Chapter 73

"Uhm... You asked to see me, Sir," Knox broke the awkward silence. After he got the call from Mr. Arnaldo, the rest of his day have been filled with unending questions which he kept asking himself. He couldn't help but look forward to the time he asked them to meet at the cafe, and here they were now.

"Yes," Mr. Arnaldo replied to him after he sipped from the coffee he ordered.

"What happened between you and my daughter? I want you to be honest with me," As those words pierced into his ear, his heart sank into his stomach.

'I cheated on her and treated her like a piece of trash' Is that what he was going to say to this man? Would he still want to see him after he hears everything in detail, what he has done to his daughter? He asked himself and became even more nervous.

"I haven't been a good husband to her. I was never one," He shook his head, preferably not going into details to avoid the story that touches the heart later.

    Chapter 74 The sound of Aliyah's blaring alarm pulled her out of her deep slumber, and she groaned tiredly as she touched her forehead before she forced her eyes open. Her body felt tired that she could barely move a finger, but that only lasted for a few minutes before she was able to get herself out of the bed and strode into the bathroom where she did her usual morning routine of brushing her teeth, having her bathe, and doing every other necessary things. As she walks back into her room minutes after she was done bathing, she sighed frustratingly upon realizing that she was the only one now living in the house. She badly wanted to move in to live with her dad at this stage of her life, but then, she was avoiding drama with Lisa even though the woman didn't have anything negative against her. Pushing all the thoughts to the back of her mind, she dragged herself to the closet where she picked out some clothes and proceeded to her skincare routine, after which she got

    Chapter 74 "I told you that I'm not interested in taking over the family business. Why are you forcing me to, Mom?" Tate uttered frustratingly as he touched his forehead. He was sitting in the living room of a mansion, and sitting in front of her was Felicia, her fifty-year-old desperate Mom who was hell-bent on making him succeed the family business. "What is wrong with you, Tate? I have tried so hard to make you understand..." "To make me understand what? You want me to take over the business so you can trap me, right? What's so difficult to understand, huh? I told you that I'm not going to marry Emily, and that is my final decision. Don't try to force me to do what I don't want," He cuts her off as he stood up to his feet "Excuse me," He muttered before he headed toward the staircase, glad that she didn't try to call him back. "Ugh!" He groaned once he stepped into his room and slammed the door hard behind him. He ran his fingers through his hair frustratin

    Chapter 76 "Are you kidding me, Dad?" She scoffed angrily as she sprang up to her feet while looking at the man unbelievably. "I am not, dear. You need to do this. I know you are mad at him, and I understand how you feel, but still, you need him now. You can't possibly get someone else to do this for you, and you know it," Mr. Arnaldo tried to convince her, and she sighed as she ran her fingers through her hair frustratingly. It was unbelievable that her dad was trying to talk her into going back to Knox, who treated her like a piece of trash, and knowing it wasn't something she could avoid was driving her nuts. "Dad, do you have any idea how he has treated me? Do you know the pain I've been through while I was with him?" She reminded him, and he sighed as he stood up and held her hands. "Come on, baby. I understand how you feel, ok? I wouldn't have allowed this if we have any other choice, but we don't. I can't keep watching you wallow in pain like this. If it's r

    Chapter 77 Waking up this morning to find Aliyah sleeping peacefully by his side was like a dream come true for him, and he couldn't help the excitement that filled his heart. "Isn't she beautiful?" He asked himself as he stared at her, his face laced with a bright smile. "I'm sorry," He whispered as he tucked the strand of hair on her forehead, behind her ear as he sighed briefly. Although he didn't know how he was going to do it, but he already made up his mind to make up for the past and earn her love, no matter what it was going to take him. He carefully stood up from the bed and walked his way into the bathroom where he washed his face before he headed downstairs to the kitchen. It has been a while since he was last in the kitchen, but he is going to make it a daily routine to cook for her now. "What should I make?" He muttered as he looked around the kitchen while scratching the back of his neck, but nothing seemed to be coming through for him. "Ugh

