THE REMARRIED HEIRESS のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

CATALINAThat was the first. He called me by my name and not the nickname he made for me.Dante’s piercing gaze at Mrs. Yu made me panic and rise from my seat. He looks infuriated for some reason. It's obvious they don't have a good relationship.The corner of Mrs. Yu's lips lifted as she ignored Dante’s presence behind her and just enjoyed her iced tea.Dante walked to us with a big stride.“D-Dante–” However, he held my wrist and pulled me to the door. “Wait! Mrs. Yu–” The door shut, and I saw Mrs. Yu waving at me through the window, wearing a smile.She doesn't seem angry. Dante forced me to get in the car and leave the place.“Isn't it too rude to leave like that?” I scowled at him.He did not even acknowledge her presence. The same with Mrs. Yu. They were having a silent battle because of that expansion thing.“Don't meet her again.”“Why?” It took me a few seconds to realize what Mrs. Yu meant. “Does she want me to work with her?”“No,” he firmly stated. “Then why?”“What di

CATALINAUncle Mondo, Ethan, and the British guy Ben.I bet the latter.He was the only one who wanted to finish what he started weeks ago and the only one with a strong motive to hurt me.Based on the information I gathered from these employees, Ben was terminated because he didn't report to work for almost a week without permission. His reason? He is looking for his missing girlfriend. On the day Dad humiliated him, it was also the day his girlfriend's body was found. Unfortunately, she died while pregnant. Imagine the loss of two important people in your life. It was devastating and heartbreaking just to listen to the story. How much more if you actually experience it?But he's wrong here. Why did he take out his anger on me against my father? He even hurt my baby. Even if he says he didn't know, it still won't change the fact that he killed my child. I wish I had killed that stupid Ben instead.Frustrated, I messed up my hair as I couldn't do anything but get mad at the deceased.

CATALINA “I'M PREGNANT!!”The two words echoed in my head. Anger, confusion, and guilt welled up in me as I stared at Fiona, sobbing her heart out. I didn't know what to do, and without knowing, I lowered my gaze to her stomach.I stood up, fist clenching. My heart twisted in pain and my gaze softened. Before I could lash out at Fiona, Dante’s scent invaded the whole room. I felt his hands on my waist and thigh, lifting me in his arms, and we strode out of the room without a word.My mind went blank, my heart pain grew, and tears continued flowing down my face. I gripped Dante’s polo shirt tightly as I sobbed in silence.If… If I continued physically hurting her… She might have lost her child. And that made me no different from her, harming an innocent angel.Why does it have to be her?!***I woke up when my stomach grumbled. The sky was already pitch dark outside the window. Countless stars were blinking, shining brightly in the darkness. I was hoping one of them was my baby. A

CATALINA “What’s the name of the island?” I curiously asked as Abby and I paved the beautiful and comfortable road heading to the school.According to her, it's a walking distance from the village.“Isle of Marci.”Isle of Marci. Coming from Dante’s family name.I inhaled the cool air that gave me comfort. There is greenery everywhere, it’s so pure and fresh. Green paddy plants and colorful flowers blossomed around, bestowing scenic beauty to the road as if someone had spread colorful carpets alongside the road.“Is this island not exclusive for outsiders?” I raised my gaze and met the birds perched on the branches of trees, singing the chorus repeatedly over and over again.“This island is private and Mr. Marcellos has his own government. He ruled the community here, which has a population of almost a hundred individuals.”Basically, he’s the president and the king of his own island.“So this is not part of the United States of America?”I squatted to pluck a dried dandelion flower

CATALINAWhat if someone saw us?Before I could even react, he took off my shirt and pulled down my shorts together with my panties while I worked with my bra.I realized he didn't care about throwing away all of my hesitations. I reached his neck, pulling and kissing him back with all the force I could muster. He tasted like the ocean, salty but sweet. Our tongues tangled in a lovely dance, his hands roaming all over my body. He kissed down my cheek until he reached my neck. The tender brush of his lips and his hot breath drove me insane. Burning as they make contact with my neck. His hand ran through my hair as the kisses became harder and more urgent."Ahhh..." A moan escapes from my mouth.His other hand slides around my waist and pulls me close to him. He feathered kisses on my shoulders and in my hair. It was slow and soft, comforting in ways that words would never be.Our breaths mingled and I ran my fingers down his spine, pulling him closer until there was no space left bet
