CHAPTER 41
"Good morning, my Giovanna!" I said to the baby, who was sitting in a baby stroller. Silver delivered it last night.
I kissed her chubby cheeks. We are in the garden watching the mountains, birds, and blue skies together. I was startled when someone kissed me on my cheeks. It was the jerk.
"Good morning, babe. Good morning to my baby girl," Giovanni said; she giggled at what she heard from her father.
"I know who is her favorite now," Giovanni said. I fake my smile at him and look at my baby girl. She smiled at us. "She loves to smile," Giovanni commented. I nodded.
"Sandro sent me her detailed information and her monthly check-up. Everything is good," Giovanni said and pinched her chubby cheeks. "That's good to know," I responded.
"Are you not going to work today?" I asked him.
"I am on sick leave. Between you and I, who should be at the office now?" he asked as he wiggled his eyebrows. I stomped my feet

In the afternoon, everything is peaceful and quiet inside our house while I tap Giovanna's chubby legs to make her sleep. Giovanni is rushing to go outside, and I watch him disappear. My daughter and I are in the living room while Giovanni is inside his home office.My forehead creased when I saw some of his men enter the front yard. I can't leave my daughter inside her crib. My curiosity was killing me, but I didn't let it win because I feared my baby would wake up. I heard some sounds of trucks.Later, I saw the men carrying furniture and going inside our house."What are these for?" I asked them."These are for Giovanna, Ma'am," one of them answered. I look at Giovanni, who just went inside carrying a big box.I never saw Giovanni carry that box, not even the small one! I am surprised and, at the same time, amazed because I can see how he puts so much effort into becoming a father to our child."Are you

My whole body is sore from our extreme activities last night that lasted until dawn. I groaned when I felt the pain in between my thighs. My eyes widened when I saw the time mounted on the wall. "Oh my gosh!" I reacted.I get Giovanni's bathrobe beside me to wrap around my naked body. I stood up, but I fell on the floor. "Ouch!" I reacted. After the pleasure, here comes the pain! I will kick Giovanni later. "Let me carry you, babe," Giovanni said, carrying me in a bridal style. I snorted. "You should've gone gentle on me," I said to him while heading to the bathroom. "I did, babe," he patiently said to me, but I just rolled my eyes on him. He put me down on the edge of the bathtub. "Should I bathe you, or you can do this alone?" he asked. "Giovanni, how's my baby girl?" I asked him. "Hansel is taking care of her for a while because I need to assist her, Mommy," he said and winked at me. I gave him a light punch on his chest. "Don't tell me you told that in front of Hansel?" I aske

Inside the four corners of the room, there are books, files, and figurines placed perfectly inside the cabinets. There's a medium chandelier placed above the ceiling, and the aircon is at a suitable temperature, but my blood boils.Grey is kneeling in front of me with his hands together. "Forgive me, Thalia," he pleads. "You betrayed me, Grey!" I said to him.Giovanni told me everything he learned from Grey. "I am caught off guard, Thalia. Your husband is something!" he said as he looked at Giovanni standing while holding a book. "He threatened me that he would deport me to the Philippines!" he added.I rolled my eyes. "Did you not believe me when I told you I got your back?" I asked him. He looked down as he pouted. "I believed you, but I don't want to put you both in turmoil because of me," he muttered."So you chose to betray me?" I asked him mockingly."It's not like that, Thalia, I swear!" he pleaded.

Giovanni remained in his position and it's been there for hours, he is silent but I can hear his small sobs that break my heart. He needs to release all his emotions. I can see him wiping his tears and his shoulders are moving. I stood up to give him a glass of water. "Drink water, Giovanni," I calmly said to him as I stood in front of him. He look up at me, and my eyes became soft and teary-eyed. I can see how broken he is. There's so much pain in his eyes. His hand is shaking as he gets the glass from my hand. "Giovanni," I called him. "D-Don't tell me to stop crying. The pain is so unbearable," he said as he closed his eyes. He dropped the glass to the floor and it breaks. I immediately pick up the portions of the broken glass. "Just like these pieces, they are like trust. It is broken and you can't unbreak it," he spoke out. "Yes," I firmly said. I pick up the pieces of broken glass and bring a towel to gather the tiny

I looked at Hansel and the rest before knocking on the door. As I knocked twice, I twisted it. The room welcomes me with silence and a peaceful night. There are dim lights on the ceiling. I closed the door lightly afraid that I'll disturb the peaceful sleep of my daughter. On her crib's left side, I saw Grey who is sleeping on his chair.Although, the chair was customized to use it for sleeping. I took a deep breath, and approach him to poke his right cheek. He shoved my finger away and so I repeat it. His right eye opens slightly, and he looks surprised by my appearance. He gulped and shook his head. "Hello, Grey," I greeted him without a smile. He looks at me with a nervous smile. "T-Thalia, let me explain carefully," he immediately said. He knows his fault and so it must be. "I hate what you did, Grey," I said as I sit down on another chair beside him. I crossed my arms above my chest. "You betrayed me instantly," I added. He bows his head. "I apologized for my betrayal, Thali

My head hurts as I stare at my monitor's screen, I am reading the information of the man we found. He was once a janitor in the company of Giovanni. But he was fired because of being an informant from the other competing company. I nodded. The thing is some of his information is private. I want to know if he is connected to any groups. I have a strong feeling that he is a member of a certain group. It is past three in the morning, and I can't fall asleep yet but I need to sleep. So, I stand up and carry my laptop. I close the door. Giovanni is still sleeping and I yawned. He moved so I look at him, and he is like having nightmares. I went to his side to get the jar in his hand. "Stay away from me!" he shouted, so I was startled. He open his eyes quickly and formed his fists ready to fight. "Hold on, Giovanni! I am Thalia!" I said to him. His breathing became slow, and his eyes calmed down. "I thought you're an enemy," he said. "I will become your enemy once you broke the small ja

"Hello, to my beautiful baby girl," he said. While on the other hand, his father is laughing at him. "How's work, Giovanni?" he asked his son. "Father, with all due respect, kindly remove Mr. De los Frias on the list of investors?" he said and sounded like he was stressed. His father creased his forehead and turn into serious mode. "Why? What happened?" he asked. Giovanni loosened his neck tie. "He's a pain in the ass. He keeps on asking for the whole detailed of the investments when we gave him enough," he complained. "That's what a businessman does, Giovanni. He's an investor in our company therefore, introduced me to him and I'll be the one to face him," his father said and he looks like relieved.

Just call me Thalia,” I told her and her eyes were shining. “Okay, Thalia!” she said and I nodded. She moved when I got out of the room. “Where’s Giovanna?” I asked her. I am still worried and do not trust her because I haven’t received any information from Silver. “She’s still sleeping, Thalia. I came here because Sir Giovanni asked me to ask you if you need anything," she said and I nodded. "Just be with Giovanna, that’s all I need. I can manage myself,” I firmly said. She smiled sweetly at me and bowed her head. I took a step towards Giovanna’s room. I found my daughter sleeping peacefully on the top of the bed with pillows around her.
