Chapter 181~ Remembering

"So, that's how we met. But... We didn't fall in love instantly. I probably crushed on you first," Heather chuckled at the memory. "I even made the first move." "I don't think so," Adrian replied. "I may not remember but I think I liked you first." They were seated in Heather's room as she told Adrian everything that he wanted to know about their relationship. Heather smiled. She said, "I was just kidding. We both liked each other and then fell deeper in love after spending more time with each other. It was love at first sight." Adrian returned her smile. He remarked, "I can't stop looking at you. You're so beautiful. I swear, I'm lucky you're my wife. I was so jealous last night when I saw you talking to another man." "I just stuck around because I was equally jealous and wanted to watch what you were doing. However, I suddenly felt dizzy and you know what happened next," Heather responded, recalling how she almost ended up spending a night with another man. "Yeah... Henry sai

Chapter 182~ Stomp on them

Just when Heather thought she would get hit by the car coming in her direction, a gunshot went off and the car swerved, hitting the lamppost on the side of the road. She gasped, holding the left side of her chest as she tried to calm her racing heart down. A few men in black came out of nowhere and sought out the driver of the car. They were Henry Ford’s bodyguards who had been following them quietly. Suddenly, Heather was engulfed in a hug and lifted off the road by Adrian. He placed her down after crossing the road and held her shoulders before looking into her eyes. “I remember, Heather. God, I thought I would never see you and our daughter again,” he said and pulled Heather into a tight embrace. Heather’s heart skipped a beat at Adrian’s words. Her eyes widened as she asked, “You recovered your memories? You remember me now?” “Of course, Tigress. I remember… when I saw the car heading in your direction, I suddenly felt this fear that I would lose you and then, the memorie

Chapter 183~ Time to rest

Since Adrian was famous, it didn’t take long for his scandal to blow up. His fans especially played a huge role in sharing the news about his plane crash and how Chen Wei from the Royal group lied to him and tried to get married to him despite knowing he was married. When Adrian pressed charges for being drugged and attempted murder against Chen Wei, the internet was in an uproar again. Despite the positive response that led to the political influence of the Royal group to back off from the case, Adrian got some backlash from his anti-fans. They flooded social media with posts about theories of what they thought transpired between Adrian and Chen Wei. "So, y'all believe Adrian Carter had lost his memory and was manipulated into staying with another woman? Do you think this is a movie where the male lead gets amnesia? The dude probably just cheated and after he got caught, he pushed the blame on the poor woman. We know how it goes." "He married an ordinary woman and had a chan

Chapter 184~ Augusto's surprise

Now that Adrian's issue was resolved and Henry Ford returned to the city, Diego could finally settle his affairs and leave for Redwood City. He knocked on Henry's office door and walked in before placing an envelope on Henry's desk. Henry glanced at the envelope on his desk. The words ‘resignation letter’ were what caught his attention. He glanced at Diego Montero and asked, “What is this? Don’t I pay you enough? Is that why you’re leaving? Are you protesting for me to increase your salary?” Diego gulped, feeling uncomfortable. He scratched the back of his neck and replied, “Actually, I have no choice. I’m going back to my hometown to help with the family business.” Henry arched an eyebrow. He remarked, “So, you’ve finally made a decision? I thought you would run away forever.” Diego smiled and said, "I never thought this day would come either but I have found someone I want to protect with everything in me. I can't let her down." "Have you proposed to her yet?" Henry asked

Chapter 185~ Being caught unawares

"Yolanda! Princess, wait... let me explain!" Diego exclaimed desperately as he followed Yolanda who was adamant about leaving. "I didn't know she was alive and my brother knew I had a woman. He shouldn't have brought her here." However, Yolanda kept rushing down the cobblestone driveway in her high heels. Her heart was beating so fast and loud like a drum that it became deafening to her ears. Tears found themselves rolling down her eyes and she couldn't be bothered to wipe them off. "Leave me alone, Diego... I feel like I'm intruding," Yolanda replied through sobs. Her heart squeezed painfully. Dahlia's words echoed in her ears, sounding like a broken record. "I've been waiting for you to return, Diego. We promised to love each other for eternity after all." When they walked into the mansion, they found Dahlia Mulla waiting for Diego in the living room. She immediately jumped to telling Diego how she had missed him and how they were meant to get married. Since Diego was caught

