HE SURPRISE me by taking me to his condo instead of just taking me out.

"Woah!" As I made my way around the house, my mouth started to water.

I bent down to pet a figurine on the table and gave it a gentle kiss.

"I think this one is a little pricey!" I screamed.

"What are you doing? Stay away from my things!" I hear him growl at me.

He's carrying a phone and appears to be dialing his ex-girlfriend.

"You're so cruel," I sniffed and sat on the sofa. Despite this, he was still quite attractive. Argo is, to be fair, an extremely attractive man.

"Who told you to sit there?" he asked, raising an eyebrow at me.

"Fine!" I rose to my feet and began to make my way to the front door of the room.

"Where are you going to?"

I turned to face him and crossed my arms over my chest.

I'm going home! What am I even going to do here?!"

"Who directed you to leave? Remain where you are." He commands, and he turned his back on me.

I exhaled deeply and leaned against the door that was closed. What plans does he have for me? If he hadn't thrown me in prison, we would have parted ways now!

I looked at the wristwatch that I was wearing. "I am very hungry!"

I almost simultaneously raised my eyebrows and walked towards the kitchen.

"Woah! This is remarkable!" I yelled out.

I never imagined that I would be able to visit such a lovely home, and I am certain that the equipment inside is state-of-the-art.

I initially grabbed the apple from the granite table. I had just wiped it on the hem of my dress before taking a bite.

I opened the refrigerator. I was almost overcome by the quantity of food, particularly the chocolates.

"I could literally stay here for a month and enjoy it!" I snatched a box of chocolates and swiftly opened it.

I nearly choked when I noticed Argo leaning against the doorway as I turned to rest my back on the table.

His eyes were dark and threatening. Due to his repressed rage, the ligament in his neck was also on the verge of rupturing.

I responded with a smile, "Am, for the baby." I patted my empty stomach.

He tightly closing his eyes and he took a long breath.

"Come with me," he ordered.

I ENTERED a room with him without hesitation. I discovered him seated in his swivel chair and writing on his cheque.

I hastily sat down in front of him and took a fast look at his signature.

His eyebrows quivered as he peered up at me.

Before taking another bite of apple, I blinked my eyes and smiled. While munching, he never takes his eyes off me.

"You like?" I smiled at him in a friendly manner.

He just shook his head after the cheque was put on the table.

"Is that enough for you to leave?"

I saw what was written on the check. I almost spit out the chewing apple inside my mouth because the big money written on it.

"Twenty million pesos?!"

I stared at him as if I didn't believe what I was seeing.

"Tell me if this is not enough. I will add just get out of my way."

My lips split suddenly. This is too much.

"That is enough." I took out the cheque and waved it in the air, but he quickly grabbed my wrist.

"But before that, I want you to tell me who paid you to ruin me and my marriage?"

My forehead wrinkled. What does he say?

"There is no one involved at all." A direct response was given by me.

"I don't believe what you say. Honestly, do you think I'll trust what you're telling me? If I want to, I can still put you in prison!"

My arm was still in his grasp even after I yanked it back.

"I'll take the child after nine months of being pregnant, if that's the case. Whenever you desire, you can vanish into thin air. But if you don't show off a child on the day I specified, I'm going to take legal action against you!" he said and let go of my wrist.

Immediately, my forehead became hot and sweaty. He needs a child, but where can I obtain one? What does he think of me ruining my virginity while I'm still young?

So I standing up, and threw down the cheque on his table.

He gave me a puzzled glance and then raised his eyes to mine.

"I've come to my senses. I'm not going to take that money. Because you're an irresponsible man, I can't just hand over my child to you!" I nearly threw confetti in my face because of my good answer.

I could tell his expression had darkened as a result of what I'd spoken. He jumped to his feet and stepped closer to me as well.

As he stared down at me from the top of my head, I was aware that my knees were quivering with fear.

He appeared to touch my entire face as he dipped his head slightly. My lips were the last thing he looked and my chin was lightly stroked by his hand as he reached up and stroked it.

"Poor lady, I'm well aware of your intentions at this point in time. You'll never be able to con me. If everyone in the church, even Florisse, was duped by you. Then, you've got the wrong person, my dear." His voice was hushed.

I'm so frightened that I'm sweating on my forehead, but at the same time my heart skipped on its beat for some reason. Damn, he's so handsome and his scent complimenting my nostril. I could feel my knees go weak and my lips quivered. But I blinked and arch my brows at him

"In that case, let's see and find out who is telling the truth, let's wait and see." I replied with a sneer on my face.

He released me, even though I've been attempting to halt my heart's beating.

The sound of a buzzer was ringing at his door. He turned his back at me, and he walked out of the room and opened the door.

"Stupidity at its worst! Exactly, what just happened?!"

My ears picked up the sound of a man's voice outside the room.

"Where is Florisse? How about my parents?" Argo asked.

"Okay, what happened earlier is still hard for me to believe. And they all want to find you. Someone saw you and the girl riding in the car. Damn it, Argo!"

I moved forward to see who was talking. He was the best man for the groom in the church, I think.

"Oh, Jesus!" He almost jumped when he saw me peeking, he almost got scared of me.

