The room was dimly lit when Pedro stirred awake, the weight of exhaustion pressing down on him. As his vision cleared, he realized he was in the medical room of his mansion–a facility built specifically for emergencies like this. His head throbbed, his muscles ached, and the bandages on his hand served as a painful reminder of his earlier outburst. 

An IV tube was connected to one arm, slowly administering fluids, while the other hand rested heavily on the bed, wrapped in clean, tight bandages. Groaning softly, he leaned back against the headboard, wincing at the pounding pain in his head. 

“Here, drink some water,” Uncle Noel said gently, stepping forward and holding out a glass. He helped Pedro take a few careful sips, his voice lined with concern. “How are you feeling now?” 

“Terrible,” Pedro muttered, his voice rough. He glanced at the clock on the wall and frowned. The realization of how much time had passed jolted him. Pushing aside the duvet covering him, he tried to get out of bed. 

But before he could rise, a firm hand pushed him back down. 

“Don’t even think about it, Pedro, Uncle Noel said sternly. His usual mild demeanor was gone, replaced by an unyielding tone. “You’re not leaving this bed.” 

“Uncle Noel, I- Pedro began to argue, his frustration bubbling up, but Uncle Noel cut him off sharply. 

“No!” Uncle Noel’s voice rose, startling him. “Every other time, I’ve let you do what you want, but not this time. You’re staying in that bed, even if it’s to stop you from chasing after Ethan to kill him!“ 

The mention of Ethan reignited Pedro’s fury. His eyes blazed with anger as he retorted, “Don’t forget your -place, Uncle Noel. Are you defending Ethan now? You want me to let him off after what he’s done? He married my Lily–my queen! What do you expect me to do? Sit here and celebrate their marriage?” 

Uncle Noel didn’t flinch. Instead, he leaned closer, his voice laced with frustration. “Fine! Go ahead. Kill Ethan. Drag Lily here against her will. Force her to be with you if that’s what you want. But do you really think that will make her love you? This behavior will only make her hate you.” 

Pedro froze, his anger momentarily replaced by shock. Uncle Noel’s words hit harder than he expected. 

Uncle Noel continued, his voice softening but still firm. Listen to me, Pedro. I’m just a housekeeper, I know that. But I’ve watched you grow up, and I know how much Lily means to you. Acting out like this won’t bring her closer to you–it’ll only drive her away. But who am I to say anything, right? Do whatever you want. I’ll step aside. I’m sorry, Mr. Pedro. I forgot my place.” 

The regret in Uncle Noel’s voice pierced through Pedro’s defenses. Guilt crept in as he realized how harshly he had spoken. His shoulders slumped, and he avoided Uncle Noel’s gaze, 

“Uncle Noel..” he said softly, his voice tinged with remorse. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to yell at you or say those things. I’m just He paused, exhaling shakily. “I’m really sorry. Please forgive me.” 

Uncle Noel sighed deeply and sat beside Pedro on the bed. His tone was gentler now but still firm. I understand, Pedro. You’re angry and hurt, but you need to control that anger. It’s not good for you, and it’s not going to solve anything.” 

Pedro nodded slowly, looking more like a chastised child than the fiery man who had nearly torn apart his house just hours earlier. “Uncle Noel, what should I do? Lily is married to Ethan. He took her from me. S mine Uncle Noel She belongs in me 

She’s

Uncle Noel’s gaze sharpened. Pedro, listen carefully. Is Lily some kind of object or property that you can 

own? 

“No! Of course not Pedro quickly shook his head. “She’s not an object or property. She’s my future queen” 

“Then stop saying, ‘She’s mine, she’s mine, like you can claim her, Uncle Nocl scolded, his voice sterni. “I know you care deeply for her. I know you’re possessive because you love her. But if you keep acting like this. you’ll only push her away You’ll make her despise you” 

Pedro opened his mouth to argue but closed it again, realizing Uncle Noel was right. The truth stung, but he couldn’t deny it. If he truly wanted Lily in his life, he needed to change his approach. 

Pedro sat quietly, nodding as Unele Noel’s words sank in. He was beginning to grasp the wisdom behind the advice. If this were about anything else, he wouldn’t care as much. But this was about her. His queen. The one person he couldn’t bear to hurt. Acting impulsively might drive her away forever, and that was something he could never allow, 

Taking a deep breath, he asked, “Then what should I do, Uncle Noel?” 

“First,” Uncle Noel began, “don’t harm Ethan-” 

Before he could finish, Pedro interrupted, his voice rising in anger. “No! Why do you keep telling me not to hurt him? I’ll kill him, Uncle Noel! He deserves it!” 

Uncle Noel sighed heavily but didn’t back down. “Who said I don’t want you to hurt him? I’m just telling you not to hurt him yet. Think about it–he’s Lily’s husband. If you attack him now, and she finds out, won’t that make her despise you?” 

Pedro paused, considering the logic in Uncle Noel’s words. He let out a reluctant sigh. “You’re right. If she hates me because of him, it’ll ruin everything. Fine. I won’t hurt him for now. But I’ll make her hate Ethan first. Then, once she turns against him, I’ll deal with him.” 

Uncle Noel smiled faintly. “That’s a step in the right direction. Second, you need to find a way to get closer to Lily–quietly and carefully. Become someone she can rely on, a trusted friend. Be the kind of person every woman needs in her life, a supportive best friend.” 

Pedro’s expression softened as he considered the idea. Slowly, a small, determined smile crept onto his face. “I can do that,” he said, his mind already racing with plans to win her trust, 

“And the third–and most important thing.” Uncle Noel continued, handing Pedro a file, “is to help her with her revenge.” 

“Revenge?” Pedro raised an eyebrow as he took the file, recognizing it as the same one he had read earlier. containing all of Lily’s information. 

“Yes. After you lost control earlier, I went through the entire file,” Uncle Noel explained. “You already know how the Miller Family mistreated her, treating her like a servant instead of a member of their family. She’s planning to take revenge on them, and you should help her with that. Be the one who supports her every step of the way. Also, confront that scumbag Morgan and get the truth about her real family.

Pedro nodded absently, flipping through the file again. The more he read, the angrier he became, but he suppressed his rage. Uncle Noel was right–this wasn’t the time to lash out. After a brief silence, he glanced up and asked hesitantly, “Uncle Noel, do you think she’ll hate me?”
