SISTER IN LAW

THIRTY ONE: THE TALK

FREDERIK'S POV

"Daddy, where are we going?" Daniel asked me. We are now on our way to a place where we will finally meet someone I longed to find "You will meet someone, young man..." I answered and smiled at him.

It's been a week, and little by little everything is returning to normal... to the right. I mean.

Yesterday, I received a phone call from someone, and now we are going to see him

And also, yesterday night, I received a text message from Leysa... saying, "I need to talk to you". That's it! I did not reply immediately but I called her, but she did not answer my calls, and her phone was already turned off. But after this, I will go to her. I also need to talk to her. I will follow what is in my heart.

A few hours later we also reached our destination, it's an old mansion, here in Rizal. But its beauty is obviously maintained. We got out of the car, I led Daniel.

"Whose house is this, Dad?"

"You'll see.”

And we entered the house. A maid and gardener also greeted us.

Happiness is visible on their faces because of seeing us, especially the child.

"He is in the room, Sir. He has been waiting for you," said the maid, who was obviously looking forward to our arrival. I just smiled and walked to the second floor.

I noticed Daniel watching around.

When I reached the first door of the room there I knocked three times and slowly opened it and entered. And I saw a man, he was in a wheelchair and facing the scene outside his window.

"Hey." I said that made him turn around in our direction

He smiled at me, a genuine smile, a smile of friendship. And he looked at the child I was holding. He slowly moved his wheelchair in my direction. “Daniel, right?" he asked the child, and smiled. The boy just nodded in agreement with him.

"Who is he, Dad?" Daniel asked me, I noticed the passing of resentment and sadness in the eyes of the person in front of us.

"He is your real Dad, Daniel. He actually has the same name as yours." I calmly replied, Daniel is a smart kid so he is not difficult to make it understand.

And yes, we are now in the house of Daniel Apolonio, who only woke up two weeks ago and was able to recover completely. That's why I can't find him and he doesn't show up because he got to an accident that nearly killed his life. The car he was riding in fell into a ravine on the way to Baguio.. that was the day Diana said that she was going to a conference, and only now did I know that the conference she always attending was the time she and Daniel are seeing each other.

Oh well, the accident is being investigated because it looks like some foreplay has taken place. Luckily, Daniel did not fall that deep, and he survived and recovered.

"Huh? So you are not my real Daddy? How come." The child asked confused, which Dan and I explained well to him, and we think it somehow caught the child up.

And now we are here on the veranda of his house, as we watch Daniel play happily with the housemates. "Thank you.” he said suddenly. I just nodded to him in response. "So how are you?" I asked.

"Here, it's good that no vital parts were damaged. So I recovered quickly. Da you know, I really love Leysa," he replied so I looked at him when he mentioned Leysa. I just kept quiet, waiting for him to tell their story.

"Meeting Leysa Frank was the best part of my life. We met unexpectedly and fall in love. We are college sweet hearts back then, she was a freshman while I was in my last year as well. And that time, I did not know the Frank adopted Diana, my puppy love. Diana and! are best of friends when we ares the orphanage because wewere eft in the “ orphanage at the same time, so we grew up with each other. She was adopted in the age of three but that Aids a

lidsrot cause her to leave mie, she ifWays visited me, giving me foods and clothes. She did not forget, so she was my sympathizer and made me feel important, so I loved her in our young age. We also separated when I was adopted at the age of 7. So I just moved on and was happy with the course of our lives. A few years later, my feelings for her did not change, I even promised myself to find her and have a happy life with her, someday. But things changed, when I met Leysa, my point of view on life changed. I just woke up one day, she is already the one I want to be with in old age. She is the one I imagined walking in the aisle of the church towards me. Because she is the kind of woman who will you desired for a lifetime. " Dan looked at me as ne said that, as if he was saying I am lucky to have her.

"But everything suddenly changed, it was our 5th monthsary when Leysa took me and introduced me to her family. And there, I found out that she and Diana are sisters, and that was also the beginning of my cheating years on Leysa. Diana seduced me, she used our past to get me. And I will admit every time something happens to us, I remember again the day I loved her first. So againsand again, I imprinted in my mind that love her, I love her. have alsq reached the point wheres want to. break up with Leysa, I love” her soenuch that I do not wantto fooler anymore. But then, Diana threatened me, that she would send L@ysa a copy of our sexual intercourse behind her back. And I don't want her to feel unworthy and unloved - that's what she hates the most. She could not cope because I eel how much she loved me that time. But Iam very happy to end my relationship with Diana because I really love Leysa very much. And that's the time she focused on you, that's the time she met you and married you. I didn't feel jealous before, but Diana thought I was jealous. But no, I am actually happy for her that she has found someone for her. But then I thought she was going to stop her mania — but we did it again, again and again behind you and Leysa’s back. I was so overwhelmed by fear then because I could no longer afford to lose Leysa to me, that she might leave me once she finds out about her sister and I's sexual relationship. And I was right —she saw us, the night before our wedding day, the day I would have longed for. I know she's there, that's why I talk shits that she'll get hurt." I was surprised by Daniel's statement. So ?, he really loves her ... that much he sacrificed his love for her to keep the woman he loved the most from a man like him. He knew that Leysa would only be hurt in his arms. Content belonas NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

pushed her away from me. So I was not surprised that she would not show up on our wedding day. It hurts, because I love her ... but I prefer not to canfine her to the cage that Diana made. But I also did not expect hecto return with revenge. bx was so orazy back then, thinking what ifShe will get hurt again ky whatshe was doing. I wanted to warn her from the start, I wanted to réet her and talk to her,.but I did not have the courage. And as what I dreaded to happen just happened, 6 years ago. And then again she's hurt. You are stupid and an asshole. I hope you were able to defend and choose her that time. But you are more stupid than I am. So I hope now, you gotta choose her, I know she really loves you since then and do you know... ah nothing,’ Daniel's long litany. But I know he still wants to tell me something.

"What is it?" I asked, urging him to continue what he is about to say. But he just shook his head

"Find it out for yourself. You are rich, but you do not use it to know the things you should know. I pity you, Frederik Wilford. You do not know how to use your money; you will not be able to take that to the next life if you'll not use it." He jokingly answered. Damn it.

What else should I know?

Fine. I will surely find it out, on my own. But I was happy and I found out his side in this story. He is not that bad at all. He just sacrificed his own happiness for the woman he loves the most.

I said goodbye to Dan and Daniel, I know he will be a good father to him. But before I could get out of the veranda, he said something, a warning

"Beware of Diana. She is a total psychotic. She is the one who did this to me. She is the one responsible for my accident. So please, keep THEM with you as much as possible, Fred."
