ICE’S POV: He replied with a sigh, "I immediately killed the people who did that to you, and we rushed you to the hospital afterward." He paused and looked down sadly. "When we arrived at the hospital, the doctor told us that you were in critical condition." He added. "What about my children? Did I have a cesarean section for them to come out?" I inquired, and he nodded his head. "Yes, that is the way of the doctor to save you and our children, and the good thing is that they both have a strong attachment to you, so they weren’t in danger that much, but unfortunately, you are in a coma." He answered with a hint of sadness in his voice. Grandpa suddenly mumbled, "Due to this, I took you to the private hospital under our organization and gave you a new memory through our advanced technology there." This drew a glare from me, prompting him to look away guiltily. I rolled my eyes at seeing this. "Then what happened to my body?" I asked them curiously and side-hugged both Chronicles an
ICE’S POV:I saw myself in front of the church's door. I was looking around and saw many people who were smiling at me. They were wearing fancy clothes, but I didn't know any of them.My eyebrows furrowed in confusion, since whenever I turn my head to look, I can’t see any familiar faces, and I can’t even recognize what and where this place is.Where am I, anyway? Why am I here?"Empress?" A voice called out that sounded familiar to me, but I couldn't identify who it was.I followed where it came from and saw a woman who was smiling politely at me, but I couldn't tell if I knew her because her face was too blurry for me to see. However, the most confusing thing is that I can see her smile."Why are you just looking at me, Empress?" The girl asked, obviously laughing at my behavior since I wasn’t saying anything, but instead, I was busy observing her silently.I am trying to figure out if I can recognize her by looking at her hair, body proportion, and anything that can help me identif
ICE’S POV:"I want pork adobo! So yummy!" History suddenly chimed in.I nodded my head at him, "Okay, pork adobo it is." I replied with a chuckle as I saw how cute he was. "Anything else?" I asked again."I want pork sinigang, mom." Chronicles answered calmly, so I smiled and nodded my head at him as well.After that conversation of ours, they immediately dozed off. I just let them take a nap until we arrived at the house.Grandpa sounded the horn of the car, and I saw that Kiana came out of the house and opened the gate. Grandpa immediately got into the car and put it inside the garage. As soon as he turns off the engine, he immediately looks back at me."I will carry History and you will carry Chronicles," he told me gently, and I just nodded my head before opening the door on my side.I got out first and carried History in my arms, who was still sleeping. I think this kid is tired already. Grandpa also opened the door on History’s side and did the same.I immediately closed the do
ICE’S POV:I asked her as soon as she answered the call, "What did you discover? Any news?" "I have already found something about your twin, Empress," she answered with a serious tone.This was immediately picked up by my interest and somehow felt better knowing that we already had a lead on him."What did you find out about him?" I asked her again.She answered, "I immediately looked for your records from the hospital where you were born, and I searched that hospital to see if there were twins born on December 29, 1993." I was immediately eager to hear some more."What did you find out about that hospital?" I asked her.I heard him sigh, "I found that there is a twin who was born there, Empress." She answered and stopped for a moment before continuing, "However, I also found out that one of them is missing.""It was the boy, right?" I inquired, hoping that the twins she was referring to were indeed us.This answer made my chest pound. "Yes, the baby boy disappeared, and when I looke
ICE’S POV:“Then how about your husband?” Xercel asked while looking at me curiously.I shook my head, “I don’t know anything about him and I am not planning to get to know him at all. I am already content with having him as the father of my children and him doing his obligation to my children.” I answered lazily.Her lips formed an ‘O’ shape and she nodded her head in amusement, “Okay, but what are your plans about Iciest?” She asked again, which left me somehow speechless for how many seconds. My plans for Iciest? I don’t know either. I don’t know how to face him and tell him about my situation. People may tell me that I have a choice if I really want to. I can choose to have a divorce so that I can be with the person I love, but it wasn’t that easy for me. Marriage is sacred to me. Aside from that, I want my kids to experience having a complete family, although their real father is still nowhere to be seen. Yes, I will not be treating Gray as their father figure anymore because
ICE’S POV:However, I still choose to manage my other businesses instead of focusing on being a doctor. Now, I guess a hands-on mom of two and someone who needed to get her revengeYes, I am still not going to let go of this plan, not when I discover that they were somehow involved in my accident as well as the fact that I almost lost my children.I can’t let that slide. I fucking didn’t see my children when they were born, during their birthdays, and everything that I should have witnessed during their growth.But now, everything will be different. I will make sure of that.I told them, "Menudo is already cooked, babies." This made History clap both of his hands happily while smiling and looking at the pot. "Help me to prepare the table, please," I added while getting a bowl where I planned to put the menudo.I cook an extra portion as well, since we can just re-heat this later at night and maybe the four annoying creatures will like to taste this as well."Okay, mom." I heard Chroni
ICE’S POV:"Empress, are you okay?" I heard Jensen ask, which made me snap back to reality.I looked at them and saw that they were looking at me questioningly.I scoffed, "Of course. Just eat there while keeping your mouth shut since I am not in the mood right now. After you eat, go already, or you will all be late." I replied coldly and continued eating as well.I didn’t even notice that I was already spacing out again. Damn it! I had so many papers to work on last night, and I didn’t have that much time to sleep. I even stayed here in the living room so that I would not disturb the two sleeping kids on my right."Empress, we are now finished." I heard Kiana mumble, so I looked at them and saw that the four of them were already standing up one by one with their plates, utensils, and glasses.I just nodded my head, "Just put your plates there. I will clean that up once we are finished eating." I told them.They all look at each other and put down the things in their hands gently befo
ICE’S POV:Since I thought that they may feel bored if they just stayed at our house, I invited them to go to the nearest park, which they gladly accepted.Here we are now, putting a blanket on the grassy field of the park below a tree. I found a place that was somehow away from the rays of the sun, so I decided to spread the blanket here instead.Once we were all settled in our positions, I couldn’t help but glance at them and smile as I saw them watching the sky silently.Chronicles were just looking above calmly while History had this fond look on his face, as if he was really enjoying this leisure time of ours.Well, as much as I wanted to finish all that paperwork of mine, I can do that later. What matters now is my children, who seem to like this bond of ours at the moment. I looked around and saw that many children not far from us were already playing and even running with their peers happily.I sighed and smiled sadly. I didn’t experience that though, based on the memories tha
