That evening, she cooked something special for dinner. She planned to have a romantic dinner in the garden with Alec. She'll brighten up his mood and be extra sweet with him. She'll open up the topic about what Don Alonzo told her and will try to convince him to approve the said project. Truth is she was nervous about this. She don't know about real estate and construction business, she never had an interest and have no knowledge on that filed at all. She was scared that her plan might not work and worst, this might start and argument between them. But she gotta try though. She promised herself this will be the last time she will bring this conversation to Alec and if he never agreed, she guess she will stop trying. The cook and two servants kindly help her on the fantastic meal. She decided to make Spanish chicken and potatoes, Creme de calabizines, tortilla espanola and broiled spanish mackerel for dinner. She made sure everything will

After being drastic and cruel. After the anger and cloudiness of jealousy, seeing his wife lying naked beside him in the bed covered herself in blanket while silently crying as her back was turned on him, it was like a hammer that slowly crushing down his heart. Guilt and regrets enveloped him and that's awakened something inside him. How could he did that drastic thing to his wife? He hurt her and treated her like a wanton woman and he did it again for the second time now. Jealousy blinded him and now he knew he did something he will regret in the end. It might be too late but he was really sorry for what he did. Damn, he couldn't stand seeing her crying this way. He couldn't even touch and console her afraid to meet  her eyes full of hatred and hurt knowing he was the reason beyond those tears. He left the room, came outside the house and break anything be could grab in the garden. Feeling guilty and devastated, he didn't even noticed he was silent

"Oh thank goodness, you're here!" Patty stated in a worried tone as soon as she saw them. She immediately hugged Patty and then Alec did the same too afterwards. Patty looked tired with eyes sullen as if lacking of sleep. She might rushed immediately all the way from Russia when she found the news about Don Alonzo as well. Her husband Jon Carlo was standing beside her silently watching them. "How's he?" Alec asked in a worried tone. From the look of his face he seemed anxious and scared, the first time she saw him react that way towards his father. From hacienda, they rushed back to the Capital after hearing the news about Don Alonzo. Alec settled everything in the De Hizon Empire and chosen people who will administer the business while they were away. They flew to Zurich, Switzerland immediately after a day and booked the earliest flight they can have after Alec cleared his schedule. All the way to the plane until they reached the hospi

She was never been happy this way for the first time. To know she was carrying a little life inside her tummy was something wonderful and grateful. She was having a baby and heaven knows how she felt so blessed and amazingly happy at the moment. She may never knew who her real mother is but Nana Marcela showed her what its like to be a good and caring mother. She will love and take good care her child the best way she can and that's a promise. No words can express how she feels right now. Realizing now that there's a new life stirring inside  her will remind her that she will never be alone no more. Something that she can finally call her own. One thing for sure, she will give her everything for this child. She will never let her baby feel unloved and be manipulated like the way she was when she was young. She will never interfere in his life and will support him whatever will makes him happy as long it was the right thing. She won't let him beg for attention like

She woke up with heavy eyes in unfamiliar room. A searing pain on the lower part of her abdomen is what she felt when she tried to move. White ceilings, white walls and curtains and the scent of ethanol filled her nostrils. She was in the hospital, she realized. Her body ache so much mostly her left leg. It felt like she broke all her bones in the body and she couldn't move without even wincing. "How are you feeling?" Her eyes flew to the familiar man sitting next to her bed. Alec's worried face greeted her. She tried to move a bit only to wince in pain when she felt that searing pain again down her abdomen. "Do not move too much. You've broke some bones on your leg and your stitches are still fresh it might open." His face is dull and worried and his eyes seemed they were lacking from hours of sleep. Seeing Alec and realizing her condition, memories of what happened suddenly flashed back to her mind. How she find the whole truth abo
