Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 51
After I dropped off Audrey at school—since she requested that she want to go again and the school head quickly agreed about Audrey shifting to face-to-face classes again—I didn't go straight to work. I went back to the house again, hoping Henrix had already come home... but I didn't see any trace of him inside. He told Aud that he was going home in the morning, and it's already 9 in the morning, he still isn't there. "Are you just leaving the house now?" Lucile greeted me. The only thing she used was a motorbike and it looked like she was tripped up to stroll here like we did. "You're late, huh?" "I'm the boss. I can come in any time I want-” "And needed." When the motorcycle she told me about the other day that Jessica gave her was parked on the side of the road, Lucile waved at me as if I had a fault with her. "Because of the messages I received from you yesterday—you hacked me with a text—do you know that my video call partner suddenly killed me?" "Yes, I just found out becau
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 52
When I landed at the gym where Audrey's practice game was starting, on the back of the bleachers, I put down her purse and the sandwiches I made for her. I took one more glance... and I saw a familiar face on the left side of the court—Sarah. Sarah is with Audrey at the tryout. The world is really getting smaller between the two of us. "Lorraine!" I whispered to Audrey's friend. She was just sitting in the bank, so I interrupted her. When she turned around, I motioned her to come closer to me... and said, "I have something to command you. Is it fine with you?" "Anything, aunty. As long as I can." "I'll just persuade her into something... and make sure not to tell her I'm the sender, huh?" Luckily I was able to get Loraine to agree. In a large wall where I could hide it, I waited for Audrey to have break time before leaving. I just want to make sure Loraine will do her job. Just maybe Sarah's face will become clear, since I saw her again, it has been so pale. At least by doing
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 53
Before I turned my back away from Henrix... I reminded him of one thing. "Make sure to fetch Audrey from her school." "Don't worry about me... I can handle myself. I’ll just stay there a bit quick and will go home. And of course, one more thing… rest assured I won't do something that I don't want others to do to me.” ***** "For sure... your darling is a bit scared." "What is there to be afraid of? Is the party a Halloween theme?” I confusedly asked. Because Lucile and I will go to the venue together but will enter separately. "I don't understand the need to be afraid." "Don't you know?" "What?" "Most of the men attending the Bachelor's party cheated on their partners!" she said to me sharply but in a whisper. "There are indeed sexy ladies who are guests there, and most of the attendees are men. Those women with big watermelons and fragrant pussy have a really big tendency to cheat and have a one-night stand." "Do you think I’m capable to cheat-" “Girl, in the times we live i

"I thought you were just for a moment?" I didn't expect that when I got home, I would find Henrix awake and sitting alone on the sofa with no light on. "You said you'll only be there for a while... but it took you morning to arrive home." "I left the venue at nine o'clock. I went straight to Lucile because she invited me to a movie marathon," was my excuse. Now that I'm on his shoes when telling lies to me, it's really hard to make excuses. That's why I'm really proud of people who never run out of excuses to their partner. "I hope you at least text me, so I was informed to not wait for you until midnight." "I didn't tell you to wait for me. I just reminded you to fetch Audrey, and after that... you can now take your rest. Did I fail to remind you?” While taking off my shoes, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable as I noticed his strange stares at me. "What?" "I'm just worried that when you come home... you’ll tell me suddenly… you loved him again." He left my mind full of quest
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 55
"Come on, Gwen! We have different tastes when it comes to men, okay? A young man who you think has just average looks may be a hot man for me! At least I have seen them with my own two eyes!” And my gay friend, at any moment, will explode here out of anger. But then, I let Rocco explode there for all I care. I still have an important business to attend to. I believe he could handle himself. Because if not, for sure he’ll regret everything after seeing the damage his anger can do just because of men. Gosh! "Dianne, have you received it?" [Yes, Ma'am. I'm on my way.] And I'm on my way to the person I want to surprise for today's video. ***** [Well, what can I do? I made a promise to your little girl that I will prepare and make her party grand tomorrow.] [But let me ask you this, Kris.] [Did something really happen to you guys? With Liam?] I expected that Lucile would really ask. Just by looking at each other last night, I know that she is already suspicious of my plans. Althoug

