Sariel's point of view I was standing there, drenched in water, when I shifted my gaze to the sky. It was a very calming experience to feel the raindrops gently stroking my cheeks. I extended my hand as if I were reaching for clouds in the sky. "Hi, daddy. I'm hoping you're all doing well there. Mommy and I will survive this chaotic life. Sana nandito ka pa rin, ano? Wala ka na nga tapos, wala rin si mommy. I miss you both. Daddy, kayo na po ang bahala kay Mommy, ah. Bantayan nyo po siya, while me? I'm fine, I'm going to be fine," a small whimper out of my lips. I can't control my emotions. I don't understand what I'm feeling. The only thing I did was pray that this excruciating suffering would come to an end as quickly as possible. How can I achieve my goal of being free? I want to be free. I set out on foot, heading toward the mansion. I don't care if the water drenches me. As I approached the entrance, I noticed that the girl I had seen was already inside, standing with a tow
Sariel's point of view It's chilly in here. On my forehead, I am beginning to feel dread. There is a demand for a thicker comforter. As I was ready to stand up, I noticed a rustling sound coming from within the restroom. Just wait. At this moment, I am the only person present in the room. How was that able to take place? Does it look like there's a cockroach inside? If there is, I am terrified of it. On the other hand, I have to get up and look for a blanket. I didn't mind the rustling that was going on inside, so I got up and headed to the closet.But before I can open the closet, there's another rustling, and this time it's different, like someone is in there, not a cockroach. I felt shivers running through my veins. My heart leaped in my throat, and I lunged for the vase.But it's too late. I can feel the barrel at my temple—cold and hard. "Do you believe you can be a princess living here?" "And so, you and that Ventura are lovers, ha," the man rasps, his voice ringing with famil
Maddox's point of view "Wala ka na talagang ginagawang tama at nang-iistorbo ka pa ano?" I hissed, gritting my teeth. Her mouth snapped shut. She then closed her eyes, like her temple throb got worse. "Just leave me here; I didn't ask you to take care of me," she spit back, twitching her nose. Damn. It wasn't my intention to ever say those words. I just can't, ugh. There are times when I completely lose my mind, and when I look at her, I can't help but think about my parents. Sariel was riding in the car with her Tito. It's true that I blamed her. And maybe I was fueled by my rage.Her explanation is something I want to hear, but I'm not ready. During the time span, she lied to me each and every time I pushed her. From what I think, she does not have trust in me. Kung sana sinabi niya sa akin ng maaga natulungan ko pa siya. I have her as a captive; if Finn Dixon is indeed responsible for everything, then she will be bound to remain with me until I am able to capture Finn Dixon.Nag
Sariel's point of view My father's murder in front of me is such a horrific nightmare that I can't bear to open my eyes and let the darkness rule me. It is painful to see him getting in the way. My uncle was laughing at us, as if he didn't think we were related or half the same family. Paulit-ulit nalang 'yung panaginip ko nang magkasakit ako. About halfway through my line, my eyes begin to well up with tears, and he consistently speaks to me in a manner that has the potential to shatter me into a million pieces. Sa mga tumatakbong segundo, minuto, at oras ay ganun kami palagi. He never failed to remind me of this, and he would always say, "Given that, I would love to see your pain. That is something that I will do anything in my power to make sure happens. You will experience the same kind of suffering as I did when my parents passed away. It is my goal to bring you down with me."How can he cause me pain with his words, yet at the same time, he will take care of me when I am sick
Third person’s point of view “You know the drill, Sariel, you have to fvcking get in Maddox’s company and mess everything up,” Sariel’s uncle Finn barks at her. Walang nagawa si Sariel kundi tumango sa instructions ng tito niya. She heaved a deep, long sigh. Maddox is Ventura’s eldest son and currently serves as the CEO of Ventura’s company. Lingid sa kaalaman ni Finn ay nagkakagustuhan na sila Sariel at Maddox. Sa sobrang busy nito ay hindi nito napansin na makailang beses nang nakita ang dalawa. Galit na galit si Finn kay Maddox because Maddox set him up by mixing Finn's products with fake stuff, causing Finn's client to cancel a huge deal in the past. Muntik nang mabangkarote si Finn dahil nakarating sa ibang kliyente ang balitang nagbebenta siya ng mga pekeng produkto. Sa kabutihang palad, nailigtas niya ang kanyang reputasyon, ngunit nag-aksaya siya ng maraming pera bilang isang resulta.Bilang isang paraan ng paghihiganti, nagpasya si Finn na nakawin ang kumpidensyal na data n
Third person’s point of view When Maddox arrived at the hospital, he ran straight to his parents, who were in the operating room. Maddox and Lowe were merely waiting outside at the OR, praying that their parents will be saved from the on-going operation. Lumipas ang apat na oras ay doon lang may lumabas na dalawang doctor sa operating room. The two walked toward the doctor with a sympathetic expression. “I’m sorry, we did everything we could to save the patient. Your mother has a traumatic brain injury. Severe head injuries from the force of a car accident caused your mother to suffer brain trauma, which may have resulted in fatal outcomes, and she did not make it.” Pagpapaliwanag ng doctor. Maddox expression hardened when he heard what the doctor said, he’s palms curled into fists, his knuckles shifting white. “What about my father?” Lowe is the one who asks the doctor since Maddox can’t seem to restrain his anger and is about to launch a punch at the doctor. The doctor went on
Third person’s point of view Nagsimulang dumagundong ang puso ni Sariel sa kanyang dibdib habang bumubuhos ang takot sa kanyang daluyan ng dugo. “Sariel.” Maddox’s powerful voice rings across the car. “Do you know that my parents are as cold as icebergs right now? It’s all because of you and your uncle, hmm?” Sinubukan ni Sariel na ibalik ang kanyang pagkakalmado at muling huminga ng malalim, ngunit ang tanging nakikita niya ay puro pula nang mariing niyang ipikit ang kanyang mga mata. “I- didn’t… That’s what my uncle’s all idea, wala akong kinalaman sa nangyari,” Sariel’s murmurs under her breathing. “The hell you’re talking? You’re with him inside the car, pwedi mo siyang pigilan pero hindi mo ginawa!” Maddox’s thunderous voice swirls again. He doesn’t care if the girl he’s yelling at right now is the same person he once cherished. Dahil sa babaeng ito ay namatay ang mga magulang nila. “For the fact that I don’t have to make any freaking choice! He actually held captive my mot
Third person’s point of view “Well, too late to explain. The damage has done. You can kiss my baby for me, come on.” Maddox teases her. “Don’t come near me… Please,” pagmamakaawa ni Sariel kay Maddox. As he sees the girl he once loved terrified, he seems to enjoy knowing that his simple punishment is effective. Maddox’s so enraged that it’s as if all memories of the two of them together have vanished from his mind, and what he sees in front of him right now is a total stranger. He ended up being pretty close to Sariel. Sariel freezes all over when Maddox allows the ball python to creep around her shoulder. As Maddox observed her, he couldn't tell if she was still breathing, ang nakikita lang niya sa mukha ni Sariel ay ang bumabalot na takot at gustong makawala sa alaga ni Maddox. “Please… Take it off. Nakikiusap ako sayo Maddy. I-i-can’t breath,” pagmamakaawa ulit ni Sariel habang tumataas baba ‘yung diddib niya na tila nahihirapan talaga siyang huminga. When Maddox heard someone
