CHAPTER 169—Give In

Khlea’s Point of View

I 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

    Nishane's Point of View"COME ON, Nishane! Don't be a stubborn woman. I already talked to the directors to give you this assignment. This project belongs to you."I was going to enjoy a calm supper when my domineering mother abruptly entered the mansion and made me do something I didn't want to.I yelled, "Let me rest, will you! I have a lot of pending work to do!"A brown envelope with the contract that I will sign after accepting the assignment was placed in front of me by the woman.She is referring to a movie in which I shall play a role. Not because I dislike it. It's just that I work so much that I'm on the verge of illness. I don't get much rest now. She then requests that I work on an action series project. Oh, please!Also, the management forbids me from having someone else act and edit it when it comes to action. I must thus pull that stunt. But how can I accomplish that if I'm not getting enough rest and sleep? If I'm so exhausted, how am I meant to behave properly?Oh, God

    Nishane's Point of View"HELP! HELP!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. My loud voice echoed in the parking lot but no one seemed to hear me."No one will hear you!" A man with a masculine body, that looks like their leader, shouted.I shook my head one after another. "No! The staff and producers will hear me! They will call the police to save me!" I shouted. "Help! Help me, please!""Get that on board!" he ordered the two men holding me by both arms.I am terrified. This is terrifying! I don't know what they need from me. I have many enemies with my co-workers in show business, but I am confident that we will not reach this point. Usually, that's only about the big projects I have and they are just envious.But I know that they will not excel to the point that they will abduct me!"Somebody help me— Argh! Let me go, you asshole!" I exclaimed while struggling from their grip on me.The leader pushed the two men. "Come on! Faster!""Mom! Help me! Mom!" I couldn't stop crying when they

    Nishane's Point of ViewI AM still in a daze as I think about what happened. I have been imprisoned in this big mansion for several days and I still haven't managed to escape. Yes, I tried several times but the whole mansion is surrounded by Griffle's men. I am guarded by a lot of men. How am I going to get out of here if I'm surrounded by Clifford's tentacles?To this day, what my mother did is still a big question for me. Am I hurt? Yes. I have all the right to be hurt and to get mad at her.I did everything to meet her needs. And this is what I get after getting her spoils from me? From my own earnings?I kept thinking, wasn't everything I did enough to make a lot of money? I worked almost 24 hours just to give her enough money. I can no longer rest well enough to work and give her everything she needs.What I want is to be free from her. I never thought that in this way I would be free from her controlling nature.Tears were about to fall from my eyes when I heard three consecutiv

    Nishane's Point of ViewI AM CURRENTLY organizing my stuff in the closet. These dresses, accessories, and everything were from Clifford. He gave me everything that I needed even though I didn't ask. It shocked me because he knew the things I preferred. Even the brand of shampoo and lotion I use, he knows it.Is he my stalker?Later, I was surprised when my phone rang. I knew immediately who was calling as no other contact details were saved but his. So I can't even ask for help to get out of this place."What?!" I asked irritably."Fix yourself. I'll pick you up in a minute," he said in a plain voice.My eyes widened. "In a minute?"Doesn't he know that it takes me an hour to take a shower since I love enjoying the water? It calms my soul. I still need to dry my hair and dress myself."You heard me right."I breathed deeply. "But I still—""No buts. I'm on my way."And he hung up the call just like that.But wait... he's going to pick me up? Does that mean we are going somewhere? If w

    MEET THE ACES OF MAFIACLIFFORD's Point of View "JUST make sure your wife won't get in the way of us, I already warned you!" Allison eyes' warned me.I could see that she was agitated. She is clearly upset that I kept my plan from her. She was only startled when I presented Nishane to her as my wife, who is well-known throughout our company. Allison wasn't the only one I anticipated to respond in this manner for this reason.I made a small laugh. I said, "Allison, you don't have to do that. Do you trust me?"Gritting her teeth, Allison rolled her eyes. "You know that I will sacrifice my life to keep you safe; I put more faith in you than in myself!"Smirking, I turned to face her. "I told you that already, didn't I? You don't have to do that for me.""That's what I pledge! There is nothing you can do about that."Allison constantly criticizes me when I do something she doesn't like. When I ask her if she trusts me and my judgment, she always says she does since that is the truth

    Khlea’s Point of ViewI was just looking at my teammates while we were all holding the cue stick. My friends’ attention was focused only on Allison, who was staring at the cue ball. It stands while measuring how to attack to shoot some balls that are its target. “What do you think about that, Nishane?” The8 asked with a smirk on his lips. “It looks like our friend will be hit because of that heir. Imagine that Nishane is weak, but Clifford chose him.”No one answered us, but Allison sat down hard, causing it to shoot its target balls. She stood up properly, then looked at all of us without emotion. “Whatever happens, we don’t care anymore. It’s Cliff’s life. Their life.”She is right. But even I know that things are complicated for them, so what if Cliff has special feelings for Nishane?“Allison is right. We shouldn’t get involved in any of Cliff’s personal business with Nishane. There is only one thing we need to do for Clifford—to protect him,” Seven said.I was a little surprised

    A DINNER TOGETHERNISHANE's Point of View Being blinded by the light flowing in through the open bedroom window, I gently opened my eyes to wake up. Upon realizing where I was, I scowled.What took place last night is something I will never forget. When I first woke up, that's what I thought about right away. In my heart, a peculiar horror took hold. Again feeling shaky, my entire body trembled.I had the impression that the space where I had been shackled to a chair made of metal and prayed I wouldn't pass away was still there. I've only spent a few years on earth, and that night was the only time I prayed that I wouldn't pass away because I still had so much to do. To save my life, I begged.I cautiously stood up and leaned against the bed's headboard. Clifford, my husband, spat when the bedroom door finally opened. I assumed that he was holding a platter that was filled with food.I gulped quickly out of fear and trepidation. However, I was aware that I had to struggle again

    Khlea’s Point of View“You just woke up, Khlea?” The8 asked me when I passed him in the pool area. He was taking a bath and it looked like he had been there for a while.“Hmm. Have you eaten yet?”The8 went up and took the towel that was on the bench. He wore boxers and wiped his body. “It’s been a while since I’ve been hungry again.”I laughed a little. “So, what did you eat for breakfast?” I crossed my arms across my chest.“Coffee and bread, but Seven, he cooked an omelette.”“How about Allison?” I asked.He thought for a moment. “It’s like I didn’t see her eat earlier, but she was at the racing field. Just go if you want to invite her to eat breakfast.” “Okay. Are you leaving later?”“Of course. You also coming with us. The four of us will leave later.”I frowned. “I’m with you.” Although I know that the four of us will actually leave later. I just thought it wasn’t because I’m too lazy to act now.“Of course. I’ll get dressed first.”“Okay. I’m just going to meet Allison at the

    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
