Hi, everyone! Please expect more updates today. I am completing my monthly updates. I hope you understand. Thank you!
Floyd allowed Roxane to stay for a week at the mansion. He thinks that it was enough for Miguel to understand their situation. He gave Roxane a room and took her things. Floyd even brought a plane ticket for her. “You really wanted me to leave, huh?” Roxane said while looking at the ticket. “You don't need to be here, Roxane. Plus, you don't want Dwayne to see you again, right?”Roxane's turned sour. “Fine. Don't worry. I will explain everything to Miguel.”“You should. Because I really want you out of our lives, Roxane. Remember that you are here only because of him.”Roxane felt a sting in her chest. “Did I really hurt you that much? That's why you're like this now?” “This is not about me, Roxane. It’s about our son and what’s good for him.” “Fine! I’m sorry! I’m a fool that I left you! But can you blame me, Floyd? You had nothing back then! We are so poor that you can’t even provide for us!” Floyd frowned at Roxane. “I can provide, Roxane. It was just not enough for you. I am
Floyd woke up with his head aching. He grunted in pain as he touched his head. He remembered that he was at Minerva’s place. But when he slightly opened his eyes, he was already in his room. Floyd frowned and closed his eyes again. ‘How did I go home?’“You’re awake! Finally.” Floyd opened his eyes again when he heard a voice. He looked around and saw Roxane standing on the side of his bed. Her arms were crossed and her eyebrows were knitted. She was looking at him like he had done something wrong. “Roxane? What are you doing in my room?” he asked in his hoarse voice. He coughed a little when he felt his throat was dry. Roxane rolled her eyes. “Do you even know how you got home last night? My gosh, Floyd! And why are you with that girl? Really? What were you thinking?!” Floyd did not answer Roxane. He massaged his forehead. “Jude!” he called in a faint voice. He coughs again. “He’s not there, Floyd.” “Where is he?” “I don’t know. Some men came and Jude rushed out. I came here
Floyd laughed. He thought that Aby was playing with him. But she stood up firm in front of him without even blinking. Floyd controlled himself and stared at Aby. “You are serious? You are proposing to me?” Aby clenched her fists. “Whatever you call it. Yes. Let’s get married. It was part of the deal after all.” “Aby. I don’t know where this is coming from. But this is a ridiculous idea, okay? Thank you for your help. Now let me talk with Alfred.” “No! Listen to me, Floyd. I’ll call you Floyd, okay?” Aby stepped forward. “I need you to marry me. As soon as possible. We don’t have to make it grand. We can do it today if you want to.” Floyd rested his butt on his table and crossed his arms. Aby was always unexpected. He agreed to the deal because he thought she wouldn’t do it. “But why?” “Why?” She stepped forward again and stopped when she could feel Floyd’s breath. “We already kissed. I think we are mutual. We’ll do great as husband and wife.” Floyd stared into Aby’s eyes. He r
“Nothing good here anymore!” Roxane grunted. She threw her dress on the bed and sat down. Roxane was planning on preparing a dinner date with Floyd. She didn’t care if she looked desperate, but she would do it. She needed to have a place in this house. Floyd was a different man now. He was richer than Dwayne now. And she would get him back. Roxane heard a knock on her door and it opened. It was Belinda. “Mother.” Roxane stood up. “Do you need something?” Belinda frowned and looked at her bed. “Are you moving out already?” “Huh? No! I’m just checking my things.” “Okay. Anyway, I just came because I heard you gave orders to the maids. What are you planning to do?” Belinda’s expression became serious. “Are you trying to get my son again?” Roxane’s eyes widened. “W-What do you mean, Mother?” Belinda smirked. “I know what you are trying to do, Roxane.” “I don’t understand you, Mother. I just want dinner.” “Yes, and with Floyd.” Roxane looked away. “What is wrong with that?” Beli
“We told Mister Jacinto about our proposal, sir. And like what we expected, he did not like it,” Minerva reported to Floyd. “Dwayne was a proud man. He won’t give up easily.” “Yes,” Minerva sighed. “I saw Alfred at the building when we arrived, sir. You should be really careful. I believe he didn’t know your true identity. But he wanted to meet you soon.” “I should find a way to get that gang away from him.” Floyd looked at Minerva. “Thank you, Miss Wang. You can go home now.” “I still have papers to do, sir.” Minerva bowed at Floyd. “I’ll go now.” Floyd stood up and held Minerva’s arm when she was about to turn away from him. “Wait!” Minerva stopped and looked at him. He let go of Minerva and smiled. “Miss Wang. I don’t know why I felt there was a wall between us now. Is this about last night? Did I do something to you?” Minerva frowned. Her mouth opened and she was confused. She tried remembering what happened last night. “N-Nothing, sir. Why? Is there a problem? Did I say som
“Are you really sending her out, Floyd?” Belinda asked Floyd. They were near the door watching the maids putting Roxane’s things in the car. “This is the right thing to do, Mother. She’ll never change.” Floyd looked at Roxane. Jude was holding her because she kept on running inside.“Floyd, please! You didn’t mean that, right? Please!” Roxane begged. She finally made herself free from Jude. She ran to Floyd and kneeled at him again. “Please! Floyd! Please! I’m sorry. I won’t betray you again. I will not leave you! I’ll focus on our son!” She hugged his waist. Floyd sighed and touched her arms. “Stand up, Roxane. Don’t do this.” “No! I don’t want to leave! I can’t leave!” “Roxane–” A car suddenly stopped in front of the mansion. They all looked at it and waited for someone to get out. It was Aby. She was smiling brightly, but suddenly stopped when she saw Roxane’s position.“Ohh… What is going on here?” Aby asked. She couldn’t believe the scene she was seeing. Aby approached Floyd
“What?! How did you lose her?!” Floyd asked. Jude had just come back from the airport and reported that Roxane had gone away. “I’m sorry, young master,” Jude answered. He was looking down only at him. And embarrassed because he didn’t do his work right. “I already alerted the police. Anyone who sees Roxane will take her and tell us about it.” Aby smirked. She was still at the mansion. “We all know where she is heading now, right?” She looked at Floyd, who was standing near his table. “She’s with Dwayne now for sure. And because of what you did to her, I wouldn’t be surprised if she told him about you.” Floyd sighed and massaged his nape. He started walking back and forth as he thought about the possible outcome. Roxane will really do it. She was the type of woman that wouldn’t hesitate to do such things just to save herself. “But don’t worry. Even Dwayne learns about your identity. His company is yours already.” Floyd stopped and looked at Aby. “What do you mean?” “Well, I forgo
Roxane didn’t answer Dwayne. He was calm but she could see from his eyes that he didn’t like what she did. Why would he? She left him. Roxane tightened her grip on her clothes and forced a smile at Dwayne. “M-My love,” she said. Dwayne smirked and looked away. He stood up and started approaching her. “Did you enjoy it, huh?” Roxane flinched when Dwayne caressed his face with one finger. “Y-Yeah–” She gasped when Dwayne suddenly held his chin and his cheeks slightly. Roxane touched his arms and groaned. “D-Dwayne.” “You left? Why did you come back? Did you realize that you cannot live without my money, huh? Do you?” Dwayne’s face slowly turned red. His eyes were glaring at her. “D-Dwayne! You’re hurting me!” Roxane exclaimed. Dwayne smirked. “Am I? Am I?!” Roxane screamed when Dwayne suddenly let go of her and slapped her. She fell on the floor and cried. “P-Please! Let me explain, Dwayne!”&nb
