I’m Just His Wife

“Re … Remember when we were just a child? Singing … You’re singing to me instead of … Instead of me singing for you for … For you to sleep …” he had a nice smile and seemed may naaalala …

I nodded. That was the happiest moments of our lives.

“Can you … Can you sing … Sing for me a … again? For … For me to sleep …” he bit his lower lip and grinned again.

“No! You can’t sleep, Ate … No!” I shook.

“Please … Please, Andrea … I want to hear you sing before I … I …” she puckered her lips and her tears dripped.

I cried. But … I did what he wanted.

“I have died everyday waiting for you … Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years … I’ll love you for a thousand more …” my throat was shaking and the my voice.

She smiled and slowly closed her eyes but I still continued to sing. He held my hand tightly.

“I love you, Andrea … Sisters … Sisters forever …” and she let go of my hand …

Andrea’s POV

Flashback

Dearest Chrysostom’s

At last, you finally died, Rina! Who would’ve thought that someone evil like you will die? I no longer believe that in the saying, weeds do not die quickly. Tsk tsk tsk.

And to her lovely sister, Rigella Crisostomo-De Leon. Better get ready because we will follow you. By the way, you were the only one left in the Crisostomo family because we have beheaded your worthless Kuya Ryan. It was funny to watch him suffer every time we tortured him. Well, it’s his fault, if he hadn’t intervened he wouldn’t have been imprisoned and died.

Anyway, Rigella, if you still want to live, give our group all the property of the Crisostomos and the property of the worthless Rina. Doing so will save your life.

Find our hide out located on Madrid, Spain and pass all your wealth on our group. That’s all and and my BEST CONDOLENCES! Hahaha!

Without emotion I crumpled the paper they had left next to Ate’s body and threw it in the trash. Even if they kill me, they will not be able to take from me the assets given to me.

I smiled when I remembered what we talked about with Ate’s lawyer earlier …

“All of the properties of Andrea Steinfields will all be given to you including this mansion, and other fifty mansions around the world, the Steinfields Clothing Company here in America and all the company branches, and most of all … her bank accounts worth one hundred billion dollars each … ‘the lawyer said while I’m busy reading my sister’s last will and testament.

So she really passed her wealth and properties on me. I was almost overwhelmed by the amount of his properties and I didn’t expect that to be that many.

“She didn’t leave anything other than that?” I have no emotional question.

“She actually prepared a letter for you, according to her, if something happens on her, I will give it to you …”

I held out my hand. “Give me the letter.”

He immediately handed it to me and I put Ate’s letter in my bag.

“Can you do something for me?” I barely smiled.

“Wha … What was it, Madam?” he asked.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“As you know, Mrs. Atkinson …” I laid my two elbows on the table and folded my hands. I looked at her intently. “My life was in danger right now. So if something bad happens on me, I want you to donate all of the properties and money to charities. Well, I’m not saying that I will die but, in case, please do that for me … ”

Attorney’s eyes widened but he immediately nodded as well. “Okay, Ms. Crisostomo. I’ll do it.”

“Nah-ah.” I wave my index finger. “It’s Ms. Steinfields, attorney. Not Crisostomo, alright?” I smiled.

He frowned and nodded slowly.

I folded my arms and smiled secretly. Rigella Crisostomo was now dead, and the new Andrea Steinfields was born.

After Ate”s funeral I was left in her grave with Seymour. I should be alone now but he insisted on accompanying me because it was dangerous.

I didn’t cry. Even a single tear did not fall from my eyes. Maybe, I”m numb to things things like this.

I have taken care of Kuya Ryan’s remains for Darlyn since she came home from the Philippines but her child was left here so we will take care of her.

I suddenly remembered Ate’s letter for me so I immediately took it from my bag. When I got the envelope containing the letter my chest ached. The envelope was red, my favorite color and I could also smell my favorite scent when I opened it.

I unfolded the white paper from the fold and read what was written there.

Rigella Andrea,

Hello, sis! Maybe if you”re reading this now I”m no longer beside you. I’m sorry, Andrea. I don’t want to leave you but I have to. I know because you can do without me. You were strong and you do not give up even when you were already hurting so much. That’s one of the things I admire about you, sis.

Anyways, I just want to tell you to be happy and don’t let yourself be killed. Give us the justice that we deserve. Go on with what we both started, that’s all I want from you.

Let me tell you a secret, I myself surrendered myself to Dark Alpha. And why, it’s up to you to solve it. Persevere, Rigella Andrea. That will lead you to victory, to bring justice to the lost loved ones.

You will always remember that I love you dearly and I have never regretted sacrificing my life for you. And by the way, you were the one to tell my nephews that I love them very much. Take back Ice, Rigella. No matter what happens, bring your son back to you.

And the Steinfields Clothing Company, take care of it and make it grow more. I know you can do that because you have a passion for your job. Don’t leave the company because I provided blood and sweat for that.

I will not prolong it any longer. I love you again, sis. I never regret helping you because you deserve it. Besides, we’re sisters. Sisters forever, right?

I love you again and again and again, Rigella Andrea. Take care of yourself.

Sincerely yours,

Rina Andrea Steinfields

When I finished reading the letter, I immediately hugged you. That’s when my tears started to flow.

“I love you too, Ate. Sisters forever …” I whispered to myself and looked up at the sky.
