Chapter 25"So, how's life treating you, Dave? My sources tell me you've got someone you're looking for," Das asked me."Your radar is always on point, Bro Das," James said."Shut up, James. Do you know that someone is going to look for you at Tita's mansion, and they say they're pregnant?" Das replied, making Ana turn to him."Oh, James, you need to fix the mess you've gotten yourself into. This will come out later, and the person you don't want to lose will find out," Ana warned him, making me raise an eyebrow at what I heard.I was about to speak when Ana's parents said they were going home first. Ana just nodded at her parents. Soon, we decided to go our separate ways, but as we were walking, the lights suddenly went out, causing chaos inside."Mommy!!!" my daughter Xenna cried."Where are you, Mommy!" Xenno called out to her. I panicked and immediately adjusted my eyes to the darkness. I saw the twins, still being held by Das. A few seconds later, the lights came back on, but Ana
Chapter 26My drive back to the mall wasn't long. As soon as I arrived, I went inside. My men were already waiting for me, taking care of the car. As soon as I entered, Das, James, and Alex greeted me."What's the news?" I asked them immediately."Negative. The CCTV footage is damaged. It seems like the person who kidnapped Ana deliberately destroyed it," Alex answered me."Did you try the ones outside the mall or in other buildings? Maybe you got some leads?" I asked them again."Yeah, bro. They're all broken," James answered, making me curse. Then I decided to call Kent and ask for his wife's help."Wait, where's Ms. Luna Perez?" I asked them."She left in a hurry," Das answered me, making us all look at Das."Why? Did I say something wrong?" he asked us."If she left in a hurry, it means she knows where Ana is?" James said to Das."Sh*t, why didn't we think of that!" Das said to us. "I'll call her." He immediately took out his phone to call Luna, but after several calls, she didn't
Chapter 27=A WRONG DECISION=One of my men guarding Ana's parents and my twins called, informing me that there were suspicious vehicles circling the area, all without license plates. Because of that, I immediately ordered James to inform the Dark Moon to protect Ana's parents. He decided to go to the place where the kidnappers took Ana. I didn't tell the Dark Moon because they might stop me. I brought 50 men to accompany me in rescuing my beloved. While they were going home, I also moved."Get ready, we're leaving!" I said to them."Yes, Boss!" they said in unison as they prepared their gear.I told them the location where the enemies were hiding. The vehicle we brought wasn't just any ordinary vehicle, so no matter how much they shot at it, it wouldn't be affected. Our journey took 4 hours until we reached the place."Black 01 was right. It's a dense forest where Ana was taken," I thought to myself as I scanned the area. My eyes stopped at a tall patch of grass, but it was different
Chapter 28For a week, we scoured Laguna to find Ana, but we were still unsuccessful."Bro, we should go home. The twins are looking for you," Kent said to me."No, I'm not going home yet. I need to find Ana," I said to Kent, but someone suddenly punched me, making me almost lose consciousness."F**k!" I muttered, then looked at the person who punched me. He had no right to hit me because I'm Dave Santiago, a Mafia Boss. "I'm not..." I didn't finish my sentence when I received another powerful punch. My vision blurred, but I needed to teach a lesson to the audacious person who dared to hit me. I was about to draw my gun, but a cold object pressed against my neck. If I moved wrong, my neck would surely be cut. So, I slowly raised my hands to move his katana away from my neck. Then I looked at the madman who did this to me. But when I looked, it was Black 01, or Sky, standing in front of me, his eyes dark. I couldn't read his mind because of the fear I felt towards him. I swallowed my o
