Semua Bab The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known: Bab 81 - Bab 90

Natalia's POVI do not understand Marcus. Why does he want us to stay at his house? I could have just visited our child instead. He was the one who wanted me to stay away from their lives. Still, I am happy that I will finally be with my daughter. He is not that bad since I am still known as Belle’s mother. I will make it up to my daughter. She is such a sweet and beautiful girl. Good thing she did not inherit her father’s attitude.I sat on the sofa, lost in thought. I was trying to figure out what I would say to Kelvin. He does not know Marcus is his real father. He does not even have any idea what his father looks like. He never asked, but I know deep down he wants to meet his real dad. I am really thankful to Leonardo for always being there whenever Toper needed him.“Oh sister, why do you look like that? Is something bothering you? You were just happy earlier after seeing Belle. Is there a problem?” Cassandra asked.“Sir Marcus suggested we move into his house. Belle wants that t

Marcus' PovI almost fell face-first while walking, even though Aaron was still holding me up.“Damn it, Marcus! You acted so brave getting drunk, but now you cannot even walk properly,” he complained as he struggled to support me toward my house.“So what? Did I ask you to bring me home, idiot?” I snapped at him.When I looked up, I saw Natalia walking toward us. I smiled at her. My eyes were already starting to water from how drunk I was.“What happened to him?” she asked Aaron.“He has been drinking since this morning. One of my employees called me and said he was completely wasted, so I went to get him,” Aaron replied. My head was hanging low, and my arms were limp.“She is my wife… my Natalia,” I muttered.“Where is this guy’s room?” Aaron asked in an annoyed tone.“Come on, just follow me,” Natalia said, clearly fed up.Next thing I knew, I felt the softness of the bed under me. I closed my eyes as the room spun around me. But I smiled, imagining Natalia lying beside me, holding

Marcus’ povI looked up when someone entered my office.“Hi Marcus!” said Ava, my god-sister.I smiled. It had been years since I last heard from her. I stood up and gave her a warm hug.“Hey, it has been a while. How have you been?” I asked as we sat on the sofa.“Well, I went abroad to clear my mind. I am sorry I was not able to stay in touch. I knew you were also going through a lot and had your own life to fix. I am aware of everything that happened to you over the past few years,” she said.“Are you planning to stay in the Philippines for good?” I asked.“Yes. Life abroad felt lonely. I am okay now,” she replied.I did not want to ask about what she went through. I sighed. I did not want to talk about the things I did to Natalia either. I still feel ashamed. I was hurt, but I also hurt her in return.“How is your child with Natalia?” she asked.“She has grown. She is such a kind girl,” I said with a smile.“I heard you have another child,” she said, looking at me.“With someone e

Marcus’ POVI was enjoying a day out at the vegetable farm with my kids when I suddenly noticed Selia standing beside us."Good morning, Marcus," she greeted with a basket in her hand. She must be here to harvest some vegetables."Good morning. Are you picking some vegetables?" I asked."Yes. Do you want to try it too?" she replied."Daddy, I want to try!" Belle said excitedly."Me too, Papa! I eat vegetables all the time. Mama always makes me eat them. That’s why I’m big and strong!" my son chimed in, making me laugh. I playfully ruffled his hair."Alright, let’s start picking," I said.The kids were bouncing with excitement. I held their hands as we walked into the farm. The green fields around us looked so peaceful and refreshing.As I watched the kids happily picking, Selia turned to me."Marcus... I missed you."I looked at her, eyebrows raised."How’s life here in the hacienda? Do you have a boyfriend now?" I asked.She sighed."You already know the answer, Marcus. I still love

Marcus' POVMy glare could burn through him. After everything my family did for his, taking them in, helping them, and this is how he repays us?“You have no gratitude! My family treated you well!” I gripped my gun tight and pointed it at him.“Gratitude?” Uncle Berto barked. “We served your family all our lives! I worked on this land for years. That debt you’re talking about? I already paid it in full! What I cannot accept is how you played with my daughter’s heart!”“You do not even know what really happened,” he went on, fists clenched. “You did not see how my daughter cried. You threw her aside like she meant nothing!”I stared at him, my chest tightening. “I owe you no explanation. Selia and I were never in a relationship, so stop acting like I used her.”Uncle Berto shook his head, voice rising, “You are the reason I lost my grandchild! You have no idea, my daughter lost her mind because of you. I stayed quiet about what you did to her. Now it is your turn to feel the pain of lo
