Jack looked at the entrance and scowled, “You want me to get rid of that guy?” he queried. Then, he turned to Margaux with deep creases on his forehead, “Isn't he the guy who claimed to be your husband?” he added.

Margaux's lips parted as her chest thumped wildly. She thought he already forgot about it since he didn't mention it earlier, but it seemed like he just thought it was irrelevant.

“That guy is Hendrix Mondragon. He is from the Philippines. He thought he married Margaux when the truth is he married someone else and thought it was her. He's crazy. No matter how many times Margaux confirmed that she's not his wife, he just doesn't believe it,” Daisy sighed dramatically.

Margaux blinked several times as she tried to process what her cousin had just said. And she wanted to be swallowed by the ground in embarrassment at the blatant lies Daisy was saying. ‘Aren't she scared that Mr Simon knows the truth?!’ she thought as she stared at her incredulously.

    ‘Future husband?!’ Margaux's head exploded. Her body stiffened as she stared at Jack with wide eyes. She didn't know what to say as her mind went blank in shock. “Future husband?!” Wilma gasped. Her face turned white as she immediately held her son's forearm. “She can't be..” She mumbled, panicking. “Why can't she? Margaux is single. She can marry anyone she likes to tie the knot with. And Jack is the most qualified to be her husband,” said Daisy. Margaux intently watched Wilma. She could see Hendrix's sharp glare in her peripheral vision, but deliberately ignored it and just focused solely on his mother. “But she's already married!” the old woman exclaimed. She then looked at Margaux and frowned, “How about Hendrix, Margaux?” she queried. Margaux raised her eyebrows as she stared at Wilma. “What about him? Are you forgetting about Roxanne, Mrs Mondragon?” she retorted.The old woman froze on her spot. She quickly averted her gaze as her lips quivered. Margaux squinted her eyes a

    Hendrix was fuming mad. He threw Margaux a deadly glare as he stood there panting. “Are you really going to flirt with him in front of me?” he spat. His face was red as his blood was boiling. He couldn't believe that the woman he thought was demure and only had eyes on him was being cozy with another guy before his eyes. ‘Did she forget that she's still married? Although she used a fake name in their marriage certificate, she couldn't deny that her presence alone in the ceremony was enough evidence that they got married for real!’ he thought to himself. Meanwhile, Margaux slowly turned to him with raised eyebrows, “What if I am? I'm single. I can do whatever I want, Mr Mondragon,” she smirked. It made him angrier. “You're single?” he hissed. His ruthless eyes glimmered as he turned to Jack. “Do you know that she's a liar?” He shook his head. What a pretentious woman she was. She lied about her identity to him, and now she was lying to a different guy again. What would she gain

    “The audacity!” Daisy angrily slammed her hands on the table which surprised the customers near them. “Isn't he the one stalking you like a freak here?! Now he's acting like a victim as if you did something wrong to him?!” Margaux clenched her fists. She was as angry as her cousin. She couldn't believe Hendrix was even proud of admitting that he abandoned her! She suffered a lot because of that! Was treated like a servant and took advantage of her kindness and willingness to obey them! With bloodshot eyes, she looked at her cousin who was seething in anger. “Are they still staying in Rosewood?” she queried. Frowning, Daisy immediately shifted her gaze to her, “Yes,” she answered. Her cousin stared at her in confusion, but it wasn't long when she eventually smiled as if she quickly got what she meant. “I'm gonna call Cali now,” she chortled. Daisy immediately dialed their cousin's number while Margaux and Jack silently watched her. They watched her as though they were in a movie

