DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW

"Ladies and gentlemen of the press, on behalf of DG Limited, I, CEO Daniel Gomez, would like to extend our sincerest apologies to all those affected by the tragic shooting that occurred during our anniversary celebration. While words cannot adequately comfort those who lost loved ones, I humbly ask that you find it in your hearts to forgive us."

I addressed the crowd of reporters, my voice somber amidst the clicking cameras and live press conference chaos.

"What was meant to be a joyous occasion turned into a tragic event. We, as a company, are grieving, especially for the loss of our dear business partner and friend, Mr. Anthony Huang. Words cannot express our remorse for failing to protect our guests."

I paused, taking a deep breath before continuing.

"As an act of remorse, we would like to offer a peace offering to the families who lost loved ones in the shooting. Each family will receive a substantial compensation package, not as a means to silence them, bu

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW"No way in hell am I becoming your fake husband. Get out of my office!" I thundered, rising to my feet and pointing towards the door.Monica pleaded, "Please, you have to help me. I know it sounds weird, and like I'm trying to trap you, but—"I cut her off, my anger boiling over. "That's exactly what you're trying to do - trap me into helping you get Anthony's will, and then you'll never leave me alone. You think I don't know your games, Monica? You're obsessed with me, and you'll stop at nothing to get me."Monica's voice cracked as she begged, "Okay, how about we make an agreement?"I stood firm, my tone unyielding. "No way. Leave my office, or I'll call security."Monica's sobs grew louder as she fell to her knees, her voice desperate. "Please, just listen to me! You owe me this much for putting me in rehab. Help me, Daniel. Please!”"I sent you to rehab because you almost killed me, despite claiming to love me. You deserved to be there, don't twist it into a

    MONICA'S POINT OF VIEW "Where are the paid actors?" I asked, my gaze shifting to Anthony's lawyer, Mr. Quinn, as we walked into the Huangs' mansion."They're inside," he replied, gesturing for me to follow him. We entered the living room, where the actors who would pretend to be Anthony's family waited.Two days have passed since my meeting with Daniel, and it is time to put my plan into action. Yes, I lied to him, but I also told him the truth - partially. Anthony was indeed gay, and we had an arrangement that allowed him to date his lover while I pursued Daniel. However, when Anthony started falling for Daniel, I knew I had to act, to make him understand that the only one who can love Daniel is me. I had his lover kidnapped and sent away to an unknown country, planning to do the same to Anthony, when I noticed his feelings for Daniel kept increasing.But then, the shooting at the anniversary party changed everything. I don't know who was behind it, but I am grateful for their acti

    DARLA'S POINT OF VIEWA week had passed since my hospital discharge, but the doctor's words still lingered in my mind, leaving me stunned and grappling with a shocking truth.As I regained consciousness, I asked the doctor, "What happened to me?""You were given Metronidazole, an antibiotic unsuitable for pregnant women under twenty weeks. Prolonged use could have led to miscarriage or fetal growth restriction. Luckily, we caught it in time and provided treatment. But how did you obtain these drugs?" the doctor explained.Horror etched on my face as I processed the information. My eyes widened, and my lips parted in shock. The truth dawned on me, and I revealed, "The nurse gave them to me."The doctor's curiosity was piqued. "What nurse?"I shook my head. "I don't know her name or face, but she's been coming in for four days, giving me injections. She claimed they were supplements you prescribed. I always wondered why I needed them, as my body didn't react well to them."The doctor's

  • A Lifetime With Her    The Kiss

    SEBASTIAN'S POINT OF VIEWMy eyes fluttered open to the muffled sound of voices speaking before me. A groan escaped my lips as I struggled to sit upright, the sound of a monitor beeping beside me. My breathing was shallow, and the bright white light overhead was harsh on my eyes until I adjusted to it. The temperature in the room was comfortable, but I knew I was in a hospital. The smell of antiseptic wafted through my nose like a gentle breeze.As my eyes scanned the room, I saw the doctor and Darla discussing something in front of me. Darla turned to look at me, her face etched with concern. "Oh, thank goodness, you're alive," she sighed in relief, moving closer to me and clasping my hand gently.I tried to speak, but my voice was hoarse from disuse. "What happened?" I croaked.Darla's eyes shone with sincerity as she explained, "Back at the café, I gave you my drink because you were coughing. Then, you started reacting strangely - coughing blood and convulsing. I immediately called

    MONICA'S POINT OF VIEW Daniel and I sat at the dining table, having breakfast, when he spoke up, his tone firm but polite. "Monica, I want you to leave my house before I return from work today."My utensils clattered to the plate as I froze, shock etched on my face. I should have known the incident at the Huang family house wouldn't keep him at bay for long."What? What do you mean? I'm not even fully healed," I asked, feeling flustered and trying to process his sudden demand."If you want, I can admit you to a hospital ward, but you can't stay in my house any longer," Daniel replied, his expression unyielding.I couldn't help but ask, "Why?"Daniel's gaze locked onto mine. "What do you mean why? I helped you get what you wanted, so it's over now. You have to leave. If you stay any longer, you'll never leave."I pleaded, "I promise I will leave. Just let me heal first."Daniel retorted, "You can heal in a hospital or your own home. Why do you have to do it here?"I explained, despera

