Gwyneth’s POV
"Please look after my son. You know how important this day to me, right?" I said to my child's nanny as I saw her heading her way to our room.
"No problem, Ma'am. I'll take care of him. Best regards!" she responded and took Jase from me.
"Please be good to your nanny, okay? Mama will just remarry your Dad and I'll be back after, okay?"
My little boy just chuckled as if he understood what I just said.
I left the hotel room and went to the other room, where all the guests were arranged. It's my wedding day! Re-wedding to be exact. But my son Justine will not be here. He still have exams to take on and maybe he could book a flight after three months from now. Despite his busy sched, he never failed to congratulate me and his Dad.
as soon as I went inside, they all had him — he was doing. Everyone looked at
Kalex’s POV[Flashback]"Kalex, be ready. We will head back to the States by tomorrow," Dad said while I am busy with my stuff."All of a sudden? Is there something wrong?" I asked him.It's strange that he decided of going back to States without telling me first."I will arrange your wedding with Gwyn. You already know her, right?"My heart almlst jump in happiness. I couldn't even believe if he was telling me the truth. He has no idea how much I wanted to marry the girl of my dream. It's been a while since I saw her, and if ever Dad is telling me the truth, then I'll be the luckiest man ever live on earth.But what if Gwyn doesn't want to marry me? I cannot just force her to marry me because that's selfishness. I do not want her to get the wrong idea because we've been a good friend before not until I flew abroad. 
Kalex’s POV[Flashback still]We're both busy that day. We just talked when he invited me to Renzo's farewell party, her cousin. I agreed, I will just finish all my work. And Renzo is also a friend, so why not?I couldn't help but be curious when I looked at Gwyn's phone. Lots of messages from different people. I only met a few. I couldn’t help but worry and be jealous. He can be taken away from me at any time, and that scared me."Don't do it first, in case our relationship doesn't work I have a back-up." He joked. But to me, thousands of arrows hit.The hell? Why do we need back-up? I will not let our relationship not work.because of jealousy I could not do anything if I did not take his phone and feel it. I deleted those who messaged him that I did not know. Fuck off dude.She gets mad because of what I did. And I feel sorry about it."I'm sorry if I make you mad ...sorry for make you feel un
Gwyneths POV8 years ago,"Gwyn," I turned to the man who called my name. He was cheerful and playful, but now, he just looks serious and doesnt have any streak of excitement. I ignored him and just drank from the glass of wine I was holding.this is his condo unit so even though I don't want a partner, I have no right to evict him. He has a house so he rarely comes here. He entrusted the other key of this unit to me because he knew there were times, I just wanted to be alone."It was you, wasn't it?" He asked. Of course, he knows. He knew that I was the only one who could do that to Maureen. Which I don't even regret doing because that's just his thing. He kidnapped the man who should have been for me."Yes, I am. So?" He massaged his temple. She sighed and sat down next to me.I hired a p
Gwyneth's POVIt's good to start in a place you don't know. Being in a different country gives me the freedom of starting a new life, away from the prying eyes of those people whom I thought I knew, but did nothing but to judge the hell out of me.Sir Ferdie-our manager- gave me a wide smile as I entered his office. He's warm and charming even at the age of fifty years old. I've met his wife and she's just as lovely. In fact, his family is cute. They are also Filipino, as much as possible because this hotel prefers to employ Filipinos because the owner is also Filipino."Gwyn, I have good news." Wow. The last time he called me in his office he also said that line and the next thing I knew, I was promoted. I smiled at him. "You're getting a promotion."I was stunned. Again? Immediately? It was as if I could already hear the resentme
Gwyneth's POVI was currently lying on the sofa, simply chilling and feeling the ambiance of our new home. Mom told me earlier that we will be living in this enormous mansion. I couldnt feel anything but just a pure excitement. Who wouldnt?Hey?I was taken aback when someone called my attention, making me sit up straight and gaze to the boy whom I guess the same age as me.Im Kalex, he introduced himself but I was mesmerized by his dazzling feature.Hes too handsome to be true. I love his visual.Call me Gwyn. I smiled back. Well, first impression last and I dont want to make him feel I am rude.He sat down next to me, and smiled even more. I also noticed that he has this natural light brown hair, which I think because he has a race. I am not sure though.Are you Aunt Elmas daughter? I simply nodded
