"I DIDN'T know you're married," Kelly told me while we were having lunch. Rory came to the shop with a box of pepperoni pizza for us. The old woman was a very nice boss.

I managed a smile. "Yeah. I've been married for almost a year."

"Your husband… he's gorgeous," Kelly commented, admiration was obvious in her voice.

I shrugged. "Well, yeah."

Gideon was really physically attractive. No doubt about that. He could easily catch everyone's attention with just his looks.

"Did something happen to him?" Jeff asked, biting on his pizza. "Or was he really…"

"He had an accident four months ago…" I filled him in. "He's in a coma for three months."

Kelly gasped. "Oh. I'm sorry, Bianca. It must be hard for you then."

I gave her a small smile. "It's okay. He's in recovery now."

"I noticed you're not wearing a wedding ring." I saw Jeff drop his eyes on my left hand.

"Yeah. I… uh lost it." I lied.

I didn't want to explain anymore. They didn't have to know about that part of my life.

    MY eyes widened when I saw the time on the clock beside me. I was already late for work. "Shit!" I picked up my phone and immediately realized that it was Friday. I didn't have work on Fridays. I turned to the other side of the bed. It was empty. Where's Gideon? He must have already gone to the office. I frowned at myself when I realized that he was the thing that I looked for this morning. "Well, it's normal. He's my husband. And I'm living here with him," I justified to myself. I found out I was wrong when I got up from the bed and left my room. Gideon didn't go to work. I stopped at the entrance of the kitchen when I found Gideon there. He was behind the stove. Beside him was Hanna. "Now, Gideon. The pasta has already settled. You can now season it." It was Hanna. What has he been doing? Was he cooking? Pasta? "Bianca, good morning!" Hanna said when she turned in my direction and finally noticed me. "I heard from Gideon you had a fever last night." I smiled

    "ARE you sure you can go to work now?" Gideon asked me. I tilted my head to Gideon after putting on my sneakers. "I'm already fine since yesterday, Gideon. I had no reason to skip work." "I'll fetch you tonight. We'll be going somewhere." I looked at him for a moment. I was about to protest, but then I remembered the deal that I made with him. I had agreed to go on a date with him. For two months. I drew a deep breath and nodded. "Oh. Okay." He smiled at me. "See you, wife." "See you." "You're husband's here, Bianca," Kelly announced beside me. I stopped from stacking the children's books on the bookshelf. I looked at the counter, and immediately saw Gideon. He was standing there and talking to Jeff. Wearing a dark long-sleeved polo shirt that rolled to his elbows and black slacks, he looked like a formidable businessman. I looked at my reflection from the glass panel of Rory's office. Some strands of my hair were loose from my French bun. I absentmindedly fixed my

    "WHAT do you want?" Gideon asked me. In front of us were different food stalls.I pursed my lips as I scanned the stalls in front of us. "I'm still full. Let's just buy popcorn.""What flavor?" He turned to me. "Plain butter.""How about drinks?" I glanced at the crew who I noticed was staring at Gideon for a while now. "Just water."Gideon then repeated our order to the crew who seemed very attentive to him. I stopped myself from rolling my eyes. Yeah. I got it. Women were easily drawn by his looks. "I hope you enjoy the movie," the blonde woman said to Gideon. There was a wide smile on her face.I couldn't help but scoff. She was obviously trying to flirt with Gideon. I turned to Gideon to see his reaction. He seemed oblivious to the flirting of the woman in front of him. I pursed my lips to stifle a smile. "Yeah. We will enjoy it, Miss." I said, with an upturned smile on my face. "What's funny?" I turned to Gideon. We were already walking away from the popcorn stall. I was

  • Falling For My Devil CEO Husband   Gideon...kissed me!

