Clark's POV"How long will both of you keep this secret from me?" I asked in a low but dangerous tone. Bel didn't utter a word. She didn't even dare to look at me. She was looking straight at the road.I sighed. My grip on the steering wheel tightened, then I blew a horn whenever someone blocked my way."Geez, Clark! Calm down! We might get into trouble if you keep blowing a horn at the road," Bel couldn't help to interrupt.I punched the steering wheel in frustration when we got stuck in traffic."Fuck!" I exclaimed and hit the front of my head against the steering wheel repeatedly."Clark–""Damn it, Bel! Tell me the truth! She's a prostitute, isn't she?!"Bel looked away. She shifted her gaze to the window. She slowly nodded in a reply that made my heart hurt."Are you a prostitute too?"She just silently nodded again as a response. I took a deep breath and looked at the road. There was one thing left that needed to be confirmed."Does Angela happen to be Magda in the entertainment

Mental health matters. **** “Where are you going, huh?" my boss asked and laughed evilly. I cried badly. I didn't know what to do.I screamed in horror when one of his guards held both of my hands, just to refrain me from punching them to escape. His companion hovered over me. He licked his lips devilishly while staring at my body. He looked like a crazy dog who wanted to take a bite."P-please! D-don't! Let me go..." I pleaded while tears were freely streaming on my face."Too late, Magda. It's unfair to Kenny if you're not going to receive a punishment, right?" he asked innocently and dragged his office chair near to the sofa where I am lying. He sat there and held his manhood. He started to masturbate.I tried to withdraw my hands from the grip of the guard and I succeeded. I quickly punched the body guar
I shut my eyes and put both my hands on each side of my ear when he pointed his gun in my direction. I'm not ready to die yet. My siblings need me.The next thing I knew, I heard two executive gunshots echoing in the four corners of the room. I was startled in shock and my heart pounded so hard.Did he shoot me?I asked in my mind while my eyes still closed. It took me a few seconds before I opened it.My eyes widened in shock and terror after I saw the two guards lying on the floor, lifeless. They had gunshots on their heads. The thick red blood running on the floor.I shivered in terror at what I saw. I broke into tears. Seeing three dead bodies on the floor made me feel like I was going insane. Add the crimson red blood running on the floor and was about to reach my feet. I quickly moved away from my feet just not to let the blood touch my skin.I shakingly looked at my boss who happens to be my father. He smiled devilishly while his gun pointed at me. I shook my head many times jus
[Police and ambulance sirens]"Don't move!"[Repetitive gunshots]Clark's POVI cried my heart out as I hugged Angela tightly. Seeing her naked due to being gang-raped with those devils makes my heart crushed into pieces. I shouted and cried in anger. Anger for the devils who did these inhumane things to her, anger for coming late, anger for not saving her as soon as possible, and anger for not being by her side all the time to protect her.I promised her before that I will protect her at all costs. But at what happened I could say I failed.This time, I couldn't see any but God. I looked outside the window just to see the dark gray sky. I kept on thinking about why he let these things happen to us. Why did he let these unfortunate things happen to Angela? Does she deserve to receive this unfortunate life? Does she?"Please...""Why?" I asked in agony while crying, asking the father in heaven why this happened. Begging him to give me an answer to my questions so that I could breathe fr
"Choose Clark. Choose so that I'll not be having a headache anymore in arguing with you about that woman.""Choosing her or wealth is just like you are choosing her or me," my mom added which makes me gulp in dilemma.Choosing between the two is so hard. I held my head with both hands and brushed my hair out of frustration. I had a problem and it is the condition of Angela then now, this? It added to my stress.My eyes were teary as I looked at my mom. I didn't want to do this but I know she will understand whatever I am going to answer in the long run.I breathed deeply and released the air in my lungs slowly just to make me calm. I remembered Bel said that if you are calm, you can think straight."Once you choose that woman over me, never step on my property. I am completely disowning you in case you choose her. But when you choose wealth, you will not talk to her anymore and you'll marry Natasha. I'll send you back to States to run our business there together with your wife-to-be a
Clark’s POV“So… Just stay here for a while?” Bel asked when we had finally arrived at Angela’s house. The doctor already let Angela stay at home while taking medication for fast healing after one week of getting confined in the hospital.I sighed and sat opposite Bel’s direction.“Yeah. If it is okay—”“Of course, Clark! It’s okay. Feel free. You are welcome here. I know Angela would love that,” Bel assured in a concerned voice. Tears escaped from my eyes in her warm welcome. I quickly wiped it away.I suddenly remembered my mum.Bel tapped my shoulder which made me look in her direction.“Everything is gonna be okay, Clark. If you have anything you need, I’m one call away,” she offered, then stood up from her seat.She was about to leave the house but stopped when I called her.She averted her gaze back to me and approached my direction with curiosity on her face.“What is it, Clark? Is there anything you want to say?” she asked in a concerned voice then sat again on the vacant chair
After taking a bath, I quickly approached my baggage just to find a formal suit. When I'm done tidying up, I quickly left the room and went to Angela's room.As I entered, I saw Maymay looking at her big sister Angela who was sleeping on the bed. I could see the sadness on the child's face.I took a deep breath and released it slowly. I knocked on the door just to get the child's attention and I succeeded.She quickly wiped away her tears and cleared her throat."Sir Clark," she uttered in a weak voice. I walked to approach her. I sat on the bed next to Maymay and glanced at Angela."She will be fine soon, Maymay," I reassured her and averted my gaze back to the child. She lowered her gaze. It looked like she was embarrassed to show her weakness in front of me.Without any hesitation, I hugged her tightly which made her break into tears. She hugged me back while crying her heart out.She was so broken by what happened to her big sister. Even though she didn't know the real reason why h
"It is so refreshing to see you here in my office. The day I became a shareholder in your company, you never visited me, Sir Clark," he uttered then chuckled again.I felt embarrassed and angry at the same time. I was now applying to this old man's coffee shop."Actually, I received an email from your mom saying don't bother to accept you if you ever seek a job at our business firm."I gulped and clenched my fist. No wonder how he got that email. My mother knows him well too.Mr. Montenegro stared at me deeply then after, he sighed. He put his both hands on the top of his office table and intertwined them."Are you aware that finding a job in this country is tough for you?" he asked.I cleared my throat and sat up straight."Yes. I'm aware," I answered and it earned a smirk from him."Your mom is so powerful. It's a wrong move to disobey her. Choosing a prostitute woman instead of your mother," he commented that making me grit my teeth."You don't know anything, Mr. Montenegro. If you
