Chapter 43

Heart’s movements were quick that morning when she woke up. Darn! It was already close to noon, and her parents might have already left the hospital. Why did she oversleep?

Her mom had left numerous missed calls, and she didn’t even have the time to read the messages.

She blamed Lux for her long slumber. She blushed excessively at that Mrs. Montesalvo thing. Why was that? She shouldn’t be getting all giddy when the couple was still together, but she couldn’t help herself.

She wasn’t expecting anything, but she was happy, and she didn’t want to suppress that happiness. She didn’t often get to be happy in her life full of hardships, so why should she hold back, even if it was for a brief moment?

The young lady exited the bathroom, wearing her robe, and hurried to her bed where her clothes were laid out.

“I’m coming, Mom!” she called out, picking up her underwear, but her hand froze in mid-air when the door to the room swung open without warning.

It was Lux.

    44DRIVE-thru is the only way to feed the lady beside him. He knows she hasn’t eaten yet because he hasn’t seen Heart move so quickly. She has never been late for their plans because when she has a schedule, she’s even earlier than an alarm clock.“Why are we stopping here?” She asked with amazement, so he just looked at her and took her hand again.She looks incredibly worried. She’s even faster than him in her haste.“Relax. This will only take 5 minutes, baby. You’ll catch them before they leave. If not for 5 minutes, I’ll shut this damn fast food down.”She laughed, so he put his hand on his thigh and rubbed it.“A bucket of chicken, burger steak, and Palabok family pan. Include a solo chicken meal with drinks, hot chocolate.”“Right away, sir,” said the female crew member who had their order in her hands. He didn’t think twice about it, so he stared at Heart.“You’re not a drug, baby, are you?” He asked, looking at her fingers.“W-Why?”“Because I’m addicted to you!” He laughed,

    Chapter 45Heart's steps were slow as she walked alongside her mother towards the hospital exit where the ambulance was waiting. Her father was still in the room, being attended to by the health aides. Despite her relief that her father's condition had improved, she couldn't help but feel sad that they were leaving, and she wouldn't see them every day.Mother and daughter exchanged glances and smiled at each other. "Don't cry, dear. You'll be home with us soon," her mother reassured her. She nodded, but her feelings remained unchanged. When would she be able to return home? She had many debts to pay at the restaurant, and every hour mattered. When she went back to work, she planned to work overtime to repay her debts quickly.There was a little money left from her mother. She planned to start a small convenience store in front of their house, so they would have some income every day. She instructed her mother to save the rest for her father's medications and check-ups."Mom, take good

    Chapter 46Heart opened her eyes and the face of the man next to her registered. The pills! Throughout the whole session, that word was running through her mind as Lux continued to make love to her. One thrust, one reminder from her system to take contraceptives afterward.She carefully removed his arm wrapped around her. She was being extra cautious not to wake him up and let him rest properly. It was only ten o’clock when she glanced at the clock. She put on her pajamas and picked up her panties from the carpet.Approaching the drawer, she rummaged for her bottle of pills. She needed to take them, but as she twisted the cap open, Lux was already awake, watching her.He would be mad if he found out she hadn’t taken them.“P-Pills,” she stammered, trying to keep her voice normal to hide her nervousness.“Did you miss it?” He yawned and stretched, grimacing.“Only Y-Yesterday. It said to take two if that happens.”Lux just nodded and buried his face in the pillow again, while she kept

    Chapter 47 – LuxLUX marked Franco Rodriguez as his first enemy for now. That’s what’s been on his mind since the morning but it disappeared when he fell asleep. It returned when he saw Heart poking at her phone before they left.Enrico was gone because he was taking Heart to her new home. Even if he returned to the condo, the young lady was no longer there. They were heading to the townhouse now, with her luggage always ready. But before that, he needed to make a quick stop at the office to check on some important documents.He parked his car in the basement and couldn’t help but laugh when Heart quickly ducked to hide.“Wrong, baby. You shouldn’t be hiding there. You should be in my pants.”“Sssh!” She scolded him, but he couldn’t help but laugh.“No gossip will get out, no matter what they see. I’ll lock down the entire building if it happens. Don’t be afraid.”The girl rolled her eyes at him and slowly adjusted her sitting position.“Are you sure?”“Yes, Ma’am,” he said, and it ma