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW After my tense conversation with Monica, I hastily departed for the office, already running behind schedule for a crucial board meeting. En route, my mind kept drifting back to our exchange, particularly her parting words, which continued to echo in my thoughts. I knew I had to find a way to make her leave, no matter what it takes, because once she settles in, she will never leave.Upon arriving at the company, I swiftly made my way to the office, my focus fixed on the task at hand. As I entered the meeting room, one of the board members greeted me with a curt remark, "You're late to the meeting, CEO." his tone laced with disapproval.I chose to ignore his tone and took my seat at the helm, my authority unwavering, my expression firm. "I apologize for the delay, but I was caught up in pressing matters. Shall we proceed?" I stated, my words brooking no debate. I nodded at Florence, who was leading the briefing, to continue."Moving on to the shooting incident,"

Seething with rage, I couldn't think straight. I have to find a way to stay.As I packed, I heard a knock on the door. I opened it to find Amaya standing there, her smile sweet but insincere. I gestured for her to enter, closing the door behind her."What brings you here?" I asked, my tone cautious.Amaya's smile widened. "Monica, my dear Monica. Stop acting like we're strangers. We used to get along when you were friends with Daniel, remember?"I knew her as much as she knew me. I could tell she was lying even with my eyes closed.I raised an eyebrow, skeptical. "Yeah, we used to be friends, but then your brother sent me to rehab and disowned you. I don't think I should be getting close to you if I want to stay on his good side."Amaya laughed maliciously "Good side? You tried to kill him, and now you're

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW When James and I arrived at the hospital, I was directed to the ICU, where Monica was being treated. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest as I entered the room.Monica lay in the bed, her face pale and bruised. I could see the machines beeping around her, monitoring her vital signs.I approached her bedside, feeling a mix of emotions: guilt, worry, and fear. I took her hand in mine, feeling a surge of relief when she squeezed it weakly."Monica, I'm here," I whispered, trying to hold back tears. "I'm so sorry I didn't believe you. I should have protected you."Her eyes flickered open, and she looked up at me with a weak smile. "You're here," she whispered back. "That's all that matters."I felt a lump form in my throat as I looked at her, feeling a deep sense of regret and responsibility. I vowed to myself that I would do everything in my power to keep her safe from now on."What happened?" I asked softly, my voice filled with concern.Monica's voice trem

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW As soon as I dropped Monica off at home, I headed out to my car, despite the late hour. I called James as I walked, and he answered on the first ring."Hey, are you there?" I asked."We've got his location, and we're waiting outside his house," James replied. "Mister Brandford and I are here, and I've also got the police force ready to take him down. Brandford dug up some dirt on him, and it turns out Malik wasn't mentally unstable at all. He lied to get into rehab and lay low for the crimes he committed."I stopped dead in my tracks. "What kind of crimes did he commit?""Human trafficking," James revealed. "The FBI raided their operation once and caught most of them, but Malik escaped by pretending to be mentally unstable. The court believed him because he was a victim of abuse. With what we know now, he's going away for life."I let out a frustrated expletive. "Alright, I'll be there soon. Make sure he doesn't escape."I quickly got into my car and started th

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW When we arrived, the staff greeted us warmly, and we were led to a private room.The room was privately reserved as I had told Monica. The place belonged to James' friend, so it would be easy to get our plan done.As we sat down, Monica couldn't help but notice the champagne chilling in the bucket. "You're really going all out, aren't you?" she said, raising an eyebrow.I smiled, pouring her a glass. "I want to make tonight special."We toasted and sipped our champagne, the conversation flowing easily. Monica laughed and smiled, her guard dropping with each passing minute.The evening wore on, and we laughed and talked like we used to. I made sure to keep the champagne flowing, and Monica's inhibitions began to fade.As the main course arrived, I reached across the table and took her hand. "I'm really glad we're doing this, Monica. I feel like we're reconnecting."Monica's eyes sparkled, and she squeezed my hand. "Me too, Daniel. Me too."I could smell the cham

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW "James, I can't keep pretending to be in love with Monica anymore. I need her out of my house soon," I lamented to James, who sat across from me in my office."I know, but it's only for a little while longer. The blackmail has been working perfectly, and I think she's going to fall for it," James consoled me.Ever since we put our blackmail plan into action, Monica had been on edge, always looking over her shoulder, scared that someone was lurking in the shadows. One touch and she would jolt in shock. She has become secretive, always hiding, but amidst all that, I have managed to gain her trust, making her think I was the good guy. She doesn't suspect a thing, and even if she did, there is no evidence on my devices."Monica is getting more clingy and tight-lipped. This whole love thing isn't working. We need another approach," I blurted out."I've called Mister Brandford. He'll be here soon, and then we can devise another plan," James explained."He better be h

