NISHANE's Point of View I WOKE up the next day with a heavy chest. I catch my breath because I'm in pain. I had a very painful dream but I can't remember the details of my dream. But I'm sure it's about my dad. It's about him that hurts me.Whether I admit it to myself or not, there is a part of me that is incomplete because he is not with me.I suddenly had a dream about my father for reasons I do not understand. I'm not sure if I miss him because up until this point, I've been baffled by his disappearance. He had been deceased for a very long period, according to my mother. I believe my father abandoned him as a result of his misbehavior. I'm unsure of what is accurate. I also want to see him if he's still around so we can talk further.But... Will he still recognize me? Does he realize that I am still here? He still knows he has a kid like me, right?I don't know why that truth is kept from me. Is my father a bad person? Does he hate me? Is he also a mafia boss like Clifford
Khlea's Point of ViewI felt good when I woke up that morning. I don’t have anywhere else to go today, so I just thought of going to the gym to exercise. My friends and I have been busy these past few days, so we only saw each other even though we live in the same building. Even Allison I have not seen again.I was also busy talking to Cindy as I was helping her find a good hospital she could see for a second opinion. It’s not just me who wants her to get, but also her herself. I can also see that it is positive to think that her personality is really like that. I never saw the weakness of Cindy’s heart that I belong to her. We became a lover before so as much as I can, help I will do to improve her. It’s not like I have a conscience about her that something bad will happen to her because I will leave her. I also feel sorry for what she spent to reduce what she understood.“Are you sure you can’t come here?” Cindy asked on the other line as I walked on the treadmill. She has been aski
Khlea's Point Of View I was just stunned while sitting on the edge of the swimming pool. I have a schedule today to go see Cindy. We had a discussion about whether I would accompany her to another doctor so she could get a second opinion. I also just want to make sure that she will be treated well and get better; that's why I'm going with her. My attention turned to Allison, who came up from the pool. She is wearing a red two piece bikini. I can't help but stare at her beautiful and sexy body shape. For me, Allison's body is perfect and even more beautiful than mine. Of the two of us, she is more beautiful and sexier. That's okay because I'm not competing with her. I'm even proud of what she has. "Why are you staring at me like that?" Allison asked me as she wiped her body. Only then did I realize what she said, so I avoided looking at her. "I'm not staring at you," I said, even though I knew she caught me. The corner of Allison's lips did not escape the corner of my eyes. "Any
Nishane's Point of View "GET DRESSED and prepare yourself well. We will go somewhere."Clifford's words caused my eyes to widen. Since he arrived back from his business trip, he has been residing here at the house for five days, and during those five days, something has been occurring between the two of us. Yes, after he leaves his own firm and always at night.We already sleep together in bed because we're both married. That didn't matter to me since I simply opted to embrace our marriage when he wasn't around. Simply put, I don't love him. There is no love between us. Clifford needs a wife, thus the only reason we are together is because I don't have a choice.I pleaded with him not to make plans to have kids at this time. Actually, we discussed it and established guidelines.We also discussed topics that bothered us. Particularly me, as many people are eagerly awaiting my return. Social media still has my name all on it. My followers are still trying to find me. We must be ho
Nishane's Point Of View AT SEVEN o'clock in the evening, Clifford and I made our way to a respected steakhouse run by the man who identified himself as my husband. Once more, I'm disguised but, not the typical one I can still make out. This time, we made sure that I won't be identified because, rather than a cap, I'm sporting a red wig.Clifford questioned me as I sat in a seat that was empty, "Will you be okay?"The table is actually only reserved for two people. I decided to speak to my mother on my own, as we had agreed with Clifford. Even yet, I declined his invitation to come and support me. My anxiety is real. For a few of weeks, I didn't see my mother. For a few weeks, we didn't communicate. And I must admit that I am speechless when speaking to her. Now that I am aware of why I was in Clifford's care, I am at a loss for words.And I am confident that Clifford, despite his great worry, understands how I am feeling right now. However, I assured him that I can handle it on my
Khlea's Point of ViewI was just leaning against the side of my car door while waiting for Cindy. She just bought something at the drug store, and I didn't even accompany her inside. It happened that I saw a shop, so I got out of the car and looked. But a few minutes passed, and Cindy still wasn't there. My forehead is already wrinkled because she didn't tell me that she would be there for a long time. I straightened up and took a deep breath. I just decided to follow her inside. "Good morning, Ma'am," the guard greeted me at the entrance of the drug store. I just smiled and went straight inside. I frowned when I noticed that there weren't many people, so it was impossible for Cindy to stay long. I stepped forward to check the place, but she was not there. I immediately approached the guard who had greeted me earlier. "Sir, have you seen a woman wearing a mint green dress? She's a little smaller than me. She's beautiful. Mestiza." I'm still describing Cindy. The guard I was talk
