Pretend?" Xenon asked. "Right. Don't worry. I know what's real and what's not, and I know not to fall in love. It's all just a show as it's intended to be from the very beginning, right?" Miya said casually. "I know when she comes back, I will be gone." Xenon knitted his brows harder and questioned, "Do you think about leaving all the time?Well. Do you expect me to share my husband with other women? You won't love me anyway. I'm just a replacement." Xenon wanted to say something, but he hesitated a bit and went quiet. He knew that it was true that if Sol did come back, he would surely ask Miya to leave. His silence confirmed what Miya said, and she smiled a helpless smileXenon picked up the peach with a grumpy face and threw it into the bin. "Carve a different one. Something nice." He said and changed the subject.Miya got an apple from the plate and started peeling it. She found it difficult to concentrate as the thought that she was merely a replacement haunted her mind. "Ouch.

Anyway, I've come to City X with the intention of cooperating with you, Mr. Xenon Uba, so I've done some research and preparation. I've only found out that Mr. Xenon Uba has once given up the inheritance of The Uba Corporation for a woman, but I don't know who the lucky woman is." Chris explained indifferently. Xenon released his grip, disappointed. Chris took another look at Miya and turned around to leave. "Get well soon." He said as he walked out of the room.Silence filled the room. Xenon glanced at Miya, who was sitting on the bed quietly. "What's between you two? Isn't he too concerned about you?"Miya looked up at him with a helpless smile. "Not as much as you are about her," she said sarcastically. "Don't you speak to me like that?" Xenon said sternly."Sorry. I forgot that I'm just a replacement." Miya looked away and, with great effort to not show her sadness, said as calmly as she could, "I've only seen him a couple of times. He saved me once, and he sheltered me once."

Xenon, but I love you. I will do anything for you. Why don't you see? Why don't you have feelings for me at all? Don't you see how much better I am than Sol and Miya! I'm better looking than them; I'm better educated, and I'm from a better family..." Sophia said emotionally. "Shut up!" Xenon snapped. Frightened, Sophia stopped immediately. Why did I mention Sol?! Stupid me! She cursed quietly. "I'm sorry, Xenon. I didn't mean to mention Sol. But I, I just don't understand why you married Miya! She's just a nobody girl..."Miya was just about to come in with the well-prepared lunch and heard Sophia talking. She stopped at the door, hesitating if she should go in or leave."What are you doing at the door? Come in." Xenon demanded.Miya pouted her lips and muttered, "Yes." She put the food down on the table and asked, "Am I interrupting you? Should I leave you two alone?" Xenon tapped her head and said, "Are you Mrs. Uba, or is she?" Miya smiled and said, "Me, of course." She sat do

She took the escalator upstairs to see a slim young girl with long hair gazing at Xenon, who stood still, looking disappointed and impatient. Then she looked at the girl again and noticed that though she was of a very similar figure as herself and their face is a bit similar, but not so alike. "Mrs. Miya Uba? Why are you here?" Levi spotted Miya and asked.Xenon turned around and glanced at Miya with a frown."Why? Am I not allowed? I'm simply curious to see what Mr. Xenon Uba's angel looks like. She's very pretty indeed. I shall leave them alone now.""What are you talking about?" Xenon said impatiently.Managing to hide the bitter feelings in her heart, Miya said with a smile, "No worries. Just send me the divorce agreement whenever it's ready, and I will sign it straight away." She turned around to leave. "Stop." Xenon snapped. "What else would you like to do for you, Mr. Xenon Uba?" Miya spoke as calmly as she could. "You think you can just come and go as you like?" "Well, do

When he finally released her from his eager kisses, he carried her down the stairs into the car. Levi quickly followed, holding an umbrella for them. Xenon sat Miya down on his l.a.p in the car, but Miya fixed her eyes upon the window, looking at the fierce storm silently. When they arrived at the hospital, Xenon carried her to the room and put her down on the bed. "Your wound is open again. It's bleeding. Did you do it on purpose? Huh? Can't you just take better care of yourself?""I, I was running to..." Miya pouted her lips and looked at him with tearful eyes. "I was in a hurry to watch a good show, wasn't I? Sadly, it was very disappointing." She said sarcastically.Xenon frowned and looked at her angrily, but seeing her tearful eyes and rosy cheeks, he couldn't get mad at her. Instead, he shouted at the bodyguards at the door. "Get the nurse here right now!" "Yes." The chief bodyguard hurried off. Within minutes, two nurses and a doctor rushed in. "Mr. Xenon Uba, what can we

Huh?" Miya thought he was to blame her. It was a question she didn't expect at all. "I, I don't know. I can't remember." "Tell me the truth," Xenon said calmly and genuinely. Miya pouted her lips and refused to answer. Xenon pinched her chin and said, "You are jealous, aren't you?" "No. I know what I am to you. There's no point to..." Miya was shocked by his question, but she denied it instantly."Tell me why. Why are you jealous of her?" He went on.Miya wanted to escape from his gaze and from his questioning, but she couldn't. She wanted to deny it again, but tears filled her eyes again despite herself. "I... She's the one you love. You can't forget her.""True, but what has it got to do with you?" Xenon pursued.Miya closed her eyes, and tears ran down her cheeks. "I just feel upset. Am I not allowed to be upset?" "Why are you upset?" Xenon was persistent. "Why do I have to tell you why?" "Because I asked," Xenon said plainly. "I...I... because... because even though you ar

