Chapter 63
"I missed you so much," Franco whispered from the crook of my neck and it felt like his voice was serenading my heart.
He was hugging me right now like he was getting strength from me.
"I missed you too," I softly answered as I tightened my hug on him.
"Are you hungry? Do you still need anything else?" he asked right after we separated from our hug and he did not let me go completely because he remained his hands around my waist as I also remained my hands around his neck.
"Uhm, no. I already ate earlier before Miss Jessica put makeup on me and I do not need anything else because you are already here right now with me," I smilingly and teasingly said to him as I am still looking at him straight in his eyes.
Chapter 64The sound of the falling and shattering of the glass trophy on the floor quickly echoed in front of the coordinator’s office which is why I already expected the suddenly slowly opening of the door because I am sure that they heard the sound from the inside.I was still frozen on my feet, unable to process what I just heard.Many questions are quickly running through my mind right now and it feels like my brain was also in a mess as well.Is everything that Ma'am Alexandria said was true? Was everything really planned by Franco right from the very start for his revenge? When else did they meet each other? And was it really Franco’s parents the one we collided with that night of the accident? Why is he taking revenge on me when in fact, I did not want that accident to
Chapter 65And since I could no longer bear the pain that I was feeling, I decided to just leave and leave them here but before I could completely turn my back on them, I suddenly and quickly felt that someone was already pulling me inside the office and I knew right away who it was.I quickly struggled from his grip when I already felt my back against a hard wall while my tears were still uncontrollably dripping from my eyes down to my cheeks.I am not looking at him right now. My eyes just remained on his chest as I continued to struggle from his hold on both of my arms."B-Baby, listen to me first, p-please," he pleadingly said as his voice almost broke but I already knew better. I am sure that he was just going to make me believe in his lies again and I refuse to believe in him again.
Chapter 66And even though I was still feeling nervous, I still mustered up my courage to continue pushing Franco on his hard chest away from me as my tears began to flow again.The pain in my heart was still here, especially that the person who caused this was just here right in front of me, not allowing me to leave and keep on caging me in his arms."Let go of me, Franco!" I firmly and grittedly said to him while I was trying my best to get away from his hold but he just shook his head, pulled me closer to his body, and hugged me more, and just immediately hid his head on the crook of my neck."I-I am so sorry, baby. I-I am so sorry. Hear me out first, p-please. H-Here me out first. I-I love you. I-I love you so m-much," he whispered slowly against my neck, almost begging for his life.
Chapter 67I was covering my whole face with both of my hands as I am biting my lower lip just for my wailing and sobbing to not be heard throughout the comfort room.My shoulders were already shaking from crying too much as my heart continued to feel pain.Until this time, the revelations of Ma'am Alexandria and Auntie Cecille to me earlier still run through my mind right now like some kind of a super typhoon that had a very strong impact on me, especially on my entire system.While I was also still crying, the memories that Franco and I had shared just continued flashing back just right in front of me, especially the happy ones that we had which just made my heart ache even more.I really did not quite think and expected that he could do this to
Chapter 68"Are you just okay here, Deandra? Come here first. I brought you some snacks to eat. You have been watering my plants since half an hour ago and I am sure that you are tired already," Grandma Gracie softly said from behind me, which made me automatically turn to face her while I was holding a hose.My smile quickly widen when I saw her as she was already putting down the tray with some snacks that she was holding on the color black round garden dining table and after that, she started getting and putting down one by one the plates, glasses, and glass pitcher on the table and she was smiling so lovely while she was doing that.I remained my eyes on her, watching her happily fixing the table while there was still a smile on my face.She is Grandma Gracie and she is the grandmother of
Chapter 69I could clearly see them from where I am standing but they could not see me from their position because of the tall tree that was almost hiding me from their sights.Why are they hugging? What is Ma'am Alexandria doing here? Is she looking for me through Diether? Does she already know that I am staying with Diether's grandparents right now? Why do they seem so close? And what is their relationship with each other?Many questions entered my mind as I continued watching them.Diether was wearing a color navy blue button down shirt and color white pants while Ma'am Alexandria was wearing a beautiful floral dress.I quickly ran to the back of a large tree just near me when I felt them starting to walk in my direction.
Chapter 70"Excuse me, hija. I do not want to bother you with your crying but I just really need to ask you already where are we going? We have been on the road for a few minutes now since you rode here inside my taxi," the taxi driver asked calmly while glancing at me through the rearview mirror which made me jump a little bit on my seat because I almost forgot that I was inside someone's car."I-I am so s-sorry," I said sincerely as I was already wiping my tears with both of my hands. "D-Do you know any rental apartment here? C-Can you take me there?" I asked with difficulty because I was still sobbing and I also had difficulty in breathing."Yes, hija, I know something," he said smilingly and he even nodded at me. "By the way, are you just alright? I am so sorry for asking. I just really cannot help myself but to worry, especially tha
Chapter 71"This is the only cheap rental apartment that I know here in this place, Andra. Will you just be okay here? Do you want me to join you inside?" Ramon - the taxi driver asked calmly when we were already outside his taxi and in front of the rental apartment.It was already six-thirty in the evening and it was very dark all around as well.Only the light coming from some street lights and lights outside some houses here provide us with brightness.There are also a lot of people walking here right now, especially the kids playing on the side of the road because there are many houses next door to the rental apartment that is where we are right now.It looks nice to live here and my only wish is that I could be close to the rest of them so th
