Chapter Thirty four
I trembled as I took my cellphone from my bag and dialed a number. Gasping for breath, I hid in a corner on the same street leading to my apartment.
When the number answered, it felt like a glimmer of hope! I didn't expect this to happen to me. I was just going to buy a gift for Mom!"D-d-dad.""What happened?! Are you okay?""D-dad, help. Huhu." I've been running to escape them since earlier. If only I hadn't noticed those guys this morning, I don't know."Someone hurt you?! Who?" I covered my ear because he was shouting. I was more concerned about my ear than those guys."B-because someone's following me. Since this morning. They're like dogs! I'm tired of running. I look like I have a stalker!"Dad fell silent on the other line. I thought he hung up. "That's not my people, Isabella. I'm not desperate enough to assign someone to watch over you.""Huh? Whose people are they then--" Suddenly, someone came to minRelated chapters

Mama focused on listing various items on the table while I wrapped the groceries for the customers. I had been selling in front for a while now since more people were buying."Ate, one kilo of this," a young lady pointed to the pork."Kuya, one kilo," the guy just nodded and started slicing the meat. I handed him a plastic bag, and he swiftly placed the sliced meat into it, weighing it."Beyutipol, buy your mussels!" a man shouted as he approached."None left. Go to the other stall!" I didn't bother looking at him since I was busy calculating another customer's purchase."564 in total, ma'am," I quickly said to the woman as I handed over her groceries. She took out a thousand, which I immediately gave to Mama.The other customers left, leaving only him in front. "Are there really no mussels? There were plenty earlier," the man scratched his head."All gone, sir. Come back tomorrow. Why did you come so late? You know they

I couldn't help but glance at him while we were having dinner. He was sitting formally in front of me, while Mom was beside him, also eating but with her phone in hand, engrossed in another K-drama.Alex was almost done with his food, but he seemed hungry, so I stood up to get more rice and barbecue for him. I placed it in front of him, and he glanced at me before taking more food. Was he that hungry when he arrived? Good thing he didn't get lost or Oliver might have directed him here.I started washing the dishes. Mom went to her room, saying she'd finish watching her show. We were surprised because she cried while we were at the dining table. She got hooked on it because of Shena. She also enjoys watching those kinds of shows. I, on the other hand, prefer Hollywood movies.I brushed the strands of hair that fell on my face. I was soaping up, too lazy to tie it up properly. Each time I bent down, my hair covered my face. Annoyed, I washed my hands and was

I slumped onto the couch, exhausted, as we arrived home. I didn't expect that we would have so many customers until closing time.I closed my eyes, finding comfort in the position I was in, and decided to take a short nap. I sensed someone quietly sitting beside me, causing a slight frown on my forehead. Yet, tiredness prevailed, and I chose not to open my eyes."Do you want a massage? I'm good at it."I shifted to my side to see where he was sitting, opening my left eye to glance at him. His head was resting on his arms, lifted from the floor, revealing a peaceful expression.My gaze focused on his nose and lips. The straightness of his nose and the natural pink of his lips caught my attention. I wasn't usually into handsome guys, as I easily get bored, but there was something about Alex's good looks that I enjoyed staring at every day. Why, though?"You're tired yourself. Maybe next time," I calmly replied.He peeked at me and

I strolled for about five hours, and I hurriedly finished cleaning inside and outside the house. People started coming around seven in the evening, and I completed my tasks by eleven.I noticed Ate Sadie passing by, so I approached her. "Ate, did you contact Kuya Anton? Aren't they done there yet? Maybe they're on their way home, so I'll just wait for them here.""Anton? He came back a while ago. He just went home briefly.""Wh-what? What time did he come back here?"She thought for a moment and looked at me. "Around nine just now. He said he'd come back to pick me up."Anxiety hit me when I heard that. He had been there for five hours and hadn't come back yet. I felt a bad vibe about this. He should be fine since his men were with him, but why did I still feel uneasy?I decided to go out and check on him. Despite the crowd outside, I didn't mind walking at night. For some unknown reason, it felt like someone was watching my ever

After he dropped off Isabella at her apartment, he told her to go to Hawaii for their first week under the contract. On the same night, he instructed some members of his security team to patrol while they were away, and his suspicion was correct: Lavinia was involved.The apartment where Isabella lived was on the verge of exploding.

Isabella Heyes Dasmond. Is this what they call the magic words? I suddenly became calm. The anger and pain from earlier slowly faded, though not entirely because I started overthinking again."You love me?"He kissed the tip of my nose. "Yes. I love you, sweetie. Please, hear me out, and I won't lie to you. I'll explain everything, okay?"I pulled away, but he shook his head to dissuade me. "No, please, Isabella. Please hear me out."Wiping away the tears that escaped my eyes, I looked at him. "Will hearing your explanation be worth my time? Will it ease the pain when I hear what you have to say?" I asked bitterly. His eyes frowned, but he held onto my hand."I-Isabella.""Let go of me, Alex. I'm tired." A hint of tears welled in his eyes upon hearing that. I avoided eye contact and wiped my damp cheeks."I'm tired of standing, so let's just sit here for a while.""Does that mean--""Start exp

Read at your own risk.We let the silent night consume our thoughts, and the only sounds we heard in our surroundings were the chirping of crickets and the insects awake at night. He was still hugging me, burying his face in my neck. I also felt that he is smelling it and I felt embarrassed, thinking I might smell sweaty. "I'm not fragrant. You've been sniffing my neck for a while now. What are you, a dog?" I teased, unable to stay still. Despite this, it didn't faze him, so I felt the warmth from his body until I was surprised to feel my back damp."Alex?" I called out."Hm?""Why do I feel wet on my back?"He gently pulled away from our embrace, and I sensed the coolness on my back. I faced him quickly and touched his face, eventually reaching his wet hair."Did you get caught in the rain? Or did you take a shower?" I touched his hair and combed it with my finger
