Cassandra

To break the awkward silence, I spoke up. “I’ll make some coffee,” I said.

I walked over to the counter and picked up a cup. I could still feel the nervousness in my chest; it felt like a drum was beating inside.

They were both standing right behind me, not moving, which made me even more nervous.

I boiled some water. My hands were trembling while I waited for it to boil. I wondered if they noticed.

“Calm down,” I whispered to myself.

Once the water boiled, I hurriedly poured it into

    Cassandra“Cassandra,” he said, standing in front of me. “Can I ask for your help?”“What is it, Sir?” I asked.He didn’t answer right away. He just stood there and walked toward the stairs. “Just follow me.”I wanted to refuse. I didn’t know why, but there was something odd about his tone. But he was Sir George’s son. I didn’t want them to think I was arrogant or acting like I owned the place. So, even though I was nervous, I followed him.I remained silent as we went up; the only sound was our footsteps. When we reached his room, the door was slightly ajar. He walked straight in. I followed but stopped at the doorway.I could hear the sound of water running in the bathroom.“Sir?” I called out.“I’m in here,” he replied from inside. “Cassandra, come in.”I swallowed hard. I didn’t know what to expect. Slowly, I approached the bathroom and peeked inside.My eyes widened.Gabriel was naked, showering. I immediately looked away.“S-Sir!” I said, my voice trembling. “Why did you—”“Just

  • My secret lover is my mother's husband (English Version)   Chapter 9 – Old Love

    CassandraI woke up early the next day. I hadn't slept well, anyway; what I’d heard the night before kept playing over and over in my mind. So, I decided to go downstairs and help in the kitchen to take my mind off things.When I arrived in the kitchen, the helpers were already there.“Good morning,” I greeted Manang Imelda, Manang Carol, and Kara.“Good morning, dear,” Manang Imelda replied.Manang Carol was busy chopping vegetables, while Kara—who was around my age—was quietly arranging plates. She was the only one I smiled at genuinely; I could sense that the other two were fond of gossip.“It’s good you came down,” Manang Imelda said. “We rarely see you here in the kitchen.”“I just wanted to help,” I said.I grabbed some eggs and started cracking them into a bowl. I stayed quiet, just listening to them.Before long, they started chatting again.“Sir Gabriel has arrived,” Manang Carol said.“Yes,” Manang Imelda replied. “He’s so handsome. He looks like a movie star.”I didn't say

In my agitation, my grip on the kettle slipped, and hot water splashed onto my hand.“Ouch!” I cried out.It felt like fire touching my skin. It stung and hurt terribly.“Cassandra!” Don George exclaimed.He rushed over quickly. Gabriel was right there with him.“Are you okay?” Don George asked, immediately taking hold of my hand.“Yes—ah—but it hurts,” I said.He pulled me toward the sink and held my hand under the cold running water. He was holding my hand himself.“You have to be car

  • My secret lover is my mother's husband (English Version)   Chapter 7 – Playboy

    CassandraI woke up early the next day.I wasn't able to fall back asleep after thinking all night. My mind was a mess—about Don George, about what happened between us, about the arrival of his son, and about things I shouldn't be thinking about that kept entering my brain anyway.I got up and took a bath. When I stepped out of my room, the whole mansion was still quiet. It seemed like everyone was still asleep, even the helpers. I thought about making some coffee.When I reached the kitchen, I grabbed the coffee maker. I put in water, coffee, and sugar. While waiting for it to boil, I leaned against the counter.It was quiet. Only the sound of the machine could be heard.My mind started wandering again. I didn't know why ever since Gabriel arrived yesterday, there seemed to be a strange vibe in the house. It felt like the atmosphere suddenly grew heavy. The kind of feeling where you can't stay still even when you're not doing anything.I picked up my cup and poured some coffee. I sme

  • My secret lover is my mother's husband (English Version)   Chapter 6 – Daddy’s Son

    CassandraI slowly approached the stairs. I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but I heard voices in the living room, so I stopped. The voice was different. It didn't belong to Manang or the guards.I peeked a little. I saw Don George sitting on the sofa. In front of him was a man who looked exactly like him—but younger. It was as if their faces were cast from the exact same mold.He was fair-skinned, had a sharp nose, and dressed well. He wore a white polo shirt and slacks. He looked like he had just come from work. Clean-cut. The type of guy who would make you look twice when you saw him.I couldn't help but stare at him.“I’m okay here, Gabriel,” Don George said. “I have maids here, son, and I also have a therapist.”Gabriel.So he really is his son.“Dad,” the man answered, “I'm a doctor. I know what you need better. It's not a bad thing to have someone stay here with you.”His tone sounded pleasant, but he was obviously being insistent.“I'm not alone,” Don George replied. “I'm fine.”“Wh

  • My secret lover is my mother's husband (English Version)   Chapter 5 – Extreme Attraction

    CassandraIt was as if I finally snapped back to reality, so I immediately chugged the liquor and poured myself another glass. It occurred to me then that mom was probably never honest with me either when she went abroad to work.She probably wasn't being abused by her employer because they were cruel; it was likely her own fault because she was stealing from them.Our drinking session with Don George continued until we had finished almost three expensive bottles.“Don't you have a wife? I don't know anything about your life, whereas for sure mom has already told you about our past,” I asked.He took a drink before refilling our glasses, “My first wife is dead. I have two children, but we don't get along. They didn't grow up with me; they lived with my in-laws since they were little. They never even treated me like a father, but until now, they're still using my money.”I waited to see if he would say more, but he stopped, so I didn't ask further because I didn't want to be nosy, plus
