How come... no one else is bringing up the fact that Ezekiel was cheating on me throughout our married life.I looked up at the sky. It was about to rain in a few seconds.I silently walked alongside Ezekiel towards the parking lot of the cemetery where the car, along with Kuya Pier, was parked."Hold my hand," he commanded, extending his hand towards me.I didn't look at him, losing interest in even glancing at him. But I still followed his request. I loosely held his hand, unlike before. I only maintained the grip when he forcefully tightened it."What did Mother tell you earlier before I came back?" he coldly asked."Nothing." I laughed bitterly, my gaze lost in emptiness. "She just blamed me for Uncle Ross's death.""Tsk!" he grumbled in frustration. "Don't let her words get through to you. She's talking nonsense.""If that's the case, isn't it true?""Of course not—""Isn't it true that because of your search for me, you neglected your responsibilities? To the point of worrying a

"SERENA, drink this ginger tea."Having a fever and dysmenorrhea at the same time couldn't make me feel any worse.My head was throbbing, and my vision was spinning. Due to crying yesterday, my eyes were swollen, and my nose and throat were congested. My lower abdomen was in pain, and my back ached from lying down all day.I didn't know how to position my body to make it comfortable and alleviate the pain."T-The pain..." One hand was rubbing my head, while the other was gently pressing a hot compress on my abdomen."Don't worry, the pain reliever will take effect soon," Ezekiel comforted me by my side. "Drink this now; your stomach is empty."I hesitantly looked at the ginger soup he offered. "I-I don't like the taste.""But this is good to relieve your tummy and muscle pain. You need to drink this.""I don't want to."Because I didn't appreciate Ezekiel's gentleness toward me right now, I wanted to act difficult. Let's see how far his patience will go.Besides, after what happened y

I felt much better the next day due to a whole day of rest and Ezekiel's kind treatment towards me.I had a different kind of energy today. Even though Ezekiel told me earlier before he left not to do anything, I was still in the mood to clean.While I was removing dust in the living room using the noisy vacuum cleaner, I couldn't help but hum."Well, well! The señorita is alive again!" Davina sarcastically teased me.As usual, Barbara was following her. They both had their own cleaning tools.Because I was in a good mood, I didn't feel annoyed by them."Davina, since you're so macho, can you lift this sofa so I can vacuum the inside?""Hey!" Her face immediately crumpled. She instinctively held both of her arms. "You just recovered from an illness, but it seems like you want to experience it again?""Is there something wrong with what I said?" I laughed. "Not many women are as strong as you, so be thankful.""You're such a brat!" Barbara got annoyed. "Lift the sofa yourself! Don't bo

Ezekiel was left paralyzed while staring at the TV screen.The glass of alcohol he was holding earlier was now scattered on the cold tiles of his office, the ice cubes melting away. He felt like he had been doused in icy water, hearing the host's sweet comments while talking to Brantley Maxwell.Their only topic of conversation was none other than Serena and Brantley's "child," accompanied by a photo as proof."Our child is quite a genius. He's only two years old, but he can construct one to two sentences and speaks clearly. He's also tall for his age and very, very brave, regardless of his limits. I think he takes after Serena's personality. I can't help but feel proud of our son."The man proudly showcased their supposed child with Serena. Meanwhile, the photo continued to haunt Ezekiel's heart.If this were just a dream, he would want to wake up and rise to face his wife.The anger he felt earlier upon seeing Brantley Maxwell on TV was quickly overshadowed by shock and a strange fe

As Ezekiel looked at a young boy being held by a girl, a blank expression appeared on his face."W-What do you want? Who are you?" The girl held the boy tightly, surrounded by Ezekiel's men.Because Serena had finally fixed her cellphone and retrieved the information she had contacted before, they quickly found the whereabouts of Serena's child in less than a week.It wasn't Brantley whom Serena contacted that day, but her child.Because Ezekiel wanted their actions to remain quiet, he decided to take the child from the family taking care of him. He didn't expect the girl in front of him to be willing to protect the child."Give me that thing." Due to his blank and dark appearance while pointing at the child, the girl became extremely scared and took a step back.He sat down and gripped his senses tightly.This is the same place where he killed the men who were involved in Brantley's plan to sell Serena on the black market.His men positioned themselves to prevent the girl from retrea
