Ciara's pov"100,000 FOR ME! YES, WOOOOH! LET'S GAUR!!" He overly jumped in joy, shouting his heart out as we all awkwardly stared at him. Until Jennifer secretly approaches him and hits his head, shyly smiling at everyone as if she was apologizing using her eyes, as everyone was looking weirdly in Tyler's direction."Ouch! The fuck with you?!" Tyler's complaint, but as soon as Jennifer glares at him, he suddenly zips his mouth off, realizing what shameful he just did."Shut up, you're embarrassing! Can't you see that we're all serious here and you'll suddenly shout like a fucking autistic there?!" Jennifer gave her young brother a deadly glare."Haha, it's okay! Don't worry, it's all yours." Mrs. Cortel's utter made our eyes widen. Woah, for real?! That's a lot of money!"Yes! Told you! We deserve it!" Tyler pointed at his older sister, bragging, but Jennifer just rolled her eyes yet her face says it all how excited she is as soon as we all heard that we'll get it.Easy money!"How a
Ciara's pov"There you go! You looked so gorgeous, Ma'am Ciara!" Tita Jolei said excitedly as they finalized my makeup and hairstyle. They didn't even take so long to finish everything."And one more thing, your shoes!" Tita Angeli said and took the box of sandals from the top of the table where I didn't notice that it was placed there. He excitedly opened it and carefully took it out of the box. My eyes twinkle in amusement when I see it.It's so beautiful."Pretty, right? This will surely perfectly suit you," he said and gently put the white heels on my feet. After he put it in, Tita Jolei guided me to stand up for them to see my wholeness of me."How do I look?" I shyly asked as they were too stunned to stare at me as if they were adoring my looks. I held my nape in shame when they dramatically covered their mouths, tearing up, looking so proud. They held each other's hands and screamed in joy."Look how perfect she is!""I know right?!"I bit my lower lip to resist smiling."Go an
TW: fake death (always put to your mind that this is pure fiction)Ciara's pov"T-Tyron.."I could feel my tears constantly flowing from my eyes. But instead of answering me, he just smiled at me. A smile that makes my knees weaken, even more, the smile that I thought I would never see in my life or even once in my life ever again, will unexpectedly be seen by my two eyes exactly on this day. It was as if my heart was pounding as he stepped closer to me.Tyron..."Can I take the hand of your daughter, sir?" He politely asked my daddy, while I still couldn't take my eyes off him."Here, she's all yours now. Take care of her, I'm trusting her to you, don't fail me," dad gave my hand to him."Thank you, sir." He smiled and gently accepted my hand. And the moment he held my hand and I felt his warm skin on me, that's when reality hit me.H-he's alive."Y-you're dead.. h-how—" I cried to him, but he cut me off."Shh." I was even surprised when he took my right hand and applied it to his f

And now, we're totally complete. I can't believe it.I immediately remembered what Jennifer told me before we entered the church.'Shut up! And just keep your mouth shut.'Yeah. Now I understand why she said shock instead of shut. Well yes, I was really shocked, because what happened was unbelievable and I got almost out of breath, so close to passing out the moment I saw the person I didn't expect.Until now, I still can't believe how I'm crying every day because of him, regretting the chance to be with him again, knowing that he's dead. But when everything seems to be fine, because finally, I'm with my biological parents already, I didn't expect him to suddenly appear in front of me as my groom, because all I thought was that, it was really Raiza and Tyron who would get married, but it tur