Seeing her tearful eyes and cheekily stubborn look, Xenon smiled and suddenly kissed her on her lips. Miya couldn't mutter another word, and she stared at him with her eyes wide open, in disbelief. "You are not getting out of this bed unless you say it," Xenon said clearly, forcing her to say something he wanted to hearShe struggled to break free from him while giving a strong retort, "You are ridiculous!" Xenon doesn't want to let her go, and he's teasing her this moment, "So I am."Miya was speechless. She couldn't believe what she heard from him. This man was so overbearing that he always demanded everything he wanted her to do or say. "I will give you 10 thousand dollars if you say it." Xenon offered, trying to coax her. Again she stubbornly replied, "No! No! No!" "100 thousand dollars?" His voice rang again, forcing her to confess. Annoyed by his stupid coaxing, again she said. "No! Stop this stupid game of yours,""1 million?" He increased his offer while looking into he

I know one day when his lover will return, that would be the last day I'm staying by his side. She sneered at herself and kissed him passionately. Why not? He's great in bed. Even though he is so demanding and often makes me sad, he never fails most of his promises, and Mom is getting better. He gives me money and helps me with my career! Ha-ha. Who am I to talk about love, to talk about dignity? Don't be so pathetic! Love is a luxury that I can't afford.Her sudden change and passion startled Xenon, and soon, he returned with more passionate kisses. Her unusual reaction of intensity and strong d.e.s.i.r.e surprised him, and later, he noticed the tears running down her cheeks, and the pillow was wet. He acknowledged it, but he didn't do anything about it.He didn't need t

Two days later, Levi knocked at Chris' office door, carrying a bag of doc.u.ments and photos. "Come in," Xenon said, his eyes fixed on his laptop, trying to focus on work and not to think about Miya."Good Morning, Mr. Uba. Here are some doc.u.ments and photos of Mrs. Miya Uba." Levi handed Xenon the bag. "Have you spoken to her mother?" Xenon asked. He somehow felt that he was going to discover something that would change everything.Yes. I have. There was something in particular that I think you should probably know. It happened when Mrs. Miya Uba was about eight years old." Xenon looked up at Levi, surprised, expecting. "According to Mrs. Sue Loran, Mrs. Uba had a fever when she was around eight years old and lost part of her memories." Levi went on. "Did she say how and why?" Xenon asked eagerly. "She said Mrs. Uba had fallen into icy water that winter and caught a bad cold. She also mentioned that she probably had the accident of saving a stranger, but she had never seen th

The next few days, Xenon and Miya hardly saw or spoke to each other. Xenon had arranged a few more bodyguards to keep Miya safe. He felt that he needed some time for himself. The moon was up in the clear sky. Standing at the balcony, looking at the moonlit garden, with a cigarette in his hand, Xenon recalled the last few months spent with Miya, from the first time he saw her drugged and vulnerable outside the lift at Turn On Bar to the time when she risked her life to save him and the other day when she tried to take Chris' punch for him. There was a voice telling him that he had grown attached to and even fallen in love with her. He had to admit to himself that he missed her though he was the one that decided to have a break. As he pictured her face in his head, he suddenly thought of the little girl that saved him on the icy winter day again. Why do I always relate her to the little girl? Sol is the girl that saved me, not Miya. He thought to himself, then an idea occurred to him

Xenon dragged Miya into his office angrily and slammed the door shut. All the secretaries stared in disbelief. Though everyone was curious, no one dared to utter a word. He threw Miya onto the sofa and looked at her furiously, "No lies. Why were you at the restaurant with Chris Butler?!"Miya held his stare with her lips pouted. She remained silent.Xenon suddenly sat down next to her and pinned her down on the sofa, with his face right above hers, glaring at her threateningly. "Tell me." Miya felt that she had done nothing wrong and Xenon was being unfair. She heaved a sigh and said plainly, "He said he knows where my mum is, and he threatened me, so I had to go see him. You and Sol Keaton arrived just two minutes after I got there. I didn't know you were coming." Xenon looked into her eyes for a while as if to confirm if she was lying, then he got up, walked over to his desk, with his back facing her, and said, "I will take care of your mother. Now you can go back to work." Miya

Miya acknowledged what Chris said but made no reply. She was literally dragged away by Xenon. He walked faster and faster, and she had to rush to catch up. At one point, she almost twisted her ankle, but she bore the pain and said nothing. The bodyguard held the door open for them, and Xenon pushed Miya into the car rather violently and slammed the door shut.Miya shivered, frightened. She rubbed her ankle gently and accidentally saw through the window that Sol was running after them. She stumbled and almost fell over, but Xenon went over to her quickly and held her arm.Seeing that she was struggling with her twisted ankle, Xenon lifted Sol up and carried her to the car. It hurt Miya to see how much Xenon cared about Sol. It's obvious who he really loves. He won't divorce me only because he's being possessive. He doesn't want other men to have me.Xenon's phone rang. The bodyguard helped answer the phone and held it by Xenon's ear. "Mr. Uba, our team has studied the record of the

