TYLER POV 30After I cooked Veronica's favorite food, I immediately approached Aunt Dasha while she was talking to Ana. I was honestly not comfortable with her talking to Ana.When I approached them, they looked at me with a smile.“Aunt,” I uttered.“Yes,Tyler?”she asked.“Can I ask you a favor?”I asked her."Sure,what is that?"she asked calmly."I cooked Veronica's favorite beefsteak. Maybe you can give it to her when she gets home," I pleaded with a smile."Sure,actually I can also deliver it to her so she can taste it right away,"she replied with a smile.I noticed a change in Ana's mood. She lost her sweet smiles then.But that didn't matter to me anymore, it was more important for Veronica to taste my food i cooked for her."Don't say I am the one who cooked,Aunt," I said."I'll tell her when she's exhausted, hehe," she joked."Uhmm, are you done ?," Ana asked me with a smile."Ahm,yes I'll just get dressed for a while,"I replied.Honestly I really don't want to go with Ana but I
TYLER POV 31"Wait, I know that man!" I said angrily when I saw John in the distance talking to a woman.I couldn't stop myself and punched him. I hit him in the face and he grabbed his cheek.He was shocked when he saw me and I still fought with him. I don't care if he is muscular compared to me but he blocked my punch. I haven't forgotten what he did and I have a strong feeling that he is really the one who dumped Veronica and me.My life was ruined because of him.Everything wouldn't be like this but because of him. "What's your problem?!,"he asked emphatically."Don't say you forgot what you did to us,John. You're the reason we broke up! You're the reason I lost everything!You idiot !" I shouted at him.Craig tapped me on the shoulder to calm me down. John immediately left the bar and I immediately followed him."Fight me! Fight me now!" I shouted.He stopped walking and looked at me seriously."I didn't mean that. Steven followed us to Veronica's place and he forced me to admit ever
VERONICA POV 31 It's late at night but I still can't sleep. I'm in my son's room now and I just want to watch my son sleep.While Beth is sound asleep because maybe she's tired of watching my son all day. I noticed my son didn't have any milk so I thought of going downstairs. I immediately left the room and went downstairs.And I was surprised to see Tyler near the door. He smiled at me but was obviously drunk because he was walking slowly. Maybe the woman named Ana was with him. I ignored him and I went straight to the kitchen to make milk for my son.But I stopped when I heard his voice behind me."What should I do for you to forgive me ?," he asked me emotionally."Please forgive me,Veronica.I have regretted everything a long time ago. "Please just forgive me," he begged.I sighed at what was said and had the courage to face him.I don't want to be weak at this time. I want to show him that I'm not like before. I will never let myself be fooled again.“Do you think it’s that easy t
VERONICA POV 32"Actually I'm here because I want to get to know you better Mrs. Jackson and soon to be Mrs. Hamilton,"he said confidently.I gasped at what he said.I don't think I liked what this man said. I couldn't directly answer what he said to me."If you will just give me a chance I can invest billions in your company," he told me with a smile.The men are really the same.They used their money to get what they want.I calmed myself down but I was shocked when he held my hand but I immediately avoided it."Uhmm, why don't we just talk about the benefits you can get from the company.And that is if you are really interested in investing in our company,Mr.Hamilton" I told him with a smile."I like you, I like your personality, Mrs. Jackson. It challenges me a lot. I thought I could get you with my money right away," he replied with a smile.“I am rich and I’ve learned,Mr’.Hamilton” I smirked."Ohhh, I'm more intrigued to know you more,"he said with a smile."So are you really inter
VERONICA POV 33"It's good that Ana came. She's taking care of Tyler now,"mom added.My blood really heated up from what I heard from her."What ?!" I asked in disbelief.“Ohh wait! Why do you react like that?”she asked me."No..no," I stammered.I could clearly see in my mother's eyes that she was teasing me and I just sighed. "You won't be affected like that if you don't really love him anymore,"mom said with a smile."Mom,I'm not affected, okay?" I calmly replied to her."Isn't it really? Why did you react like that when I said that Ana was the one taking care of him?," my mother asked me."I was just surprised and that's it!"I replied. "Hmmm," my mother still doesn't believe me.After a while she invited me to eat downstairs so we went out of the room.I glanced at Tyler's room but it was still closed. What were those two doing? It was impossible for her to just take care of Tyler.I know they are doing something.My mother noticed my quietness so she immediately asked me if I wa
