EXTRA CHAPTER 1Lyzza ran towards Vesarius Airlines because she was already late for her first flight that morning. Emer and his companion, a guy named Paul with no eyebrows, were running after her."Ma'am, please don't run," Emer said like a worried father because of her stubbornness.Well, she couldn’t deny that she was really stubborn most of the time."I’m good. Stay there. Bye!" Lyzza shouted and managed to wave at them while pulling her suitcase. "Tell Gideon I’ll kick her ass when I get back."She chuckled as she left the two bodyguards outside, scratching their heads because they couldn't enter the boarding gate anymore. Ever since she remarried Gideon, she felt like a queen with bodyguards wherever she went.If it wasn't Emer and Paul guarding her, her husband was always trailing her like she was going to run away. Where could she go that he didn't know about? Gideon was really paranoid, even though he knew for himself that she was madly in love with him."Mrs. Vesarius!" Qui
EXTRA CHAPTER 2"Do you know her? She's a senior flight attendant," she chattered as they got into the car."Yeah."She crossed her arms and scowled at him. "She's pretty."Lyzza didn't hear any response from her husband, and instead he started the car engine."So, she's pretty, right?"Gideon glanced at her and raised both eyebrows, annoying her.Unable to resist, she smacked him hard on the arm, but he didn't even flinch."Strawberry." His voice had a threatening tone, but it was still affectionate.Damn! He was teasing her and still being sweet! How could that be possible?"You're annoying! She's your mistress, right?" She accused him and pointed at him.He looked at her while slowing down the car until it came to a complete stop before they even left the Vesarius Airlines compound.She let out a scream when Gideon suddenly grabbed her waist and kissed her passionately."Hmp..." She tried to push him away.His kiss was intense, and she was getting excited again."Ouch!" she complai
EXTRA CHAPTER 3The large front door of the mansion opened, and a familiar man with gray eyes came out."Man." Gideon nodded at him.The two hugged man-to-man before he waved three key cards like those seen in hotels."The house is ready. I already installed a security system throughout the mansion. The roof and walls are bulletproofed just like you like." He then looked at her and Summer too. "Welcome to Northsire Town.""Thanks, Cale. I owe you, man.""Daddy, I won. I won." A young boy ran out of the mansion carrying a tablet.Summer let go of her father's leg and raised an eyebrow when she saw Giovanni. The young boy was also surprised to see Summer, but he quickly rolled his eyes at her little girl.Summer's eyes shone with determination. Giovanni ignored her, and looked back at his father. "Daddy, I won the sniper duty. See, Daddy? I'm better than you."Lyzza laughed softly when she noticed Summer shamelessly peeking at Van's tablet. Her little girl looked like she wanted to gr
Chapter 1 LYZZA awkwardly stepped out of the dressing room after she managed to wear something that Danielle gave her: a micro denim skirt and a crop top that only covered her bust. She would pull her micro skirt down habitually in prayer that it would become longer if she pulled it even more. She could feel the cold beneath her ass as her panties were showing off. She just realized that someone had already slapped her hand, making her come to her senses. “Stop pulling it down!” Danielle hissed at her while chewing gum. “You’re ruining your sexiness!” The woman began to stare at her speculatively from head to toe. Seconds later, a tiny grin suddenly crept up from her round face, still looking at Lyzza’s whole physique. “Holy Mama Mia! What did I tell you? I’m never wrong about my gut. You are really something!” The woman continued to move her around like a top while her satisfaction wasn’t enough. “Perfect! Your face would make a thousand ships sink at this moment, girl! I bet th
Chapter 2 FOUR years later, “Where’s mom?” Lyzza asked her younger brother when she descended from upstairs. She was at their home. “She went to the store. She told me she had to take care of some lists,” he answered her and quickly stood up from the couch. “Are we going to leave now, Lyzza?” he asked her. She nodded as she looked at her cheap wristwatch. She saw that it was almost 7 in the morning. “Yes, Cai,” she answered her 13-year-old brother. She gathered her hair and tied it neatly at the back. After that, she turned to the staircase and noticed that Summer wasn’t around. “Where’s that little twerp?” Caius asked, who was also busy looking in the direction Lyzza was looking at. “I’ll go fetch her,” she said, and climbed back upstairs. She just let her tie her shoelaces as Summer told her that she was already a big girl to do it herself, but up until now, she hadn’t managed to climb down. Lyzza opened the room where she left her earlier. She found her still sitting on the f
Chapter 3 LYZZA’S feet felt sore when she reached their house because of the 4-inch high heels she wore. It was a requirement at her school for them to get used to it when they get to work on the field training in the future. She arrived home past six o’clock in the evening. A Vesarius Airlines interview was coming up next week, and they just had an orientation. The orientation ended at five o’clock, and since it was rush hour for a commuter like her, she got stuck in traffic and got home late. “Mommy!” Summer cheerfully greeted her as soon as she stood beside the rack just behind the door to put her shoes back. She lowered her head and kissed Summer’s cheek. The little girl wrapped her little arms around her neck and kissed her on the cheek. “How’s school, honey?” she asked gently, carrying her in her arms. She put her school bag on her cheap sofa in the living room. Summer showed her stars at the back of her hand, up to her lower arm. “I’ve got eight stars, Mommy! Take a look.
