—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—

I don’t know what to feel at the moment. As if my whole body went cold. I know… I already accepted the fact that Archi doesn’t want a child but who would have thought that this will happen and there is not really a chance for me to have one.

I took a day off from work and cried myself out inside our bathroom. I spent hours under the warm water of our bathtub—hugging my knees, sometimes holding my flat tummy. Tears kept falling until I got tired of crying.

After hours of sulking inside the bathroom, I wore a bathrobe in front of a mirror. I looked closely at my face and looked at my puffy reddish eyes. Archi would ask if he noticed this.

“Ma’am, you have a visitor.”

Visitor? I thought no one’s allowed to visit our home as long as the case isn’t solved yet.

“Who is it?” I said, confused.

“It’s Ms. Raña, ma’am.”

Oh…

“Let her wait in the living room. I’ll just put on some clothes.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

I went to the walk-in closet and chose comfortable clothes to wear.

    —ALORA EUNICE’S POV—We rushed to the hospital after the incident happened inside the mall. Oliver received a large cut on his arm when he tried saving me from the attacker. I was so worried that I couldn’t help but cry when the blood didn’t stop from dripping. I felt Oliver’s trembling hand covered with blood holding mine. “Shh… this is… just…” he groaned and looked at his arm with pain in his expression. “… just a small cut.”“Shut up. It isn’t just a minor one,” I said. I waited not so far from the emergency room going back and forth. Someone’s after my life again. What kind of grudge do they have for my family that I am their number one target?“Alora!” I heard Archi’s echoing voice through the hallway. It was my first time seeing him this too rushed and worried. He immediately reached for me and hugged me tightly. I felt his heavy breathing as I rested in his embrace. This will always be my safe place. “Are you okay?” Archi held both of my cheeks and looked at my eyes, scann

    WARNING: Mature content (Read at your own risk)—ALORA EUNICE’S POV—It took me a month to fully recover from the death threat incident. Now, I am always tailed by the private guards Archi hired, and I am thankful for that.“Good morning, ma’am!” The security guards greeted me the moment I entered De Herrera Empire main building. Everyone seemed to give me respect whenever they met me. I’m on my way to the conference room for the biggest project I’ll be handling this year. “Have you seen Mrs. De Herrera earlier, she’s really gorgeous. No wonder our boss fell so hard for her.” I heard the clear whispers of the employees in the lift. I am in the corner and no one noticed my presence.“Isn’t their marriage arranged? It doesn’t look like that, right? They are so in love.”“Really?”“Yes. Haven’t you heard that Mrs. Hernandez of the Marketing Department was rehired because of our boss’ wife?”“True! No one can change Mr. De Herrera’s decision but girl, Mrs. De Herrera is such a power.”“I

    —ROME ARCHILLUS’ POV—It has been hours since Alora Eunice was transferred to the ICU but she’s not waking up.“Alora… please, wake up. I’m sorry. I should have asked you. I should have put my pride and ego aside. If only we’re not in a quarrel, you won’t hesitate to tell me that you’re receiving threats. I’m sorry, please, open your eyes. Look at me,” I slightly squeezed her hand, silently crying.“Rome…” dad Euren entered the room and tapped my shoulder. “Rest. I will stay with her.”“I don’t want to leave her.”“She’ll be worried if you don’t take care of yourself. You know, your health comes first. My daughter will be disheartened.”“But…”“We will do shifts. I will call you immediately when she wakes up.”I sighed and didn’t argue. I kissed her forehead before leaving.I saw a familiar face outside the ICU.“S-Sir…” it was Mrs. Hernandez, the one I fired. “Can we talk for a moment?” I asked, kind of exhausted. “Is Alora okay?” She asked as we walked down the hallway. “She hasn

    —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
