“Dad..” Margaux’s voice trembled as she ran inside the hospital room.

Her body almost collapsed upon seeing her father’s state and she could not believe that she would see him like that. Weak and pale.

“I’m fine. Don't worry about me. I’m not going to d!e,” Don Geronimo muttered.

She gave her father a sharp look, not liking what he had just said. Although she knew he was just joking, still, she was too worried to laugh nor even form a smile.

“Stop joking, honey. Your daughter just got back from a long flight because she’s very worried about you..” her mother stated.

“You shouldn't come back here, Margaux,” her father suddenly said.

Margaux straightened on her seat while her lips parted slightly. She stared at her father in utter disbelief as she did not expect him to say that.

Suddenly, a lot of things entered her mind and the first one she thought was her father did not want to see her.

Her lips trembled as her eyes moistened, feeling hurt as she looked at her father in confus

    “Don’t stain your pretty hands with any dirt, my princess. You don’t need to lower yourself on her level,” Don Geronimo shook his head in disagreement. Margaux wanted to protest but she knew better not to argue with her father. He knew better than her and the last time she took her revenge, it just backfired on her. With a heavy sigh, she slowly nodded her head. “You don’t need to do anything. Just stay in the manor and make sure to not let your husband leave your side,” her father advised her. He kept saying not to do anything and just let their men search for Roxanne until he made her promise to listen to him. “That is an order, Margaux. I never asked you for anything so I’m expecting that you will follow this one thing,” her father said firmly. “Yes, Dad. I promise,” she muttered. Nodding, her father then started recounting how he ended up meeting the woman. According to him, he got a call hinting the location where Roxanne was hiding, but it turned out to be a trap and beca

    Frozen on her spot, Margaux’s eyes almost popped out from its socket as she saw how Hendrix grabbed Roxanne’s wrist and put the gun on his temple. “Hendrix!” She screamed. Cold sweat ran on her forehead as she stood there waiting for her husband to look at her.She did not know what to do. Panic crept her system and all she could think of was to see her husband’s face. Her heart skipped a beat when Hendrix slowly turned around to face her. She wanted to scream to stop him for she realized that it was a very bad move since Roxanne can pull the trigger while his attention was on her. “You’re here,” Hendrix muttered. A smile then slowly flashed his lips. For some reason, she smiled back. Seeing him smiling at her made her feel at ease. It made her forget everything as if everyone around them disappeared and left just the two of them. “Come here,” she cooed. All her fear vanished as she extended her hand towards him, asking him to come forward and grab her hand. Her lips stretched

    Hendrix quickly dropped the gun and ran towards Margaux and caught her before she fell on the ground. “Love..” his voice was shaking as he frantically searched for bloodstains in her body, afraid that she was hit somewhere. “Let’s take her to the emergency room,” Felissa muttered. He quickly carried his wife without any thought.“Hendrix! Come back here! You traitor!” Roxanne shouted hysterically. Hendrix glanced over his shoulder and saw that the woman was being held by Margaux's body guards while one of them was putting handcuffs on her. “What are you doing?! Bring me to the emergency room! I’m bleeding!” The woman screeched. Indeed, she was bleeding. He was just not sure who shot her but he was glad whoever it was deed because there was no way he would be able to escape her if she realized that Margaux was not his real target. “Hendrix..” his mother-in-law called him softly when she realized he was not following. He turned around and continued walking in her direction only

    “Aren’t you supposed to save lives?” Hendrix asked coldly as he threw the doctor a dagger through his gaze. However, despite the obvious pain he was feeling, Doctor Pablo smirked at him. “I save lives only for specific people,” he said meaningfully. His eyes turned into a slit. Curling his fingers tightly, he drew a sharp intake of breath as his face darken. “Is that why you wanted to kill her?” He asked sharply. His voice was very low and venomous. If not for his promise to his mother-in-law that he will not taint his hand with that person's filthy blood, he already lunged at him and punched his face until he could no longer lift those filthy lips anymore. Suddenly, the doctor’s laughter erupted in the whole room, which surprised everyone including Hendrix. He then groaned as he clutched his shoulder. Hendrix’s thick eyebrows raised as he watched Doctor Pablo laughing and grunting at the same time. ‘He must’ve lost his mind due to so much blood that was lost,’ he t

    Upon hearing that, Hendrix's heart just stopped beating. However, before he could think of running to her room, the door suddenly burst open and revealed the person the doctor had just mentioned. “Are you talking about me?” Margaux raised her eyebrows. Doctor Pablo’s eyes went wide open as though he had just seen a ghost. “Why are you still alive?!” he exclaimed in utter shock. Hendrix's thick eyebrows deeply furrowed watching the doctor's reaction. He seemed so confident earlier but his demeanor instantly changed and at the very moment, the fear in his eyes was very evident. “Because you cannot afford someone's loyalty to our family,” he heard his wife replied. His chest was pounding hard and upon seeing the nurse stepping inside the room, his heart almost convulsed. ‘Is it another trusted person that betrayed her again?’ he thought. His heart ached for his wife not until he heard Doctor Pablo screamed profanities directed at the nurse. “You traitor! Why didn't you follow my

    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

    “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

    “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.

    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
