Arwena's gaze shifted back and forth between her mother and her son Nathan, who was happily playing with his grandfather outside the shop.She briefly glanced at Tandre, feeling uneasy that he might spot Nathan. Luckily, he was busy typing on his phone. If not for her politeness, she would have shooed him away."Aunt Lorna..." Farah called out to Arwena's mother in a pleading tone, quickly wrapping her arms around her as she approached."Arwena!"Arwena turned around abruptly when she heard her mother's sharp call. Her mother also gently patted Farah’s hand."Mom…" Arwena murmured, her gaze shifting back to Nathan and his dad.She wanted to warn them not to enter yet, but she didn’t know how to do it with Farah and Jake around."What did I just hear earlier, Arwena?" her mother asked, clearly confused.Her voice rose now, and her gaze darted between Farah and Jake, both staring blankly, unable to speak."Farah, which boyfriend did you steal, and why did it lead to a slap fight?" Lorna

“There she is, Aunt! Her expression speaks for itself! What I’ve been saying is true. She had an affair, and it’s not my fault if her relationship with Jake was ruined. She’s the one to blame, not me.”Farah continued spinning her web of lies, trying to cover up her mistakes.Arwena, speechless, could only stare at her mother—her eyes filled with disappointment as she realized her mother was starting to believe Farah’s falsehoods.She wanted to deny what Farah was saying, but the judgmental look in her mother’s eyes made her hesitate.“Arwena? Is what Farah says true? Did you leave to hide what you did? How could you? We didn’t raise you this way,” her mother asked, shaking her head repeatedly.Arwena’s heart, already shattered by the betrayal of Farah and Jake, broke even further as her mother seemed to believe Farah’s lies.What if she had spoken up sooner? Would her parents have believed her anyway? Farah would have surely twisted the truth, just as she was doing now.Arwena held h

Arwena felt dazed as Tandre led her out of the coffee shop. She could hear her mom calling her, but it was as if she had lost the ability to turn around. Her gaze remained fixed on her hand, which was being held by Tandre."Arwena, what's going on?" her dad asked in a hushed voice.Arwena felt like she had just woken up from a deep sleep. She blinked repeatedly and pulled her hand back from Tandre's grip."N-nothing," she replied, but her eyes drifted to Nathan, who was sleeping soundly in her dad’s arms. She then glanced briefly at Tandre."Good evening, sir," Tandre greeted her dad politely, though his eyes lingered on the child in his arms.Thankfully, Nathan was asleep. If he had been awake, it would have added to Arwena's worries—she was certain he would have called her "Mama."Arwena intentionally positioned herself between her dad and Tandre. She had noticed that Tandre kept staring at Nathan as if wanting to see the boy's face, which was resting against his grandfather's neck.

"Tandre," Arwena said, pulling away from Archie, her face a mixture of shock and disbelief.Archie’s jaw tightened, his hands balling into fists, visibly annoyed. He was seconds away from confronting Tandre, but his restraint—thanks to Arwena’s presence—kept him in check. If it weren't for her, Archie would have already thrown Tandre out of the coffee shop without hesitation.The two men shared a brief but intense stare. After a long moment, Archie shifted his gaze back to Arwena."Do you know him?" Archie’s voice dropped, taking on a deeper, more commanding tone that surprised Arwena. His restless eyes shifted between her and Tandre, clearly trying to gauge the situation.Arwena forced a small, strained smile. She knew this was part of their plan—Archie pretending to be her fiancé and Nathan’s father—but the awkwardness of the moment was almost too much to bear."How do you know him, Wena?" Archie’s voice grew more insistent, his frustration evident in the silence that followed her no

"Fiancée?" Tandre echoed, stunned, his fists tightening as he watched Archie gently stroke Arwena’s chest.He could have touched her back—why her chest? Fury surged within Tandre. He had no right to feel this way but couldn’t stop it. His breath quickened, and he feared he might punch Archie at any moment."Yes, she's my fiancée," Archie responded confidently. "So back off! Leave us alone!" he added, his tone dripping with arrogance relishing the jealousy eating away at Tandre.Tandre’s face reddened, his eyes narrowing with fury, but instead of storming off, he smirked and sat down in the chair beside Arwena. He wasn’t going to let anger or jealousy get the better of him."What are you doing?" Archie asked, irritated, but Tandre shot him a sharp glare.Archie realized that his brother wasn’t just emotionally stubborn but physically bold too. Tandre grasped Arwena’s hand, shamelessly stroking it just as Archie had stroked her chest."Are you alright, Arwena? Do you want me to take you

"Arwena, what is it? Are you going to stay quiet? Are you just going to let me go crazy trying to figure out what kind of special connection you have with my brother?"Archie had been repeatedly asking his friend Arwena about the "special connection" his brother mentioned.After what Archie had seen and done earlier to Tandre, Arwena was terrified. She feared Archie might use whatever he discovered against his brother, and she didn’t want Nathan to be caught in the crossfire of their sibling rivalry.“Wena, if you think I’m going to stop bugging you, think again. So you better spill if you want some peace around here,” Archie said, his voice impatient.Arwena regretted going with Archie. She hadn’t had a choice; if only she hadn’t raised her voice at her mother earlier, she and Nathan could have gone home to their place instead of ending up at Archie’s condo.She knew how relentless Archie could be. He wouldn't stop until she told him the truth.“I’ll tell you tomorrow, Archie,” Arwen

