The emergence of such thoughts surprised me , but I took a deep breath before patting my cheek to re
mind myself to focus on the present . _ My only mission then was to get back everything I gave to
the two bastards .
For the next few days , I stayed at Isabel ‘s house while Carlos called me every day . Gradually , I
got used to exchanging sweet words with him in
a calm manner , despite my initial disgust , while Isabel praised me as she observed my actions .intera
ctions with him .
My acting skills improved by leaps and bounds in just a few days , while the time had
come for me to come
back . Also , I sure missed Bianca after hiding for so long . _ _ _ _ _ I actually missed her so much _
I came home the day before with a gift I picked out for her .

Upon entering my condo area , I lifted my head as I watched the house we lived in , remembering som
ething all the time . _ My mother was the one who paid for
the house , behind my father ‘s back . Carlos got so mad at me afterknowing that I
took my mother ‘s money that she swore to return as
soon as she had money . However , she never once mentioned him over the years , nor returned the fi

I quickly explained : “ The house is alittle messy now ” .
He did n’t seem to mind though . _ ” It’s normal when you have children ” .
With a lot of indignation , I signaled for him to sit down while I started to arrange the toys on