Both Xenon and Chris' bodyguards stood aside and watched cautiously. There was only limited space in the room, and even if the bodyguards wanted to help, they couldn't squeeze in. There were a few times when Miya felt fists flying right next to her cheek, and her heart was racing fast, frightened. Miya had learned how good Xenon was, and she was very impressed, but little did she expect Chris, who seemed so calm and elegant, to be another Kong Fu master. Hugging Miya with one arm, Xenon wasn't as swift as Chris, and suddenly, Chris threw a fierce punch towards Xenon. Miya screamed and held up her palms, intending to block Chris's punch.Both Xenon and Chris were shocked, and at the very same time, Chris retreated his fist while Xenon covered Miya's hands with his. That brought an end to the fight. "Didn't you want to leave me? Why did you try to take the punch for me then?" Xenon chuckled and teased. "I, I didn't mean to...it just happened," Miya explained feebly."Didn't you?" Xe

They arrived at one of the best high-end restaurants in town. Chris was looking out of the window, enjoying the view while waiting. He heard the door open and Miya's footsteps. Without turning around, he said quietly, "I'm glad you made it here." "Mr. Butler, why did you pay for my mum's treatment? I don't want to be in debt to you or anyone.""You are not. I have my own intentions." He replied without giving her any further explanation. "What do you mean?" Puzzled, Miya asked him again. Chris looked at her, smiled, and said, "No worries. I just want to see you and buy you lunch." "I have no appetite." She refused his offer. "Ah. It's alright. I do. Two more people are coming, by the way." "Who?" Miya snapped. "Take a seat. You will find out soon." Chris stood up, pulled out a chair for Miya, and gestured to her to sit down. Miya felt more worried, but knowing that there was no way she could leave without Chris' consent, she obeyedDid you finish the books I gave you?" Chris

Xenon bent down immediately to check. "You ok? Did you hurt your ankle?" Sol nodded. "I'm afraid so." Then she had a glance at the secretaries' office and saw that Miya could see them clearly. "Oh. Silly me. I shouldn't have worn heels." She said regretfully.Xenon put one arm around Sol's back and the other under her knees and lifted her up, so Sol wrapped her arms around his neck. "Xenon, I think I can manage. I'm worried that your staff will think it inappropriate to see you carrying me like this.""Inappropriate?" Xenon knitted his brows and marched towards the lift. "Whoever thinks it inappropriate should get fired." He said it aloud. As soon as the secretaries saw them get into the lift, everyone exclaimed, and soon gossip followed. Everyone saw and heard clearly how much Xenon cared about Sol, including Miya, especially when Sol smiled at her victoriously over Xenon's shoulder.She didn't need to do that. Everyone knows she's the one that Xenon loves anyway. Miya thought. Al

Miya was startled. She had forgotten the fact that she and Sol looked like. "No, she's not my sister." She shook her head. "But my goodness, you two look just the same." Jodie looked at Miya, then at Sol, and back at Miya, in disbelief.Sol had a closer look at Jodie, noticing her attire and her pretty face. She asked cautiously, with a smile, "Who are you, may I ask?" "Jodie Field. I work here. And you?" "Sol Keaton." "Nice to meet you. Do you work here as well?" "No, not yet. Perhaps in the future. I'm here to see Xenon." "To see Xenon? Mr. Uba? You know him well?" Jodie looked at her suspiciously. "Yes. I want to keep him company." "Huh? What do you mean? He's got his wife to keep him company." Jodie said matter-of-factly. Nice one, Jodie. Miya thought gratefully. Sol looked displeased at first, then she smiled and replied, "The thing is, his wife isn't the one he loves. I am. Those who are just a replacement will have to leave sooner or later now that I'm back." Jodie po

Irritated, he turned around and glared at Miya, "What do you want, huh? You were just saying you are jealous of Sol, and now you want to leave me." Miya smiled a helpless smile. "What do I want? Mr. Xenon Uba, I've told you that I love you, but we can't be together, can we? What do you expect me to do? To be your secret lover to humiliate me? And shouldn't you be loyal to Miss Keaton?"He didn't like seeing her smile. It upset and angered him at the same time. Without another word, he turned around and left. "Will you let me leave? Make up your mind, please..." Miya muttered.Xenon hurried back to his room. He didn't have an answer. Feeling helpless and hopeless, Miya collapsed onto the bed and stared at the ceiling all night long. She didn't get up till the maid knocked at her door in the morning to ask her to have breakfast. Seeing the tired and drawn face of herself in the mirror, she pinched her cheeks and said to herself, "Come on, Miya! This is not you! Cheer up. Life goes on
