Semua Bab REBORN AS A PLUS-SIZE GIRL: Bab 161 - Bab 170

Alvaro was gone, and my room had been cleaned up. Yet the lingering warmth of our lovemaking still crept through my entire body.Recalling what had just happened, my cheeks instantly flushed. Alvaro’s declaration of love—even though he hadn’t meant it for the real me—still managed to make my heart race erratically. I felt exactly like a teenager experiencing love for the very first time.And yet, I’d already been through that phase. I’d even tasted the bitterness of betrayal and heartbreak to the very last drop.“Your cheeks are really red. What are you daydreaming about, come on?”Lucia’s voice suddenly snapped me out of my reverie.I shook my head slowly while forcing a faint smile to hide my nervousness. “Nothing, really.”“Pfft, you’re definitely thinking about the steamy stuff you just did a moment ago, aren’t you?” Lucia snapped again, making my eyes widen in shock.“Luc! You…?” I stammered, overcome with intense anxiety that Lucia might have figured out what had just happened i

I smiled with satisfaction as I watched Dona get cornered. She even looked like she was trembling at the sound of her own husband’s loud outburst.She shook her head quickly, her eyes red as she held back the tears that were about to spill over from embarrassment and panic.“Honey, I didn’t mean it that way… You know what Varo is like, right? He used to really dislike Bella—he was even disgusted by her. So I thought—”“You thought what?” Alvaro snapped, cutting her off sharply. His gaze fixed on his stepmother with pure hatred. “I’ve told you time and again: never meddle in my affairs! You’re just my father’s wife, not my biological mother! If you ever touch or bother Bella again, I’ll make sure all of you are kicked out of this house!”Alvaro’s voice was so firm and thunderous that the dining room was instantly engulfed in a chilling silence.Dona couldn’t bring herself to utter another word. She bowed her head deeply while clenching her fists.Satisfied? Of course I’m very satisfied

Author’s POVAlvaro smiled smugly in the darkness. He had deliberately staged all those steamy scenes. He knew full well that Farel had been standing there quietly, watching Bella from outside, this whole time.Alvaro understood his stepbrother’s devious nature all too well. Farel was the kind of man who was always obsessed with wanting what Alvaro had—especially anything that brought Alvaro pleasure or belonged to him. In the past, Farel had managed to take Angela away from him. But this time, Alvaro would never let Bella be snatched away so easily.All those moans and sighs were a deliberate bait set by Alvaro to provoke Farel into doing something crazy.This tactic was extremely risky. However, Alvaro had carefully calculated everything. If Farel were reckless enough to do something foolish just to take Bella away, it wouldn’t just be Alvaro who would be furious—his grandfather and father would be too. Their father might immediately revoke all of Farel’s luxurious privileges, or ev

Today, Lucia, Sindi, and I were strolling through the grand corridors of the shopping center.I planned to buy a wedding gift for Bella and Haruka’s father. I also wanted to take the time to check out the skincare booths in the mall—to see if any competitors had already produced a serum formula similar to the one we’re developing. If there are any, the price and target market will most likely be different as well.My steps felt light and steady. Alvaro had already given me permission to go, especially since Lucia and Sindi were accompanying me. Even though I’m an adult and can certainly take care of myself.However, Alvaro has indeed become increasingly possessive lately, especially after we stayed at his parents’ house. He repeatedly warned me not to go out alone. If I wanted to leave the house, I had to be escorted.Alvaro said it was all for my own good. So, I just went along with it. Besides, the public is now beginning to recognize me as Alvaro Del Pino’s wife.Right now, we’re a

I remember that day very clearly! The day my body suddenly felt so hot and filled with a strange passion while I was visiting Alvaro’s office.That day, I intended to return a sweet surprise for my husband after finishing my routine inspection at the factory. However, the moment I set foot in his office building, an unstoppable, burning sensation suddenly swept through my entire body.I also remember running into Farel in the hallway. That man tried to approach me and strike up a conversation with a suspicious look on his face. Luckily, Sindi quickly stepped in to shield me and drag me away from there, not letting Farel touch or bother me even a little.Damn it! I almost fell into that scumbag’s dirty trap!“Where are you going?” Alvaro asked in surprise when he saw me suddenly turn on my heel, about to chase after Farel, who was being dragged out by several bodyguards.“I’m going to beat him up, Al! How dare he almost trap me! I’m going to break his hand!” I shouted passionately, bre
