Cianna's POV:

"I'm sorry, it was me who kissed Cianna, please don't be mad at her." I heard Rod said that to Rum. After Rum found us kissing I left immediately. When I decided to go back I found them talking.

"Just shut up and leave!" Rum shouted at him. Rod didn't speak anymore, he left immediately as Rum had said.

When Rod left I approached Rum. I want to ask him why he is here and what he needs.

"Why are you here?" I asked him calmly. He didn't answer right away, he just looked me in the eyes.

"I'm sorry for whatever you came up with." I told him.

"Cianna, admit it, do you still love that man?" he asked me angrily.

"It's none of your business, Rum! What if I even love him? Does it matter to you?" I asked him sarcastically. It seems that his interference in my life is wrong.

"It is, Cianna! I'm your doctor and I am just protecting you! I don't want to stress you out because that will not good in your health!" He shouted angrily at me.

"After all, my illness is getting worse, why don

I took another deep breath before I nodded at him."Cianna, my dear daughter!" Mom immediately greeted me with her tight hug."It's a pity you didn't catch up with your Dad." Mom said frowning. Dr. Rumzell and I looked at each other. Maybe it's not the right time to tell them my current situation."Mom, it's Dr. Rumzell. He's the one who came here before." I introduced Dr. Rumzell to my mom."Yes, I remembered him. How are you?" Mom asked him."I'm fine, thank you." Dr. Rumzell replied."Let's come inside, I'll make some tea." She invited me and Dr. Rumzell inside.When we got inside and already in the living room, I asked Mom where is Dad."Mom, where is Dad?""He's on a business trip, it's out of the country, maybe he'll be gone for a few weeks."

There aren't as many people in this area.The scenery here is beautiful, the place is full of various kinds of plants and there are beautiful flowers.The air is also fresh here, the lawn is also green. Perfect place for sightseeing, maybe this is a sightseeing for tourists, I guess.When I saw Thalia I walked closer to her. But my eyes widened at what she opened up to me.Slap!"Cianna, how dare you!"My eyes widened after Thalia slapped me. What is this woman's problem again?"What's that slap of yours for, Thalia?" I asked her angrily. I just can't accept that she slapped me like that."You're such a liar!" She shouted at me again. When she was ready to slap me for the second time, I immediately averted my face."What's the matter with you? Is it still about Rodleigh? God, Thalia! Rod is all yours!" I yell at her in

She's crying too bad."Mom, I already told you my reasons." I said softly. I never thought that what I said would affect my mother so badly. She blames herself, because she said that she hasn't been a good mother to me and she hasn't done her motherhood properly."I'm sorry. I thought I could do it." I added before I hugged my Mom tightly."Promise, I won't do it again." I told her. Suddenly she stopped sobbing then she looked at me."You have to! And I will never leave you alone again, from now on, I'll just be here next to you!" Mom said childishly as she continues from crying."Yes. Not anymore." I said then I hugged her again so that she would stop sobbing completely."Cianna, can I talk to you?" Mom let go of my hug, we also turned to Papa at the same time. His face was serious and there

Because of the comfort I feel, I close my eyes."You're just here." I was stunned when I felt Rod's two arms twisted around my waist. He hugs me now from behind me. I can also feel his lips touching my hair. He smells and kisses my hair causing me to close my eyes again."Tell me, what do you feel right now?" He asked me a gentle question. He still couldn't stop sniffing the smell of my hair."I feel relieved and secured." I answered his question. I heard comfort from him.To be honest, ever since my whole family found out about my illness everything seems to have been easy for me.

I asked her one question after another as I held her hand.We are here now at the hospital. I myself decided that she should just stay in the hospital so that in case there is an emergency, we can take care of her immediately."Nothing." Her response was weak.

I first checked to see if Owwsic had an update on his new story, but when I saw nothing else I was annoyed and threw away my phone and went downstairs. I hated Franz, but I didn't want to sleep without eating. When I came down, I found him busy preparing food on the table. "You know how to cook." I commented coldly as I looked at the food he served on the table. "There's nothing I can't do." he bragged. "I guess the arrogance was over. You're lifting your own chair. Nice." I said sarcastically before he turned away. "Where are you going?" he asked. But I ignored him. He's at fault for me, maybe he forgot? "Wife, I'm asking you." he said sternly. I almost smiled after he called me 'wife' but no, I'm still angry. I continued looking for instant noodles in the food container cabinet. When I saw the cup noodles I smiled as I am try

"You know what Dos? You're bothering me. Look, I'm playing! Why don't you sit beside Tres who is just quiet?" annoyed, Quattro said to Dos. "Look! I'm already dead!