It was as if I would disappear when he let go of me.We were about to get back in the car when we met Tyler."Dude!" He greeted Tyron and was supposed to kiss him on the cheek when I kicked him on his ass. This bastard..."Ah! That hurts?!" He complained and glared at me. I heard Tyron chuckle.Stupid, why would he kiss my husband, he already has his Raiza. I might bury him alive by chance"What are you doing here monkey notch?" I asked him, face frowning even more."Handsome monkey," You also admitted that you were a monkey."Btw, you're already here. Tonight, at the bar, celebration!" He said, smiling, excitedly."Celebration for what?" "My love is about to give birth! Damn! I can't wait to be a handsome father
A few days have passed and my head is always heating up, my blood keeps on boiling. I don't know why, but I get annoyed every time I smell Tyron's perfume.But now I couldn't understand myself, I was holding the knife while staring at him. I'm enjoying seeing him being scared of me."Can you just tell me what you want? Stop pointing it at me," he complained, which made my blood heat up even more because I just heard his voice."Are you complaining?""N-no, I was just telling you to put it down, wife, and tell me what you want me to buy..." he answered calmly, but I just glared at him."Buy me a mango," I said when I suddenly felt myself craving sourness."Is that all?""But I want the boneless one, but something raw, but I want it sweet," I explained the taste that my stomach wanted now. After I said that, his two eyebrows almost furrowed."What?! Is that even existing? Raw mango without seeds, then you want it sweet? Sweet but raw? Are you kidding me?" My eyebrows rose because he kee
PROLOGUE"Tyron, please... let me go. I'm begging you, please." I made an attempt to free myself from his grasp, but he was too strong and not even listening to my dramatic plea. I can sense his anger and it's making me weak and my knees tremble. His hold on my wrist was so tight, that I couldn't stop myself but shred from tears. He just continued dragging me through the dark cage where he often took me and locked me down whenever he didn't like what I was doing."T-Tyron, it hurts.. please." My heart is clenching, I just felt like crying and begging him to free me, but it was too impossible for him to listen to me. He's really angry and I don't know what I did this time."Would you shut the hell up?! You don't have any idea that you ruined everything, right? You ruined my life, Ciara Hilvano. You ruined everything! And now you're hoping that I'll forgive you?! Hell no! I will make you suffer for everything that you did. As long as you live under my roof and you're in my hands, you wi
Chapter 1 | MemoryI darted my attention to the ceiling of my room while resting in my bed. I have just woken up but I can already feel the coldness of my surroundings. It is just so frustrating and makes me feel so sick. Why did I even end up in this situation? Is it really my fault that I become selfish just for once in my lifetime?I just shake my head when I think again of the past. If I didn't demand from the things I want back then, won't my life end up a mess like this? "Ciara!" I was instantly able to bounce back from bed when I heard my husband's loud exclamation from the first floor of our house. I hurried out of my room and ran down from the stairs. As I finally got down, I saw him dressed and seemed ready to go somewhere, his eyebrows were knitted which made him look so grumpy. Where will he go again this time? Didn't he just leave yesterday? He's leaving so often, and I don't know where he goes. But still, I have a right to know, right? I'm still his wife. I have a rig

News Reporter"Mrs. Cortel, may I ask what's the name of your missing child?" The reporter asked the not-so-old woman."She's Ciara Cortel. Please, baby. If you can see this, and you're hearing this. Wherever you are, please come back to us. Come back to mommy, baby. Please. It's me... your mom. Come back now, please? I need you."'How many years has her child been missing?""Her child must have been very lucky when she got found.""That's true! Based on what I heard, she was one of the richest people in Japan.""Currently, can you show us a picture of your child, in case you have any news on its current appearance?" The reporter asked again and the woman immediately nodded."Here's the latest picture of her, this was given by someone from the Philippines and for now she's 18. Please, if someone knows where she is, please report immediately.""She's beautiful just like her!""Yes! They're exactly the same if you keep them together.""If anyone sees her, I will give a reward worth 100,
Ciara's pov"My gosh Ara! Until now, I still can't believe that Altair was the one who always took you to the hospital back then. Thanks to him, because you managed to survive!" She laughed as she unbelievably said this as soon as we got back home to pack our clothes.I immediately went straight to my room, with Jennifer, while Tyler turned to his room.We need to pack since it's now where we really going to Japan. It's so sudden, right? I didn't expect this to happen so early. I mean, yes, I want to see them now. I'm so excited to know them, but I can't help but get nervous because we're getting closer to finally meeting my parents, the true ones. Raiza will just be waiting for us at the airport."Why is he doing that?" I asked Jennifer in confusion."Aren't you listening, didn't Altair say that it was Shaira wants? He said he used to work under Shaira's hands. He was always ordered to watch over you, which is the reason why you keep on surviving, though you're nearly in death," she
It's been a couple of minutes since we were traveling to Lulu's Restaurant since we were supposed to meet Raiza and Altair as they called Jennifer earlier. I can't wait to know the information they gather. I want to see my parents already. I want to know who they are."Jennifer, Ciara, here!" I heard Raiza shout who was waving in our direction as soon as we entered the restaurant, so we went to where they were."Who's with you?" Raiza whispered as I sat beside her. He was referring to Tyler."He's Tyler Jeon, Jennifer's younger brother." I introduced myself to her."Hi, nice to meet you." Raiza lends her hand to Tyler who warmly accepts to shake it."I'm Altair Cabral." Cupid introduces as well."Come on, take a seat!""Here's your order, Ma'am/Sir." We looked at the man as he unloaded the food on our table."You already ordered?" Jen asked, my eyes narrow. She can literally see it now, yet she's still asking."Yeah, while we're waiting for you," Raiza replied and smiled.I looked at
