The Battle For Love And Survival

“I am afraid that this place might not be safe for her, little one,” Dr. Emiliano told Darien. “Keep in mind that a few days ago, some intruders broke into this small house to attack her. Who knows what would have happened if you had not been there?” The elderly man sat on a wooden chair in his small study area, unsettled, because he knew the lady Darien was about to place in his care was in grave danger.“You have nothing to worry about,” Darien reassured the elderly man. “I have got everything under control. My men will always be available to protect you from any threats.”"I do not require your protection, Darien! Let me be!” Jeri abruptly snapped. "If I die, I die; if I live, so be it. I do not need you again. Can't you see it?”She detested Darien so much that Jeri never wanted to see him again because she was so furious.“I appreciate everything you did for me,” Jeri continued. “ But it's time we go our separate ways. It's cle

A Secret That Could Destroy Everything

“How dare you, Freya!” Darien raged as he pointed his index finger at the tall and slender woman sitting on a couch with her legs crossed and a glass of red wine in her hand. She was dressed in a black knee-length dress and sat on the couch, sipping her wine. Her hair was dark and glossy, and her eyes were piercing blue, giving the impression of a spoiled brat.“Has it gotten to the point where you are sending thugs to attack someone just because you want me to marry you, huh?” Darien yelled at her, but there was no trace of fear in her.Freya smiled evilly and dropped her drink on the four-square transparent glass table set in front of her. She sighed as she dropped the drink, dropped her leg, and stood up. She stood before Darien with her arms folded above her chest, staring at him from head to toe.Darien became increasingly enraged as she stared at him with her large dark blue eyes.She burst out laughing and lightly c

Jeri's Quest For Answers

“Here you are, little one.” Mrs. Lucinda smiled evilly as she stepped into the small house that Jeri had been calling home for the past month." Do you think you can get away from me, huh?"Jeri, who was breastfeeding her child, quickly jumped out of her seat, clutching her child to her chest and lowering her gaze to the ground.“Good… good day, ma'am,” Jeri stammered, avoiding eye contact with Mrs. Lucinda, who entered Dr. Emiliano's small house after being informed by a spy where Jeri lives.Darien, on the other hand, offered to build a new house for the old man as a token of appreciation, but he declined, stating that he was content with his small home.“Shut up, witch!” Mrs. Lucinda cursed through gritted teeth, glaring at Jeri, who shivered at the sound of her voice. “Because of you, my son no longer respects me. He brought you here because he thought I could not find you, right? Well, I guess he forgot that the same men who protect him a

A Desperate Attempt At Freedom

Jeri gave Darien a deadly glare as he approached them.“You want to know what is going on, right?” Dr. Emiliano asked Jeri one last time, unconcerned about Darien's presence.“Yes.” Jeri rolled her eyes.“Walk up there, pick a book, go through it so you would know what's happening in the world today,” the old man pointed at his small library that was positioned in one angle of the small house.Dr. Emiliano disappeared from the living room, leaving Darien and Jeri behind, without another word. He did not even seem happy.“Umm…,” Darien scratched his scalp awkwardly with his left hand akimbo. He inquired." Please explain what is going on here. I do not seem to understand what is happening."“Tell me, Darien. In what way is this elderly man related to you?” She glared at him, her face displaying pure rage as she raised her voice.“Gosh,” Darien exhaled, clasping his palms against his face.“ How many times do I have to tell

A Dangerous Game

Jeri went into her room and locked it from inside, preventing Darien from entering. She leaned against the door and wept bitterly. It was not her intention for their relationship to end this way, but she believed it was best for everyone.She has suffered her entire life, and she cannot afford to continue doing so when she can help herself out of her misery.On the flip side, Darien repeatedly banged on the door, calling for her to open it, but she refused. After being exhausted, Darien could not help but join her in bitter tears over their predicament. She was the only woman who captured his attention at first glance. It would be painful to see the woman he loves wholeheartedly walk away because of his family members.Darien vowed to make things right, even after discovering that he was to blame for Jeri's mother's death. He believes he owes her a lot, and he would never let her go just like that.Jeri stood up and b

