Chasing Argo Greensmith (English) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Beginning The sun shone so brightly, its rays burning my skin. But what pain is worse than this? The pain that cuts to my heart? The pain that makes my whole body ache a million times over? Or the pain that burns my soul? Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked out the window, where the wind blew against the white curtains. I had been awake for a while but my mind was blank, except for the question of how to begin… I had been in the hospital for a day. The doctor said the baby was fine. Thankfully, I was brought to the hospital in time and didn't miscarry. "You're lucky, ma'am, your baby is strong," the doctor had said before leaving the room earlier. I absentmindedly stroked my growing belly and looked back out the window. I was so grateful that nothing bad had happened to me and the baby, and to the person who brought us here to the hospital. I bit my lip hard after remembering what happened at the hotel last night. I deeply regretted everything. I made a scene again and ruin

Argo Greensmith (POV) "Are you sure about this? You're really not going to talk to her?" Christof stood beside me, his arms crossed over his chest as he watched Natalia walk away. I had been standing by the glass wall for several minutes, struggling to control my emotions and resist the urge to go down and find her. "What's your plan now?" He asked again. I watched her leave the building's courtyard before turning around and sitting down in my swivel chair. I held my throbbing temple and closed my eyes. "You can't ignore what your dad and the Villarosas said. Natalia has already caused a lot of damage to both families, especially your company." I looked up at Christof before clenching my jaw. Earlier in the meeting, Dad had practically chewed me out for what happened at the engagement party. They were serious about having Natalia arrested for the scandal that unfolded last night, and they were going to include the incident at Florisse's supposed wedding in the charges against

Heiress I collapsed onto the soft bed, my body heavy with exhaustion. I stared at the white ceiling for a few minutes, replaying the events of the day in my mind. I closed my eyes tightly and took a deep breath. Mr. Falcon was my only hope for getting back on my feet. Maybe he could offer me a job, any job, just to get back on track. Before going to sleep, I ordered some food from downstairs for dinner. I had forgotten to eat because of the long journey and packing my belongings. I couldn't neglect myself anymore, because there was a life depending on me now. I also didn't miss the opportunity to swim in the outdoor pool right in my suite. While it wasn't as luxurious as Mr. Falcon's suite, it was perfect for one night. My dinner order arrived, and I brought it to the edge of the pool. I swam while taking bites of my food. I couldn't help but smile and shake my head. Tomorrow, I would be homeless and broke. So I was making the most of this night. After I finished eating,

After we ate, my mother and I went to the mall. Before that, Dad gave us each a Mastercard. He said to use it for buying personal items. He told us to buy any clothes, shoes, and bags we wanted. "Is it okay for us to use what's in this?" I asked my mother when we were at the counter of a department store, as she handed the card to the cashier. She picked out clothes for herself and clothes for my growing belly. I saw her sigh before turning to me. "I'm sorry, my child, for depriving you of a life that should have been abundant and comfortable. Now, your father has the chance to make it up to you. Don't think this isn't for you because someday, everything your father has will be yours." I looked into her eyes. I saw sadness there, but her eyes sparkled when she smiled at me. "Maybe it would be nice if we got facials? You should get your hair done too?" I saw her smile brighten. After we finished shopping, we went straight to the salon. Since I couldn't use chemicals, I just got

I drove back to Calatagan, Batangas. The trip from Nasugbu town took about half an hour. So, while I was on the road, I decided to open my phone for a bit.I peeked at Facebook, hoping to entertain myself, but I didn't expect to see Andra's post on my newsfeed.She was live, seemingly at a party. Her camera was shaky, so I didn't immediately leave the live. I stayed and watched her live video. She also smiled at the camera and read some comments there. But I noticed she smiled and immediately walked towards a group of dancers. One of them was Paul, who even gave a peace sign to the camera, and Christof and some female friends of Florisse, Barbara and Gellie.I took a deep breath when Andra turned back to the camera. "Hi, bitch!"That's when I stopped and wanted to cut the live, but she quickly reversed the camera and was now walking towards a table. I froze when I saw Florisse sitting next to the last man I didn't expect to see.My heart skipped a beat as I watched him drink his bottl
