Chapter 64: I Love You
Sofia's POV
“Sofia, I’d rather die right now than leave you here. I loved you, Sofia, I really do. Sofia Sanders, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I don't care if you hated me; I don't care if you don't want to see me. All I want tonight is to be with you tonight, tomorrow, and the rest of the days. Please just let me stay.” He gave me a warm kiss on my cheek that gave me butterflies in my stomach.
Why are you doing this to me, Marcus? You deserve to be happy. You deserve someone better than me. He tightened his hug, and I could feel his warm tears on my neck.
I wanted to get away from him, but I wanted us to stay like this. I wanted to push him, but I wanted to feel his hugs. I wanted to wipe his tears, but I couldn't.
“I loved you. I'm dying to kiss you and hug you like this. Baby, I'm sorry, please forgive me. Let me fix things,” he said, holding me carefully and making me face him.
Chapter 65: Dying Sofia's POV After the long night, Marcus stayed here in my house. Just like before, he's the one cooking for us. I told him that he shouldn't have to do it, but then he insisted. He became much sweeter than before. I don't want him to stay here because he's not used to living a simple life, but whatever I do, he never leaves. After his work, he will come back here; he decided to stay in my house. “Are you alright?” He hugged me from behind. I smiled because of what he did. Actually, I like the way he treats me now. “I'm okay, you're getting late, you have to go,” I turned around to look at his handsome face. You're as attractive as ever, Marcus. How am I going to forget you? All this time, you are making me feel precious. “Fine, I'll be back later, okay? Don't forget to eat your lunch. I love you,” he kissed me on my lips, and it was not just a kiss; it was passionate. “Just go
Chapter 66: Promises Sofia's POV “You can go home and take a rest now if you're not feeling well, Sofia,” Jessica told me while we were arranging the flowers. Marcus has been living with me for almost seven days. Maria went mad at me for letting Marcus enter my life again, but then when I told her everything that happened, she understood. She was shocked, knowing that Marcus had been living with me here for a couple of days now. “These past few days, I’ve observed that you're getting sexier. Have you planned on losing weight? They tell me you're doing workouts; that's why sometimes you look tired and not okay while you are working here in your shop,” Maria asked while she was eating at the table. I sighed. These past few days, I've been trying to look normal like before, but sometimes it's hard for me to do that, especially when I start coughing up blood. “I'm not sure how I could do that. Marcus is living with me now,
Chapter 67:Please fight for me Sofia's POV I woke up when I felt Marcus tapping me on my shoulder. “Wake up, sleepyhead, breakfast is ready,” he gave me a peck of a kiss. When I opened my eyes, his smile was the first thing I saw. He never fails to make me happy every day. How I wish we could be like this forever. I stared at the clock, and he was already late. I stood up, but I didn't expect him to carry me. “Marcus! Let me down,” he said, carrying me in a bridal style while I kept insisting that he let me go. “Nope, I'll carry you through to the kitchen,” he said while laughing at my reaction. I pouted, but then he gave me another peck of a kiss. “Stop doing that, or else I will not stop kissing you until tomorrow,” what he said made me blush. “Stop it, you're getting late,” he just laughed while putting me down on the table. “That's why I need to hurry and eat my breakfast,” he
Chapter 68: Fight Sofia's POV I agreed with Marcus. We decided to fight this struggle. He never left my side, always there when I need him, when I need something, or when I'm uncomfortable. It's been days in the hospital, and with the help of expert doctors, my condition is improving. My phone rang, but I still didn't have the courage to answer. "I think you have to tell her about your condition, Sofia. After all, she's your best friend," Marcus said as he fed me. "I don't know how to tell her," I sighed, knowing she was worried about me. "I'll give you time to talk to her, okay? I'll just buy drinks outside," he said, kissing me before leaving. He didn't wait for my response but left, smiling, encouraging me to talk to Maria. I grabbed the phone and answered the call. "Hello?" "What the hell, Sofia?! I've been calling for days, but you didn't even dare to answer my phone! I have gone to your flo
Chapter 69: Hurt Me Again Sofia's POV I wasn't used to Marcus not being here tonight, but I knew his meeting was important. My phone rang, and I saw Maria was the caller. I answered because I knew she wanted to talk to me. “How are you? Where is Marcus?” She asked while combing her hair. “He can't accompany me now; he has an important meeting to attend,” I told her. She nodded. I feel bad for Marcus; I know he's tired, but he chose to stay here in the hospital with me. If I tell him to rest, he always says that he feels better when he's with me. “Then why didn't you tell me so I could go there?” Of course, she's busy. I didn't want to disturb her. “I'm okay, besides, he will be back tomorrow morning, so no need to worry,” I assured her. She went to her mirror while putting on night cream. “I'll visit you tomorrow; I don't have a meeting to attend,” she said while wearing a jacket. “Make sure you
