Chapter 101

Joyce's POVI didn't realize I had blurted out my feelings until I saw the flabbergasted look on his face. A stab of regret pierced my heart, causing severe despair. I couldn't face him at that moment, so when I took hold of the opportunity and dashed out, ignoring Daniel's questioning gaze.I didn't know where I was heading. All I wanted was a place far from Adrian's office. I thought of going to check up on Rafael, but then I spotted a familiar figure standing beside the vending machine. I walked closer to get a clearer view of this person."Michelle!" I screamed in excitement, my lips curved in a relieved smile.She stopped what she was doing and turned to identify the person who had interrupted her work. Upon seeing me, her face softened, her brow relaxed, and a silent relief appeared on her face, as though my presence had lifted an unseen weight she had been bearing."My goodness, Joyce! What are you doing here?" Michelle exclaimed, walking up to me."Well...." I trailed off, fai

Chapter 102

Natalia's POVI slowly opened my eyes, my mind groggy. A wave of dizziness and nausea washed over me as I tried to lift my head. My gaze fluttered around the unfamiliar hospital room as the scent of antiseptic wafted through my nostrils."Where am I?" I muttered my voice hoarse and my head spinning.Gradually, memories of my visit to a hospital, my conversation with Manuel, and the news I had received flooded my mind, increasing the throbbing pain in my head.I let out a painful groan, using all the strength left in me to press the green button by the bedside. After what seemed like an eternity, the door creaked open and the nurse who had taken my blood samples earlier walked into the room. She held a tray with a glass of water on it."How do you feel?" she asked, approaching me.I brushed off her question and grabbed the glass of water, downing it all in one gulp. I exhaled heavily, feeling the instant relief on my patched throat."Where's Dr. Manuel?" I asked, my voice low and impat

Chapter 103

Adrian's POV"You're in love with her!!" Miguel exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "¡Anda! Dime la verdad!""No, I'm not!" I vehemently denied it. "¡Por supuesto que no! I'm only attracted to her.""Is that so?" Miguel questioned with a sarcastic tone, giving me his signature arched brow. "You're lying to yourself, big boy. From the way you speak about her, it's obvious you're in love with her. Uff...I don't know what to say, man.""Yeah," I sighed. "I'm confused too. I haven't felt this way before.""Wow, Adrian. Who would have thought eh? Playboy billionaire got bitten by the love bug? It's true love changes people," Miguel exclaimed, his lips curved in a smirk."When was the last time you expressed your feelings to anyone like this? You should indulge these feelings... I'm really interested in seeing the new changes it would cause.""Shut up, Miguel" I snapped, slightly irritated at his truth. "What if she doesn't feel the same way I do? That bastard called Gabriel made

Chapter 104

Natalia's POV It was not difficult finding the Cruz Estate, since it seems the cab I had ordered had been to the place a couple of times. I was stopped at the checkpoint and had my body and bag checked with a metal detector. I felt it took almost forever before the security guard decided to let me in. It seemed the estate had its own personal cabs, so I ordered one and gave the driver the exact description I got from Barrio. The driver looked a bit taken aback at first, but he agreed to take me there since I was paying. I slipped into the back seat and stared out the window, lost in thought as we drove in complete silence. Finally, the car slowed, and he pulled up in front of a large, imposing gate. I alighted from the car, staring at the gate with my mouth agape. It was the first time I was seeing a gate as large as the one protecting Gabriel's mansion. There was no security guard at the post so I assumed the estate was heavily guarded since the house had no security measures put

Chapter 105

Madrileno's POV "Answer me!" I fired, my blood boiling with seething rage. I really wasn't expecting such news from her, but I should have known such a thing was inevitable. We had fucked without protection, so the pregnancy wasn't supposed to be a shock. It was unplanned for, but with each passing second, I was beginning to welcome the idea of being a father. The only person I needed to deal with at the moment was Natalia. Knowing her for so long had made it easier for me to understand how dark her heart was. She could tread on thorns to get what she wanted. Asking her such question was unnecessary. I mean, I should have just told her what I intended to do, but a large part of me wanted to hear what she felt, and the reply I got, shook me to the core. "Fine! I want nothing to do with this child!" she yelled, her breath ragged. "I don't want this bastard in my tummy. I want to get rid of it." "Did you just call my child a bastard?" I bellowed as the last string of my patience thr

