"So, this is where you are," a firm hand held my wrist and I gasped. I was almost slapped in my face and that had shocked me, and this man had saved me. I looked up only to see his godly features. Those green eyes and firm muscles, his long pointed nose and red lips are something to die for.
Oh my gosh! Why am I hallucinating at this time?!
"Let go of me!" I immediately retorted. I was in the middle of my tantrums and lashing out at my cheating ex-fiancee and his pregnant girlfriend in front of me and I did not notice who he was. Many people are looking at us right now, and I know this is not good for my public image, but… I don’t care anymore!
“You bitch who dare steal my fiancee, how dare you show yourself in front of me!” I said and stood up and faced Mikhael.
“Stop it, Diana, we are in a public place!” he said when there were a lot of people who were looking at and watching us. Only the elite people have access to private dining like this, so it’s a big deal me doing scandalous things like that. I also noticed that the security guard started going to our side. Hah.
“You think I would just let it go?” I asked and went towards them, grabbed his woman’s hair and Mikhael and the guards were stopping me. But I did not let them and take advantage.
“Don’t touch me! Do you know who I am?!” I shouted to the guards, and since my parents are stockholders here, they would not dare do that to her. Moreover, I am a regular customer here.
The guards looked at each other and decided not to do anything. I know it was new to them, because I was fragile and elegant all the time I was there.
But how the hell would I be able to keep my cool in a situation where I, the original fiancee, was asked to become a mistress simply because my fiancee impregnated another woman!
“Ahhh, Mikhael! Help me!” the girl shouted in pain while I was pulling her hair. I feel satisfaction there because that is not enough for all the pain she has caused me.
“Diana, are you insane?! She’s pregnant! Let her go!” I looked at him with such a disbelievable expression. While he was so concerned and rattled, did he ever think about my feelings?
“So what?!” I said and all my anger was focused on her. I feel devastated and broken, and whatever happens after this, I don’t know if I can go back to how I used to be again. “This is nothing compared to all the pain you have caused me!”
“Let go of me, you crazy fucker!” she had shouted at me, which made my blood boil. I pulled it more. “Ahhhh!” she shouted in pain and Mikhael started taking my hands off her hair.
I was ready to marry him, start a family with him, have his kids. Why the hell can't he wait and do this to me?!
“Let go of her—” many voices are swarming around my mind and kept talking to me, but the anger is clouding my mind.
“Stop—” when I heard that annoying voice once again, I finally felt the freedom to let go of her, but my mind wouldn’t listen to me.
“NO!!!!” I shouted with all my might and it echoed all over the dining area of the hotel. But to my shock, I let her go and her butt bumped into the floor, and blood started wetting her skirt. The red liquid had gushed into the clean floor and it was very visible. Her cries earlier are nothing.
“Oh my gosh!” those are the sounds that I heard after that. People are now swarming them now and taking pictures. I didn’t know what to do because I was afraid of blood.
“Blood, blood! Mikhael!” she cried and was scared of her shit. Her face looks horrified. “Oh my gosh, our baby! My baby! Mikhael!!!” her voice had echoed the whole dining room.
“How can she do that to a pregnant woman?!” asked one woman.
“She is horrible! Purely horrible!” added by another and I felt like my head is being teared apart. Guilt hugged my heart.
“Even if he had cheated, the baby is innocent!” those are just some of the words I heard escape from their mouths that made me feel frozen on the spot. My fear of blood, what had just happened is still, processing in my mind.
“I—I didn’t mean to—” I was cut off when Mikhael had rushed to her and scooped her from there, carrying her in a bridal style. He looked down on me and he should at least believe me that I did not mean to! Why is this all blamed on me?!
“Mikhael—” I wanted to stop him and beg him but he did not even stop and continue what he was doing. His face was full of wrath.
“If something happens to my baby, I will never forgive you, Diana,” he said, with a face full of anger in my face. I would like to rebut and say I don’t care, but the child has nothing to do with us! And his face hurts me so much. I was not able to say anything and was left there alone… crying.
Why? Why does it seem like I was the wrong one here? That is an accident! Moreover, he should have caught her! Why do I feel so anxious?
“Ahhh!” I said and threw my bag on the floor, waiting to process everything in my mind.
“I didn’t know the precious daughter of the Balmorris family was this dishonorable,” a cold voice I heard, and I immediately turned my head in front of him and looked at him with disbelief. He was grinning ear to ear and then grabbed me.
“Let’s go,”
“W-wait! Where the hell are we going?!”