Chapter 70: I Hope You're Happy Without Me Sofia POV I hurriedly removed everything that was on my body, went outside the room, and hurriedly looked for a taxi. I was catching air when I got inside the car. I'm still not okay. Even though I'm weak, I still manage to call a taxi with my hospital dress. I escaped, I wanted to see him. I wanted to see it with my own eyes. I don't care if the driver finds me weird. All I did was cry. My heartbeat kept on rising while we were on our way to the bar. My sight is getting blurry because of my unstable tears. I laughed, remembering those moments when he looked at me with his eyes. He made me believe that he loved me. Did he really love me? I don't know how to face him tonight. I don't know how he would be able to react to me. I love you. I'm dying inside not to hold you like I wanted His words keep on echoing in my head. He made me believe
Chapter 71: Helena Presley Sofia’s POV “Ms. Helena, Madam is looking for you,” one of the maids called my attention while I was watering the plants. “Tell her I’m coming. I’ll finish this one, Jenna,” I smiled at her, and she walked away. I held my long, straight hair and tied it up. It took me a minute to get to the living room because of this big mansion. “You’re looking for me, Mom?” I sat beside her and hugged her, which made her smile broadly. “I am planning to go to an engagement party with you this week,” she held my hand while playing with it. I knew it was hard for her to convince me to join different occasions like that because of my past experience. Five years had passed since Mommy Stella found me unconscious, lying on the ground. Until now, I don’t know what exactly happened that day. I can’t remember anything, not even my name or anyone who is connected to me. She told me tha
Chapter 72: Uncomfortable Sofia’s POV “I’m sorry I can’t go with you tonight,” I held her hand. “Mom, there’s nothing to worry about, okay? Besides, I won’t let you come with me with your condition right now.” I got a glass of water and handed it to her with her medicine. “You have to get ready now, don’t worry. I’ll be okay soon.” I nodded and kissed her before leaving her room. I went to my room and stared at the dress we bought the other day. It is shining and really perfect for night events. It is a backless gold dress with a slit on it. I’ll just pair them with a gold necklace and earrings, I guess? I went to the mirror and stared at the makeup. Staying here for five years, I’ve learned too many different things, not only when it comes to businesses but also doing makeup. I would also like to ask Mommy Stella if I could learn how to cook with our professional chef. I started to put makeup on my face;
FinaleSofia's POV“You're pregnant?!” She exclaimed and messed up her hair.“What?!” Marcus' mom walked towards me. I thought she would be happy to hear it and it would change her mind, but she just slapped me.“How dare you do this?!” Nathalie fired the gun near me. I covered my ears.“What the fuck, bitch!” She slapped and pulled me while I'm struggling.“Nathalie!” Marcus' mom stopped her. Nathalie turned to her with a different expression that I've never seen before.“Let her go now, Nathalie,” Marcus' mom looked at her, but Nathalie just laughed.“Don't tell me you've changed your mind, old lady,” she walked towards her while Marcus' mom looked at me. I can't read her expression.“She's pregnant! There's life inside her womb,” she said and looked away.“Oh come on! The plan won't change even if she's pregnant. Besides, that would be more exciting! Right?! If you choose to not continue with the plan, you'll regret it,” even if I'm too wet and it's cold, Marcus' mom's expression m
Chapter 111: Nervous Sofia's POV“You have to rest, Marcus. I told you I'm okay,” I said while he's still by my side, holding my hand.“I told you, Sofia, I will not leave. I'll stay here,” he said.“Fine, but you have to take a shower. You smell bad,” I said, and he smelled his clothes.“You're just making excuses,” he said while caressing my tummy.“Baby, did you hear your daddy? He doesn't want to listen to mommy,” I said, and he looked at me.“I just didn't want to leave you and your mom, baby,” he said, talking to our baby.“Just take a shower,” I said, and he stood up.“Fine, but I'll be quick. I'll be back soon,” he said and gave me a peck of a kiss. He also kissed my tummy.“Wait for me, baby, okay?” I rolled my eyes. He's acting as if he's going somewhere far, but he's just going to take a shower in the bathroom.He first went to get his clothes in his car and then came back to take a shower.“I'll be quick,” he turned around, and I threw him the pillow, making him laugh. He
Chapter 110: BabySofia's POVHe didn't leave my side. He kept checking on me, asking if I needed something or if my head hurt. He didn't stop until I assured him that I was alright."Are you sure?" He asked again. I didn't know how many times he asked that question until I woke up."Marcus, you know what? You should take a rest. Mom told me that you didn't leave until I regained consciousness.""No, I want to stay here. I will not leave you," he said, shaking his head like a baby.He held my tummy while smiling. He looked like he had lost his mind."You've been doing that the whole time," I uttered, but he just held my hand."I've been waiting for this day to happen, that you would remember me. I didn't waste my time and kept searching for you. I didn't stop until I found you. I was happy when I saw you that night. I'm happy that you came. Actually, I was going to invite Mrs. Presley, but then I found out that her daughter, who passed away not long after you lost your memory, was ret
