2024-10-29 19:42:56Sophie stared at the people before her, a small smile tugging on her lips. She had planned this perfectly. After letting Natalie live in peace for ten years this was only a small price that she could pay.
She would make sure that Natalie and the rest of her family members know who she is and now she was back here, she had no intentions of ever living in this house.
"Mom, why are we standing here?" Her son asked.
She smiled at him then smirked at the rest of the family members. "We are waiting for them to get used to seeing us so they would know that we are living in this same mansion with them."
She stared at the horrified looks on their faces. Dario and Trish looked like they wanted to murder her, Faustino looked so furious as angry veins appeared on his forehead she was scared they would pop.
Ava, Daniel, Chloe, Claire, and Noah were all huddled together discussing what she couldn't hear. Lisa and Jeff stood at the other end while she wept silently.

Noah took one look at his grandfather before racing towards him. He couldn't allow him to suffer a heart attack because of what had happened here today."Let's go for a walk, grandpa," he said the moment he reached him.Noah was getting ready for an argument but was surprised when he didn't argue. He merely followed him out with his head hung low.They got outside and sat on the porch swing. It's been a while since his grandpa behaved obediently without trying to put up a fight and it scared him.The weather was chilly and the cool evening breeze rustled their clothes as they sat down staring at the sky.He was always fascinated with the stars when he was growing up and it always was so beautiful at night. He realized that a single star does not make the sky beautiful but a billion stars."I wish life could be so beautiful like this for Natalie," his grandpa mumbled beside him.Noah's heart lurched in his throat as tears s

"Natalie, please open up!"Natalie took a step back from the door that was constantly banged on by Dante."Baby, please talk to me. Don't do anything rash!"A tear slipped down her cheeks as she stared at the closed door. She hated how broken his voice sounded, he shouldn't be this sad, he should be strong. Like how he has always been.What will she do now if her strength becomes weak now?No! She won't let that happen, she vowed as she rushed to the door trying to pull it open when her mind reminded her that he was the reason why she was going crazy!But she can't stay away from him for much longer, she reasoned with herself."I love you, Natalie. I'm sorry."Her heart broke into pieces. He was crying, her strong husband was crying because of her. But...he-he hurt her and made her cry too.He was the reason why she would never have a child again!The flower vase on her nightstand, the same one Dante had given her this morning came crashing down breaking into tiny pieces."Natalie!

Natalie came towards him and dropped the shards she was holding. They sank to the floor away from the glass particles as tears streamed down her cheeks."I love you Dante how could you do this to me?" She cried uncontrollably as he soothed her hair."I'm sorry love. I didn't mean to hurt you like that I just didn't dare to tell you," he pleaded."But she has a baby for you Dante and that is something I can never give you," she cried."That baby was a mistake," he replied."Doesn't mean that he doesn't exist now," she pointed out.Her eyes became cloudy again as anger filled her heart. How could she have given in so easily to this man who had betrayed her the moment he let Sophie come between them.A rational part of her mind pointed out that it wasn't Dante's fault but another one of Sophie's plans. But that realization only made it harder to bear.She was getting tired of the constant scheming of people as they always tried to outsmart her. She was getting tired of having to fight all

Natalie opened her eyes and shut them back wincing in pain as the sun rays filtered into the room momentarily making the whole world go blind for a split second.When she tried to open her eyes again, she wasn't assaulted by the bright light instead she shielded her eyes with the blankets.Her head felt so heavy and she had a massive headache almost like a hangover. She was sure her eyes were swollen too with the way they itched and hurt.She tried sitting up on the bed but it was impossible as a wave of dizziness hit her. Her wrists hurt like hell and there was a bitter taste in her mouth.The events of what had happened last night floated in her mind and she found the tears stinging in her eyes again.She glanced at the clock sitting on her nightstand and then her phone. She had been unconscious for two days?What had happened within that time frame? She wondered. Did Dante accept Sophie and Kol as his new family while he kicked her to the curb?She heard loud voices outside and it s

I hate you, Dante Rodrigo!Those words played over and over in his head and he just couldn't get them to stop because she was the one who had said these words to him.In a fit of rage she had yelled at him and hurt herself all because of him and yet she still refused to see him. He has tried his best over the last two days to pacify her but still nothing.She hadn't wanted to see him when she was in a coma state due to the drugs Jones gave her and had even threatened to hurt them both but somehow he had restrained her."Daddy, your food is ready."He blinked and looked up at the child interrupting his train and thoughts and sighed. Kol was standing before him with huge blue eyes."I'm not hungry, Kol," he mumbled."But I told mommy to prepare food for you," he whined."Then tell her to discard it!" He yelled.The big blue eyes pooled up with tears and they began trickling down his chubby cheeks. Dante stared at the boy and felt so bad.He was yelling at him as his father and grandfathe