I don't know what had gotten into me, but I let him pull me into the corner. I was taken back by that action and honestly nothing came to my mind because it was loaded and full because of what happened earlier.We were in the underground parking lot when I came back to my senses again. "Let go of me!" I hysterically shouted and took a step back. "I--- I wasn't in my right mind. I'm sorry," I said, because I felt guilty for my protector. He saved me from that bullshit situation, so I think that it's just right to feel this way."Well, miss, we have a lot of things to talk about," he said and looked at his secretary. He is also a well dressed and uptight man with glasses. "What time is it?" he asked him."It's 8pm already Sir," the secretary answered. after looking at his watch, "It's time for you to go see your grandfather, Boss,""I know," he said and grabbed my wrist, "Let's go now---""NO! You might have saved me and I'm grateful for that, but I will not come to someone I don't kn
The Ivory Tower is one of the most expensive hotels where the executives of the largest businesses in the country often meet up, as do the government politicians. If he had said the tower, that is where the Blackstone mafia headquarters."Err, I think you're mistaken," I said, "Why would we go to such a dangerous place?" I asked him, because no matter how rich he is, this place is not to be messed up. He did not respond. EVen I, one of the daughters of the powerful nouveau riche, did not dare be here no matter how spoiled I was."Why aren't you saying anything?" I asked him and he just looked at me."No, this is the right place," he said and grabbed my hand. I looked at him with disarray and wanted to gouge my eyes out and rolled my eyes. "Stop grabbing me," I crossed my arms in front of me, "Do you know who I am? I may look like this but my parents are rich," I told him and did not move an inch."Right..." he nodded like he was insulting me, "It was your parents who are rich, not yo
Ridiculous, fucking ridiculous!I was too stunned to speak anything when I heard clapping hands in the background. I felt devastated, but his lips were too sweet to ignore?Oh my gosh! Are you crazy, Diana?! Just a week ago, your ex left you for another pregnant woman during your engagement party, and now you have the nerve to kiss another man! "W-what..." I said and felt like I was hypnotized. I wanted to vanish in that moment and never show up again. He smirked at me because nothing was coming out of my mouth. He scooped my waist and pulled me closer to him."Congratulations, Boss!" The hands clapped him and he was very excited about this new chapter of his life. The grandfather was not convinced at first, but then he eventually came to accept."This is my first time seeing my grandson smiling because of that. Come and join us for lunch," he said, and I just wanted to vanish at that moment. He supported me so I did not fall.The boys are in awe, as if what they had just witnessed w
"Well..." I looked at him and I saw his eyebrows furrowed. Hah! So cute. You want me to ride on your trip after all you did? HA HA HA, in your dreams!"Actually I don't really like him--- ah!" I accidentally slipped out a moan because he had kicked my legs. Why did I do that?! "You fucker---" I was about to say something again when he shoved a spoonful of cake in my mouth."You must be hungry, darling," he said, and looked at me with that handsome face. Oh my gosh, his gorgeous green eyes and luscious lips, how could a person be that handsome?No, scratch it! I wanted to say more but I couldn't because of the cake! So I chew it because it is yummy. I cannot waste that delicious food."Who wouldn't like someone like me?" he asked me with full of confidence and smirked at me. I swear he is so full of himself! I almost choked by gouging out the cake in my mouth."Hahaha! You really are my grandson!" the grandpa said and laughed, "I hope a young lady like you will not get tired of my belo
The office. Contrary to what I'd expected, the room is clean and very minimalist. Just like your ordinary office but very neat."Uhhh, don't you have a sofa here?" I asked, because all I saw was the office chair at which the secretary had scoffed as he suggested the same thing. Maybe. I was very meticulous about my office. That is why I can't understand an executive so simple like this."Waste of space," he simply answered and sat on the floor. That makes sense because I see a conference room on the other side."Still, those are uncomfortable. Where do you rest and meet the other execs, in the conference room?" I asked and sat on the swivel chair in front of the desk. "This is nice," I said, because you wouldn't think that they made me walk!Their stamina is so strong and I wear heels. "What are you looking at? Aren't you the one who asked me to follow?" I said and fanned myself, "And the aircon, please turn it on... Hah! So hot here!" I said because I was so exhausted right now. Th
I forgot that I left my car in the parking lot of the hotel earlier and I was dragged here."Raphael, you bastard!!!" I said because he could just take me back there. As you all know, I am a public figure right now and showing myself in the public can get me into a mess."Why are you calling me?" a cold baritone voice asked, and I looked up to see him. He really is well groomed. I just don't like that he is so arrogant. He has everything except for his attitude and temper."Well, could you lend me a car-- or accompany me to the hotel, because I left my car there," I said and tried to smile as innocently as I could. "Are you sure you want to go back there? The reporters sure will flop on you.""I know that, just drive for me," I said and hugged myself. It is indeed getting cold here and I did not even bring a jacket with me. It was all in my car-- my jacket and shoes. The heels I'm wearing right now are not helping with the cold.I gritted my teeth and started trembling. Why is it so
The Grand Ball of the Elite.Every year the President of the GP Country holds an annual banquet. It is an event where the elite of the elite exchange the biggest business transactions. Also, this is a way to find a partner for the marriage of their children.Since Diana and Mikhael's engagement had turned worse, her parents had no choice but to attend with the intent of finding another partner for her."Why is this happening, Diamante?" Sienna asked her husband while replaying the video of what happened in the hotel. "I'm sure our Diana did not intend to do so. How dare that bitch show up in front of her!" her mother said and gritted her teeth while sobbing to her husband."Shush, Sienna, I'm doing all I can to take down that video," he said."I'm sure it was edited, or if not, accidental! They even dared to frame my daughter!" she gritted her teeth, "I trusted Mikhael so much and that is how would he repay us?!" Her father looked at the laptop again where the video kept replaying. I
"Just what the hell did you do, Mikhael?!" my mother rushed into the room with an angry expression together with her assistants. She is always like that. I put the wine glass on my table nonchalantly and looked at her."What did I do, mother?" I asked her and she suddenly slapped me in the face. That hurts. I smiled."You are feigning ignorance when you clearly know what the problem is!" she said and gritted her teeth. I bet my left cheek is swelling right now. I massaged it."Young master!" my maid had immediately rushed to me to put something in my face to prevent it from swelling more. I looked at her with empty eyes. I'm tired of arguing with her."Why did you do that when the engagement was finally happening?! All those years your brother had put into work has turned into this... Ha!" she said and stomped her feet. She wanted to do whatever she wanted there because everyone in this room was extremely loyal to her. They would not dare stab her in the back. I looked down because I
