"Nevermind…. Just forget I said that." I took a deep breath. Setting his warehouse ablaze might ruin his entire company. That's not what I want."Ma'am? You mean I shouldn't push through with it?" He asked, waiting for a response."Yes… yes, I don't wanna get myself involved in such things. Forget I ever said that. You may leave." I waved my hand and walked into the restroom.I got back home as late as 8 pm only to see some police officers in my living room.Christa gave me a warm hug the moment I walked in, but I was more concerned with the cops in my house. I told Korozon to take her upstairs as I turned to the cops.Just as we exchanged greetings, my aunt walked in with concern written all over her face."Good evening, Miss Aldama." Three of them greeted me and I gestured for them to have their seats. My Aunt sat close to me as we heard what the cops had to say."Do you know this man? His name is Raymond Ibarra." The chief of police asked, showing me a familiar picture. I took and g

Angelica stood to welcome him. They shook hands and took their seats. Money was indeed very good! Anyone can be bought, as far as you're willing to triple the initial amount one is used to. Then, you're good to go."So, you were with Bella the whole day. Has she been arrested? Jailed? - sentenced to life imprisonment?" Angelica asked. That was her only aim for eliminating Raymond the night she did. There was no other place except the Aldama estate. "Calm down, Angelica. Don't be too hasty…. You would have to kill Brown first before you can think of doing that." Monica scolded. Angelica and Brown may be partners in separating Bella and Reggie from each other, but she has her way of going behind Brown to make Bella suffer.Angelica ignored Monica and turned to Bruno. "She wasn't even allowed to step her foot in prison. Her uncle, Don Maximo, didn't even allow that. The moment she was arrested for interrogations, he went to the station to clear her name and all. Don Maximo isn't an ordin

Aunt Esperanza walked in and was wowed when she saw my dress on me."My goodness, Bella, this is beyond gorgeous. You're an angel from the sky. You look so beautiful!" My Aunt was smiling like never before.I stood to hug her as I wiped the tears that welled up in my eyes. Don Maximo had asked the ladies to give us a minute and when they left, the conversation we had almost felt like a threat. It seems if I don't get married to Brown, he would take Christa away. While we were having the conversation, the only thing I could do was to nod and say, 'Yes sir.' "You don't look bad either." I forced a smile as I saw the look on my uncle's face. There are two things here; it's either Brown had bribed him, but it doesn't seem right. We were more wealthy than the Smiths. it's impossible for him to get money from Brown. Or they had an agreement or something, but I'm sure they are in this together. Don Maximo had six different cars behind my car and another six cars at the front of my car. Wa

How dare he? I frowned slightly and pushed his body from mine."Belong to you?" I asked with plain irritation plastered on my face. Then I walked away from where he stood. "What am I… A drink?" His face was motionless as he stared intensely at me. Wondering how it took him this long to figure everything out."Have been trying to hold myself back but I'm sorry I just can't…" Reggie pulled my hand and planted a kiss on my lips.I opened my eyes while he kissed my lips, but then I pushed and gave him a slap."Are you drunk?" My brows furrowed as I wiped my lips and tried to leave, but someone shut the door. He still had that look on his face. He looked as if he didn't just receive a slap, as if he felt nothing. I was getting impatient and I couldn't stand to be in the same room with him. I tried leaving, but the door wasn't opening. "Get me out of here… I am your brother's fiancee." "The last time I remembered… we were never divorced.”Wait, what? Divorced? Did he… I shook the thoug

AlexiaI got into the warehouse with a big bag of money.Angelica was sitting and smoking as usual, while Marcus was next to her. He and four other men were busy counting different cash.I dropped the bag on the table in front of them as Angelica spoke to me. She just got off a call that annoyed her. "You would be collecting money from this guy." She gave me her phone to get the person's picture and details. "I have been asking Monica to do it, but she just can't." I copied his details to my phone and sat down quietly."I heard Reggie won the case." Angelica broke the silence. That wasn't true. Bella only agreed for him to visit and take Christa out. It doesn't mean he won any case. Bella was willing to fight with all she got, but Reggie was way stronger."I'm not sure…But he visits Christa, or isn't that his right?" I said.However, I didn't like the way things turned out. I still had to trigger Angelica to keep them apart. Though Bella is still threatened by her uncle, she's stil
