CHAPTER 9: MISSING HER GRANDMA
Leonard is walking back and forth in his office. He was thinking ways about how will he approaches his wife. He wanted to invite her to come to the house of his grandfather.
However, his secretary wondered why his boss was so anxious. It was the first time she saw his boss being like this, but she just ignored it, and she slowly reaches it to ask about the food she was holding. "Sir, here is the food you requested. Will I prepare it already?" She raises her hands to show him the food she was carrying for him.
When he heard of what his secretary said, he paused for walking and turned to her. "Yes, please," he said.
His secretary immediately prepared the food on an empty table located on the side of her desk. Then she informs him again that the food she was preparing was ready. "Sir, the food is ready. You may eat now."
"Thank you, Lalaine," he answered her and sit
CHAPTER 10: THE SCHEMELeonard had already finished the documents signed, so he looked at his watch to know the time. It was 7: 00 in the evening. He quickly arranged for his desk to go home early. He even canceled all his meetings today to talk to his wife.It's not his habit to go home early, but because he wanted to speak to his wife to be willing to come with him tomorrow to his grandfather's house, so he was forced to go home. It was his first time trying to ask for a favor from someone, and the worst thing is, to his wife, whom he hated, but he could not do anything because his grandfather requested it, and he does not want his grandfather to be disappointed in him.He called his secretary to get his car ready. "Miss Trinidad,""Yes, sir," she quickly answered his boss."Please tell my driver to get ready the car." He commanded her.His secretary wondered why his boss wanted to go home early ev
CHAPTER 11: THE REQUESTAlyssa wondered why his husband seemed to stutter when it's speaking, and why his face seemed no trace of anger talking to her, that she knew he hated her, but even though she was wondering, she didn't dare to ask, so she just answered his question."Ahm, okay,"They both sat on the bed to talk, then Alyssa looked at her husband and asked again, "What are we going to talk about?"Leonard was also looking at her, but he seemed anxious as he stared at his wife. So much sweat dripped down the side of his forehead that he couldn't explain. It is because clearly, Leonard saw his wife's cleavage. He wonders why he is sweating when he would have been used to seeing a sexy woman, but why does in her case it is different?Her beautiful cleavage occupied his mind that he could no longer hear what her wife is saying."Hey, are you okay? Is there anything that bothered you?" Alyssa asked
CHAPTER 12: STARING SECRETLYAlyssa suddenly woke up because of thirst. She looked around as she rubbed her right eye. She notices that her husband was standing while turning his back.She wondered what it was doing, but he didn’t ask because it might make him angry again. She stood up and walked out of the room.When suddenly her husband asked, “Where are you going?”She turned in his direction and asked as her finger pointed to herself, “Are you talking to me?”“Who do you think am I talking, too? When it was only the two of us?” he answered sarcastically.Alyssa was irritated by the sarcastic response of her husband, but she still answered him calmly because she knew she had nothing against him.“I’ll just drink water.” She answered.Leonard had frowned with the answer of his wife. He thought to himself how stupid it is to g
CHAPTER 13: VISITING THE OLD MANSIONShe adjusted her dress while she was outside in their walk-in closet. She walked towards the door to get out of the room with her head down when she suddenly bump into something.Due to the forceful bump, her lips landed into it. She notices it was a bit firm and smooth and a bit of a captivating scent. She gently rubbed it to find out what she bumped into when her husband suddenly spoke, "Are you finished?"She was taken aback by what it said. It was the body of her husband that she groped. Her cheeks blushed with shame."I-I'm sorry, I did not mean it," Alyssa said. Then she walks out of the room.When she was on the outside already, she first looks around to see if there was no one else. When she confirmed that she was alone, this is what Alyssa uttered in her mouth to herself. "Oh, God, what have I done? It's embarrassing," Her face turns red at the embarrassment she
CHAPTER 14: THE CALLAlyssa got to the garden, and there she saw her husband talking on the phone. She didn't want to disturb her husband, so she carefully approached him when she accidentally heard her husband's conversation on the phone."Babe, you know that I love you right, so will you please trust me? Whoever telling you that I don't love you anymore, well she is wrong because until now you are still making my heart beat so fast, and don't worry, I'll take care of her."She suddenly became cold. It was as if cold water has poured on her because of what her husband had said. That came to the point that she could not move her body.As if it was numb at the same time, her heart seemed to stop beating. Then, her tears dripped. Her tears wake her up to the fact that she had to escape from where she positioned. To stay away from the man who had hurt her heart.She runs away from her husband. She runs without