I almost asked Uno. "There's an opponent in the house, I made sure of her safety first." He said without emotion. I smiled after hearing his reasoning. Everyone seems to agree with the plan.

Just the other day we came here to the Carters mansion in Canada. Franz says this Mansion in Canada is owned by his Grandfather on his father side. I feel like I'm just in a dream. So there’s no time I don’t pat my cheek to confirm if these things are really happening in my life. I mean, this, today. It never crossed my mind that at the age of twenty-three I would get pregnant and get married. Yes, my dream is to get married but I hope not now. If only I could follow in the footsteps of my Mom Cianna, to become a famous international model. But I feel vague when that thing happens. Maybe, this is really destined and expected to happen, so I have to accept that from this day I am married. I stared at Franz intently after he took my hand to say his vows.

"I've heard everything, I'm so sorry to hear what happened to you. If only I know that Franz's going to betrayed you, I shouldn't have let him gets you." Ashton said. I just shrugged at the two then hugged them tightly. About my pregnancy, my twin doesn't know about it yet. "It's all right. I'm very much fine." I told them. Lessandra and Ashton just looked at each other, they look like they're not convinced to what I said. Fine. "Hi, baby Hope!" I greeted my niece. She just look straight to me. Her eyes were so beautiful and her face was peaceful. I wish I was still a child like Hope, no problem, no heartache, and peaceful. "Okay, let's go? I know you're tired and you need rest." Lessandra said while smiling."Yeah. Thanks." I said and got into the car. While we were on the way, I was just looking outside. I

    Lessanna's POV:"Lessanna!" Franz called me when he saw me at the restaurant with my new Boss. I did not look at him, instead I accelerated my walk so that he could not reach me."Lessanna, wait!" When he finally chased me, he pulled me closer to him, causing my heart to beat faster."What is your problem?" I asked him annoyed."What's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly leave the hospital yesterday?" He asked me angrily. I laughed at him because of his question."Why, what do you want me to do? Stay there even if your Dad kicks me out? Are you kidding me?" I said full of sarcasm."But we have a deal, right? Haven't we already talked about it? Besides, you said you didn't care what Dad said, did you?" he said. Yes, I said those words but I didn't expect it that it was that painful to hear."But I'm hurt!" my defense of myself."I'm just human too, Franz! How about you, when you're hurt, you're still going to stay? Aren't you?" I shouted angrily at him."Of course, I will stay! Especi

    Lessanna's POV:"Good morning!" Franz greeted me warmly when I came out of my room. "Good morning." I greeted him back. It's embarrassing if I'm going to be cursed, isn't it? I'm here at their house so I have to be kind. "Are you nervous?" he asked me so the left side of my eyebrow was raised. "Why would I be nervous?" I raised my eyebrows at him. "I'm just asking because you'll be meeting my father now, right?" he said. I just rolled my eyes. "There's nothing to be nervous about, I don't care what your Dad thinks of me. I don't love you." I said calmly before I turned my back on him. I saw the sudden change in his aura. Maybe he got offended to what I said. Even though I knew he was offended I didn’t apologize. I was right. I don't care if her Dad accepts me or not. After Franz and I had talked earlier, he never spoke again. I can feel that he's really upset to what happened earlier, but it's not my fault. It's his fault for being offended. Now we are currently walking into h

We just arrived in Los Angeles today and he took me right away to his office here and introduced me to his employees as his wife. "Franz, what's that?" I asked Franz angrily when we got home to his mansion. He first took off his coat then he just threw it on the headboard of his bed. Messy! "What?" He asked. He is now sitting on the bed and taking off his socks. "Why so fast? And who told you you could kiss me? It was my first kiss!" I said angrily. He was stunned at what he was doing then he looked into my eyes. I was even more annoyed when he suddenly grinned, a silly grin. "I told you, I'm a quick-witted person, Lessanna. What's the matter now? You don't want that, your husband is the most handsome man in the country? Aren't you supposed to be grateful for that? About the kiss, I ' m glad that I'm your first kiss.

He just look at me and didn't bother to answer my question. "He's nervous." Franz whispered to me. I just nodded. I also remember that Ashton didn't really talk when he was nervous. So I kept quiet and waited for Lessandra to give birth. After about three hours of labor, Lessandra finally gave birth to her baby. We were also allowed to enter so the three of us entered immediately. "Sweetheart!" Ashton calls Lessandra worriedly. He immediately approached her and hugged her tightly. Lessandra, on the other hand, was crying. From what I can see now, my twin sister is very happy. And I'm happy for her as well. I was also carried away by my emotions so I also couldn’t help but cry. "Here's your daughter, Ma'am and Sir." Smiling, the nurse handed the baby to Lessandra. Lessandra accepted her baby slowly and carefu