    Chapter 78 Tate was sitting along the hallway of the hospital while burying his head between his palms as many thoughts ran through his mind. Taking over the company was the last thing on his mind because it wasn't what he ever wanted, but then, it seemed like he didn't have any choice at this point now. He was torn between chasing his initial dream and doing his Dad's last wish now. The man had just a few more months to live, and he should do something that will make him smile in his last days, right? "Ugh! Why is this happening to me?" He mumbled and scoffed as he finally raised his gaze. His eyes were red and puffy since he hadn't gotten enough sleep in the last two days now. Taking a deep breath, he stood up to leave the hallway, but stopped on his track when he turned and found Aliyah standing there and staring at him. His heart dropped as he stared back at her. "Ali... yah..." His voice broke as he blinked his eyes to be sure that he wasn't hallucinating, and

    Chapter 79 'You should do the right thing. This constant treatment will soon affect you and the baby negatively if you continue like this' She sighed and sank into the couch as those words echoed in her head. Those were the doctor's advice to her before she left the hospital earlier today, and now she knew she had to do something about it and not keep folding her arms and holding the pain in. "Do you want me to make you juice?" Knox asked as he came to sit beside her on the couch, and she rolled her eyes as she moved away from him, and he sighed briefly. Although he wanted to give this some time so she could heal from the heartbreak, but her health and that of the unborn child were in danger, so they had to do this to avoid either of them getting hurt in the future. "No," She replied to him flatly, and he sighed as he slowly nodded his head. "Let me know if you want me to do anything for you. You must be tired, I should massage you," He offered, but she rolled her

    Chapter 80 He stared intensely into her eyes before he finally covered the distance between them, as he claimed her lips. His heart stopped beating for seconds as he waited to get used to her soft lips after so many months. Since they weren't so close in the past, they never got to kiss like this, so he never knew what her lips tasted like. The kiss was slow, but intense, leaving each of them breathless as they explored each other's lips. "I'm going to take my time... Permit me just this one," he pulled away from her and whispered against her ear before he swept her off her feet without even giving her time to reply to him. Slowly, he lowered her to the bed, his eyes feasting on her naked body since the towel has left her body now. Now that he got all the time in the world to stare at her, he couldn't help but notice the beauty he never noticed all those times they were together. He was such a stupid man for running after other women when he had this beauty goddess at

    Chapter 81 The sound of Mason's ringing phone pulled his attention, and he groaned angrily as he tossed on the bed before reaching out for his phone that was laying on the bedside table, swiping the answer button without bothering to check who the caller was. "Hello, Sir... Why are you not here yet? The clients are here already," Hearing his secretary's voice on the other end, he snapped his eyes open as he sprang up to a sitting position, checking the wall clock afterward. It was already 8am. Damn! How the hell did he end up sleeping that much? He asked himself, but that didn't matter right now, so he quickly got off the bed and stormed into the bathroom after he threw his phone on the bed. Since he had not much time left, he quickly had his bath and walked back into the room to get dressed. It took him fifteen minutes before he was done, storming out of his room afterward. As he descended the staircase minutes after he left his room, he stopped on his track when the

    Chapter 148 Two weeks later Aliyah tossed on the bed for the umpteenth time, lazy to get off the bed. Her eyes felt heavy and her head wasn't exempted from the feeling. "What's this?" She mumbled as she finally managed to sit up on the bed, rubbing her fingers gently on her forehead while groaning in pain. Knox has traveled on a business trip since three days and she was left here by herself all alone. Her Mom only comes by once in a while, and now that Tate's fiancee is pregnant and also they were planning to get married, he didn't have enough time to come by. Mason has been busy with work and his girlfriend too, while Janice and Lee traveled on a honeymoon trip to Italy, so she was left here all alone by herself. "I should've just gone with Knox," she regretted her hesitance to go with Knox when he asked her to. "It's just five days you are going to spend there, so it's fine," She had said to him when he asked her to come with him, but now it felt like he has been gone for thre

    Chapter 146Aliyah stared at her reflection in the mirror, and as she thought about what happened in these past few months, then she could only be grateful that everything although would remain in her heart forever, was always going to be memories to her.Knowing that everything was over now, she was finally at peace. No reason to worry when her husband leaves the house, no need to worry that some assassin might break into the house and harm her. There was nothing to worry about, but most importantly, having her parents alive and healthy was what she was most grateful for, but it hurts knowing that her stepdad died protecting her Mom. He never deserved to die.The sound of the shower in the bathroom finally stopped after a while, and the door opened, revealing Knox. His body was dripping wet and his hair was damp. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist and a little bulge down there."Hey..." He smiled brightly as he walked over to the closet and picked out his robe, dropping it

