Chapter 11-Company

“Have you already chosen what to wear?” Fausto asked his granddaughter. “Yes, grandpa. How are you feeling?” She stroked her grandfather’s forehead. She knows his blood pressure rate has increased because of her cousins. She is really just waiting for her grandfather to introduce her to the public before she confronts those they suspect of being involved in her father’s death.“I’m fine, and don’t worry about me. You need to focus now on how to face them all and show you’re not weak!” She smiled sparingly at her grandfather. “I promised that I would not oppose your decisions in my life.”Fausto smiled again. It seemed that his granddaughter had learned to fight alone because of her experience in life. He should be thanking whoever impregnated her granddaughter.“Grandpa, as much as possible, I don’t want anyone else to know about my son.” Fausto nodded, he didn’t want others to meet his great-grandchild so far, especially since he was a boy. The child is now in the place where Stel

Chapter 12-Hatred

Diana looked at the woman staring at them. When their eyes met, surprise appeared on her face. “Stella?”Stella didn’t wonder if the woman was surprised to see her. Well, she didn’t know her true personality, so she would definitely wonder why she was there and on that floor. She was about to step closer to the woman when the man she was talking to suddenly turned towards her. Earlier, Diana was the only one who was surprised to see her. Now, she was the one who was shocked when she saw the man. Charles frowned when he recognized the woman he was looking at. What he thought earlier was just a mishearing of the name Diana mentioned. He didn’t think that he would find his ex-wife, whom he had been looking for a long time, in that company alone.“Gosh, it’s you, Stella!” Diana exclaimed exasperatedly and quickly approached the woman. “What are you doing here? I mean, since when have you been an employee here at our company?” Stella wanted to roll her eyes, but she stopped herself. She

Chapter 13-Challenge

“Sir, the meeting is about to start.” Charles turned to his secretary, who unknowingly followed him. He sighed before walking back to the conference room. Stella lost the will to go to the conference room. She also had a sudden headache, so she decided to leave. Alex quickly approached the girl and helped her get to the elevator. Charles clenched his fist when he saw the man with Stella. In that case, the same man was accompanied by his ex-wife. The man seems to have a connection to this company, so they are there. After getting off the elevator, the two faced him. Both of them gave each other a cold look before the elevator closed.“Are you all right, ma’am?” Alex asked the girl. “Let’s go straight to my son,” she whispered to Alex. The man did not ask any more questions and followed what the girl ordered. In the mansion, Fausto is restless while waiting for his assistant to call. He waited another twenty minutes until the phone rang. “Sir, I’m sorry if I called you just now.

Chapter 14-Guest

“Is he the one you said was your friend, Diana?” Vanz asked his sister. “Brother!” She smiled and held on to her brother’s arm. “That’s him, brother, and please don’t torture him here.”Mauro scratched the back of his neck and could no longer refuse the girl’s invitation. He knows Vanz. He knows that he is one of the nominees for CEO of that company today. Vanz faced the man with a smile. “It’s nice to meet you again. I apologize for being in the conference room earlier if I have a lot of questions.” Diana pursed her lips and gently pulled her brother’s arm. It means that she didn’t like what he did earlier.“I understand that business is business. Even if I were in your position, I would do the same. Thank you for being professional, and please don’t give me special treatment because your sister became my friend.”“Mauro, don’t worry because you are no longer at work, so my brother will talk to you like this. Get used to him because he treats everyone close to me like this.” Her

Chapter 15-Sorrow

“Ma’am, let me prepare you your favorite breakfast.” Marimar quickly moved away from the boss’s ex-wife. Stella tried to stop the maid, but she had already moved away. She looked back at Charles, as if she were hallucinating, when the strange emotion was reflected in his eyes. It was as if her sight was deceiving her, and she could read in Charles’ eyes that he longs for her. Charles blinks in realization. It was as if he hadn’t recognized his own feelings earlier and had briefly lost himself. “It’s good that there is still some consent left in your heart and you thought of visiting Grandpa.” The anger returned to her heart because of what the young man said. It seems that she was just deceived by her own eyes earlier. The man is still arrogant and has no love for her. He still thinks of her as a gold digger and a hypocrite.“I don’t want trouble. I didn’t come here to talk to you.” Charles was momentarily stunned by Stella’s cold conversation with him. He stared into her eyes, bu