    OH… SHIT! I whispered in my head when I woke up that morning. I blinked as I looked at Gideon's face which was only a few inches away from mine. How did we end up like this? I literally woke up facing Gideon. My arm was wrapped around his body. My face was only inches away from him. How… how did we end up like this? I remembered last night after we arrived home from the movie house, we already went straight to bed. I clearly remembered sleeping on the left side of this bed, away from him. But how… "It was obvious it was you who moved closer, Bianca," I silently told myself. I was even the one hugging Gideon, for Pete's sake! I bit my lower lip and slowly entangled my arm from his body. I let out a sigh of relief when I was able to successfully remove my hand from him.Good thing I woke up first before him. What would he say to me if he saw what I did? I stared at Gideon who was still sleeping peacefully beside me. "Damn…" I whispered in my head. He looked gorgeous even when

    BOTH Kelly and Jeff turned to me. "I think it's from Gideon. Though… I'm not really sure." I pursed my lips. "Your husband?" Before I could answer Jeff, I already heard my cell phone ringing. I excused myself from them and answered the call. It was Gideon. "Hi, Bianca." Gideon's deep voice welcomed me. Now, I could confirm that he's really the one who sent the food. Why else would he call, right? "Hey. Uh, we received a delivery from IL Fornaio. Did you send us lunch?" "Yeah. I called to check if the food already arrived." I could hear some background noise from the other line. Was he outside his office? I cleared my throat. "Why did you do that?" "Send you food?" he said. "Well, you're my wife. And I wanted to make sure you're eating good food."I frowned. "I always eat good food.""Hmm, Kelly mentioned that you only had a burger at lunch yesterday?" Even if I didn't see him, I could imagine his brow was lifted as he said those words. "It was a one-pounder burger," I just

    "TAKE care, Bianca," Kelly said when my shift ended that afternoon. "Tell your husband we're thankful for the food!" I smiled at him. "Yeah. I'll tell him." We didn't even manage to finish all the food for lunch so we even had it for snacks. Instead of riding a taxi, I decided to just walk on my way home. The store was just five blocks away from Gideon's house. The house was alone when I got home. Hanna only visits the house now during weekends. "I just wanted to check on you," Helen said on the other line. I had just finished changing when she called. "I just got off from work," I said as I settled myself on the couch. Helen said that she was alone in her shop. She recently opened a bakeshop in Houston. "And Gideon?""He's still at work. His condition has been improving day by day. He only goes to therapy now during weekends.""How about his memory?"I sighed. "Still nothing. Aside from random headaches, there was nothing.""What about your relationship? Was he still pursuing

    "WHAT'S this?" My eyes widened in surprise that morning I got to work. Kelly and Jeff both greeted me with a small cake. Kelly grinned at me. "Well, it's your first month at work, Bianca!" "Come on, Bianca. Blow the candle.""Oh!" I blinked. I hadn't realized I was already working for a month. "Thank you for this." I didn't expect that they'd remember this day. I smiled at Jeff and Kelly before I blew the candle on the cake. "Well, since it's your first month here, we expect you to treat us to drinks later." Kelly wiggled her eyebrows at me. I chuckled. "Sure." "Yes." Kelly clapped excitedly. "Rory already agreed to close the shop earlier." She winked at me. "We have a cool boss.""Bianca! Your husband sent you something!" Kelly announced hours later. I looked at the food Jeff had received. Ever since that day Gideon sent us food from Il Fornaio, he had already been sending us lunch at work regularly. This time, the food came from an Asian restaurant. "Wow, I've been craving

  • Falling For My Devil CEO Husband   Who's that, Bianca?

    KELLY was right about Martin. The man was handsome, in a rugged way. He was wearing a plain white v-neck shirt, faded jeans, and black boots. There was a thin gold chain hanging on his neck. His hair was wavy and slightly long. I also noticed the tattoo on his left biceps. Yeah. He was ruggedly handsome. "Congrats on your first month," Martin said as he handed me my drink. We just had a light dinner before Kelly ordered some drinks. We occupied one of the VIP couches of the bar. I looked at him and smiled. "Thanks, Martin.""How's work so far?" he smiled. I found out that Martin was funny and a nice person. He was easy to talk to. "I enjoyed it, Kelly and Jeff are great." I glanced at the two who were bickering in front of us. Martin chuckled. "Well, I hope you're not annoyed with their everyday bickering."I chuckled. "No. I enjoyed watching them bicker over simple things, in fact. They were obviously into each other." I sipped on my drink. "How about you? How's school?" Kelly

