Chapter 4

Chapter 4Solana peeked at the door after hearing Zent’s voice the next morning while he was talking to someone on his smartphone.So he still had not left? What a miracle. His world usually revolved around his manager, the same woman who had practically thrown the bitter truth in her face—that something was going on between them whenever they were together. But now, that woman was already Zent’s mistress because he was married to her.“What can I do? Grandpa wants this,” Zent answered irritably to the person on the other line. “I’ll see what I can do. I’ll just call you—just wait, okay? This is also for your future. If I keep refusing his will, I won’t inherit anything. Everything will go to my child with… Solana. Do you understand?”She took a deep breath but stayed hidden by the door frame.“Yes, you heard me right, Rachel. Grandpa has already decided, so we have no other choice but to get along properly. And please do not make any scene. If you were handling my Hollywood career be

Chapter 4.1

Solana suddenly screamed, “Hey, you fat horse!” when someone from beside the plants suddenly grabbed her arm. She was pulled forward and bumped into the large body of her husband.“Do you really think you can escape from me, Solana? You’re ruining me.”“Ruining? You are the one ruining yourself, not me. If you didn’t have a mistress, then I would have nothing to tell Grandpa. But the problem is, you do. So sorry, because I am honest to the moon and back.”Zent closed his eyes for a moment, obviously trying very hard to control his anger. If she were just a tiny ant, he probably would have crushed her already.“We are only married on paper.”“Hmm,” she nodded. “You should have told yourself that last night when you touched me.”He had no answer to that, so she pushed him aside and started walking toward the house.She was already tired and exhausted. All she wanted was to lie down on the bed and sleep. She did not care about her husband and his performance as the best actor in the worl

Chapter 5

Chapter 5Solana kept talking while leaning against the hospital bed’s headboard. Her mother sat beside her, still wearing house clothes and carrying the smell of fried garlic. Worry was written all over Nita’s face as they both listened carefully to the doctor.“Thank you, Dr. Rojas,” Lazaro said politely to the doctor, who was also Solana’s obstetrician.“You’re welcome, Señor Lazaro,” Dr. Rojas replied. “Zent must be extra loving and caring because his wife’s pregnancy is quite delicate. I don’t see any serious problem aside from her blood pressure dropping. Vitamins should help with that. Some pregnancies are much more difficult and require complete bed rest. Just don’t hesitate to bring her to the hospital if necessary.”“Yes, Doctor. Zent will take care of it,” Lazaro answered with confidence. “Thank you.”Lazaro gave Zent a look, and the younger man immediately understood. The two of them escorted the doctor outside the room.As soon as they were gone, Nita turned to her daught

Chapter 6Zent’s eyes followed Solana as she stepped out of the house wearing her uniform. He was leaning against his car, casually scrolling on his smartphone. The sunlight reflected slightly on his face, highlighting the small nose piercing that made him look bold and attractive. The earrings on his ears suited his sharp features. He wore a black hat that added to his confident style. With slow movements, he opened the door of the limousine, acting as if he had no urgency in the world.“Be careful, Solana,” Lazaro said as he walked out behind her.“Yes, Grandpa. Please do not worry.”She smiled at him and moved toward the car. She entered without looking at Zent. She did not want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her reaction. The night before, he had slept on the sofa. He had always been against her education. He believed she would depend on him forever. He probably wanted her to remain silent and simple. But Lazaro supported her dream of continuing her studies, and Zent could