Dante sat down in the garden as he stared at the open sky. His mind was reeling with thoughts as to why Natalie wanted him to stay away from her.Could it be that she was considering a divorce with him that's why she wanted her space so that he wouldn't cloud her thoughts?But there was no way he was letting that happen. He saw a shadow out of the corner of his eyes and was surprised when he saw Kol coming towards him with a glass of juice."Dad, I'm sorry you had to argue with everyone because of me and mom," he said quietly.Dante sighed. "It was nothing I just want to be left alone.""Sure. I just got you a glass of juice," Kol beamed at him."I didn't ask for one," Dante mumbled.The boy looked like he was about to cry with the way Dante waved him off. "Please, just a sip. I saw you and I decided that you would need it since you didn't have breakfast," he pleaded.Dante sighed and took the glass from him taking a small sip and handing it back to him."Thank you, Kol. Now please le

Dante was standing before her so the door was closed by someone outside.Suddenly, she understood what was going on and she sighed."The kids and you tricked me again.""I just wanna talk to you," Dante mumbled."So you came up with these ridiculous ideas," Natalie smirked."It wasn't my idea!" Dante exclaimed."But you played along to it," she snorted."Can you stop pretending that you hate me and let's try to talk about this?" Dante pleaded.Natalie glared at him. "I hate you!""No, you don't. You're just upset with me," he smiled.Natalie frowned. Who did he think he was to tell her what she was feeling for him when all she could feel for him was...Her thoughts came to an abrupt halt when saw him take two steps towards her. She gulped as she took another step backward."W-what are you doing?" She stuttered."What's the matter, princess?" He smirked, "Why are you scared of your husband's closeness."Because I'll lose my fucking mind if you take another step closer, she wanted to scr

“Dad!"Dante shrugged. "I didn't do anything, guys. It's your mom that isn't ready to co-operate," Dante replied with a shrug as he sat down on the swing on the porch.Chloe circled him and smiled. "I know, dad but did she say she needed to be alone from you?"Dante thought for a second and frowned. Now that he thought about it she hadn't said those words to him. He was the one who had decided not to let her complete her sentences because he hadn't wanted to hear it.He shrugged. "Not exactly but I know she doesn't want me."Chloe gasped. "Dad! Mom would have a heart attack if she heard you say that."Dante shrugged. "She would be relieved.""What's he doing here now?"Dante followed her line of vision and saw Kol approaching with a glass of milk."Don't tell me you're jealous of that kid," he eyed her suspiciously.Chloe shrugged. "I have no reason to be. I'm your daughter after all and his mom is evil."Dante chuckled. "Nice one, Chloe.""Dad, mom said you should drink your milk and

"Dante?"Her husband stared at her with a confused expression."Na—ruff!"The next thing that followed was utter chaos as she stood mortified.Natalie blinked. Maybe if she closed her eyes and opened it, the horrible scene would disappear but the shrill voices reminded her that it was real."He is crazy!” someone exclaimed."Call the asylum!" Another added.Natalie watched as her husband tore at people's trousers and skirts barking like a dog.Like an actual dog! A real dog!She looked around mortified as she tried to stop them from racing out of the house screaming their lungs out.

“Doctor, what is wrong with my husband?” Natalie stared at Dante as he lay down peacefully on the hospital bed, a small smile playing on his lips. She caressed his hair and kissed his cheeks softly. “He’ll be asleep for a while, Ma’am,” the doctor answered. “Did you find out what's wrong?” Natalie asked. The doctor nodded and she heaved a sigh of relief. She had worried that everything wouldn't go according to her plans and she would have to start afresh after ruining Dante’s image. “This is the document of Dante’s hospital reports,” the doctor said, handing her some papers. Natalie went through it and a smile formed on her lips. “Thank you so much, Doctor,” Natalie smiled. The doctor nodded, “You’re welcome, Ma’am. I wish you success.”Natalie nodded as the doctor left. A few minutes later Lee stepped into the hospital room, panting. “Reporters... Outside... Wolves!” he panted. Natalie shrugged, “Calm down, Lee. Did you get it?”Lee handed her a box and nodded, “Everything i

Natalie stared at Dante as she saw the speech he had written and she chuckled."What's funny?" Dante asked with a frown."You are writing a speech like you aren't a businessman again," she chortled.Dante's frown deepened. "What is wrong with that?"Natalie smiled. "I just don't think it would be necessary for that. You can do that without the speech."Dante furrowed his brows at her. "It's an impromptu speech, Natalie. I need to be prepared."Natalie noticed the way his muscles were tensed and she sighed. She knew he was nervous but she didn't know what was going on in his mind.She stood up and touched his biceps. He smiled at her touch and she smiled. "Why are you so tensed?" She asked.He shrugged. "What do you mean? I'm not tensed."Natalie smirked. "You are, Dante."Dante sighed and took a seat beside her on the bed. He massaged his throbbing temples and sighed again."Out with it!" Natalie exclaimed."I'm scared, Nat," he whispered.Natalie froze at the tone of his voice. Her p

