Adam went to the abandoned house by himself, his mind consumed with guilt over the terrible deed he had committed. He had killed Annalia's family and knew he could never make amends for his actions. As he walked through the darkened halls of the empty house, Adam could feel the weight of his guilt pressing down on him. The memories of that fateful night played over and over in his mind, tormenting him with the knowledge of what he had done. He had thought that killing Annalia's family was the only way to protect his father from the danger Marcel posed, but now he knew that he had been wrong. The guilt of his actions was overwhelming, and he felt as though he could never be forgiven. But still, he continued through the abandoned house, searching for her. This is the only way he could do to Annalia after what he had done to her. Perhaps, he thought, if he could find some way to atone for his sins, he could finally find some peace. As he walked, his mind raced with thoughts of what he
Marcel was swift on his feet and managed to break free, fleeing from the scene with all his might. As soon as Marcel broke free and attempted to escape, Don and Silas sprang into action, pursuing him with all their might. They were equally quick to give chase, At the same time, they gave orders to Adam's men to prepare for Marcel's capture, instructing them to secure the area and prevent him from running. “Delatorre! Don’t you ever think of escaping from us!” Don shouted using the horn speaker. With the police close behind him and Don and Silas closing in from either side, Marcel's options were limited. He looked around frantically, searching for any means of escape, but it was clear that he was trapped. As he realized that he had nowhere left to run, he slowed down and eventually came to a stop, panting heavily. Despite Marcel's attempts to outrun his pursuers, his luck had run out, and he was apprehended by the officers alongside Don and Silas. It was clear that his attempted esca
Adam waited anxiously for hours outside the operating room, his mind racing with a thousand different scenarios. Finally, the door swung open, and the doctor emerged, looking exhausted.Adam approached the doctor nervously and asked, "Is she okay?"The doctor looked at him for a moment before replying, "Yes, she is. But there were some complications during the surgery. We managed to resolve them, but it was touch and go for a while there."Adam felt a wave of relief wash over him as he heard the doctor's words. Knowing that Annalia was okay and that the surgery had gone well lifted a heavy weight off his chest. He had been so worried during the long hours of waiting, fearing the worst, but now he felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders."Thank goodness," he said, his voice shaking slightly. "I was so worried."But now until Adam saw how the doctor's face turned serious; Adam's heart skipped a beat. "There's something else I need to tell you.” The doctor said, his tone gra
Adam didn't realize that he had fallen asleep and thankfully the nurse woke him up. He is not allowed to stay inside. When Adam got out, he immediately saw Don and Silas sitting on a bench. Adam couldn't look at them because he was so ashamed and sorry for what he did."Adam," Silas called him. "What happened? What did the doctor say?”The three of them looked at each other before Adam glanced at Annalia from the outside."She's pregnant. 2 weeks," Adam softly said. He knew Don and Silas already knew that that's why he didn't expect a reaction from them. Adam looked back at Don before lowering his gaze to surprise the two."What, Adam? What happened? Why is she lying there?” Don continuously asked."She had surgery because of the internal bleeding caused by force trauma," Adam started explaining. He can hear them cursing Marcel while Don punched the wall beside him. Adam continued speaking, "She didn't have a pulse when I saved her and brought her here to the hospital, but they manage
Present… Two months had passed since Annalia's awakening, and during that time, she had made remarkable progress in her recovery. Her physical wounds had healed, and she had regained her strength and vitality. With the help of physical therapy and regular check-ups with her doctors, she was well on her way to returning to her old self. Adam, Silas, and Don had been by her side every step of the way, providing emotional support and encouragement. They had all but put their lives on hold to focus on Annalia's recovery, and it had paid off. They were proud of her progress and knew that she was a fighter. On the other hand, after spending some time in Switzerland, visiting the gravesite of his dear friend who had passed away, Adam was excited to return home to the Philippines. Although the trip had been emotionally difficult, it had also given him a sense of closure and peace. As he packed his bags and prepared to leave, he thought back on the years he had spent in Switzerland, struggl
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen! The arrival of the evening's brightest star has been long-awaited. Let us all give a warm welcome to our cherished Annalia Davis!" While waiting for the Limousine to open, Anna adjusted her furry scarf showing her exposed collarbone. Anna's two years working as an actress were never an easy ride for her. She had to empower herself with a great deal of material to qualify for this position in the showbiz industry. However, the most crucial thing in this profession is displaying herself in front of a crowd bursting with flashes from cameras, dressing graciously, and simply revealing what she has to showcase. "Are you ready?" Donovan asks Anna, his voice proud and beaming. Anna cast a glimpse at him before returning her sight to the crowd outside the Limousine. I was never born unprepared. This period of my life has been waiting for me, and now it has begun. She hears the door open and close as Don hops out of the car. Don pulled up in front of her
A few whiles after Don and Anna entered the hotel room, the event began. Purely because of Annalia, many politicians and celebrities attended the event. Many Filipinos are currently watching on their televisions and the internet for Annalia Davis as they eagerly anticipate this momentous day in her life. It was regarded as the highest-grossing movie of the entire year after her film with the most well-known American actor, Logan Herman. Anna became the most coveted and adored actress in the industry. And now that this event has taken place, her fans and even the majority of Filipinos are looking forward to learning more about the successful young actress' upcoming and recent feats.Her manager, Mr. Santiago, was also in attendance. The connections of the one and only successful businessman in the nation are one of the benefits Anna has gained from holding her position in her acting career. When she was given a chance to work with Logan Herman, she was still a novice actor, but because
Following her "socializing" with Lorel, Anna returned to their hotel room. That woman will constantly make every effort to discredit Anna, but she will never succeed. She distinctly recalled Lorel's words to her;"A rookie who managed to have a chance to work with Logan Herman...but not because of talents and skills. Instead, connections. How spectacular, they say," Lorel said with mockery. Anna rolled her eyes. Due to her so-called luxury-of-having-no-skill-other-than-money, many badly want to pull her down. Anna doesn't even give a damn about it because she knows well than anyone that she has the talents. And given how swiftly her career blossomed, although she was a rookie, those individuals are just threatened and insecure. What a pity.Lorel added, sounding extremely petulant and...a loser. "You only rose high due to connections, Anna. Remember that. After all, I'm still better than you." Annalia has never given a damn that she is an experienced actress. The fact that she is a ve
