MIRANDA My eyes remained closed until the plane landed. Afterward, Hazel carried me bridal style and descended the plane.My arms circled his neck securely and I was really tempted to open my eyes. Nevertheless, I controlled myself because I did not want to ruin Hazel's hard work.After walking for a while, he finally stopped walking and I realized we had arrived at our destination.I waited until he placed me on the ground and said, "You can now open your eyes."I opened my eyes, adjusted to the light, and looked around."Wow!" I exclaimed."Do you like it?" He asked.I nodded, "I love it."It was a beautiful island, there was a blue sea to my right and a beach house to my left. But what attracted me the most was the table which had been set up. It was so beautiful and from the decorations, one would think that we were about to get married. Two chairs had been placed on both sides of the table and there were white flowers and white curtains designed above it. An array of food and

MIRANDA "It's not that I want to take anyone's life," Hazel explained. "The gun is just for protection, okay? Don't think too much about it.""Alright then, I guess since you have protection and I'm with you, I have nothing to be afraid of." I beamed."Of course, you have nothing to be afraid of," he concurred. I kissed him again and waved him goodbye.I watched until he got into his car and drove off. As I began heading to my class, I heard Mel's voice calling my name and I stopped. She ran to me and said, "Hmm... Someone is in love and so happy.""Yeah, you can say that again," I replied."How does it feel to not have an impostor for a husband?" She asked.I chuckled, "Well, it feels amazing. Everything between me and Hazel is so perfect that... I don't know, I'm a little scared.""With good reason," replied."With good reason?" her words surprised me. She nodded, "Yes. You haven't told him about Princess and the fact that she's not really his daughter. Isn't it?"The smile on m

MIRANDA I heard my mom sigh over the phone, "Well, I guess you're telling the truth. The Miranda I know is not a thief and I want to believe she hasn't changed.However, if you keep doing this, even though he doesn't say anything, your husband might not be happy about it. Don't send any more money to me, okay?""I will send, no matter what you say, Mom. I will keep sending money to you. If I don't send it to you, who would I send it to? What's the use of being married to such a rich man, If I cannot spend the money he gives me? Anyway, I recently traveled with him to Venezuela and we had the time of our life. It was so amazing. It was like my honeymoon.""Really? Come, did you get married to someone else over there or is it the same man you told me about?" My mom asked.I chuckled, "It's the same man, Mom. Hazel has changed. He's now caring, loving, and attentive. He treats me like a princess and makes me feel so special.""Really? Miranda, are you telling me the truth?" "Mom, I wou

HAZEL "Yes, I'm really very sorry.It was not our intention to kill him and we already informed the president about everything."I sighed, "Oh no, why didn't you tell me this ever since? Why did you keep this from me? You should have told me about Ramos' death the moment he died. Why didn't you tell me?""Calm down, calm down, Mr. Duke," the agent said. "I am so sorry. Is there a problem? I mean, shouldn't you be happy that he's out of the way?""No, I cannot be happy because there is a big problem. His grandmother has kidnapped my wife and she's threatening to kill her if I do not produce Ramos. What am I supposed to do now that he's dead?""Wow, I'm so sorry about what has happened, I had no idea. Listen, if you want, we can come over, okay? I'll gather the best men I can find after all the president gave his order for us to help you, we'll take care of it, okay?""No, no, there is no need for you to come all the way," I replied.Like Ramos once said, this is my turf, I will handle

MIRANDA The man walked toward me and raised his hand to slap me. However, I extended my knee and I kicked him in his balls. He staggered backward as he cried out in pain, his eyes turned red and he took off his belt, wanting to whip me with it. However, I warned, "If you dare to touch me, my husband will kill you."The man paused and stared at the old hag who gestured for him to hold on. She looked at me and laughed, "Feisty and talkative, I knew that night you were pretending to be so humble and meek. Do you know why I am stopping him right now? It is not because I am scared of your husband. It is because I want to get my grandson, first. Do you think that after getting my Ramos back, I will let you and Hazel scot-free? You are hoping your husband would kill my men? I do not plan to leave you both alive, sweetheart. Do you want to know a secret? I have snipers, twelve of them. I am sure you know who a sniper is, right?The location where we are going to meet, they are already the