Chapter 16

“Hija, be patient with my grandson. Don’t worry about me because there is a nurse who is already taking care of me. I am happy to see you today, and I am relieved because you seem to be happy with your life now.”Stella smiled and nodded to the old man before turning to Charles. “My husband is rich, so I don’t have to work hard to earn money.”Charles’s jaw tightened and moved. He couldn’t accept that his ex-wife no longer needed him because it looked like he had been replaced with a man with more money. “But don’t worry, I’ll still visit Grandpa Ramon and take care of him when I have time. I guess I am still welcome here anytime I want to come since this is my house, ain’t I?” “Of course, but let Grandpa stay here because he prefers to live here.”The young man’s face was formal when talking to her. She shook herself when she looked at his face again. The man seemed to be doing it with purpose, and he even grew his hair longer. “Don’t assume. You’re not the reason why he grew his

Chapter 17-Conscience

“The million pesos you are talking about; are you sure she took them in exchange for her freedom?” Charles was even more confused by the question from his grandfather. All he knows is that Stella accepted the money and left. “And you believe she has another man?” Ramon asked his grandson again. “Grandpa, you heard her saying earlier that she is married to a rich man.” He seems to be forced to answer his grandpa. Ramon shook his head. “Your sister, I hope he wouldn’t be stupid in choosing a marriage partner. And doesn’t become blind to the truth like you.”Charles sighed softly and didn’t argue with what his grandfather said. If he is the one that follows, he wants to expel his stepmother from their siblings’s lives when their father is gone. But Sophie loves Magda because she is her mother, who has come to her senses. His grandpa didn’t speak again, so he distracted himself with work again. “The food is ready, grandpa. Come on, I know you miss my cooking.” Stella energetically ap

Chapter 18-Envy

“What are you doing here in my grandfather’s room? What do you need, and why did you come back?” Sophie asked Stella one question after another and immediately approached her grandfather. Stella thought about it. If Sophie acted, it would be like she was doing a disservice to her grandfather. “Sophie, what kind of question is that? It’s Stella’s house, so you shouldn’t be asking her that kind of thing.”Sophie was annoyed with Stella because she’s still the one that her grandfather is siding with. “She didn’t sign the deed, so she has no right to the house from my brother,” replied Sophie. Magda jumped from her stance when she heard what Sophie said. She suddenly got nervous, and the information might reach Charles’ knowledge.“What did you say?” Ramon’s eyes narrowed. “What that means is that you know she didn’t take what your brother gave her, but you didn’t tell Charles?” Sophie suddenly turned pale, and her chest puffed out. It’s too late to take back what she said out of jeal

Chapter 19-Threats

The old man was already asleep when the doctor arrived. Stella just stayed on one side and had no intention of leaving, even though Sophie looked at her badly. “It’s a good thing that his blood is further prevented from increasing. Avoid getting him too angry.” The doctor’s advice to the patient’s family. “Let her go, brother, before Grandpa wakes up so that Grandpa doesn’t feel bad again.” Sophie pointed at Stella. “If you don’t have anything sensible to say, shut up, Sophie!” he said in a stern voice. Sophie’s lips were tightly pressed together, and her heart was filled with anger. She was the only one who heard what her brother said, but she was very embarrassed because it seemed like Stella was still taking sides.“You need to take him to the hospital tomorrow morning, and he needs to be tested,” the doctor reminded them while arranging the contents of his bag and preparing to leave. “Thank you very much, doc.” Charles shook hands with the doctor before leading him outside th

Chapter 20-Disappointes

“You should thank me and be kind. Maybe you forgot you had a choice before you left?” Elizabeth quickly looked around, and maybe someone else heard what Stella was saying. “You, shut up! No one will believe you, even if you talk to them!” She gave Elizabeth a scornful look. She is good at pretending, just like Magda. She also uses Sophie, and she is infected by the plasticity of their behavior. “Don’t worry, I have no intention of returning to this family, so your secret will remain a secret.”Elizabeth’s gaze followed Stella’s, full of anger. After she spoke, she turned her back as if she were talking to trash.Inside the library, Sophie quietly approached her brother. When she looked at her stepmother, she was also silent. The aura on her brother’s face was intimidating, and she was even afraid to ask why they were called there. “Tell me everything now, you two.”Sophie and Magda looked at each other, both clueless as to what Charles was talking about. “Why did you tell me befor