CHAPTER 15: THE ARRIVALEthan arrives at the old mansion of his grandfather. He was carrying the clothes of Alyssa. As soon as he entered the house, his grandfather welcomes him immediately."Ethan, how are you? How is your business going?" Master Guang asked."It's okay grandpa, my business is doing pretty well now, so I have a lot of free time," Ethan responded to his grandfather."Oh, good to know, but you must remember this grandson, don't be complacent. You have to focus on your business. You never know when your opponent will attack." Master Guang advised his grandson."Okay, grandpa, I will," Ethan answered with a smile."By the way, why did you call us? What is the occasion, grandpa?" Ethan asked.Master Guang sighed before answering his grandson. "Your aunt is going home with her family, and they will come tonight."Ethan exclaimed at what Master Guang had said, "What! Aunt is going home, an
CHAPTER 16: PREPARATIONThe maids in Master Guang's house were busy preparing food because his only daughter Mrs. Jing Chin is coming together with her family as we are in the living room waiting for their arrival. Finally, two hours later, the family arrived.Master Guang first approached the family. He was delighted to see the daughter, who had not been home for a long time."Dad, how are you? I miss you so much, daddy." The woman said while crying.Master Guang also burst into tears at his daughter and hugged her tightly. "I miss you too, my daughter." Master Guang said."Hmmm, dad, meet your granddaughter Jia." She held his daughter as she introduced her to Master Guang.I was amazed by my husband's cousin. She is so beautiful, and her height was just like a model, and the way she moves as a sophisticated woman."Hi, grandpa, how are you?" she greeted her grandfather, simultaneously hug hi
CHAPTER 17: MY FIRST EXPERIENCELeonard woke up early and immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower. While I was still sound asleep. After Leonard took a bath, he dressed immediately in a white t-shirt that perfectly fits his hunk body, and then he paired it with blue jeans. When he finished getting dress, he tapped me on the shoulder to wake me up.When I noticed that someone tapped me, I woke up. I rubbed my eyes to see, who had tapped me, and Leonard was the one I saw. He was sitting right beside me. As he noticed me slowly opening my eyes, this is what he said, "Alyssa, you take a bath now so that we can leave early."Without question, I nodded at what he said and got up from my bed. Then I took my towel and went straight into the bathroom. After I bathe, I retook my towel and wipes it on my delicate skin, and when I had finished wipes the wet part of my body, I wrapped it around my body.I enjoyed the
CHAPTER 49: THE BLESSINGAlyssa was already lying on her bed and about to sleep when suddenly her grandma knock on her door. Even though she was lazy to get up because of her unceasing crying next to her grandma earlier, it still forced her to stand up.She opened her door. “What is it, grandma?” she asked.“You have a visitor.” Her grandma said.She was wondering why she had a visitor when she never expects someone. “Who was it, grandma?” she asked.Her grandma grabbed her and said, “Don’t ask anymore. Just come with me.” She did nothing but follow her.When they arrived in the living room, her eyes widened at what she saw. Her heart suddenly beats so fast. As if she couldn’t move. Her grandmother motioned Leonard to come over to her and left the living room to give them space.“W-What are you doing
CHAPTER 48: HAPPY ENDING OR NOT?I saw him already dressed. My husband would surely go to the office. I wanted to approach him, but I did not have the strength to do it. I have no face to look at him, and I am ashamed of him especially, with Leonard’s brother, Ethan. For me, it was my fault why we lost our child. If I had just followed what Ethan told me. I would not have run over by the car. I am to blame for everything, but that is not what happened.I could see that my husband seemed to blame himself. I feel it. Every night in our sleep, I wake up hearing my husband crying. He was crying in his dream. Apologizing to our son, and worst of all, he always spoke to it wishing that it should be him. He should be the one who disappears, which further causes pain in my heart that seems to be slowly crushing my heart into pieces. It comes to where I could no longer breathe.For me, I am a useless wife. I couldn’t sleep every ni
CHAPTER 47: THE EVICTIONThree days after, Alyssa had returned to their home, grieving. Alyssa never leaves the room and always cries. She could hardly eat and could not accept the loss of her child.Leonard could do nothing but watch his sad wife in the distance. They never talk to each other anymore, and so did Ethan before Ethan, used to approach Alyssa easily.Alyssa seems to have a change after the tragedy.Leonard is already wearing an executive suit to go to the office today because it is the day that he will evict his aunt’s son, Ru. Just a few days ago, it was the one who fills his position temporarily, since that day, many shareholders and workers had complained about it because of its wrong policy.Today, he will also put an end to his aunt’s evil deed. They found out that this was the mastermind behind the accident of Alyssa and that she used Elena to be her bait from his ex-girlfrie
