Seducing My Heartless Husband

39. The secret



” You are still the same, nothing has changed.” Patricia commented. He always had a way with his words and it was the same until now. His sweet and loving words were what made her fall for him back then.

” That’s true, nothing changed. Not even my heart, it still beats for you.” Mr Santos said.

Even after all these years, he still loved the humble and sweet Tricia he met years ago.

He tried to forget about her, erase his love for her in his heart but couldn’t.

He stayed married to his late wife, he had tried learning how to love her but his first love was deeply embedded in him. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get to forget about her.

He did not shy to express his feelings for her, he never did in the past and wouldn’t be doing that now.

After getting reunited, he was hell-bent on marrying her and fulfilling the promise he made to her years ago, that is if she was still willing to accept him.

Patricia felt her weak heart skip a beat upon hearing those words. They were the words she longed to hear for two decades. She wanted to tell him that it was the same for her, that it was him then, it is him now and will always be him.

All her life, he was the only man she had ever Loved.

” Tell me my Tricia, do I still have a chance? A chance to make it up for you, a chance to show you how much I love you and need you? A chance to finally form the family we promised each other.” He asked sincerely.

He was old now. Although he couldn’t bring back the time they lost apart, he could swear to use the remaining years of his life to make the woman he adored happy.

” What are you asking? You have to ask permission from the children first.” Patricia answered.

At this time although she wanted to scream a yes, she had to consider the feelings of Martina.

If her daughter and as fine with everything, then she was.

” Is that a yes my Tricia?” He was obviously delighted by her answer.

After chatting the whole day, the two spend the night together in their little house. It was a place where they made Most of their memories.

The three girls left to their houses.

” Can we head to my place? I want to tell you guys something.” Martina finally gathered the courage to confess.

She already figured out that if she missed such a good chance, she might never have the courage to reveal herself to Marina.

After what happened inside, she didn’t want her sister being in a tight spot anymore.

” Can’t you tell us tomorrow, am really exhausted.” Terry complained, pouting.

” It can’t wait.” Martina declared.

” What so urgent?” Marina couldn’t help but ask. As a lawyer who studied criminology, she could tell the anxiousness In Martina’s tone.

” It’s about who I really am.” After she dropped the bombshell, nobody asked another question.

Terry was excited to have Martina reveal her secret to her while Marina for some reasons started feeling nervous.

‘ What’s happening to me? why do I feel like this has something to do with me’ Although she remained calm on the surface, her heart was in turmoil.

As a secret undercover agent, she worried that her secret was out.

That would translate to either their new friend was a spy sent to eliminate her or an ally.

The drive to Martina’s house was silent. The three girls boarded Marina’s car and she was driving. Ofcourse, Marina chose the car herself.

After getting such an alarming notification, she had to prepare herself Incase they were being led to an ambuish or something.

After parking the car, the three girls headed inside.

Martina opened the door for them and ushered the two inside. It wasn’t the first time Terry came here, but it was Marina’s.

She proceeded with caution, looking right and left.

” Don’t be so alarmed. I would never hurt you.” Martina commented, trying to ease the tension building up between the two of them.

As a trained mercenary herself, she could easily read the mind of another person so she obviously saw how guarded Marina was as she walked in the house.

” I just think being cautious costs nothing.” That was what she learned after years of staying with the shadow.

Martina said nothing, just smiled politely as she led the two ladies to the house.

The three Ladies settled down on the coaches. Marina and Terry sat on one Coach while Martina sat on the other which was facing them.

” I want you to know that u never intended to lie to you in the first place. I approached Terry after I did my investigation because I wanted to get close to Marina.” Martina started.

Marina could feel her heart palpalating.

” Yeah, you already told me that today. So why did you want to get close to Marina?” Terry questioned. She dreaded discovering that the lady she invited to their lives and treated like a friend wanted to harm Marina. She would never forgive herself If that ever happened.

” And as I told you, my intentions were pure.” Martina replied, making Marina to snicker.

” Pure intentions and you lied your way to our lives? How convenient!” Marina couldn’t describe what she was feeling deep inside.

She hated being lied to and never tolerated betrayal.

” You have every reason to be angry at me, but that was the only way for me. Truth is, my mother sent me to look for you. I never met you nor knew about your existence until last year. Mom was seriously sick so she requested me to look for you. I knew that approaching you directly would be suspicious, so I opted to use your friend.” Martina confessed.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

” So what’s the deal about your mother? Why would she want you to look for me?” Marina found herself asking. Why would a stranger request her to be found.

” She’s not just my mother Marina, she is our mother.” Martina declared.

Her words making Terry’s eyes to almost pop out while Marina remained unfazed.

” Nice try but don’t you think you are being absurd. My mother is no more.” Marina replied, her lips stretching to w thin line to show that she was annoyed.

” Are you sure that Lady is your mother?” Martina shot back, looking at Marina challengingly.

Seeing the provocative look casted to her, even she started to falter.

That’s the woman she called mother for years. Although they had nothing in similar, her mother adored and loved her the Most. She treated her with utmost affection that she wouldn’t doubt her parentage.

That was until a lady challanged her. She could see that Martina was showing signs of certainty. Could it be that, the woman she came to love and address as mother was not her mother at all?

” What do you mean by that?” Although the seeds of suspicion were planted in her heart, she still wanted to be Sure.

Then Marina removed the fake facial mask and wig she wore.

Her new transformation shocking everyone in the room.

” Why are there two of you?” Terry asked dumbfounded. Why did the two of them look exactly the same.

” Because we are twin sisters dummy!” Both Marina and Martina answered at the same time.

” So now you believe me? The woman who raised is your mother, but not by birth. We lived in country B all these years with my mother. It was until recently that I learned that I have a sister, a twin sister at that.” Martina explained.

” What about your mother? Where is she?” Marina asked. She was finding it hard to call someone else as mother, not even when she was her biological mother.

It wasn’t easy for her to adjust to the fact that’s she had another mother apart from the kind lady who raised her all her life.
