TYLER POV 67I feel a mixture of fear and nervousness when I see my son's body shaking. I almost go crazy from worrying about him so much. I know that I have sinned a lot against my family, especially against God, so I should be punished, not Veirn. Is this the payment for the sins I have committed against my family?I immediately called the pilot to pick us up. But I was irritated by Veronica's nagging so I couldn't help but raise my voice. I didn't mean to because of the frustration I was feeling."Where is the pilot?!"she asked impatiently. "Can we just wait!" I said irritatedly."Wait, why do you seem mad?!"she asked with a frown."Do you know what our son's condition is?! she asked him firmly."I know but we can't do anything but wait," I answered firmly.I am very angry with myself because I feel that God is punishing me for the sins I committed against my husband. I don't know how long I can hide the truth from Veronica. I am very afraid of losing her in my life.A few moments
TYLER POV 68"Mr. Jackson,how are you?"said the voice behind me.I know that voice very well and I can't be wrong. He came to me and looked at me with a smile.My eyes widened when I saw Mr. Gonzales smoking in front of me. If he stares, it's like he wants to eat me alive.My whole body trembled with fear and dread because I knew the reason why. But what I couldn't believe was that despite the kindness he showed me, he was actually a demon.He punched me and my lip bled.It hurt so much but I couldn't do anything. I couldn't move because the rope was tightly tied to my chair."You have no shame! You're stupid!"he shouted in front of me while tightly holding my collar.I can't be angry because everything is really my fault. What father would want to hurt his child?I didn't do anything but let him beat me. His eyes show the anger he feels towards me. I apologized to him but he didn't listen to me."Ana is my only child.I will not let you trample her"he said firmly. "Do you know how misera
TYLER POV 69"Daddy said you divorced Veronica because you were going to marry me. Is that true?"she asked with a smile.There is a trace of happiness on her face while looking at me. Her eyes are sparkling as we hold and staring at each other.But I just nod and smile at her sparingly. I saw disappointment on her face at my response. It is obvious that I didn't like what she said."Is Daddy the only one who likes this?"she asked me.I took a deep breath and forced myself to pretend that I also wanted to marry her. The threat of Mr.Gonzales replayed over and over in my mind.I didn't want to make a mistake and harm my family."No. I also want it because I realized that you are the one I love," I lied.She was obviously surprised by what I said and almost cried with joy.She smiled sweetly and hugged me tightly. I know I made her hope that everything I said was true but I have no choice."I didn't think I would hear that from you. It's a good thing I didn't give up on you because I never l
TYLER POV 70"I heard that Ma'am Veronica will sell her shares in the company. They plan to live there in Italy, Sir,"Craig said.I was really depressed and hurt by what I heard from him. It was too heavy in my feelings while thinking if my family would go away from me forever. But there was nothing I could do to stop her."That's good," I tried to be okay."Are you okay, Sir?"he asked."Of course.That's better for her to be safe. I'm more comfortable when they stay away," I answered.Craig was surprised by what I said, so I told him about Mr.Gonzales' threat.He was very surprised by what I heard from my mouth. I don't have anyone to tell my problems and secrets to but only him.I trust him so I only tell him everything.He promised that no one else would know. But the worry in his voice was obvious when he found out what Mr.Gonzales did to me."Uhmm,let's talk later,Sir. Ma'am Veronica is here calling me,"he said nervously before hanging up the phone.I took a breath and sat down on t
VERONICA POV 51It's been a year since we moved here to Italy. Our life has been smooth and quiet. I also built a business and I grew it for a year and became part of a big cooperation."Ma'am, please sign this for endorsement," my secretary said with a smile."Okay," I answered and immediately signed.After I signed the contract needed for endorsement, my secretary said goodbye. I was left sitting in my office chair and leaning my head on the couch. I felt a little heavy and tired because of a lot of work. I just delivered food because I was lazy and I ate outside.Suddenly the door opened and Mitch appeared in front of me. Mitch has been my best friend since we lived in Italy. I remember Mildred because of her kindness. She is also one of the endorsers of my products because of her beauty.I don't need to hire an artist to sell because he is good at selling to consumers."Hi Bestie! How was your day? You seem tired,"she said."You said it!" I just shook my head."I told you that you
VERONICA POV 52"John?!" I uttered,confusedly.I couldn't believe seeing him in front of me. He smiled at me and greeted me. My mind was confused why he suddenly appeared in front of me. But before I could ask him, I listened to what the doctor said about my mother's condition."She needs to undergo Chemotherapy, '' Ms. Smith ''the Doctor said."Isn't that risky? Can I be sure that Mom will really recover?" I asked."Unfortunately I can't give you an assurance but I will do my best to make it successful,Ms.Smith"the doctor answered with a smile."Ahm, If that's the only way for mom to get better. I'm ready to gamble a second time, Doc" I said seriously.The Doctor smiled sparingly and said goodbye.When he left the room, John and I were left with Mom who was still sleeping. We looked at each other and I immediately asked him how he had been here.It's been a long time since we haven't seen each other."Your secretary said you can't go to the meeting because of what happened to your mom.
VERONICA POV 53"Your mom!.." Mitch said to me in a panic. "What happened to mom?!" I was confused.Mitch immediately pulled me out of the bathroom and ran to mom's room.When we opened the door, I saw the nurses and doctors trying to revive my mother. I was shocked and my whole body trembled. I couldn't bear to see my mother struggling for life. Tears continued to fall from my eyes.I couldn't bear to see her dying so I left the room and went back to walking. I kept praying that when I came back in, mom would be okay. I sat down on the chair and buried my face in my hands. I cried while praying to God not to take my mom from me."My God, I can't lose my mother yet. I'm begging you," I cried.It was quiet around me for a while until a cold wind touched my skin.My hairs suddenly stood up and that's when my hunch was formed. My feelings were so heavy that I could hardly stand from where I was sitting. The doctor came out and approached me. I took a deep breath to prepare myself to hear
TYLER POV 71I was very depressed when I found out about Ana's son's condition. We went back and forth for a month to monitor him because of his condition. I feel so sorry for her because she cries every night and blames herself for our son's condition.Our son has Hypoglycemia and he really needs treatment."Don't blame yourself, Ana. You are not to blame for what happened to Joshua. The doctor said he just had an infection but they are doing everything to make sure Joshua will be okay," I said calmly to Ana."Thank you for always being there for me and Baby, Hon,"she thanked me emotionally.I held my breath and hugged her tightly. I caressed her back to ease her mood. I know that she is not allowed to get stressed because it's only been a month since she gave birth.As the months passed, Ana suddenly changed and she became irritable watching over Joshua. I had no choice but to hire a babysitter to watch over Joshua.I couldn't help but compare her to Veronica because they are really
