Cruz set the timer on his phone and soon, their duel began.

Within four rounds of swimming, Cruz paused to rest and catch his breath while Jessica proceeded.

Cruz knew what he was doing and after a few second rest he continued and in a few minutes, the duel was over.

While Jessica finished 4 minutes 43 seconds, Cruz was able to complete his in 4 minutes, 37 seconds winning the duel with just six seconds.

Jessica sharply turned around and faced the edge on the other side of the pool and with a reasonable part of her body still fully submerged in water and her hands resting on the ground right after the pool, she seethed with rage.

Apart from losing the match, Jessica hated the idea that he won despite resting while she didn't.

"You rested, I didn't but you ended up beating me, doesn't that sound like fraud?" She asked, turning sharply to see Cruz before turning back.

"That's the strategy dear. You didn't rest at all and that made you tired during the last three rounds and you

    "What are you talking about now?" Cruz asked, feigning ignorance to Cade's question. "Don't you think I'm the last person you should play such ignorant games with?" Cade asked angrily and Cruz knew he had a point. Cade knew Cruz more than himself and there was no need to feign ignorance around him but telling him the truth was also a big NO and Cruz knew how to end this kind of topic. "What? You think I'm playing a game with her?" Cruz asked angrily but Cade remained mute to hear what his brother had in his defense. "You saw how embarrassed she was when you walked in earlier and I know you are not happy about it. That was exactly what I was trying to avoid. I won't deny I admired her while she was asleep but I pretended to be sleeping when she woke up just so she wouldn't feel embarrassed or awkward but it's evident you don't even trust me. It's obvious you also believe that I tried to rape her at the club that is why you are being so weary of me but I'm really disappointed that

    Cruz quickly shut his mouth and stretched his hand out to Jessica. "Sure!" He replied, still staring at her. "By the way, you look breathtaking." He complimented, still staring lustfully at her as he grabbed her hand. "He's right, Miss Jessica. You look really good, nobody would believe you ain't a celebrity today because I can already tell you are the best dressed." Cade added, peeking at Cruz from the corners of his eyes. "Thanks for the compliment." She replied before Cruz gently pulled her out to the compound. Cruz wasn't looking bad himself in his navy blue tuxedo. A white Tesla Model Limousine pulled up in front of them and a few other black G-wagons and SUVs parked in front and behind them. "Are we some kind of convoy? Why so many cars?" Jessica asked in disbelief. "Well…even if I don't want to, I have to go with bodyguards, especially on such occasions. I hope you understand." Cruz explained as he opened the rear seat of the white Limousine for her to enter. The ri

    "What do you all think?" Cruz finally took his eyes off Jessica and directed the question to the reporters. "I mean, before now, has anyone ever stumbled upon a reason to doubt my sexuality?" He asked but the reporters went quiet. Honestly, no one has ever questioned his sexuality and they have never been presented with a reason to doubt him except Jessica. Seeing that they had no answer to his question, he decided to come up with a clear answer to save his image and prevent further suspicions but most importantly, save his parents from having a heart attack. "I don't normally care what people think about me and I'm not preaching against homosexuality but I must say, it is not for me and will never be for me. I mean, there are thousands of beautiful ladies…" He paused and glared at Jessica with a smile this time before he continued. "...I'm yet to explore so why do I need to compare my gender with those beautiful species?" He joked and everyone ended the conversation with laug

    Jessica's questions struck Cruz's chest like a hurricane and he quickly dropped his gaze and steepled his fingers, thinking of a perfect way to end this conversation. 'This confirms she didn't hear what we talked about.' He thought to himself before raising his head and fixing his gaze on Jessica once again as an idea struck him. "Instead of worrying over me, why don't we talk about your sexuality? I mean, ever since you came here, I've never heard you talk with any man. The only person you talk with is always that bitchy…" He paused as he noticed the murderous side glare Jessica gave him and he quickly corrected himself. "...I mean, Leah. Are you a lesbian?" He asked out of the blue, leaving Jessica shocked and dumbfounded with her eyes widened. "I'm just wondering if Leah is not cheating on my friend with you." He added, intentionally provoking Jessica to talk about her sexuality. "God! Why would you even think that about me? I'm so into men and not the other way round." She

    Jessica moved her gaze from one corner of the kitchen to another, looking for a safe lie to tell while Cruz turned around and walked towards Cade with a mischievous smile on his lips. "After the show last night, Jessica and I…" "...Had another fight?" Cade interrupted. Luckily for them, Cade didn't see them kissing. All he noticed was their closeness to each other and also Jessica's clenched fist and because he trusted Jessica to not fall for his brother, he assumed the only reason for them being so close was because they were having a heated argument. "No, of course not! We were just ki…" "Yes! We were having a fight." Jessica quickly interrupted Cruz whom she thought was going to spill the truth. "Why were you fighting?" Cade asked curiously. "Well…we didn't have any fight yesterday, it just started this morning because I didn't wake up on time…your brother is depriving me of food!" Jessica lied to Cruz's surprise but Cade believed her.

