"Yelle?"

I startled but quickly composed myself before turning to face Kyle.

He smiled nervously. "Yelle, will you be my girlfriend?" he asked again.

I could see the sweat on his face.

I already knew what he was planning when my brother handed me the blindfold, and I already knew my answer.

I nodded and smiled. "Yes," I replied.

His eyes widened, and he shouted, "Yes!" before pulling me into a hug.

I chuckled and hugged him back, hearing my brother congratulate us in the background.

I saw James mouth the word "Congratulations!" and even raise his glass as if offering a toast.

Then he turned his attention back to the girl he was with. They seemed to be enjoying their conversation, and I even noticed him whisper something to her.

Kyle released me from our hug, and we stepped down from the stage to join my brother.

"Congratulations, Yelle! You finally have a boyfriend!" he said, teasing me with a grin.

I just smiled at him. My brother had been the one to help me decide to accept Kyle’s pr

    "James, I didn't know you'll visit!"I smiled at Denise. I had no plan on visiting them but this is the place I thought of after I woke up and found out that Yelle already left my house.Yellle often visits them to bond with her goddaughter, Tanya. But I guess she's not here. I was not drunk last night. I spotted Yelle upon entering the bar. She was drinking alone. Men are checking her out so I decided to join her. "Hey, gorgeous!" I teased her. She rolled her eyes at me which she always does. "Still a snob? I thought we were already close?" I teased her more. "Can't you see I want to be alone?!" She said sounding annoyed. "I can see that. But how many drinks did you have? You look like a mess! Were you dumped by a guy or something?" I said with concern. I admit that I didn't like her at first. I questioned her friendship with Denise. I know that she likes my brother so I can't help but be wary of her. But she prove to me that she was genuine with Denise, and unlike Jana, she w

I can't believe that I will meet him this early, not to mention he will be interviewing me. The interview finally begin. He asked me the usual questions in an interview which I answered with confidence."As I have been browsing your CVs, I have learned that your experience is more on marketing and sales. Though, I also saw your portfolio with your interior design projects. You have a stable position in your previous company, I'm curious as to why you decided to go here and apply for this position." He said in a formal but calming tone.I heaved a heavy sigh before I start to answer me. I can't mess this up. This is what I've been waiting for my whole life. "As stated in my educational background, I have a degree in interior design. But my parents wanted me to work in our company." I said as I started my speech."Oh!

He informed me that Yelle passed the interview and it was David who did the interview. Up until now, I still can't believe that Yelle has this kind of adoration in my company to the point that she was willing to move to New York just to work there.

    "Are you serious?" I asked, bewildered.James smiled. "Why? Isn't this what you want?""Y-yes," I replied, frustrated with myself for stammering.I was confused. I couldn’t understand what James was thinking. He had always made it clear he didn’t like Kyle, he often sabotaging our dates. Now, he was acting supportive of my relationship with Kyle."Are you sure? Because I can see hesitation in your eyes," James said, reverting to his usual self.I rolled my eyes. "Of course not! I've always wanted to annul our marriage. We both know we don’t love each other, this whole thing was just a result of alcohol," I defended myself.He just smiled at me."Why are you suddenly being cooperative about this?" I couldn't help but ask, needing to understand his true intentions."Simple. Now that you're getting serious with that guy, I’m confident you won’t chase after my brother when we return to the Philippines," he replied with a casual shrug.I glared at him, my anger rising at his reasoning.

    "Luther! Stop pressuring Kyle!" I understand my brother’s point. Since I’m returning to the Philippines, there’s a good chance that the relationship Kyle and I are trying to build might not work out. Besides the challenges of a long-distance relationship, Kyle has a business to take care of here in the U.S. It would be selfish of me to ask him to leave his life here to join me in the Philippines.Kyle and I aren't even official yet. My brother should stop pressuring him; he has no obligation to me or anything.My brother shrugged. "You're not a fan of long-distance relationships, Yelle," he said matter-of-factly.I rolled my eyes. "But we're not official yet! He has no responsibility to me. Besides, I still have work here in the U.S., so we can still see each other. There's no need for him to follow me to the Philippines," I argued.Kyle smiled at me, his eyes softened as he spoke. "We could make our relationship official," he said, catching me off guard.I felt both stunned and pres

    “Are you suggesting I’m playing favorites?” James’s voice cut through the tension, surprising both Athena and me.Athena and I exchanged startled glances, unaware that James had been listening.James strode over to us, fixing his gaze on Athena. "I'm sure you have an idea how we secured the mall project," he said, his voice steady and unyielding.Athena looked away, unable to respond, guilt etched across her face. She was one of the few in the company who knew about my ties to the Zobel Group of Companies—a secret James had revealed to her.James turned to the assembled employees, his voice firm yet composed. "Each one of you must understand that I never play favorites. You were all hired solely because of your capabilities and nothing else."He paused, letting his words sink in before continuing. "I will address this issue once and for all, not just for Yelle's sake but also for the company's reputation. I stand by my principles: this company will never be swayed by personal connecti

    "How was day?" My brother greeted me with a warm smile as I returned home. Since he started staying with me, it became his habit to ask about my day. In the Philippines, we rarely find the time for such conversations; our busy work schedules leave little room for personal chats. Besides, our mom insists we avoid talking about business or work when we're together. She believes our precious free time should be spent bonding with family."It was hectic," I exclaimed.Amidst the chaos at work, I couldn't help but beam with excitement. "But I have good news for you!"I found myself unable to disclose the news of my appointment as the interior designer for Zobel Mall project here in the US to him. Instead, James and Luther dominated the conversation, their voices prevailing throughout most of our interaction."What is it?" he inquired, his tone laced with gentleness."I got the Zobel project!

    Luther's POV"Yelle is seeing someone?" I was utterly stunned. Before she came to the U.S., we were all convinced she was here solely to pursue her career. We were certain she wouldn't find the time or even have the interest to date anyone. She had been so determined to make a name for herself."We didn't know about that," I added. "Yelle never mentioned him to us."James nodded, a frown crossing his face. "To be honest, I'm quite disappointed in your sister. I thought she came here to focus on her career and make a name for herself. Yet, in just a few months, she's already found someone to date."A sly grin crept across my lips. The jealousy in James's voice was unmistakable, far outweighing any hint of disappointment. I was almost certain he had a thing for my sister."On second thought," I began, aiming to lift his spirits, "since Yelle never mentioned that guy to us, I don't think she's serious about him."James breathed a sigh of relief. “I certainly hope so,” he murmured, a sha
