Chapter 76
“Hmm?” I sparingly answer while looking at the stars in the sky. Unlike in the past they were many now.
“Lara was not the cause of my pain. It’s you.” he said so I turned to him.
“Why, why me? We’re not even moving there.” I said in a steady voice.
He laughed. “You’re too defensive. What did you do getting DLC ?? on me then?”
I took a deep breath. “It was a mistake, okay? I thought it was you Uno so then I decided to take the DLC from you but I also lost it in my mind. I didn’t know that my staff continued that. But, don’t worry. I’ll return your shares. There’s nothing too much, nothing too little. ”
Her one eyebrow rose. “Sure?”
I nodded. “Sure sure. Another time my Mommy told me that it’s bad to steal so I’ll give you back your company. I don’t need it anyway. I already have a lot of companies.”
“You’re so rich now. Tell me, how big was your bank account?” he asked, frowning.
I smiled mischievously. “Why? You stole? I’m sorry but I won’t tell you. Be tough there.”
He blinked. “Since when did you become assuming? I have money of my own, Rigella.”
“I was just kidding!” I said and laughed.
He just shook but I could see the lift of the edge of his lip. “You’re too bold.”
“Oh, yes I am.” I smiled at him too.
‘that’s why I’m in love with you.” he said and averted his eyes.
I was stunned and also averted my eyes. I looked out the window and there I saw the redness on both my cheeks!
I bit my lower lip and grinned. I don’t just need your words, Ivan! I need your actions!
After our two -hour drive Ivan’s car stopped in front of a mansion. The front of the house was in my direction so I stared at it the most. That’s not Ivan’s vacation house. Then whose house did we stop at?
I was blown away by the disappointment. Why didn’t he take me there to their vacation house? I still want to be there too!
I frowned at the house because of the scattered men in white t-shirts there. Bodyguards maybe that? I also do not know. Only now have I been here even though I sometimes visit this Realondo.
“Yes … Come with us here, bro … Damn you, Trajan! Just get your ass off there and fetch us here! Your guards won’t let us in if you don’t pick us up here in front of the house! .. Alright. I get it. Just fucking fetch us here … Really? Okay, bye. ” I can hear Ivan talking on his cellphone. Who was that?
Ivan opened the driver’s seat door so I also opened the door in my direction and got out of the car first. Maybe later he will leave me here!
Ivan walked in front of me and glared at me. I just stared at him and shrugged. He grabbed one of my arms causing me to turn away from him. What now, De Leon?
“I was about to help you to get out of the car but you immediately get out from there. Tsk.” he said shaking his head while frowning.
“I’m not crippled so you don’t have to help me out of the car. I can handle myself alone.” I replied in the negative.
“But … I’m your husband! I should treat my wife like a queen!” he moaned, frowning at me. Wife? Husband?
“What do you mean? I’m not your wife anymore because I already gave you the annulment papers!”
He smiled. “But do you know if I signed or not?”
I sighed and looked at him in disbelief. “You didn’t sign?” I asked nervously
He nodded. “Yes. Why should I release the woman I love?”
I was shocked. Just … What the hell?
Damn you, Ivan De Leon!

Andrea’s POV
“Yes. Why should I release the woman I love?” he said smiling.
I looked at him for a while. It was as if what he said caught my full attention. Like, I want to change my gaze and punch him but I can’t. It was as if in no time my eyes were magnetized to his eyes and I could not take my gaze away from there.
I don’t know if it was enough that he didn’t sign the annulment papers I gave to make me believe he loved me. Yes and she says she loves me but I want to experience what other women were going through. was that the type of flirting? Because not once in my life has he flirted with me. We got married right away.
I want, at least, to experience being courted by him. But, I feel like it’s a shame to just tell it to him. We were here to rest and then I will say that to her? It’s too awkward. And it’s just weird to hear that I’m going to seduce my ex-husband, no, I mean my wife. She was still my wife.
Does it feel good to know that the person you love hasn’t left you? Though, I was hurt then because he wanted an annulment as if he had recovered from it as well. He never let me go even though I left him. was that really how an Ivan De Leon would love?
Maybe yes. Even when we got married he still loved Lara. He can sacrifice everything, endure all pain just so that the person he loves will not step on him. And if he was beaten he would not give up because he had the courage to fight. For him to regain the person he loves.
I want to believe that he loves me but … I can’t just make a decision. I’m a type of person who need proofs and validations before I can make a decision. That”s one of the things I’ve learned over the years. Because when I rush there might please something bad.
I guess I’m the opposite of other people? Or was Ivan the opposite? After all, men often recover in action because they were ashamed to express their feelings while women wait for words rather than deeds. It was said to those I read in the book, ‘words without action was useless and action without words was confusing’, so there must be a balance between word and deed.
“Woah. There’s a staring contest here. I’m not informed.”
I blinked and frowned slightly when I heard an unfamiliar voice. Ivan and I turned in front of us and I saw a white man with a grin on his face.
“Damn you, Zander. Why were you taking so long?” I heard Ivan ask the man.
Wrinkled when I stared at your man. He looked familiar to me. Have we met yet?Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“Wow, huh? You’re the one who disturbed sleep there and then you’re going to complain?” annoyed the man said.
I think Ivan was just a little taller here than the man in front of us. His skin was also white and I can see his biceps because he was only wearing a white shirt. Clean cut her hair and thicken her eyebrows. His eyes were also very black, his nose was piercing and his lips were red.
He also has a bit of a resemblance to Ivan when viewed from the side. He was really familiar. Where did we meet? At an event? Party? Or business conference? Ah, I don’t know.
