Chapter 73
JAN’s mother rushed to him and hugged him as she cried. Kate was hoping for a better reunion than that. But what could she do when it was not the case? Now, her husband seemed to be mad at him. He saw her and their daughter with Fernan. It made her think she had betrayed him. If Jan would only know the amount of pain she endured for years while he was gone. But he would not listen to her. His mind must have been clouded with emotions, and he could not think rationally at that moment.
“Oh… Jan,” his mom cried.
“M-mom…”
Kate’s forehead creased when she saw how Jan seemed to be having second thoughts if he would hug his mother back. And then, she came up with a conclusion. However, she kept it to herself. She should listen to whatever Jan would say first.
She then turned in the direction of her father-in-law. Unlike his wife, he looked more composed. Well, they needed someone like that at that moment. She cou

JAN tossed and turned to the bed, but no matter what he did, he still could not sleep. That day, he remained in his parents’ home. Even Katherine and her daughter were there, except for his brother. No one knew where Fernan went. He must have escaped or out there, cooling down. Winona had been calling him all night, and he did not answer her calls. Jan just sent his friend a message, telling her that everything would be fine in time. She did not respond. Perhaps she accepted and respected his decisions. However, he seemed to regret what he did.He acted out of his raging emotions that made things worst. Maybe he should have followed Winona’s suggestion; to stay away and observe.Soon, Jan decided to leave the room. He went downstairs to get something to drink from the bar, hoping that it would help him fall asleep. But it seemed that he was not the only one who had difficulty sleeping that night because he found his father sitting on a stool as he sipped so

“WHEN will we get the result?” Jan’s father asked the laboratory staff who came to their house to get the DNA samples.“It usually takes two to three weeks if there are no weather disturbances and other delays. Don’t worry. We will inform you immediately once the result is out,” the staff responded politely.“Thank you so much,” Jan said and shook hands with the staff.His father walked the staff out of the house afterwards. And now, it’s just the two of them in the living room. Kate rose from her seat and sauntered towards him.“J-Jan…” She held his hand. “Are you still mad at me?”“Katherine…” He heaved a sigh and shook his head. “I shouldn’t be mad at you, right? Dad had cleared your name. He told me it was his fault. But…”“But what?” she probed.“I don’t know.” Jan let out

KATE stood by the foyer with her eyes fixed in the direction of the gate. She was waiting for Jan to come home. He left before sunset when she had just arrived from work. Jan did not mention where he would go, and she did not dare ask. But now, Kate’s anxiety was tearing her apart. She feared that her husband would not come back just like the last time.“Katherine?”She turned behind her and saw Jan’s mother walking in her direction.“Mom.” She managed to flash a smile.“What are you doing here, hmm?” Her mother-in-law caressed her arm.“I’m waiting for Jan, Mom.” Kate heaved a sigh and turned in the direction of the doorway again. “He left this afternoon and… I don’t know where he is.”“Jan told me he’s going to meet Winona.”She suddenly felt a pang of jealousy in her chest. Jan did not even remember his feelings for her. Wha

SHE opened her eyes when she felt butterfly kisses showering her face. Kate smiled immediately when she saw it was Jan.“Good morning,” he said and kissed her deeply afterwards.Her brows furrowed when she realized that her husband was acting as though they did not argue last night. Was he too drunk last night and he did not know what he was doing? Did he already forget about it?“Tell me… have you forgotten what happened last night?”“Which of the two?” he countered.Kate pressed her lips firmly. Ah, it seemed that he did not forget about everything.Jan sat up and leaned against the headboard. He looked down at her, and his fingers started creating circles at her bosom. Kate closed her eyes and moaned softly. What he was doing was already arousing… for her.“I had a dream last night,” Jan said after a while.“About what?” She did not take her eyes off h

KATE sipped her wine as she sat on the bench in the garden. She went there after putting her daughter to sleep. She thought some fresh air would help her feel sleepy, but it did not do much.“I told you, you should join me in bed from now on,” Jan said as he sat down beside her.“And then I’ll keep running back to Angelique before she wakes up in the morning? Nah.” She chugged down the remaining wine on her glass and put it down. “That set-up is hassle—”“Then perhaps you should teach her to sleep on her own….” He buried his face in her neck and sniffed her scent. “The bed feels so huge and lonely without you by my side.”Kate chuckled when she felt his tongue graze the sensitive flesh of her neck.“I didn’t know that your amnesia has this kind of—” He bit her neck. “Jan!”“Ssshhh…” He snaked his arm around he

KATE hid the file folder in her family’s ancestral home before going to Jan’s parents’ place. She had to hide it somewhere far from everyone who must not see it in the meantime. She must keep the secret until the right opportunity to tell everyone comes. His family had been through a lot lately; she did not have the heart to add another problem.She dipped herself in the bathtub while enjoying a bottle of champagne, hoping that it would relax her mind and body. It was her only escape since she could not go somewhere far away to unwind.“This is one of the things that I miss about you.”Her gaze reverted to the door when she heard Jan’s voice. She found him leaning against the doorframe. His eyes were glistening with admiration as though she was the most beautiful woman in the world.“If you’re going to join me for a bath, please turn off the light.” She took a huge gulp of champagne.“And

KATE was at the venue of their company’s commercial shoot that day. She left her phone in the car and eventually forgot to get it, for she was too occupied with supervising the shoot.“Is it alright if we retake that one? I think it will look better if we take the shot from the left angle. What do you think?” she told the director.“Oh, Katherine! You do have a good eye!” the director said after taking another look at the video they shot. “Let’s roll another take of this one.”The director immediately prepared for another shoot.She sat on a bench as she waited for the shoot to happen. That was when her secretary came to her, rushing.“Is there something wrong?” Bianca handed her her phone. “A call from your in-laws’ residence, Ma’am. It’s urgent.”“Hello…” Kate said nervously. Could it be that something happened to her husband again?

JAN’s mother decided to hold a one-day funeral for his father. After that, he was taken to his final resting place. Fernan did not show up, and Kate only heard from Winona that he had been locking himself inside his hotel suite and would not talk to anyone. She knew what he did was wrong, but then… she could not help but worry about him. Fernan’s situation was not easy, and there was a possibility that his mental state was at stake. She wanted to check on him, but a lot of reasons were holding her back. In the end, Kate decided not to see him and just wait until their paths crossed again. And as for her husband, Jan was another problem. He had been locking himself inside the guestroom. He has barely eaten a decent meal since his dad died and only filled his stomach with different liquors his hand would have a hold. The Villamar brother’s coping mechanism was too far from their mother’s. After her husband’s funeral, Madam Martina went on a vacatio