We are in this together," Tate cupped her cheek in his palms and assured her, looking into her eyes. As planned, Shirley was going to move in to live with Mrs. Andrews. This was the only thing she could do, she was determined to do it earlier, but now that she was here, her fear was already taking over her. What if her plans fail later? What if she ends up getting thrown out of the house? What if she insists that she can't marry her son? What will become of her."I told you there's nothing to worry about. Why do you look so scared like my Mom is a masquerade," He pinched her cheeks playfully, but deep inside he knew that there was really need for her to be worried knowing the kind of tough person his Mom was."Come on, smile for me," He uttered, and she forced a smile."Wait while I go get your things from

    Chapter 144A few days later Knox pulled over at the parking lot of the restaurant and stepped out of the car. He then proceeded toward the entrance door, and found Janice waiting for him as soon as he walked inside. She had texted him yesterday and asked them to meet at the restaurant this morning so they could talk about something important, and that had made him curious since last night as many negative thoughts won't stop coming to his mind. Did she change her mind about turning herself in? That was one of the questions he kept asking himself, but he would soon find out about it, anyway."Hi! Did I keep you waiting?" He asked when he got to where she was seated, pulling out the chair across from her and settling in it."Not really. Good morning," She forced a smile at him, tucking her hair behind her ear. She was cladded in a short black armless gown and a pair of black heels like someone going to a funeral."Why is she dressed in all black? Is she planning to do something evil?"

Janice stared at her reflection in the mirror, trying everything she could to hold back her tears. It was a great day for her, a day she should push all the negative energies away and focus on her man so they could have fun to the fullest, but knowing that this moment won't last long for them was something she couldn't hold herself back for."It's ok, Janice. You already said you were going to enjoy the remaining days to the fullest. You said that you won't let anything tamper with your joy," She assured herself, fighting back the tears that already brimmed in her eyes."Yeah... There you go," She whispered as she leaned forward and cleaned her tears, adding some makeup to cover up her eyebags."Yes! That is perfect," She forced a smile at her reflection, then took a deep breath."Enjoy your day, baby girl," She said to her reflection and finally left t

Knox has been doing well too.It was a beautiful Saturday morning, and the day set for Arnaldo to go see Lisa in the prison along with Aliyah and Knox.Sitting in front of the mirror and staring at her reflection, Aliyah sighed as the thought of everything that has happened in the last few months played in her head. How they were able to survive until now was still like a miracle she couldn't comprehend, and she could only be grateful to her maker for being there for her all along. If anyone ever told her that the one behind the shit that has happened to her was her stepmom, she would've been the last person to believe it. The woman has always been good to her, and although she was never comfortable being around her, she never gave her any reason to doubt her pure heart toward her. She didn't imagine that she c

    Chapter 141Aliyah paced restlessly along the hallway, her eyes filled with tears. Her hair was disheveled as a result of constantly scattering it. She looked horrible, but that was the least of the things she cared about at the moment. Her husband and Mom were in the ER fighting for their lives and she was hoping they'd survive it."Just this once, please... Please spare them for me. Please don't take them away from me," She fell to her knees and prayed silently, hoping he'd prayers would be answered. At least just this once.The sound of her ringing phone pulled her attention, and if not that the call was from her dad's maid, then she wouldn't have answered it. "Ma... ma'am Aliyah... There is a problem. Mr. Arnaldo... Blood... He...he was shot," The feminine voice quivered at the other end, and her heart sank into her stomach. Her jaw dropped."Wh... what did you say?"

Who was behind everything that has been happening? He asked himself, running his fingers through his hair, but couldn't come up with any answer, so he sighed deeply. Knox was also present in the hospital, and Aliyah too was worried. She was sitting on the bench and burying her face between her palms, crying her eyes out. She has just lost her foster Dad, and it hurts. "Babe, you need to be strong, ok?" Knox tried to comfort her, sitting beside her and wrapping his arm around her shoulder, but more tears came streaming down her cheeks. "What should I do, Knox? Why is everything falling apart?" She cried, and he wished he could provide an answer to her question. He pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, slowly patting her hair assuring her yet again that everything was going to be fine even though it was obvious that t
