Semua Bab Wedded To My Enemy: Bab 61 - Bab 70

SEVASTIANCelestina trembled in my arms, her frail body pressing against mine as though she were trying to melt into the safety I offered. Her breathing was shallow, each inhale shaky, as if the air itself betrayed her.“Wife…” I called softly, my voice as gentle as I could manage. But she didn’t respond. Her lips moved faintly, forming words too fragile to carry far.“Please… stop…” she whispered, the sound so faint it nearly broke me. Her voice was drenched in fear, hollow, as though she were still trapped in whatever dark memory haunted her.I tightened my hold, not to confine her, but to offer the comfort she wouldn’t ask for. Her fragility was far from the Celestina I used to know.Celestina was bold, confident, and unapologetically cocky. She lived to challenge me, whether with her words or her piercing, defiant stares.And she refused to let me see her vulnerable side, always guarding herself against me. But today was different, far worse than I expected. She endured my pu

SEVASTIAN I felt a sense of relief settle over me now that I could see her fiery spirit returning. I couldn’t help but smile as I watched Celestina. Just a short while ago, she was trembling, lost in a terror I couldn’t fully comprehend. But now, the spark was back in her eyes, the confidence I’d grown to admire returning to its rightful place.“You’re blushing,” I teased when I noticed the redness on her cheeks, “Does that mean you’ve finally fallen under the spell of my unparalleled handsome—”Before I could even finish the sentence, something soft smacked me square in the face. I blinked and startled, as the pillow she’d just hurled at me tumbled onto the bed. Slowly, I lowered my hand, only to see her glaring at me, her cheeks a brilliant shade of red.“You’re damn annoying Ortega. Get out!” she snapped, pointing toward the door as if that would make me obey.I arched an eyebrow, amusement tugging at my lips. Her stubbornness was adorable, like a kitten trying to hiss at a lion

SEVASTIANI was quite shocked to see Celestina come to find me just to say thanks. As I silently watched her talking with Natasha, I could even help but to wonder if she heard anything. As I silently observe her while exchanging some conversation, it seems like she didn’t hear anything. Has she heard anything? But her tone was casual, her demeanor composed, but there was something beneath the surface an energy, a tension that I couldn’t ignore. “Kind?” Natasha repeated, her voice dripping with sarcasm.I wasn’t the only one questioning this unexpected visit, also Natasha found it suspicious about her sudden appearance. Natasha’s sharp gaze was locked on Celestina, doubt practically radiating from her eyes. She was always meticulous, always suspicious, and Celestina’s reasoning wasn’t convincing enough to fool her.“Well… you helped me,” Celestina replied, her voice soft as she fidgeted with her fingers.It was subtle, but there was unease. A slight tremor in her voice, the smalles

CELESTINAWhen Natasha left the room, I was about to follow her when suddenly Neo stopped me. His small fingers tugged at the fabric of my blouse, halting me mid-step. “Aunt Celestina…” he murmured, his voice so soft it was nearly swallowed by the quiet hum of the night.I turned back to him, my chest tightening at the sight of his bowed head, his shoulders slouched like he carried the weight of the world. His usual energy had fizzled into something small and fragile, and it tugged at a part of me I didn’t know existed until he came into my life.“Are you… mad at me?” he whispered, his words shaky and uncertain. “I’m sorry. I forgot… I forgot to keep our secret.”I glanced at the door where Natasha had just left, my urge to follow was too strong and insistent. However, the sadness in Neo’s voice pulled me back like an anchor. Whatever Natasha was up to could wait, I know that her sudden left might work to her advantage, giving her the opportunity to investigate my background, esp
