“Giselle, is there something you are not telling me?” Ethan said sweetly but very authoritative as he wanted to know all that was happening to the woman he loves. Giselle was torn apart thinking about what she should or should not tell him so as to avoid trouble of any sort, even though she was still sure that he would not give her trouble. “Actually, something happened today and I did not want to tell you, so knowing that you knew about it already feared me.” “Why? What happened today? Is everything alright?” “Everything sure is fine. I hope it is at least. I was expecting Jason to let you know what happened but he did not say anything either so I did not feel like it anymore.” “Oh! That must have been so terrible because it sounds like it is but all the same, I expected Jason to have said something to me if it was that bad.” “Maybe he did not just want you worried like this or maybe he just left it for me to do, unknowing to him that this is one of the last things I want to do
It looked like she was madly in love again, but this time it was with the right person so there was no cause for alarm whatsoever as everything would fall in place.After several hours of making love to each other, they started cuddling up and staring at each other instead of drifting off immediately to sleep like they did the other time.Now, he was telling her how he loved her so deeply and was willing to do anything she wanted for their union to fall in place so Giselle decided it was best if she let the cat out of the bag.She remembered when she told him about her husband and all that he did to her, he had taken it so maturely that Giselle herself could not help but admire him.So if there is one thing that she was sure of, it had to be that he would respect her decisions and he would do it in a way that made sense.Even if he was so angry and flaring up, he would do his best not to show it in a way that was negative and could hurt her, but he would tell her in a sensible manner.
“I would be leaving for the mall now, baby boy, should I leave you here with the awesome cook or we should go together?” Giselle asked Jason as she knelt down to the beautifully dressed boy.Even though she had asked for permission from his father already for them both to go out, she still felt it was completely necessary to seek the boy’s opinion before they went out.She knew that as a child, it would be his utmost joy to go out and play, see new things and meet new people but this is one child that could hardly ever be predicted.He was just as wise as his father at this small age of his and he could easily predict if things would not be so great for him out there and decide to stay inside.But at the same time, Giselle believes that you cannot know everything that needs to happen so it was just the best thing to shoot your shot at life and take your chances as it goes.Since they had already had a discussion on that issue before this time, she expected that she would get a positiv
Immediately Giselle got that message, she couldn’t help but blush and love the way things were going on between her and Ethan. They were flowing more with each other and she loved it.It was not up to 10 seconds after she had conspired with Ethan to ask the ladies out that the both of them came to her to inform her that they had an errand they needed to run.When she was not speaking, they quickly added that Jason was preoccupied with his favorite show so she need not to worry about him. Giselle was tempted to ask them what it was that they were going to do and where they were headed to because she was curious about what Ethan had cooked up so fast but she refrained from doing that.It could be looking into their private business and it was not really her business what they did or did not do so she decided to stay cool and wish them all the best.Maybe the cook saw how curious she was looking and surprised, even though she was feigning it, so she quickly told her that they would be g
As Giselle continued to laugh, Ethan's expression softened, a genuine smile plastered on his face, He couldn't get enough of her cuteness and her baby attitude. He held out her arms, his eyes filled with affection and amusement. This was what he wanted all his life and it's already happening in front of him, His joy knew no bounds seeing the smiles on her face and her dramatic moments is something he can't get tired of. "Come here mama" he said, his voice filled with affection and she couldn't help it but gigled because of the way he called her mama, it sounded so cute. Unable to resist his contagious laughter, Giselle stepped forward and fell into his embrace enjoying the warmth of his hands, she enjoyed every bit of it. She buried her face into his chest, her laughter slowly subsiding into gentle giggles and excitement. Ethan wrapped his arms around her, holding her more closer because he is enjoying the calmness he derive from the hug. The warmth of his touch and the sound of hi
They sat together, holding hands as they started to eat and one thing kept coming to Giselle’s heart and it showed on her face as she could not help herself blush uncontrollably. It started off when she was finally able to settle in the room and see the memories of what had happened to them the night before. “You look so beautiful when you smile like that?” Ethan said, cutting her off her thoughts but making her smile again and this time her face even flushed harder. “Stop behaving like that to me, you don’t want to know what I am thinking to look that way at you, or do you? Seems like you are pushing me to talk” Giselle said “Oh, I would love to push you back to that bed though, but let me know what you are talking about first, maybe it would make me push you harder” Ethan was flirting with her again and she could not help but laugh out loud. She went on and on to tell him about how she was feeling and how it was great that they were together, she loved him already and she hoped