CHAPTER 46: THE PAINFUL MOMENTLeonard was about to enter Alyssa’s room when someone called on his cellphone, so he didn’t enter first and answer the call. “Hello,”The man on the other line told him something. It was his trusted bodyguard, Joey. “Okay, Joey, thanks for the info.” And he immediately dropped the call.He searched in his contact list and was about to call her ex-girlfriend (Elena) when suddenly his phone rang and coincidentally it is Elena. He answered it immediately. “Hello, why did you call?” he asked her, pretending that he didn’t know the reason when in fact; he already had a clue why it called him. He just wanted to know if his ex-girlfriend will tell the truth.“Leonard, can we talk in person? I have a confession to you.” She begged.“Whatever it is, tell me here on the phone. Don’t you worry; I will listen to everything yo
CHAPTER 45: THE TRUTH BEHIND THE ACCIDENTElena was inside her color black car. She gets her cellphone that was inside the glove box of her car. Elena wanted to call someone. She dialed the number and immediately put the cellphone on her right ear.“Hello,” the number she was calling answered. It was a voice of a woman.“I was in the parking lot, as you instructed me. What now? Have you ever called his wife to see me? Did you tell her I was pregnant and Leonard was the father? Is she going to come here, or maybe you're just fooling me and waiting for her for nothing? I’m a busy person! I don’t want my time to be wasted!” she said to the person she was talking to on the phone.“Relax, my dear. Don’t worry, everything is in line with my plans, and she's on her way there.” The person she was talking to on the other line answered. Then she immediately dropped the c
Chapter 44: THE TRUTH JAMES FOUND OUTThey transferred Alyssa to the V.I. P room. She still sounded asleep as Leonard sat next to Alyssa, waiting for her to wake up. Ethan went home to get dress and rest at the same time.About a few minutes later, James entered the room. He approached Leonard. "Leonard, your grandpa, and aunt are here. Should I let them in?" he asked Leonard."No, the noise might awake Alyssa. I'll just go outside. Please, watch her for me. I'll just come out." Leonard begged. James nodded to Leonard. Then Leonard went outside the room.James took place the seat where Leonard sat earlier. He looked at the woman who was his best friend claimed as his wife. When his eyes suddenly widened at what he saw.It was the girl he saw from the road soaking wet in the rain five months ago. The woman he fell in love at first sight with and the woman he can't forget. 'No, this can't be. I think I’m just imagini
CHAPTER 43: GONELeonard is ready to go to the hotel. Suddenly someone knocks on his door. “Come in,” he commanded, but it still didn’t stop knocking. He felt irritated, so he approached the one who knocks on his door to open it, and when he opens it, a smiling man appeared in front of him who marks the deep dimples on his cheeks.Leonard smiled back at it. “When did you back?” Leonard asked the man.“Hmm, six months ago,” the man said.“Six months ago?” Leonard wrinkled his forehead. “But why did you show up just now? You are something.” Leonard smirks at it.“Won’t you even let me into your office first, before you interrogate me?” the man asked.Leonard cleared the way. The man he was talking to immediately entered his office. It was James Torres, the acquaintance of Alyssa. It turned out to be his best friend. “I’ve
CHAPTER 42: THE ACCIDENTEverything is ready for the baby shower. They held it in one of the most famous hotels in their city. Leonard’s aunt went to the hotel first. She is the one who prepares everything at Master Guang’s command.Ethan and Alyssa are also getting ready for the party, while Leonard could not accompany her. Because the paper works stuck him in the office and they already talked to each other that Alyssa will go to the hotel first to be accompanied by Ethan.Ethan was in the living room standing as he watches Alyssa slowly descend the stairs wearing a powder blue sleeveless knee-length maternity dress. Her beauty suddenly stunned him.Alyssa wonders why Ethan’s eyes didn’t blink at all while staring at her, so she waved her hand at his face. “Hey, are you okay?” she asked.Ethan was back to himself. “Oh, sorry, I’m okay,” he responded. &
CHAPTER 41: HIS SECRETARY'S BETRAYALAlyssa and Ethan have returned to their home. Ethan immediately informed his grandfather of the good news. It thrilled the old Master Guang to know that the baby in Alyssa’s womb is in good condition. Especially when he found out that Alyssa was pregnant with a boy, so Master Guang had a shower party to reveal.Out of excitement, Master Guang immediately called his daughter Jing Chin (the aunt of Leonard and Ethan). He was standing in the living room. “Jing, my dear daughter, please come here for a moment. I have something important to announce to you.”Leonard’s aunt immediately approached her father. “Yes, dad, what do you want to announce?” she asked Master Guang.“Finally, Alyssa found out the gender of her pregnancy, and it’s a boy. Hahaha, hahaha…! I’m so happy, Jing, that God blessed me again of a great-grandson.” Mast
