Lahat ng Kabanata ng Husband For Hire : Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

Jesse walked into the hospital after wasting five minutes talking himself out of going in to see Bella but the other part of him that really wanted to see her won and he found himself going inside the building. He took the stairs to the second floor and stopped short when he saw Bella's parents, Paul and Gwen sitting on recliners probably waiting for news about her. Gwen turned her head and her eyes widened when she saw her father standing in the corner looking uncertain and she stood up. "Daddy!". She called out but didn't run to meet him like she wanted to. She'd missed him so much these past weeks and wondered when he'd finally come home. Aviva, Vincenzo and Paul turned their heads to look at Jesse as well but Paul turned away immediately and stood up. "Um... I'll go across the road to that restaurant and get something for Gwen to eat. Are you hungry Gwen?". He asked her. "Yes." "Let's go together then." Paul held out his hand. Gwen placed her hand in his and followed Paul w

Jesse walked into his office and shut the door then leaned against it tiredly. He was physically and emotionally exhausted and he just wanted to end everything.He pushed away from the door and walked over to take a seat behind his desk, hitting his head against the head rest repeatedly as Bella's words ran rampant in his mind."You're so very unfortunate, aren't you Jesse Billion." He thought. "The first one played you like a violin and now this one... like a piano. You're the most pathetic man in the whole world."He shook his head and rubbed his hands over his face. He had work to do so he was going to focus on that instead and took out his laptop from the bag, opened it and turned it on.Halfway through the second document he was going through, he remembered the package and opened the drawer, took it out and closed the drawer."What are you hiding package?". He muttered. "More suffering. That's what Uncle Vince said right?". He tore the seal of the envelope and poured out the cont

Alexa was hastily packing her clothes into her bags when the door to her bedroom opened and Regina walked in startling her. "Going somewhere?". Regina asked. "Um... I just got a call from my sister now." Her voice shook. "She's not well and I'm going to see her." "Without letting anyone know?". Regina arched a brow. "I was coming to inform you. Is there a problem?". She asked. "Yes. Mr Arroyo wants you in the living room." Regina replied. "Okay, I'll come..." "Now." Regina ordered. Alexa inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly. "Why... Why does he want to see me?". She questioned anxiously. "I don't know. Let's go." Regina answered snippily. Alexa walked out of her room and Regina followed behind her. She hoped that what she did had not come back to bite her in the ass. Nobody saw her right? She hoped nobody saw her or she was toast. "Here she is Mr Arroyo." Regina told Vincenzo as she ushered Alexa into the room. "Thank you Regina." Vincenzo said. "Please leave us." Regina cur

Three days laterAviva walked out on to the balcony and found Vincenzo seated on a lounge chair staring at nothing in particular. "You okay Vince?". She asked.Vincenzo looked up at her with a faint smile on his face. "I'm fine." He sighed. "Just missing home that's all."Aviva sat on the lounge chair beside him. "You can go, you know?". She asked him. "You've done enough for us and Jesse as well. Estrella must be missing you.""He's family." He shrugged. "Besides, Bella is really devastated. The doctors said it's possible he might not wake up.""If the swelling of his brain doesn't go down but I'm sure it will and he'll wake up." She said. "He can't afford not to." She sighed. "A lot of people are waiting for him on this side.""Helena really did a number on him, didn't she?"."I hope she rots in hell." Aviva spat. "Devil's spawn, that one was.""How's Bella?"."Sad. Very sad and angry with herself for pushing him away." Aviva replied. "She said she won't forgive herself if he never

"What's wrong daddy? Is everything okay?". Bella inquired as they took their seats in the waiting room."What I have to tell both of you is something I wish someone else would do but alas, your mother picked me for the job." He rolled his eyes."Is it bad?". Bella asked."Out of ten? I'd say 9.""Okay. You're beginning to scare us daddy. What is it?". She demanded. "Come right out and tell us."Vincenzo covered his face with his hands and blew out his breath. "Okay. Here goes." He dropped his hands and looked at the two of them. "Jesse found out some things the night he left the hospital after seeing you and let's just say... it hurt him a lot after he confirmed it from his father." He told them."What things?"."Gwen is not... Jesse's biological daughter." He said."What? Are you sure Grandpa? That can't be true." Gwen shook her head. "Mommy, what is grandpa saying?"."Wait... I don't understand dad. Was Helena having an affair with another man while being married to Jesse?". Bella q