The next day, Imelda and I will settle our case according to the police. It seems that the witch still has a schedule, even overcame the businessmen who couldn't stay in their seats because the meetings and conferences were late. That's okay with me because Rocco is also in a hurry to send me back to Aether. "What the hell is going on here?" "Sis, have we not been in a call conversation before? I just said that earlier, didn't I?” When Rocco whispered, I was even more pissed off. "Okay, fine," he mouthed and stepped away from me. "How will you be successful if you always use your tricks, Zia? You're new here, are you acting on me right away?" “Then who's fvcking human can eat a frog? My family never fed me a frog. It’s awfully isgusting. It stinks. Fishy! And you're asking me to eat that fvcking animal now?!” I heard her shrill shouting at me. The nerve of this young lady, to be honest, is quite rude. Next time she cuts my patience short, I’ll make sure to cut her business wit

"Because of his craziness, I did not agree. I used Audrey as my card to stop him being delusional while suspecting he's Audrey's father-” "But he really is, isn't he?" Lucile rolled her eyes at me, acting like she's tired of repeating the same advice she spoke months ago. "You know I supported you hiding your daughter from Liam and my parents, Kris. Since then I have not opposed you to your wishes. I just have one request from you, so that Liam wouldn’t look for his child with you, don't let him see Audrey." "We both know that it will happen. The moment he meets your child, he will start to suspect you. That it will happen. Because when he saw that young girl, I knew that in just one meeting, he would notice a lot. Well, there's even two of you, right?" "So, you're saying it's my fault?" "It's really your fault, Kris. Even Henrix is very careful with Audrey that Liam doesn't allow Audrey to be seen by Liam .. 'cause he knows what will happen next." "If I knew in the first place

“He will come. Your daddy will come, okay?” I hid the sadness in my eyes with my smiling lips. "Go back there and join your friends to eat and enjoy." "Okay, mom! Love you!” After Audrey kissed my cheek, she ran to the table of her friends. As you would have guessed, she wasn't wearing such a heavy gown. Now that I get back to my business, I'm still contacting Henrix to ask if he has plans to go here... because I'm getting discouraged again. I have so many missed calls to him, but he still doesn't answer. Especially now that I know that he's with Maui, I'm still trying to figure out that he might want to catch up with Audrey's party. But the thing I forgot was that... it's my daughter's day and most especially, their day. It turns out that their anniversary coincides with Audrey's birthday. Today is also Henrix and Maui’s anniversary as a couple. I'm not liking the thoughts circulating in my head but... it has possibilities to happen. The reason why Dianne saw Henrix with Maui go

"I am supposedly calling you for an emergency family meeting about what I heard from Echo, son," my mother said to me after recovering from the shock Henrix and I brought to her."But I don't have anything else to worry about, eh! If this man is responsible for you and is willing to marry you, I don't have a problem."All thanks to the Lord, Henrix and I moved ahead of Echo. Although that bastard has already informed my mother that I am pregnant, good thing we have settled everything down to the venue and props just to make Henrix's outdoor proposal to me look realistic.Mama also arrived on time in front of the house that I built-not for Henrix and I, if not for myself-and she was able to witness our show."You can count on me, Tita Miriam. I'm not like other men who run away from their responsibility to women," I heard the reply of Hen next to me. I tightened my grip on his arm."So, when do you plan to get married?" asked my stepdad. "We're not rushing you to get married that's why

I think about the welfare of the child in my womb, and at the same time, I shall not ignore the fact that for the sake of the baby, I will suffer.So, I have come to a very complicated decision."I understand if you find it difficult to give in to me, Hen. But I have no choice," I pleaded.I secretly met Henrix in a bar near his house in the middle of the night."The weight of the two options I have now. I can't afford losing the other one out of my hand."I tried to gamble.

"A country we can trust if you wish to continue aborting the baby is in New Zealand," Doc Nerissa, an OB Gynecologist, premises. "Because in that country, they passed a bill wherein they treat abortion only a health issue not a crime. This is the safest route you can travel, Maui.”I didn't go home immediately after my round because I deliberately made Doc Nerissa here on the third floor of the hospital in his clinic. At this point, I think I really need some advice from the professionals.I'm afraid to make a decision on my own. As much as possible, I wanted to make a decision that I would not regret later."I've got to start packing my things, do you think, Doc?"I am still struggling to this day whether I will continue with my plan or not. So, I ended up heaving a sigh in front of her."Only if you're very sure about your plans. Are you sure about your plan, Maui?” She is asking me like she wants me to have a second thought."For most women, a baby is a blessing. Many of them still

