CHAPTER 17

Yza looked at the door of the walk in closet when Adam entered there carrying the folder with the marriage contract. The two of them looked at each other before he glanced at the night dresses he was looking at. He has that mysterious and obscure smirk again. His eyes returned to her so she looked away. It’s as if the contents of his brain are the way she looks wearing those sexy clothes every night.

She shook his head violently.

“Is there a problem, Yza?” Adam suddenly asked.

“Huh? W-Nothing. I’m going to grandma. Is that okay? You understand, don’t you—” she couldn’t continue.

“What?” he asked behind her so she turned around.

She saw that he was taking off the t-shirt he was wearing so she swallowed when she caught a glimpse of his body. Damn his muscles. Even his back is perfectly defined.

Yza immediately turned around when she felt that he was about to face her.

“I can’t sleep here tonight. Will you be angry? I know that you b-bought me but because…

    Chapter 18Yza glanced at the walk-in closet’s door as Adam entered, holding a folder with the marriage certificate. They exchanged looks before his gaze shifted to the night dresses she was inspecting. His mysterious smirk returned, and she averted her eyes, feeling as though he was fixated on her wearing those sexy outfits every night.She shook her head abruptly. "Is there a problem, Yza?" he suddenly asked."N-No? I was just going to see grandma. Is it okay? You understand that—""That what?" he interrupted from behind, causing her to turn. He was taking off his T-shirt, and she involuntarily swallowed at the sight of his well-defined muscles, even from behind."Um, that I won't be sleeping here, right? Will you be upset? I know you bought me, but..."She entered into marriage for financial reasons, devoid of love. It seems Adam's proposal was merely to avoid offending her, yet she is aware of his potential to easily seek annulment when he's done with the arrangement."That I need

    CHAPTER 19"MA'AM," Shelton said to Yza, arms crossed and lost in thought.She leaned lazily against the back seat of the car, seemingly indifferent. Her gaze, initially fixed outside the window, shifted to the man seated in the passenger's seat.Her eyebrows arched slightly, prompting him to hand her a paper bag bearing the Samsung S8 logo.Her brows arched higher. "What's that?" she asked softly.He smiled before replying. "Boss asked me to give it to you," he said.Samsung? A cellphone? S8? Oh my goodness! That's expensive!She felt as if the air left her lungs, recalling the ridiculous price of the device Shelton held in his hand—forty thousand pesos. Good grief!"No, return it to him," she said, turning her gaze back out the window. "Even my outdated Nokia got stolen at that high-class hospital. What more with this forty-thousand-peso gadget? The thief might chop off my hand if I don't give it to them.""I can't, Ma'am. He’ll shoot me," Shelton responded immediately.Her brows fu

    CHAPTER 20Yza’s grandmother remained silent as she entered the hospital room. The old woman gazed at her with a look suggesting she had much to say or inquire, but it seemed difficult for her to express. Does her grandmother know something? Yza thought so, given the peculiar way she was being observed by the old lady.Yza smiled, sensing her grandmother’s emotions. When the two helpers finally bid farewell to return to the mansion, the old woman spoke, “Yza, my grandchild,” calling her to sit beside the bed.Eli seemed on the verge of tears immediately, prompting Yza’s own tears to flow. They were quite shallow emotions, but she was extremely sentimental.“I have something to tell you, ‘La,” she said, leaning slightly.Her grandmother held her hand, and she looked into the old woman’s eyes. “I know. Adamson told me this afternoon before picking you up from school. I’m sorry you got caught up in my situation. I wish you hadn’t agreed to buy a donor because I don’t know if you and he w

    CHAPTER 21Yza couldn’t utter a single word after Adam passionately kissed her, taking control. Luckily, there was a portable room divider near her grandmother’s bed, shielding them from potential eyes.Adam’s aggressive kiss consumed her, exploring her lips as if searching for something more. When she gasped for air, he delved in with his tongue, sensually exploring every corner of her mouth. She, inexperienced, had no response to his fervent kissing.Her heart raced as Adam’s hands roamed her arms, causing her chest to pound. “Relax,” he whispered, accompanying it with gentle strokes along her thighs. Nipping her lip, she arched her body, and he moved from her lips to gently bite her jaw.Gasping, Yza felt his tender bite on her jawline. She held his head, running her fingers through Adam’s hair as he licked her jaw. It seemed to give her strength against the sensations rushing through her.“Shit, Yza, shit!” he softly cursed, pressing her body against his. Adam was relentless, kiss

    CHAPTER 22Yza stared blankly at the rings beside her. She was hurt. His words echoed in her mind: “Unless I’m done with you and fully satisfied…” That’s how he saw her—an obsession, a fancy, an addiction. As long as he wasn’t tired of her, no one else could approach her or express interest.What if someone genuinely loved her and was willing to repay everything Adamson spent? Would he let her go then?She looked directly into her husband’s eyes, who stood before her with a smirk. She wanted to hide her tears but couldn’t.“Adam, wh-what if someday someone falls in love with me and is willing to return everything you and my grandmother spent? W-will you let me go?” Her tear fell, left unattended on her cheek.His jaws clenched, eyebrows furrowed in anger, then he ran his fingers through his hair. “No,” he said, almost in a whisper, as if he didn’t say it to her. He pulled a ring from the box.“Fine. I’ll let you wear one—just one, but next time, make sure you answer quickly when someo

