Two Wives (English) Chapter 14 Weekend
AS USUAL, all I can do here is clean and cook. It's not a joke that it's hard to work at home. I'm thankful that someone came here every week to clean washed their clothes. "Mareng, I'll help you with that." I tried to say while lifting some dirty clothes that were in the laundry basket. "Oh, it's okay mom, I can handle this." Patting her hand in the air to stop me. "Then I'll continue with what you put on." I prescribe again. "Have you finished your work in the kitchen? Sir, Gab might see you and scold you again." she stopped me. I slightly pouted my lips at what she had said. She's witness to how Gabriel scolds me when he sees something wrong with me. It's a good thing that Mareng will say this sometimes. "I'm done, so I can help you hang up the clothes." I put my smile back on her. Eventually, she didn't do anything because I started hanging clothes on the clothesline. "Why don't you look for another job? After all, you graduated from college," she comment. I have a deep si

"I'M SORRY, I was just shocked when I used the iron," I whispered, my lashes lifted with a soft plea. "I'm sorry?! You haven't done anything right here at home, and that's all I can hear from you, sorry?!" he shouted, narrowing his eyes at me. I was swallowed by what he said. My lips were almost bleeding from holding back the tears, and my two hands fisted with silent anger. If I open my lips something else might come out of my mouth. "You know what?! Marcus was right, we shouldn't have hired you here as a maid. Since you came here everything in this house get worst. If it weren't for Sandra, you wouldn't have been here for a long time," he said without a blanch or blink. I heard myself stammer and tremble. I wanted to stop crying but it quickly dripped from my treacherous eye. Gabriel stood and watched me for a long moment. He sighed, trying to expel the tension. The silence lingered so long, he saw how I wiped away the tears that dripped. "Look, Emory..." His voice was differe

I WAS so nervous as Alessandra laid out the guest lists one by one at the table who will attend the house blessing of their house next week. I looked carefully to see if I knew a prominent person who could meet Gabriel just in case. "Do you think the number of guests in attendance is okay? If I increase so?" Alessandra said while scratching the pen over her head. My eyes widened, "Are you sure you want more? It looks like your yard will be full just in case." I commented, trying to convince her intention. "Hmm, there's still a backyard, that's okay so I can have a pool party," she excitedly said, before bending down at the table and checking the list of invitation recipients. "Eh, how about the one you sent earlier?" I continue to be convinced of it. "It's alright, they won't be over twenty," she replied quickly. "Hmm," That's all I could hear. I pulled the lists she would send an invitation to. I immediately frowned at the familiar name there. Suddenly I was also sweat

HIS MOUTHED open, staring at me with wide eyes. He quickly leaned back in his chair and smacked his palm against his forehead. "How did it happen?" he asked suspiciously. "I hired an investigator a year ago. I gave him all the information I could to find Zekiah. And only in recent months have I received information about him." "Are you sure about that? Maybe that investigator is just fooling you because of the big reward in return?" "I'm with him at home." I'm sure I said. "No, you can't be serious, Emory!" he raised his eyebrows, clenched hand over his head. "I'm dead serious, Ellwood! He's alive, he's alive... and I already talked to him." I quickly responded. It was too late for me to retract what I said because his eyebrows seemed to rise even higher at the last thing I said. "Isn't that the ghost you say you can talk to?" he said, crinkling his eyes and nose. "Ellie!" I shot him a look and muttered some curses. "Alright, I believe so, so where is he? Why didn't you includ

I CLEANED all day on Saturday, even though Alessandra had staff come to fix the house for the house blessing. I still hadn't gone to work. Elie confirmed to me that Mommy didn't show up tomorrow, I didn't even ask what happened to Mom as long as I was very grateful for what she did. "Ah, Meredith!" Alessandra calls attention to me from downstairs. I was on the balcony and wiping the glass door there. "Yes, Sandra?" the stingy smile flashed on me. "Come here and join us for a snack!" she looked up at me. "Uh, that's okay! I'll just finish cleaning this first," my answer. "Come on! Get that down here!" She ignored what I said. I decided to follow what she said and went downstairs to share a snack with them. They deliver food from a popular fast-food chain. Nor did it forget to introduce me to those in front. "Guys, my new housemaid, Meredith" She introduced me to them. My lips twitched because of what she did outright. I smiled a bit, to dispel the loneliness. "They are my frie