Chapter 186~ What I did

When Diego heard that his brother had been shot, he didn’t hesitate to look for him. “How’s his condition? Where are his bodyguards? How could they not know that an assassin had infiltrated the premises?” Diego questioned the housekeeper. The housekeeper gulped and beads of sweat coated her forehead. She appeared to be nervous about something. However, Diego was too worried about his brother to notice. He might have been annoyed with his brother but he still loved him. Augusto was family after all. Pride once got in the way and Diego wasn’t able to attend his father’s funeral. A mistake he regrets every day. It would destroy him if he lost his only brother, regardless of what conflict he had with him in the past. When Diego turned into the hallway leading to Augusto’s study, he quickly instructed the housekeeper, "Call the family doctor. Do it quietly.” Going to the hospital with a gunshot wound would be suspicious and making noise about the attack would alert the Montero C

Chapter 187~ Marry her then

At first, Diego really felt bad about what happened to Dahlia. He even thought of calling Henry Ford to ask if she could see one of the Ford Paradise Hospital’s skilled therapists since she had gone through hell and probably suffered from PTSD. However, from the corner of his eyes, he saw her smile so smugly he wanted to throw up at her sick expression. How could she smile when talking about such a painful experience? Diego suspected that something was fishy about Dahlia’s story. Not even someone who was thick-skinned could smile after opening up about their traumatic past unless they were crazy. He left the study, clenching his fists as a sense of suspicion grew within him. Something was definitely off… What really happened five years ago? Diego waited for a few minutes to give Dahlia time to dress up and went back to the study. He wanted to ask her more questions and clarify his suspicions. However, just as he reached the study, he heard his brother’s voice. Diego’s mind

Chapter 188~ A proposal at midnight

Diego didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He glanced at Dahlia and asked, "Why did you come back? If you had stayed hidden, at least I would have had good memories of you... but now... you disgust me." "D-Diego... that's not true. Your brother forced himself on me. That's why I faked my death. I was so ashamed-" "Shut up! Aren't you tired of scheming? Do you think I can believe you over my brother? My brother came from the same womb as I... we may fight and not speak to each other for years, but I know he would never do anything to hurt me," Diego's words sliced through the air like shards of ice, cutting Dahlia's words in the middle. "That's not true... why did you leave? It's because you hated your family!" Dahlia answered confidently. She wasn't convinced that Diego had moved on. He loved her very much and could do anything for her... how could his love for her end so quickly? Diego shook his head. He replied, "I left because I was hurt that they didn't want to avenge yo

Chapter 189~ Finally found my missing rib

Diego Montero realised something. He loved Yolanda with his all. Whether he waited weeks or months to propose, she would still be the woman he would want to spend the rest of his life with. Yes, they didn't know what tomorrow may bring. But who ever knows? Everyone jumps in without knowing the obstacles they will face in the future. If there's anything he learnt from his former boss, Henry Ford. It's that as long as you had your loved one by your side, any other problem felt like a passing breeze. After talking to his brother, Diego asked the housekeepers to help out with the proposal. Of course, the housekeeper who had helped Dahlia was fired. In the Mafia, loyalty was everything. Diego instructed the bodyguards to control the drones he had shipped over earlier before they travelled. Augusto helped too. He stood downstairs near the drones, waiting for midnight so that they could control the drones to help Diego propose. Yolanda woke up and they had dinner outside on the balc

Chapter 190~ Take my time

Diego carried Yolanda into the cabin. Yolanda's eyes grew wide as she looked around. If she thought the outer form of the cabin was dreamlike, the inside was like paradise itself. The wooden cabin wasn't big. It was like one big room with a small kitchen in the corner, a huge bed in the center, a bubbling hot tub on the left near one of the windows and a bathroom on the right side. The bathroom area had an enclosure for privacy. Not only did they have several acres of land to themselves, but they were surrounded by maple trees with fiery red leaves which could be seen through the huge windows. The whole place was giving "leave the world behind vibes". It offered a perfect blend of romance, peace and refreshment for the newly married couple. "Are we still in our family's estate?" Yolanda asked and Diego smiled. He loved especially the way she used the word 'our' in her question. Sliding an arm around Yolanda's waist, Diego pulled her closer and then put her at his front bef