    Margaux's bodyguards quickly surrounded her and pushed the woman on the ground. Daisy worriedly ran to her and looked at her from head to toe, “Are you okay?” she queried. But she didn't answer. She looked at her arm and saw that there's a long scratch and it was bleeding. She clicked her tongue in annoyance. Looking at the culprit, her forehead creased as she stared at her sharply. “Who are you?” she asked coldly. That woman was so brave for openly attacking her like that. Usually, she would've praised her for such bravery and would have let her off after warning her. However, it's too unfortunate of her that she chose that day when she was in an extreme rage. “You're bleeding,” Daisy muttered worriedly. Margaux completely ignored her cousin and just watched as the woman finally lifted her head and showed her face. Her face darkened as her lips pressed tightly together. “How dare you seduce my fiancè?!” Roxanne shouted while still on the ground. “You're still here?” Daisy ra

    Margaux was lost and dumbfounded by what she just had heard. She stared at her cousin with a big question mark on her pretty face. Pictures from the ultrasound that Roxanne showed her flashes in her mind in an instant. She remembered the immense shock and pain she felt that day and how her world crumbled as the shocking news was delivered to her. “Whatever evidence they showed you to make you believe it, it's all fake, babe. Roxanne is not pregnant. It's all a damn lie!” said Daisy angrily. Margaux furiously looked at Wilma and pointed at her, shaking. She couldn't believe she was fooled again! She felt like her insides were already burning in anger and she badly wanted to hurt someone! “Margaux! I'm sorry! Please forgive me! I was just desperate! I didn't know better! And please! Spare Roxanne! This is all my plan!” Wilma begged. She clenched her fists too tightly that her nails were already piercing her palms. Her blood was boiling hot while her muscles became stiff.

    “Hendrix! Where the heck are you! Come here quickly and help your mother!” David screamed from the other line making Hendrix winced as his eardrums stung. To say he was shocked was understatement, because he had never heard his father shout ever. However, he didn't have time to think about it as he was already facing a huge problem with his company. “I'm sorry Dad. But there's an emergency in the company,” he quickly said. He was about to end the call when his father screamed again. “Is that more important than your mother?! Come here to the hospital right now!” “Hospital?” Hendrix stopped typing on his laptop and abruptly stood up. “What happened to her?” he asked worriedly. Even though he was not on good terms with Wilma, she'sl his mother and he still cares for her. That's why despite the huge problem the company was currently facing, he left whatever he was doing and immediately left his suite. “Mr Mondragon,” the manager of the hotel greeted him. Hendrix just nodded briefl

    Hendrix couldn't understand that. He scowled as he pulled away his phone and stared at it incredulously. “What are you talking about? Why would I apologize to her?” he hissed. He was already angry by the situation he was in. He had no time to chase that woman who was the reason why he was being chased out of the hotel he was staying in! “There's news circulating here now. And it's not good at all. The project you are investing so much in has been stolen by another company!” Giro reported. “I know! Mr Rodriguez's secretary called me and said that they already canceled our contract,”. He said lividly. “They will return the money for compensation,” he added. Giro said agitatedly. “How about the investors? It would be a huge loss once they left as well!” “They won't,” he answered confidently.“How certain are you about that? One had already announce that they are going to invest to whoever get the project” Hendrix jolted up abruptly upon hearing that. “What the fvck?!” “Go home and

    “I impregnated her?!” Hendrix exclaimed incredulously. “Yes! Don't try to deny it! Roxanne already admitted it! We saw the ultrasound and your pictures together!” Mr Roswell continued. “What the fvck are you talking about?!” He screamed lividly. “I never even touched the tip of that woman's finger! For Pete's sake! Stop this insanity because I never liked your daughter nor got interested in her body!” his voice thundered inside the room. Mrs Roswell gasped so loud while her husband was already on the fit of rage. He stepped forward and lifted his fist towards Hendrix but the latter quickly swiftly dodged it. “You bastard! My daughter is a very beautiful lady. There's a long line of men pursuing her and you're damn lucky that she fancied you!” Hendrix sneered. “Give that luck to someone else. I don't need her obsessive attention!” “Honey!” Mrs Roswell screamed in panic when her husband put his hand on his chest and pointed Hendrix with his index finger. “We have a deal with your

    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