    "MOMMY!" Andrea said before she ran towards her mother. Gideon slowly turned his head in my direction. My heart stopped beating when our eyes met. His face was serious… his blue eyes were piercing into my soul. My knees felt weak with the way he looked at me. "We'll leave you two here…" Helen said. She went to me and took the grocery bag in my hand. "Talk to him, Bianca," Helen whispered before she turned her back on us and pulled Andrea inside the house. I was left there with Gideon. I looked at him. He looked fine. Except for the small scratches on his arms, he looked fully recovered. His white dress shirt was folded up to his elbows. His hair was already clean-cut. I swallowed hard and faced him."What are you doing here?" He raised his thick eyebrows. "Claiming back my wife. How about you, why did you run away, Bianca?" I looked away. "I already know that you've finally recovered your memories, Gideon. If you're here to talk about divorce—" "What are you saying

    "ARE you sure about this, Bianca?" Helen asked me from the other line. I took a deep breath as I glanced at the plane ticket on the nightstand. "Yeah… I'm leaving, Helen." I heard her sigh on the phone. "Don't you think it's wise if you talked to Gideon first, Bianca? Maybe this is just a misunderstanding." I bit my lower to stop my tears from falling. "How would I talk to him when he clearly doesn't want to talk to me?" It's been two days since Gideon woke up from the accident, and since then, he never looked for me. I remembered how he immediately looked for Diana when he woke up. "Can we go inside and talk to him now, Doc?" I asked the doctor. It was hours after the doctor announced Gideon was already awake. "Are you Diana?" the doctor asked me. I stilled. Diana? "I'm not, D-doc." "I'm Diana, Doc." I heard the woman's voice behind me. Diana stood up and went beside me. "Why are you calling for me?" The doctor turned to Diana. "The patient was looking for you, Miss

    Bianca's POV "BIANCA!" I stood up from the bench when I saw Amelia in front of me. I wiped away the tears on my face and looked at her. "H-he's still in the emergency room." "Oh… my son." Amelia's tears fell when her eyes turned to the door of the emergency room. "What happened?" I was in the house when the hospital called me to inform me that Gideon had been in an accident. The authorities told me that Gideon avoided a dog who was in the middle of the road, and that's why his car crashed into another car. The owner of the other car only suffered from a minor injury… while Gideon was unconscious when he was brought to the hospital. Amelia pulled me into her and enveloped me in her arms. "Hush, dear. It wasn't as fatal as what happened to him before." Amelia tried to calm me down. "I'm sure he'd survive this. I'm sure he'll be safe." I remembered what happened to him before. He was in the ICU for three months. He barely survived his accident. "I can't lose him, Amel

  • Falling For My Devil CEO Husband   I'm married, Miss

    "I HEARD you're dating a supermodel, Gideon. Is that true?" Mom asked me on the phone. My brows furrowed. "No. I'm not dating anyone, Mom. I'm busy here in the New York branch." I didn't know where my mother got that news, but it's not true. I'm not dating anyone. I only fuck around to satisfy my needs, but I don't date. I never entered a relationship after what happened to Diana. "I hope you stop playing around, Gideon. You're not getting any younger. Just look at Charlie…" I stiffened when I heard that name. We've seen each other a couple of times in the past years. I was civil with him in front of my parents. Well, my parents didn't know that I was the reason he left the house twelve years ago. Charlie didn't tell them. But I didn't care and it wouldn't matter to me if he did. "What's with that brother of mine, Mom?" "Oh, Charlie's already engaged. He said he'll bring home his fiancée after his work trip in India." Engaged? I gritted my teeth as I opened the envelope

