Where It All Began: Part Two

I spent the following days in a solitude heavy with sorrow. I had already fallen far too deeply for the strange man whose life I had saved that night. Yet, I was self-aware enough to know that I could do nothing, nor could I lay claim to any rights, because on the flip side, I had indeed committed a fatal mistake.He should have received proper medical treatment and regained consciousness much faster if I had immediately brought him to the city hospital that night. However, my blind ego and obsession kept him bound to this dilapidated house instead, harboring a secret desire to possess him all to myself.Now, he was gone, far out of my reach alongside Rosalina, and I had absolutely no idea where to even begin looking for him.I let out a long, heavy sigh that felt suffocating in my chest. I had to forget him. Moreover, Rosalina had strictly warned me that the man named Lucas was an incredibly powerful and dangerous figure. I didn't want to court trouble with the

Where It All Began: Part Three

I did not step foot back to my old house in the village that night after successfully fleeing Lucas’s grand estate. Armed with the remnants of whatever savings I possessed, I chose to survive in isolation, hidden away in a corner of this massive city.My decision was not without reason. I was utterly terrified that if I chose to return to the village, Rosalina would come to visit and catch on to my pregnant condition. Therefore, I chose to hide in the city, settling in a crowded, squalid slum where Rosalina’s long, elegant legs would never dream of treading.In this sanctuary of escape, I eked out a living by helping an elderly woman sell flowers by the side of the highway. I even took the unilateral step of changing my identity and name to Diana. I took this desperate measure solely because I didn't want Rosalina—or even Lucas himself—to ever discover the existence of myself and my child.I had already been consumed by a gripping terror

The Vow of Redemption

I truly still could not believe that fate would lead me to cross paths with Samuel. That dignified young man turned out to be the husband of my little girl, Emelia.Dear God... for decades, I had never laid eyes on my daughter's face. For decades, I was locked away without ever hearing even a shred of news about her. And now, the newborn infant I once left at the threshold of the orphanage door had actually grown up and married.To be honest, throughout the journey earlier, I was plagued by an overwhelming wave of doubt and fear. Yet, the string of gentle explanations from Samuel gradually tore down the walls of my terror. His words set my entire soul ablaze, sparking an intense impatience to meet her at once. I wanted to tightly embrace her body, which might now be much taller than me. And in my mind, I was absolutely certain that my little girl must have grown into an exceptionally beautiful woman."Meet us? Who is it, Samuel?"A woman's soft vo

Testing Papa’s Patience

Pov Samuel "Well, look who’s here. What on earth are you doing out here?"I instantly turned my head upon hearing the deep voice interrupting the stillness of the night. Instead of answering Papa Lucas’s question right away, I chose to take another slow sip of the wine from the glass in my hand, savoring the warm sensation burning down my throat.A crisp chuckle escaped the middle-aged man’s lips. Damn it. I knew exactly that the old man in front of me was thoroughly mocking me."Just one night without your wife by your side, and your appearance already looks this pathetic, Samuel?" he teased playfully as he stepped forward, joining me at my side. His large hand reached for an empty glass, filling it with the deep red liquid from the same bottle of wine.I let out a long, slow sigh to brush off the exhaustion. Turning around, I gazed at Papa Lucas with a expression that had returned to its calm and deadpan state."I&r

The Silence of a Stubborn Heart

Pov Lucas My eyes simply couldn’t stop drifting to a single spot since the moment Melissa stepped foot back into this house. Honestly, a massive surge of happiness completely enveloped my heart, being able to see her in the flesh again after decades of being torn apart by time.Yet, that joy was instantly clouded by a heavy, suffocating layer of regret the second the absolute truth came to light. The fact that this poor, unfortunate woman was the very one who had saved my life on that bloody night.Looking back at the past, I felt like an absolute bastard for how poorly I treated her. Back then, I ruthlessly labeled her as a hired woman, reducing her to nothing more than a tool to satisfy my lust and passion night after night.Until at some point, without me even realizing it, I began to feel incredibly comfortable in her presence. I even found myself plagued by a strange longing to sleep in her warm embrace every time night fell. But my ego a