TYLER POV 32Around 10am I woke up to the sound of my phone.I saw Ana kept calling me but my body hurt so I just ignored it.I closed my eyes again because I had a bad headache and I felt really hot.I think I drank too much last night. I remember the conversation I had with Veronica and realized why I was still forcing myself on her. Why didn't I just let her go? Maybe Veirn will look for me when he grows up. I'm tired of understanding her and I've done everything to make her forgive me. I did my part but I think it's not enough. Maybe she just needs time or space, not my sorry. I need it for myself.I miss the old me, the old Tyler who had no interest and time in any women not until Veronica came.I was just covered with a blanket at those times. Later there was a sudden knock on my bedroom door."Who is that? Is that you,Lydia?" I asked."I feel bad so I can't open the door," I added.He slowly pushed open the bedroom door and Lydia popped up in front of me. "Sir, Maam Ana is lookin
TYLER POV 33She tore the envelope in front of me and my blood warmed at what she did. I worked hard on it and then she just tore it? Fuck!I immediately stood up and slapped her on my desk and confronted her with what she had done.“What the heck are you doing,Veronica ?!” I asked her angrily."It's just trash. It doesn't pass my taste, can I do anything?!,"she said.“You!” I said emphatically while pointing at him.“Do you know I worked hard to finish that? Do you know that even though you still feel bad, I came in just to finish my work. And all you did was destroy it! ”I scolded her. "Why? Were you ordered to get drunk? I thought you would do everything for the company but why did you put getting drunk before your job?! Don't act like you're more powerful than me.Remember i am the CEO of the company and I can do what I want. I don't miss what you did, ”she said sarcastically.I almost exploded in anger at those times. But I still chose to hold back because whatever I do she is the
VERONICA POV 34 As I drove home I couldn't help but think of what I had done lately.Am I overdoing it or does he just deserve it?“I think he deserves it!” I said to myself.I just gasped as I thought about that. I really meant to do that because his approach earlier was so rude right in front of Mr. Hamilton.I was very embarrassed at what he did in front of us.A few moments later I arrived at the mansion. I entered and saw Craig and Lydia talking. They looked at me and greeted me with a smile.I smiled at them too and walked up the stairs to my room. But I suddenly stopped when I heard their conversation."Yes,he even bought flowers for Maam Ana," Craig told Lydia.“Really? Sir Tyler was so sweet, maybe it’s time for him to find someone new. I don’t think they really have any hope for maam Veronica ”Lydia replied with a smile."He deserves to be happy. Sir Tyler is kind so they're like maam Ana" Craig said with a smile."Yes you are right.Anyway,Will you pick him up later?" Lydia as
AUTHOR'S POVShe was very happy to see Tyler again. But Tyler felt the opposite at that time. He thought it was too late to complete his family because he thought Veronica and her ex boyfriend,John had gotten back together.He even threw the flower he brought outside out of frustration before entering inside."Tyler?" John uttered in disbelief."Daddy!!" the boy quickly ran towards him."It's been a month since you left and came back to Canada. Why are you here? Is it another business trip?" Veronica asked, stuttering."Uhmm,Yeah.I just passed by because I just thought of visiting Veirn.I missed him too much,"he lied.John's phone suddenly rang because his girlfriend was calling.He immediately said goodbye to them and Tyler was surprised when he heard that John had a girlfriend. They looked at each other for a while and John smiled at him before leaving the mansion. He couldn't explain the joy he felt when his thoughts were probably wrong. He approached Veronica while they looked at ea
VERONICA POV 54It's been a week since Tyler left the mansion. I have to admit that I missed him and I felt sad when he left. Veirn is also always looking for him and I just say that his dad is at work.Veirn became lethargic while waiting for his father and I felt sorry for my son. There are times when I just want to call John so he can visit Veirn even though we're broke up. But I'm a coward because I don't want him to think I'm chasing him.I'm not the kind of woman who will beg for him to stay with me. I don't want to force him to come back because I'm okay with not having a boyfriend or a husband.I'm just really worried about my son because I don't want to see him lethargic and sad because he's not even his two daddies visiting.At least one of them."Why are you sad, son?" I asked softly. "I feel like I'm alone, Mom. I miss my daddy so much," he answered sadly. "Which daddy do you miss?" I asked. "Daddy Tyler," his pouty face answered me. I held my breath at what he said. I know i