Farah’s smile widened as Tandre clasped her hand and drew her closer to his body. Though she had been the one intent on seduction, she now found herself succumbing to the magnetic pull of his presence.The simplest touch from him sent a thrilling jolt through her. Heat rose beneath her skin, and her thoughts spiraled into forbidden fantasies she could barely contain.Who wouldn’t fall for a man like Tandre? Handsome, wealthy, and utterly captivating. The thought of being with him made her pulse race. She longed to explore every inch of him, to experience the kind of pleasure she knew she’d crave forever.Sliding her arm around his, she leaned in, her voice soft and inviting. “Where are you taking me, Tandre?”Tandre’s expression remained unreadable as he cast her a brief, wordless glance.Undeterred, Farah pressed her chest against his arm, determined to shatter his calm exterior. If anyone could light the fire within him, it was her.“It’s fine if you don’t answer,” she said, her ton

"My queen," Tandre whispered as he wrapped his arms around her, his lips pressing a soft kiss to the back of her neck. His voice was tender and full of affection, and his touch made her heart skip a beat.She had been on the verge of drifting off to sleep, the peaceful lull of the night calling to her, but how could she refuse her husband, who had just returned from work and seemed determined to work his magic on her?“You smell so good, my queen,” he murmured, his voice warm and inviting, just as she turned to face him.His gaze was intense and inviting, and he bit his lower lip, his eyes dark with desire.Without thinking, her hands instinctively found their way to the back of his neck, drawing him closer.

"My queen," Tandre softly called to his wife, a gentle affection in his voice. Arwena immediately smiled, her heart warming at the sound of his words. He had been watching her for a while, patiently waiting for her to finish what she was doing. And now, with her task finally completed, he couldn't resist approaching her. Arwena shook her head with a knowing smile, fully aware of the silent longing that had been building in her husband. She knew he was eager to be close to her. He wanted to embrace her, to kiss her, but because of the warning she'd given him—that she wouldn’t join the Denovan Jewelry launch—he had held back. "Are you done?" he asked softly, his hand resting gently on her shoulder, caressing it with tenderness. Arwena responded with a sweet smile and a playful sparkle in her eyes. How could she not smile? Tandre's intentions were as clear as day. He wanted something more. He wanted to kiss her, and she could see it in the way he bit his lower lip, his gaze never le

After a deafening gunshot that made Arwena squeeze her eyes shut tightly, a series of explosions reverberated through the conference room, causing her breath to catch in her chest. Time seemed to slow as the violent sounds echoed in her ears. She was crying, but no sound came out—her mouth was open, but her voice had abandoned her. Her shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and her lips quivered as her body shook with the shock. Tandre, on the other hand, held her firmly, pressing her against him as if to shield her from the chaos. He held his breath too, certain that it was the end for them. He had accepted that it was their last day together. They remained locked in that embrace, a tense silence stretching between them, until the frantic shouting of police officers and the bomb squad’s urgent commands filled the conference room. The sharp contrast between the quiet aftermath of the explosions and the chaos of the responders was disorienting. Farah, caught completely off guard by th

“No, Wena! Don’t go in—” Tandre shouted, his voice desperate, but his plea was abruptly cut off when the cold barrel of a gun was shoved against his forehead.“Shut up!” Farah snapped, her voice trembling with rage as her finger twitched dangerously on the trigger. “You’ve been pushing me too far, Tandre! I’ve had enough of you!”“Don’t do this, Farah, please!” Tandre pleaded, his tone raw with sincerity, his eyes locking onto hers. “I’m begging you. I’ll do anything—just leave Arwena out of this.”Even as he faced the weapon aimed at him, not once did Tandre fear for his own life. His only concern was for Arwena. The mere thought of her being harmed made his chest tighten with a suffocating pain.Janica clenched her fists at his words, the weight of them stabbing into her like a cruel dagger. Hearing the man she loved beg for another woman crushed her heart, each word twisting the knife deeper.“I said shut up!” Farah’s eyes blazed with fury, her voice rising. “No amount of begging wi

“F-Farah!” Janica exclaimed, her voice trembling as though she had been jolted awake from a deep sleep by the gunshot that echoed in the room. Her lips quivered, and her wide, panicked eyes fell on the man lying lifeless and bloodied on the floor. “What the…” Her voice trailed off as she clamped her hands over her ears, trying to block out the deafening chaos. Her gaze darted around the room, searching for an explanation. Her breath hitched as her eyes landed on Tandre, crouched on the floor, his fists clenched so tightly his knuckles turned white. The veins in his arms bulged, a silent testament to his barely contained fury. She wanted to scream, to lash out at Farah for her brutality. The man Farah had mercilessly shot was innocent, unrelated to their petty grievances and unending hatred. “How…?” Janica’s voice cracked as the words faltered. Shaking her head in disbelief, her eyes welled with tears. Her gaze lingered on the bloodstained hole in Tandre’s suit, and her trembl