He would probably be surprised because of the dress I was wearing and my curly hair.

"What's she doing here?!"

I slowly came out from the room. . .

    Special Chapter Love After the wedding, we went straight to the resort to greet the guests who attended the gathering. Tonight's party was also simple. Almost only select guests attended the reception. Almost everyone was happy with the way the ceremony went, especially daddy and mother who seemed to be having trouble talking to Argo's mommy. "Congratulations to our newlyweds!" Christof pronounced loudly while holding the champagne bottle in his hand. Argo approached him and hugged him before patting him on the shoulder. He looked at Paul and George who hugged him too. "Thanks for coming, I thought you wouldn't be able to make it." "Still us? We know you've been planning this for a long time." Christof shifted his eyes on me and gave a wink. So, it's true that this marriage was planned and not just Argo's sudden thought. I will definitely give him a sermon later. "Congratulations, Natalia." I looked up at Paul who was smiling widely at me. I did the same before spe

    Aisle I couldn't hold back my tears while riding in the car. Mother always caressing my back non-stop. "Don't worry hija. Everything will be fine." But nothing is running through my mind right now but the possible consequences of Argo. Mother said she had an accident on her way to Calatagan. So I drove the car straight to the nearest hospital because it was said that Argo was probably brought here. But we passed several hospitals and the car still didn't stop. I didn't pay attention to that thing because my mind was still confused by what was happening. But after we got out of Calatagan, the car still didn't stop at the hospital. "Where are we going?" I couldn't stop asking Mother. But he just stroked my back and nodded to me. I let out a sigh. My heart beat harder. What's going on? I don't understand. Where was Argo taken? We were already in Nasugbu when I noticed we were heading to one of the resorts there. I looked at Mother with a look of surprise on her

  • Chasing Argo Greensmith (English)   Chapter 78

    Tragic NewsI had already prepared to go to Nasugbu to visit Dad's hotel there. He said that I will take care of managing there from now on. He has also notified all the hotel staff and managers so it will not be difficult for me to introduce myself. After half an hour's drive, the car stopped in front of the hotel. Right there, I saw the staff lined up as if they were waiting for my arrival. Rosario who will be my personal assistant and Shiela who will be my secretary are also there. I took a deep breath before going down after one of my security guards opened me up. Daddy requested that I be given security because of Andra's surveillance of me and what happened in the past weeks. Also, the child I'm carrying is already walking for three months, so I'm very careful with my actions. Even if Mother wanted to stop me and just stay at the Villa, I didn't agree. I want to help Daddy and reduce his work load as much as possible because I was a witness to the hours he allocated for jo

    RealIt was noon when the yacht we were on docked at the Island. My smile became wide because we were greeted by some uniformed men. Some of us even tied flowers around our necks that must have been made by them. "Welcome to Isla Verde!" They welcomed us warmly. As before, there are not that many people here but there are a few people who are building small businesses here for tourists who want to go for a walk. In fact, even without electricity at night, that adds to the attraction of tourists who want to camp here. We went straight to a bungalow type where the locals had already prepared food for our arrival. The Mayor and several Councilors who met us earlier were also there. "It's good that you thought of investing in our Island. The truth is that we are having a hard time promoting the Island due to the lack of electricity supply," said the Mayor to Argo as we started eating. "I've been wanting to build a restaurant here for a long time because I think the Island has great

    Isla VerdeI woke up to sunlight hitting my cheeks. At the same time, the cold wind blowing the white curtain. I hugged the pillow tightly and enjoyed the cool breeze. "Good morning, L'amour?"I opened my eyes quickly and quickly got up when I heard Argo's low voice speak. "Why are you still here?!"I didn't hesitate to lower the comporter from my body and get off the bed. I immediately looked for my clothes but I couldn't find them. "Are you looking for this?"I looked up at Argo who was holding my white loose shirt in one hand. Because of so much shock and shame, I almost jumped on the bed to grab the clothes from it. "Give me that!" Instead of giving it, I heard his crisp laugh after pulling my hips to replace his. Sticky shit, Natalia. You're completely naked. Like me, it still can't get dressed so I can freely observe and touch her hard chest. "God, you're so beautiful," he whispered. He caught my gaze and slowly traveled over the entirety of my face. His fingers caressed

    My eyes were still wide open as I felt the person next to me. My heart was pounding nervously. When I noticed it moving, I quickly turned to lie down and turned away from it. I bit my nail hard and prayed that it would be a good night's sleep. But I was startled when I felt his hand touch my thigh and his face pressed into my back. Sticky shit, Natalia. . . What should I do now? Should I move? If I push him? Maybe wake up? In the end I couldn't do anything but let him do what he was doing. Maybe it's really sleeping. But my body almost went cold when I felt his hand on my thigh move. He pulled me close to him and his hand is slowly caressing up to my tummy. I bit my lips harder when he snuggled up behind me and buried his face in the nape of my neck as he continued to gently caress my stomach. "My child. . ." I softened when I heard his soft whisper. He followed with small kisses on my neck and shoulders. I closed my eyes tightly. I want to resist his warm kisses and