The Plot To Eliminate Jeri

Before Aysel could leave Darien's room, her phone began to ring, calling for her attention. She gazed at the phone on the bed, trying to figure out who was calling her.“Aunt Clara,” Aysel mumbled as she took the phone from the bed. Clara was an old friend of Mrs. Lucinda, Darien's mother, and the older sister of Aysel's mother, Margaret. She was a spinster who hoped to marry someone someday.Mrs. Lucinda communicated with Clara because she needed help finding a wife for her son so she could complete her mission. However, Clara chose her niece, Aysel, to be her old friend's daughter-in-law because she knew her old friend got married to a billionaire, which implies that her son is a billionaire heir as well.Even though Aysel was an adopted child, Clara considered her to be her niece.“Hello, darling… How did it go? I was expecting to hear from you, but you did not call,” Clara's voice echoed from the phone after Aysel

Before she could find an apartment to rent with the little money she had left, Jeri took a taxi to a nearby hotel to stay for a few days.Darien had been paying her own and her child's bills for the past month. Darien was paying not only their bills, but also Dr. Emiliano's.Despite this, Darien never fails to provide her with extra money to purchase whatever she desires, including items she may not want to tell him about.Jeri stepped out of the cab as soon as it came to a halt, carrying her child in a blue baby carrier basket.She took a deep breath and looked up at the massive hotel that stood tall right in front of her. She was not just admiring the beauty; she was also wondering if her money would be sufficient to lodge for more than one night and still get her an apartment.“Your luggage, ma'am,” the cab driver announced as he placed Jeri's bags next to her. “And thank you; the funds have been received.”With no words, Jeri

An Unwelcome Encounter

“Look who we got here,” said the young man as he rubbed his palms against each other as he covered the space between him and Jeri. Watching the young man approach her and lustfully bite his lower lip, Jeri, who had been standing motionless since entering the house, started to shiver. She looked down quickly, swallowing hard as she made a concerted effort to keep her cool. “Huh?” The young man was taken aback when he laid eyes on Jeri's child. “ Well, I do not think having a child will prevent us from making out. Will it?” The young man spoke, attempting to hold Jeri's jaw, but she retreated a few inches. “I did not come here because of you, Henry,” Jeri snapped, unable to bear Henry standing so close to her. Henry was one of the young men who fell in love with Jeri at first glance. However, when she was asked out to be his girlfriend, she declined. Henry tried everything he could to make Jeri his girlfriend, but he failed and had no choice but to give up. And now she is at Hen

Henry's Threats And Sophia's Defiance

“I guess you are done preparing so we can start moving, Jeri,” Sophia said to Jeri as she stood at the entrance. “Please give me a few minutes, and I will be out. I had to prepare both myself and my child, you know,” Jeri replied, attempting to finish dressing and join Sophia, who had been waiting for her for the past ten minutes. “All right, I will be downstairs waiting for you,” Sophia said, quickly disappearing from the living room door. Just as Sophia had vanished, Henry appeared out of nowhere and walked into Jeri's room without knocking. He opened the door quickly and closed it again, his gaze falling on the half-dressed lady he had hoped to spend some quality time with on the bed. “Damn!” Jeri exhaled angrily, quickly picking up her towel from the bed and wrapping it around her chest. “How dare you come into my room without knocking?” She barked and pointed her index finger at him. Henry stood with his hands akimbo, giggling as he scanned Jeri from head to toe, a million

A Twist Of Fate

Even as she hugged and exchanged greetings with Sophia, Freya could not take her gaze away from Jeri, wondering if this was the Jeri she had been praying to meet. “I rang your line yesterday, but you didn't pick up,” said Sophia to Freya after they broke the hug. “I apologize for that, Sophy. I was so occupied yesterday that I didn't notice your call. Is there any problem?” Freya responded, still trying to figure out why Jeri was there. Has Darien told Jeri anything about her? “Hmm… well…” Sophia sighed and shifted her gaze away from Freya to Jeri." Here's an old friend who needs help. So, I thought you were the only one who could help, so I brought her. I wanted to notify you before coming here, but you did not answer the phone." “I see,” Freya said, reaching out her hand for a handshake with a lopsided expression." Hi, my name is Freya Elias. It is a pleasure to meet you." ‘Even though she dresses decently like every other staff member I have seen so far, she is still giving