Chapter 29Anastasia/Lovi POV"Tasyo, maybe it's best to take her to the hospital. The woman has been unconscious for four months," said a woman, her voice old. I wanted to get up, but I couldn't move my body."What if the people who did this to her are looking for her, Lucy!" a man said. He also sounded old. I opened my eyes, but my head suddenly ached as if it was splitting."Ahhhhh! It hurts!" I said, holding my head because of the intense pain. I didn't know what happened next.The next morning.I woke up again, but I couldn't remember who I was. Until an old woman entered, and I immediately asked her."Who are you? A-and who am I?" I asked her."Daughter, I'm Lucy," she answered me."W-why am I here? W-why can't I remember anything? Do you know me?" I asked her again. She shook her head and said,"Maybe your past was erased, and you were involved in what happened," she said to me. "Rest well, daughter. Get stronger first before I tell you how we found you," she added. I just nodd
Chapter 30Hearing what the man said, I immediately stopped and turned to him, studying him carefully. Maybe I would remember something about him, but nothing came to mind, not even a single detail."Oh well! I wonder if my memories will ever come back. Do I have a family, children, a husband? If I do, why hasn't anyone looked for me? Who am I really?" These thoughts ran through my mind as I returned to my work. I didn't even notice that Mom had been talking to me. If she hadn't tapped me, I wouldn't have noticed."My Daughter! Are you okay? You seem lost in thought!" she said to me, bringing me back to reality."Ah, sorry Mom, I didn't notice you. Did you say something?" I asked her, scratching my head."Oh, yes, Lovi. I said earlier that your Dad and I are going out for a bit. We're just going to the other land where we used to work. The new owner called the former workers there, so your Dad and I are going there," my Mommy Lucy said."Oh, is that so, Mom? Okay! Be careful," I said
Chapter 31I was about to enter our small kitchen in our karenderya when someone suddenly hugged me from behind. Startled, I immediately turned around and gave him a powerful kick to his crotch, making him gasp. But the group of women just laughed, seeming to enjoy what they witnessed."Ohhhhhh," was all that came out of the man's mouth as he held his crotch and jumped around, trying to reach his crotch. "My love, why did you kick me?" he said, wincing in pain, but still jumping around."And what right do you have to hug me? Hey, man, just because you're handsome and they say you're delicious, I don't care," I said to him. He was handsome, and he was yummy. Everyone who saw him would definitely fantasize about him secretly. "And don't call me my love because I don't love you. Are you crazy? I'm leaving. Nay, Tay, I'm going home first because I saw a CRAZY PERSON," I said to my Tatay and Nanay, rolling my eyes at the man in front of me."My love, it's me, Ana. Don't you remember me?" t
Chapter 32Dave POVIt's been 3 years. 3 years have passed, and we still haven't found her."Is it time to give up now?" I asked myself.Yes! The thought of giving up always lingered in my mind, but my heart dictated otherwise. I'm just grateful that I haven't seen my twins struggling or weakening because of their mother's absence. They are the ones who give me strength whenever I want to give up on life. My business almost went bankrupt, and I almost lost one of the twins. Luckily, she knew self-defense, so she escaped the attempted kidnapping."Boss! Everything we need to bring to Laguna is ready," my secretary said to me."Let's go!" I said to him. Even though my secretary is a man, I can only say that he is hardworking and always focused on his work.We were on our way to Laguna in my car, where I last saw Ana. I bought a piece of land there to build a mall. I'll name it C & S Mega Mall. We had been driving for three hours, and we reached our destination. I saw the whole land and

Chapter 24Dave POVI scratched my head as I watched her leave. After we ate at the restaurant, I immediately invited the twins. I wanted to make it up to them. We went to the mall, and the twins were an instant attraction. People were whispering and praising them."Dad, can we buy dress sandals, bags, and makeup?" Enna asked me."Dad, can you buy me some books?" Enno asked."Sure, babies, I'll buy you anything," I told them both."Yes!" they both said to me."Ah, what about you two? What do you want to buy?" I asked Ana's parents. They turned to me, smiled, and then turned back to the twins."Nothing, I'm happy enough with our grandchildren. Thank you, son," Ana's mother said to me.I stopped in my tracks because of what Ana's parents said. It made me even more determined to pursue Ana, even if she rejected me several times. I smiled at the thought."Are you okay, Daddy Dave?" my daughter asked."Yes, Baby Enna, I'm fine," I said to her as we walked towards the bookstore. Someone sud
