NINETEEN
AS they discussed, Hunter takes me back to his unit. My family just drove me and they just made sure I was ok before they left me and go back to Bulacan. Kyla is no longer with us here. But as usual, our room was still separate.
I am in bed when Hunter enters the room with food. He laid it on the side table and set it in the bed.
"Would you like to eat?" he asks.
"I want to rest, can you please leave me." I heard him sigh.
"I'll just leave it here, you might get hungry later." I just nodded then tilted my back to him.
"If you need help I'm just in the other room."
"I can manage, please lock the door." I didn't hear anything from him until the door closed completely.
When he left I got up. I am not crippled to let him take care of me. I am strong and I can handle myself. Besides, I know that he did it because he is guilty of what happened.
I didn't sleep all night or let's say I couldn't sleep. I spent all night thinking about t

=HUNTER POV=I can't believe in Ley's decision during our conversation earlier. She set me free and she even forgave me for everything I did to her.This is all that I want, but why do I feel that I am not happy, and I don't know why.She suffered so much at my hand, and I even killed her baby. But in the end, she still forgave me and set me free. She loved me so much, she valued me so much. She didn't even tell to her family what really happen just to protect me.I took a shot of whiskey and drink it all. I know it was painful for Ley what happened. She endured everything for a long time expecting me to love her too. But what did I repay for all her sacrifices? I killed her child.Whether I or not the father of the child, she is still the mother.Am I really the father?Hailey was a virgin when I got her and I knew that. But Kyla told me she's not. She said Ley is secretive when she has sex with different men and she always undergoes

"Oh, you're lucky Atty. Looks like Miss Kyla and Mr. Lewis are done." My secretary smile at me while Kyla formally said goodbye as if nothing had happened."Hi, is there anything I can help with?" I asked the lawyer in front of me. Well, my secretary calls him Atty, so I assumed he is a lawyer."Good afternoon Mr. Lewis, I'm Atty. Cruz, Hailey's lawyer. Would you mind if you could come and discuss something privately?"I nodded to him even though I was a little surprised. I invited him inside the office."Sure, come." He followed me. "Have a set, Atty," he sat down at the opposite table then pulled out a paper."I will not prolong the reason for my coming here, Mr. Lewis. Miss Hailey came to my office this morning and filed an annulment." He then handed me the paper.I took the paper and read it. It's an annulment paper already signed by Hailey.I picked up the paper and looked at it carefully. Ley and I talked about this earlier, but why did

"Atty, something wrong?" I asked the lawyer when I opened the door."I need to talk to you Mr. Lewis," he said seriously.Damn, I'm fucking hungry and this man outside wants to talk to me."This is more important than your annulment," he added which makes me confused."Come in." I let him in even I am in hurry. I let him set in visiting room and took some sweets to offer. I also ate biscuits to somehow alleviate hunger. When I came back I brought him a soda in a can. That's all there is in the refrigerator and still alone."Tell me what's wrong and how did you find out my address." I started to ask and sat in front of him."Miss Ley give me your information. She said if you are not in the office I will take the annulment here.""Ok, and what now, what do you want Atty?""I tried to contact miss Hailey after I came to your office to give her the news that you already signed the paper, but her phone was off.""And?"

Past nine in the evening and I am still here outside the building where my condo is based. I almost walked around the area that Hailey might go to but there is no sign of her. I no longer knew where to look for her.I hit the steering wheel of the car. I don't know where else I'm going to find Ley. I need an update about her before she can be declared missing or else tomorrow morning I will sleep in jail if someone knows what happens between us."Province," I said softly. I don't have any choice but to go home to her place. I need to talk to her parents and get ahead of them before they think bad things against me.I decided to go to the condo first to get things. I'll go out even at night for tomorrow morning I can talk to her parents and we can file a report at the same time that Ley is missing.Somehow I will prove I am innocent. In the loss of my wife.When I got out of the elevator I saw Kyla frowning as she stood outside the condo."Wh

I left early and headed to the province. I told Kylie to stay in the condo while I was away. I don't know how long I'll be there. As long as Ley is not seen or there will be no news of her I will stay there first. I give her every detail about the condo so she can stay there as long as she wants.While on my way I couldn't help but imagine what had happened to Ley.If she was injured or maybe she had an accident?But still, I do not know the answer.All I know now is she's putting me in danger. What she right now, I would not be the only one ruined when something might happen to her but also my family.Even on the road I still look around when the opportunity arises. Maybe I'll see Ley. But until I reached the place, I couldn't find even Ley's shadow. I decided to go home first to talk to my father. I need his help because Zacharias will definitely kill me because of what happened.When the maid saw my car, she immediately approached me.

"They are Amaranth, do you think if I kill Zacharias, will you be free? no, another Amaranth will come and maybe will kill us both. If I let you run away, do you think you will be free again? Again no, because they will hunt you wherever you go."I suddenly realized the reality. I was mistaken for a woman I crashed into. I thought Ley is an easy woman, I forgot dad's warning because I'm so mad at her. Now she is charging me. It hasn't really started yet but it brought me a strange fear."I am not doing this just because of myself, Hunter, but because of you also. My life is almost over, if I'm having fun now, it's because I deserve all of this. After all the sacrifices and the hard work that I made. If I am accumulating wealth because I want that if I leave in this World, I have something for you," he explained to me."If something bad happens to Ley, I will be imprisoned, I will not be able to use your wealth either." What is the use of his wealth if it doesn't

"She got those during our ------ sex." As if I was embarrassed to answer then bowed my head. No one spoke to them because they seemed to get what I wanted to tell."I admit I didn't love Hailey when we got married, but I never showed her bad. I respected her because I also have a sister. That's why we tried to have a baby so maybe we can develop our love. But we didn't expect what happened." I show them that I am also not in favor of what is happening to us."I want her to be ok, to be safe, if she really doesn't want to come back to me, I will respect her decision. But at least I know she's ok," I added."I told you hon, your daughter is making a fool of herself again." Mommy Charlotte said calmly. I guess everything I said was effective. "Because you were always there to tolerate her doings.""No, I'm not, I just taught her to be strong just like Hera. How to be dependent and how to protect themselves," daddy Zacharias replied."No you're not hon

"L-Ley, what are you doing here?" I asked Ashley who was sitting on the sofa with her hand outstretched with a wide smile."Surprised!" she shouted then stood up and hugged me."Stop it, Ley, I asked you, what the hell are you doing here?""Tss! stop calling me Ley, I'm not Hailey. But it's okay also since she passed me her crown as a Queen of all bitches." She smiled at me then went back to sitting on the sofa. "Don't you miss me, brother?"Ashley is my younger sister. She's one of the brats who also frequent the bar that Hailey hangs out, based on my informant who investigated Hailey. As far as I know, they knew each other and sometimes they hang out together when Ashley comes home to the Philippines."Why are you here and what did you do to Kyla?" I'm not mad at her, I just want to know what happened to Ky. For sure she did something before so Kyla shouted."Wow! I didn't do anything to her huh! I just pinched her lips. I said I would sur