She tried connecting the dots but at each point, she came up blank. Nothing made any sense whatsoever and Sophie had agreed to accompany Dante. It was only out of jealousy that she had decided to go with Dante. Could it be that this whole thing had been a trap to ruin her trust with Dante? What more can break a relationship except when they've lost trust in each other? First, she was made to lose faith in Dante by finding out about his affair with Sophie which wasn't so much of a big deal if she had just sat down to think about it. She massaged her temples as she felt the headache beginning to form. She needed to stay focused because that was what Sophie was trying to disrupt. For some reason, she knew that her coming here would do no good for either her or Dante. How could she have let this slip by so quickly? She picked up her pen and went to the board, there was a time when she had defeated Jared and Sophie, now was the same time to do just that. She examined the things that

Dante stepped out of the police van as he followed them to the cell where he would stay. "You will have to cool off here for the night, sir. Someone called us and suggested you spend the night here before you strangle your wife out of anger." Dante ignored the policeman as he thought about what Natalie had done. He knew he shouldn't be upset after what happened with Sophie but he was. In this frame of mind, he was willing to kill someone preferably Dario for touching her. And he has said he tasted his fucking wife! Those words alone had set his blood boiling with anger. He waited as the inspector opened the door and he entered his cell. His mind was reeling with lots of thoughts as he thought about what to do with Natalie. He didn't know if he should believe her when she said nothing happened. But the pictures... They were just too damn intimate for his liking and he wanted to strangle Dario for touching her the way only he could. How could she be so heartless and betray him li

He jerked away from her touch. "You've already embarrassed me before the media I don't care!""What nonsense are you talking about?" Dario asked."I'm talking about this!" Dante yelled shoving his phone in their face.Natalie gasped when she saw the pictures on his phone. It was when Dario had kissed her and when he had slipped her dress off her shoulder."Dante, this isn't what it looks like," she cried.He glared at her. "Yeah, then what does it look like?"Dario ran a hand through his hair. "Would you believe me if I say that I have no idea of how this came about?"Dante glared at him. "Try lying to someone else!""I swear Dante. The last thing I remembered was blacking out on the grass in the cliff before this whole kissing scenario after that blacking out everything is a blur," Dario stated."Are you trying to tell me that my wife is the one..."Dario interrupted him sharply. "Natalie would never do such a thing. I don't know what happened but it's not what you're thinking."Natal

His eyes narrowed into slits when he saw that she was still cuddled up with Dario while the media took pictures.How could she be asleep in this noisy environment?!Maybe because she had been so busy with something else, a malicious voice said in his mind.He noticed Natalie stirring and he glared at them trying to control his temper. "Get away from here!" He yelled at the media."She's waking and him too!"The media yelled ignoring him. He whirled around to see Natalie stretch and wake up before she froze at the flash of cameras.He saw the wild and confused look in her eyes and then she shook Dario awake. He saw how confused Dante looked and for some weird reason, he didn't believe a thing of what he had seen.Suddenly, the flashes of her naked body with Dario flashed in his mind and he gritted his teeth in anger."Mrs. Rodrio, are you trying to get back at your husband by cheating on him with his best friend?" One of the reporters asked.Natalie's eyes widened as he saw her grip Da

She froze. "Sorry for what, Dario?""Maybe if I hadn't encouraged you that day to go after him, If I had just slept with you that day then we would have ended up together," he murmured.Natalie frowned. "What are you talking about, Dario? Why are you bringing up the past?"He was looking at her but she was so sure he wasn't seeing her. She was sure he was in a reverie, probably transported back to ten years ago when she had gone to seduce him in his room."Dario?""If you had married me instead you won't be going through this pain. And I'm rich also just like Dante. Why did I ever push you away," he continued talking like he wasn't seeing her."Dario, what is wrong with you?" She asked sitting up.He ignored her and continued talking. "Perhaps, I can redeem that situation by making you mine. It's not too late."Her eyes widened. "The fuck are you talking about? It's fucking lat..."Her eyes were huge as she felt his soft lips on hers and his hands roaming around her body.She tried to

They stepped into the board meeting where the entire board of directors was waiting and the news playing on the television was the same news from earlier."Good day, Mr. and Mrs. Rodrigo," the assistant board chairman smiled at them.Natalie nodded as they hurriedly turned off the television.Quickly, they took their seats and she sat down beside her husband."The shares are falling drastically, Mr. Rodrigo!" one of the board members exclaimed."I think this video of you and your wife has gone viral!" Another added."Oh my gosh! This is a scandal associated with this company," someone chirped in."You need to address this matter as soon as possible, Mr. Rodrigo," someone added.Soon everyone was talking and he couldn't hear anyone again. He tried to calm them down but they were in full panic mode.Natalie wiggled out of his arms as she headed for the door."Where are you going, love?" He asked surprised.She shook her head. "I have to leave this place. I can't stay here any longer.""B