"It's because I am inlove with him so what?" I threw back the question at him and he stood there dumfounded not knowing what to say or do."Just tell me you are joking, He stole you away from me but I was the first to confess and he is always competiting with me for everything" He gnash his teeth furious, anger coursing through his veins. Giselle took a step back, alarmed by his sudden outburst not even understanding why he is flaring up. She knows rejection can be hurtful and she feels is not all about who confessed first but the person her heart really beat of, the rest things doesn't really matters to her. "Listen, Griffin, I appreciate everything you've done for me, but my heart belongs to Ethan now, we are not talking about who confess first but who my heart really beat for. I thought we were friends, but you need to understand that I can't force feelings that aren't there, it's not possible and can never be possible. I'm sorry if this hurts you, but I can't change how I feel,I
Giselle scanned the surrounding area still thinking she would find the person who was peaking on her and her family, her eyes searching for any sign of the person who was watching her thinking she would be able to see the person. Jamie didn't notice his mother uneasiness because he was focused on the ice cream Giselle got for him but Tasha notice and she also was staring around because she sighted someone watching them strangely too But there was no one in sight, just the fading light of the setting sun, little children and their parents running around the pack, they both couldn't find the person anymore."Did you see someone too, Giselle?" Tasha asked, concern etched on her face as she stood up next to Giselle, Jamie holding onto her hand tightly as he kicked his ice cream while watching video with Giselle's phone, He wearing a headphone so he was not aware of his mom and her bestfriend conversations. "I thought I saw someone watching us, but the person just disappeared. Maybe it w
Soon after concluding on their next plan, Athena left together with Theo.The moment they left the room, the masked man raised his hands and removed the black mask on his face, revealing a very familiar and unexpected face. Griffin.The men also did the same thing and removed their masks.Griffin placed the mask down and tap his right index on the table in contemplation. "But Boss... what if this plan does not work?" his assistant asked in doubt and the rhythmic tapping stopped before Griffin replied."If it does not work, then we move ahead with plan B, if she can not belong to me, she cannot belong to anybody else. But the plan should work out, I have planned everything meticulously."His assistant nodded and asked again."Since you already have everything planned, why are you still hiding your face from Athena and Theo? Since they've become your accomplice, shouldn't you show them who you are?" Griffin chuckled at that question and peered at his assistant. "If this plan fails a
"Can you give me one last chance? I am sure Ethan still loves me, he was just hooked by that slut." Athena pleaded and the masked man kept quiet for some seconds, then he nodded. "If you still can't make him come to you, we will have to kill him." the man said and she nodded. She would not miss this chance. ... As Ethan had said, they did not meet Lucy when they got home the next morning. It was like she was never there, all traces of her just disappeared. Giselle quickly went to the kids room to check up on them, Jason was already dressed and when she entered Jamie's room, she found that he was still sleeping. She stormed over instantly, preparing to reprimand him. "Get your lazy bum up right now." When she got to him, she noticed that his face was red and pale. Startled, she quickly felt his temperature and knew that he had a fever. It made her anxious. Jason entered the room that moment. "Quick, tell Ethan to call the doctor, Jamie is running a fever." she said and Jas
Giselle ran with her hands covering her mouth.Her muffled cries echoed through the silent hallway and soon, she heard the sound of footsteps behind her."Giselle, please wait, there is a misunderstanding." Ethan shouted behind her but she did not stop to listen.Ethan had already added one piece to another and concluded that Athena was the one behind all this mess, if only Giselle could listen to his explanation.He had already guessed that the smell he had perceived earlier was an aphrodisiac because he could feel his whole body was burning.But because he was running, it reduced the effects of the drug.Giselle quickly entered the elevator before Ethan could reach and left.The anxious Ethan quickly took the steps but when he got to the lower floor, he could only watch as Giselle left."Do you think she would listen to you?" Ethan suddenly heard a mocking voice behind him and when he turned to look, he saw that it was Theo.Ethan stormed over to his side and grabbed him by his coll
