บททั้งหมดของ THE UNWILLING BRIDE (ENGLISH): บทที่ 61 - บทที่ 70

When she reached the waiting shed, a taxi arrived just in time. She hailed it, and it stopped in front of her. She first peeked inside the taxi to see if she recognized the driver—what if it was Fernando again? It seemed like her phobia was getting worse... she was starting to doubt everyone."Miss! Are you going to get in or just stand there staring?" the irritated driver called out to her.After making sure it wasn’t Fernando, she got into the passenger seat."Where to, miss?""To the Villaruel mansion, please..."The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror... it seemed like he was trying to recognize her when she mentioned she was heading to the mansion.She already knew what was going through his mind. He had probably seen the video too... She could only sigh in frustration."Sir, are we leaving or are you just going to sit there staring?" she asked coldly."Ah, sorry miss... It's just that you look like the woman from that video I saw. I just can’t believe it’s really y

"Why did you come back, Diana?" Reed asked angrily. Only the two of them were left. Clarisa was gone."I saw the video of Clarisa, and I wanted to comfort you. I hadn’t shown up for a long time because I was planning to step aside for you two... I had decided to raise our child alone and not disturb you, but what did Clarisa do to you? She just deceived you... she messed with your head!"His jaw tightened at her words."Tomorrow, I’ll bring our child here... we’ll live here so you won’t be alone, and someone can take care of Blue. Poor Blue, without a mother... Don’t worry, Reed, I’ll take care of Blue as if he were my own."She grabbed his shoulder, but he shrugged her off. "You can’t live here..." he replied simply."But why? Your child has rights here... he’s your flesh and blood!... He’s also a Villaruel!" Diana insisted."Give me a DNA result for him... Prove that he’s really my son.""Of course he’s yours! What do you think, that I’m like Clarisa?"It wasn’t that he was a bad fa

CLARISA:When they arrived home, she first invited Anton inside. She saw their gossiping neighbors whispering again, probably because she was with another man, but she didn’t care about that anymore. Anton was her friend. He had helped her a lot, and that was something their nosy neighbors didn’t know. She didn’t feel the need to explain anything to them.“Who is he, my child?” her mother asked when they entered their house. Her mom and dad were waiting for her return.“This is Anton, Mom... He helped me escape from that rapist’s place before. He knows that the video that rapist is spreading is not true.”“Good morning, Auntie...” Anton greeted her mother.“Good morning to you too, Anton... Thank you for helping our child,” her mother said.“So, what happened in your conversation with Sir Reed, Clarisa?” her father asked.“He still doesn’t believe me, Dad... And Diana is already at their house... his ex-girlfriend who is also pregnant... I saw them doing something inside our own room.

She shifted her attention back to the view outside the window.She remembered her friends Loren, Patrick, and Cyena... They hadn’t spoken since everything happened. The events unfolded so quickly. She had no way to contact her friends; Fernando had her phone. She hadn’t made a social media account yet... Did she really want to prioritize that over her problems? Her friends probably saw the video that Fernando spread, and they were likely worried about her... She felt sad for her friends. As much as she wanted to inform them about her situation, she had no way to do so... She didn’t want to go to the hospital where her friends worked... She didn’t want to be seen wandering around; the video was still too fresh in the public eye.Surely her friends would understand if she didn’t reach out to them... For now, she needed to focus on herself.Suddenly, tears started to flow again... She thought of her child, Blue... She hadn’t even been able to see or hold her baby in the last moments befo

He had been waiting outside the emergency room for almost two hours when the doctor finally emerged. He quickly stood up to meet the doctor. "Doc, how is my grandfather?" "He's doing well, Mr. Villaruel. He just needs some rest. If possible, he should avoid stress..." "Okay, doc..." "In a little while, he can be moved to a private room to rest more comfortably," the doctor added. After the doctor left, he sat back down in the waiting area, feeling a weight lift from his chest. Thank goodness his grandfather was okay. He could finally relax. Moments later, his phone buzzed. It was Jon calling. "Hello, bro?" he said as he answered. "Pre, just to confirm... the guy we had locked up is out. His name is Fernando, and he lives in Laguna. I went to his house, but he wasn't there. There were broken bottles and blood all around. That's where they took Clarisa... that's the place from the video." His jaw clenched at what he heard. He wanted to kill that Fernando. "Whose blood is it? C
