exclaimed scornfully. Hendrix was rendered speechless. He had no idea about what he just had heard. Him? Proposed? And to Roxanne? His freaking secretary?! That was ridiculous! He had zero interest in that woman. He actually didn't like her and only allowed her to be his secretary just because it was his mother's request. And he was not stupid about her agenda for being his secretary. He was not blind nor dense. In fact, he was very sensitive when it came to that kind of woman who wanted to get close to him. And that's also the very reason why he avoided Margaux. Aside from the fact that he was guilty for her accident and for using her as an escape from his family for setting him up to blind dates. Closing his palms into fist, his brows furrowed tightly.“Wher

    Silence filled the room as Hendrix laid on the couch with Margaux on top of him. No one spoke as if both of them were scared to say anything. But after long minutes of staying like that, Hendrix couldn't stay still any longer as Margaux's warm breath was fanning against his neck giving him goosebumps all over his body and sending chills down his spine. “Margaux?” he muttered as he couldn't hold on anymore. However, there was no response coming from her and just pure silence. Frowning, he tried to peek at her face, but he realized it was buried on the crook of his neck, making it impossible for him to see even just a glimpse of her beautiful face. He sighed. He didn't know what he was feeling at that moment as it was the first time he's been with anyone that close that there was no space between them at all. She literally evaded his personal space and that he could actually feel his soft lips on his neck, making it hard for him to calm down. Gently, he patted her back. “Are you al

    A loud gasp reverberated in the room as Daisy stood frozen upon seeing the scene in front of her. “What the heck?!” she screeched so loud which made Margaux retreat and look in her direction. “Didn't I tell you not to follow me?” she glared at her cousin. Daisy pointed at their direction with a horrified look. Her eyes felt sore looking at their provocative position.“You're drunk! Get off him now and I'll take you home!” she ordered and immediately called the bodyguards outside. “No! I'm not done yet!” Margaux said stubbornly. Daisy's eyes went wide as saucers as she stared at her cousin incredulously. “What?!” she breathed. But Margaux didn't respond and just shifted her gaze back at Hendrix who was too stunned to speak.“Don't mind her,” she chirped, then slowly snaked her arms around his neck and kissed him once again. “Margaux! Ugh! Take her away from him!” Daisy shouted. “And carried her to my car!” she commanded while her face was contorted in anger. She was obviously s

    Hendrix almost forgot about it, but as soon as his mother mentioned the banquet, he heard Margaux's voice in his mind. “You're engaged with.. who?” his father queried with brows deeply furrowed. Hendrix's eyes squinted while looking at his father. He could see that he was genuinely clueless, unlike his mother who looked like she had seen a ghost with her face drained out of blood and fear in her eyes. “Do you know who she is?” he asked darkly. “H-how would we know? You haven't introduced her to us,” Wilma retaliated. Hendrix nodded his head then chugged down the liquor. “You don't really know her, Mom?” he queried. Wilma gasped, “I…really don't!” she exclaimed. Her demeanor immediately changed as she glared at Hendrix. “What are you on about?” she hissed. Hendrix quickly emptied the bottle of liquor then slammed it on the table so hard afterwards. Both the table and bottle cracked because of the strong impact which surprised David and Wilma. “Hendrix!” Wilma screamed in utter s

    “Why are you suddenly apologizing?” Hendrix asked in utter confusion and disbelief. He thought he just misheard it as he was too drunk to hear it clearly. However, as he stared at his mother, despite his headache, he still could clearly see his mother's teary eyes. “Why are you crying?” he was bewildered. Never once did he see his mother cry. Not even when he fell on the staircase when he was young nor his grandma m, her mother died eight years ago. She never shed tears in front of him. That's why there was a pinch in his heart as soon as he saw her almost crying. Wilma held his hands again with pleading eyes. “I'm sorry, son. I made a mistake. I shouldn't have forged your signature and made Margaux believe that you couldn't wait to divorce her,” she confessed. It didn't sink in at first. But the moment he realized what his mother had just told him, his eyes instantly darkened. “What did you say, Mom?” he roared. Since he was already drunk, he had no control of his emotion