Ethan was in his office going through some files when a message came in on his private number. The only people that has access to his private number is his Family, Giselle, the two boys and Fred, his assitant. So, when the phone vibrated to notify him that there was a new message, he instantly picked it up and saw that there was a message from Giselle. "I am so sorry for everything that I have done that made you angry, I have wronged you in many ways and to apologize for it, I have planned a surprise for you, that was what I went to do this evening with Lucy. Come to the Dela Cruz Hotel at 10pm, room 106, I will be waiting for you. Love, Giselle." Ethan smiled after reading the message, he had given her a cold shoulder this morning, she must be feeling guilty, so she had quickly organize a surprise to make up to him. Ethan was surprised that Giselle could be this romantic, he was not expecting it but he was eager to see what she had in plan for him. Ethan decided to call his ch
Theo stared at Athena and took one step back to check if he had entered the right room.When he confirmed that it was indeed the room that strange man had instructed him to go to, he furrowed his brows.He pushed Athena aside and entered the room, he did not bother about the woman that was cursing loudly behind him but he sat down comfortably and stared at her."So, what were you saying?" he asked and Athena scowled."What are you doing here?" Athena asked, hoping that he was not the one that man had sent.She could not imagine herself working for someone like him, she even found him irritating."I am here because someone asked to come, what do you think?"Athena sighed helplessly, knowing already that he was the one she had been waiting for.The bastard had even wasted her time and kept her waiting, if she had known that it was him, she would not have waited at all."Who sent you?" Athena asked again and Theo shrugged. "I don't know, that man just promised me to help me get back to
The next day, Ethan went to work and the kids went to school, leaving just Giselle at home.Ethan already opened the mall for her and she had decided to check it out today.She was very bored staying alone at home and Tasha was not back yet. She entered the car Ethan had arranged for her and the same midde-aged driver was the one that drove her, it seems he was her exclusive driver."Uncle, take me to the newly bulit mall." Giselle requested politely."You don't have to call me Uncle Milady, my name is Leo." the man replied awkwardly and Giselle smiled.She would not disrespect an elder because he was her driver, she was not even used to others serving her. That was why she preferred doing things herself, she had even thought of getting a driver's license but did not, because she knew that the man was only surviving with the pay from the job.As the car drifted in the streets, Giselle looked at the scenery outside and enjoyed the fresh air and scent of flowers. Then, She suddenly sa
Ethan was very angry at the way Giselle had behaved earlier.He had went out of his way to take her out, just to cheer her up even when he was very busy but she just wasted all his efforts.He was furious but more disappointed, he knew something was bothering her so bad and he had guessed that it was about Athena. He was disappointed because she was keeping her worries from him, he wanted her to be dependent on him.He would do all the work and her own was just to tell him what was wrong but she did not, she just kept everything to herself.He then started to regret his decision of leaving her by herself , he did not know what was bothering her and leaving her alone was never an option."You are so foolish Ethan, you walked away when she needed you the most." he cursed at himself and instructed the driver to take a detour, back to their home.He quickly got down the moment they got home and rushed to Giselle's room.He would not mind if she yells at him or scolds him but he would not
"Why are you calling me?" Giselle asked with an edge to the tone of her voice. Athena laughed loudly and spoke up. "Ethan did not tell you right? You are just a replacement, a surrogate and you would pack your things because I am back to take what belongs to me." Giselle laughed humorlessly and replied to her jeer with another of her own. "You already betrayed his love and his trust when you decided to discard him and elope with another man, you do not have a say at all, your era is over. You can't just abandon him and then come back again expecting him to continue waiting for you, it does not work like that." Athena kept quiet for a while and then said, "It is just a fight and a misunderstanding between us husband and wife, you are the outsider in this issue and you will continue to be. You are not married to him but I got married to him, he did not agree to the divorce in the first place because he loves me a lot." Her words jabbed at Giselle's heart painfully and Giselle went
When Ethan came back that night, he met her in his room. She was smiling blissfully and it made him wonder what happened but he was okay, as long as she was happy. Giselle raised her head and when she saw Ethan, she stood up and went over to collect his coat for him and folded it. Ethan removed his tie and then his shirt and turned to her. "What is making you so happy?" he asked while holding her waist. "How was your day?" she asked instead of replying to him and he raised his eyebrows. "Hectic?" "Go and freshen up, I will reheat your dinner and serve you, we will talk after we've talked." "Are the kids asleep?" Ethan asked casually but he noticed how the smile on Giselle's face deepened at the mention of the kids and he started thinking. "Yes, they went to sleep after dinner." Giselle replied and walked out. When Ethan finished showering and went downstairs, Giselle had already served the dish, so he just sat tp eat and she watched him. "You've had dinner already?" he aske
