His warm hug made me shiver for a few minutes before I realized that it is too early for this act in accord with my plan.I made a few steps away from him before turning my phase towards him and gave him a face with a serious look which is totally evident."What are you doing?" I asked him while looking at him directly in the eyes.He stared at me intently and looked away after a few seconds before lowering his head which is now facing the floor."I'm sorry, Avery. Uhm- I think I-I just feel guilty about what I did to you that makes me do that when I got a chance to have you by myself right now", he utterly answer while placing his left hand in the back of his head and touched his hair."Should I go out for a while so that you can get dressed before continuing my work, sir"; I told him while picking the vacuum to continue my disrupted work."There's no need for you to do this right now, Avery. I can handle this on my

"Avery, you are the one assigned to tidy up room number one to three starting tomorrow. The one who was previously assigned to it was on leave for a week. So, it will be your task to handle them. Are you following what I said, young lady?", Miss Portia asked while I'm scribbling my phone.It was around 10 in the evening, the time where I can start to use my phone already. Miss Portia is time oriented and very particular on how we spend the time during work so I need to follow her with the time management."I got that, Miss Portia"; I answered her while my attention is on the screen, trying to search about the Delatorre twins. I am checking all the platforms on social media with the main purpose of familiarizing these people.After checking on them, it seems that they are also protecting themselves since I can't see any pictures or even a bit of information of their very existence. I must say that they are mysterious then. I have to find out everythin

"Come here then", she said then offered a hug which I accepted.I hugged her tightly while my tears are still streaming down my cheeks. For a moment, it seems that I felt comfortable with her even after what I’ve been through in this house."Just let it out for now", she calmly told me and pat my head.I just cried until I haven't noticed that I fall into a deep sleep on her shoulders. When I woke up, I saw Miss Portia placing a tray of food on the bedside table."Miss Portia, I'm sorry if I hadn't helped you with some of the house works today. I fall asleep unintended. Don’t worry, I’ll make it up to you” I explained with the puffy eyes I got from crying."Don't worry about it, Avery. I can handle it and you need to rest. Here, take this food before going back to sleep. And Devin is looking for you but I told him that you're sick and badly need to rest. Just talk to him whenever you feel alright alre

"I apologize for such mischief, sir. I do promise that it won't happen again. I'm so sorry", I just ran away from him towards the kitchen after uttering those words.My hatred is arising to him. Aside from being a pervert and womanizer, he is also an arrogant, insensitive, and heartless creature. Our maids had also made some mistakes but we never treated them like how he did to me."What happened to the food, Avery? Oh! Did you mess it up again? Oh, good lord!", Miss Portia exclaimed upon seeing the food scattered in the tray."I'm sorry, Miss Portia. I accidentally bumped into someone while placing the food on the table. I think he is one of the bosses that we have here", I told her in a low voice.She raised her left brow and stared at me for a few seconds before saying something."He? Is it Devin or Duke?" I'm confused about the question she threw at me. Well, Duke could be Devin's father or his brother, or maybe his cousin."What do Duke

"Dad, what are you talking about?” I exclaimed after hearing his proposition to me."I'm talking about the brighter future that you deserve, Aviana. Being my heiress is not a guarantee of having a happy life in the end. I just want the best for you", he said while looking at me lovingly.I gave him a hug.Dad never failed to show the best that he can in raising me even he encountered a lot of hard times doing that. Well, what can you expect? Being a billionaire's only child is never easy. Kidnap for ransom is the most common threat in my life that I had experienced and the reason that leads to traumatic experiences I least wanted.“But Dad, you said that you want me to be happy. Isn't it absurd for you to decide whom I'm going to marry?” I asked him in a low tone of voice."Why? Don't you like Devin?” he teasingly asked me back.I just lowered my head and he raised it back with my chin. His smile is priceless.

