THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 48
Adrienne can't deny the unease she feels whenever she's with Ethan. It all started with his simple confession of love, a confession that surprises her because she was no longer single, technically. Avoiding Ethan has become challenging since they've grown closer; he feels like a sibling to her now. Despite this, she has been keeping her distance for a week, trying not to let her feelings complicate things.Everything Adrienne does seems to involve Ethan, and that's exactly what she's trying to avoid. She doesn't want to fall for him on the rebound or use him as a temporary distraction. Having experienced hope followed by disappointment before, she doesn't want to give him false hope either. She knows how it feels to be let down after putting her trust in someone, like what happened with Pedro, who didn't fight for her or listen to her in the end.Adrienne is currently in her office, diligently working on budget lists and checking her stocks while her son, Kent, sleeps peacefully in hi
THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 49
Two years ago, Adrienne poured her heart and soul into loving Pedro Lassiter, only to find herself lost in the process. Sacrificing everything for a man who saw her merely as a tool left her with bitter memories. Despite the hurtful encounters with her boss, she couldn't escape the foolishness that seemed to linger in her heart.But as the sun rose, Adrienne knew she had to shake off her bitter thoughts and focus on her responsibilities. She got up from the bed and walked over to the crib where her child, Kent, lay. Tomorrow, he would turn one year old, a living reminder of her unrequited love for Pedro Lassiter.The name Pedro Lassiter left a bittersweet taste on her tongue – her ex-boss and the cause of her heartache.

A fear
THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 50
Adrienne found it difficult to weigh her feelings. Was it really right to love with her heart when her mind said otherwise? She was scared that one day she would have to choose between Ethan and Pedro and break the other's heart.The day ended with neither Ethan nor Pedro around Adrienne. She went home with Claude driving her car, while Kent was already asleep in the backseat, securely fastened in his safety seat.Adrienne's face contorted in deep thought, remembering the chaos caused by the two men in her office earlier. She had never thought or wished to be fought over by two handsome, charming, and perfect men. Adrienne considered herself just an average woman, and if she hadn't been made over by Cathy, she would probably still look plain.But now, she was being fought over, and it didn't feel good for her. Sometimes, even though it's bad, she thought it would have been better if she had only one heart.She still loved Pedro, while there was a space in her heart for Ethan. Everythi

ADRIENNE felt something on her belly, and those were butterflies again.It has been a week since Pedro moved into her condo unit. The man really has luck on his side.How can Adrienne not say that? The next day, news of a typhoon was reported. The storm was too strong, and it lasted for four days. And now, there's another storm. Heavy rain outside.Every day when she wakes up, Pedro is already beside her. Because she's weak, she can't remove his arms wrapped around her every morning she wakes up.It's like with each passing day, her feelings for Pedro become more intense. Indescribable emotions. She's just falling even more for the man.The man who was embracing her woke up. So, her smiling lips quickly turned into a frown. Adrienne has become better at acting."Let go of me, Pedro. You've made it a habit to sleep beside me every morning, huh? What are you? Superstitious?" Adrienne scolded the man who just laughed and tightened his embrace."Well, I am lucky to have you. I just want t
THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 52
ADRIENNE knows how hard it is for her to give their love a second chance again. It's not easy for her to take the risk once more. She has loved and been hurt before, and now she's afraid to gamble again.She has experienced love, winning, and losing in this game. She's not sure if it's right for her to enter the world of the Lassiter family again. She is up against her greatest enemy, which is Pedro's own mother, the man she loves, Pedro.Now the day is bright, and Adrienne's business is back to its normal flow. There are no more rainy mornings and nights, so Adrienne's shop is now open. Everything seems to be back to normal except that Adrienne's stress has increased."For heaven's sake, Pedro! How can I enter that shop of yours when you keep on kissing me! You're like a rabbit!" Adrienne scolded the stubborn man.The complainer, Pedro, groaned childishly. "I'll pay you for one day, name your price," the mischievous man said.Adrienne hit Pedro with a pillow. "What's wrong with you,

Adrienne watched as Ethan drove away in his car. Then she went inside. Pedro was waiting for her there. He was wearing a tank top, and boxer shorts, and had a grumpy face."Oh? Why the sour face?" Adrienne asked, amused. Pedro took their child from her."Hug me," the man said with a hint of jealousy in his voice.Adrienne couldn't help but laugh. "Are you planning something?""That hug is out of the plan, but jealousy is an inevitable emotion. At least I can control my temper, right?" the man said. Adrienne kissed Pedro."You know, jealousy is normal in a relationship. But let me tell you something, it should be properly balanced. Because I might think that you don't trust me again, right? Pedro, I gave my love and life to you. If I can give something else, I will... I won't hesitate to say that I love you deeply.""God, what did I do to deserve you?" Pedro muttered gratefully."I also don't know what good karma I had."The next morning, Adrienne woke up to breakfast in bed. She could

Adrienne couldn't help but widen her smile. She saw how Pedro's friends were teasing their child."Hey! Be careful when carrying my child, okay?! Damn it, Gabriel! Don't make Kent into a basketball! I'll dribble you, just watch!" Pedro shouted, causing Adrienne to laugh.Adrienne lightly tapped Pedro. "Relax, don't you trust your friends?"The man sighed. "No."They were already in a hotel because it was too windy outside. They were currently in a function hall that they rented for a drinking session. That's how wealthy these billionaire bachelors were.Kent seemed to be crying, so Adrienne took him from the men. "Let me have my child for a moment. You've been teasing his cheeks too much," Adrienne said.For now, Adrienne and Pedro stayed in the hotel. They would be staying in Azura for one more week before flying back to Evermere.They had thought and planned everything, of course. They planned for Adrienne to hire someone to manage her business here. Cathy would also come with them
THE ALPHA IN DISGUISE CHAPTER 55
ADRIENNE faced her nightmare in front of her. She didn't know, but her feet froze in place on their own. She couldn't imagine her lover's mom coming to greet them with that evil smile."I'm not mistaken. My son has been missing for weeks just to be foolish with you again. This is something I cannot accept!" said the lady, looking at the child in Pedro's arms. "You have a child?" she added in surprise."Mom! Stop bothering us! I don't know where that anger is coming from! I don't care about what people will say, I don't care about our status differences. I love her, she's the mother of my child, and you won't be able to stop us," said Pedro.The anger of Pedro's mother was evident. Adrienne was scared, but she tried to gather herself. She shouldn't be intimidated. She had already experienced that before, and it wouldn't happen again."You don't know what you're saying, Pedro. Leave that woman alone, take your child and send her away. Never, like never, will I accept that woman in our f