Gwyneths POVHe froze when he saw me, and so I am. I dont know but it feels like as if my heart beats faster than the usual. I couldnt speak nor move. Its just that, my world seems to slow down and cant be able to move my gaze away from staring at him.The elevator door automatically closed so he then pressed the button to prevent it from closing. He never averted his eyes to other direction, just on mine. We stayed like that for a few seconds and when I finally composed my mind and self, I then bowed down, showing my respect because hes my boss after all and Im just his employee.Gwyn,Yes, sir? I formally asked, thinking that he needs something from me the reason why he called me.Oh sir, good you even caught up with Miss Gwyn. She's the event organizer sent by the Moonlight hotel." Alex approached behind him, making him shifted his eyes to my friend.&
Gwyneths POVSeveral years agoWhy is she even close to Kalex? Shes just nothing by a complete mess. I heard someone whispered to the girl she was with, behind me.Its pretty obvious that she was pertaining to me but I just let it passed and didnt mind them. What else would I get if I were to answered back and defend myself?Know your place, b*tch!I was taken aback when the other mean girl suddenly walked past me and intentionally pushed my harshly, making me almost slumped on the hallway, but thank God, I managed to maintain my balance.I stared at their back as they make their way, and after a few seconds, I continued walking on the way to the cafeteria. I bother not to fight back and chose not to cause any mess. They wont do me any good anyway.Hey! Kalex greeted me with a sm
Gwyneths POVI was walking on the street, sipping a coffee while eyes on phone as I read my sons message to me. I went out for a while just to buy a coffee because I dont feel like tasting the coffee on our cafeteria. I smiled when I saw Jases message. Looks like he aced his exam once again."Gwyn!"I turned around to see whos yelling my name but I see no one. Aish. I continued walking but I didnt expect to hear my name for the second time. "Gwyn!!" This time, its louder compared earlier. Just like what I did, I turned again to check if who the it is.I dont see anyone but the voice is somewhat familiar."Gwyneth!"I stopped on my track when I saw Maureen running towards me. What the h*ll this b*tch is doing on here? I was about to nagged her when she suddenly jumped out of excitement and hugged me so tight. "I miss you so much. Where were you all
Gwyneth’s POV"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Local time is ten past three in the afternoon and the temperature is 25 degrees Celsius ..."I can't help but to feel all the excitement as the crew announced that our plane landed. I've been peeking out the window for a while now because I really want to set foot in the Philippines again. It has only been six months, but it feels like forever since the day I've been here. I was excited to see Jase and Kalex. We video called almost every night and they also went to see me at Christmas. They stayed there for the whole holidays but it's not enough to compensate my longing for the two.The hard battle of homesickness!"Have a nice stay ma’am!" one of the crew greeted me before I went down on the plane. I gave her a smile.When I got off the plane, I went straight to a bus that the staff p
Gwyneth’s POVI woke up with the clamorous knocking on my door. I looked at my clock; it's already 11 in the evening. Who would bother to visit me at this time? I don’t even know why I was on my out to see me at this hour when in fact I still had to sleep because my flight will be early tomorrow at five in the morning. I was still yawning while rubbing my eyes as I walk to the door."Gwyn! Gwyneth! Are you there?!" My yawning stopped and my eyes widened when I heard Kalex's loud voice. I immediately ran towards the door thinking that something might have happened to Jase."Kalex?" he was sweating and gasping as he put his hands on his knees to support himself. He's wearing his usual sleeping clothes, his jersey short and a white cotton shirt. "What are you doing here? Why are you gasping?""I ... took ... the ... stairs." He said as his chest is heaving from the gasps. It took me a second
Kalex’s POV"What's up?" Demitri asked as he sits in front of me. I asked him if he could come because I needed someone to talk to. I need someone who could knock some sense out of me. "Where's Jase?""Upstairs. Sleeping." I replied before I took a sip from the glass of whiskey in my hand. I know he's waiting for me to start talking but I fucking don't know where to fucking start."It's about Gwyneth, isn't it?" He asked when I didn't say anything. My chest tightened by the mere sound of her name. I miss her. I miss calling out her name and how she smiles at me in the morning."She's ... she's leaving tomorrow." I said in a low voice as I remember what she said five days ago. I don't even know how long she'll be gone. I was afraid to ask.My mind went crazy by just the thought of her leaving with that fucker and all I ever said to her was that she doesn't need to worry ...
