“I think now that she’s out of danger.He wouldn’t be so angry at you.You just have to go up to his bedroom…look super remorseful…cry if you have to and apologize to Fabiola.”Esme shrieked.”You want me to apologize to her?”How could she apologize to that lowlife?If she hadn’t bewitched Lorenzo and his Grandfather…who would have known a person like Fabiola existed?“You’re in no position to complain right now.You brought this upon yourself.Go apologize to her and try to convince Enzo that you didn’t do it on purpose.”Esme’s teeth clenched.”Fine!”Alicia stood up from the chair.“I’ll go with you.You have to get Enzo to forgive you before Grandpa comes home.If he gets to know about this…..”The older woman shook her head trying not to panic.”I might not be able to help you.”She grabbed her daughter’s arm and they headed up the stairs.“Esmeralda.”Someone called,harshly.Mother and daughter froze on the spot recognizing that voice.They slowly turned around to see Diego in front of th
She stared up at him nervously and murmured.“I’m…I’m still sick…you know.”She tried as much as she could to look pitiful.His mouth came down on hers,hard and hungry.The initial contact proved so potent that they both had to pause for a shuddering breath.He let go of her wrists and she didn’t fight him…Her body started to heat up….Even if she wholeheartedly didn’t want to do this with him,her body was responding in all the right ways…Her eyes were closed as she kissed him back…blending their tongues together.Recalling that she was still recovering,he disengaged from her.Fabiola blinked rapidly…How could she kiss him like that and still convince him that she didn’t want him?“Get some rest,Fabby.But you should have it in mind that next time,we won’t be stopping.”Still baffled and speechless from the kiss they had shared,she quietly turned over to her side and shut her eyes trying to fall asleep and forget how good kissing him felt.Lorenzo stared at her sleeping frame and the
“Stop this already!Maintain like two meters distance from me.”She grumbled.He crossed his arms.”Why is it such a crime to walk with my wife?”“I told you already…I need to go low-key,okay?”He rolled his eyes as watched her walk a distance from him.Then she turned to face him.“Why aren’t you coming?”“2 meters,remember.““But you’re going to show me to a good place you know.”“Am I now?”“We’ve already spent some time running around…just take me there already.”He stared at her squarely and kept standing there.“Fine…no more 2 meters.”She grumbled.She just wanted to get this over and done with already…He walked closer to her and held her hand.She looked around wondering if anyone was looking at them.She felt some were but she might also be overthinking things.“Relax,okay?”He advised as they finally started to walk around like a normal couple.“Since we’re at the mall,will you like to get anything?”She frowned.”Like what?““Clothes?Bags?Shoes?”“If you have any idea how it fee
Through the glass window,Camila stared at her boss and his wife….chatting,laughing and eating.For the umpteenth time,she wondered what Lorenzo saw in her…If he were married to someone sophisticated and rich…she might have thought the union made sense but this…this…It doesn’t make any sense at all…Don Lorenzo couldn’t settle for someone like this…********************If he didn’t have much work on his table…he would have stalled and tried to get her to stay for a while but he really needed to focus on his business today so immediately after they finished eating,she left his office.**********************As Fabiola headed out of his office.She passed by some employees and Fabiola heard them gossip about her loudly.“This is Mrs Martini?”“There had been so many wealthy women coming after Don Lorenzo.”“I’m still wondering why he married this woman?”“Did you guys see the news online?They had been at the mall earlier today and they shared a kiss.”“The funniest part is that she’s s
When she got home,she tried to busy herself by reading the books Diego had given to her…Feeling bored a bit,she picked up her cellphone and went online…She instantly regretted doing that as her mood got spoilt completely…She discovered that a blogger had released some news about her.The heading alone was enough to draw people’s attention.“Is Don Lorenzo’s new Bride cheating on him?”In dismay,she hurriedly scrolled down to read the content of the news.There was even a video showing moments ago when Nadia and Fabiola had been arguing hotly.These people even had the guts to dig into her past.It was revealed that She and Dante had been in a relationship and Nadia was her best friend.But then the story got twisted and they made it look like she had left Dante because he had no money.Even if Dante had begged her to stay…she had broken up with him.Nadia appeared to be the one who stayed by his side…helping him heal from the heartbreak and then they fell in love.But now…it seemed F
Nadia watched the news with clenched fists…People were clearly believing Fabiola’s words…And her husband really seemed to adore her.Damn it!The front door being kicked opened startled her.She stood up to see Dante walking into the house…He looked angry and disheveled.“You’re home early.”She began.“Home,huh?”He asked,dropping his briefcase…She shrieked when he brushed a flower vase to the floor…shattering it into pieces.“What’s wrong with you,Dante?”She asked,scared.“What’s wrong with me?!No…you should ask yourself what’s wrong with you…what the hell is your problem?!Haven’t I done my best?When you insisted on getting married…I agreed.Anytime you mother asks for money…and you know she always asks excessively as if I’m a money making machine…I always do my best to please her…to please you…you kept pushing on the fact that you didn’t want to live in a rented apartment…I took a loan to make a down payment for this house…I give you everything you ask for…why…just why are you doin
“Me?”Fabiola asked,surprised.She stared at the clothes in Camila’s hand…It looked so exquisite to be on her body.“Yes…you have a figure similar to the model’s.Please help us out.”Camila pleaded.Just then,a staff hurried over.“The model just called in sick.You know Mr Martini always want high-class models testing these clothes…most of the ones I tried to contact are all booked.”Camila sighed and stared at Fabiola,pleadingly.“But…but she just said Enzo prefers high class models…I’m not even a model..”“You just have to try it on.I’m sure he won’t mind.”Camila pressed on.Fabiola looked around….They really needed her help and besides this was Lorenzo’s company…It wouldn’t hurt if she helps out.Fabiola tried on the blue suit…She then stared at herself on the mirror…Fabiola smiled…she looked so sophisticated…like someone working in a company…Then she remembered that she was an high school dropout…She could never get a nice job.“This outfits suits you perfectly though the sho
Lorenzo’s whole body trembled as he painfully tried to push those memories aside…He shakily opened his eyes….“We found the culprit…it was Tonia.Turns out she was asked to dispose it the last time but she forgot and then she added it to the sample clothes that needed to be checked today.We’ve fired her.”Carlos informed him.”And also,Mrs Martini was only trying to help since the model didn’t show up,”Lorenzo sighed.”Has she gotten home now?”“I called the housekeeper…She said Mrs Martini didn’t return home.”His fist clenched.”Find her.”Carlos nodded and walked out of his office.Lorenzo stood to his feet and walked towards the window…How was he supposed to explain his behavior to her today?***************************It was late now and Fabiola was sitting on a bench in a park…When she had gotten to this place…there was people around but now everyone had probably gone home and she was alone in the quiet park…A tear rolled down her cheeks as the word ‘alone’ reverberated in her