    Hendrix's thick furrowed eyebrows became permanent as he buried his face on paper works. His workaholic self just couldn't help finishing them all before he went home. “Sir, it's past nine already,” Tom, his secretary, stated. “You can go home now,” he responded without lifting his head. Tom looked hesitant as he stared at his boss who was busy signing the documents. He could leave just as he told him to, but he knew his future would be at risk if he did not drag his boss out of his office. Standing there, he took a deep breath and was prepared to say the magic word when all of a sudden, a loud ring erupted in the whole office. Hendrix stopped whatever he was doing and scowled at his mobile phone resting on the corner of his desk. His face was dark as though he was displeased that he's got interrupted with his work. “Let me see, you're still in the office, am I right?” the caller said without any greetings. Hendrix didn't need to ask who was on the other line. His annoyin

    The manor was very busy as everyone seemed to be panicking as the time was running. But Margaux seemed oblivious as she was busy staring at herself in a huge mirror. Her heart was thumping hard. ‘This is it,” she told herself internally. The white beautiful wedding dress that was full of tiny diamonds was sparkling, almost blinding her eyes. Her hair was tied up in a very neat bun with some hair strands curled beautifully decorating her small face. While her makeup was just light, almost bare showing her natural beauty that made everyone in the room bewitched as they all looked at her. “Miss Margaux, it’s time to walk down the aisle,” the organizer announced. Margaux glanced over herself one more time before leaving the room. The organizer gave her the beautifully arranged white bouquet with a huge grin.“Mr Mondragon is so lucky,” she muttered with pure admiration. She did not respond and just gave her a small smile. Her stomach was churning as her chest was about to explode. S

    Margaux crossed her arms as she leaned on the back rest of the sofa, staring at the woman in front of her. She woke up alone and everyone in the manor was nowhere to be found aside for Liana who was sitting comfortably on the sofa in the living room while having a cup of tea as she descended the stairs. “Babe,” Liana flashed a small smile. Her eyebrows raised as she had no idea what her cousin was doing in their manor. As far as she could remember, she was left in the Philippines so she thought she would stay there and will never have the guts to show her face again out of remorse. ‘I forgot that she’s shameless,’ she thought and rolled her eyes. “I know you never wish to see me again,” Liana muttered. “You know but you still show up here,” she replied sarcastically. The princess let out a sigh then shook her head. Seeing that, Margaux thought she was going to retort a sarcastic remark and grin mockingly at her like she always does before. However, she’d seen none of it, rather

    “I want to give her a grand wedding in front of all of you, her family and friends,” Hendrix added. He was looking straight to Don Geronimo as he said those words with a very serious face. However, the corner of his lips lifted upon seeing Margaux’s reaction in his peripheral vision. “You’re already married,” Don Geronimo stated. Hendrix's lips pursed as he brought his attention back to the old man. “But it didn't feel right. I married her as Margaux Hermani and I want to correct that“ “Hendrix..” Margaux muttered. He finally looked at her direction and saw her flustered face and teary eyes. She probably didn't expect that and had a doubt about his plan. Stepping forward, he cupped her face and stared into her blue eyes. “I want to make this right,” he muttered. Then he put down his hands and shoved one onto the pocket of his jeans whilst slowly kneeling down in front of her. A loud gasp came from Margaux as he pulled out the velvet box and revealed a huge diamond ring.

