ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) THE KISS THAT REVEALED SECRETS
"You've been quiet for a while," Yhasy caught my attention.We were already inside their car, on our way to the hospital.I was still worried about the picture I saw in the room I entered earlier."Ah, nothing, maybe I'm just sleepy," I made an excuse."Is that so? Well, you can sleep. I'll take you and Yhael to Manila. I've already asked someone to go there and book a room near your condo," she said."It's alright, I can't sleep even if I'm feeling drowsy," I replied.I heard her laugh, so I looked at her."You're a mess, Adah," she said, laughing."Sorry. My mind's all over the place," I said, also laughing."By the way, have you informed your parents that you're here in the province?" she reminded me.I bit my lip as I remembered that I haven't called them yet in Manila.I took my cell phone from my bag, but my shoulders dropped when I saw that my phone had shut down."Here, you can use mine to make a call," she offered."I don't have their phone numbers memorized, sorry," I said,
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) THE ARRIVAL OF ZANIEL
I closed my eyes as the cold water flowed down my face and down my body. I ran my fingers through my wet hair as I connected the pieces of information I had learned.First, I discovered that what I thought was Taniel was actually Zaniel, his twin brother. That's why whenever I was with him, he wasn't as caring and sweet as Taniel.Then there was what happened between us earlier.I touched my lips as if his lips were still there. I shook my head at my thoughts."Zaniel, I hope that's our last meet," I said, even though I wasn't talking to anyone.I sighed.What is the true relationship between Yhasy and Yhael? I don't believe they are siblings because of what my eyes witnessed earlier. Zaniel left quickly, so I couldn't ask him about Yhasy and Yhael.But what I couldn't get out of my mind was the picture I saw of Atarah in a room at Yhael's house. Why was there a picture of Atarah with Yhael and Yhasy?I turned off the faucet as I heard three consecutive knocks."Adah, are you here?" E
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) CONFRONTATIONS & COMPASSION
The silence inside my condo is deafening. We are still in the living room, sitting on the long sofa. Taniel is on my left, and Zaniel, Taniel's twin, is on my right. Across from us, Atarah is seated next to Eury, who is also beside Jerwin."I can't take this anymore. My ears hurt from the silence," Eury exclaimed.It's good that you spoke up, Eury, because I feel the same way."So, Z, why are you here in Manila? I thought you didn't want to set foot in this city," Eury asked."Is the whole of Manila yours? Am I forbidden to come here at any time or day?" Zaniel retorted."Did I say that Manila is mine? As far as I remember, the last time we met, you said you would never come back to Manila. We even traveled to the province to pick you up, but we gained nothing because you said you didn't want to come here," Eury expressed her anger."Besides, this isn't the first time I've seen you in Manila since you claimed not to want to come here. I've seen you multiple times at school, and my best
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) A DAY WITH YHAEL
"What do you want to have for dinner?" I asked while looking inside the refrigerator.Luckily, Yhasy was sent to the grocery earlier."Pinakbet," he replied.I turned around and looked at her with an incredulous expression."Why?" he asked."What is that dish?" I asked him.It was the first time I had heard of that dish."It's a vegetable dish with pork or beef," he answered."I don't know how to cook that, and it's my first time hearing about it," I said shyly."I feel weak, and I wish I could cook it myself," he said.I felt sorry for him. I let out a sigh."Teach me how to cook that pinakbet," I said.I saw his face light up when I said that."Okay, the ingredients for pinakbet are onions, garlic, tomatoes, eggplant, okra, bitter gourd, squash, and meat," he said.I scratched my head because there were a lot of ingredients for pinakbet.I opened the refrigerator again and looked for the ingredients he mentioned."Onions, garlic, and tomatoes," I said and placed them on the table."
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) A TASTE OF YHAEL'S FREEDOM
"Please have a seat, I'll prepare everything," he said and pulled a chair for me."I can handle it. You might get tired, and you haven't fully recovered yet. You just woke up," I replied, attempting to stand up, but he stopped me."I'm feeling better after tasting the food," he jokingly said. "So, let me prepare, just wait," he added."Okay, as you say," I said, laughing along.As I watched his scooping the food onto the plates, I couldn't help but wonder. Why would someone attempt to harm someone like her, someone kind and seemingly innocent?"Let's eat, I'm hungry," he said after finishing setting the table.He sat in front of me. I thought he would serve himself rice, but I was surprised when he served rice on my plate first.I looked at his and smiled, feeling a bit awkward returning the smile."Thank you," I said, and I served the dish onto my plate.I hesitated to taste my own cooking, afraid that I wouldn't like it since it was my first time cooking Pinakbet."Why? Try it, your
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) A TROUBLESOME NIGHT
"ADAH TEFHANIE! Where did you go?" Eury angrily confronted me as I entered my condo.I checked my watch, and it was already 11:00 PM. What time did I walk out earlier?"Adah!" she shouted at me.Her scream startled me."I'm not deaf, Eury!" I snapped back at her and went into my room."Where have you been? We've been looking for you for hours, and we couldn't find you! Do you know how worried we were?" she continued as she followed me."Eury, I'm tired. I just want to rest, let's talk about it tomorrow," I said and laid down on my bed."Fine, I'll call them to let them know you're here," she said, grabbing her cell phone.She quickly answered the call."Yes, she's here.I don't know.She said she's tired.Z, where are you going to sleep? It's late.If they won't let you stay at their condo, you can sleep beside me at my condo," she said one after another.I suddenly stood up and grabbed Eury's phone."Zaniel, I have something to tell you. Come to my place," I said and ended the call b

