"Good morning, babe..." Alec greeted cheerfully that took her attention from what her doing.
She was putting the tray of cupcakes she baked on the table when Alec found her at the dining area that morning. Yes, she got hurt on what he acted last night and she was still sulking about it but she still decided to wake up early to personally make him a breakfast just like she usually do for almost a week they have been staying here in the Capital now. They may had an agruement last night but that isn't mean she have to act childish and not fulfill her simple obligation as his wife. That is not what married couples do, she knew they have to fix this soon to avoid any conflicts in their relationship.
"Good morning..." She replied carelessly as she continued what she was doing.
"Hmmnn.. Those cupcakes looks delicious, babe." He stated after sniffing the aroma of t
That evening, she cooked something special for dinner. She planned to have a romantic dinner in the garden with Alec. She'll brighten up his mood and be extra sweet with him. She'll open up the topic about what Don Alonzo told her and will try to convince him to approve the said project. Truth is she was nervous about this. She don't know about real estate and construction business, she never had an interest and have no knowledge on that filed at all. She was scared that her plan might not work and worst, this might start and argument between them. But she gotta try though. She promised herself this will be the last time she will bring this conversation to Alec and if he never agreed, she guess she will stop trying. The cook and two servants kindly help her on the fantastic meal. She decided to make Spanish chicken and potatoes, Creme de calabizines, tortilla espanola and broiled spanish mackerel for dinner. She made sure everything will
Their breakfast was very unusual. She still cooked and prepared the food for him and they still had breakfast together and yet, the silence and coldness still belimp between them. They were so close but it seems a big wall was keeping them apart. She was eating and chewing the food but she doesn't seem to taste it well. Feels like she suddenly lost her appetite to eat. Its been a week she was being like this. Probably because of their situation and for thinking too much. She could feel Alec's intent stare as he was eating his food and she was very concious about it. "Camille will be here at the Capital tomorrow and she invited me to hang out with her in a bar. I hope you wont mind if I got late on going home." She stated telling her plans tonight. She tried looking at him but he never look back and gave her a single glance. After a while, Alec cleared his throat that made her looked his way. She saw him now with furrowed brows and
After being drastic and cruel. After the anger and cloudiness of jealousy, seeing his wife lying naked beside him in the bed covered herself in blanket while silently crying as her back was turned on him, it was like a hammer that slowly crushing down his heart. Guilt and regrets enveloped him and that's awakened something inside him. How could he did that drastic thing to his wife? He hurt her and treated her like a wanton woman and he did it again for the second time now. Jealousy blinded him and now he knew he did something he will regret in the end. It might be too late but he was really sorry for what he did. Damn, he couldn't stand seeing her crying this way. He couldn't even touch and console her afraid to meet her eyes full of hatred and hurt knowing he was the reason beyond those tears. He left the room, came outside the house and break anything be could grab in the garden. Feeling guilty and devastated, he didn't even noticed he was silent
Staring at the ornamental flowers and seeing their improvement made her smile and feel contented. She used to grow them before because she was so fascinated with flowering and herbaceous plants. Gardening was one of her habits too beyond cooking. She was fond with garden plants because they give such a soothing and relaxing feeling in the eye and being at the mansion's garden again after almost two months felt so relaxing and soothing in the feeling. Nana Marcela told her that her favorite tulip plants made an improvement so she immediately rushed to the garden and checked it herself. She could remember how they were so tiny before and looking at them finally sprouted in full bloom after two months simply brings joy to her heart. She was at that brink of happiness when she suddenly got interrupted because her eyes caught something in her peripheral view. She was not aware Alec followed her and never even noticed he was now silently watching her from a far
"Oh thank goodness, you're here!" Patty stated in a worried tone as soon as she saw them. She immediately hugged Patty and then Alec did the same too afterwards. Patty looked tired with eyes sullen as if lacking of sleep. She might rushed immediately all the way from Russia when she found the news about Don Alonzo as well. Her husband Jon Carlo was standing beside her silently watching them. "How's he?" Alec asked in a worried tone. From the look of his face he seemed anxious and scared, the first time she saw him react that way towards his father. From hacienda, they rushed back to the Capital after hearing the news about Don Alonzo. Alec settled everything in the De Hizon Empire and chosen people who will administer the business while they were away. They flew to Zurich, Switzerland immediately after a day and booked the earliest flight they can have after Alec cleared his schedule. All the way to the plane until they reached the hospi
When the sudden shocking loss of Don Alonzo De Hizon spread all over the business society, the media and newspapers feasted about the news. Friends, well known people and politician friends of Don Alonzo came at his wake to pay their respects and condolences. The wake lasted for three days and it has been a very emotional time for their family mostly to Alec. He was silent and abstain during the wake and the burial. She knew he was the most affected one to the death of Don Alonzo and she made sure to always be right by his side to console and sympathize him. Patty and Jon Carlo was the one who usually face and talked to the close friends who show their condolences. They all decided to cremate the body of Don Alonzo and according to the family lawyer it his one of his will. It's a shocking thing that the old man even thought of this matter when he was alive as if he was expecting it to happen in the future. After the inurnment, his body got cremated and his rema
She was never been happy this way for the first time. To know she was carrying a little life inside her tummy was something wonderful and grateful. She was having a baby and heaven knows how she felt so blessed and amazingly happy at the moment. She may never knew who her real mother is but Nana Marcela showed her what its like to be a good and caring mother. She will love and take good care her child the best way she can and that's a promise. No words can express how she feels right now. Realizing now that there's a new life stirring inside her will remind her that she will never be alone no more. Something that she can finally call her own. One thing for sure, she will give her everything for this child. She will never let her baby feel unloved and be manipulated like the way she was when she was young. She will never interfere in his life and will support him whatever will makes him happy as long it was the right thing. She won't let him beg for attention like
Paul Gutierez brought her to an hospital to meet his father Peter Gutierez. He said they have to meet Peter to prove that everything he was saying about her identity was all true. She hesitated at first because trusting a stranger was not a smart thing to do but she have to take risks in order to have her answers about her true identity. They went into a private hospital room where they saw a two nurse leaving the said room and there she saw an old man around sixties that is now lying in an hospital bed. When they entered the room, Paul walked towards the patient and kissed the old man gently on the forehead. When the old man noticed her presence, his eyes automatically flew on her. She felt him studied her features and stared closely at her face for a long time. From a curious face, his eyes widen in shock as if he was recognizing her little by little. The old man seemed too stunned because by the way he looked at her, it was as if he couldn't seem t
