Alison Pov..After 5 years..A lot of things happened in our family but it was fun and interesting at the end of the journey. At least we have learned from it and know how to deal in the future. We can't also inevitably stop our family keeps on growing as well. It just started with me wanting to be loved and love with revenge until we find our branches and learned that a big family was better. It doesn't matter if it's by blood or not related as long as you know the value of love and family. We become family as we trust and love each other no matter what.Our stories can be shared for others to learn from because some stories don't have happy endings but not all bad endings are bad! We can still learn from that and know how to navigate in the future. Don't be afraid to let go of people who are toxic and keep those who value who you are!After Windle and Karla's wedding that day they moved to Italy to help daddy Maximo and build a beautiful home. Laude and I manage LA and Alejandro and
Laude Pov...When I choose to let go of Elisa it wasn't easy but I can't see her every day crying secretly in the room missing our children. I wasn't there when they grew up and I already feel attached just staring at their photos and watching their videos every day. How much to her who is attached from the very start. I admit to pretending everything is fine as the days pass by but actually I am dying inside to kiss and hug them. I'm reflecting on my past attitude toward her and I know she is punishing me. I will take her punished without remorse if this is the only way she can take me in soon.Pride can really kill us big time. I was late to mature feeling young that I don't need her when she showed how she needed me. I don't have the right to get even to her or even complained or nagged. It's the price of my arrogance! I don't know what his family is telling my children about me but I am sure they didn't even tell them I am the father.I came to work today shutting out all my worri
Alison Pov... After 10 Years... The vast of happiness immense in every one of us was undeniably blissful. Though the ten years have passed was not all about happiness. We also feel sorrow, grief, loss of love once, a twist of jobs, and changing family status! Dad Maximo died five year's ago because of prostate cancer and mom died of a heart attack three years ago. Danica had a miscarriage on her third child as well and mom Leslie right now is sick too. The most interesting part of our circle was Laude and Elisa's love story and family. It's quite interesting and funny. Ethan is the spice in their hurricane love story. They decided that it wasn't just a love affair but true love and were serious about it after Elisa give birth to another baby girl. They have four children now and they just tie the knot five years ago and it was so beautiful wedding that we ever witnessed. Maybe a BArd Pitt and Angelina Jolie style but they don't like to be compared to them as they get divorced afte
I walked closer to where Georgina was! I look around but I can't anticipate what she is planning right now. No one is here, just the two of us. The corner of this 3rd floor is not yet fully opened and more space for lease. "Why did you want to see me here?" I asked Georgina, but she smiled triumphantly, looking at me as if she was looking through my soul. Georgina was Dwight's girlfriend when I appeared in their lives three years ago. "To give you what you deserve!" She sneered, showing her white creepy teeth. Ever since Georgina came back, she has always put me on a show, putting me in a dangerous stunt. Dwight's parents, especially his father, hate me so much when they are surrounded by the media because of me. Their family is one of the top richest here in Los Angeles, but I never married Dwight because of their wealth. I married him because I love him so much. I even followed him in my college days. Dwight is not the only son of the Smith Group, but he is next in line if his fat
I woke up dizzy and with an uncomfortable feeling like a lump was stuck in my throat, making it hard to swallow.. I tried again to swallow my saliva, but it was really hard. I winced trying to get up from my bed. I felt my body was being run by a ten - wheeler truck. My head was still buzzing lightly when I managed to sit, slowly sweeping my eyes through the whole room. I sighed deeply! It dawned on my mind what had happened. I cried silently, not wanting to get attention from anyone. I am already tired of this drama my whole life. Dwight never believes me. I thought things changed between us recently. "Alison!" A soft voice called. I looked at her dejectedly, letting my tears flow. The pain is sipping to my bones. "Cali...!" I cried calling her. She cried, walking towards me. She immediately drops the food she is holding. "It's okay Ali. Don't hold back! You need to release it." She said, patting my back as she hugged me tightly. I know she was crying too, but she managed to calm
Cali Pov...I feel uneasy waking up. I feel creeps in my stomach. I hope their divorce will work as her plan. I know how much she loves and treasured Dwight. She will do everything for him even if she will look like a pathetic puppy following around. I stretched a bit before I got up to prepare our breakfast. I was startled to see her prepare our breakfast and she was already ready to go to the city hall. I can't see any regrets or doubt written in her face. All I can see is a happy face ready to fly. She is wearing a tight purple dress paired with white pumps emphasizing her beautiful long legs and perfect body figure. She tied her long curly hair up, wearing bold pink lipstick. I smiled, looking at her perfect appearance. A fresh look to start after being unwanted. "Good morning Ali! You are perfect today!" I chimed, gracing at her. She smiled back twirling. I grab my black coat and lend it to her. She might need it. "You are coming with me, Cali. We need to celebrate later. You
We were supposed to celebrate after my successful divorce the other week, but something urgently crossed us inevitably. An unimaginable surprise knocked on my door before dawn. I was supposed to leave my surprise gift for both of them, but saving something important matters the most. I didn't expect to immediately book a ticket back to California to where I grew up. I know after two years seeing my family again is really strange and shameful. I am an ungrateful daughter exchanging them for the man who will just dump me. I shivered thinking of it and my stomach churned. I keep pacing back and forth in front of our house clenching my fist. What should I say to them? 'Aahh!' I muttered, frustrated. C'mon Alison! If you have the guts to leave them for two years, then you should have the face to face their wrath. Stop whining! I scolded myself, still staring at the door almost a few steps just to reach. I was startled when my phone rang! "Alison! Pull yourself together and knock on that
Alison Pov... As much as I hate it, I have to go back where my heart was torn apart. I cursed LA that I would never step foot there, especially that city, but here I am booking a flight going to Los Angeles. "Laude, do I really have to go there?" I asked him, dejected. I can't understand my emotions keep on flipping me this time. "I'm sorry sweetheart, but you really have to." He replied, desolate. "But how about my business? You know I can't leave like that." I retorted. "Ali, you know you can not fool me. I can take care of your business here. I am sending you there because I can trust you. My company needs someone like you that I fully trust to handle all the matters there. Besides, I'll be there after three months. I just can't leave my business here right now." He clarified, not leaving me any room to complain. "Fine! I'll try my best, Laude." I still replied, dejected. He smiled, coming closer to my desk. "I know you will, Ali. Thomas Corporation needs you." He emphasized,
