“Sir! The young miss has been involved in an accident at the site!”

Rafael was in his office when his assistant told him the distressing news. His face froze, and he abandoned everything he had at hand.

“Cancel the meetings and ready the car. We leave immediately!”

Rafael hit the road to a private hospital where his wife was held. He couldn’t understand why she wasn’t taken to the South City Hospital where Carson could take proper care of his wife but when he found that his mother was around at the time of the accident, he let himself relax a bit.

Meanwhile, June had undergone all sorts of tests which she deemed useless as not a single hair on her head needed to be put in the right place. She felt like it was all a waste of time seeing she was not hurt but to avoid upsetting her dear mother-in-law, she submitted herself to the process.

Mrs Beatrice sat in the doctor’s office while June sat on her hospital bed, waiting for her mother-in-law’s verdict. “What did you find? Does she ha

    “Sister! Why are you so bent on slandering me? Why are you so-” April fell to the floor, tears streaming down her eyes. “The past few days have been hell for me since father’s untimely death, and mother’s insanity.”“I tried calling you for the longest time but you refused to pick my calls.” She wept, “Now you show up here and try to pin this on me? Why do you hate me so much, sister? What did I ever do?” The visitors were moved by compassion for April and scorn for her sister. “That woman is such a wicked person!” One said in anger.“She doesn’t care for her mother! She is just here to cause a scene!” Another said, “Why are they letting crap like her come into this house? Mrs Evelyn had already told us about this daughter of hers before she lost her mind. She should not be allowed to come into this house!”“Such a shameless woman! Bullying her younger sister for trying to carry the family name while she whores about! Despicable!”Soon enough, the entire house turned against June w

    The entire house was silent as eyes turned to April with shock. “It’s a lie! She isn’t alright! The doctors are coming to pick her up! I already told you all she lost her mind! Why...why can’t you see it?” April cried but this time no one bought her facade. People who were once on her side, having pity and empathy for her suddenly stepped aside in shock as they watched her lie repeatedly. “Mother! Please, stop this.” April moved towards Evelyn who stepped back in fear. “Please! I know you are hurting from father’s death but I promise, things will be fine. I will take care of you and your doctor will soon be here.”“Just-”“Do not take one more step,” June said in a tone that brought goosebumps to the skin of her hearers. “One more step and I promise, you would be taken to the hospital yourself.” When April found that no one believed her act and everything was out in the open, she wiped her face clean and put a stern look on her face. “Enough, June. Congratulations! You found a mad

    Rafael left the sitting room when Mrs Evelyn’s tears grew heavy. June’s heart broke at the sight of her mother looking so distraught and grieved. “Mother...” Her eyes glassed with unshed tears. “I don’t deserve your kindness,” Evelyn said and stood on your feet. “It's preposterous of me to accept anything from you after all I did to you.” “Mother..”“No.” Evelyn shook her head and wiped her tears. “What I did is unforgivable. I maltreated and let you suffer because I couldn’t deal with my grief.”Tears pooled June’s eyes as she listened to her mother. “All these years, I blamed you. I blamed you for getting lost as a child in that hospital. I blamed you for putting our family through tough times, I blamed you for my husband’s death. Anytime something evil came to me, I found a way to blame you for it.” “I hated the fact I lost you and couldn’t bear the guilt of losing you as a child in that hospital, so I decided to bring in someone who could replace you.

    Mrs Evelyn left the house a few hours after June left for work. It was past noon when she finally left the house with some money to aid her journey. She dressed in a black assemble and boarded a cab that headed to the Rivera family house. When she reached the neighbourhood, she put on her face mask and sneaked her way into the estate where her home stood in majesty. Her entry was swift and painless. The house seemed nearly deserted, and it was easy for her to manoeuvre her way into the place she had lived for most of her life. As soon as she got in, she headed right for her bedroom with her heart in her mouth. The last thing she wanted was to get caught in breaking into her own home, or worse, April finding out she was in the house. Evelyn was sure it wouldn’t end well if April met her in the house or got to know she had been anywhere near the parameters of the house. Nostalgic feelings attacked her upon entering her bedroom, and she was immediately reminded of who she had lost.