This chapter intend to elaborate what happen to Maui after revealing her truth.---"How many times do I have to tell you that you can't just come here to my condo, Maui?! Have you forgotten the danger you might cause to me once people around here keep seeing us together?!”I just bowed my head and tightly held the strap of the shoulder bag I was carrying. Echo let me into her condo unit but we were only here behind the door. He said it's dangerous if he talks to me outside because he's afraid of the possibility I might be the cause of his image falling off the ground."You need to know something, that's why I'm here. It's not my intention to cause trouble, Echo." My voice is shaking.I was nervous to continue speaking because just from Echo's eyes, I could read that she couldn't accept what I had to say."Go straight to the point, Maui! Don't waste my time!”The nervousness I feel is increasing even more now that Echo's voice is raising me. He is desperate to get rid of me and I will
Vengeance of the Battered EPILOGUE
Gwen has already left me. And it took me years to forget her completely. I may have fallen for the same woman who has her looks too, but still there is something in Kris that makes me love her. Something that I didn't see in Gwen before - the fighting spirit that Kris has. "Exactly. Make sure you don't even think about what they will say. If they are not our family, their opinion doesn't count." I placed my hand on her head and kissed the top of her head. "I love you." The first 'I love you' I have told her... ever. "Until my last breath..." She looked up at me. "I will love you too." ***** LIAM After two years... "Here's your baby..." I handed to the mother the little baby that we had put in her diaper. "You're a mother of two now... Kris." She cried and took her baby from me. As a mother who is about to glimpse and tickle her child for the first time, I understand the story behind Kris's tears. She must be... really acting like this even before she gave birth to Audrey. "Tha

"Aether Entertainment is not complete without Miss Gwen–the one that served to be our mother. She honed our skills to make us shine and be talented, just by how you see us now. So, even just by the project we did for her we can show that with the things she is facing now, we wanted to show her she's not alone." That's a very sweet message I heard from Tanya. "And as we represent the other artists that's part of this project, we may show you the art of love." (Two voices, One song started to play) Along with the music video playing on the big screen, Tanya and Coreen sing along to the lyrics of one of the songs that have shaped our hearts. Right now, Kris is just staring at the huge screen while watching the music video... and it's absolutely pretty that Corrine's company makes use of some clips of Kris and me... which seem to be among the ones they took as they invade our privacy . While I was in the middle of enjoying the melody I was hearing, my heart suddenly dropped when I fel

"We're here to visit Miss Gwen. Where is her room, Doc-" I turned to face the woman who’s asking, and realized it was Tanya and Corrine. Both of them are wearing glasses. The only difference they had is Tanya is wearing a puff crisscross back dress in white color and she pairs her outfit with strap trendy flat sandals in beige color. While Corrine's outfit is always simple yet classy. She wears a solid cut out Mandarin collar dress and paired it with a black minimalist metal decor point toe slingback pumps. In other words, Tanya's outfit is how SHOPEE app users dress, while Corrine is for SHEIN's users. "I'm just reminding you that she doesn't remember or recognize anyone," I said to the two before they entered the room. And they retreated at the same time. "She has suffered a minor internal bleeding on her brain. As a complication, she lost her memory. But she has short-term memory loss." "There's still no definite time as to when she will regain her memory," I added. "So... sh
Vengeance of the Battered CHAPTER 93
I thought before I went back to the hospital, I would pass by Lucile's funeral first. I can't just not show myself there and exhibit my greatest sympathy because of her family's loss. Even though she committed many sins in Kris and I's life, I still have at least a percent of gratitude for her for offering a friendship to Kris... even if it's not true. "My condolences." I don't know the old lady I met, but I guess she's one of the family members of the Soriano's. So, I proceeded to the long coffin and placed the flower I bought on top of it. Now... as I was able to see the dead body of Lucile, confirming she was really dead, I feel a mixture of sadness and joy. Maybe she has run out of time to change, but then... she deserves it. To me that she is in arrears, it's really funny that the demon's minion has picked her up. However, I was also sad because she will not be able to continue the only right thing she has done in her entire life--to save the lives of the stray dogs and cats.

She was walking back and forth tensely. "My concern is that they will know the location of this place. What if... they take all my pets from here? I can't accept that I took care of them and kept them alive only to die at their hands!" Oh shit. Because Liam and I didn't say anything to Hen that he should bring the police when he comes here, eh. "You go through there," she pointed to the back side of us and there was a door there. "Take that road out here. There's a car parked there and... get in it. It's more of a hassle if you take your car in front. The police will be here at any time." "Come with us-" "Not anymore, Liam." Lucile gave us her weak smile. "As long as I live, I will not let the police set foot on my territory. Until my last breath, I will protect them." The dogs and cats here are noisy and playing happily, they are very lucky to have Lucile. That even if I wanted to try to convince Lucile to just run away, I knew I would only fail. Because right at this moment, the
