last update Terakhir Diperbarui: 2025-05-06 20:04:46

When I woke up, I could barely open my eyes properly because of the swelling. I didn't cry because of what happened earlier at the restaurant, but I cried when I received some bad news from my college instructor when I got back here to the suite and that is I might not be able to graduate.

Before I came to this arrangement with Stefano, we had a subject at school that we needed to take the exam earlier than other subjects.

I was able to take the exam and pass the written requirements, but our instructor said that I had one missing requirement that I didn't pass. I asked him what it was because I knew I had passed everything I had to pass on his subject, but he didn't tell me what it was and when I checked my grades on the school portal, I saw that my grade in his subject was 70.

I was immediately wrapped in fear and anxiety when I saw those two digit numbers. I also immediately thought of my family, especially mom, who would surely be disappointed in me once she found out about this.

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 56: Favorites

    Stefano immediately noticed my sudden stop, so he glanced in my direction. I was immediately overcome with panic, that's why I couldn't speak properly when I saw Stefano's questioning eyes.All sorts of things are starting to come to my mind that are making me overthink, especially since the one that I spoke to at Mommy's house, which is one of our maids, only told me very small details about what happened to Mommy, and I can't blame her for that because she panicked on the other end, too. You really can't think straight in situations like this, but you have to fight that because it won't help you think clearly, just like what's happening to me right now.I tried to open my mouth to speak, but no words came out. It was a good thing that I heard my phone ringing and I received a text message on my phone from the maid I spoke to earlier, saying that they brought mommy to the hospital where we are right now so I didn't have to speak to explain to Stefano what was happening and why I was

    "Stefano, come on. Let's just go back to your office. This can still be resolved through good conversation," I said as I stopped him when he looked like he was already ready to watch the CCTV footage.Earlier, when he didn't know yet the full details of the incident, he was so angry already, and right now that he will be going to see the whole thing, I'm sure that he will be even more furious, that's why I'm so eager to just invite him back into his office rather than us staying here which will just bring no good.Stefano immediately glanced at me right after I said those words. "I'm so sorry, baby, but when it comes to you, that's a different story, that's why no matter what happens, I will never let this pass. I will never allow anyone to disrespect you, especially in my territory, because I wouldn't hesitate to ruin their lives," he said one thing after another and I could tell from his voice that he was struggling from something and I know the reason why.I know that he wants to o

    Before I could ask Stefano about his deep thoughts, we suddenly heard a knock on the door, that's why we looked together in the direction where it was."Who is that?" Stefano shouted.Those outside responded and mentioned their names right away."Come in," Stefano's voice suddenly became serious.I was so ready to greet those who arrived with a smile, but that quickly disappeared when the face of a woman who entered became familiar to me.I immediately noticed how uncomfortable and awkward she was. Before our eyes met, she immediately looked away and bowed her head down. I also clearly saw her trying to stop her hands from shaking while her companion, also in a nurse uniform, looked nervous as she looked back and forth between Stefano and me and gave a nervous smile.When I glanced at Stefano, who was just right next to me, his attention was not on the people who had arrived but on the mango graham bar that I had brought and as I watched him, I suddenly felt hungry and craved for that

    Even though I was a little bothered by what she said, I tried not to show it to her because I'm sure that it would only make her more emboldened to mock me.I comfortably crossed my arms and raised my eyebrows at her first before I decided to speak."Is this what really happens to desperate people? Just making up stories even if there's no truth to it?" I couldn't help myself anymore and laughed sarcastically in return for the way she had laughed at me earlier. "I know you know that between the two of us here, your entire family's business is the one that's already bankrupt now and not us! And how and why did that happen to your family? Oh, I remember! Because of my husband, right? My husband named Stefano Joseph Vanderbilt. Many people call him a heartless billionaire, and your family is one of those who will prove that to be true because of the pitiful things that are happening to you right now. Don't worry, Mildred. I'll tell Stefano that it seems like what he did to your entire fa

    I couldn't do anything when mommy asked me to enter my pin code. I just silently watched as she transferred five million pesos to her online banking app so easily, even though I really wanted to stop her. Right after that, she threw my phone at me, and because I didn't expect her to do that, I didn't catch it, so it fell to the floor.Instead of picking it up, I just chose to stop mom from leaving. I grabbed her by the arm, making sure that she wouldn't get hurt from my holding her, and when she turned to face me, she had a very angry expression on her face again."Let go of me!" She shouted as she struggled, but I didn't follow her. I just stared at her after I tightened my grip on her by still being careful not to hurt her from it.Our faces are now closer to each other than earlier. I don't know if what I'm noticing is correct, it's like she suddenly looks older in my eyes. I can remember that she didn't look like this the last time I saw her. Apart from that, I also noticed that s

  • Contract Marriage with the Heartless Billionaire   Chapter 51: Five Million

    Stefano immediately noticed my sudden silence, that's why I felt him peeping at me from his position. Before he could ask me what the problem was, his phone vibrated again in my hand. We suddenly looked there together. We saw that Mildred was calling again.I took a deep breath. I was just about to hand him his phone so he could answer the call when he suddenly pressed the answer button as well as the loud speaker and then hugged me again. It looks like he really has no intention of taking his phone from me as he pressed himself even more against me as if he was a baby.Neither Stefano nor I spoke right after he pressed the answer button. We didn't hear anything from the other line for a few seconds first before we finally heard Mildred's voice. It seemed like she was waiting for us to speak first but it didn't happen so she had no choice but to be the first one to speak."S-Stefano?" There was a hint of fear and nervousness from her voice."What do you want?" Stefano asked lazily."W
