"That's ridiculous!" Xavier exclaimed, clearly offended by the accusation. "Andy would never do anything to hurt any of us, especially not his own father! He might be just as surprised as we are by Lisa's actions. Andy might not even know what's going on with her."

Xavier might be angry with his son but he couldn't help but defend him; no parents would stand their child being ridiculously judged!

Neil and Fred exchanged a look, still not sure what to believe. On the one hand, it seemed unlikely that Andy would be involved in something like this. But on the other hand, it was hard to explain Lisa's behavior any other way.

"You might not know this but Neil and I pleaded with Andy to help talked things out with Lisa but he turned us down instantly, Xavier!" Fred blurted out. "He stood there, watching Lisa's security officers dragged us out like criminals. Andy called those officers on us!"

Xavier sighed in defeat as he recalled the scenario at the board room with Andy presence but he did

    The meeting was supposed to have hold two hours earlier but due to the little scenario that happened, Lisa had the meeting adjourned and let the fuss die down for a while. Lisa walked into the conference room, taking her seat at the head of the table. As the new chairwoman and owner of Dela Cruz groups, she was determined to lead the company back to the top of the market. The board members sat around the table, waiting for her to begin."Good afternoon, everyone." Lisa began, her voice calm but firm. "I want to thank you all for being here today to discuss how we can restore Dela Cruz groups from collapsing finally and bring it back to the top where it belongs."She looked around the room, meeting each person's eyes. The reaction on their faces were just the same as she heard expected, she nodded slowly then started at a slide presentation."As you all know..." She continued, maintaining the same fame tone. "We need to rebuild our reputation, and I have come up with a plan of action.

    Rosy was seated with her legs crossed as she slowly sips the drink she's holding in her hand, trying to suppress the look of impatience that's delineated on her face. At several intervals, she scanned her surrounding but got disappointed yet again.She stared at her wrist watch, it was way past midnight and she wondered why Alex hasn't shown up yet. Rosy was furious to think Alex was sitting her down on purpose, alone without himself or anyone else."Hey, pretty..." A guy on suit approached Rosy, a small smile on his face. She raised her head slowly to meet his gaze, her brows furrowed. "What's a pretty lady like you doing here, sitting alone?""..." Rosy only stared at him for few seconds without saying anything and returned her gaze to her drink, trying to pretend he wasn't there in the first place."Did you come with someone or maybe you are waiting for someone?" He pestered, his voice sounds calm but flirtatious —he did not give her a second to reply him before speaking again. "We

    "I probably did not tell you but Lisa had disappeared from my house after signing the divorce papers." Alex told Rosy, letting out a deep sigh afterward. "It's been almost two weeks now —I think it's the day after she came to the hospital."Rosy smiled inwardly, truly, the piece of information Alex had shared worth the time she had used in waiting for his arrival —it was as though a rock-like roadblock had just been lifted off her path miraculously after months of trying without any yielding results."That's a good news for us, Alex." She announced, displaying her white dental sheepishly. "There is no hindrance to us finally being together anymore —Lisa has left, and now it's just the two of us. Don't you agree?"Alex find himself sighing again, not sure if he's supposed to be happy as Rosy; he doesn't even know if it's truly a good news. Lisa suddenly leaving him and disappearing without traces was bothering enough, coupled with the fact that he left him something he never thought sh

    Even though he was driving, Alex's mind wandered faraway with different thoughts running through his head. As his mind raced back to what happened earlier between himself and Rosy, he wondered what he was thinking to have rejected her offer without a thinking it twice. He believed he loved Rosy and wanted to be with her always -but for the rest of his life? He wasn't sure about it.“...It's not even up to a month since my last marriage ended, I can't jump into another one...”was this even enough reason to turn Rosy's proposal down just like that? Or is there something more to his rejection that even himself can't pinpoint. Alex ran his left hand through his head, frustration visible on his face —coupled with the eye bags under his eyes because he isn't getting enough sleep since Lisa had left, he looked horrible. He tried to think of something; anything that could justify his action but nothing was to be held accountable, this was just a foolish move on his part. He got home at almo

    Mrs. Williams sighed loudly as she rubbed her temple in frustration. She didn't even know what to do to stop Alex from seeing Rosy, it was as though Rosy bewitched her son and things had got even more complicated than she thought since he started seeing Rosy again; it just a matter of time before her son rebel against her.She shook her head sideways, as if to push the thought off her head. She won't sit back and watch her son rebel against her all for a woman —something needs to be done to stop him before he goes out of control.Mrs. Williams breathed in slowly, her expression going stern afterward. "For you to right your wrongs, you will have to look for Lisa by all means, I don't care how far you have to go to win her back." She said sternly. "That way, I'll see you as a grown up and let you be!"Alex's eyes widened as though he heard something outrageously strange. "What did you say?" He blurted out, his shocked expression suddenly turn to that of anger in a split second. "I shoul

