Arabella could already feel defeat.Bill was lying on Trishia’s bed calmly. The first and second buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned while Trishia was hugging him so tightly like all her body was touching Bill’s. She didn’t have to ask what happened before she came in. She could feel her heart was extremely aching as some sharp blades sliced it slowly but deeply. She could feel her heart was bleeding tremendously.Arabella's hands clenched the paper in her hand tightly. Though she had this in her mind before she entered the room but she could still hold the intense pang in her heart that was sucking her up. How could Bill arrogantly leave her with a contract then after he slept with Trishia?What did he want from her?Did he want the two of them?One would take the role of his wife and the other one would play the role of his mistress.Arabella's eyes stared sharply at the intimate view in front of her while her temperature was boiling.Bill obviously didn’t want to choose betw
After a while, the two strangers who met in the park sat next to each other. Arabella felt a bit relieved that she found her. She didn’t know that they had the same hobby releasing all their sorrows in an outdoor place where people seemed to be so busy playing and had no time to mind other people’s business. For them, it was a place where they could cry.Cry until their heartaches mend.“What brought you here?” Arabella asked first. She still could not believe seeing the familiar face in the park. Worst, she was crying too loud than hers. “Hmmm… well, it’s the place where I don’t have to spend money just to cry,” Hanna answered. She wondered also why she saw Arabella in the park alone. All those days, she didn't hear any single news about Arabella Jones or Eric Grant. All she knew is that, Arabella Jones is the legal wife of Eric Grant. In this case, she had done a very big sin to Arabella when she let Eric take her body, and not only that the greatest sin was that she loved
Arabella and Hanna drowned their sorrows by drinking. They were not in a hurry to go home and they seemed they didn’t have any plan to stop.“I have to…” Hanna sounded in a hurry. “I have to pee so I have to go to the restroom.” Hanna’s voice was very tipsy. When she stood up, she almost stumbled but then she quickly found her balance. “I’m okay… I’m fine… No need to worry.” She raised her hands in the air and sounded at Arabella. Her eyes were round and silky. Hanna was already completely drunk as she walked in the restroom’s direction in a zigzag.She went left and right bumping and hitting someone unintentionally until she successfully reached the restroom.Arabella was left at their table. She felt like vomiting already as her vision was spinning. At this point, she hated the alcohol. She blamed everything on the alcohol but seeing the liquid inside her bottle, she could not just throw it. She drank it in one go until a phone on the table was ringing. Arabella looked at t
“You shoot me! You wanted to kill me and now you wanted a piece of my success?” Trishia sounded despising the Senator. “How dare you!” Her eyeballs were bulging due to intense anger. She could not believe the shameless guts of the Senator. It seemed she had no escape from his control but Trishia would not let him rule her life. He despised her already before so it would be better to stay that way. She had no ties with the Senator. Not anymore.“Hahaha!” The Senator laughed very loud like he heard the funniest joke in the world. “Who said I only wanted a piece? Trishia... Trishia... come on my fake daughter. Do you really think you can escape from me? Yeah, I shoot you that time and I will not hesitate to do it again when the time comes. Do you understand?” The Senator sounded full of threat. Now that Trishia had gained power over Bill Sky, that just meant, she would also have the power to take Sky Corporation. Sen. Meyer would not mind calling Trishia his daughter again. For h
“Arabella… get sober now! I have to go back to my fiancée. Do you understand?” Bill’s tone carried annoyance. It was impatient and his expression too. He didn’t like someone to hinder his plan of leaving especially when he was in a hurry and no one dared only this woman. He looked at her with killer eyes but Arabella mustered all her courage to stop him tonight. She refused to be just his mistress. A hidden secret affair. No way! She was once his wife and she should be in Trishia’s position right now if only Trishia didn’t trick Bill Sky. “Stay here for tonight.” Arabella sounded stubborn. She was not pleading but she was stating what she wanted and what he was going to do for the night. It was just rightful that he was going to stay with her rather than to stay with Trishia just like what he did in the morning. Bill slept with Trishia on the same bed. Just remembering it, gave her a sharp pinch in her heart.She didn’t know what she was doing but she felt she needed to ta
Eric didn’t know how to deal with Hanna’s hatred toward him. He didn’t even know the reason why he had to see her again. For the first time in his life, he got confused with the situation he was in. He was confused about his feeling toward Hanna. He hated her for what happened to Rosy’s family and he could not forgive her for being the reason why his aunt died. Hanna was the one to be blamed for everything but when he saw the blood on the bed that night, he was devastated. He was bursting with different emotions. He was like in limbo with complex feelings toward Hanna.How could he love her when she was the reason for Rosy's family's tragedy?“Calm down… Calm down…” Eric tried to pacify Hanna by hugging her tightly but the latter was trying to push him strongly. She seemed so fed up with his presence and just wanted to flee right away. He felt an explicable pang in the heart. The once sweet and joyful Hanna seemed to be so aloof with him right now. He could sense she didn’t
Earlier, Hanna was left with no choice. She could not deny the fact that Eric’s movements had turned her on. There was something there that made her lose her control. She didn’t know why but it made her respond to all his touch. She liked it. Her body like it a lot. It was the feeling she had imagined doing her first with someone who could capture her heart. That... if there is someone out there who could tolerate her. She was about to close that part of her life because of her father. She had learned to hate men all her life but when she met Eric, her conclusion about changed. She learned to build confidence in men. With Eric, she fell in love with him easily. She knew he was the man who can have her first. At this point, the feeling she imagined exceeded. Eric was so good at making her arousal awakened. With his every touch, she could feel intense hotness and electrifying sensations. This is the feeling she wanted. The wildness and gentleness were blended perfectly.
The night was full of tension in Bill’s penthouse. How could he leave the naked Arabella?How could he just shut his eyes when he had a hard time taking his stare out at her sexy curves?Bill was in a big mess. He could not make Trishia disappointed again. “What are you doing?” Bill asked as he frowned deeply.Arabella looked at him seriously. Her eyes were provoking him. “As you can see, Mr. Sky…” Arabella gulped. She could not even understand why she took off her clothes but she was already in a situation, so she was going to pursue it no matter what. This is for Bill anyway. She would do everything just to stop him from leaving. “I want you tonight.” She added as she clenched her fists hard to stabilize her nervousness and embarrassment. Bill’s eyes narrowed. He seemed not to believe what he was hearing from her. He had known her as aggressive when she tried to break his engagement with Trishia and then she agreed to live with them under the same roof. She always claimed
“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
