"I, I'm just comforting her," Kieran covered her, giving her a worried side look. He agreed to keep the secret, so she trusts he will not say anything to her husband. Jacoben can't know yet. It will put them all in trouble.Jacoben frowned as he approached them. "Comforting her for what?" Her husband carefully held one of her arms and gently pulled her toward him. "What's wrong, hon? Why are you crying?""She's worried for the baby. Her pregnancy's complicated, so she's a bit scared. I was just trying to comfort her," Kieran explained.Kieran was taken aback when Jacoben glared at him like he had done something wrong."He's telling the truth," she said. "Sorry if I made you worry."Jacoben's face softened, but doubt was still evident in his eyes. Her husband is smart. He must have noticed something strange. She must think of a way to get rid of his suspicion."Is that so?" Jacoben said in a low but emphatic voice. "You know you can tell me, right? I can comfort you too.""I know, I kn

Jacoben's eyes narrowed at this then quickly stood up with clenched fists. "I really think that's not necessary. Thank you for the offer, but we will be taking our leave." "Don't you dare oppose me," Victor scowled. "You are in no place to make a decision here. I am the head of this family… my dear son-in-law," he said firmly, full of intimidation. Jacoben's forehead furrowed as he looked intently at Victor. "Good thing I'm not a Nobles." Maridona gasped, surprised by her husband's remark. She could feel the tension building between Jacoben and Victor. She nervously looked at her father's face and then at her sister, who was shaking her head. A few seconds passed before her father reacted to Jacoben's defiance. Victor let out an amused laugh, and then his face became serious again. "Fool... What a complete fool," he mumbled while shaking his head. Jacoben's jaw clenched as he couldn't stop the emotion he had been holding back for a while. He gently grabbed Maridona's arm and help

Maridona frowned as she listened to Jacoben and Kieran discuss the details of their plan to escape to another country. They did not have her full support on this. For her, running from her father was like going through a needle's hole. It was impossible.A few months have passed since Jacoben discovered her secret. And he did not cease to think of ways how they could get out of their situation. At the same time, he followed her father's orders compliantly so as not to raise any suspicions that they were scheming. "What do you think, hon?" Jacoben inquired, who had just finished explaining his new plan of escape. They are presently having their meeting at the balcony in their two-story contemporary home that Jacoben bought two weeks ago, far from NNA's eyes and ears.Maridona gazed down at her big belly. She gingerly rubbed it before turning to her husband. "That's too risky for the baby and me," she answered, sighing. Their plan changed several times because something always got in t

Maridona started sobbing fast and loudly. It took her several seconds before she could respond to her impatient sister."But, But— This is my child."She heard her sister cuss on the other end."Shane, please... Please...." she continued to beg."Shut it!" Shane shrieked, annoyed by her plea. "Just stop, okay? If you don't cease your delusions, I'll tell Daddy what you are up there, and you won't like it. You know how he is when he gets mad. He's not so merciful, Sister. You know it!""Shane, please, I ca—""I got to go!""Shane!"She was frozen in place when Shane cut their line. Her hands lost strength, dropping the phone to the floor. She gasped and covered her mouth when a strong wave of emotion surged within her.No, no... No!.She felt like a monster was devouring her, and she couldn't do anything. Her tears flooded her face while hopelessness enveloped her.Her limbs weakened, and her entire body quivered. She held on to the wall to prevent herself from falling.One of the maid

Maridona can't explain the joy she felt when she hugged her newborn baby for the first time. Her tears started to fall as she watched the best thing that had come to her. "Oh, my love... You're so beautiful...." she whispered exuberantly with a broad smile while staring at the infant's delicate face. She can feel her heart overflow with happiness. She couldn't take her eyes off her little one like there were no one else in the world except the two of them. She could not believe that an angel was given to her despite her filth, the impurity of her blood. And with all the guilt of letting her family do the most heinous crimes, she cannot help but think very low of herself. How could she be deserving of this most precious being? This baby is too pure for a garbage like her, but here it is, peacefully sleeping in her arms like it is the perfect place. The feeling is overwhelming but also wonderful. It was amazing. "Oh, look at you. So adorable!" Maridona squealed, ensuring her voice w

Chapter 86

Maridona could not explain the strange pounding in her chest on their way to her father's personal laboratory. They have been on the road for two hours already.She carried her child while Jacoben sat beside her at the back and Victor at the front."I don't feel good about this," she whispered.Jacoben gave her a worried look. "Will you be okay?"She nodded. "I have to be. I hope Lanz is all right. I feel guilty for getting him involved."Her husband did not answer with a dark expression on his face. It made her more anxious. What happened to their best friend?Jacoben looked outside the car's window before turning to her again. "Are you familiar with the lab we're going to?"She nodded while glancing outside. The surroundings have become familiar. "Actually, we're almost there," she added.A few minutes later, the car pulled over. They entered a small cabin in the forest where a secret laboratory lay beneath it.This is Victor's very first laboratory. This is where her father used to

"You?..."Even though her eyelids were heavy, Lucila forced her eyes open and peered at the woman who entered her room sneakily. The lights weren't turned on as if the stranger's visit was a secret. The woman was standing just a few steps from where she was lying."Do you remember me, Lucila?" the woman said almost in a whisper.She frowned upon realizing who her surprise visitor was. "Why are you here?" she asked back with a snort."I want to make a deal with you."She sneered and then narrowed her eyes."What does the princess of the Nobles need from a lowly creature like me?" "I want you to do something for me. If you do what I want, I will make sure you can escape from here with your child."She stifled a laugh and then sat up from her bed. The sound of the chains attached to her feet and hands echoed in the small room with her every movement."You're going to save me?" Her one eyebrow rose, looking at the woman up and down with sarcasm. "You can't even save yourself from your f

Jacoben stood restless and kept glancing at his watch. He was standing next to his car while Samantha was busy playing with his tie."Mommy is taking a while, isn't she?" he muttered playfully to the baby in his arms.He can't help but get jittery and anxious.

Chapter 89

Jacoben was about to run to her when someone suddenly pointed a gun at the back of his head."Drop your gun, or I will blow your head!"He halted. He frowned when he recognized the voice. "You're not going to kill me, Shane," he hissed.He hears her scoff loudly. "Oh, really? Should we see about that, brother-in-law?"He slightly shook his head in repulsion as his jaw clenched. He was forced to lower his gun and raise his hands. Shane ordered him to stand up and slowly walk towards Maridona."Make them stop, sister!" Shane hollered, gaining Maridona's attention.Maridona's eyes widened when she turned in their direction. Her mouth opened wide in shock upon seeing him."Jacoben?! What are you doing here?!""Mari, it's you, isn't it?"His wife was in front of him. He could see her face clearly, but it won't register in his brain. His guts twisted. Will he ever see her face again? Can Lucila undo her curse?"You're supposed to escape with Samantha! Why are you here?!" Maridona yelled.
