For the last time, I stared at myself from a body-length mirror and remembered the day I bought this long gown.
"Welcome to Estella, madam." The staff greeted me with a smile plastered on her face. "How may I help you?"
"Uhm..." I looked around to scan the shop. It has different fashion and my eyes stopped at the dress and gown section. Everything is stunning and eye pleasing. I really admire the fashion design of Estella. "I am looking for a gown. Hm... a champagne long gown. Is there any available?"
"Yes, madam. This way please..."
"Rose—oh. We have a customer." I turned and found myse

—ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—“I hate you.”“Alora—” I stopped midway when she slammed the door in front of me. Great! She’s mad at me. “That’s…” I frowned at Gaius who witnessed the whole argument between me and my wife, and as if he had something to say but he dared not. Alora Eunice’s stubborn sometimes and a bit spoiled—I can’t deny that.“What are you doing here?” I was not in the mood to talk to him. I loosened my neck tie and folded my sleeves until it reached my elbow.“Legal papers,” Gaius showed me the folder before putting it on my office desk. “I’ll read it later,” I said before opening my laptop and ignored his meaningful look. I don’t wanna here any sentiments from him now.“Alright,” he said, was about to leave but turned back to tell me something. “If I were you, I will go after her and—”“Leave, Gaius.” I firmly uttered, not giving him a glance. “You and your ego,” he said with sarcasm but he can’t change my mind.“You understand where I am coming from,” I said.“I know

—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—“Ah! Oh my gosh!” I threw the box somewhere and almost fell when I bumped my back at the edge of my office table but Evan quickly caught me.The foul smell of the dead rat inside the box reached my nose and I couldn’t help but feel nauseous and ran towards my private comfort room to vomit.“Alora…” I felt Evan’s hand holding my hair while I was still vomiting in the toilet bowl. After that incident, I felt that it absorbed my strength for the day and I just chose to leave the office and rest. On our way, I received a call from the helper at home. There’s a delivery which was addressed to me and needed immediate attention. I was thinking that it was the same as the one I received in the office and I wasn’t wrong.“Who the heck was behind that?” Evan asked while driving me home but I insisted on staying in a hotel nearby. I wanted to be alone. I wanted to go somewhere that the sender wouldn’t reach me today. “Does this frequently happen?”I shook my head as a resp

—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—Rome De Herrera’s Wife Seen Near Hospital Baby Ward, Sparking Adoption RumorsMy phone almost slipped from my hand the moment I read the article. What kind of rumor is this? They are questioning Archi’s reproductive health. Geez.One of them questioned mine. Spreading that I am barren that’s why I’m here at the hospital, allegedly and secretly adopting a baby. Gosh… these people and their love of gossip. My phone rang and I gulped before hitting the answer button and put the phone on my ear.[“What’s going on, Alora Eunice?”] Grandpa asked in a scary tone. “I…” I couldn’t form a sentence as if something was blocking the words in my throat.[“We need to talk. Come here to the mansion with your husband.”]I looked at the screen of my phone when Grandpa ended the call without hearing me out. I heavily sighed and looked at the little boy, quietly lying on his bassinet. “Thank you for being born healthy. Sorry for coming out sooner. It’s my fault,” I said as if the

—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—““What the hell is a kid doing in my company?!”“Mia!” I walked towards her and reached her as she ran to me. I lifted her and comforted her. “I’m here. It’s okay. I’m here… calm down, Mia. I’m here. It’s okay. I’m here.” I was caressing her small back while her little arms were wrapped around my neck. Everyone was silently watching me, and I felt a little uncomfortable with the situation, especially that Mia isn’t calming down. She’s trembling. She’s scared. Poor little one. I felt Archi’s gaze on me but I didn’t met his eyes for a reason. I know I said I will take responsibility but this is not what I mean. But yeah… I will face him later. After a few moments, she calmed down. Finally! Thank goodness. “I… I’m sorry for the trouble. She’s with me.” I said because I wasted their time. They all waited until the kid calmed down because Archi is so scary and no one can move and interrupt him.The businessmen and businesswomen cleared their throats before going f
The Knot of Marriage CHAPTER 76
—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—I was smiling from ear to ear as I am preparing for work today. I lacked sleep due to the workload that I finished last night but with the thought that Archi and I made up and on good terms again, I was too energized to feel exhausted.I wore the necklace he gave me last night and smiled at the vanity mirror—scanning my overall look before grabbing my hand bag. Archi went to work earlier because he has an early morning meeting with the board. On the other hand, I’m still at home—ready to go to the office.On my way to Escarra Furniture, I almost hit someone. Thank goodness, my quick reflexes are in good condition. I immediately removed my seatbelt and went outside to check on the person in front.“Oh my God! Are you alright?” I was too nervous because she was a pregnant woman with a little girl. I helped her stand and checked on her. Actually, I didn't bump into her thankfully but maybe due to shock, she went out of balance.“I… We… apologize, miss.” The pregnant

—ALORA EUNICE’S POV— “Do you love me?” I asked, facing him with hope in me that he’ll answer. I waited for him but he looked at me with something in his eyes I couldn’t explain. I felt a little sting in my heart as he looked at me so nonchalantly. “Forget it. I’m… I’m tired. I’ll rest.” I turned around and proceeded to go upstairs. He didn’t stop me. He didn’t say anything. He just… let me go. A week passed by so swiftly and just like that, we went on with our busy lives—nonstop and hectic schedules. I felt a little distance between us after that day but I’m afraid to confront him again. This is my fault… I shouldn't have asked him that. He would say it if he wanted to, right? Why did I ask? I don’t know. Maybe… the ‘first love’ thing triggered me but not enough for us to end up like this. “Have you read the proposal we sent to your company?” Archi asked in the middle of our dinner. For the first time in a while, we dined together and talked. “Ah, yeah. I’ll go to your compa