Chapter 4 GIDEON was talking to a middle-aged man. He used to have those long, rough beards, but Lyzza could no longer see it in him now. It was something that she always thought that made the man so manly and appealing that night. But there was no doubt he was still cool in his man-bun. His face was sporting a serious expression. His manly posture announced his dominance and power to everyone inside this place. “Students, this way, please!” Lyzza immediately looked away as she heard the announcement from someone she didn’t even bother to look at. Her female classmates also halted at the jaw-dropping scenery and giggled as they all moved away from the main entrance of the building. “We will divide you into two groups. One of the groups will be interviewed by the CEO himself, and the rest will be interviewed by yours truly, the head of HR,” a woman announced in front of them. The woman was prim and proper. She looked like a strict professor at their university; the kind of old mai
Chapter 5 GIDEON stared blankly at the closed door after Rona—Lyzza went out. His jaw clenched and he almost pulled his hair because of the woman’s actions toward him; the very same woman who has occupied his mind ever since he woke up from a coma four months ago, right after he purchased her that night. He came to that auction because of his friend’s influence, telling him to unwind more often. He was sent by that bastard friend of his, named Alejandro Almeradez. He was one of his best friends since they were in military school. He was on leave at that moment and was processing his divorce papers with his ex-wife. That slut of an ex-wife who wasn’t content in life and had the nerve to find another guy. Gideon used to think she was an angel because they had been in a relationship for one and a half years before they decided to get married. She acted demure in her external actions and through her appearance, but she was wild in bed; the reason why both of them reached two years, addi

EXTRA CHAPTER 1Lyzza ran towards Vesarius Airlines because she was already late for her first flight that morning. Emer and his companion, a guy named Paul with no eyebrows, were running after her."Ma'am, please don't run," Emer said like a worried father because of her stubbornness.Well, she couldn’t deny that she was really stubborn most of the time."I’m good.

EPILOGUEWatching his wife laugh with her friends, Gideon couldn’t help but smile at the scene in front of him. The way Lyzza laughed and teased her friends made his heart go into a summersault."Man, are you even listening?" Alejandro irritably asked him.He turned to look at him and just raised the corner of his lips upon seeing the annoyance on his face."What?""Fuck you!" Alejandro raised his middle finger. "I've been talking here for a while now."Riguel and Spiel, who were beside him, laughed. Annoyed, Alejandro stood up, took off his suit jacket, and threw it at him. Gideon quickly dodged it and threw it back at the asshole. He was annoyed as Alejandro locked his neck in his arm, like when they were still in military school. Riguel and Spiel chuckled as Gideon tried to remove Alejandro’s hand from his neck."Riguel, bud. Hold this bastard's hand. I'll kick his ass. This is my chance."And because Riguel was also a king of mischief, he stood up and followed what Alejandro said.