TYLER POV 76I couldn't stop myself and I punched the man.Ana came between the two of us to stop us. The man fell to the floor and I attacked again but we both stopped when we heard the loud voice of Mr. Gonzales behind us."What's going on here?!"he asked angrily."Your daughter cheated on me! My two eyes could clearly see them kissing," I said angrily."Is what he said true, Ana?!" Mr. Gonzales asked firmly and frowned.She couldn't answer right away and she only responded by crying at those times. so I'm annoyed by what she's showing. Why does it seem like she's the victim here?"Tell us the truth, Ana. Tell me!" I told her angrily."I'll say it, Bro. Yes, Ana and I have a relationship and we love each other," the man admitted."I'm really sorry,"she apologized , crying."What nonsense is this, Ana?! Why were you able to betray your husband?!"Me.Gonzales asked firmly."I'm really sorry, Dad. But I think you and Tyler deserve to know the truth,"she said firmly."What do you mean, An
TYLER POV 75 "Be careful in Canada,"she said with a smile.The sadness in her eyes was obvious and I smiled at what she said. I approached her and gently held her shoulder."Thank you so much for taking care of me, Nica. Despite all my sins against you, I know I don't deserve it, but you still chose to take care of me," I smiled at her."Despite your sins, I still can't take away what you did to help my mother. You are the reason why I spent more time with my mother. You are the reason why I extended her life. And if we had not met and you didn't marry me, I won't even know my real father,"she said seriously and smiled at me."I want you to know that despite the pain you caused. I never regretted meeting and loving you,"she added.Those moments between us were emotional. I couldn't stop myself from hugging her tightly. I was so grateful for everything she did for me. She was the first woman I ever liked and loved so much. And I didn't either regretted that.We hugged for a while and s
TYLER POV 74"Where is daddy John, mommy?" Veirn asked.I swallowed my saliva and I was really hurt by what I heard from my son. It hurts so much that John is probably the father he recognizes. I looked at Veronica and she smiled at me sparingly."Son, go to sister Beth first,"she said gently to the child and Veirn run away from us."He was looking for a father then. He always asked me where his daddy was until John came. I had no choice but to introduce him as the father of our son," he explained."I understand.I know i have shortcomings in our being a father so it's okay," I replied, trying to hold back my tears.I smiled while looking at his very cute and handsome face. I saw myself in him when I was young. He got the shape of my face, eyes and nose except for his hair and lips. "Are you really okay?"she asked worriedly. I know that she knows that I was hurt by what I heard from Veirn himself. It is very painful for a father whose son has another recognized father. But I accept th
TYLER POV 73I saw John slap her in the face so I immediately went in to punch him. I threw a punch at him and he was very surprised to see me. We both fought and I didn't let him win even though he was taller than me. My anger was more dominant at that time.But Veronica shouted at me and pushed me away from John. I was so hurt when I saw her hug the man in front of me. John was bloody because of my punch.Even though he is taller than me, I am better at fighting."Stop it!"she shouted."Why are you defending that man? He's hurting you, Veronica!" I said angrily. "You don't care about that! John is my boyfriend so it's normal for us to fight. Can you please stop?!"she said angrily.I was very disappointed that she defended her stupid boyfriend. I also didn't think that John was her boyfriend."If only you would replace me. You should have done it with a sensible man, not an idiot!" I said emphatically."Your face is too thick to dictate what I want. Maybe you forget that you were the
TYLER POV 72She didn't accept my hand and Mr.Chua noticed that. He smiled at he only talked to Mr. Chua even though Mr. Chua insisted on including me in their conversation."Let's talk there, Mr. Chua,"she said with a smile."Okay sure,"Mr.Chua replied, smiling at her."Uhmm, can it be just the two of us talking first, Mr. Chua?"she said gently.Mr. Chua looked at me and I nodded to him.I couldn't do anything but let them talk in the distance.I took a deep breath to calm myself down.I admitted that I was so happy to see Veronica but how can I talk to her?I want to approach her and talk to her so I can apologize for everything I've done. I believe that this is the right time to tell her the truth because I'm going back to Canada next week.And my life is back to normal with Ana and her shameless father.It was also a few moments before the two of them ended their conversation.Mr. Chua approached and invited me home.But I begged that maybe I could stay for a while talk to Veronica."I'm
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
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