Chapter 109: Memories Sofia's POV“Sofia,” he called me again. I didn't respond as the doctors kept checking me and saying words. After that, they went out.I remember everything now. It was me who had amnesia, and I didn't remember Marcus and my past.I looked at Mom, and she went in front of me while Marcus gave him space.He sat on the chair while looking at me.“Sofia Darling, I'm worried,” she started crying, and I held her hand.“Mom,” I uttered, and I felt weak.“The doctor said you have to rest, and we should not let you speak for a long time, darling,” she said and caressed my hair.“Mom, how long—” she cut me off and wiped her tears.“You've been here for almost a month, Sofia,” I looked at her, and she seemed surprised by the words she uttered.How did she know? Why didn't she tell me? And I've been here for almost a month? I'm confused. My head hurts because of thinking too much.“I mean Helena, darling,” she held my hand, but I just looked at her. I need answers. The las
Chapter 108: Sofia Sofia's POV"Sofia, I like the cookies you baked. Promise me that you will bring cookies even if you are busy, okay?" A cute girl hugged her."Of course, your brother and I will always visit you. Don't worry, I’ll bring you lots of cookies, Mandy," she called the girl Mandy."Don't spoil my sister, Sofia," I looked to see who said that, and it was Marcus. Marcus? I tried to look at who Sofia was calling, and moments later, I saw her face. She looked like me.But how?"I'm not. She's your only sister, okay? And she's lovely. I'm happy to meet her," she said while Marcus hugged her from behind.I closed my eyes as my head hurt."Promise me that you will never leave my brother," Mandy sounded serious."He is the only one I have, and I don't want to see him in a messy situation again. He changed when he met Sofia," Sofia hugged her."I promise, don't worry about him," they both hugged each other.My head hurt again. When I opened my eyes, I saw a woman, and she was fam
Chapter 107: FoolSofia's POVI hurriedly went outside while he was still busy talking to someone! Damn him! Why did he lie to me?He fooled me! All this time, there's a signal in here, and he didn't bother to tell me about it?! How could he?“Marcus!” I called him, and he turned around, surprised to see me in front of him. He didn't react because of shock.“So-Sofia-” I laughed sarcastically. Now he had the guts to call me Sofia after all that he did?!“When are you planning to tell me about this?!” I shouted at him, and he was about to walk closer to me, but I stopped him.“Don't you dare, Marcus! You're such a big liar!” I said, and he placed his phone in his pocket. Fuck it! Now I am convinced that he's just really playing me! I'm such a fool for believing him!“Sofia, please let me explain. It's not what you are thinking,” he said, which made me even angrier.“It's not what I think?! Stop fooling me, Marcus! Fuck! I believed in you! I thought you were telling the truth, but you j
Chapter 106: LiarSofia's POVI woke up with a headache. I'm already on our bed, and he's not beside me.All the things that happened last night flash in my head.“Fuck!” I checked myself, and I'm now wearing different clothes. Did he change my clothes?Damn! Should I go outside? This is embarrassing! I don't know what to do.I messed up my hair and slapped my face because of the stupidity I had! We did it. Damn!Then I heard footsteps outside our room, followed by a knock.But I didn't open it. He was calling me, but I didn't respond. I pretended that I was still sleeping when the door slowly opened.I heard him sigh and sit beside me.“Wake up now, sleepyhead,” he said and chuckled. Why is he acting like everything was normal?! We had sex last night, and it was not right! Shit! What should I do? Should I have slapped him? How can I talk to him now?He cupped my face, and I wanted to kick him so badly.“How I wish we could be together like this,” his words caught me. What did he mean
Chapter 105: Pleasure Sofia's POV"Are you mad?" he asked me, but I just shook my head, though I was a little bit mad. He said he still loved Sofia, that he'd been looking for her for many years and suffered for years, and yet he already knew where she was, but he was still here making things worse.Who would not get mad because of the way he is acting?"Listen, I know you are mad. Yes, I admit I already found her, but what can I do if she keeps on pushing me away?" He drinks his champagne in just one gulp.Pushing him away?! I couldn't understand this man!"Are you making excuses?" I crossed my arms, furrowed my eyebrows, and looked into his eyes."I'm not; I know you won't believe my words, and I don't want to make things harder, okay?" Damn him! I lost my appetite."You know what Marcus? Let's just end this night. I'm tired," I said and stood up. I walked past him, but suddenly, I felt a warm hug on my back. It gave me goosebumps, and I couldn't explain it. He rested his chin on m
Chapter 104: Men Were All The Same Sofia's POV“There's nothing to say sorry,” he said, trying to lighten things up.I still couldn't move on from how Marcus endured all of that just for Sofia.“I did everything to make him stay, though I knew that I was hurting her because of what was happening to me. I did all I could to make him believe that I loved her because I really loved her,” he said, his voice cracking. He was hurt as well as I was.It hurts hearing him say how he loved Sofia while I am here admiring him from afar. It hurts seeing him like this. I wanted to hold his hand and hug him tight, but I didn't have the strength to do it.I admit that every time I hear him say that he loves Sofia, I get jealous, but I don't have the right. I was jealous, and I wanted to steal him from her, but I knew I couldn't do it. Because no matter what I do or who I am, I can never replace Sofia in his heart.“Did she know?” I asked him to look at me.“Yes,” he said, which shocked me. She knew?