    CHAPTER I“You are pregnant?!”June was returning from a long day of work when she heard the voice of her mother-in-law from behind the front doors.“That’s so amazing! Congratulations, my son! You have finally proven that you are a man, and the problem was that low-life scum you married!”June walked into the house where she lived with her husband’s family, looking confused.“Hello, Mother,” she greeted her mother-in-law first, and all the former traces of joy were wiped from the elderly woman’s face.Olivia Lontoc, Ethan’s mother, answered with a grotesque look. “Don’t you dare call me mother! Don’t you know the woman that gave birth to you?!”“Oh, Mother, please don’t be upset,” a small voice said from behind her, notifying June of the presence of her sister behind her.Why was her sister in her home without prior notice?June moved to inquire, but the sight of her sister’s hand intertwined with her husband’s took words out of her mouth.“How can I not be upset when this barren wom

She will understand.”April shook her head. “Sister is out there in the streets. I need to go and beg her. I need to make sure she understands that I didn’t mean to hurt her!” she said, but he wouldn’t let her go.He turned to his mother, who immediately added her one cent into the matter. “Oh dear April, you have always had a kind heart,” she cooed. “Please stay the night here, and tomorrow, we will accompany you to the Rivera household. You should understand that you are pregnant and need to be under care. You can’t just go out in the cold.”“Please, honey, just stay the night,” Ethan begged, and though she pretended that she was upset, she nodded in agreement like a docile child.Immediately, a large smile pitched its tent on Ethan’s face, and he carried her bridal style into his room, muttering swee

The only thing we can do is make you have the time of your life before killing you now, June Rivera.”When June heard the sound of belts loosening, she became desperate. “Please! I will pay you double the amount! Just let me go! I promise!”One of them laughed. “Are you trying to dupe us? You think we don’t know that you have nothing to your name?”“Mrs. Rivera warned us that you might try to sweeten your way out of the deal. She told us what a scheming wench you can be,” he spat. “I intended to make the experience at least pleasant before you die, but you don’t deserve that!”June's eyes widened when she heard her mother’s name. Her mother had sent them. Her own mother had tried to assassinate her!The men took in her reaction and swore when they realized they had unintentionally exposed the name of

    June returned home from a long day of work at the site. The building project was on course after her designs were approved. Joel Patel and some men were assigned to ensure the building was a physical representation of the design while she handled the job of ensuring everything was under control. “There you are!” June jolted at the sound of her mother-in-law who approached her with a smile. “How are you doing?”“Mother!” She greeted me with a smile. “I’ve missed you!” “Oh dear, I missed you too. You and my sweet boys.” She cooed. “Have you eaten? I brought some food from home. Let’s have an early dinner. Just the two of us.” Mrs Beatrice had left the house a week ago to attend to pressing needs in the Ambrose family home. She didn’t specify how long she would stay but June was happy to have her. “Sure!” June took to her room, freshened up and joined her mother-in-law for an early dinner. The atmosphere was light as they spoke on light topics until Mrs Beatrice said, “I know my so

    “You’ve got to be joking,” Evelyn said with a small smile but was met with bone-serious looks from her daughter and her strange man. When she saw that this was not a joke, she lost it. “Are you crazy? Have you gone mad?! Do not for one moment think you can intimidate me into giving away my company because you will be in for a rude awakening.”“Read my lips. I am not Ethan. Neither am I any of his godforsaken parents, if you try to mess with me, I will bring you down without a moment's thought.”April and Colton shared gazes and burst into a round of mocking laughter together. “You didn’t tell me she was this feisty, darling,” Colton said and kissed the space between her neck and body. “Oh pay her no mind. She is all bark and no bite.” April said, closing her eyes as she leaned into the kiss. “I have her on leech.” Evelyn's eyes reddened and she shook with anger. “Just try me. I beg you. Test me this time and see if I don’t bite you. I am done playing your silly games, child.”She s

    June and her team were seated in one of Ambrose Corporation's meeting rooms, where they were set to present the final design of the new office project. While they waited for Rafael, June felt her nerves twist. She wanted her husband to like this design. With every project she embarked on, she aimed for perfection but with her husband in the picture, she was reaching for the stars. The last thing she wanted was to get this deal solely because she was his wife. Hence, when Rafael delayed to show up, her nerves twisted all over the place. Soon enough, Rafael came into the meeting, and they all stood up to welcome him. “I am sorry for my lateness.” He said with his eyes fixated on June. Lucy and Joel smiled awkwardly. They could wait a lifetime if it meant meeting with such a royalty-personified human! They must have done something right in their former lives to be blessed with such an opportunity! “It’s no problem,” June said and they all had their seats. Throughout the viewing, Ra
