and the most painful was that the Crimson's probable scheme had taken place. Sir Lewis's family

Tanda also said that the Crimsons are very angry with my family and there are many misunderstandings between the two clans.

Tanda found out that they did it because he had been investigating it for a long time. So Tanda wanted to keep me away from them as much as possible

Tanda was very angry when I saw it in his eyes while he was talking, he wanted revenge.

But I, as he said that while listening to what he was saying I did not know how I would feel

But I'm only sure of one thing about how I felt when Tanda said that, Angry. I felt angry and would make sure if they paid for everything they did.

In the short time we have lived here, I have changed a lot, I have learned to fight and defend myself.

From time to time Tanda takes me to the Company

four years, four years have passed. I am already a full-fledged Doctor, sometimes I also handle the Company if I do not have a schedule at the Hospital

If it was Admiration or Liking and what I used to call my feelings for him, now I feel Hate and anger towards him and his whole family.

I don’t care if he has nothing to do with what his family did to my family.

If he has nothing to do I don't care, Because his family ruined my Family

I need justice, and I'll make sure I get it.

They will pay for it, I swear !.

'"Doctor, do I still need to continue my dialysis?'" My patient asked

"No need Ma'am, based on the results you are one hundred percent okay but come back here after one week, for the last test to make sure you never go back to dialysis'" I explained, thank you for letting me know na

Today is the day I return to the Philippines, Tanda said I don't have to go to the Hospital today so I can rest because my flight is this afternoon but I refused

I arranged my belongings and removed my lab coat. I got up and took my bag out and I myself if office and walked to the hospital lobby

Everyone who passes by as a doctor nurse bows down to greet me and the patients I pass by all smile at me.

When I got out of the hospital, I went to the parking lot. I opened the door of my car and entered, I left and drove back to the mansion to make sure Tanda was already waiting.

When I got home I found Tanda talking to a man, the man had turned his back on me so I didn't know who it was.

When I got close to them, I kissed Tanda on the cheek and he tapped me on the shoulder

I looked at the man in front of him

'"Babe, Did you miss me?'" She said smiling, I smiled and approached her to give her a hug.

'"Of course Babe I miss you so much!'" Smiling if said

"Your Grandfather told me he didn't allow you to go to work now but you still came in. So you should have just rested, Today is your flight, Oh I mean our flight '" he preached.

He is Greg my boyfriend, half Filipino and half American. One of Tanda's business partners

"Nah, it's okay. Wait me I'll just take a bath and change my clothes. It's still early for our flight '" I explained, it just took my breath away.

I kissed it quickly and went up the stairs to my room

As I said I will take a bath first, in the last four years a lot has happened

Greg and I have been in a relationship for only a year and Tanda intends to marry us in case I refuse for unknown reasons. Hmm maybe because I still have a lot to do, I still have a lot of plans

Not because I’m not sure of him. I love him and that’s where I’m sure

Am I sure?

But why is it that I am against Tanda's plan ?.

I knew in myself that something seemed to be wrong. And I can't find what that is

I love him! And I love him! That is the truth.

But the truth is, do I really love Greg? Oh because that's what Tanda wants.

Ayshhhh !! What is that angle of my life!

I got dressed and arranged my clothes and put them in the suitcase. He will come back to the Philippines with me because we need to take care of something, Tanda will be next to us.

Tanda couldn't take us to the Airport because he still had to do something

It also took a few hours before it landed and stopped, signaling that we had reached our destination

We are in the Philippines! I'm back

We walked out of the Airport where someone was waiting to pick us up

Greg opened it for me and let me get in the car first but before I could finally get in the car something hit me in the eye.

I saw him! I am sure. He even turned to the mirror. I’m pretty sure.

But why is this? Why is my heart beating so fast and strong.
Is it because I hate him and his whole family?

That seemed like a very distant reason for my heartbeat to get stronger and faster

Lewis what are you doing to me?

'"Hey! Airelle are you okay?'" Greg asked

"Hu-uh, ahh Of course it's okay. Are you okay?" I asked confusedly when I got back to normal!

Ay tangek!

I got in the car and sat down, I calmed myself down as well.

'"Would you like us to go through the restaurant first?'" Greg asked

"Ah no, just take me home" I refused

'"You sure?'" He assured, I nodded and leaned on his shoulder

'"Babe wake up, we're here'" Greg patted me softly so I woke up

I didn't realize that I had blinked

It was about to enter the house when I stopped it

"You should go home now, and take a rest. I know if you're tired too."

He nodded and kissed me then said goodbye and left I just looked at the car leaving and just sighed.

'"Welcome Back Ma'am'" smiling greeted the maids as I entered inside the mansion, I smiled back at them and greeted

I continued to climb the stairs and went up the stairs to my room, when I opened it my bed was clean and tidy, it looked like the maids had made it when Tanda said that I was coming back to the Philippines.

My suitcase, which the bodyguard had picked up earlier, was already on the side

I sat on the bed and looked around the entirety of the usual if bedroom

The photo of my parents and me was still on my bed side, so I took it and looked at it

"Mom, Dad. I'm back! I wish I was still with you until now. Don't worry Mom, Dad they will pay for what they did to us. I will make sure they pay for what they did." "I spoke weakly while looking at the picture

I want to take revenge on them, but there's a part of me that I don't want. Because knowing is bad

I feel when I do this to him, to them, to his family. I will be hurt

Another thing that bothers me is the wedding that Tanda says, I'm against his plan, Greg's plan.

I love Greg, but because-

Ah as long as I love him,

He helped me

Sometimes I need a companion, he is there

So I love him.

But why can't I answer his question if I want to marry him?

I looked at my sling bag when my cellphone rang, I picked it up and looked at who was calling

But Unknown number, but I still answered
