"Why... why are you here?" When Hanna arrived at her house after work, she saw Eric with her brother, Anthony. They were sitting on the sofa and watching a movie like they were already close friends."Sister, brother here... we played basketball earlier then we get tired and went home." Anthony quickly stood up to greet Hanna and assisted her with her bag and the things she was holding.Hearing Anthony, Hanna frowned. She didn't believe that Eric could be this friendly. But she couldn't avoid thinking about his plan.She knew Eric had something up his sleeve. Hanna just didn't like that her brother would be dragged into their matter. She didn't like her brother would be hurt because she knew his brother was already beginning to like him judging from Anthony's jolly expression. If Eric would be staying on the island, it would be okay but she clearly knew that Eric would leave them sooner. She didn't want to put her hopes up on him because she knew she would surely be disappointed.
“Baby… son? What are you doing here?” Arabella’s happiness was overwhelming upon seeing Adam. “Mommy, I am here to pick you up for the party,” Adam answered with a smile up to his ears. He had a very handsome and adorable aura that no one could resist not to look at him. This boy grew up so gorgeously handsome like his dad. She knew one day Adam was also going to be a successful man in the future just like his dad. “Mommy, are you okay?” Adam’s voice snapped her back to her senses. “Hmmm… of course,” She smiled and hugged her son again. “Come on, mommy! Dressed up, now. Let’s go to the party.” Adam sounded so excited. Arabella halted. She was so happy to see Adam but how could she possibly tell him that she didn’t want to go? But then, with her son’s eagerness to be with her, how could she possibly decline him too? Or she should reconsider her decision? She didn’t have the heart to refuse Adam and get him sad. “Baby? Who is with you? How do you know?” Arabella was still c
Arabella Jones and Adam Sky were like royalties striding gracefully on a red carpet. A beautiful royal princess and a young handsome prince holding each other hands easily caught everyone’s attention and that’s including the king.“Daddy!” Adam sounded charmingly seeing Bill walking so gorgeous towards them.Arabella tried her best not to stare at Bill’s handsome face for she knew she would have a very hard time taking her eyes away from him. It always happened. Bill had something that made her hypnotized and it was embarrassing.It was embarrassing because she could not control herself from staring at him. She always lost all control whenever Bill was around. Before, maybe it was okay because they were both untangled but now, Arabella found it already awkward. Bill Sky is already married and she had no plan to stare at someone’s husband. “Mommy, look! Daddy is very handsome.” Adam sounded teasing while wiggling their hands. Arabella just smirked cutely. When did her son deve
“Oh, sorry madame!” The waiter quickly uttered in panic. He was so nervous and pale like he was terrified of something or Arabella could already conclude that the waiter was terrified of someone. Arabella nodded at the waiter to get him off the hook. “It’s fine,” She answered quickly getting the table napkin, and then she tapped it on the wet part of her body. Adam quickly did the same. Her young boy was too reliable.Adam helped his mom while people started creating a buzz. It grew louder and louder like they were speculating on something but with respect to Bill no one dared to show off strongly.Kelly looked at Arabella with complaining and blaming expression. Even though it was not Arabella’s fault to create commotion from the crowd, Kelly’s eyes were filled with blame for Arabella. She seemed to have already confirmed that Arabella’s appearance would just ruin the party just like before and her son just brought a person who carried bad luck to their party. Reminiscing the
Earlier,“Bill, what are you doing?” Arabella was stunned when Bill got to her side and suddenly grabbed her hand. She didn’t know what he was planning but she could feel that he was up to something.“Trust me on this, Arabella.” Bill sounded calm but his expression was firm as he charmingly winked at her and then quickly pulled her. Arabella’s eyes were filled with confusion. She looked at Adam who was also looking at her. “Mommy, just trust daddy. It’s going to be okay.” Along with his wide smile, Adam sounded so sure and very handsome like his dad. Arabella didn’t know but Adam’s words were like hypnotizing her. Without any moment of delay, Arabella followed Bill Sky. He held her hand firmly and didn't want her to let go. Arabella could feel his domineering touch but she kept herself calm amidst her mind running wild.He was guiding her to the center of the dance floor that was surrounded by the guests of the event.Realizing what she was doing and seeing the different faces
The whole city was blown with the revelations at the Sky Anniversary party. It was like a huge explosion for everyone. A big bomb that was being dropped willingly out of a sudden. People were going crazy with the truth and not only that, for the first time, the Sky family had opened their door and let them see freely the feud in their family. What is life to be a Bill Sky? or What's life with Bill Sky? or "What is there in the Sky?In the city, certain gossip and speculations were spreading like wildfire.Some were making jokes about it but most were focused and eager to clarify their curiosities.Bill Sky was always living his best private life even if he was a very famous businessman. With his money and connections, he could shut down a big network that would go against his privacy but tonight, Bill brought the media reporters inside to cover everything. It wasn’t just local reporters but this also included international networks.Meanwhile, in Mark’s mansion, Mark and Greta w
“Drop all your guns, idiots!” Trishia was addressing to all the cops who were alerted with her detonator. They didn't see it coming. No one saw this coming. They couldn't believe that Trishia was carrying a detonator and surrounded the area with bombs.Trishia Meyer was known to everyone as a sweet actress of her generation. She gained popularity before when she won the best actress award and aside from that, she always carried that sweet rapport with the camera and in the public.A sweet girl turned bad indeed.“I will count to 3 and everybody here will be pulverized if you are not going to follow my order! Is everyone ready?” Trishia's eyes were mad as she looked at everyone in the circle. “One!” She started counting and no one dared to move. The cops were contemplating what to do as they could not risk the people inside. Judging Trishia’s mad expression, she had gone totally insane. She could kill them all with just a press of her detonator. One expert could say that it was
"Tell me what you have, bitch?!" Trishia could not get enough of her annoyance with Arabella. She could not accept that Arabella had something that she didn't have and actually, Arabella had everything and she... she had nothing. "You see, you are just a simple and stupid girl. You are no special... But look! Look at you! You have men left and right!" Trishia continued like she was complimenting Arabella but at the same time humiliating her. "These 3 powerful men were willing to take the bullet for you! Wow! Should I bow down to you now? You are really pretty something, huh! Or shall I say a flirt! Why can't you just tell us how to get a man and play him with your finger, huh?" Trishia sounded so liberated and sarcastic. She bombarded Arabella with harsh words and she had no plan to stop.Trishia was holding her hatred for Arabella for a very long time. Now, she would not retain a single word of hatred in herself.It was her time to slap everything to Arabella.Trishia went to Dam
“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