"Do you not have anything to say?" Gideon asked her as she only continued to stare at him, her eyes widening.She blinked slowly and closed her mouth. She pressed her palms against his chest to raise herself slightly."W-What did you say?" She couldn't believe it. The strong thumping of her heart was like a drum that deafened her.Gideon's face turned red, and despite her confused feelings, she couldn't help but chuckle."Are you blushing?"Her teasing remark made him blush even more, causing his ears and neck to turn red. He looked away from her, but his hand tightened around her waist."You're blushing," he said, trying to ease the tension with her laughter. She held his ears.Gideon almost jumped in surprise, which made her laugh even louder."Strawberry," he warned her.However, his authoritative tone did not deter her. She gasped as he tightened his grip on her waist, and in a blink of an eye, their positions changed. His large body pressed against hers while his hands captured h
Lyzza scratched Gideon's back when she reached her climax countless times that night. She was already exhausted, but Gideon continuously moved and thrust inside of her. Her lips would part every time he went deeper inside her, giving her a pleasure only her husband could provide.The delicious feeling of him inside her made her crazy. It was giving her an incredible sensation that felt like sending her to paradise—and only Gideon had the ability to make her feel that way. He was the only one."F*ck, f*cking delicious," Gideon cursed hoarsely as he moved above her. He thrust faster that she could feel her nails digging into his skin. She felt a familiar sensation in her abdomen and moaned his name as he hit her G-spot."Oh…Gideon," she moaned loudly, and she couldn’t recognize her voice.He hit her g-spot, which made her roll her eyes with so much pleasure. She bit her lower lip firmly when he went deeper inside of her again."You like that? Do you like it? F*ck, I love this so much,"
Lyzza peeked through the window when she heard a commotion downstairs. Someone was shouting at the gate, and the bodyguards were alerted. There was no one in the mansion but her and the servants.Her mother and Caius arrived at the penthouse a few days ago, and their eyes showed a mix of surprise and happiness upon seeing her again. Like Summer, her mother cried and hugged her tightly. She sobbed and kissed her face like a child. Caius, on the other hand, quietly cried when Lyzza hugged him.Afterwards, they went back to Vesarius Mansion. Mommy Gerona nearly fainted when she saw her again, and Carollete almost choked her when her sister-in-law hugged her tightly."Gideon Vesarius, come out! You killed my daughter," the man outside angrily shouted and tried to push through the bodyguards."Ester, who is outside?" she asked the passing butler.Ester approached her and took a peek. "Is that Mariz's father? Yes, that's him.""Mariz's father?" She was taken aback and stared at the man outs
"The report is with me, bud," Alejandro said as he opened the door. "The old woman and the neighbors confirmed that your wife was found by the seaside. She was asleep for a few months in the small hospital on the island. The old woman named Erlinda is a simple high school teacher, it’s understandable that she doesn’t have enough money to put your wife in the big and better hospital."Gideon took the folder that Alejandro handed him and read Lyzza's records in the small infirmary on the island. His suspicions were confirmed. She ended up on that island after falling off a cliff."She's here in Manila with the old woman's son. The name is Senen, and he is one of the representatives of the academic contest... something, I don’t know.""A man?" he asked bitterly. Of all the things Alejandro said, Lyzza's companion's name was the only thing that caught his attention."Yes, he’s currently staying at the hotel. Stop your sh*t ass from being jealous.""I'm not," he countered.Alejandro chuckl
After her CT scan, the doctor immediately read her test result. It was clear, and there were no problems found in her head. As the previous doctor who examined her on the island said, the blow to her head was the reason why she couldn't remember anything. Her memories will come back, and it will help if she's with the people who are a part of her life.Summer didn't leave her side, even when they were eating at an expensive restaurant in the city. The little girl sat on her lap and hugged her tightly. Lyzza, on the other hand, couldn’t help but kiss Summer’s hair, and if Gideon wasn't looking, she might have cried too.She missed Summer so much and wanted to shower her with kisses. But the man who wouldn't stop staring at her might notice.Lyzza thought it was fine; she'll just kiss her baby when Gideon is not around."Mommy, I love you. I miss you so much," Summer said in a sweet voice, kissing her on the cheek.She tried to hold back a big smile and returned the affection subtly. Sh
