JIA'S POVI stood up when the doctor who was assigned to operate on my father suddenly came out of the operating room.Taking a deep breath to compose himself, the doctor walked towards the waiting area, where I anxiously awaited news.The atmosphere was tense, with a mixture of hope and fear filling the air. I take a deep breath. My eyes fixed on the doctor as he approached.Dr. Williams, a seasoned cardiologist with kind eyes and a reassuring smile, walked towards me. He could sense my anxiety and knew that his words held immense weight. Taking a moment to gather his thoughts, he began speaking in a calm and measured tone."Good evening, Jia," he started. "The surgery went as planned, and I'm pleased to inform you that the operation was successful. We were able to address the blockages in John's coronary arteries and restore blood flow to his heart."It was like a big thorn was pulled out of me when I heard what the doctor said.Doc continued speaking; his tone was very soft, but th

With a calming breath, Jia stepped out of the car, her eyes widening at the sight of Luke Castillo's imposing mansion. After weeks of her father's recovery, she braced herself for the unknown twists her life might take.The butler ushered her into a grand foyer, and with a polite nod, he disappeared, leaving Jia to marvel at the opulence surrounding her. The towering ceilings and lavish decor made her feel like an intruder in a world far removed from her humble beginnings. What could a man of wealth like Luke possibly want with a simple village girl?As she ventured further into the mansion, each step seemed to echo the beating of her heart. The silence was broken only by the soft rustle of her clothes, emphasizing her solitude in this grandeur. The air carried a mix of unfamiliar scents, the fragrance of exotic flowers and polished mahogany, making her senses dance in confusion.Footsteps resonated on the marble stairs, a rhythmic prelude to Luke's descent. He appeared with an enigmat

LUKE'S POV"Any updates?" I asked my cousin over the phone. I checked daily, hoping for news about Jia."I'm sorry, coz, but still nothing. Even her father knows nothing." I was starting to lose hope. It's been five years, Jia. I've searched for you, and you haven't told me where you were going. I thought you were different from Amy, but it seems you're just like her, not showing up for the wedding."Come in!" I shouted inside my office when my secretary knocked."The board called for an urgent meeting, sir," she said."Why so sudden?" I asked curiously."I don't know, sir.""The company is slowly falling, Luke. What are we going to do?" I sighed. Yeah, another problem."You know what? I've thought of something. This might be our only hope for success," one of the board members said. "Yana Alvarez, a famous fashion designer in the US, has a renowned company that skyrocketed within a year. She revived the failing company she bought from a man who was losing hope. She saved it, and after

"Love, I'm starting work tomorrow," I announced, raising my voice to ensure he heard me. He was currently swimming in the pool while I prepared his snack.He emerged from the water and approached me, and I handed him a towel. "But didn't you decline that?" he asked, referring to Luke's proposal."Yeah, but I changed my mind. I don't want to stay here doing nothing," I explained. It was my choice after all; no one forced me to make it."If that makes you happy, love, I'll support you," he said, prompting me to hug him in joy."I'm wet, love," he chuckled, causing me to release him, realizing my soaked attire."Well, you're wet too; you might swim as well," he teased, grabbing my hand and pulling me along for a dip.We relished each other's company until we realized it was already 6 p.m.AS MONDAY DAWNED, I rose and prepared for work, finding Rylee cooking breakfast in the kitchen."Good morning, love. Where's Manang?" I inquired.He planted a kiss on my forehead before replying, "Good m