    Chapter 23YZA swallowed her lump. She looked straight into Adam’s eyes after he kissed her. He immediately removed his shirt and unbuckled his belt while licking his lips. She could still hear the sound of the metal at the buckle of his belt.She stared at him, observing every move her husband made. His face, a handsome man like no other, and as she focused on his mouth, being licked by his tongue—it felt like he was heating her up despite the strong air conditioning inside the Range Rover.Her eyes moved down to his chest. Adam’s breathing increased as if he was panting, even though there was no killing of his giant manhood happening yet.She could see his body illuminated by the light. He’s so burly. His size is truly impressive even without clothes. He has layers of hair on his chest, trailing down to his abdomen.She took a deep breath as he unbuttoned his pants. He glanced at her and smiled again, a seductive and captivating smile.She scratched her head vigorously. Why did she

    Chapter 24When Yza woke up, she found herself lying on something soft. She seemed to have forgotten what happened due to extreme fatigue. She is now embracing a large pillow, trying to recall what transpired and why she was in bed when she was at the hospital the previous night.Her eyes widened as she remembered being with Adam inside the car. Everything her husband did to her, attempting to make her do things that led to tears. Until he stopped and embraced her despite her inability to reciprocate.She gained some respect. Just from Adam’s embrace early in the morning, she felt his respect for something she couldn’t bring herself to do.As far as she knew, she fell asleep inside the car after crying. Did her husband carry her like a child to their room?Probably. It’s not like you went sleepwalking. She told herself.She pressed her lips and smiled. Her mind seemed to be full of his presence since she signed the marriage contract, and the pain of DJ’s betrayal rarely crossed her mi

    CHAPTER 25Yza’s mind echoed Tadeo’s revelation that Adam didn’t actually let his men eat the dishes she prepared. It turns out that he was the one who Sis it, resulting in rashes. Adam insisted on keeping his cooking exclusive for him alone. Yza found out when she bumped into Adam’s staff earlier at home and inquired about her Chopsuey and the shrimp. They claimed they never tasted any of it, not even the sauce or shrimp tails, due to Adam’s strict prohibition. The only exception was her Sis Isay. And Adam after eating, immediately developed an itch and searched for anti-allergy medication. Isay explained that she got upset, so Adam had to eat a little to mend her offended feelings.Yza smiled at the realization. Despite not being wholly rejected by Adam, her feelings were somewhat valued, even if he didn’t love her. Her effort mattered, even if it led to unpleasant consequences. It turned out Adam wasn’t lying about having an allergy, and Yza had wrongly accused him of dishonesty.

    Yza was frozen in her seat when she heard a familiar sweet voice fill the entire function hall after the wedding."I thought I wasn’t ready, For my heart to beat again But suddenly, you came into my life…"She stared at her husband as he walked out from behind the improvised stage. He had said he was going to the bathroom, but here he was, about to sing.His eyes immediately sought her face and then showed a very light but heartwarming smile.She automatically felt very emotional. Who wouldn’t be moved if someone as handsome as him serenaded her in front of everyone on their wedding day at the church?And in fairness, his voice was beautiful. He had a hidden talent for singing, but just like his personality, it was very hidden and hard to reach. And with this Tagalog song, the first words that came out of his mouth seemed to fill her heart with love—love for her and for the two-month-old babies in her womb. Everything was given to her by God. If the challenges they went through were t

    Yza furrowed her brow as the taxi driver dropped her off right in front of the condominium where she was staying, after she got out.The condominium across from AD condominium? She only learned the name of that building now, despite having lived across from it for such a long time.She walked inside and the guard greeted her with a smile. “Are you going home here, Ma’am? Not to the other side?” The guard joked, to which she just smiled.What a gossip.When did Adam start living there? Was that the new place her grandmother mentioned where her husband was staying? So, they were right across from each other?She couldn’t help but feel a little giddy at the thought that maybe Adam had been secretly watching her, out of her sight and knowledge.“I’m heading to my husband’s place,” she told the guard and showed her name tag, which he quickly looked at.“Ah, to Sir Adam. Go ahead, Ma’am. He told me that if any beautiful woman comes by, I should let her in right away.” The guard said, but it

    53Yza was momentarily stunned by the woman in front of her. Her brain couldn't process the simple instruction the woman had just given her, telling her that Adam wanted her to go to the main building of the company again. What could he possibly need from her this time? She had just come from there. She had also just been here. It seemed like her husband's mind was slowly unraveling."Ma'am Yza?" The woman in front of her called out since Yza had been staring blankly for a while."H-Huh? O-Okay, I'll go," Yza replied, still not fully aware of what she was saying.She glanced at Tiffany as she sang while looking at her computer."Bring back the sweetness of love, let the heart that loves be heard again..." Tiffany sang, her shoulders shaking with the rhythm."Awwooohhh..." her friends joined in, causing Yza to laugh softly before standing up."Do I have to go, Tiffany?" Yza bit her finger nervously.She suddenly felt uneasy, thinking of facing Adam again.It reminded her of when she fi

