Hanna never imagined that day was going to come when Rosy would beg her to stay with Eric. She had known Rosy for being a straightforward woman from the start. If people would not know her personally, she sounded bitchy but full of elegance which made her very intimidating. Well, as for her, she just saw her once.At that time, she just knew her name was Rosy and nothing more.Hanna was not really a person to socialize with.She rather stayed in one corner than talk to some random strangers who would just brag about their branded clothing and how expensive the jewelry they were wearing was. It made her sick hearing some stuff about rich people.Nevertheless, Hanna was well aware that she was not fit in this kind of rich world.Her only knowledge was to swindle people and just came from a poor experience. She didn’t go to school because her mother was sick and they didn’t have the money to send her to school plus she still had a younger brother, Anthony. So, she chose to be pract
When Arabella and Bill arrived at his building, Arabella’s eyes could still not help wandering in every corner of his prestigious company. The Sky Corporation is the biggest and tallest building in Capital Z. Never she imagined that she would be able to step into this company in this lifetime and mostly, she never imagined that she would be walking beside the owner of this company not only that, her husband now. While they were walking, some memories flashed across her mind. She could see her old self, the woman who was wearing big round black-rimmed eyeglasses. Die curly hair and face covered with freckles. Her baggy pants and shirt plus her worn-out sneaker. A complete nerd. At that time, she was summoned by Bill Sky because she kissed him in a bar while she was getting rid of Jayson Hansen, his ex-boyfriend. Yes, she drinks but she was not a slutty kind of a girl. It was just, that night, she was a bit tipsy but she was in her proper mind. Her intention was clear but it
“Damien?!” Arabella could not contain her shock seeing Damien in the office working as if nothing has happened. Actually, he was more like just taking a vacation leave when Lira got arrested.Hearing someone just call his name, Damien lifted his head to see Arabella who was standing in front of him. Then he smiled at him. “Oh, your back, I am actually having a class session and it will start in a minute.” He hissed like he was in a hurry to prepare his material. Arabella strode closer to him. Her footsteps were unsteady like she seemed to see a ghost in her office.“Did… you? … Did you know what happened to Lira? Did you visit her already? Do you want us to visit her?” Arabella had so many questions for him. Damien is a good friend both to her and Lira. She just didn’t understand why he had to leave when Lira needed him the most. He could testify to what happened that day and why Lira was acting weird. Why she had to confess a crime that was unbelievable for her to make? Ara
Arabella was astonished to see her best friend and her husband again after such a long year of being away. “Oh gosh! Look at you! You are as gorgeous as before my ever-loving bestie!” Farrah was so happy to see Arabella too. She didn’t expect that Bill would call her husband and announced their grand wedding. At first, it was too absurd on her part as she couldn’t believe that the two would finally end up being together for real and not for any senseless contract made by the billionaire, Bill Sky. Aside from that, who could forget those fighting moments and tragedies that happened to her best friend because of Bill Sky? Farrah knew that Arabella hated the man the most but she also saw some special spark between the two from the start. Now, she was convinced that she was right from the start that the two would fall in love after all the unending bickering.“Oh…no! Look at you, my friend. Come one! I’m just so happy to see you!” Arabella could help but cry out of her happiness seeing
The night was sweet as a chamomile scent. Bill and Arabella showed their passionate desire for each other like they had missed each other the whole day of being away for a few hours. The supreme intimacy embraced filled with love for each other made the night so perfect “What do I do without you?” Bill whispered sexily near her earlobes. His sexy breath gave a shiver down her spine. She felt so full and loved with Bill Sky tonight.It was always a satisfying moment whenever she was with him.“Hmmm… Mr. Bill Sky, until now, I still can’t imagine that we are sleeping in the same bed cuddling the whole night, waking up with you in the morning, having breakfast with you and our son?” Arabella heaved a sigh before she continued. “It feels so unreal.” She commented like she was floating in the air thinking of her upcoming wedding with him.With their naked bodies entangled under the thick quilt, Bill hugged her to the side. “Me too…” He said in thin air like he was also in disbelief a
“Eric, no matter what, I will marry Bill Sky. I love him so much and I want to stay beside him for the rest of my life.” Arabella looked at Damien seriously as she uttered in a fixed tone. "And by the way, I..." She added and paused. "I married him. We are already married officially abroad." She just wanted to be honest with Damien. Not all people knew about her simple marriage to Bill abroad. Tomorrow's wedding was only the second one. Bill just wanted to give her a grand wedding.For whatever reason, Arabella married him for love and not for anything else.After hearing Arabella, Damien’s chiseled jaws moved as his eyes were deeply pierced into hers. His grip didn’t lessen a bit. He looked angry at her.They looked at each other battling through their eyes.Their stares were infuriating but no one wanted to give in. Arabella was decisive to defend Bill Sky as her husband from her long-time friend, Damien. She could not get angrier with Damien because she knew that he was just
