Chapter 23

Rita continued knocking on Carlos's door, but he was not responding.

Then she saw Vivian approaching. She was a bit scared that there might be a fight again.

“I hope you don't mind. I was just trying to check on my son. He was meant to sign a deal with the Choi Group today in Florida, but I haven't seen him since yesterday.” Rita was careful with her choice of words; she didn't want to say anything that would make Vivian angry with her again.

As Vivian came closer to the door, Rita stepped backwards.

“He is meant to sign a deal with the Choi Group? Like the almighty Choi Group?” Vivian asked, her eyes widening as she looked at Rita for quick answers.

The old lady nodded. “Yes, he has always wanted to sign a deal with that company. It will give him the chance to be among the most sought-after tech companies in the world,” Rita replied, still afraid of Vivian, who had automatically turned into a bully.

“Wow! Signing with them means more money, right?” Vivian smiled in a sinis

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Chapter 31: Bryan's odd thoughts

    The nurses watched the old man examine the baby.“Can you take his clothes up a bit for me, please? I want to check something,” Grandpa Morris pleaded with the nurses, who just stared at him, unmoved.“We're sorry, sir, but we cannot undress the baby now. Maybe you can check the baby out when you get home,” the nurse bluntly refused to give in to the old man's request.Grandpa Morris stood there, disappointed, but he didn't want to give up. He strongly believed that the mark of the family would be found on the child. “What if he doesn't have it? No, he must definitely have one of them!” The old man continued battling with himself as he walked out of the room.When he got outside, where Bryan was standing with his men, the disappointed look on his face prompted Bryan to ask him a question.“What is the problem, sir? Hope the baby is alive?” Bryan inquired, concerned for the once joyful old man who had gone in to see the newborn.But Grandpa Morris remained quiet. He gently sat in the

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Labor Day

    Chapter 30Five months later.“Bryan! Please help me! I think the baby is coming!” Elena shouted from her room.She struggled to stand up from the ground, but the pain in her lower abdomen was unbearable. Her waist felt so heavy; the baby inside her womb seemed too much for her to carry.“Bryan! Anyone? Please help me!” she cried out again.Suddenly, she felt something like liquid gushing out from her body. She slipped her hand through it.“God! My water just broke! I am in labor! Somebody! Help!” Elena screamed, shouting at the top of her lungs.At that moment, the maid, who had suspected she heard a voice, ran into the room and saw Elena begging for help. She quickly rushed toward her, but Elena was too heavy for her to carry. The maid gently laid her back on the floor and rushed out to get help.Elena could no longer endure the pain, but she felt powerless to save herself. She watched the maid run out, leaving her all alone. Glancing at the bed frame, she thought of holding onto i

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Vivian's Deception

    Chapter 29Rita turned towards Vivian when she heard that name from Vivian's mouth.“Where is that Witch? She has the guts to return to this house after leaving without our consent? I am sure I'm going to deal with her!” Rita stood up and went to the window, stretching forth her neck and looking for Elena.“No, I am talking about the lady on the screen!” Vivian corrected, trying to get a closer look at the figure walking down the walkway.Rita returned her gaze to the television screen once more. After a minute, she started laughing.“Don't tell me you miss Elena! How can she be the one walking down the walkway as the wife of Miller's grandson? Can't you see that woman is pregnant? Elena is barren!” Rita countered immediately.Vivian scratched her hair. She knew her friend very well, but looking at the lady's walking steps, she thought she walked like Elena. However, she believed everything Rita said—Elena was a poor nobody and could not come into contact with such a rich and wealthy

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Suspecting Elena

    Chapter 28Grandpa Morris stood by the doorstep, he grasped, with his mouth wide open, covering his eyes with his hand like a toddler.Bryan quickly jerked away from Elena, while she quickly glanced at the floor, wiping her lips with her palms in a childlike manner.The room fell silent for a moment before Grandpa Morris broke the stillness.“I’m sorry for interrupting! I had no idea you two were in here!” The old man’s voice shook, but his face was beaming with smiles. He swallowed his saliva then turned to leave, but Bryan quickly stood up.“You don’t have to apologize, Grandpa. I was just about to leave the room,” Bryan stammered, stealing glances at both his grandfather and Elena, who wished for the earth to swallow her whole, while rubbing his fingers.Grandpa Morris chuckled, insisting that he leave the room first, clearly delighted.“The maids told me those two don’t sleep in the same room, that they’re not intimate, but I just confirmed with my own eyes that they are! And it

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Unexpected Kiss

    Chapter 27“That's because I thought I could fix another appointment with the Choi group!” Carlos shouted.“You’re making me look like a horrible person without even finding out what happened! Why didn’t you confront me that day? Now that I’ve forgotten everything that happened, you bring it up? The only thing I can remember now is that I fell asleep!” Vivian yelled back, rushing out of the room, pretending to cry.Rita felt pity for her as she watched Vivian dash out from the room.“I think we’ve been too harsh on her. We’ve lost the deal already; we can’t afford to lose her too!” Rita told Carlos, gently pulling his hand indirectly stopped him from going after Vivian.Carlos clenched his fists, struggling to balance his emotions. Watching Vivian cry and losing a contract were two things he couldn’t handle at the same time.“Carlos, you need to think this through. We can settle this without anyone getting hurt. I’ll find out how the Millers group got the contract without a wife. I’m

  • Fate Entwined in a Shadow    Lame Excuses

    Chapter 26“Please, Vivian! Don't hurt yourself! It's not worth it!” Rita pleaded, trying to take the knife from Vivian's hands.“No, allow me to hurt myself and my baby, since my husband is so angry with me that he cannot tell me what I did! You know that I always want the best for Carlos, right? I would never want him to lose any deal. Now he is proudly telling us that he lost his dream deal because of me!” Vivian cried, tears streaming down her face.Rita felt pity for her, still trying to stop her from hurting herself.Carlos, deep in thought and regret, heard the noise coming from the corridor. He heard his mother pleading and decided to run out of the room to see what was happening.He was reluctant at first but, as the noise intensified, he stood up and went to the door.He was shocked to see his wife with a knife, trying to harm herself.“What are you trying to do? Are you out of your senses? You made me lose my job; now you want to kill my unborn child? Why?” Carlos shouted
