Chapter: CHAPTER 23: KIDNAPPED?The news about Gwendolyn and Evander traveled fast it even reached their parent's radar.Gwendolyn didn't go home nor informed his brother about her arrival. In the meantime, she's staying at Evander's place until she finds a place to rent."You know you can just stay here, I'm your boyfriend I can provide you with anything. In fact, you wouldn't need to work if you live with me. I'll take care of everything; money isn't a problem." Evander stated as he folds his towel after he finished showering.Gwen chuckled and shook her head," You know we can't do that. I'll handle myself; you don't need to do any of what you said for now. I want to stand on my own two feet." she replied democratically.Evander just shrugged and told her that he'll go with whatever she have in mind, "But if you do need any help, then I should be the first one who should know, okay? I wanna help." He said and smiled gently at her before giving her a kiss on the forehead.That day ended and Gwen woke up without see

Chapter: CHAPTER 22: THE BEGINNING'Did I dial the right number?' Gwen thought and checked her phone once again but it clearly says RED there."Habibi? Zosia? You still there?"Then why is it Evander she's hearing?"Evander?""Yeah? You need something Habibi?""No wait— I'm calling Red's number right? Why are you answering the phone?" Gwen heard him cuss from the other line.And that's when her suspicion started. It all made sense but she was with Evander that day when she called Red and he wasn't holding or in a call with someone that time, so why?" Are you mad? "" Wait, so it's true?"Evander sighed and answered yes. "I didn't want to lie to you. It's just that— I know you wouldn't talk to me if I approached you that fast just after you confessed that Saturday night.""So, you pretended to be Red?""Yes, I'm sorry."Gwendolyn could clearly imagine Evander's face right now. I'm sure he didn't really mean to lie but it's still not right for him to do that. He still lied."Do you still have things you're keeping from

Chapter: CHAPTER 21: FINALLYGwen didn't slept a wink that night. All she could think about is to what Evander meant about the gift he gave her.The next morning, since she couldn't get herself to sleep she went out of her room and found Evander seated on a single chair with a mug of coffee on his right hand and reading the morning paper on the other."Good morning, Coffee?" he asked when he noticed her presence.She waved her hands signaling him No. She ignored Evander and went straight to the kitchen to whip herself breakfast before they get off the island.She still have work waiting for her back on the front desk, and the thing that happened last night- it was all a mistake. She was just carried away by the current of events.Gwen flinched when she felt a hand snake on her waist."That's one deep sigh. A penny of your thoughts?" he said as he snuggled behind her.But Gwen didn't respond, instead he pushed his hand away and took a few steps back.Evander's expression changed in a split second. His brow furrowe

Chapter: CHAPTER 20: WITH YOU(Now, would you like to hear the agenda I planned for you guys?)That was what he said, but the call just suddenly got cut off for some reason. What should we do now?"Since it's still quite early, would you like to have breakfast first?" My brow instantly arched when I heard him say that.Why does he care?"Thanks, but no thanks. My SECRET ADMIRER had already given me breakfast. Isn’t he sweet?" I said, quite mocking him, but instead of seeing an irritated expression, he looked delighted."So, you think he's sweet, huh?" he said, hiding his smile, which I could still see.Wait— is he blushing?! Why the hell?!"Anyway, that thing shouldn't have been enough. I'm taking you to breakfast, whether you like it or not. Or do you want me to eat you instead?"I felt blood rushing to my cheeks, so I didn't have a choice but to walk out. But because we were tied up together, I'm basically pulling him.I dragged him to one of the resort's restaurants. I saw Felicity and called her." Hey— Oh my

Chapter: CHAPTER 19: STUCKSilver and Archer ran at the speed of light when they noticed Gwen was nowhere behind them."I told you to keep your eye on her! What would happen if she found out?""Why are you getting mad at me? If you didn't argue about the flavor, then we wouldn't be running like this."Silver abruptly stopped in his tracks and saw what they were fearing."Fuck, mission failed.""Covers have been blown."They appear to be bickering over something. After a few minutes, Gwen marched off while wearing a furious expression.Before racing in to check on what happened, Silver examined the surroundings to make sure it was safe to proceed."Dude! What happened? Did she find out?""Almost, I made up some lies and told her I know Red. She didn't buy it and walked out."They all blew a sigh of relief. The mission continues."Then what's the plan now? If she knew you were here she'd be on her guard.""And what took you so long? It was so hard containing her in one place!"Let's go back to the part where Evan

Chapter: CHAPTER 18: ALMOSTGwendolyn was staying on a specific island and working at a specific resort, according to information Duke Estian discovered.He therefore traveled a great distance to verify its veracity, but as soon as he and his companions set foot on the island, they were stopped by men dressed in black suits."I'm sorry, sir, but this is a private island. Approval from the owner is a must before setting foot here. So, if you don't want bullets raining in perfect weather like this, I will walk back to where I came from." The guard, who looked like their captain, replied with a very serious face.So severe that his warnings would actually come true if they didn't follow their regulations. He is not the only man who is watching out for them, his butler nudged him and said. They are already surrounded by snipers.They are definitely in a pinch. "Let's head back for now. We'll be back after getting permission." Estian walked back to his yacht and looked at the drifting island.This place is really sus