    Elizabeth who was driving towards her home noticed Cruz's car parked in the field and decided to say hi but because Cruz was busy devouring Jessica with his eyes, he didn't notice her drive in and walk up to him. "What the fuck are you doing here?" Cruz asked in a whisper as he quickly turned around to see her. "I was just passing by and decided to say hi. I slept like a baby last night, thanks to you." She replied, bringing out the tip of her tongue to lick her lower lip as the thoughts of last night's sex crowded her mind. "Just leave. As you can see, I'm busy." Cruz frowned. "You're going through so much to get in between her legs and she's falling for it like a fool. I just…" "Leave!" Cruz said with gritted teeth as he noticed Jessica and Cade walking toward them. "Ok! I don't even want to see her face!" Elizabeth shrugged her shoulders before walking back to her car and driving off. "I will give it a try!" Cade announced and a big grin spread across Cruz's face.

    'Cruz! Control yourself or you might lose Your perfect chance.' Cruz cautioned himself as he scanned Jessica's round and full boobs down to her slightly shaved honey pot. As for Jessica, it was as if her brain and every part of her body stopped functioning as she just gaped into Cruz's eagle eyes. To make Jessica believe his 'Gentleman' charade, he quickly shut his eyes and found his way to where Jessica stood and helped her wrap her towel around her chest. "I'm so sorry! I should have knocked." He apologized, tugging Jessica back to reality. "I-I…how long have…you been here?" She stammered, slumping to the bed with her pants squeezed within her palm. "Long enough to hear how much of an asshole I am but I promise I didn't know you were changing if not I wouldn't have barged in." He explained, and Jessica's shock was immediately replaced by guilt. 'What? He heard all our conversation and he saw me nak…Oh, God!' She panicked within herself. "I'm really very sorry about what h

    "Miss Jessica are you in there?" Cade asked again, attempting to push the door. "Don't! Don't open the door!" Jessica yelled, almost scaring Cade away. "Are you alright? Do you need my…" "No! I'm changing…my dress so don't come in. Wait downstairs, I will…join you once I'm done!" She stammered suspiciously but Cade had to listen to her since she mentioned she was undressing. "Okay. I will wait but have you seen my brother anywhere? I can't find him in his room?" He asked and Jessica's heart stopped functioning. Cruz was standing in front of her so what believable lie could she tell to save herself now? "Does he ever tell me when he leaves the house? Please leave!" She scolded, making Cade even more suspicious but what could he do? Apart from the fact that Jessica was an elder to him, she is also his teacher so he can't be disrespectful towards her. "Cruz, I think you need to leave. Cade must never know about us." Jessica declared, distancing herself from Cruz and turning

    "Damn!” Dave exclaimed in awe. “Cruz can definitely hear us.” Dr. Kang affirmed. “Now back to why he is refusing to let us take her…”“Cruz, if you want us to treat Jessica, move your finger twice, if not move it three times.” He suggested and once again, Cruz answered by moving his fingers just twice. “And do you want us to take her? If yes, move your finger twice, otherwise, thrice.” Dr. Kang suggested again and this time, he moved his finger three times.“He wants her to be treated but he doesn’t want us to take her.” Dr. Kang explained. “That means he wants her to be treated here!” Klaus interpreted. “Perfect. Call her doctor! He should treat her here. It would only make Cruz’s condition improve.” Dr. Kang suggested. “And please, no one else must hear of this!” He warned again and the men agreed with her before Dave went to get her doctor. By the next morning, Jessica’s temperature was finally down but she was still in Cruz’s arms. The family was happy she was finally getting

    "C-coma?" She stuttered as a lone tear trickled down her cheeks. Dave who was standing behind her slowly massaged her shoulder in an attempt to keep her calm. "How long is he going to be in that condition?" Klaus, who was sitting beside her, asked curiously. "No one can say. Cruz might never wake up." Dr. Kang added. Jessica felt her heart thumping wildly inside her chest. Even though she was prepared for any news, she never expected it to be this bad. As long as the life monitor was on Cruz could be alive but the moment it is turned off, that would be the end of his life. Fortunately, Cruz and his family were rich enough to pay for as long as it would take for him to recover. Everyone was shocked by the news. Every news channel was now carrying the news of Cruz’s misfortune. Fortunately, Cruz was well-loved and he received a lot of good wishes from the masses.THREE MONTHS LATERKlaus's wedding turned out a lot smaller than planned because Cruz's condition had changed everyone