"Taniel," I called when I saw him leaning against my condo door.He greeted, "Good morning.""Good morning," I greeted back."Can we talk?" he asked.I checked my watch, and it was still early for breakfast, especially since we both lived in neighboring condos."Sure," I said and opened my condo door slightly for him to enter.After closing the door, he hugged me immediately."I miss you, Adah," he said.I hugged him back, saying, "I miss you too, Taniel.""Don't do it again, okay?" he asked, and I nodded."Sorry," I apologized as I could clearly see the concern in his eyes."It's okay, just promise me you won't do it again," he said.So, I made a promise gesture with my hand and said, "I promise."I was taken aback when he pressed his lips against my forehead."You two are so sweet," Zaniel commented lazily while leaning against the wall.My eyes widened in surprise when I saw him. Why was he here? I didn't realize I hadn't informed him last night because I was already sleepy.Taniel
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) SHATTERED TRUST
"What happened to your face? Why are you blushing?" Yhael asked as I entered his room through the secret door."It's nothing, just hot. Wooh!" I replied and went out to head to the kitchen.I found the table set and looked at Yhael, seeing Zaniel grinning behind him."I've been awake for a while, so I cooked our breakfast," he said."Why didn't you wait for me? Can you handle it?" I asked."Yes, I can cook now. Look," he proudly showed me what he had cooked."You better get used to Yhael," Zaniel interrupted and sat down."You're not included in the breakfast I cooked, Z," Yhael dismissed him."You're so stingy! There's plenty of food! Will you finish all of that?" he asked."Yes, Adah and I will finish all of it, so go! Leave!" Yhael shooed him away."Adah!" Zaniel complained to me."Let's just include him, Yhael. He might feel left out." I said and sat down."Ouch! Adah again! You're really mean," he jokingly said, acting hurt.Yhael and I laughed at him. Thankfully, the redness in

Ate let my straight hair down. She was busy fixing my eyelids and lightly applying blush on my cheeks."I'll put those earrings on, alright? It'll enhance your beauty," she said.I nodded slowly and didn't complain. I wasn't used to wearing jewelry on my body. I feel uncomfortable with those things. I don't know why.She smiled and then applied pink lipstick to my lips. I parted my mouth and closed my eyes."Finished. Stand up, lady. Let me see the result," she happily said.I grinned and gave her a confident aura. She winked and clapped."You look really beautiful," she exclaimed.I looked at the mirror to see myself. I wore a red sleeveless dress that suited my fair complexion. With a smile, I gently touched my face and couldn't believe what I saw. Only a few things were done by Ate, but why? It seemed like I became more beautiful."Yes, I am beautiful!" I exclaimed and winked.She handed me her black clutch bag."It matches your outfit," she said with a hint of joy.I accepted it.

I slowly got uncomfortable with his presence. "What brought you here?" I sheepishly asked. After he called me, I immediately said goodbye to Benjie and Lavly. Though they seemed puzzled, they allowed me to leave. Actually, Benjie even drove me back to Manila. I'm really thankful to them for trusting me, at least to some extent.He just shrugged off my question. I carefully placed my bag down and approached him. "Where's Pa?" I wryly asked. A tray with snacks was already set on the small, fragile table between us."I'm glad you're here! I just need your company tonight," he muttered. I rested my elbow on the armrest of the sofa and messily ran my fingers through my hair."You need me tonight? And then what am I supposed to do there?" I skeptically asked him. He was wearing tokong-shorts and a fitted white polo shirt, resembling a model from famous magazines."Be my date," he casually replied."Why me? I have a lot to do right now. You're insane," I said through gritted teeth.With his

"You're late." I almost swallowed all my saliva when he started speaking.He pretended to sit on the mahogany chair and it was obvious that he had just arrived. He was wearing a black long-sleeve shirt with a necktie and black slacks. His physique was even more pronounced. He looked at me seriously from head to toe.I raised an eyebrow."Have a seat! Why are you late?" he coughed.I avoided looking at him and quietly sat on an empty chair.I glanced at him again and rolled my eyes. He silently read the menu placed on the table."What do you want?" He glanced at me. I stared intensely back at him. A smirk played on his lips."You disappeared for days! Just when I was about to take a break, you show up." I added irritably.He slightly loosened his necktie."I just wanted you to know that I haven't forgotten about you." His response was cold.I sighed."Can we stop? It's not really my fault, right? You're the one who claimed that I did something wrong to you, right?" I answered sharply.
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) A Journey of Love and Second Chances
The next morning when I opened my eyes, I immediately felt a headache. I sat on the edge of the bed and massaged my temples.I didn't know what time I fell asleep last night. When I woke up, I already felt the headache.I redirected my attention to something else to ease the pain a bit.Earlier, after we ate, Manang gave me a paracetamol. I took it and immediately drank it.Afterwards, I took a walk by the beach to at least sweat a little and alleviate the burden I was feeling.I found out from Shara that Xahel left early for Manila. She said he had a lot of paperwork to take care of and projects scheduled for this month until the fourth month.I couldn't understand why he left so suddenly. He only stayed for a day. Maybe he lost interest after seeing his ex!I also contemplated teaching him painting every weekend! I'm not really sure about it?But how can I back out now when I promised him that thing? He might get even angrier at me and make things more difficult for me."Zhanea, how

