“Honey!” Andrea Theodore exclaimed, welcoming her husband with warm hugs. Servants in the mansion chuckled while looking at the sweet couple. Somehow, Manuel and Andrea became their role models. It is so rare to see married couples who stay sweet and affectionate to each other for a long time. “Ahuh, it seems like my wife missed me so much,” Manuel let out a throaty chuckle. “Of course,” Andrea said. She looked at him and showed a bright look in her eyes. Manuel flinched. Before going to the business trip, Andrea reassures Manuel that she will follow Lance’s blind date to make sure that their son isn’t dating a man. Seeing the smile on Andrea’s face, Manuel felt like he would be hearing good news. “I have something to tell you,” she said. Andrea pulled Manuel to their room and she let him sit on the bed. Manuel could see the excitement at the way she perched down beside him, and of course, with a candy-like beam on her lips. “Good news, good news,” Andrea started. “Our son w
While laying on his bed, Eric looked at the hand who held Jane. ‘If I didn’t let her go, maybe I…’ He closed his hand along with an unfinished thought. “That’s right. I did a good job with letting her go too,” he said with a sigh. As he looked at the ceiling, he heard knocks from the door. Eric quickly sat up and stared at the entrance. Is dinner ready? “It’s me, Eugene.” Eric was slightly disappointed that it wasn’t Jane. But soon, he felt happy that his son reached him first. “It’s not locked. Come in.” The door opened, and the child went in with a paper in his hand. Eric hopped down on the bed and said, “I didn’t expect to see you coming in my room.” “What did you say to mom before?” Eugene asked. “Did you tell her that you like her and…Mmp!” As fast as lightning, Eric shut Eugene by covering his mouth. The boy frowned while looking at his father. “I did not. And I won’t,” Eric said. Eugene pulled his father’s hand away from his mouth and uttered, “Mom is in the kit
Andrea Theodore came to the restaurant that her family owns to meet Valerie Desmond.Since Valerie said that she wanted to meet with Andrea to talk about Lance, Andrea went anxious. She came to their meeting place a bit earlier than their promised time.While waiting, Andrea kept on drinking water from her glass.She was nervous.“If it is about my son, I hope it is not connected to Eric.” She grabbed the glass again with both of her hands and took a sip.“Andrea.”Quickly, she gulped the water and placed the glass back on the table before she turned her head.“Valerie!”Andrea stood up from her seat. They greeted each other with small kisses on cheeks.“It been so long since the last time I saw you,” Andrea said to Valerie with a smile.Valerie, who’s cold to everyone, smiled at Andrea. Among the people she knows, Andrea is the kindest. She trusts her so much as her friend, given that their families have a good bond for many years. That is more the reason why Valerie wanted to meet
“Andrea, listen to me,” Valerie said. “That woman is dangerous. Lance shouldn’t date her.” “Why? What makes you think so?” Andrea inquired, quite befuddled. “Because she is a gold digger.” “What?” Andrea gasped. “That woman,” Valerie added. “She is that gold digger who seduced my son.” Andrea blinked swiftly while gaping. She was not sure if she heard Valerie right, even if Valerie repeated it twice. ‘What does Valerie mean by being a gold digger and seducing Eric?’ Andrea asked inside her head. Andrea cupped the glass of water and lifted it with her trembling hands. She took a sip and barely swallowed the water down through her throat. Unable to calm down, Andrea leaned closer and inquired. “V-Valerie. I don’t think I can follow you well. Can you please elaborate this? L-Like are y-you r-really saying that my son is dating a gold digger, who seduced Eric?” Valerie nodded her head with a heavy sigh. “That woman was Eric’s classmate during college. She seduced my son and…” Sh
“Eric was so cold. It is just eating breakfast in his house. But he coldly sent me away. That b*stard,” Lance complained while driving.Opposite to his words, there was a huge smile on his face.After Lance’s sudden visit, Eric sent him away. Byron came and picked up Eugene to school. While Jane came with Lance on the way to work.Jane has no idea how Lance handled Eric. Either way, she thinks Lance has no right to complain at Eric’s cold attitude.‘You came to the house knowing that Eric will get annoyed,’ Jane thought while narrowing her eyes to her boss.Lance knows her relationship to Eric, so Jane wasn’t worried anymore. She thought that Lance only came there to irritate Eric.It was one of Lance’s reasons. But his priority is Jane. Unfortunately, the NBSB (NO BOYFRIEND SINCE BIRTH) Jane has no clue.“Boss, you are kind,” Jane complimented. “But sometimes, you are really childish,” she ended it with a complaint.“Childish?” Lance asked while driving, “Did you think that I came t
Inside a car in the middle of the jam traffic, Cyrus was sitting on the back seat with his secretary in charge of the wheel. He was watching a video of CCTV footage through his tablet. Arthur Monteverde was Cyrus’ close business partner.When Arthur heard that Eric became the official CEO of Geelq Car Company, he withdrew his investment for the sake of his friendship with Cyrus. Cyrus did not plan this. However, he knew that Eric would do his best to win Arthur back. But what happened next? Eric fought with Arthur and assaulted him with multiple injuries. Cyrus was so curious. ‘Why would Eric assault an important investor?’ Just a day after, Arthur released a statement regarding the scandal. He said that the fighting scandal isn’t real and that Monteverde will invest at the Geelq again. It was calm after the storm. Although Arthur said that no assault happened Cyrus believed that the fight did occur between them because he saw Eric’s wounds and cuts, as well as Arthur’s medic
Friend?Cyrus made it sure to show Jane that he’s interested in her romantically. It was only an acting, but at least Cyrus thought that it would work on her.But what did Jane say to him?‘It would be fun to be my friend?’ Cyrus repeated inside his head while looking at the woman sitting in front of him.His eyes, which had been cold to everyone, swiftly blinked. Cyrus wasn’t sure if she’s pretending or she’s really an idiot.“You think… can we be friends?” he asked at a very slow pace.Jane smiled at him and answered, “Why not? You don’t look bad at all.”“Bad?”“Yes. Now that I met you in person, I don’t think I should judge you. Another thing, you helped the old woman by catching the thief. If you aren’t kind, then why did you help?”The reason?Cyrus wasn’t sure either. He just hates the fact that no one dares to help when there are many people around the place. Because when he was young and hopeless, no one reached his hand to help him. Simply, he only helped because the situat
Eric was on his way to Singapore to meet the new investors for Geelq Car Company. If he loses some, he only needs to look for new ones.This wasn’t on his original schedule. But when he received the invitation through email, he did not hesitate to agree.While Eric was sitting inside his private plane with an eye mask, Secretary Byron looked at him.Eric was always excited for weekdays because he will spend his days with Jane and Eugene.‘I thought that my boss would cancel the flight. But he did not,’ Byron thought while looking at his sleeping boss.Ever since this morning, Eric has not been in the good mood. Byron guessed that it might because Lance visited his place and fetched Jane.Byron was half right.Because until now, Eric was bothered by Lance’s warning and his mother’s schemes.[“For someone who’s about to get married, I don’t think you have the right to stop me, Eric. Jane and Eugene stayed in your house. But that does not mean they are your property. Sure, Eugene is your
