Sino ba talaga ang tatay ko? Bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi sa akin?"Umupo si Teresa sa sofa."Your father was Gabriel Valdez. He was a businessman.

    THE UNWANTED WIFE 2: THE LOVE WE BUILTCHAPTER 8 – The following morning, Alexander stood inside his private office, staring at the documents spread across his desk.He had barely finished his coffee when Althea entered.She was carrying two cups."I thought you might need this."Alexander looked up and offered her a faint smile."Thank you."She placed one cup beside him before taking the chair across his desk."You promised me that we would go through everything together.""I remember.""Then let's start."Alexander nodded.He opened the oldest folder and removed a document dated more than twenty years ago."This was the original agreement."Althea leaned forward.The document contained several signatures, including Alexander's, Marcus's, and those of two other businessmen she didn't recognize."What was this agreement about?""An investment partnership.

  • The Unwanted Wife    THE FACE IN THE PHOTOGRAPH

    THE UNWANTED WIFE 2: THE LOVE WE BUILTCHAPTER 7 – Alexander barely slept that night.The photograph Adrian had found was now inside a clear evidence envelope on his office desk. Beside it was an old document containing the same symbol printed in its corner.He stared at both pieces of evidence.The symbol belonged to a private investment group that had once partnered with the Villareal Group. Years ago, Marcus had used several companies under that network to move money without attracting attention.Alexander had assumed the entire operation had been dismantled after Marcus's arrest.Apparently, he had been wrong.A knock interrupted his thoughts."Come in."His head of security entered carrying a folder."Sir, we found something."Alexander immediately looked up."What is it?""We traced the symbol to a company called Northbridge Holdings. It was registered several years ago, but its ownership records have changed multiple times.""Who owns it now?""On paper, a man named Daniel Cor

But after everything that had happened to Nathaniel, he knew this was not something he could simply dismiss."Good morning."He looked up.Althea was approaching the table, dressed in a cream blouse and black trousers. She smiled at him before taking the seat across from him."Good morning, Mom.""You're awake early.""I have something to do.""At the university?"Adrian hesitated."Something like that."Althea noticed th

No one dared to interrupt the conversation happening inside Alexander's private office.Nathaniel sat on the sofa with his arms crossed. Adrian stood near the window, while Althea remained beside her husband.On the desk lay Nathaniel's phone, displaying the threatening messages he had received the previous night.Alexander stared at the screen for the third time."Are you sure you don't recognize this number?" he asked.Nathaniel shook his head."No, Dad.""Have you met the person who sent these messages?"Nathaniel hesitated.Alexander immediately noticed."Answer me honestly."Nathaniel looked at his mother."Someone approached me last night."Althea moved closer."Who?""I don't know.
