Chapter 96: Stupidity Sofia's POVI'm confused now. He calls me Sofia sometimes; however, when he notices me being uncomfortable, he calls me by my name. I'm not used to someone calling me names; that's not even me.Actually, when I heard him say that he still loves Sofia and that he was referring to me, there was something inside me that I couldn't explain.I was surprised, but when I saw how sincere he was, it made me feel longing for something that I didn't understand. I never felt this before. However, the way he talks to me looks into my eyes and takes good care of me... he wants me to feel that I am special.“Marcus, I am not Sofia.” My voice became sad as I wanted to end this. He suddenly held my hand, and his eyes were begging. I wanted to remove it, but then he looked away and wiped his tears.“I just missed her that I did this to you.” Humbled, but I heard him say it.“Look, I'm sorry for what happened to you and Sofia. But it wasn't right that you would keep me here. I hav
Chapter 97: He's Too PerfectSofia's POVAfter what happened, he didn't talk to me. I am embarrassed to talk to him, either. Until now, I still can't forget the way his soft lips touched my forehead.Last night, he didn't sleep in our room; he slept in the living room. I didn't dare to ask him why since I didn't have the courage to talk to him. I waited for an hour, thinking that he might change his mind and go back to sleep in bed, but unfortunately, he didn't.When I woke up, I didn't see him in the house, but he prepared breakfast for us. I searched for him, but he was not around.I ended up eating alone. Besides, I'm too hungry to wait for him. I'll just find him after I'm done taking a shower.After I'm done eating and taking a bath, I just wear shorts and a shirt. I went out of the house and marched through the cottage, thinking that he might be there, but he was not.I tried to find him everywhere we always go when we are bored, but he's not there.Is he mad at me? Or maybe he
Chapter 98: Butterflies Sofia's POV“Ouch!” I uttered as he put something on it. He stopped from applying something to my wound and looked at me.“I'm sorry. Does it hurt so bad?” he asked. I bit my lower lip while looking at him. I could see from here how handsome he was. I can't explain, but the way he looks at me gives me butterflies in my stomach.What's happening to me?“Ah... no— I mean, yes!” What the heck?! What's with the stuttering, Helena? I heard him sigh and slowly clean my wound. Sometimes it's really painful.“Wait! Damn, it's sore,” I complained while looking at my wound. It's not that big, but still, it's painful.Then he leaned closer to my toe, and I just felt air as he blew on it. I feel like I went back to being a kid because of what he did.“Is it better now?” He stopped and looked at me. I couldn't speak. I was shocked because of what he did. That's why I just nodded, and my face heated. Damn!“Are you alright?” He stood up and checked on me.“Are you sick?” I
Chapter 99: A Deal Sofia's POV“Here, taste this one.” I looked at the table, and he cooked a lot. He also designed it like I was in an expensive restaurant. I can't deny that he's totally doing great.I tasted the food he gave me, and it was delicious. I'm not kidding. A man who knows how to cook and is handsome. He's very husband material.“How is it?” He said while placing a glass of juice in front of me. I nodded while chewing.“It's great; you have good cooking skills, for real,” I commented, and he just laughed. This was the very first time I looked at him laughing for a long second, and it gave me joy, too.“After this, I'll show you somewhere,” he said, which made me curious.“Where? I'm curious; is there anywhere else I haven't seen?” I asked him, but he just smiled at me.“I'll tell you when we get there,” he said and didn't answer my question. I secretly rolled my eyes. He likes surprises, huh?After we finished eating, he started to wash the dishes while I was waiting for
Chapter 100: One WeekSofia's POV"Let's make a deal: You will act as Sofia for one week, and after that, you're free. Just one week of being my girlfriend."Damn it! I didn't know what to say when he said those words. I didn't eat dinner, and until now, I'm still lying on the bed.He didn't sleep last night in our room, and I don't know where he went right now.How can he say that to me? But then, when I'm thinking about it, I could benefit from what he said, but at the same time, I don't know how to act as a girlfriend since I have never been in a relationship before.That's why it's hard for me to think about how I would be able to do what he says.Though it's only for one week, I won't lose anything if I try, and I can get the freedom that I want after that.That's only for a week, Helena; after that, you can go home. Just accept that deal.I got up and went to the bathroom to freshen my mind. I just wore a simple, plain yellow dress after I was done taking a shower.After that, I
Chapter 101: I Was FallingSofia's POVI'm lying in bed while he hugs me. I'm not comfortable with our position right now, but I want us to be like this.Marcus is indeed still in love with Sofia."Goodnight, Sofia," he said, tightening his hugs. I gulp because of how close we are."Goodnight, Marcus," I’m ready to close my eyes when his last words make my world stop."I love you, baby." I don't know, but his words hit me differently. I didn't realize that I was actually crying.What's wrong with me? I wipe my tears while not letting him know that I am crying.My heart aches all of a sudden. Why did I long for this night? Things went differently now since I decided to act as Sofia and when I admitted that I was falling.I closed my eyes, not daring to answer him."You are the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with," I heard a man say behind me. When I turned around, I saw the figure of a man holding a woman's hand; it was blurry."Marcus, I wanted to spend the rest of my li
Chapter 102: Just PretendSofia's POVThis is the second day that I will be pretending to be Marcus' girlfriend. Honestly, I wish to finish it in just a snap. Accepting that damn deal was not a good idea.I woke up without him by my side. I sighed, remembering what happened last night, but I couldn't dwell on it.I stood up to take a shower and do my daily routine. After that, I went to the kitchen and saw him drinking his coffee."Good morning," he greeted me before taking a sip of his coffee. I sat in the chair, and he handed me a glass of milk."Good morning," I greeted him back. He smiled as if nothing had happened. Maybe this is the best way for us both to act as if nothing had happened."Do you remember your dream last night?" he asked. At first, I was curious because he didn't have to ask, but I just shook my head."No, do you have plans today?" I asked him, thinking that we might do something to lessen the boredom."I have plans, but I'll tell you tonight. First, I'm planning
Chapter 103: Lucky Sofia's POV"Helena," he called me by my name, which made me clear my throat. "Stop daydreaming, dummy! What the heck is happening to me?""I'm sorry; what are you saying again?" I asked him. I knew he had been talking for a while, but I couldn't focus. Those lips were distracting me."I said, your clothes were placed in the cabinet. It's a dress. I just want this night to be special. I'll wait for you in the living room, okay?" He said, and he gave me a peck of a kiss on my forehead before he left.I bit my lower lip. Is he really that sweet? First, I let him kiss me on my lips, and now he kissed me again on my forehead. Why am I letting him do this to me? Why can't I stop him?I stood up and went to the cabinet to see the dress he talked about. When I opened the cabinet, I saw a glittering dress. It was lovely. He had good taste.I hurried to the shower room to clean myself, and after that, I excitedly wore the dress he had given me. It was perfect. He seemed to
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?