Nishane's Point Of View "ARE YOU scared, my naughty wife?"I snorted and glared at Clifford. "I am not, okay? I just feel uncomfortable!" I refuse. I looked around the entire area in front of me and I couldn't help but to shiver. "This place is horrible!"I still find it hard to believe that I am standing in front of the enormous structure he refers to as their headquarters, which has the appearance of a hideous and magnificent residence. I still have trouble forgetting my initial visit to this place, and it still gives me a creepy feelings because of what transpired there. Even now, when I think about that, I still get the shivers, but if I don't get over my fear, I'll never be okay. Because they are now a part of my daily reality, I must confront my anxieties and concerns.I somehow came to terms with the fact that this is indeed my life after talking to my mother. I have to admit it now. And even though I hate to accept the fact that this is my life now, I should. "Tell me if
Khleassandra's Point of View: "Calm down, Allison. Just let Clifford do what he wants. In the first place, there's nothing you can do but just let them both go," Seven said to Allison while we were outside the head quarters. "I'm calm. I'm just annoyed because that Nishane has too much attitude! Who does she think she is if she can have attitude?" "You are just the same," The8 whispered.Allison glared at The8. Even though we all heard what he said. "Shut up, The8!" The8 raised his two hands as if he were about to give up. "Chill, Allison." I couldn't stop laughing because I knew he was scared too. Who wouldn't be afraid of Allison? Just now, we were surprised when she suddenly raised her gun, just because Nishane responded by raising an eyebrow. "It's better that we go to our rooms so we can rest," Seven told us, looking at Allison. "Calm down, huh? Just think about Clifford." "I'm really thinking about him, and I don't care about his wife," Allison said and started walking in
CHAPTER 169—Give InKhlea’s Point of ViewI JUST STARED in front of the laptop monitor as I tried to get what I learned today into my mind. It's confirmed! The flashdrive with the keychain that I found inside Luna's drawer does belong to La Tigresa. But Seven hasn't replied yet whether that's what I really meant.I don't understand how I should feel now. Should I be happy because somehow, I have found something that I really want to target in Luna. Or sad because it wasn't enough? I'm confused.I'm here now in my condo. I don't know how to feel right now. It's not that I'm defending Luna but what if Luna had nothing to do with the La Tigresa transaction? Because there is a part of my heart that is protesting and seems to be telling me that Luna doesn't know anything. But I also know that it is impossible that Luna knows nothing about her father's business.I can no longer understand myself. Back then, I really wanted to succeed in my mission, but now, I just catch myself laughing and
CHAPTER 168—Gun & FlashdriveKhlea’s Point of ViewI felt a hand on my shoulder causing me to look back and see who it was. “Seven!”“Hmm. Does it look nice?” he asked as if he read my mind.I faced here. "Why did you leave Allison? That might be necessary,” I said."Don't overact. He fell asleep because of the medicine that was injected into him." He bowed and thought for a moment. When he looked at me, he immediately grinned. "I know what you are thinking, Khlea.""What are you saying?""The way you look at Luna Aballos, there seems to be something different.""Come on, Seven. Even you?""I have trust in you. We. But I hope you don't destroy it." Because of the way it was pointed, it was as if someone had kicked my chest. A part of my heart seems to have been hit by his words.I didn't move. It's like even I don't know what to do anymore. What I do know is that what is happening to me is still part of the plan. I smiled at Seven. "Don't worry because I know what I'm doing.""I hope
CHAPTER 167—Allison's wordsKhlea’s Point of ViewI know that Allison is very angry with me. He is not alone because I feel the same way about it. I also feel bad that we ended up like that. I didn't expect that we would exchange words like that and he looked like he didn't trust me.I know what I'm doing and I don't deviate from the plan. If he notices that I'm getting close to Luna, he should be happy because I'm starting to fall in love with that one. I don't understand why we still have to get into an argument because of his interference in what I'm doing.I'm not young and we're not even in a relationship to explain to myself why I didn't come home. He didn't even know that I had a disease.I was stunned for a while while my car stopped because the traffic light was still red. 'It's up to Allison. It's his fault why I got annoyed with him.' I took a deep breath before waking up when I heard a car horn behind me.I shook my head to clear myself and take my mind off what happened o