    DARLA'S POINT OF VIEW As soon as it was morning, and at an appropriate time, I dialed the phone number on the card and called Miss Vanessa Chen. I was nervous, pacing back and forth. Would she even answer? Would she still remember me? It has been a long time since she gave me her card, and I never called her. Would there even be a vacant position available anymore?After the third ring with no reply, my hope began to dwindle. I should have known this was pointless. But I didn't want to give up so soon, so I tried calling her again for the fourth time. And then, it connected."Yes, this is Vanessa Chen from DG AdVibe Bali. How may we be of service to you?" Vanessa said in a professional tone."Hi, Miss Vanessa, this is... um... Darla. The girl you met at a café some time ago. You said my voice was unique and gave me your card to consider a job. Do you still remember?" I asked nervously."Of course, how could I forget you? You were on the news recently," Miss Vanessa said with a hint o

It had been three long weeks since Sebastian's arrest, and I had been waiting for this moment, for what felt like an eternity."Sebastian Smith, you have been found guilty of Attempted Murder of an Unborn Child, Attempted Murder in the First Degree, and Reckless Endangerment in the First Degree," Judge Thompson began. "The severity of your crimes is unparalleled, and the court has taken into consideration the harm you caused to Darla Matthew and her unborn child."I felt a lump form in my throat as the judge continued. "For the charge of Attempted Murder of an Unborn Child, I hereby sentence you to twenty-five years to life in prison. For the charge of Attempted Murder in the First Degree, I sentence you to thirty years to life in prison, to be served consecutively with the first sentence. And for the charge of Reckless Endangerment in the First Degree, I se

    DARLA'S POINT OF VIEW Cecelia, Myra, and I waited a week before meeting up, careful not to arouse suspicion. During that time, I scoured the internet for information about the shooting incident at Daniel's company. What I found broke my heart and left me conflicted. Despite my hatred for Daniel, reading about his company's downfall tore me apart. Maybe I still loved him, even after he tried to kill me.A week later, we met at the potato farm where Grandma Amelia and my mother worked. Amelia brought her uncle, the police chief, as promised. As we surveyed the vast crop land, I handed him the evidence I had gathered on Sebastian. "Will this be enough to put him in prison?" I asked.The police chief took the documents and said, "I'll need to review these and do some additional research before we can make an arrest.""How long will that take?" I asked, concern etched in my voice."With the witness records, hospital statements, and concrete proof you've provided, it should only take me th

My mother was released from custody without explanation, and the Hillary incident was dropped as if it never happened. My doubts about Sebastian's involvement grew exponentially.Meanwhile, Sebastian's harassment intensified. He progressed from pushing me to orchestrating more sinister "accidents": slippery floors, oncoming vehicles, and even stalking me. The final straw was when he appeared at my house dressed in a horror costume, holding a knife. But I refused to be intimidated.Determined to expose the truth, I collaborated with a hospital doctor to uncover the identity of the woman Sebastian had paid to induce my miscarriage. With this new information, I reached out to Myra, and arranged a secret meeting.I chose a discreet café, ensuring Sebastian wouldn't follow me.

  • A Lifetime With Her    Back In Rehab

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEW "How did you know it was Malik who murdered Troy?" James asked, his curiosity piqued.I recalled the chilling voicemail. "I recognized his voice in the background, speaking in an Arabic tone right before the shot was fired. I can't forget the distinctive sound of his accent."James raised an eyebrow. "And that makes him the murderer?"I connected the dots. "Both Monica and Malik escaped from rehab. I think she might have hired him to do her a favor, like killing Troy. Did the email give any further information?"“Yes, there are a lot of files. Let me just download them.” James replied.After a few minutes, his expression turned horrified. "You may be right, Daniel. Malik and Monica tortured a fellow inmate to death, making it look like a suicide. They were caught trying to delete the evidence and fled. They're currently wanted."I felt a chill run down my spine. "God, who is Monica? How could they have tortured someone to death?"James' eyes locked onto mine, h

    DANIEL'S POINT OF VIEWJames and I departed from the Huangs' residence as soon as we obtained the desired information. I had previously told Monica that I would be spending my time in the office, and she didn't suspect otherwise, unaware that I had arranged for a team to escort the Huangs to a secure location.Upon our return, James and I swiftly began searching for Anthony's boyfriend's family. Within a few hours, we successfully located their address and headed there. Once we arrived, we got straight to the point."We're looking for the truth," I said firmly. "We want to know what happened to your son, Mrs. Miller."Mrs. Miller, the mother of Patrick Miller, Anthony's deceased boyfriend, broke down in tears. "That brutal woman killed my son," she sobbed, overcome with grief.I handed her a box of tissues, and James and I exchanged a somber glance. We knew that uncovering the truth wouldn't be easy, but we were determined to see justice served."Monica?" I asked, and she nodded in re