    *LATER IN THE DAY, SIX HOURS TO BE PRECISE*Alex came of his room to the living, wearing a sweatpants and a sleeveless shirt. He seems as though he just woke up from a deep slumber as he wiped his tired hands with the back of his hands slowly. "You aren't going to work today, Alex?" His mother, who has been patiently waiting for him to come out of his room, asked as soon as she saw him. "Did you announce a general holiday to your staffs or something?""Well..." Alex started slowly, shrugging his shoulders. "Why should I go to work when I'm going to stop soon? I'm trying to learn how to spend the day lazying around without doing anything.""What do you mean?" She asked, her brows creased. "Why are you stopping work soon?"Alex picked up the remote control on the table and switched the television on, sitting on the couch next to him. "Didn't you said you have to take everything away from me to leave Rosy?" He asked casually. "Well, this is my answer, I won't leave her no matter what

    Mrs. Williams had returned to Alex's house earlier than he has thought, his initial thought was that his mother had left his house finally for hers but seeing her return wasn't something he expected; it's not even up to an hour since she left —why is she back?"Did you forget something here, mother?" He asked, his question sounding as his own way of welcoming his mother but Mrs. Williams did not say anything in reply as she stood a few feet away from him, sparing him an unknown look. "It doesn't seems like you forgot something, are you crashing in here then? For tonight? For the main time do you can watch me closely?"Mrs. Williams snickered, taking a seat before Alex. "Don't be silly with those insensible questions you are asking." She remarked, a sly smile tugging at the corner of her lips. "If I want to watch you, I don't have to stay with you. I can watch you closely even though I'm faraway, I've been doing this since you were a child.""I'm sorry, my bad!" Alex blurted out, sarca

    Just then, the door creaked opened, revealing his mother. Alex eyes widened in shock, staring at her. As his heart skipped at the sight of his mother, he couldn't help but wonder how much she has heard. That moment, he forgot his house was sound proofed and his mother would never had heard said those to Rosy.“Has she been eavesdropping on me...?”Alex thought within himself, glued to the same spot he was as he stared at his mother blankly. His heart was racing like a kid whose parents were scolding. Alex hoped that she heard nothing, he will only appear as a weakling before his mother —and that's one of the things he dreaded the most.Mrs. Williams was surprised at how Alex was suddenly looking at her, her brows were furrowed with a look of displeasure on her face. "You don't stare at me in such a foolish manner." His mother sternly. Alex quickly composed himself and turned away from his mother. "Did you forget how to look at your mother respectfully?

    As she sat, deep in thought, a sudden buzz broke her concentration. A notification appeared on her phone, with a message from her former fiancé, David."Why is he sending me a message out of the blue?" She muttered within herself as she unlocked her phone to read the message, feeling a mixture of anxiety and curiosity. She read the message, and her breath caught in her throat.Sarah stared at the message sent to her, her curiosity suddenly turned into a mixture of anger and sadness. It reads, 'I can't believe you are such a gold digger, Sarah! This was your plan all along? To ditch me, leave me in disgrace at the altar, and go after the president because he's loaded, isn't he?'Sarah gritted her teeth in fury as she read the message further. 'You are such a cheap slut, but I promise you, Sarah, that I won't go down without a fight! Be on your best guard because tonight, I'm giving you the biggest surprise of your life...!'David's words cut through her like a knife, the fact that he go

    Sarah, a name now acknowledged and recognized in the journal of the nation's political context, stood as the center of an exceptional sight, surrounded by glaring lights, loud and noisy voices, and examining eyes from the press, reflecting a model of the public.Amidst the lights and noisy surroundings, the press that managed to get close to her probed her with questions, their eyes gleaming with excitement. She was their new prey - the fact that she was the first Lady made things more interesting for them.For the first time since her marriage with the president, she had only stepped out for a moment to look around and probably get used to her new environment but things did not turn out as she thought would be.As though the press was keeping a close watch on her and monitoring her movement - maybe someone had tipped them off her whereabouts, they hovered around her like flies, trapping her down in the same spot.Microphones and other instruments used by the press were pointed in her

