The Revelation

I smirked, "Abi wants to forget all the pain, you don't know what she worked so hard for. What she went through. So you can't blame me for replacing the places where you hurt her with good memories.”

"Do you think I don't know what you're doing? Maybe you don't know, I know what your real purpose is. Now that my memories are back."

I wasn't terrified when he stated that. Because I know my motives are genuine, if I made a mistake in the past, it was siding with Catherine in order for them to break up.

"I don't care about that, I know that my intentions in ruining your relationship with Abi because I see she won't be okay with you," I said boldly.

I was about to leave when he suddenly spoke.

"I don't want to just leave my wife with you, I'm grateful because you didn't leave her but I'm about to take Abigail back from you."

I frowned at him and at what he said, "Looks like you don't remember anything, is the memory you lost really complete? I doubt it."

"Well then, just so you know, I won't allow Abigail to ask for a divorce."

After he said that, I left the venue.

I'm not afraid because I know Abigail won't do to me what I'm worried she'll do to me: leave me.

**Abigail's POV**

David arrived in Mactan just a few hours later to pick me up at the shop.

I wanted to be able to rest but I couldn't do that either because it bothered me.

Ever since I read that message I have not felt good.

Instead of being happy, I was sad about the opening of II Nuovo Inizio. I worked hard on it but I also will not allow everything to be ruined and what I started will be ignored.

I was just stunned by the ceiling of my office, wondering who sent it.

But there's also a part of me that I should just stop caring because I'm happy now. Hayy the mess! I thought I would be happy to come home.

Someone knocked on my office door when I heard it, that stopped me from thinking.

That's David! Who else is there? He is the only one who will come and get me. I'm completely insane as a result of the message I received earlier!

I want to hug him right away, I missed him so much!

I immediately took my bag and excitedly went out.

But when I opened the door of my office, my heart suddenly started beating faster because of the person standing there.

"Jacob ?!" I call him.

He's changed his appearance, but I believe he's become better than before. His aquamarine eyes glowed even more brightly. His shoulder broadened much further; perhaps he's always worked out in the gym.

I didn’t expect this opportunity.

I knew we would meet but I didn't think we would meet so early.

Why do I feel this way?

Instead of rejoicing in his change, fear was the dominant feeling I had.

My cellphone rang. Trembling hands when I answered the call.

I looked at Jacob with no reaction on his face.

"Hon! P-Please, come over h-here. Make it fast, p-please!" I begged David.

I could no longer understand what he was saying because I was afraid of the way Jacob looked at me.

"Won't you greet me nicely, my wife?" My hair stood on end in terror when he stated it.

"What are y-you doing here!? Did you send the m-message to me earlier?!" I could no longer speak properly because of the trembling of my whole body.

"Why do you seem so scared of me? Relax. I'm not going to hurt you. The truth is, I want to talk to you because I want to apologize for everything I've done. I know it's wrong for me to leave you at times when we lost our so–”

"STUPID! NO ONE CAN COMPARE THE PAIN YOU CAUSED ME! AND DON'T WORRY EVEN IF YOU DON'T ASK FOR FORGIVENESS, YOU ARE FORGIVEN! BUT THIS IS MY ONLY REQUEST, DON'T COME NEAR ME! PLEASE!" I interrupted him. I couldn't stand how quickly he told me that stuff, like if I'd just misplaced a toy!

I noticed the high beam of a car approaching my shop, I ignored Jacob and passed him. I left the shop to go to the car that was coming.

David immediately got out of the car and ran our distance.

"Hon! Please, t-take me a-away from here!" I cried pleading with him.

He pulled me aside and faced Jacob behind me.

"Who told you to get close to my fiance?! What's the thickness of your face?! It's as if nothing happened five years ago!" David snarled.

Jacob smirked to David, "to my recollection, I'm still entitled to my WIFE."

When Jacob said that, David immediately punched him.

"Abigail is no longer yours!" I approached them and hugged David's back

“Let's go, hon! I don't want to be here anymore!"

"Abigail will come back and come back to me, mark my word," Jacob said with courage, and seemed he was really sure I would come back with him.