    “You're blooming,” Daisy smirked as soon as they entered the dining room. Margaux’s face turned hot in an instant. She then threw her cousin a sharp glare on which the latter just laughed it off. “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m just stating a fact,” Daisy said and gave her a malicious grin. She rolled her eyes and did not say anything. Instead, she took her seat and looked around the table to see that they were complete except her parents, who were probably still in the hospital. “You should take the seat next to your wife,” she heard her uncle say. Her eyebrows raised as the only vacant seat next to her was his father's chair. “I don't think that's right,” Hendrix muttered as he stood still behind her chair. “Just take that seat and eat. It's just a chair,” her uncle Daniel insisted. Knowing that her husband won't do it for his respect for her father, she let out a sigh before glancing over her shoulder. “You can take that chair. No one will mind,”

    “Are you tired?” Hendrix queried as they cuddled under the blanket. ‘I am exhausted!’ Margaux’s mind screamed internally. Her face was burning and kept her eyes closed recalling what they had just done. It was not the first time anymore but it still felt new to her. Moreso, the experience was entirely different from the first one as she thought Hendrix didn't strain himself anymore which made her whole body sore. She felt his soft lips touch her forehead and a soft whisper of ‘I love you’ tingles her left ear. He then tightened his hold on her and pressed her body to his even more as if he was afraid to have even a tiniest gap between them. “Love..” he murmured. Curiously, Margaux slowly opened her eyes and met his gaze. But before she could say something, Hendrix quickly leaned in closer and claimed her lips. Gasping, she opened her eyes and reluctantly pushed him away. “I can't do it anymore,” she mumbled. She averted her gaze as her face became hotter. She had no qualms

    “Call all the doctors, quick!” she exclaimed as she kneeled down next to Hendrix. Her heart just stopped beating upon seeing his unconscious body. She didn't know where to touch him as she was afraid she might hurt him even more. “Love! Open your eyes, please! Don't sleep!” she cried. She could feel her cousin was trying to calm her but her emotions exploded that she could not hear anything anymore. “Babe, calm down!” Daisy shook her. “Love, please!” she pleaded. Her hands were shaking as she placed her palms on his chest. Although she could feel his heartbeat, still she cannot calm down seeing him unconscious with blood almost covering his shirt. “Let me check his wounds,” Felissa muttered. Reluctantly, she moved away and let her mother check where the gunshot was. She was holding her breath as she was trying to prepare for whatever she was going to see. However, as soon as her mother lifted Hendrix's shirt, loud gasps reverberated in the room and followed by loud laughter.

    “Aren’t you afraid that he might let that woman free?” Felissa inquired. Margaux heaved a sigh. Then, a small smile flashed her face as she looked at her mother. “I trust that he won’t do it, Mom..” she replied. Her mother stared at her for a long second before she responded. “What if he betrayed you?” she asked critically. She did not know if her mother was just testing her. But her question did not really come across her mind. After learning what happened from the nurse that was supposed to kill her, she knew right then that Hendrix did not really mean to shoot her. He was aiming for Doctor Pablo, not her. That’s why as soon as he tried to approach her, she did not hesitate to send him with that woman. She was that confident that he would come back to her, not thinking about other possibilities that he had other motives. Looking away, she curled her fingers as she was starting to doubt her decision. But then she shook her head immediately and lifted her chin as she returned her

    Margaux quickly shifted her head towards the door as soon as she heard it shut. Her shoulders slumped while she heaved a deep sigh. “Why did you make him leave and feel disappointed now?” Her father queried. She pursed her lips. Seriously, she didn’t know why she did that. Probably because she was not ready to face him yet. She took a deep breath once again and looked at her father. “Did you already know about Doctor Pablo?” She asked instead. Don Geronimo raised his eyebrows. His eyes lit up, prolly seeing her intention of changing the topic. “I had suspicion, but never thought he could actually do that to us,” he shook his head. Margaux’s eyes narrowed as she stared at her father. His actions and facial expression were so contradictory that she could not help but be skeptical. “Really?” She tilted her head and crossed her arms. She did trust her father, but at that moment, she could not help but doubt his words. Meanwhile, Don Geronimo suddenly laughed boisterously. “You’r
