Lessandra's POV:

"Lessanna, tell me about your life." I looked at Ashton's Grandpa in shock because of what he said. When I recovered I smiled at him then I told him about what had happened to me recently, as he wanted to hear.

"It's okay. I'm just a little busy with work. But I'm fulfilling my obligations as Ashton's wife." I said smiling. But deep inside, I'm holding my fear. As much as possible Ashton shouldn’t have noticed that I found out anything today.

"Is that so? That's good." he nodded then turned his attention to Ashton, something that caused me to take a deep breath.

Ashley, on the other hand, was still staring at me. If her stare was just deadly, I would probably have been lying here in my seat before.

"How about you, Ashton. Should I expect to have a grandchild with you?" he asked Ashton with a smile.

Cough! Cough!

I was coughing because I didn’t expect his Grandpa to ask Ashton that question.

"Are you okay?" Ashton asked me worriedly. I immediately nodded to him to say

Last night, as I was thinking I thought of just ending the contract I signed with Ashton."Yes?" he asked while raising his brows. But when he saw me outside the door, a smile suddenly replaced the frown on his forehead."Ashton, can I talk to you?" I hesitated to question him. His forehead furrowed again then he grabbed me by my waist and pulled me closer to him.DUG. DUG. DUG.Suddenly my heartbeat became abnormal again because of what he did. Every time he gets too close to me, my heart suddenly starts beating so fast.

    Lessandra's POV:"Where have you been?" I asked Ashton. It was past eleven o'clock in the evening and he had just arrived home. "Hi, sweetheart!" Instead of answering my question, he greeted me sweetly. He even kiss me on my lips. "Did you work overtime?" I asked him. He just smiled at me in response. "Yeah, as always." he said. I rolled my eyes but of course, without him noticing. "Let me." I said when I saw he was removing his necktie. I smiled at him sweetly, causing him to stop from what he's doing. I took that opportunity to remove the necktie and jacket he was wearing. After I removed his jacket I next took his replacement dress. I could see the shock in his eyes but eventually that was replaced by a smile as well. "Thank you." he said while hugging me from the back. I grabbed his arms wrapped around my waist then spontaneously smiled at my lips. I also immediately erased the smile coming out of my lips because it wasn’t right. "Anything for you, sweetheart." I told him w

But no matter how much I vomit, I can't get anything out. I also stayed in the bathroom for a few minutes to calm myself. When I felt comfortable I rinsed and washed my face.As I was walking out of the bathroom, I suddenly felt dizzy. I have been experiencing this feeling for almost a few days now so what I did was I took the pregnant test that I bought yesterday. When I got there, I hurried back to the bathroom to take the test. After a couple of minutes, finally, I'm done with the test. Even though I haven't seen the result yet, I'm nervous. I prayed for a while before looking at the pregnancy test that I am holding. “It has two lines, means, it's positive. I'm pregnant! "I said to myself in tears. I stood up and walked around the bathroom. I can’t understand the excitement and awkwardness I’m feeling right now. I don't know

"Be careful." she said to me again. I just nodded and smiled at Nanay Linda in response. "Lessandra!" Nanay Linda and I looked at the source of that voice together. It was Ashton. He's rushing to approach me. When he got close to me he hugged me tightly. I was also surprised when he suddenly knelt in front of me. As he knelt down tears flowed from his eyes. Nanay Linda left quickly and Ashton and I left here in front of the mansion. "Lessandra, I'm sorry. Please, forgive me, please?" he repeatedly pleaded. Suddenly my chest tightened until I just realized myself crying as well. "I didn't mean what I did, I really loved Lessanna but she couldn't love me back so I did that thing to her. I kidnapped her because I'm being selfish with her. I don't want any other guy to get her. I know it was wrong, that's why I'm askin

Only a sweet smile and look full of love I bestowed on him. I also close my eyes when he hugs me tightly and kisses my forehead. "You don't know how happy my heart is, knowing that you're willing to accept the whole me. I mean, despite of what I did. I believe that I don't deserve your love and trust anymore because I'm a liar, yet you're still here loving me. " he said and hug me again. I just laughed at his excessive cringe. He's so sweet and I felt like I'm melting with his sweetness. "It's not your fault if you've been in a traumatic incident when you were still young. Lessanna and I have been there too. When we lost our both parents." I said sadly. I felt his hug tighten on me. I can't help myself but smile. "So, can we go to my sister now?" I asked him excitedly. "Yes, of course we can. I'm sorry."

Neither of us here doubted that you weren't really Ma'am Lessanna, Ma'am Lessandra." amazed she said more."Is that so? I'm sorry if I lied to you." I said."Oh, that's not it, Ma'am Lessandra.

    Lessanna's POV:"I'm sorry." I only said that when Ashton rushed Lessandra to the hospital because of her sudden fainting. I didn’t accidentally slap her, I was just shocked to find out she was pregnant and Ashton was the father of the child in her womb. I hate Ashton because he was the reason why Daddy had an accident fifteen years ago. If it weren’t for the accident, maybe Lessandra and I would still be with Daddy Rodleigh. But because of him, my Dad died unexpectedly. And I can't forgive him because of that. "Ma'am Lessanna, what happened?" Nanay Linda asked worriedly. I just looked at her with a cold look and I didn’t speak to answer her question. Instead, I ran away from the mansion to follow Lessandra and Ashton. I want to apologize to Lessandra for what I did earlier. I shouldn’t have done that, especially and she was my twin. She is the only family I have. It was also enough that we had been separated for almost eight years. This time, I want to spend my whole life with her

"Sweetheart!" anxious Ashton calls to me when he sees me awake. He quickly approached me to check if I was still in pain. "Are you okay? Aren't you feeling anything else? Do you feel good now?" he asked worriedly. I didn't answer his questions, instead I just look at him. I stared at him as if he's the greatest gift that I've ever received from God. And if I lose him I don’t know if I can handle it. He was like a dreams that was very difficult to give up. While staring at him, I can't help myself but cry. Of all the people in the world, why him?

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!

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

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.

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.

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