    52Yza went straight to branch five after talking to Adam, but several hours had passed, and her anger still hadn't subsided. She felt like she was going to explode from the mix of anger, jealousy, hurt, and love. She didn’t know why she felt this way, but it was as if her feet were pulling her back to the main building so she could slap him without stopping.She felt that her attempt to throw the vase there wasn’t enough.Frustrated, she bent over the desk and started crying again, so she grabbed her hair in frustration.“Are you okay, bf?” Tiffany asked her from the table across. She was surprised, but Yza shook her head repeatedly.“I’m not okay. It was so wrong for me to go to his office. I was so... disgusted. I’m angry because he didn’t say anything. He’s still closed off to me.” She started crying again and buried her head in the desk, crying quietly.“He doesn’t love me anymore. He thought that money could ease the pain I feel. He doesn’t love me anymore, Tiffany. He loves som

    51The taxi window automatically rolled down as it reached the guardhouse entering the ADL Motors building—main branch."guard..." Yza said to the two guards, who immediately stood upright when they saw her face."Ma'am Elyzabeth Alexa," they said in unison, making her furrow her brows.Why did they recognize her?"Go ahead, Ma'am," the man said, so she nodded, though still confused.The driver continued driving into the driveway while smiling.When she got out at the main entrance of the building, she immediately saw a billboard with Adam’s face on it. He had that fierce look. So arrogant, yet so cowardly and childlike in his actions and decisions.Deceptive! Her head heated with anger.As she entered the building, she froze in shock upon seeing her own face on the large tarpaulins around the area.Why was her picture up there? Elyzabeth Alexa Brina-de Lorenzo, CEO of ADL Motors.What kind of nonsense is this? Her eyebrows furrowed, and it seemed like smoke was coming out of her nose

    Yza was getting some fresh air on the apartment balcony. It had been months since she last did this, ever since she and Adam got married. Now that she was back in the apartment, she would often step out for some fresh air in the evenings to relax and clear her mind from overthinking.Lately, she's been very emotional and doesn't even know why. Maybe it's because she misses her husband, who seems to have completely forgotten about her.She was starting to fall into deep thought again. She was supposed to be relaxing, but stress filled her mind instead.She missed Adamson so much, and there were times when she wanted to call or text him, but she wasn’t sure if his number was still active. On top of that, she felt embarrassed. She didn’t want to seem desperate, especially since he distanced himself from her.She wasn’t proud, but she was discreet when it came to handling situations like that.She glanced at her phone again. She was looking at the only picture of Adam she had, and once ag

    WEEKS passed so fast.Still, Yza was in the process of learning to live her life all alone. She would join Tiffany for meals, who almost always brought groceries, and never missed bringing her favorite imported chocolates. Every single piece of those chocolates reminded her of Adam. The only difference was, they didn’t come from her husband.Tiffany’s boyfriend was quite impressive. Even though they weren’t married yet, he was already spending a lot on her. Yza thought she was just lucky and happy for her friend. Maybe it wasn’t meant for her to be happy for the rest of her life with the true love she had found.She had been staring blankly at Adam’s mansion for a while now, unable to get out of the taxi. She was deeply in debt to her friend because of her daily expenses, including her allowance. What could she ask from her grandmother, who couldn’t work and was also being supported by Adamson? She hoped she could graduate soon so she could take care of her grandmother and support her

    When Yza woke up, Adam was already gone. She had expected it, but it still hurt to open her eyes and not see her husband.Her eyes immediately welled up, and tears rolled down her cheeks, but she quickly wiped them away.Her husband was gone, but what remained was the small ache in her heart. Was last night really their last?No one knew.She longed for a lifetime of love in his arms, but she didn’t want to be trapped forever with someone who couldn’t trust the sincerity of her love. Moreover, she was hurt by the revelations he admitted, that he hurt others just to win her, but he couldn’t stand by her.She already knew. Adam had asked her to stay with him only because he needed her, but deep down, he always doubted she wouldn’t leave him for someone else. He nearly tied her down, just to keep her from escaping. But he probably felt guilty when one day, he suddenly declared his love for her.He felt so guilty to tie her in a relationship where there’s no trust because she truly believ

    ADAM lovingly raked Yza's body. His eyes were filled with tears at that event in their lives but his grandmother seemed right that he needed to find himself and find where Yza was in him. Pain strikes his chest like lightning, gashing his heart several times. He saw his wife crying silently in pain. Her eyes were closed and she was waiting for him to possess her. He'll get back to it when he's ready and hopefully it'll still be there by then. He has to be strong enough and set his mind, make it ready to accept something positive especially the negative ones. He must learn how to stand in equality. He must learn how to accept failures and not just winning alone. If he is always a winner, he should learn to accept defeat. He finally took it off and kissed it on the lips. He positioned himself in between her thighs and started poking her center with his hard manhood. His hands roamed his body with no tenderness. It was as if it affected every corner of his body. He loves ev
