[AFTER 3 MONTHS...]....Diana Rose POV-After I fixed Miracle, Ronald came right into our room.“Dad!”Miracle ran towards Ronald, who immediately picked up Miracle.“My baby got prettier,” Ronald said and then he kissed Miracle on the forehead.Ronald also approached me, then he gave me a peck of a kiss on the cheek. “Good morning, hon.”“Good morning too... Hon...” Ronald has been calling me that endearment for three months now, but I still can’t get used to calling him that.“You don’t have to force yourself to call me that, especially if you are not comfortable.” “Sorry...” I didn’t know that Ronald was aware of that.“You have nothing to apologize for, Diana.”Ever since we moved to Europe, Ronald and I with my daughter, whom he also considers his daughter—Miracle, I still haven’t regretted my decision.In the past
Diana Rose POV-As a professional and as a woman, I did not sabotage Isabelle’s make-up. I also did not hold back from doing her makeup since her makeup artist was not there. I still did everything I could to dominate her beauty even more.“Wow, you’re superb at makeup, Diana. No wonder—nevermind.”I think Isabelle was about to say in admiration of how I did my makeup during our senior high days.“If only I knew I would see you on my wedding day, I would make you my bridesmaid. I’m still your friend, right?”How could she ask that after she saw how I begged before because of her?“About that, little cute girl, Miracle, right?”“Close your eyes first.” I ordered coldly.After I sprayed the settings spray it dried and it was done.“You can go to the pictorial.” I said.“Diana, is Alex the father—”“No.” I cut off her question.Miracle might hear and wonder why Isabelle asked that.“Good.” Isabelle seemed to feel better. “She looks five years old. I thought I had ruined a family.”I clu
Diana Rose POV-THREE DAYS HAVE PASSED since Isabelle and I talked.I apologized to Isabelle for what happened to her because of what I did to her before, that she got involved in the hasty step I took.Isabelle, forgive me for what I did. She even thanked me because if she hadn’t been here in Europe, she wouldn’t have met the one he married.We even exchanged contact numbers. Also she made sure that she won’t tell Alex that I’m here, even Andrew and Zennie assured me they won’t tell Alex that I’m here because they don’t want to interfere.“Mommy, I want that milk.”Today is our grocery day. Ronald should be with us when we go grocery shopping because it is also one of the three of us bonding.We actually set aside a day for this day, but Ronald had an emergency meeting, so he just drove us here. He made sure that he would fast up so that he could still bond with Miracle.“Let’s buy your snac
Alex POV-I stopped reading the business proposal and looked at my secretary, who caught my attention.“What did you say, Erwan?” I ask him while glaring at him.I noticed him swallowing and breathing deeply, a sign that he was nervous. He should be, because I didn’t like what he said.“I have to reschedule your flight this coming Friday and make it Saturday morning because you have an urgent meeting, sir.”“Cancel that meeting or re-schedule that meeting. You know, going to Europe every Friday until Sunday morning is my only rest.”“But sir—”I looked more closely at Erwan.“Copy sir. Cancel or reschedule the meeting. There should be no schedule from Friday to Sunday morning. I will go first, sir.”When Erwan came out, there was another person who entered. I didn’t even bother talking to Andrew. I have to finish all my work now.I don’t know if I should be grateful that Andrew h
*[FIVE YEARS AGO...]*......Alex POV-I waited for Diana to tell me her secret, too. I waited for her to trust me like how she trusted Andrew but it ended up that I did everything to make her feel I can do everything for her, that I can gamble everything for her until I gave her last chance at the white night holiday ball.As I expected that day, no other students went to the garden, so I carried out my plan. I decorated the garden with many lights, a table for two, foods that I often see her eating. Above all, I even bought fresh strawberries from Baguio, Philippines.When the night came I stayed here in the garden to wait for Diana but it didn’t take long, I went to the entrance and as I was going to the close gymnasium I saw Diana, her beauty was not the only thing that caught my attention if not as well as what she is holding. That’s why when he went inside and no one was looking, I took what s
PROLOGUE … … …. .... After my teacher gave the report card to Nanny, we left the school, then went straight to our service car. Getting into the car, I asked Nanny for my report card. At first, she didn’t want to give it to me, but I insisted, eventually she gave it to me too. When I handed the report card, I gasped when I saw the result of my report card. I gripped my report card. When we got home, I saw Daddy and my older brother talking, while Daddy was holding my older brother’s report card. They were both laughing. Daddy looks happy with the result of my older brother’s report card. I was about to go straight to my room when we heard Mommy’s voice, and she called me. I could have done nothing but approach them. “Is that your report card?” Mommy asked me, pointing at the report card I’m holding. I just nodded. I didn’t want to show my r
An eyebrow like a caterpillar, check. Big eyeglasses, check. Pimples with some acne, check. Big nose, check. Broken tooth, check. Super messy-messy hair, check. Before getting out of the car, I looked again at myself in the small mirror I was carrying. “Is this me?” I asked myself as I checked my appearance. “Yes, Ma’am. You are that. If I were you, I would have come down so that you would not be late on your first day.” I was blown away by what Mr Driver said. I think because of my looks, other students will make fun of me or maybe will not be friends with me for how I look. I hid my little mirror in my bag. I grabbed my bag and got out of the car. When I left in the car, I went straight to the campus. When I enter, I walk around campus first. This campus is very big, especially that open field, which can be visited during lunch break and break time. There is also a mini garde
PATRICE MAURICIO ‘s P.O.V. My smile is so very wide, I feel like my lips will be… “Maybe your lips will be torn up,” Brena whispered to me. “Also, is this how you like math? And that makes you smile that wide?” Brena whispered, laughing at me. “No. I don’t like math. I’m even weaker when it comes to math.” I whispered back to Brena. “Then why is that? Why are you so wide with your smile?” I smiled up to my ears. No. maybe, beyond my ear. How can I not smile widely? I just found out that the future fiancé I’m looking for and, my Prince Charming, is one!! “Patrice!” I touched my cheeks. It’s heated. I’m not in pain. The steam from the aircon isn’t hot, but I feel like my cheeks are red just thinking of my future fiancé. “Miss Patrice!” I want to calm down. But how? Just behind me sat John Andrew Cabrera. “Miss Patrice Mauricio!”