  • Falling For My Devil CEO Husband   I'm sorry, Diana

    Gideon's POV I glanced at my watch as I waited for the traffic lights to light up. It was two in the afternoon. I canceled my remaining meetings for today and decided to go home early. She was supposed to have had a meeting today with the wedding organizers but she called in sick. When I called her earlier, she told me she wasn't feeling well. Ever since Diana came back, I could feel her worry. I didn't know if she was just stressed with the wedding or if she was really bothered by Diana's presence. She had nothing to be scared about. They might be all telling me that Diana might be my first love, but she was already part of my past. Even if she came back from the dead, my heart already belonged to Bianca. Even if my memory came back in the future, I knew that nothing would change. I remembered my last conversation with Diana the other day when she went to my office. "You made a promise to be before, Gideon. The last time we saw each other before you left for New York th

    "GOOD morning, Mrs. Henry," the maitre d greeted me when I entered Il Fornaio. I was meeting Amelia at the Italian restaurant for lunch today. She would hand me the proposal that Tyra submitted to her. My brows furrowed when instead of Amelia, it was Diana who was waiting for me at the table. "Where's Amelia?" I asked her as soon as I occupied the seat across from her. She smiled and handed me a folder. "I was with her earlier. But she had an emergency so she asked me to meet you and give you this." I cleared my throat. "Thank you." I looked at her. She was wearing a peach halter dress. She had makeup on her face. Her nails were nicely done. "Are you going somewhere?" I asked. I knew the woman didn't like me. I feel the same way toward her. She was just being nice because of Amelia… and Gideon. "It's okay if you don't join me for dinner." "No, Bianca. I really want to talk to you." My eyebrows moved a bit. "What do you want to talk about?" She looked at me. "I was wi

    "OH, you brought Pluto with you," Amelia exclaimed when she saw Pluto with me when she welcomed me in their mansion. She invited me that afternoon because she wanted to talk about the wedding. "I already invited Tyra Hopper's team, Bianca," Amelia said as we walked inside the house. Tyra Hopper is the wedding organizer that she hired for the wedding. "Hi, Bianca." I stilled when I saw a woman on the couch. Diana. She's here. She was wearing a white simple dress and fluffy slippers. Her long curly hair fell on her shoulders. "Diana, you're here…" I managed to smile at her and tried to hide my surprise. "She's staying here, Bianca," Amelia said. "She said she was staying here in LA for a month so I offered one of my guestrooms. Diana's a dear friend to us, after all." "I heard you're planning for a second wedding?" Diana asked when I settled on the seat next to her. Amelia left us and went upstairs. "Yeah." I tried to smile at her. I didn't know why I felt uncomfortable w

    "DON'T you find it weird?" I asked Gideon that night. We were already home from Gideon's surprise dinner celebration. "What's weird, sweetheart?" "Diana…" I muttered in a small voice. "Diana?" "How she suddenly appeared… just in time for your birthday?" I remembered what happened earlier. "What happened to you, Diana?" Amelia asked the woman we all recovered from the shock. "How are you alive? Everyone thought you were dead. You were declared dead." "It was a long story, Amelia," Diana started. "You all know now that I really didn't die. I was saved by an old couple in a small town. They said they saw me on the shore. They brought me to the small hospital. But when I woke up, I couldn't remember anything. I didn't know anything about myself… The old couple decided to keep me with them. For seven years, I lived with them, until finally, my memory came back… The first thing I did was go back here to LA. But I found out that my family wasn't here anymore." "Well, one year

  • Falling For My Devil CEO Husband   But...she's dead, right?

    "GOOD afternoon, Mrs. Henry," Thalia greeted me when I went to Gideon's office that afternoon. Gideon and I had been back in LA for three months now. Darwin was in Russia to supervise their new business there so Gideon was forced to go back to LA. It was fine with me. Way back in New York, I was already thinking of taking a break from work to focus on the wedding preparations. The other day, Amelia talked to me. She planned a birthday surprise for Gideon. Today is Gideon's birthday! Gideon didn't know about it because of his amnesia. I've already informed everyone in the office not to greet their boss. We wanted to surprise him later. "Don't forget later, Thalia," I told her before I walked past her table. She smiled and gave me a thumbs-up. "Bianca?" Gideon's eyes widened when he saw me. I smiled as I walked to his table. "Hi, are you done with your work?" I asked, glancing at the laptop on his table. "Yeah. I'm just reviewing these reports for tomorrow." He pla
