The next day…The sun was shining brightly in the outside ngunit sa kwarto ng dalaga ay nanatiling madilim. Ang mga makapal na kurtina na nakaharang sa mga bintana ay animo'y sadyang pinigilan ang sinag ng araw upang hindi maalintana ang pahinga ng natutulog na dalaga ngunit sa kasamaang palad ito ay napabalikwas mula sa pagkakahimbing.Nagising and dalaga na luhaan at pawisan. She was choking and sobbing as she dreamed of the day of her accident. The memories of that day remain fresh and vivid in her mind and she couldn't help feeling extremely sullen. Her innocent daughter who was killed by her father's vicious fiance without showing any ounce of remorse seemed to haunt her endlessly until now. Ang matinding lungkot na kanyang nararamdaman ay nagbalik ganun din and galit sa kanyang puso, it intensifies, burning the last strand of being a sympathetic person she was within her.After what happened last night, she swore to herself that she won't show any mercy to those people who were

Half an hour later of racing through the wide streets, Ruella and Oliver finally entered the huge iron gate of Ventura's Residence. She sped up and halted in the foyer leaving the CEO clenching his ticking jaws. His hold on his seatbelt was so tight as well as his lips, pursed in a thin line due to extreme irritation. Nakahinga lamang siya ng maluwag ng sila ay nakarating na sa entryway ng mansion. He never expected her to drive like a furious racer and he felt like he never knew the real woman who captured his heart. He was surprised to discover the fearless side of her.Ruella jumped out from her seat, slamming her door shut. Though she felt like running in the mansion's underground chambers to check on Tommy's task, she still managed to open Oliver's door and helped him out of the car."Let's go inside. My father must be waiting for you." She suggested impatiently.Oliver couldn't help staring at her. His eyes displayed emotions that he failed to hide. "Do you still have another si

"Miss Rue, Mr. Mitchell, handa na po ang hapunan." Magalang na saad ng isa sa mga housemaids habang nakayuko ang ulo nito. "We'll be right there." Ruella responded promptly and stood up. She went over to help Oliver as part of her duty as the hostess of the house though she felt terrible about him. "Come on. Let's go to the dining room." She urged flatly. She was about to stretch her arm and wrap it around Oliver's waist when Tommy came to her rescue."Ako ng bahala kay Mr. Mitchell, Rue. You may go on ahead." Tommy chimes in.Oliver went speechless and annoyed at the man's sudden interruption but what else could he do rather than to accept Tommy's help? He was left with no choice but obliged even if he had killed him multiple times in his mind. "Alright." She smiled. "Thanks." Tumalikod na siya at naunang pumanhik sa silid kainan.Naiwan si Oliver at Tommy sa living room habang nakatingin sa papalayong dalaga."Mr. Mitchell, let's go." Tommy urged coldly. Though he was feeling jeal

"Okay lang ako. Don't worry." He assured her but his face remained distorted."Patingin ako." She holds his face with her both hands, checking him on the head then to his face. "Hindi ko talaga sinasadya. I'm really sorry." She continued to babble, fanning her breath to his face.She was totally oblivious to the fact that their faces were about to collide again but Oliver decided to close his eyes. He wouldn't dare kiss her again as he had enough of her anger. Isa pa, mahaba pa ang gabi para sa kanila. Ayaw niya itong masira sapagkat marami pa siyang nais itanong dito kapag humupa na ang galit nito sa kanya.Natahimik ang dalaga at dahan dahang binitiwan ang kanyang mukha. "Ahem! Tumila na ang ulan. Sa tingin ko pwede na tayong lumabas ng sasakyan." She announced.He opened his eyes and sighed deeply. "Oo nga. Tara na." He agreed.Ten minutes later…"Kunti nalang, malapit na tayo sa pinto mo." Ruella comforted him as he noticed that he was grimacing in pain. His foot must have been af

Pagkatapos makausap si Tommy, nagsimula ng magbihis ang dalaga at maghanda para pumasok sa opisina ngunit bago iyon ay binuksan niya muna ang tv upang subaybayan ang balita. Saktong sakto lang ng makita niya ang balitang inaabangan niya.Nakatitig siya ng mariin sa tv screen habang pinapakita ang mga bangkay na ipinasok sa mga bodybag. Hindi ito makilala at tanging ang mga damit lamang nila ang nagsisilbing alaala niya upang maidentify ang mga ito. Mukhang seryoso talaga ng mga tauhan niya sa pagsunod ng kanyang mga inutos na sagasaan hanggang hindi na makilala. Ngunit kahit gaano niya titigan ang mga ito ay hindi man lamang siya nakakaramdam ng kaunting awa o pagsisi sa kanyang nagawa. Nangingibabaw pa rin ang awa sa inosenteng anak na hindi man lamang nagkaroon ng pagkakataong makita ang kagandahan ng mundo.Habang nakikita niya ang mga taong nag-iiyakan para doon sa namatay, hindi niya mapigilan ang sariling mapaismid. She thought that those bitches didn't deserve their tears becau
