"Oh, why? I'm just specifically telling you what happened, brother-in-law. Why do I sense you want to whack me in the face?"Roman purposefully taunted the man. The moment his fist reached his face, he would make sure Vincent had a place in hell.But his grin faded when Vincent grinned back. He grabbed his shoulder and then gently squeezed it."Don't drive me envious, brother-in-law. You know I've been vacant for weeks because I'm afraid to touch your sister. I don't want anything bad happens to our child."Is it the logic why he touched his girlfriend? Not a valid reason."Is that so?" he spoke out but in his gut, he felt hostility toward what he was doing.He vacated that vacant room and then proceeded straight back to their room. Roman's fist clenched as he watched over his retreating back with his furious eyes.Vincent paid back to their room and he saw Romana was already awake. Presently, Romana noticed her husband's annoyed face. It can even beat the vinegar model with his very
"I'm here!" Lalaine was wearing a broad smile when she returned home.No one responded so her smile vanished."Where did that old woman go?"She inspected the kitchen but Romana wasn't there."Sissy Romana?" She proceeded up to Romana's space on the second floor to look for her there but no one answered so she turned the knob of the door.It's unlocked. She entered freely."Sissy Romana?" Still, she didn't get any answer. No one else is there."Where is she?" She was about to leave the room but the sound of the running water from the lavatory stopped her."Are you there, Sissy Romana?" The woman didn't talk back. Forcedly, she knocked on the restroom door but there was still no response.Something was not right so she pushed the door even without the woman's authorization.Lalaine's eyes enlarged when she saw Romana unconscious on the floor of the shower room. Her face is pale and cold. The woman was unclothed and maybe fell while taking a bath."Sissy Romana!" she cried out as she ra
Lalaine convinced Romana of her falsehoods."Alright. Don't worry, this won't reach my brother, but make sure you're not cheating on him. If I find out you're doing something awful with another man, I'll put you and your man in the pit myself. Do we understand each other?"Romana has no idea that the man who sleeps next to her every night is the man who is her brother's rival with Lalaine."I'll shoot myself in the head if you catch me with another man," she confidently replied.In the end, Romana gets over what happened. She took the photograph from Lalaine's hand and then tore it into small pieces."So Roman won't see it again," she said.In Roman's company, a man was standing in front of it. He was wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses, and a facemask that was obviously hiding his face. He was about to enter the building but the security guard prevented him."Sorry, but you are not allowed to enter, Sir. Unless you can show your I.D. card."The guard's hunch was not good with his look
Roman raised his forehead. He decided to tell his sister the truth and was prepared for whatever the consequences might be."You heard it right, Romana. That girl and your husband are sneaking around every time we turn our backs! Those two have been cheating on us for a long time!"Her gaze turned to Lalaine. She was still on the ground and looked like a gentle sheep looking up at him."I-Is it true that you and Vincent have an affair?"There is no point denying what they did so, Lalaine nodded slowly."S-Sorry, R-Romana. I-I don't want to fool you two," she tried to wash her hands. There is a possibility that she can round their heads again.The sound of a loud slap echoed around again. Lalaine's face turned sideways due to the force of Romana's slap. Her face was numb because of what Romana did.Roman looked away. He was sorry for her but it is her fault so he has no intention of stopping his sister."You didn't want to but you did? I thought we were okay?! We talked, didn't we?!"L
Lalaine is ready to finish off the life of the woman who is the root of all her misery. Her outrage will just vanish if she sees Romana swimming in her own blood."Call all the Saints you know because this is the last day you'll see the world!"Roman clutched her sister tightly."H-Have mercy, Lalaine. H-Have mercy on the angel in her womb!""Mercy? Did they feel sorry for me then? No! Their lust prevailed more than sympathy! So, what reason do I have to feel sorry for that whore, huh?! Give me an excuse that can fix my mind!""Because you're a fair person, Lalaine! Your wrath just swallowed you up! That's why you became like that! Please, Lalaine . . . Let's just pass it on to a good conversation," Roman begged.Romana was quivering with fear, not for herself but for her child."Fair person?! Haha! Crazy!" she yelled back."Lalaine!"Lalaine lost her focus. A loud shout from the gate echoed. Vincent was coming. He took big steps towards where she is."Stay there!" she screamed threat
"What the hell are you doing, dickhead?!" he heard a man shout from the opposite house.She gasped as Vincent let go of her neck. She was about to suffocate. Luckily, someone confronted his evil husband."Do mind your own business! This is a family matter. Don't meddle in the lives of others!" Vincent responded arrogantly, looking evilly at the man.Romana sat weakly on the ground while holding her neck. She has not yet recovered from normal breathing.The corner of the man's lips lifted. "Even if it's a family issue or whatever, it's unseemly to hurt her! What does this woman have against your strength? Is that how your parents raised you? You don't know how to respect your elders?"At that moment, Romana looked up. Elder? She was slightly insulted but there was nothing she could do. It is real that she is already aged.She fully saw the man who owned the arrogant voice. He smirked as he glanced at Vincent with a fed-up look.His brushed-up haircut and two black earrings in both ears
"Why are you so grumpy? I'm just kidding," he said with a cheeky smile while swinging on the iron gate.The lines on her forehead deepened. How is he able to wisecrack? She nearly died recently. Also, they are not consort and have just met."Chill. I just want to inform you that the police you've been waiting for have arrived," he added.Only then did she notice the two police officers behind the man. Immediately, she went out to give a statement to them."May we know what happened here earlier, Mrs. Suarez?"She was sickened as the policeman called her by Vincent's last name."Can you please call me Miss Lichauco instead? Don't remind me that I'm wedded to that monster!" She opposed.The two policemen looked at each other and eventually shrugged. She revealed the whole incident and made sure she didn't miss even the tiniest details. She even told them how Evo rescued her.The man who became his momentary knight in shining armor also made a statement to the authorities. After asking t
She started the car again and drove down the road. She plans to head to a secluded place to hide.She needs to come up with a solid plan on how to break up with Vincent. She doesn't want what Vincent did to Lalaine happen to her that caused the loss of the woman's baby."Where are we going?" The voice that came from behind. She was startled. Fast, she footed on the brakes of the car and turned to the owner of the voice.Eyes widened when she saw Evo. She did not know how and when he entered the car."You again?! You are so annoying! How did you get in here?!"He just leaned forward in the chair and then yawned. "I don't have anything to do to entertain myself at home so I thought of going with you. Where are you going? Why is your luggage so big?" He asked a series of questions.She slapped her forehead due to excessive stress. If he doesn't stop tailing her, she might just drag him into trouble. It's her conscience when it happens."Get down! You're stressing me out! I already have