IT WAS exactly noon and the sun was burning high in the sky. The guests arrived one by one. Alessandra entertained the guests, wearing a lovely champagne dress. That color is her thing. She's shining like a sun pouring heat onto Gabriel's face. They welcomed the guests and have a small chitchat after that. I glanced at what I was wearing. I only wear a straight cut dress, tie my hair into a sweet bread and a light touches of make-up. Very simple and not intimidating, not like Alessandra. I pursed my lips, why do I have to compare myself to her? I seem to be losing the confidence to question myself. I silently watched them from where I was standing with some waitresses and staff. If crying was the way to get rid of the pain I would have done it earlier. But what is the effective way to get rid of the disease? Maybe that's if I don't breathe and just close my eyes and go deaf to everyone. "Meredith," Mareng touched me. I reluctantly looked at her, "Mareng," I smiled at her shyly. "A

"OH, MY GOD!" The girl, beside Marcus, exclaimed. Everyone is in shock, even more, distracted by the breaking of the glasses. "Hey, are you alright?" Marcus tried to approach me when the woman next to him stopped him. She started whispering to Marcus as they noticed the arrival of someone. Their eyes darted on me, almost all. The white dress I was wearing earlier was almost red because of the wine stain on my dress. I bit my lower lip, when I felt Gabriel's tighter grip on my wrist. "I – I'm so sorry," I whispered, bowing my head. "What is happening here?" A high voice turned to me. Her violet eyes strayed at me, and the aristocrat of her face darkened slightly as she approached us. I immediately felt Gabriel release my hand and faced the visitor. "Just a slight trouble," Gabriel said to her Mother-in-law. Instead of looking at Gabriel, she looked at me. She checked me again, her brows hitched with displeasing, and give me a crudely insulting stare. "You're just going to do a s

THE NEXT DAY I got up early go to my rental apartment for my day off. Although I didn't want to, I agreed to Alessandra's suggestion. I don’t want him to think I want to always be at home to see Gabriel when he's on a day off. "Are all your things okay?" Alessandra asked me, she wiped her mouth before finally turning to look at me. "Uh, yeah. I only have a few things." I replied timidly, they accompanied me to breakfast. Now that I'm with them again, more often than not I reject Alessandra's offer to avoid the pain it brings me. "That's good, I'll just send you together Gabriel so that it won't be difficult for you to go home, " she declared, before drinking pineapple juice from the glass. My gaze flew quickly to Gabriel who was holding the newspaper in his hand. He doesn’t bother to engage in the conversation so I don’t know what his reaction was to Alessandra’s suggestions. "Then, I'll just pick you up maybe tomorrow morning or tonight," she added, without confirming his husban

"Nice... I love the party..." His one hand was inside his pocket while the other was holding the glass of cocktail juice, sipping on it coolly. "I wanted it simple and solemn. I didn't invite big names and personalities," I said. "Is he invited? Did you inform him?" He asked smoothly. But before I could even answer him, my eyes caught that man walking inside the entrance of the gate. My heart was frozen by his surprise appearance. Looking so magnificently hot and seductive in his navy blue long sleeve polo that folded up to his forearms. He never failed to clutch my heart out and leave me breathless. I watched him cross the crowded people while his eyes never left mine. I wanted to stare at him more, but it was cut off when I heard Ellwood clearing his throat beside me. "Whatever speech you have boiling, I don't wanna hear it," I said through my tight lips. I heard him chuckled lowly before leaving me alone and greeting Hezekiah. "Dude, long time no see... I'm glad you came." E

I realized a lot of this when Alessandra and I had a talk. I left her with a light heart and there's no anger left inside. Even before, I already forgave her.I halted from my tracks when I felt something wet gushed on my thighs. Then my stomach rumbled in pain."Oh God!"I quickly walked to the car. My delivery seemed earlier than the due date? I thought I could still drive but I can't take the pain.I was left with no choice but to call Ellwood."What?! We... wait, where exactly are you?!" he frantically said.I told him the exact place and after only a few minutes, I heard his car nearing.I woke up in a child's loud cry. I slowly opened my eyes and looked for the baby."Hey, wonder woman."My eyes lifted to Ellwood. I can't help but to smile.Beside him was a man carrying a child. My tears started forming at that scene."You're here?" I uttered in my low and weak voice.Ellwood glanced at Hezekia

"Were not yet through, my wife," he spoke in a rough voice, making sure he has control over me."Please just fucking let go off me..." I thought it would come out as a hard tone, but it came out almost like a whisper in the wind."I know you've been dreaming of me last night, every fucking minute of your night. I know deep there inside, you wanted this much to happen as much as I want you..." His soft tone vibrated all over my nerves."No. I don't... I can't!" I sterntly said. Tears formed around my eyes but I didn't let it fall."As much as I wanted to be near you or being with you. I just can't... I couldn't, Hezekiah." I slowly shook my head."It's not that easy. Alessandra is alive and your child... your child you chose over me!" My voice already cracked but I still my managed myself."No, Sweetheart," he whispered softer now."Please..." I struggled to get off of his hold but he didn't let me."Just one more chance, sweeth
Two Wives (English) Chapter 120 Ribbon Cutting
"What time is the ribbon cutting again?"I was talking about the opening of the Jewelry shop Hezekiah built. He also invited me to the mall in Manila that just got finished, but I couldn't go because it's too far. I decided to just go to the new branch of the company because it doesn't sit right that I couldn't attend this event, too."10 am in the morning, so may you still have time to think about it again." She rolled her eyes and stood up."Come on, Zuay! I know it's not you..." I teased. Even if she said that she hates Hezekiah, I know she's still hoping for us to get back together again."Tss... I better go back to work." She turned around and and left my office.After she closed the door, I leaned my back against the chair. I gently caressed my baby bump and closed my eyes.He shouldn't find out about my pregnancy. Not because I don't want to give him his rights as a father, but because I'm scared of the result once he found out.

