Zyrone huffed as he entered the elevator that will take him to the office of Json Marcus De La Vega of De La Vega Development Corporation or DLVDC. The company and its sister company DLV Construction are in-charge of Sapphire Waters Resort’s construction and development. About a year ago, he was approached by Don Antonio Tortilliani-Zechinini an Italian investor and a family friend if he would want to try venturing into resorts. He agreed to the terms, thinking it would be beneficial for him to have a separate personal investment from Gold Hotel. Just six months ago, they opened a few of their branches up north. And business was really good and thriving. The fact that he co-owned the resort had his elite friends and associates flocking their branches. All were trying to have their promised taste of paradise like what they have advertised. And thankfully, all of their guests are fully satisfied with their service. They have a perfect rating from different travel companies as proof. An

Belle watched as Zyrone quietly stares at the grave of Baby Theodore. They have arrived at her family’s mausoleum thirty minutes ago. And Zyrone has not spoken anything since. He just stood there, staring at their baby’s grave.She remembered the first time she stood at her baby’s grave when she was still in Las Vegas-- hiding. She was still distraught and was carrying so much pain. That day was sunny and beautiful-- perfect. And yet her world was crumbling right under her feet. She felt no joy nor sorrow. Grief cradled her for weeks and months and it made her numb. John said that she needed to have a good cry. And while she wanted too, she can’t. Her tears won’t fall no matter how much she will them to come. And so her heart did the crying… did the bleeding for her beloved child she never even held, not even once.It was only after she gave birth to Lillie that she found joy again—another reason for her being.Maya-maya pa, nakarinig siya ng pagsinghot. After that, Zyrone’s shoulder

"P-please say something," alanganing sabi ni Belle kay Eliseo.Kasasabi lang niya rito ang plano niyang bumalik sa London dahil nga gusto niyang iwasan si Zyrone. Sinabi na niya sa lolo niya na alam na ng mga Craig ang tungkol kay Baby Theodore. In fact, she drove to Bulacan right after she met Zyrone at White Oaks Garden because she was so distraught and needed someone to talk to. She knew there was no sense of keeping her situation anymore from Eliseo. Lumiliit ang mundo niya at alam niyang ang lolo lang niya ang maaring tumulong sa kanya. That's why she had to come clean. And right now, the anticipation of his response about her decision of leaving to London is killing her.Eliseo took in a sharp breath and went to sit with her on the couch at the balcony of his house. Sandali siya nitong pinakatitigan, bago masuyong ginagap ang isang kamay niya. "Maybe, you took the leadership of PSC too early. Siguro, dapat na ulit akong pumasok sa opisina."She shook her head, worry rising in he

Napabuga ng hininga si Belle habang pinagmamasdan si Lillie na naliligo sa pool ng private villa na pinagdalhan sa kanila ng tauhan ni Zyrone. She wanted to frown because of their but seeing her daughter enjoying the water brings a different kind of joy in her heart. It has been a while now that they had visited the beach. Kaya naman, talagang na-miss mag-swimming ng anak niya.She took a sip of the mango juice that was on the table infront of her. She was sitting at pool lounge which was shaded by a big plant. The villa was heavily inspired by world-class resorts in Bali. From the design of the roof down to the wooden pathway that surrounds the small villa, everything screams of perfection. The place was really breathtaking. Halatang pinag-isipan at pinaghandaan nang husto.Well what should she expect from Zyrone? He only operates on perfection. Anything that doesn't please him, he throws away. One small mistake and he's already walking out of the door.Just like what he did to us

Napakurap si Belle. Ni hindi man lang niya narinig ang paglapit ni Zyrone “K-kanina ka pa?” tanong niya rito.He smiled and walked closer. “I was at the bar. I came as soon as I saw you and Lillie sitting here,” anito, tumingin sa langit bago tahimik na umupo sa tabi nilang mag-ina.She would’ve ran but… sa posisyon nilang mag-ina, it’s nearly impossible. Maya-maya pa, muli itong bumaling sa kanya.“Your daughter is adorable. Thank you for allowing me to… to know her.”Tumango-tango siya at muling itinuon ang mga mata sa langit. They fell silent for a while. She was contemplating on leaving but she seemed stuck there—awaiting for something she doesn’t even know.Maya-maya pa, nagsalita si Zyrone. “Hi, Theodore Wyatt II. Can I call you Theo too? I am… your… your D-Daddy. I’m sorry that we haven’t met. I’m sorry that… I didn’t know about you. There are things that I’d always regret. But… I-I love you, son. Always.”Her heart instantly felt heavy. She drowned in the pain of losing thei