“You can only be my wife,” Bill’s words still lingered in Arabella’s dream that night and it made her smile unknowingly in her sleep.Such pleasant words enveloped her heart like they were her protection against all odds. Bill chose her to be his wife and she only had the right to be wearing this title for the rest of her life.Until now, she still couldn't believe that this thing would happen to her. Who would have thought that after all the bitterness in her life plus their relationship was not the typical one?They got married once just to deceive his parents. Then she became his contractual wife. At first, she thought it was okay because there were no real feelings involved in the relationship and she trusted herself so much that Bill Sky was not the man she wanted to be with for the rest of her life. She was more than sure that she would never fall in love with his arrogance and all of him but things got twisted. She had fought the feeling but she was like fighting against
It was indeed a very fine day. As the wedding was announced to the public, the city was in an uproar.Arabella Jones and Bill Sky became an internet sensation for a week and their wedding was the top most searched topic around the world.The grand wedding was held inside Sky’s 7-star hotel. Fancy decorations and white flowers embellished the entire event room. Invited guests dressed elegantly like they were attending the most important event in the city. Only a few significant people were invited to the wedding. Some were all Bill's business partners and acquaintances. It was said that Bill publicized the wedding to put his bachelor's title to rest.Some said also that he wanted to put his seal on Arabella Jones so no other men would dare to fantasize about his beautiful wife.The wedding of the billionaire CEO, Bill Sky, and Ms. Arabella Jones was the talk of the town. Bill Sky was known to be the most handsome, young, and the most successful billionaire in the city.His fame
“Bi… Bill?” She frowned deeply as she hissed apologetically.How she missed identifying him?Now she realized his kiss was the kiss she ever wanted.The best kiss she ever tasted.She felt the intense familiarity but of course, due to her situation, she had no time to dwell on the feeling, or else she would fall into its spell and would cause her to be caught by her abductor.Bill’s face was red due to the slap she gave.He looked at her unreadably.Arabella felt nervous about his stare at her.“Aren’t you tired of running away from me?” Bill suddenly asked in a strict tone.Judging from his stern expression, Arabella was sure that she was the only human who had hit him.Now, he was angry and maybe felt humiliated.His seriousness was bringing a subtle dark vibe into the area.This signaled Bill's men to get rid of the people around.This left them alone.“Oh… I’m sorry… I thought… oh, I just…” Arabella didn’t know what to say.Clearly, she misunderstood the intention of his men becau
The next morning, Arabella woke in a strange room again.Compared to the present condition, she felt her body was gaining back her strength.She seemed to already recover her energy and for her, it was a good thing.She heaved a sigh of relief.Her breathing was fine now but she wasn’t sure if she was still alive.The immense darkness was gone just like that.Her eyes moved trying to figure out something.Then she suddenly lifted her hand to touch her face.She needed to feel the pain to know she was still living.When she saw her arm, her eyes widened.It was the only time she noticed that she had a drip again.Arabella halted in fear as her eyes stared at the needle in her hand.She was quickly taken aback as her memory brought her back to the time when she was held kidnapped by Damien.Her memory in Damien’s room immediately flashed across her mind.She wracked her brain trying to remember everything at that time.She knew there was something she needed to remember.Something impor
"Bill..." Sounding like a ghost, Arabella's voice was so cold. "Bill...my love. Help me... Help me, please..." Arabella felt trapped in the unending darkness. She could not move nor cry. Not even her tears were moving. They were stuck inside her eyes. Her body was very light but numb like it could float in the air. She could not hear herself breathing nor feel her heartbeat.'Am I dead?'She had thought trying to figure out where she was in. The darkness was consistent. It had no plan to allow some light to enter like it was very oppressive. "Bill...help!" Struggling to make her voice come out, she spoke again even if she knew that it was too impossible that one could hear her. It was like Bill was the only person who could get her out of the darkness. Arabella was waiting...She was patiently waiting for him…Even if there was no hope that he would come...still, she was hoping for him to save her.Meanwhile, the commotion in the airport went out of control when Damien got a
