Nishane's Point of View

I SOUGHT to forget about my mother as soon as I made the decision to move on with my life. I'm still hurt, not because I'm angry with her. I made the decision then to stop thinking about her in order to stop being so heartbroken. I choose to put an end to considering her justifications. Even though I am holding Clifford's arm, I have quit wondering what I'm worth and will keep trying to find peace of mind.

I came to terms with the idea that I could not return to the life I had before and began living it as the wife of the richest CEO in the whole world. My adolescent years are finally over. I must make way for a mature and serious one.

I've also spoken with the Aces. And to this day, Allison continues to irritate me. Since that was the first time I met her, I'm still baffled as to why she was so upset with me. I don't understand why she is so angry with me. Why does she despise me so much? Did I ever do her something that I don't recall doing?

Or...

    Khlea's Point of View The four of us, Allison, Seven, and The8, were quiet as we headed to the black market, where we were going to meet another client. The transaction we will do today is big because Mr. Tuazon is a VVIP. The one who used to negotiate with him was Clifford, but now our friend is too busy with his wife. "This isn't the first time we'll transact here with Mr. Tuazon, but I'm nervous now," I whispered. I heard The8 laugh softly, so I turned to him. "I can't believe you're a coward to that old man." "I'm not a coward. I'm just nervous for some reason I can't explain, but I'm not a coward! Duh!" I made him suffer. What my friend said is offensive. I crossed my arms across my chest. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw Seven, who was driving, shake his head. Allison was just quietly looking out the window. Doesn't seem to care what we're talking about. I just sighed and focused my attention outside the window as well. "It seems like it would be nice to go to the Mal

    Nishane's Point of View "GO AHEAD. Eat more," I said and placed a ladle of dishes on him. When I did that, I inhaled deeply. It's something I don't typically do. I detest how awkward I am behaving.Several days have passed and we are, once more, here in the dining area. I cooked for him again since I wanted to ask for something. I didn't have the chance to tell him last time because Aces needed him that time. So I want to try my luck again. Hoping that he'll give it.Despite my anxiety, I want to tell him something. I say this because I'm uncertain if he will grant my request. He may or may not like it, I'm not sure. For me, it won't be a huge problem even though this will be the first time I've asked him for a favor. Because he begged for my presence in his life, it is the least he can do.Still, I'm at a loss for words. Something kept me from speaking, even though I wanted to. I'm sure I'll insist nonetheless, though. I really don't want our misunderstanding to stem from this.C

    Nishane's Point of View I DIDN'T wait too long, Clifford immediately complied with my request tonight. He canceled his meetings for tomorrow. I was ashamed because he did that for me but he said I shouldn't be ashamed because he wants to accompany me in all my walks, not because he will watch over me but because he wants to ensure my safety. Something I understand because I never forget what kind of person he is. He is not an ordinary person. He has many enemies because apart from the CEO, he is a Mafia Lord.In fact, I am thankful because Clifford is with me now. I'm nervous. This is not the first time I go to the place where my suspected father is because in my long search for him, I have been to many places. Even outside the country. I'm nervous because I might fail again. I was nervous that he might not be the father I was looking for. I have failed to find him several times but every time I get information from him, I can't help but hope.I am longing for him.Clifford and

    Khlea's Point of View"Are you okay?" Allison asked me after the private doctor who looked at me left. Here they took me to our private hospital, where only we can be patients.I nodded in response. "Yes. I wasn't fooled. It's a good thing my reflexes are fast." I took a deep breath while looking at Allison.She was just looking at my bandaged arm. "Mr. Tuazon's behavior is very bad. Even if we don't investigate it, we immediately know that Mr. Tuazon is the mastermind of the ambush that happened to us.""Does Clifford know what happened to me?""Yes, I told him.""I am sure he has gone so mad.""You know him. He doesn't want anything bad to happen to his Aces." Allison crossed her arms across her chest. "Don't join our schedules for the next few days.""What? No way. I can't not be with you. My wound is only shallow and it won't affect my skills, Allison." I don't feel any pain now.I don't have any more wounds now than the ones I received in the first ambushes that happened to us.S

    Nishane's Point of View AS EXPEXTED, Clifford and I did not go in the direction indicated by the information I gathered about my suspected father. We immediately went to the private hospital just inside the executive village owned by my husband which is close to their headquarters.Our trip was not easy and I feel tired all over my body but I have no right to complain because I understand the situation."Where's Khleassandra?" Clifford asked Allison when we arrived. We were just in the hallway and it was just the three of us.Even before we got here, Clifford explained to me why they have their own hospital in their village. And I can't help but be amazed at their status. All the staff, nurses and doctors are members of their mafia. Some of them preferred to study medicine and others lived to study medicine forcefully for their mafia.Studying medicine for them is free and the mafia leader will cover all the expenses for their studies, in return they have to be smart and live to

    Khleassandra's Point of View When Allison got back inside my private room, Seven and The8 were already with her. My friends' faces are serious. I put down the cell phone; that was my pastime. 'Hey, what's up?" I greeted them. "We already know who is the mastermind behind ambushing us." "It's Mr. Tuazon, right?" I asked. Even if they don't say it, I know that the old man is really the one with the plan. I clenched my fists. "Anyway, it's really dirty to negotiate with that old man!" I just took a deep breath. "What if we just kill him to reduce the number of people like him in the world?" "You know we can't kill him... right now." Seven stood elegantly while looking at me seriously. "Don't worry. Clifford already talked to Allison and we know what to do." "What? You're just going to let what that old man did to us? Look at my arm!" "Khlea, calm down. Of course we will not allow Mr. Tuazon to miss what he did to you. Let the plan be fixed so we don't get in trouble. You know abou

    Nishane's Point of View "ARE YOU alright and ready?"As soon as I heard Clifford ask, I inhaled deeply. Sincerably, I was very anxious. As his wife, I will be visiting his workplace for the first time today to assist him with those matters. Our relationship has been widely reported on social media, even if I haven't yet verified it.I've been contacted by news outlets multiple times for interviews, but I purposely decline. It doesn't seem appropriate for me to confirm everything at this moment. I still need to change something, and I won't do it right now.The only option left for my supporters is to snoop around me. Clifford hides me so effectively, though, that they can't really follow me. Even so, everytime I walk outside, I ask his security to watch over me.I can go out alone, and Clifford permits me to do so. Without him, I'm free to go. His bodyguards are still with me, though. I cannot leave without his bodyguards, so he forbids it.Clifford only permitted my personal ass

    Nishane's Point of View I had a terrible first day. Despite not having done anything strenuous, I feel really exhausted. I avoided lifting anything heavy. Throughout the day, I didn't use any energy on completing my chores. However, my mind is drained. It was very taxing. When I went home, I hardly spoke at all. I'm too exhausted to talk.Clifford just let me feel that, which is unpleasant. He didn't even look at me once the entire time I was working. He turned me over to the team manager and the heads. He never even said hello to me.I had numerous conversations with managers about the company's operations. Who founded it and how it got its start. How the company is run and what will lead to its failure. All of that I discovered in a single day. But when I arrived at the estate that day, I had forgotten everything. One of my talents is that. All the information I need to remember is simple for me to memorize, but it's also simple for me to forget it.Clifford irritated me so

    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