“YOU WILL APPEAR HERE AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED! I WISH INSTEAD OF MY SON WHO WAS LOST, I WISH IT WAS YOU! YOU ARE SO SHAMEFUL!" I shouted at him and pulled David into my car.

Fred and Jacob were left there, I also handed Fred the key to the shop and he would take care of it and David's car.

I was going to drive the car but David stopped me.

I could see the anger in him because of the redness on his face.

"Let me drive," he took the key in my hand, "I'm sorry if I took so long to come. It won't happen again."

I hugged him when he said that to me.

All of my fears appeared to vanish as I hugged him as if my concerns about what might happen had been banished.

With the hug he gave me, I proved that he was my safe haven.

Because of what had happened earlier, it was silent on the way to David's newly purchased house.

"Hon, I'm sorry," I said.

"Why are you sorry? You don't have to apologize, you didn't know he was coming." He calmly told me.

"That's not the only reason, I'm sorry because I know you were hurt by what he said."

"No matter what he says," he said, holding my left hand, "I only believe one thing, and that is that you love me."

I smiled at what David said, and instead of him kissing my hands, I kissed his hand softly.

~

We got home right away, it's just that this place isn't really that far from my shop.

I didn't expect the house to be so big, it's a mansion!

"Hon, are you serious? It's just the two of us, and you bought a mansion?" I joked.

"I want them to be able to run freely inside when we're married and have children," he remarked as he took my hand in his.

We entered the mansion and the swimming pool welcomed us.

I was in tears since I had never experienced anything like this before. When I married Jacob, he merely buried me in misery, despite the fact that our dreams had come true, but he swiftly took them back due to an accident.

I cried because I regretted marrying Jacob.

"Did you like it? I'm sorry I didn't ask you what you wanted to look like when we lived, I know you'll be explored for such things, we're in a hurry, and I also don't want us to stay in that place," he told me, and I cried even harder because I didn't know what I had done to deserve someone like him at this point in my life.

If only David had been the first, I would not have been like this.

"I liked it so much, even if you don't ask me I know you have a taste in choosing something like this."

David hugged me tightly, "I love you so much. You don't know how happy my heart is that you chose me every day."

"I will choose you not by choice, but I will choose you because you are really what I want."

He touched my lips with a kiss.

He removed himself from hugging me, I thought he was about to go but I was wrong.

He cupped my face and he caressed my lips with a kiss, but it didn't end there.

He gave me a deeper kiss, I felt hot again because of what he was doing to me. He is driving me crazy again and he wants me to ask for more than he is giving me.

He slowly inserted his hand into my dress.

When his hand on my breast reached the target, I moaned at what he did.

We backed away and I couldn't open my eyes properly because of the pleasure when he was playing with my nipples while he was kissing me deeply.

I don't know if we walk towards the door of the mansion is right because it is already dark around here, it is already night and only the moon acts as light throughout the mansion.

As we pushed backward, David stopped playing with my nipples as he turned his attention to touching my pussy.

I was even tickled because he did play there.

"Hon, you're wet."

I blushed as a result of what he said, but I preferred to kiss him more passionately.

I felt like he was about to insert his fingers into my clit when we suddenly fell into the swimming pool.

The entire mansion was filled with laughter.

We both looked at each other, "Maybe this isn't the right time to do that." David said to me, and then we laughed out loud again.

**Jacob's POV**

I can't accept what Abigail and I just talked about earlier.

I immediately felt remorse for still being stubborn even though I knew I was the reason why she was like that.

I wish I had humbled myself, but I did the opposite.

I wish I had greeted her first.

I'll admit I was hurt when I saw her with David, and how much I regret seeing them both together.

It breaks my heart that I wasted the opportunity in the past to bring back the way we used to be.

I’m sure at the launch of II Nuovo Inizio Abigail’s parents were there.

I need to be prepared.

Am I being so selfish that I don't have to deal with her problems?

I wish I had helped her through her downs at times when her mind was so chaotic.

But how can I do that?

If I don’t remember, I know I can only hurt Abigail because I also don’t know how I felt about her at those times.

My meditation was shattered when Catherine suddenly entered our room.