“Bill, where are you going?!” Kelly asked angrily and in panic seeing her son was going out somewhere with his terrible condition. George, his great assistant was putting him a coat.Bill didn’t say a word. He seemed not to want to talk to his mother or his mind was just so preoccupied with something that he missed hearing her or even noticing her presence.Either way, clearly, Bill was not in the mood.After getting a call from Lira, he quickly sat up and took off his hospital gown. “Bill, son! Your doctors were still not letting you go out with your condition. You are still not well for God’s sake! Can you listen to me please for once?!” Kelly was worried about him. Her heart was thumping like a drum. She could not just let him do whatever he wanted as his condition was not yet to be called stable. “Let’s go, George.” Bill didn’t answer her instead he walked through the open door with George behind.“Bill! Stop!” Kelly shouted angrily. Her eyes were in rage like she would not
On day 10 at the hospital, Bill got a call from an unknown caller. “Sir,” George, his right hand handed his phone to him. Bill just looked at him then his eyes landed on his phone. His eyes were soulless like a hawk that was too sharp and dangerous.It was only George who could talk to him not even his mother, Kelly, or his secretaries.No one wanted to be with him right now even his doctors. Just meeting Bill's dangerous eyes, they already wanted to run away or avoid him as he already fired 10 doctors in just one day and another 5 doctors the other day. He seemed to build strong invisible walls around him that nobody wanted to enter or they would greatly suffer.They say the real Bill Sky was back. The literal Bill Sky who was known for his merciless behavior and impatient demeanor. Looking at the phone, he just smirked without planning to receive it from George then his unfathomable eyes closed. “Arabella, where is she? Where is she, Mom?” On day 3 after he got shot, she wo
Arabella looked at the woman in shock. Her eyes were questioning her but the woman could not look her in the eye. She obviously felt uneasy with Arabella. “Ma'am, you… I know you. You are Damien’s mom, right?” Arabella asked quickly hoping she could get any help from the woman. Woman to woman, Arabella wanted to believe that she had a heart if she would know what Damien did to her. “Please help me, ma’am. Your son…” Without wasting any time, Arabella continued. “No…” The woman cut her abruptly. Finally, she faced Arabella with discomfort in her expression.Arabella could feel the woman was struggling to look her in the eyes but even though she did. “I am not his mother. He is not my son.” The woman dropped the bomb with a firm stance. She seemed to know what Arabella wanted from her. Hearing the woman’s words, Arabella halted. The glimpse of hope in her heart suddenly shattered.“I am just a paid actress miss. I do this for a living.” The woman said directly without backing
Arabella felt her body was cold and trembling tremendously. The surrounding was quiet but her mind was screaming for freedom.Her longingness to see her son and husband was invincible.She could not believe she did reach the ground successfully as she thought of giving up in the middle. She could still feel her nerves were shaking but now that she felt the ground with her bare feet, she felt quite a relief. Now, all she needed to do was to run far away from the place. Along with the chilly wind outside and the rough stony ground, Arabella was full of hope that she could see her son and her husband again but to her shock, someone seemed to wait for her on the ground. He waited for her to come.He made a trap and she fell for it.In the dark, Damien was standing smoking a cigarette. The heavy smoke coming from him blended with the chilly air giving Arabella a creepy side of him. She was not expecting to see him there as she thought Damien was already asleep at this time but she w
Trishia stood out from a wheelchair. The only woman who was in a wheelchair among the guests was none other than Damien’s mother. Due to her infection, her face was covered in half with a thin brown flowery-designed fabric. Loose full brown gown not too catchy and easily blended with the crowd. Arabella clearly saw what she saw. Damien was with that woman whoever she was.Not to be embarrassed by her condition, Arabella personally informed the head of security about the additional guest.It seemed that, she made a huge mistake.A terrible mistake. It was clear to her now that the woman in a wheelchair was Trishia all along and not Damien's mom.Damien tricked her but why?It was her biggest question to her old long friend.Why he had to break her trust in him?What happened to Damien?His reason was so blurry but it was so clear that he connived with Trishia's evil plan.They deceived her by using Damien's mom as a ploy.She didn't even know if that woman was his real mom or jus
“Mommy, wake up!” The sweet little voice in her head made her open her eyes. Then she saw her little boy Adam smiling at her so sweetly. His lovely smile instantly lightened up her day. She smiled back at him and then suddenly kissed his forehead. Then, she kissed his nose tip and for a while, she touched it with her nose tip hitting his little nose side to side repeatedly.Adam chuckled happily then finally she kissed his chubby cheeks and tickled him non-stopped. Their laughter echoed around like they were the happiest mother and son.She was so happy being with her son and her heart was full. “Did I miss something?” Suddenly, another charming voice was approaching. The mother and son suddenly stopped and looked at the handsome owner of the voice. “Daddy!!!” Adam jumped out from her and ran toward the man excitedly. Arabella smiled at them. Seeing the two together was her happiest. Bill winked and her cutely then he smiled. Until now, Bill was giving her butterflies in th