Chapter 106

Mysterious man's POV"What brings you to my humble abode, Flynn?" I asked my my eyes narrowing on the young figure standing before me in the dimly lit room.We only met when we had something important to discuss, and I was eager to hear what he had to say."It's been a while, jefe. Aren't you just too humble to call this huge mansion a humble abode?" Flynn replied, his tone full of praise. "I bring relevant news to you, boss. It's something you would love to hear."My ears quivered with excitement. "Does it concern the young brat I asked you to watch out for?""Absolutely, jefe," Flynn responded with a confident tone."Out with it!" I urged, impatience clear in my tone.Flynn cleared his throat and spoke. "The young man we speak of actually has an heir- a male child.""What?!" I exclaimed, standing up from my high leather chair. "Are you sure of what you're saying?""I'm certain he has a son, boss," Flynn replied. "I personally checked the paternity test result myself and it was pos

Chapter 107

Adrian's POVIt was hard to shake thoughts of the spontaneous dinner date with Joyce that was still to come, so I forced myself to focus on something productive to keep my mind occupied.A few hours ago, I called Javier and assigned him the task of monitoring Elizabeth and her investigator's movement. I hadn't disclosed my plans to him, but it wasn't hard convincing him since we had a common goal in my mind- to protect the innocent people who had nothing to do with our strife.I glanced over at Joyce, her focus still fixed firmly on her computer, unchanged since our last exchange. There was no way her heart wouldn't be troubled knowing her life and Rafael's were in danger. I really wanted to assure her that everything was going to be fine."Joyce, you..."A light tap on the door cut me off. I was a bit irritated by the interruption, but I had to let the person in.It was Claire, the new secretary we had hired."Good day to you, sir" she greeted politely."What do you want, Claire?" "I

Chapter 108

Natalia's POVI hadn't felt this oppressed for a very long time. But now, Madrileno had made me understand the feelings of those I had hurt or put in a tight spot.I gritted my teeth and clenched my fist in rage as I recalled the moment he had shown me the mini recorder. He was the last person I expected to do such a thing, but letting my guard down made me realize how dangerous it was to underestimate people, especially those you had offended. ¿Cómo pude ser tan estúpida?I stood by the roadside, waiting for the cab I had ordered. I was glad I had left his home immediately. The environment was pleasant to a normal person, but to me, it was suffocating. I felt like I was being strangled by an unknown force.The hooting of a car horn grabbed my attention. The driver pulled down the glass window and peeked through."Ma'am, are you going or not?" he asked."Yes," I muttered in reply.I hastily opened the car, got in, and closed it. The moment the ride began, I went right back into my th

Chapter 109  

Luis' POVThanks to my wretched fiancee, I was here, pride in tatters, groveling before one of the most influential men in the business world, the man I despised the most.I suddenly received a message from one of the bodyguards I had assigned to protect her. It seemed they were smart enough to recognize Adrian immediately, but that dumb lady had acted without her brain.My relationship with her could never be considered a genuine one because I had always known she was only with me for my wealth and status, but still, I valued the benefits I received from her.At first, I wanted to ignore the issue and let her spend a day or two in the cell, but then, my mother reminded me of the damage it could do to our family’s image if word spread.

I had managed to speak to Ligia after giving the warden a small tip. In

Chapter 110

Adrian's POVI wished I could gouge out the eye of that pervert called Luis. He had the nerve, and the guts to leer openly at Joyce, which only fueled my resolve to hit where it would hurt most; claiming a portion of his company’s shares.The young man was so naive that he couldn't even make decisions for himself. I was right when I said his father would have agreed to my proposal without wasting much time. The man was a shrewd and cunning business man according to the information I had gathered from my sources. Too bad his son didn't have even a tip of his wisdom.I was waiting patiently, watching his gestures as he talked to his father on the phone.Five percent was too little. If I could get the chance to raise the stakes, I would definitely do so."Mr. Lopez, are you done making the call?" I asked the moment I saw him place his phone back into his pocket.He tilted his head slowly to look at me and replied. "My father is on his way to settle things with you.""Oh, is that so?" I q
