Chapter 08
My body reacted to my emotions again. I felt my knees going weak when we arrived at Percival's place. It was not just about my emotions. It might also be because of my pregnancy.
"Katalina?" Percival examined me as he pushed the door close.
I have to tell him about my child. I told him that Cadmus left me because I'm infertile, and it seemed like it didn't bother him at all. Now, he has to decide if he can play the role of a father to my child as well.He has to know so he can decide whether to stay by my side or not. I'm sure it won't be much of a problem because there was no love between us. But, I still respect his opinion about the matter.
"Percival...I have to tell you something," I started.
"Katalina, you're turning pale. Let's go to my room." He went to my side and held my waist as he guided me toward his room.
He made me sit on top of the bed. He even fixed the pillow so I can rest my back there."You really ha

I couldn't answer Percival yet. I have to know how my parents will react to my annulment first. I know that they will not be against it once I tell them my reason. What I'm more worried about is Koen. I know he's been looking for a reason to start a fight with Cadmus. He might also get cautious of Percival after what happened to my first marriage. In the end, I know they would still respect my decision. I'm just worried about how it would affect their feelings. At the same time, I'm embarrassed by how my life turned out. My parents were so happy when I married Cadmus, they're probably frustrated after the last dinner we had. The thing about my parents is that they have always respected my decisions and opinions. Even when they arranged my marriage, they made sure that it was fine with me, that I wanted it too. He chuckled and leaned back on the sofa. "The meeting with the parents will have to wait, I suppose." "I'll still h

"Father, mom, please calm down; I'll explain everything," I said as my eyes implored my father to listen."Give me a moment. I-I'll be right back." I turned my back against my parents. But before I could leave the room, I stopped to say something.This was all Cadmus' fault. I don't want my parents to ever feel guilty for it."I wanted this marriage, and it fell apart. None of it was your fault," I said without looking back at them. I took another deep breath before I left the room.This was the first time that I ever walked so fast. The moment I stepped outside, the bright light shone on me but, my eyes were fixated on a man's moving figure."Cadmus!" My voice thundered across the place, which caused Cadmus to halt.It took him a moment before he turned to face my direction. I was quick to close the wide distance between us, and as soon as I got near, my hand flew to his face.

My father was already standing by my mother when I entered the office. He seemed to be trying to comfort her. Their eyes immediately landed on me, and I felt my body tense up. It was a topic I never wanted to talk about with them... So, as I looked them in the eyes, I could feel the pressure and embarrassment. So many thoughts came to mind. Like, where should I start, and how will they take this? Mom stood up, and desperation was visible in her eyes—she wanted answers. I knew she had a lot of questions after the last dinner we had with Cadmus' family. Father immediately placed his arms around mom as they walked closer to me. Looking at them made me realize how lucky they were to have found each other. Who would have thought that marriages are even harder to maintain than businesses? Maybe my idea of love came from my parents. They were both successful in the business industry yet still found love. I envy them--and it was

The evening arrived rather too early. All I could think about on my way to the Salazar's place was how everything between me and that family would end today. So, as I sat with Cadmus' parents at one table, I tried to hide how much I detested their son.When I looked at them before I took my seat earlier, they all seemed relaxed yet cautious of me. Because of that, I confirmed that Cadmus had already spoken to them. My eyes glowered at him for not letting me tell my parents first.I rolled my eyes. Of course, Cadmus wanted to make me miserable as if having an affair behind my back wasn't already enough.There was a long silence between the four of us. I did not bother opening up any topics before they did. Perhaps by then, they would realize how much this family has disrespected mine. Cadmus did not only hurt me, but he also did not honor the forged bond our families had. My parents respected him and trusted him—what he did was not just

Their family let Minty into their home after their son forced me out. By the time the realization sunk in, I was already too used to the feeling of betrayal. "This place doesn't suit you, Minty." My eyes pierced through her as I sauntered forward. Minty wore an innocent smile that could deceive any fool. She was wearing a white dress that flowed down to her knees. Her brown hair was tucked behind her ears; they were shorter than before. She used to copy me a lot, my hair included--but she seemed to be way past that phase. Her eyebrow slowly rose up, and who she truly is resurfaced. "I'm here to claim my place in this household," she taunted. "It's you who's not supposed to be here." "You've never changed. You're still a thief. You never learned your place, huh?" I retorted. "And you, the mighty Katalina Deveza, haven't changed at all as well. Too overconfident, too full of herself. Look where it got you?" The mockery in her

A sharp pain struck the lower part of my body after it hit a table. The phone fell on the floor and caused a loud thud. I paused for a moment as I realized that someone pushed me. "Katalina..." I heard Cadmus' voice. After I recovered from the shock, I stood up straight and brushed my hair back. I took a deep breath before I faced them, with flames in my eyes. I immediately searched for the one who pushed me, and my glare locked upon Minty's mother. "It was you who brought so much misfortune to my daughter! They bullied her and made her transfer because of you. You stole her boyfriend and got everyone to side with you. I almost lost Minty because of you!" The veins in her neck looked like they were about to pop as she screamed at me. "Hah..." My lips parted in disbelief. I'm not sure what was more shocking to me, the part where she thinks she can push me around and get away with it or the way she blamed me for something I didn't do. "The next

I didn't want to pry, so I chose not to ask Percival even though I was curious. She could be just an employee or someone insignificant.The soothing atmosphere inside his car made my eyelids heavy. I did not have any energy left after everything that happened. So, I had let my eyelids cover my eyes as I rested my cheek on the pillow around my neck.My hand went to my womb. I caressed it while my eyes were still closed."Does it hurt?" I heard Percival ask--worry was evident in his voice.My lazy eyes opened to look at him. I wasn't sure why I was caressing it as if comforting the little human inside me. I might be a bit worried after Minty's mother pushed me--although I'm sure the push wasn't hard enough to affect my pregnancy, I still scolded myself and swore that I would be careful next time.It was time to give myself a break, but my mind wasn't done with me. It reminded me of Cadmus' child with Minty. Will they have the family I've longed for?

"I didn't need you there," I said, a little doubtful of my own words.Percival chuckled—bitterly, as if he expected my response but still hoped to be wrong. He kept quiet for a minute before he heaved a sigh."What are you doing?" I asked when he pulled my hand toward him and began to examine my arm."I can't trust your words about not getting hurt. I heard a crash earlier. Did you drop your phone?" He asked, his eyes still busy with my arm. "They even yelled at you.""Stop that." I tried to pull away, but he was determined to check if I had any scratch on me.I sighed in defeat."They just threw words at me, and that's nothing. The crash you heard was because of Minty's mother. She pushed me once. That was it." I did not have the energy to engage in another argument, so I was willing to give him what he wanted."She pushed you? Was it hard?" His eyes immediately went up to mine."A little." I looked away. "But, I'm fine.