"What's running through your mind again? I've been calling you to eat, your daughter is waiting for you."

She would have come closer to me, but I never let her come closer to me.

"Look at you! What's wrong with you?!" She's shouting again, this is the reason why I can't stay with her.

"What about me?" I asked her.

"Don't you still love me?" Is she still there? I did everything to show you how much I love you! Finally, all of Abigail's shortcomings, I make up for them! I didn't leave you when you were confused in your life!"

"Don't blame me for all this! Because first of all, you're wrong too! You made me believe you were Abigail even if you weren't! And you will never be Abigail, Catherine!" When I said that to her, she suddenly slapped me hard.

"One day you'll also come back to what you did to me!" She said and left me in the bedroom.

Isn't it coming back to me yet?

A few years have passed and I’m sure it’s coming back to me what I’m doing to you.

Abigail does to me now everything I do to you.

Abigail slaps me for the fact that I’m stupid!

I picked up my cellphone and typed.

My investigator gave me Abigail's number so I could text her.

"Abi, let's talk. Please? I don't want to say anything but I just really want to clarify what happened before. To ease my feelings and conscience."

I already sent it, I don’t know if she can read it in a sincere way because I said it sincerely.

I was about to leave the room when my cellphone suddenly rang.

I answered it right away.

"Yes, Jacob here," I told the person who called me on the other line.

"Sir, I changed the number. It looks like someone tracked me for sure. I want you to know something, Sir Jacob!"

When I hear his voice I already know him, it was Ian, my investigator.

"What's that, Ian?" I'm curious what he has to say.

"Sir Jacob, I found out that Catherine and Abigail are half-sisters."

When he said that I felt like I was devastated.

"You mean the woman I'm with is my wife's sister?!" I can not believe it!

It was as if I was suddenly startled!

I have a child with my wife's half-sister?!

"Yes, Sir Jacob! That's right. I also couldn't believe it at first but the number of tests I did look at the DNA of the two of them and it turns out that they are really related. But what I do know is that they don't know about it. . "

My world seemed to crumble from what I had heard.

I couldn't make sense of what I was hearing.

How did that happen?

Is Catherine aware of anything about this? But she can't know anything because if she did, she wouldn't have allowed our situation to happen.

And then there's the fact that we've been together for five years and I haven't seen her meet Abigail's parents.

There's also no indication that she's a Lopez.

I also don't recall Abigail saying anything about it to me.

Some things I don't know yet, particularly the cause of my parents' deaths.

I still have a lot of puzzle pieces to put together. Because the people behind it are so powerful, and because I am so powerful and have so much money, I am unaware of the other things I need to know.

People who envy or despise me, I believe, are more capable of doing this to me. But I can't think of anyone else who could be behind it.

"Sir? Sir?"

I was in a trance when someone spoke on the other line.

"I-Ian, can I know your source? And can you send me all the details?" I stuttered when I said it to him.

"Yes, sure, Sir! I will send it to you once I have finalized the full details." His voice was mixed with certainty.

"All right, Ian. Thanks! Don't forget to send it."

After I said that, I dropped the call.

I went to the dining room because my daughter was waiting for me.

She's Callie, she's already four years old now. She is sweet to me, we are actually closer than Catherine.

But there is a part of me that feels like something is still missing even though I can see and be with him. I didn't want to hurt her feelings because she was just a child and had no idea what was going on around her.

I love Callie, no matter what happens.

"Daddy! I missed you!" Callie greeted me with a tight hug.

"I missed you too, baby. How's your vacation in your Lola's house?" I said to her and I caressed her face.

"It's okay, but Grandma always asks me about you. I just said you're always okay and you're always busy with your work."

Her face was saddened when she said that.

*I'm sorry, Callie. I just really need to know a lot in my life.*

**Someone's POV**

"Abigail's shop is about to open, what are your plans?" he says.

"I'm going to make her look like she's a big pest in everyone's life! She will regret not having died with her son!"

"That's what you're going to do right away? You should greet her first with Congrats."

"Congrats because she will soon disappear from the world?"

We laughed like a demon.

Jacob ... David ... and Abigail ...

*We would not have continued but it looks like the three of you will still be on the same side.*
