"How have you been?" Dave asked with a frown. "It doesn't look like you care. What are you doing here?" Jessica asked angrily. "To talk about something important. You came to the hospital a few days back, right?" He asked knowingly. "If you already know it, why ask again?" Jessica asked, pissed. "That was the fourth day after the accident. When he first woke up, the first request he made after asking about his victim was not to let you know about his accident. He didn't want to worry you but when you eventually found out, you claimed he was manipulating you to earn your forgiveness. Are you really that unreasonable? I know Cruz hurt you a big deal but it wasn't his fault too and he is a human too. He is hurting. Do you really think all he is good at is manipulating others?" He asked, frowning. Jessica knew she was wrong for misunderstanding Cruz but she wasn't ready to admit it in front of him. "How is this any of your business? I thought you were just his personal assistant. Ho

"Jessica?" Cruz called out in disbelief. "What exactly did she say is her problem with me?" Jessica asked again as she walked around the table and sat on the chair across from Cruz. "Umm…she's worried you're a gold digger who is only after my money." Cruz stuttered. "Woah! What audacity!" She exclaimed in disgust. "Do you now agree she is obsessed with you?" She asked and Cruz nodded hesitantly. Cruz was confused and unsure of the emotions to display at the moment. He was happy to have her here but very nervous as to the reason. "How did you know…I-I stay here?" He asked, still surprised by her presence. "I asked Dave." She replied sharply.After Jessica's response, there was an awkward silence that lasted for seconds until Jessica cleared her throat. "Did you buy WeCom to make me forgive…" Jessica could barely finish her statement when Cruz interrupted. "No! I swear I didn't do it to compel you into forgiving me. Long before our relationship ended this way, I had plans of buy

"Cruz, do I really have to…" "Jessica, don't! Just answer my question." Cruz angrily interrupted. "Who exactly is he to you?" He asked again. "Umm…" Jessica paused, purposely putting Cruz in agony and suspense. "Jess, what's going on here? What's up with him?" Derek asked as he was forced to step out of his car. "Huh?" Cruz scoffed, rolling his eyes at Derek in disgust. "Jess? Who do you think you are to call her Jess?" He bawled angrily as he pushed Derek's shoulder slightly. "Oh…this guy is driving me crazy." He mumbled, scratching his head roughly. At this point, Jessica could barely hold back her laughter. The men looked like they were going to start a fight and Abigail, who was in the car, stepped out to see what was happening. Jessica eventually stopped laughing seeing how worried Abigail was. "Guys stop. Cruz, this is my uncle who doesn't like to be called Uncle. Meet Derek!" She finally introduced him. Cruz was startled, confused, and very embarrassed. Even though th

"Her! I don't know how to go about this." Klaus panicked, still confusing Cruz. "Klaus, you need to calm down and tell me exactly who we are talking about here." Cruz advised. Jessica on the other hand was dying with curiosity and instead of starting her day as a barista, she sat down and eavesdropped on Cruz's conversation. "Oh, this is driving me crazy." Klaus panicked."Klaus, none of this is going to make sense if you don't tell me who we are talking about here. Just calm down and tell me." Cruz advised. Klaus eventually calmed down and with much hesitation, he replied, "V-Valentine. Valentine Brooklyn. She's pregnant and the big news is it's mine." "Oho! Klaus, you…you did what? You've become a total badass!" Cruz praised as he jumped up to his feet and faced the other side, making it harder for Jessica to eavesdrop. "What are you saying? I haven't stepped out of my room since I got the news yesterday and you say it's badass. You know, you're good with women. Tell me how to

TWO MONTHS LATERCruz quickly cross-checked the foods on the table before checking the decorations he made. He was on the rooftop of the hotel he had lodged in for the past two months. It was late evening and the place was beautifully decorated with beautiful rose petals and balloons. The lights were dim but the stars were shining brightly above them.On the table were two plates of grilled steak and barbeque sauce, a bottle of red wine with two wine glasses, and a box of chocolate and other snacks for dessert. "Everything is perfect, right?" Cruz asked Dave who just joined him with a bouquet of flowers. "Yeah, it's cute and I know your woman will like it. She's already on her way." Dave replied casually but Cruz panicked."What? She's already on her way?" He asked curiously and Dave nodded. "Just drop the flower and leave. I don't want her to meet you here." Cruz ordered as he quickly collected the flower and pushed him to the door. As soon as Dave left, Cruz quickly cross-check

Jessica expected some kind of response from Dave and she didn't get it after several seconds of going silent, she became confused and embarrassed.Her grip tightened as she thought he was still angry with her. "Umm…Jes-si-ca…" He was about to talk when Jessica's eyes landed on another manly figure standing in front of the bathroom door and facing her. It was Cruz in his towel staring at Jessica with a frown plastered all over his face. "Cruz…?" Jessica stuttered as she quickly pulled herself from the man she was back hugging and he finally turned to face her. "You got the w-wrong person." Dave whom she had hugged spoke up, his face looking flustered. "You should have said that earlier. That hug was meant for me!" Cruz scolded angrily but Dave just smirked. "Then you should have packed up on time." Dave mumbled before he continued unpacking. "Jessica! Dave and I look nothing alike. How could you mistake me for him?" Cruz complained, still very upset. "Well…I didn't expect anyon

What was more shocking was the fact that the date was so close. Amazingly, they were stunned since the wedding venue was beyond expectations.

"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.

Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Comatose
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
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Last Attack
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
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher His Return
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
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher House Arrest
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
Billionaire's Bet - My Brother's Teacher Swallow
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