    As Sarah stood at the altar to exchange marital vows with the president, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. It was as if time had slowed down, and everything around her was moving in slow motion.The guests, the priest, the groom - they all seemed to be moving at a fraction of the speed she was used to. Everything felt surreal as if she was in a dream. But she knew this was real. This was her wedding day - another wedding she was holding in that same week she ditched the first one.The priest's words drifted through the air as if they were carried by the wind. "Do you, Sarah, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do you part?"As the words of the vow hung in the air, Sarah felt her heart skip a beat. It was like everything had stopped, and it was just her and the president in the world. She looked into his eyes, a

    Sarah had never seen him before which made her curiosity piqued, her gaze on the parcel he stretched out to her. Though she was tempted to take the parcel from him, she still hesitated as though she was contemplating taking the parcel from him.His unusual warm smile spread wider, urging her to take it from him. Seeing how much she was hesitating, he squatted down to her height, opened her palms, and placed the parcel on them."For you..." He uttered, still wearing his unusual warm smile. His voice was calm but far from the regular manly voice Sarah had heard."What's in the parcel?" She asked, directing her gaze from the man to the parcel in her palms before raising her gaze to meet the man's. "-and why are you giving it to me?""I can read the curiosity in your eyes, lady." He responded quietly, maintaining his calm tone. "Why don't you feed your curiosity by checking it out yourself?"Sarah said nothing in reply and did as the man had suggested. She opened the parcel and couldn't be

    Alone on the serene and deserted beach, Sarah sat on the sandy shore, the waves crashing against the beach as if echoing her inner turmoil. The sunset on the horizon in its warm hue of orange failed to bring comfort to the despair that hung over her like a chute.Her eyes were red and swollen, heavy with the weight of sorrow and betrayal. Tears painted her face, the hurt as vast as the sea itself and heavy as a lead. Yet underneath the sorrow was an underlying sense of trepidation - a thought that wasn't born out of hope but out of fear of continuing to live.Sarah ought to be grateful that she found out about them before the knot was tied between herself and David - how worse would it be if things started to unfold after her wedding?Sarah stood up abruptly and walked closer to the beach, shutting other thoughts off her head and mind. She stared intensely into the raging waves of the waster as thoughts of suicide attempts swirled in her mind, tempting her to end the painful game she f

    Gerald was pushed aggressively back into the prison, and the warder locked the gate immediately, throwing the keys into his pocket. Gerald hissed in pain as he forcefully hit his knee on the cold floor, bruising it in the process.“I wonder how long you are going to last here with the nonchalant attitude you are putting on, man!” The warder scowled disapprovingly at him, resting lazily on the gaze. “You won't even last three months here —you will be lucky if you do.”Gerald's eyes widened in shock. Three months…? That's a whole lot of time to be detained in a prison, how is he supposed to cope in this kind of surrounding for that long period of time without even knowing his offense? The thought of spending three months locked up in a cell was terrifying as it made his stomach dropped.It was hard to imagine being stuck in such a small space for so long, with nothing to do and no one to talk to. Gerald tried to think of ways to pass the time, but his mind kept returning to the same thou

    Gerald's eyes blazed in fury as he banged his hands dangerously on the table, separating them from each other. “I rather remain in this hole than be at your mercy or listen to your petty orders! You can't make me do your bidding!” He growled at her.“Tsk, tsk!” Aunt Elsie twitched her nose in disappointment, unmoved by his rage or threats. “Then what would happen to Lisa? I told you; that your reaction and obedience will determine Lisa's fate, didn't I?”“What are you going to do to Lisa?” Gerald demanded, his heart beating against his rib cage. He couldn't bear the thought of anything happening to her. “Tell me what you want, and I'll do it. Just don't hurt her.”Aunt Elsie's lips stretched into a thin smile, she was loving the desperation in Gerald's eyes —he's the perfect pawn in the game. “I'm glad to see that you're willing to cooperate.” She said, satisfaction evident in her tone. “You're a smart man, Gerald, I think we can work well together.”Gerald hated the way she was talkin

    Aunt Elsie smiled broadly, she was right about him. Only someone like him will be needed —he had managed to read her perfectly without getting close to her. She was impressed, and that will only make her want him more.“I don't bargain, yeah…" She uttered, admitting to his words. “—but I'm ready to do so, if it'll please you.”“What do you mean by that?” he asked, his curiosity piqued. “Why would you change your usual tactics just to please me? What do you want from me?”Aunt Elsie's smile widened, she was glad he didn't bite her head off this time —instead, she loved the curiosity in his eyes; that was what she wanted from him anyway, not otherwise.“I've found myself smitten with you, Gerald.” She replied, her voice taking a different turn. “And I would do anything to get what I want from you —I'm not afraid of bargaining this time because I know what I want, and I want it badly.”Gerald was no in for her twist and turns, he wanted her to say whatever thing she's got for him and let
