Semua Bab My Stranger Groom Is A Billionaire: Bab 1011 - Bab 1020

“Tsk! Hindi ka pa ba nasasanay?” sabat agad ni Solvia sabay ngisi. “You always have admirers, baka isa na naman ‘yan sa mga secret admirer mo.” Natawa pa ito, sabay iling at halatang inaasar na naman ang pinsan.“Pero kasi…” bumuntong-hininga si Dia, bahagyang nagbago ang tono ng boses niya. “Kayo lang naman ang may alam ng number ko na ‘to.”Napatingin si Solvia sa kanya, bahagyang kumunot ang noo, hindi agad nakapagsalita at napaisip na rin. Dalawa kasi ang phone ni Dia, isang personal at isang ginagamit lang kapag may school activities.Umiling lang si Dia at marahang pinindot ang screen, binubuksan ang message na nagmula sa unknown number. Bahagyang bumilis ang tibok ng puso niya. Hindi niya alam kung bakit parang kinakabahan siya sa simpleng text lang. Ang mga daliri niya ay medyo nanginginig pa habang dahan-dahang tina-type ang passcode ng phone.“Feel ko mga admirers mo talaga ‘yan,” sambit pa ni Solvia habang nakangiti, halatang nang-aasar. “Baka naman ‘yung lalaki sa canteen n

Si Paul naman ay nanatiling nakatayo, nanginginig, at parang hindi alam kung saan siya lulugar. He looked utterly miserable, his eyes wide with regret as he stared at Dia, the woman he promised never to hurt. But now, that promise was nothing more than a lie shattered in front of them.“Baby, I don’t know what happened—” nauutal niyang sabi, nag-aabot ng kamay, desperado na maabot si Dia, na maramdaman muli ang init ng palad nito.Pero bago pa siya makalapit, umatras si Dia, mabilis, parang kinilabutan sa mismong presensya niya.Napatingin pa si Paul sa pag-atras nito at sandaling natigilan din, knowing that he felt so much change starting now about them.“Huwag mo akong hahawakan!” mariing sigaw ni Dia, halos hindi na makapagsalita sa sobrang panginginig ng boses.Ang bawat salita niya ay may halong poot at pagkawasak. “Don’t you dare touch me with those hands! You disgust me, Paul! I never thought you could do something like this to me!”Kitang-kita ni Solvia ang pagkahulog ng balik

“K-Kuya River, can you just talk and ask her tomorrow? Pagod na kasi siya,” sabat ni Solvia, halos pabulong ngunit puno ng pakiusap. Her voice trembled, and her eyes were already glistening with tears, afraid that one wrong word might make Dia crumble completely into pieces she couldn’t gather again.Kumunot ang noo ni River, still mad and confused. Hindi niya maintindihan kung bakit biglang umuwi ang kapatid niya mula sa ibang bansa, umiiyak, wasak, at tila wala nang direksyon.Ang makita ni River na umiiyak nang ganoon si Dia ay tila isang panaginip na hindi niya kayang intindihin. Sanay siya sa kapatid niyang palaban, matapang, at hindi nagpapatalo kahit kanino, kahit pa minsan ay may pagka-suplada o spoiled brat. But now, she looked like a broken mirror, reflecting nothing but pain and the fragments of what she used to be.Even though River wanted to ask more, he forced himself to stop. He clenched his jaw and sighed heavily, ang mga kamay niya ay mahigpit na nakasara sa gilid na p

The silence that followed her voice was suffocating, a tension that made even the air feel heavier. Everyone’s eyes followed her, and even Solvia, who was seething just moments ago, clenched her jaw tighter in silent anger and pity.“No, baby," napasinghab na sila Thali nang marinig iyon kay Paul, they suddenly dont know what to think."I’m not going to leave, unless we talk,” mabilis din dugtong na sambit ni Paul, halos pakiusap na rin ang tono, pero halatang desperado.His eyes were glassy, his chest rising and falling too quickly, as if fear itself was choking him. His hands were shaking, and he looked like a man ready to crumble if rejected one more time.That only made Solvia’s temper flare even more.“Wala ka man lang bang hiya?” Iritang sambit ni Solvia, halos sumabog sa galit. Pero hindi na iyon pinansin ni Paul, tuloy-tuloy pa rin siya sa paglapit kay Dia.“Dia…” mabilis na nilapitan siya ni Paul, pero bago pa siya makalapit, agad na humarang si Lorenzo.Mariin ang titig nito,

Chapter 180 “Gamutin mo sugat mo,” mariing sambit ni Lorenzo sa pinsan niya at saka nilagay ng padarag ang first aid kit sa tabi nito. May diin sa bawat salita niya, para bang gusto na rin niyang ipamukha rito ang bigat ng kasalanan nito. Halata sa mga mata ni Lorenzo ang inis at pagkadismaya. Paul just looked at it, his expression empty, bago niya tiningnan si Lorenzo. There was a silent plea in his eyes, like he wanted to beg for help but couldn’t find the courage to do it properly. “You should let me talk to her,” he said seriously to his cousin, his voice almost trembling from exhaustion and regret. “Hindi pa ba sapat iyang suntok ni River at gusto mo pang dagdagan ko?” seryosong sambit ni Lorenzo, halatang galit pa rin siya rito. “You’re lucky at si River lang ang sumuntok sayo, dahil kung pati ang iba sinuntok ka, hindi lang yan ang aabutin mo, you might already in the hospital now." Paul sighed deeply and irritably pulled his hair in frustration, halos mapamura habang nakay