    Chapter 48Heart felt embarrassed when a woman got into the back of their car without even bothering to be asked by Lux to open the door for her. Even though it wasn’t said, the young lady knew who had entered. It was likely Elisa, Lux’s mother.He also got into the driver’s side in silence. She saw Lux’s mother looking at her through the mirror.“Diana?” Elisa asked, looking at Heart.“She’s not Diana,” Lux replied gruffly to his mother, leaving her speechless.“Sorry. I thought you were Diana.”“I’m just taking you to Katy. That’s all I can do for you. You can’t take her home unless you promise that your husband will not hurt her,” Lux talked beside Heart.“Alfonso won’t harm her, Lux,” Elisa replied gently to his son.“Are you sure? That’s not what Katy told me. Maybe you just can’t protect her, so I won’t give her to you. I’m better off, you left me, a boy, but Katy is a girl, and she needs you to support her. She was wrong, yes, but you can’t let her get hurt because you made mis

    Chapter 49LUX entered the grocery store past six in the evening. That grocery store was open 24 hours, inside a shopping mall.He entered with his bodyguards, and people immediately looked at him. “Where’s the manager?” He asked one of the customer assistants, “Call your manager, please.” He said, smiling at the woman, who promptly complied.It seemed like he wanted to open his own grocery store soon so he could shop with Heart at any time. He waited in his spot, and the manager came out, a man with age.“Yes, sir?” a man asked.“I want the grocery store to remain closed while I’m inside. I’m just going to buy some stuff. How much is the income in thirty minutes?”The man was taken aback, “On average, sir?”“No, the maximum.”The manager stared at him, probably thinking he was joking. Lux couldn’t blame him. Not everyone was familiar with the business world, and he was famous among businessmen worldwide, not the general public.“M-Maximum, sir, we have ten counters, and for thirty mi

    Chapter 50LUX looked at his phone. He was currently helping Heart organize their groceries. They had eaten at a hidden restaurant where they used to dine, and then they went home. His grandmother invited him to go to the opera again, but he claimed to be too busy. He informed her that Katy and Elisa had already talked. Elisa was going back home as Alfonso hadn’t agreed to her staying until the father of Katy's child returned. He still hadn’t spoken to that man, and what annoyed him was why Alfonso didn’t take action to find the player instead of forcing the man out through Elisa. Elisa was going to talk to her husband about Katy more seriously, considering her to be a shame to the Allen family. Heart couldn’t believe that her father had stolen her mother from his father back then. He was just irritated. He felt sorry for his sister, even though he had been angry at first. What more could be done? She was already pregnant.“Baby, wait. I have to take this call. It’s my secretary,” h

    Chapter 51“BABY, aren’t you coming down here yet? I’m waiting!” Lux called out his woman while he stood by the stairs and checked his wristwatch. He held a paper bag containing a smartphone, which he had purposely bought for her. She had requested a used phone to make video calls to her siblings and parents, as her older ones were prone to glitches, so he had bought it as a gift for her. She deserved it. She sacrificed everything for her family, even setting aside her own needs.It's about time she got what she needed. "I'm coming down,” she replied, and he heard the flip-flop of her slippers as she descended the stairs. He greeted her with a smile when he saw her.“What’s the rush?” she asked.“Come here,” he said, stepping in front of her. “Hmm?” Heart raised her eyebrows and smiled, “What? I thought you had already left. You came back.” “I’m giving you this. For you. You deserve it,” he said, revealing the bag. She looked at it and her eyes widened slightly when she

    20. SHIT. Lush Miguel put Ruth on the bed and pulled her feet. I’m sorry, but even though he has no experience, he can’t control himself. It’s not that he paid her but because he was really dying to have sex with her. He would get bored too, he knew. She screeched to what he did but he didn’t move. She clutched the towel to her chest and tried to hide her body. He took off his shirt while eyeing her, and then removed his shorts and boxers, too. He had expected Ruth’s eyes to widen when she saw his hard and erect manhood. He just never paid attention to her reaction and knelt on the floor. She immediately got up but he pulled her back and spread her legs. “I’ll show you something,” he smirked and pulled her towel. She didn’t do anything when he got it and just closed her eyes tightly, as he looked at her body. Fuck. He couldn’t wait to stretch her pussy so he could fuck her harder. He felt that Ruth was trying to close the thighs he was holding but he was trying to open

