"Stop staring at me, woman."

"Oh, sorry. I didn't know I wasn't supposed to look at you, even though you're walking in front of me. It's not like I can look away while I'm walking! Why are you walking so far ahead anyway?" Manuela complained.

They were walking down the hallway of the large mansion at Hacienda Urquio. It had taken Uno two hours to recover from his allergic reaction. They were on their way to the part of the mansion where they would find Don Victorino and Lucas.

"Should I walk behind you?" Uno asked coldly. Manuela just scoffed.

"Of course not! You should let me lead the way; I don't know this huge mansion."

"Exactly. So just keep following me and shut your mouth," Uno said. Manuela frowned at his attitude.

"I thought he was nice earlier, but apparently not. This guy is always grumpy," Manuela whispered, glancing at Santi, who was following them from behind.

"Shouldn't you be following Mr. Urquio? Why are you behind me?" Manuela whispered. Santi smiled slig

    Manuela silently and wordlessly applied ointment to Lucas's bruised wrists. Her eyes were swollen from crying, but she suppressed her emotions in front of Lucas, knowing he would ask questions."I've put ointment on your bruises, they'll be gone in a few days," Manuela said with a slight smile."Ate, I'm okay…" Lucas replied."It's not okay for me," Manuela said, her voice choked with unshed tears. "I promised Mom and Dad I'd take care of you, but I failed. I'm sorry I wasn't there when they hurt you. I promise it won't happen again." Lucas reached up and touched her cheek."It's my fault, Ate…" he whispered."No… don't say that. You didn't do anything wrong. You're just a child, and that's not the right way to discipline a child. They won't hurt you again, Lucas, I promise," Manuela said, tears welling up in her eyes. They both turned towards the door as Uno appeared.Manuela felt a tightness in her chest seeing Uno; he was one of the reasons she was crying. She expected him to sid

  • WIFE FOR 365 DAYS (ENGLISH VERSION)   Chapter 49: WHE SHE CRIES

    Manuela’s staff meeting had just ended, and her employees returned to their respective tasks. Manuela remained silent in her seat, preoccupied with why she woke up in Uno's room when she clearly remembered falling asleep next to Lucas.Only one conclusion kept recurring in her mind."Could Uno have moved me to his room? Or did I sleepwalk?" she wondered, remembering that she hadn't seen Uno that morning before work."That man's always busy; what's new?" she muttered to herself.Manuela leaned back, slightly tilting her head up, gazing at the conference room ceiling. A knock came at the door, and Suzie peeked in."Boss, you have a visitor in your office. The CEO of Nexus Innovative Architecture," Suzie announced, causing Manuela to furrow her brow."The CEO of Nexus Innovative Architecture? Their business is so far removed from mine; why would they visit me?" Manuela questioned, surprised. Suzie shrugged."I don't know, Boss, but he's handsome. He has a vibe similar to Mr. Urquio, but

    "Lucas!"Lucas ran towards Don Victorino, who was delighted to see him again. Don Victorino had been busy with his businesses, so he hadn't visited Uno's manor much."Did you miss your Lolo Rino?" Don Victorino asked with a smile, to which Lucas nodded."Yes!""Let's sit down and eat. I ordered a lot of food for all of us," Don Victorino said happily, helping Lucas sit down while Uno pulled out a chair for Manuela.He's acting because of Don Victorino. Why do I need to find meaning in what he's doing? Manuela thought bitterly before sitting down."How are you, hija? Do you have morning sickness yet? Am I expecting a grandson?""Why are you asking my wife like that? Don't pressure her," Uno scolded his grandfather."I'm not pressuring her, but haven't you been on your honeymoon? Don't tell me it was a failure. You can always try again—""—Lucas is here, Lolo, stop talking about that. Don't give my wife a responsibility just because you want to have a grandson," Uno interrupted, causing

    "Don't sleep, wait for me."Manuela woke up grumpy; Uno's instructions to stay awake had robbed her of sleep, and he hadn't returned to the room. She was practically seeing stars.Santi brought her a change of clothes, so she went to the bathroom."Why am I in such a bad mood today? It's not like I expected him to come back to the room last night, or continue what he started. I'm annoyed because he shouldn't have told me to wait for him; it kept me up all night!" Manuela complained, looking in the bathroom mirror."I like Uno, but I shouldn't get my hopes up about him doing anything. At the end of this contract marriage, I'm the one who'll get hurt because I'm the one who's fallen. I shouldn't show Uno that I'm annoyed; I should act normal," Manuela muttered to herself before finishing getting ready.When she left the room and walked downstairs, she found Piero sitting on the sofa with a tablet."G-Good morning..." Manuela greeted, catching Piero's attention. She remembered Uno intr

    "I'm so disappointed! I'm their eldest child, but they didn't tell me about their problems! That's so unfair!"Piero watched in disbelief as Manuela, drunk and emotional, vented her frustrations. She had consumed too much beer, becoming intoxicated and rambling while crying.They were surprised when Uno brought Manuela to their manor and introduced her to Hiro. Piero and Hiro were drinking when Uno and Manuela arrived, and Uno allowed Manuela to join them. Radjeev, Santi, and Caleb later joined the drinking session, with Manuela consuming even more alcohol than the others, while Uno sat cross-legged on the sofa."Why did Dad hide Mom's illness from me?!" Manuela sobbed, hiccuping from the alcohol."Your wife seems to have had a bit too much, el señor. She's acting out," Piero commented, causing Uno to sigh.He let Manuela drink because of her emotional state, but he hadn't anticipated her inability to control her intake."Why did you bring Lady Manuela here, el señor?" Santi asked."

    Manuela sat silently, gazing out the window, gently stroking Uno's hair. Many questions filled her mind, one of them concerning her father. She thought her father's debt was only to Uno, yet she would soon learn there were others.Now Manuela understood why her father sometimes came home with bruises and wounds on his face. Because of his debt, her father must have been struggling with loan sharks.Dad, why didn't you tell us about this? Manuela thought to herself.Lost in thought, Manuela was startled when their car stopped in front of a large house guarded by two armed men."Sir, we're here," Santi announced, startling Uno awake."What about Fortnite and Sadhi?""They're providing backup silently," Santi replied, getting out of the car."Don't leave my side, Manuela, stick to me like glue," Uno instructed, and Manuela instinctively grabbed his arm."N-nothing bad will happen to us, right?" Manuela asked, anxiety rising as she saw the armed guards."Nothing will happen to us, so if