Kalex’s POV"Mommy you're going with us tomorrow, right?" Jase asked Gwyn again as he draws on his book. I peeked at my son's ipad to see Gwyn's face. She's as beautiful as ever."Yes baby, how many times have you asked me that already? You silly kid!" I can't help but to chuckle as I chop the vegetables for our dinner. Jase quickly glanced at me and grinned."I'm just reminding you mommy in case you forget." I shook my head. Jase just reminded Gwyn for the third time in fifteen minutes since they started talking.He was actually referring to her school activity. Since it's family day, parents are requested to attend the said event with their child at school. Jase has been talking about it since he learned that Gwyn and I are both going. I refuse to be absent on his first family day.They talked for an hour. I love hearing their voice and their funny conversations, especial
Gwyneth’s POV"Why are you so quiet?" Quir asked me as we ride the elevator. I was on my way down earlier when I ran into him and he asked me to have lunch with him."Jase is with Kalex now and I don't have anything to do because I've already made all the proposals for my next event. I just need to submit." I sighed.This has always been my problem ever since Kalex and I had an agreement. When Jase isn't by my side I can't do anything so I usually just read a book until I fall asleep. Everything's just boring whenever Jase's not at home.Quir and I decided to eat outside the company. Sometimes the food is also boring because the menu is almost always the same."So I was thinking, how about we go out tonight?" He asked as we eat at one of our favorite place near the hotel. It's delicious here in case there's majesty so we only eat here when new wages.
Gwyneth’s POV"Excellent job, Gwyn." I beamed at as he opened his arms and I ran towards him to hug him. He picked me up and turned me around."I did it!" I shouted at him and we were both laughing. "The senator loved the theme for the party ... he loved everything."They even popped a confetti for me. One of our officemates opened a bottle of wine to celebrate and gave me one. "Cheers to Gwyneth!"After months of preparing one of the biggest events of the year, I'm just so glad I finished the job. Who would have thought that I would host a politician's birthday party?I've been the event manager of big business men in the country but the aura is still different when your clients are influential in the Philippines. I met the president, the vice president, and even celebrities last night! That’s how big was the event that I organized and I'm happy to see the proud look
Gwyneth’s POV"Sorry you had to wait." Kalex said as he took the seat in front of me. I stared at him intently while calling the server to give him coffee.Short stubbles are starting to grow on his chin. There are bags under his eyes and his hair is too long. To some, I'm sure he looked fine, but I know him too well to see that he's not. That's not the Kalex I know. These past few days must've been hard for him.I was making it hard for him."What do you want to talk about?" He asked after his coffee was served in front of him. His eyes made its way to mine, but then he immediately looked away. To this day he still can’t look at me."I'll go straight to the point." He nodded as he mixed his coffee. "I heard you ... at the bar. I heard what you said to Demitri." That made him look at me.His eyes are full of guilt that confirmed that everything I
Gwyneth’s POV"Quir?" He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I'm okay."You scared me back there." He said and shook his head."I'm sorry. She just came out of nowhere." Said a man approaching us. He seems to be the driver of the car. He helped us stand up. "I really didn't see you." The man approached me. "Are you hurt? Should I bring you two to the hospital?""No. We're fine." Quir replied with a smile and then they talked. He glanced at me before shaking hands with the driver who said goodbye."So, what are you doing here besides killing yourself?" He joked. I was embarrassed to close my eyes because of his question."I haven't seen it." Is this man like everyone who sees me like this? I looked up at him when he chuckled. Since Quir is much taller than me he put his hands on top of my head and beamed at me."Let's get some
Gwyneth’s POVI walked into the building and went straight to Kalex's office. I can sense all those stares from the people here. I know others here know me because I was once Kalex’s high school friend. Maybe that’s also the reason why some of them were staring at me.I just ignored them because I have nothing to do with them anyway. I came here because of Kalex and they weren’t my goal. I also hate people looking at me, as if spotlight was pointing at me as of this moment. It looks like I’ll be their topic once I turned my back at them. These dumb as* has really nothing to do instead of focusing on their work. Tch.While walking to Kalex’s office I came across a kid chasing a ball. He was running and not looking to where he's going so I tried to avoid but he still collided with me, causing him to fall to the floor. Awts. His back must be hurt.“A