    19.Ruth stood in front of a condominium she recognized. The driver dropped her off at the entrance, and a uniformed man opened the door for her.“To the unit of, uh…” she stammered nervously. She felt breathless.“To the receptionist, ma’am,” the man replied.Embarrassed, she approached the receptionist. “Good evening, ma’am,” the woman greeted with a smile.“To the unit of Lush Miguel Montesalvo,” she said, trying not to show her nerves. She felt a pang of embarrassment; she hadn’t expected such a setup in Lush Miguel’s condo.“What’s your name?” the woman asked.“Ruth.”“Ruth?” The woman frowned.“Mirabelle, Ruth Mirabelle Eduardo.” She showed her ID.The woman smiled, “Yes, ma’am Mirabelle,” glancing at her ID. Ruth guessed that Lush Miguel had informed them. She tucked her ID back into her bag when someone suddenly touched her shoulder.Her arm moved automatically, delivering a slap to the man’s face. “Ouch!” he winced.Horror struck her as she realized it was her boss

    18.MELO entered the office with a paper in his hand. Lush’s eyebrows raised, only glanced at his secretary.“Another paperwork?” he asked, feeling tired.“I just need a sign, sir. This is from the utility department. This is a termination paper,” he explained.“Tear it,” he ordered, and Melo stood there in surprise.“Sir?”“Tear it. Is it for Mirabelle?”Melo nodded.“Rip it apart and return it to the head. Tell him not to waste my time on nonsense, a termination without a valid reason. What did it say?”Melo read the termination, “Miss Eduardo was absent for three consecutive days, and when she returned to work, she was on time for a day and really late the next day, leaving the comfort rooms untidy.”“Untidy his ass,” he retorted, causing Melo to hide a smile. “He’s using it for personal motives. Return it torn apart. Tell him to read the policy and bylaws.”“Yes, sir.”Melo turned away and he was left alone, leaning against a chair. It was within his head’s right to ter

    17.Ruth found herself scrutinized by the occupants of the President’s floor more intensely than being a criminal. It was her second time on that floor, and once again, mocking glances were directed her way. These individuals, accustomed to seeing familiar faces, likely comprised a high-ranking circle.She, a new face, assumed the appearance of a janitor.“Just constantly follow me. Lift your head, Miss Eduardo,” the man instructed, prompting her to obey. “You’re here for the boss and not for them.”She nodded, finding a lift in her spirits. It lightened the weight on her and her somewhat lowly identity.“Wait here,” the man said, pointing to a cubicle.Entering the boss’s office after a couple of knocks, he left her sitting in a chair, hands clasped. Her gaze seemed fixed at the door as if the surroundings were devoid of any other presence.“Come in,” the man who had accompanied her earlier said, so she stood up and walked toward the door. She grasped the doorknob and slowly turned i

    16.Ruth’s eyes widened in disbelief as she read the message from Lush Miguel. She was still half-asleep, but it felt like a nightmare. Could this be true? She read the message on her phone again: “Let’s do it tonight. I don’t mind your period. Tonight and tomorrow night. I’ll give you eighty thousand pesos.” Her eyes grew even wider as she realized what her boss was suggesting.Eighty thousand. Not bad for two nights. She couldn’t believe it. She wasn’t that beautiful. There were many more attractive women – sophisticated, with jobs and aspirations.He claimed not to care about her period. Ruth immediately stood up and checked her underwear. No period. Her uterus had been calm since yesterday.When she got home, she noticed her pad was empty. She sighed in relief and sat down. The text arrived at four in the morning. It was already five-thirty. Was that man sleeping, or was he thinking about her period and having sex with her?Baron’s memory saddened her.

    15.Lush Miguel tossed his keys onto the table near the sofa. Delight gave him a disapproving look, eyebrows arched, and a blank expression.“It’s too early, bro. Please, spare me from your lecture that I’m disrupting your night. It’s just…” he glanced at the wall clock, hanging on the beige wall, “7:47.”He lazily settled on the single sofa, and shortly after, a young girl came running towards him.“Tito Lush!” Nana exclaimed and immediately hugged him, almost tripping over her long nightgown.“Where’s Ate June?” He asked, looking around.“Still at the grocery store. Said she’s stuck in traffic.”“That explains,” he said, fixing the hem of Nana’s dress.“Explains what?” Delight furrowed his brows.“Explains why ky niece’s dress looks like it’s for Miss Universe.”Delight laughed at what he said and scratched his head. He really had no idea about being a father, so he wasn’t surprised that Nana’s dress looked like it was for a ten-year-old when she was only four.“What do you have fo

    14.This is true. They’ve come to an agreement, and she has agreed to his offer. Yes, she offered herself. Baron would kill her if he found out what she did, that is if her husband is still alive.“Can’t we go tonight, Ruth?” Lush Miguel suddenly asked the young lady. He was driving towards their destination. He said he would drop her off at the exit, and she couldn’t refuse.What does he mean by “go tonight”?“D-Do you mean, um, do that tonight?” she asked, feeling awkward. Oh no, is she really ready?
