–ALORA EUNICE’S POV–

"Alora... Babe... let's talk." Even in his formal attire and proper grooming, I still notice the traces of devastation on his face.

"No," I removed his hand and walked away.

Don't get easily swayed by his approach, Alora. His cheating issues are clear proof that he doesn't deserve to have a relationship with you. He is a red flag and I am not colorblind.

Oliver grabbed me again and this time, I felt the tightness from his grip. I want to vomit, just the thought of him touching me with that dirty hand of his who touched a lot of women.

"Alora! Please!"

I sighed in frustration because his raising voice caught other guests' attenti

  • The Knot of Marriage   CHAPTER 110

    —ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—“What if we just kidnapped them before they reached the wedding venue?” Marcus suggested.“Do you want to go to jail, man?” Franco asked, shaking his head because of Marcus' craziness.“It wouldn’t be considered kidnapping as long as the individual is willing, and we didn’t have ulterior motives,” Gaius explained.“See? Coming from our lawyer friend,” Marcus said, smiling from ear to ear. “The question is… is she willing to go?” Franco uttered and looked at us.“She will,” I said with confidence in my voice.These three are all willing to help me save my family. Franco’s the driver, I am at the passenger seat, and the two at the backseat. We tailed the white van and it did stop at the gasoline station as we presumed. Gaius’ plan did work. The back tires were flat.Marcus paid the innocent driver and the assistants.I opened the van and the first one I saw was the scared kid holding her mommy. I looked at Alora Eunice and she’s half-conscious. What’s going on? Sh

  • The Knot of Marriage   CHAPTER 109

    —ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—I cannot move—speechless after confirming what I thought was impossible…Damn… I have a son, and his name is Ray Archillus… De Herrera.“I am right! F*ck, I was right!” Gaius exclaimed while looking at the DNA result which he grabbed from my hand.“He’s five, Archi. He’s five… What's your plan?” Franco asked, waiting for my response. Plan? What plan? The fact that I have a son with Alora Eunice is such surprising news. My thoughts were still processing.“But you don’t want a kid, do you?” Marcus asked, frowning at me.“What the f*ck, man? It doesn’t mean he didn’t want a kid, he wouldn't take responsibility. That’s so coward, you dumb*ss,” Gaius scolded Marcus’ who doesn’t plan on getting married and building his own family. They argued but that’s the least of my concern. “Archi,” Franco called my attention. “Don’t tell me you wouldn’t—”“I need to talk to her,” I said flatly.“Yeah… that’s the first thing you need to do.”I coincidentally met Alora Eunice at

  • The Knot of Marriage   CHAPTER 108

    WARNING: Mature content, abuse (Read at your own risk)—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—“A-Archi,” I stuttered as I was surprised by this sudden interaction. This is the closest one so far since I came back. My heart pounded so loud that I am afraid he might hear if I wouldn’t step away from him. “I mean… Mr. De Herrera.”He looked away when I said that. I was so startled that those words just came out from my mouth. “T-Thanks,” I added.He fixed his wrinkled suit with a straight face and proceeded inside without a word. My lips formed into a thin line—I composed myself and went inside to meet my clients. In a most awkward coincidence, his table is just next to ours.I could easily see him in my peripheral view but I ignored him. I need to focus. Focus, Alora. You’re working.I was distracted again when a familiar face showed up and sat on the chair across Archi—I mean, Rome De Herrera. I should practice calling him by that name. He wouldn’t be pleased if he heard me again saying his nickname. I

  • The Knot of Marriage   CHAPTER 107

    —ALORA EUNICE’S POV—I was walking around the streets near the wedding gown boutique—worriedly crying—trying to dial my little Archi’s phone. Where is he? Why isn't he answering?It’s been an hour since he got missing! I swear, I will never forgive myself if something bad happens to him. “Where are you, Archi?” I mumbled to myself.My phone rang—the manager of the wedding gown boutique was calling. “Hello?”[“Ma’am, your son’s here.”]“Okay! I’ll be there,” I said, sighing in relief. I walked as fast as I could to turn back to the boutique. I saw my little Archi sitting inside the boutique waiting for me, and he’s with… Raña? Why are they together?“Mom!” Archi said the moment I opened the glass door. “Archi! Where have you been? Didn’t I tell you to stay here, hm? You made me so worried about you,” I couldn’t help but cry again while kneeling in front of him. I checked on him and thank goodness, he’s in a good shape. Nothing to worry about, I hope. But, nonetheless, I need to s

  • The Knot of Marriage   CHPATER 106

    —ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—Eight minutes before the encounter with the kid…“Mr. Reyes,” I said, upset with the poor presentation. My time is wasted.“Y-Yes sir?”“You and your team are all fired.”I already gave them chances and enough time to prove themselves yet, what did they do? Nothing. No improvement at all.“What’s my next schedule?” I asked my secretary, Gaille, who followed me behind after I left the presentation room. “You have a meeting with Mr. Ocampo in two hours, and a proposal review with the finance team at four.”“How about the contract papers?” I asked, glancing at my wrist watch—enough time to finish other work.“On your desk, sir.”My phone rang and I answered it.“Any update?” I asked Finn, my right hand.[“Sir, I apologize but–”]“Finn, I need that land. I want it. Do whatever it takes to possess the land. The cost is the least of my concern,” I sighed in discontentment.[“Sir, the land is not for sale and the owner strictly told us to forget about it.”]“Even if we

    —ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—“What is this? Trash? Fired,” I threw the folder and proceeded with my next meeting. “How about the renovations?”“Sir, they request for extension.”“What? It will open a week from now! I’m not paying them to slack off. Finish it as per the original plan or else they will pay.”“Yes, sir!”I entered the conference room and everyone proceeded to their designated seats as if they were astonished to see me here. Why? Am I not expected to be here?“In the past quarter, the sales didn’t hit the target market—”“What’s the use of a sales and marketing team, huh?” I asked sarcastically.“Sir, the competition—”“Competition?”“Online Market, sir. Most of the consumers and shoppers shift to online shopping—”“So what’s the remedy?”“Sir, we’re still—”“It’s a quarterly issue. No solution yet?”“Unfortunately—”“Three days. You all have three days to fix this before the investors complain,” I said, stood up and buttoned my suit. “But sir—”“Or else you are all fired.”“Si