"What's your drama there? Why do you need filters and effects?" I said. The corner of my lips slightly lifted.His mind seemed like a video, so chaotic! The other day, he said he liked a girl who didn't like him back!We're walking along the shore now. He looks frustrated. His hair is messy, and his face is slightly scowling."She's pestering me!" he muttered.It's already eight in the evening, and the moonlight is our only source of illumination on the path we're taking."Huh? She's actually beautiful. As a sign of courtesy, couldn't you just talk to her?" I almost got nervous with what I said. I even emphasized it. It's like damn.He raised an eyebrow and gave me a stern look."What?" he asked, pretending to be innocent."Do you want me to repeat it?" I said.He sarcastically glanced at me."Shut up your mouth," he muttered.I raised an eyebrow and shrugged. When I got into his car, I glanced briefly at the girl. I saw her wiping her cheek.At that moment, I felt like slapping Xahel
ACCIDENTALLY BECAME THE CEO'S WIFE - (ENGLISH VERSION) Escaping Boundaries
I took a deep breath and raised my hand. It's getting a bit numb from the four hours of painting.I'm lying down on the hammock now, feeling the breeze brushing against my skin. Eventually, I lowered my hand from its raised position.I just wanted to enjoy my vacation and paint, but why did that guy have to come here? Hasn't he forgotten what I did to him? Huh? That was last week, for crying out loud. He has quite the memory.I closed my eyes, trying to let go of my worries caused by the cold wind. Well, also the view.I'm just really thinking about what Xahel said! Yeah, what's wrong with us having a meal together? But when we meet, all of that turns into a fight.It's also my problem, being clumsy like this. I don't want to add more problems with him, especially if it's about the woman he's with.It's hard to be jealous! I'm not used to having enemies. I may be talkative, but I don't know how to catfight. That would be embarrassing for me.Especially since I'll be a teacher. What wi

"In the next morning? I had a long sleep. No sound of cars and no neighbors shouting!The only things you can hear and feel are the cool breeze and the sound of waves on the shore.I held my head. It doesn't hurt anymore, unlike last night. Maybe it was just a migraine.I got up from my bed and walked towards the window. I pushed the curtain aside and partially opened the two windows.The blue ocean greeted me. The sun was beautifully positioned above, and a few fishermen were sailing in the distance.I smiled peacefully and took a gentle breath. It's such a really good start to the day. I rested my elbows on the windowsill and let the wind play with my loose hair.A wide smile appeared on my face as I glanced below. But before I could close my mouth, I couldn't help but be surprised.Under the shade of a coconut tree was a handsome young man. He was looking seriously at the accompanying woman. Every movement of his jaw and lips was like a hair-raising melody.I closed my mouth and sl

If that is how fast the world rotates? The journey of the day was also easy.I've been back and forth in the Echavez family mansion! I'm just grateful and Xahel didn't mess with me.I learned from Shara that one week she was on vacation with friends!Is that how he really is? No goodbye to me and if I go home? Don't know the right day and month! The world just revolves around itself.I also found out that he used to be Xahel's friend! But when they had each other's lambs he stayed away.I would have asked her about it? But don't. I don't want to care. Atleast I'm not kidding Xahel! So my brain is peaceful and there is no variety of thought events today. I wish he had been there for a long time and he would never remember my fault with her! That's okay!I turned around and followed the couple. We are here today at the rest house they bought in the lagoon. The wind is fresh because it is the beautiful sea! There is no vehicle in. No to poll! Yes to Fresh. Kidding.Thanks and they though

"I'm Xahel Royce Echavez. And you are?" He said while lifting the edge of the lip."Zhanea!" My answer is heartbreaking.He was even more sorry."You're suffering from a rare disorder!" I scolded and shook her."Really? Then prove it, Baby!" She was waking up.I want to rock her with this paint brush I hold! Then we could encounter each other. He pulled me over and never finished eating. My jaw dropped before I could speak he immediately suspected me. Its still tight in my arm."Go ahead!" I will invite him.We are here today in front of their infinity pool! After he hugged me earlier he brought me here.He sat in the non-cement chair and then whistled."Paint of me, baby. Paint!" He was a scout.She convinced me to paint for her! According to me I pay for everything I did wrong to her! Whack what!"Don't try to run away from me again!" He said after I took my left foot.I nodded at him. His strength to be able to concentrate ha? Proud that he is, what?She was weak in front of me.I