"Dad, I'll be there in a sec", I told him over the phone while rushing down the stairway."Hurry up, Aviana. We don't own the time here. I'll be introducing you to very important persons. I'll be expecting you in 5 minutes", he said with authority."Got it, dad. See ya!", I exclaimed before hanging up. "We should reach the place in 5 minutes", I ordered the chauffeur.I'm still applying my make up when the car stops in the event. I'm always organized and ready not until tonight. My father just informed me about this party 30 minutes ago and I haven't even chosen a suitable dress to wear.I just remember him saying that it is a masquerade party so aside from wearing a sexy backless red flowing dress, I ended up bringing a vintage mask which is my mom's personal artwork. Talking about my mom, she passed away 5 years ago due to a car collision and that was the biggest downfall I ever had.I saw dad talking with a woman in her mid-50'

Eksaktong tumunog ang phone ko nang makarating ako sa parking lot ng bahay. It’s been a busy and long day for me since nagrehearse kami buong araw kasama ang kapwa ko models sa agency for an upcoming event.“Hi. Yeah. Kakarating ko lang sa bahay? Why? Is there something wrong?” tanong ko kay Raine na nasa kabilang linya.“I invited the girls for a night out later at 8. And you still have four hours to rest, dear. I’ll be expecting your presence and I’ll come and get you anyway if you won’t come. I’ll send you the address. Ciao!” pagmamadaling sabi nito sa kabilang linya na halatang excited bago tinapos ang tawag.I just shook my head after placing my phone in my handbag. Ang hirap talagang humindi sa katulad ni Raine.“Miguel, naririnig mo ba ang sarili mo? He do have a connection with us. Paano kung tayo naman ang targetin nang mamamatay tao na iyon? Aren’t you scared losing your life?&rdq

“Mario, maaari mo bang bagalan ang pagmamaneho? Para kang hinahabol ng aso diyan ah, di naman ako nagmamadali,” saad ni Arthur sa driver niya habang tinatahak nila ang daan papunta sa ospital kung saan naka confine ang kaibigan niyang si Miguel na naaksidente kamakailan lamang.“Sir, mukhang may sumusunod po sa atin eh. Kanina pa po sa kabilang bayan bumubuntot ang sasakyang iyan. Kinakabahan po ako, sir.” Bakas sa mukha nito ang pag aalala habang kausap ang amo.“Wala naman akong kaaway, Mario. Imposibleng may magtatangkang kitilin ang aking buhay.” Napuno pa rin ng takot si Arthur matapos sabihin ang mga katagang iyon kay Mario. Alam niya sa kanyang sarili na isang malaking pagkakamali ang kanyang nagawa ilang taon na ang nakakaraan pero imposibleng manganib ang kanyang buhay dahil doon.Sinusundan pa rin sila ng pulang SUV nang mapadako ang kanilang tingin sa side mirror ng kotse. Hindi nila maaninag kung sino ang nagmamane

“I really don’t like her from the start. Kahit nung bata pa sya and you know my reason, Miguel.” I can feel the hatred in her tone.I’m overhearing their conversation since nasa kabilang kwarto lang ako for God’s sake.“What happened in the past is a bare memory na, Francine. I can’t pull the time back and correct what I’ve done before. Can we just forget it? Parang awa mo na, huwag na nating ungkatin pa ang nangyari noon. You’ll just suffer at sasaktan mo lang ang sarili mo kung patuloy mo pa ring babalikan iyon”, mahinang sagot ni Uncle.“What you did with that woman is horrible! How dare you ask me to forget your betrayal?” matapang na sambit ng kanyang asawa.I’m trying to guess who they are referring to but I can’t think of anyone na naging kabit ni Uncle. He was a good man after all. I even never saw him laid his eyes to any woman with affection, except for a c

"No! You can't do anything without my approval. Hindi ko mapapayagang gawin mo ang mga pinaplano kong mga hakbang sa pamamagitan ng dahas", I can sense the tense sa pagitan ni daddy at ng kausap niya sa telepono bago ito ibinaba at ibinalik ang pokus sa pagmamaneho."Mahal, maaari bang huminahon ka muna? You're driving for Pete's sake! And we have Lucy here with us. Wag mong iparinig sa anak mo kung gaano kagulo ang pulitika", the calmness of my mom's voice was still there kahit na alam kong nagpapanic na siya.“Pasensya kana, mahal. Nakakainit lang talaga ng ulo ang mga kapartido ko sa paparating na eleksyon. They are trying to gain victory in just a snap of their finger. At hindi ako papayag na may mga inosenteng madamay sa plano nila”, dagdag nang aking ama.Hindi man maintindihan ng musmos kong isip ang pinag uusapan nila ay alam kong may kaaway si daddy.Madilim na ang langit nang sumilip ako sa bintana ng sasakyan. Lulan kami ng bagong b