The Perfect Excuse

My eyes simply could not break away from Melissa’s every move. In fact, when they were all getting ready in the living room to leave for Samuel’s house, I spontaneously bolted upright from the sofa in a motion that was far too rushed."Oh, Papa, are you coming along to Samuel’s house too?" Emelia asked directly, her brow furrowing in confusion.I jolted slightly, then hurriedly shook my head to cover up how rattled I was. "N-no... Papa just wants to walk you all to the front door, that's all," I replied, scrambling for a reasonable excuse. Though, if I were to be completely honest, the deepest recesses of my heart were screaming to climb right into the car with them. But there was a wave of doubt and a pride far too massive for me to ever voice out loud."Well, if Papa really wants to come, it's totally fine, Papa. Who knows... maybe you just can't bear to be apart because you suddenly miss Mama Melissa, right?" Samuel teased, a smirk plastered

The Mastermind

Pov Emelia I seriously couldn’t comprehend how Samuel could speak so boldly in front of Papa Lucas earlier. His teasing words successfully coaxed me into joining him to corner Papa before we left for home.Yet, thinking back on it... ah, if only Papa and Mama could truly reunite as husband and wife again, I would easily be the happiest person in the entire world."Samuel, what exactly are you planning?" I asked bluntly the moment the two of us stepped inside our master bedroom.I clearly didn't buy it for a second that Samuel could be so careless as to leave his phone at Papa’s house. Considering how meticulous and perfectionist Samuel was in everything he did, it was practically impossible for him to be that reckless.Instead of answering my question right away, Samuel merely flashed a faint smirk. With a swift, unexpected motion, he possessively pulled my waist, hoisting my fragile frame onto his sturdy lap."Ah, Samuel..." I let out

Lucas’s Proposal

Pov Melissa I let out a long, shaky breath, feeling a profound sense of relief once our car finally pulled up and parked perfectly in the driveway of Samuel’s estate. To shake off the fatigue and the lingering unease that had been clinging to my mind since earlier, I chose to step out of the room, opting for a leisurely stroll to admire the sheer grandeur of my son-in-law’s architecture.Honestly, my heart was in disarray. My pulse raced at an irregular rhythm. I knew... I was painfully aware that from the moment we sat at the dining table until the final seconds before we departed, Lucas’s eagle-eyed gaze had not once wavered from me.I noticed the intensity of that stare, but I chose to play it cool, pretending to be indifferent and remaining silent. I didn't want to get ahead of myself. I kept convincing my heart not to assume that this man was suddenly harboring feelings for me.Ah, besides... how could I, at my age, still be f

Caught Red-Handed

Pov Emelia "Let me go, Samuel... didn't we just finish?"I tried my best to wriggle and break free from the confinement of Samuel’s muscular arms, which were still wrapped possessively around my waist. A bursting sense of curiosity made me impatient to head downstairs, intending to sneak a peek at how my parents' interaction was unfolding in the garden."Where on earth are you going, sweetheart?" he replied, his voice raspy with the signature tone of a man who had just satisfied his desire. Instead of letting go, his grip actually tightened, holding my bare stomach flush against his warm, broad chest.I let out a long, slow sigh, then turned my head to look at Samuel with a feigned pout. "I'm going downstairs to check on Mama and Papa. We're completely done now, Samuel... Come on, let me go, okay?" I whined playfully.I watched as Samuel let out a defeated sigh. Slowly, he loosened his embrace around my body and sat up from his reclined

Taken Once More

That night, an absurd level of luxury unfolded right before my eyes. It took Lucas only a few hours to completely turn the world upside down; a wedding function so grand and prestigious was pulled off flawlessly. The decor, the cuisine, and the high-society guests were all ready, packing the grand ballroom to its limits.Yet, tonight wasn't just about celebrating the reunion of my parents' long-lost love. Tonight, Papa also used the momentum to officially introduce me to the entire world.Through his absolute, undeniable speech at the podium, Papa announced to the public that all this time, he had a biological daughter—a daughter who was now officially the wife of Samuel de Leon.Instantly, a massive wave of whispers rippled through the grand ballroom. The entire world was bound to be shaken. How could it not be? For decades, Lucas had been known as a cold-blooded man who locked himself away, never once rumored to be involved with any w