CHAPTER 165—Limitation and Boundaries Khlea’s Point of ViewLUNA was carrying two bottles of ladies drink while walking near where I was. When she got close, she reached for one of mine. She sat next to me. We are now on the roof top and can freely look at the vast sky full of stars. The wind that hits our skin is also cold so it is inevitable that I feel cold."Are you cold?"I nodded. “Yes. Why did we go here?""It's better that we're here. I also miss star gazing," she said as she looked at the bottle she was holding.That is also what I did. I also looked at the sky then took a deep breath. I have to admit that I feel better because earlier, I was stressed with Allison. I just tried to accept our answer in my mind. It's up to me if it makes me angry. I'll just talk about it tomorrow when I get home and we meet at headquarters."So what did your friend say? Has it calmed down?” Luna asked when she looked back at me.I shook my head. "Not yet. I'll just talk to her tomorrow when I
CHAPTER 165—Her Real FeelingsNishane’s Point of View"WHAT do you think Olive wants to happen? I feel that she is just making a way to get her Clifford's. I mean, yes. Maybe she really likes Clifford, but I hope she doesn't feel sorry for you. You and Clifford no longer have a relationship. It's been a long time since you two broke up, so if she wants a man who was connected to you then, don't feel sorry for yourself," said Mirae.I told her about what Clifford said this morning. "For me, she is a very frustrated woman. Didn't she think she was beautiful? Rich. Many people will like her. Why does she still want Clifford, right?" Because I'm annoyed. Why Clifford?"Hey!" Mirae called me so I looked at her. "Why do you say that you don't want Clifford to be with her?""Huh? That's not what I meant. I'm not saying anything like that. My only point is, with so many men in the world, why Clifford?""There's nothing we can do if Clifford really wants it, okay? Just you, let her. My point
CHAPTER 164—Talk to him againNishane's Point of ViewI could NOT sleep at night because Clifford was still gone. He left a while ago and left The8 sleeping in the guest room. I shouldn't have waited for him but I was worried so I waited for him to come back to my house. Their luggage is still here. He said he was going to talk to someone but still nothing until I fell asleep for a while.It was four o'clock in the morning when I heard the knock so I got up and went to the door to open it. I immediately smelled the alcohol so I had the idea that Clifford had been drinking. I closed my eyes for a while to condition myself.I rubbed my eyes. The light was off in the entire living room but because of the small lampshade with a light bulb, that was the only light that provided light to the four corners of the house. I can see the bulk of Clifford's body."Have you eaten? I guess you've been drinking?""Yeah. I'm sorry if I disturbed you. Because I remembered, The8 and I's stuff is here. I
CHAPTER 163—Press Conference Nishane's Point of ViewMY heart was filled with anger because the fake news created by Olive spread immediately. I didn't think that her attitude was so bad that she could ruin my business just because she was jealous of me. I can't accept that the business that we worked hard for as friends was just ruined because of her story.I clenched my palms as I looked at the CCTV footage where it was obvious how the drinks ordered by the customers were being made throughout the day. We have experienced CCTV, police and reporters in front of us because we need to clear the name of my business. I was so angry that I had the police pick up Olive from the shop. I thought I was going to have a heart attack because I felt my neck thicken with anger."As you can see in the full video from the CCTV footage, around 8:15 to 9 o'clock at night it is obvious how the drinks are made. Olive didn't come to my coffee shop either and we are looking for the person she said bought
CHAPTER 162—Forgetting Something AgainKhlea's Point of ViewAT FIRST I was very surprised but when I saw Luna's sweet lips that seemed to be teasing me, I felt so sleepy that my eyelids closed on their own.I don't know about such things but my lips spontaneously responded to her kiss. Luna's way of kissing was intoxicating. Slowly and seemingly savoring every moment our lips touch. Luna moved and moved closer to me. I didn't object but I responded to her kiss.Luna's lips moved away from mine so I opened my eyes. Our bodies are still touching today. Luna looked at my face again and brought her lips to my forehead. It was as if a warm palm caressed my heart because of what she did. I closed my eyes. My hands are clinging to her arms."Thank you for coming with me," she said, then hugged me.I'm not sure if the heartbeat I feel and hear is mine. It's like the strength of that.I just smiled at her as she walked away from me. "You're always welcome, Miss Luna," I said. "It's just work
CHAPTER 161—She Kissed HerKhlea's Point if View"ARE you excited yet?" Luna asked me when we got dressed. When we woke up, she told me to get dressed because we had somewhere to go. She didn't say where so I really have no idea.“A bit. You don't want to tell me where we're going." She just smiled at me so I just let her. Our travel time was a few minutes before we got out of the car.I WAS amazed as my eyes looked at the entirety of the yacht that Luna and I climbed on. Luna held my hand because I was a little dizzy from the waves of the sea. There are acquaintances congratulating her. I don't know any of them. Nothing familiar to me.But in the way they dress, complexions will show the luxury of life. There were also male guests who were also talking to Luna and focused their attention on me.I just smiled and tried to hide the nervousness I felt. When a server came by to serve drinks, I immediately grabbed a goblet of golden liquid.Luna and I looked at each other. He frowned when
