All Chapters of Oh! My Sweetheart: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Natalie sat staring at space. Her knees tucked under her chin as she thought about her ignorance to the situation of her parents. She had always believed that it was their fault for selling her out so cheaply to the Georges' by taking such a huge loan from them and using her as a collateral without her knowledge.She doesn't need much explanation from a third party to understand that her parents were used by Oscar and his mother to achieve one of their unscrupulous goals. Why is the city so blind to notice that the downfall of a company always turns out to be in the favor of Georges' Furniture?"I'm such a fool," she swiped a hand across her face to wipe her tears, looking up at Archer who could only watch her.That was the first time Archer felt like that. He always had a way to ease her pain in her past grievances, but he looked confused about what to do to make her feel better. Sex didn't make sense to him at that moment because it only temporarily wipes their worries, only for th

Natalie couldn't sleep the whole night. She paced around restlessly and called Archer's phone after waiting for him to send her the message he promised to send as soon as he got out safely with Emilia and Spencer.She got more worried after calling several times without him picking up. It was morning and she still couldn't be at peace. She was about to call Stephanie's number when Spencer called and told her that he came out last night and didn't find Archer at the location he gave him."Did you call him? He doesn't take my calls or reply my texts. I'm so worried, Spencer. What if something has happened to him?" Natalie was already crying over the phone."Hey, calm down, Natalie. He doesn't take my calls either, but I will keep trying. Archer always finds a way out, so don't worry about him." Spencer advised solidly."I just have a bad feeling about this. Well, I hope he does, I don't want to lose him." She heaved a sigh and threw herself back to the bed, feeling lonely and low-spirit

A geisha girl showed them to their rooms after they had met the old parents of Mr. Adams who seemed cheerful to have them. They had made them feel welcomed in a Hawaiian and Japanese tradition, but they still couldn't feel comfortable. They were shown into different rooms, but Archer can't have Natalie leave his side and she willingly let him lead her to his own room and was ready to share with him because she's too afraid to be on her own. Her legs just moved on their own volition, not because she knew that she was walking. She could as well be floating like some people in fantasy books.Natalie had been fighting back her nauseous feeling since she arrived at the place, so she ran into the bathroom and vomited everything she had eaten into the toilet, giving in to hysterics.Archer matched up to her and put his hand at the small of her back, his other hand patting her hair and pushing stubborn strands that threatened to fall into the water ware back."I killed a man, Archer. No one

Archer didn't go back to the Georges' estate. He had received a call on arrival in Hawaii. Mr. Adams had helped him meet the family that he had served when the family lawyer contacted him.He couldn't disclose this development to Natalie because he would have to explain the whole story to her and make her understand, and that would consume a lot of time. He didn't want to get her involved in his own mess too.Ten years ago, when he left the Georges' estate in anger, he met Eric in the shantytown that he first moved to, knowing that that was where people like him belonged and survived. Eric introduced him to one of his clients that had stomach cancer.The girl was about Natalie's age at that time and looked a lot like her. Knowing that she was going to die soon, her grandfather offered him an irresistible contract to marry the girl and stay with her for the short time that she's bound to spend on earth.He was hesitant to accept the mouthwatering offer, but his conscience nagged him si

Natalie perched on one of the two-seater couches in the hotel room and wondered about the exclusive five-star hotel that Archer was able to get reservations for her and the McCartneys.She also overhead the receptionist discussion with another hotelier that there's a change of ownership. She's not stupid, and she hopes her suspicions aren't exactly what she's thinking because she trusts Archer would have let her in on everything going on in his life.She knows that he came back after ten years with nothing but a patched faded bag that contained his washed out clothes. He practically came back in rags and they went through a lot as nobodys, but look at her getting nice treatment in an expensive hotel in Manila, which happened because of him.She swayed when she tried to stand up and an unusual pain stabbed her heart. She was able to steady herself, standing strongly on her feet, but the pain didn't go away. That has happened once before, which she had ignored since it was gone just the