I chuckled lightly, "We already talked, he went to Galla a few days before I flew black here. He asked for my forgiveness and a chance, but–""No, no, wait... you mean, you two talked and you didn't even mention your situation?"I slowly shook my head.My gaze lifted to him when he held my hand above the table."You should've told him that you are pregnant."My lips quivered while staring at him. I didn't expect him to say that. I know he didn't like Hezekiah for me even way before. Why does it seem like the world just turned upside down?"No, I can't..." I shook my head again.His eyes lingered on me. He slowly caressed my hand and looked darkly at me."I want to show you something..."We didn't finish our food because we quickly walked our way to his car.I didn't ask where we were going, but based on the path we're taking, I think I know where it will be.When his car stopped in front of Cervantes

Carrying the bottle of wine and long glass, I walked my way to his cabin. I know the risk of taking this chance, but I have to do this to clear things out. What's about to happen may exceed my expectations, but I don't want to worry about it now. Clad with the tiny speck of courage left in me, I raised my hand to knock on his door. The door opened and I saw shock registered on his face when he saw me but composed himself right after. "Uh, I–I ah..." I quickly raised the bottle of wine and the long glass. Instead of saying anything, he just got the bottle and glass from me. He pulled the door close which made me step back... "Didn't you enjoy your wine?" His voice flowed calmly. My breathing hitched as he stepped closer, not wanting to be inches apart. "Yeah, we need to talk." I finally said. We're now facing each other in front of the small table of his cottage. He poured himself a glass of wine and took it all in one g

From a distance, I could already see Ellwood at a corner of the restaurant. He glanced at me and slid his phone on his pocket before standing up. "I'm glad you accepted my invitation." I said formally before offering my hand for a handshake. "My schedule is not that tight today," he said and sat down. I signaled the waiter to serve the foods and drinks I reserved. "I wanna go straight to the point. I want to pay all of the Cervantes' debts on you and your family. Even the interests and your effort and swats on the company. Name it, I'm ready to pay." "I better get going, dear." Aling Sita stirred me from my thoughts. She's probably finished cleaning the vacant cottage. "Why don't you join me in breakfast?" "Thank you, dear, but I have to clean a lot of rooms. And I already had my breakfast earlier, " she said. I glanced at the cottage beside mine before turning to him again, "Is someone gonna rent the vacant cottage?"

"How are you, you went late, huh?" He put two beers on the table and sat in front if me inside the cottage."I just worked overtime. Are the kids asleep?"He seemed to not believe my reason because his eyes went to my swollen lips."Yes, they have school tomorrow."Silence ensued between us."Is it about Emory?"My jaw clenched as I drank off the bottle of beer I'm holding."You won't come here at this late hour if you're problem is not that heavy," he said.I only shook my head and continued drinking."Come on, it's just women. Why don't you leave the other one? Problem solved!" I heard him chuckle before holding his own bottle of beer .I chuckled, if only it's that easy, I would've done that before."Why? Do you love both?"I licked my lips, not knowing what to answer, "You have a lot of questions." A smile appeared on my lips because of his nosiness."I'm serious. I know you love someone more that the other."I shook my head on him. "If

I carefully sat on a chair near her and watched her sleep in slumber. My eyes went to her baby bump. If I'm not mistaken, it's her due month. I can't help but to smile bitterly. I slowly raised my hand and caressed her stomach. If my child didn't die, it's probably my due month, too. Again, the splinter of pain in my heart intensified. I could still feel here inside, digging and buried deep right into my heart. Endless, as if the pain will never stop. "Emory..." I quickly turned to Alessandra's voice. I also quickly removed my hand from her stomach. "H-Hi, how are you?" I said as I cleared my throat. She smiled timidly, "You're here..." she said in her weakened voice. I didn't answer. I also want to ask myself why I decided to come with Marcus. But when I looked into her eyes and watched how she suffered from all of this, I also wanted to question all I went through and ask if what she experienced was actually more painful than