    Cade was the first to run into the room upon hearing her shriek. Fortunately, her voice pierced the soundproofed rooms thanks to the fact that Cruz has succeeded in opening the door ajar. Upon seeing Cruz's condition, Cade quickly got the attention of Dave and Klaus. ******Cruz was admitted to the emergency ward of his hospital with Dr. Kang and his assigned doctors working on him. Cade had called Dr. Kang as soon as the attack happened. Fortunately, Dr. Kang who had already predicted this was going to happen came to Los Angeles the same day Cruz had come which was why he directed them to Cruz's hospital and was able to meet up with them in time. Outside the ward was the whole family panicking while Cruz's parents pestered Dave to tell them what was going on. "Why did you have an oxygen mask with you as if you knew he was gasping for air? What is wrong with my son? Why is he in that shape?" Cruz's mom pestered Dave and Klaus, hoping any of them would spill the truth. But none o

    Jessica refused to get into the car when she was supposed to leave for her house and aside from being genuinely worried, everyone wanted to know why she was refusing to leave. "Before I leave, I want to be certain that she is nowhere near the house, or better still, I will lodge at a hotel." She finally stated her reason. "Jessica, you won't. I promise." Klaus tried to persuade her. "It doesn't matter. I don't want to live under the same roof as her." Jessica retorted. "Sister-in-law, Valeria can't leave because she was placed on house arrest. She can't even step out of the guesthouse. We can't let her off so easily after putting your life in such jeopardy." Cade added, trying to persuade Jessica to go home. "Did they persuade you to think that House Arrest will suffice? What could they possibly do to her since she is carrying their beloved boss and friends' safest child? I could lose my child anytime because of her but she's Cruz's second chance so they won't risk discomfortin

    Back in South Korea, Cruz had suffered another attack after the call and the doctors went through several hours of stress to stabilize him. It was only later the next day that Cruz finally regained his consciousness. By that time, Dave, who had left for South Korea the previous night, was already there with him. Dr. Kang was so pissed with them that he refused to speak with them. It took hours of convincing to finally get Dr. Kang to join them for a conversation but he had a patient to attend to and he agreed to join them once he was done. During that time, Cruz decided to question Dave about the circumstances back at home. "How is Jessica doing?" Cruz asked worriedly as he sat up on his bed, looking a lot thinner than he used to. "Klaus is taking care of things. Dr. Kang is mad because of your recent attack. Can you please try not to involve yourself in the family affairs for now? I promise we will take care of things." Dave pleaded. "How can I when I have completely ruined my

    By the time Dave was done with his call, he turned to meet Cade's confused gaze. "Whatever happens in the future, don't look for anyone to put the blame on." Dave warned before walking out on him, heading out of the hospital. Cade was confused about Dave's warning. All he knew was that his brother was a coward who couldn't stay with his wife when he needed her the most. He returned to the room where Jessica's mom was now sitting up, weeping. "I really didn't want to regret joining your family but now I do." She spoke out her mind while staring into Mrs. Westham's eyes. "Jessica really wanted to keep this baby. Now that this happened, she will never be the same again." She continued as she removed the IV connected to her hand and stood up to her feet. "We shouldn't all gather around me. Jessica is the patient here so let's wait around her room. I will take her back home as soon as she is discharged. She will no longer continue whatever this relationship is." She concluded an

    "Oh God!" Cade lamented. "F*ck! How could you do this again?" Dave asked as he started at Valeria in disbelief. Jessica was as confused as Valeria was. "What on earth did you give to her, b*tch?" Cade asked as he stood very close to Valeria as if she was trying to swallow her whole. "Cade, back off!" Jessica warned but Cade wasn't ready to listen to her. "What the f*ck did you give to her?" He scolded as he pushed her, making her flinch in fear. For every step she took backwards to create a space between, Cade closed in on her. Even though Cade was young, he was taller and had a well built body and with the anger in his eyes and rage in his voice, it was no doubt it scared Valeria. "Hey…w-what do you think you're doing?" Valeria stuttered. "Cade, I'm talking to you. Back the f*ck off!" Jessica scolded as she grabbed his hand and forcefully pulled him back. Dave didn't know what to do at that time since she already swallowed the pills and the only thing he could do was run ou

    Cade couldn't stop himself from crying as he saw the condition Jessica was in. He tried to run to her but his legs felt heavy so he just trudged forward until he finally reached where she was seated.Jessica spread out her arms, calling him in for a hug but Cade was hesitant so Jessica pulled him closer and hugged him tightly. "I missed you." She whispered in his ear. Cruz sniffled hard as he tried to stop his cry. "I'm sorry Sister-in-law. I really am." Cade apologized in between his sniffles. "I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise of protecting you. While I was there having fun, I had no idea you were going through hell over here." He cried as he clenched onto her. "Cade, what was our last promise at the airport?" Jessica asked as she wiped her tears with the back of her right palm. Cade was hesitant, "To stop being nosy in your marriage.""Very good." Jessica sighed as she released him from the hug and made him sit beside her on the bed. "But this is not being nosy. You're cle
