Bammie unexpectedly woke up quickly after two hours of sleep and went to the guest room to check on Carmina.

She was expecting to see her still sleeping soundly but when she opened the door, she was quite surprised to see her wide awake and already dressed up while putting her makeup on.

“Good morning!” Carmina greeted cheerfully while smiling.

Bammie squinted her eyes. Her hair was still messy and she was still in her nightgown but the woman in front of her was ready to go already.

“Are you planning to leave while I'm still sleeping?” she asked suspiciously.

Carmina halted putting eyeliner on her left eye and shifted her gaze to Bammie. “No?” she scowled.

Bammie still gave her a suspicious look as she pointed her index finger on her.

“Then why are you already dressed up?!” she hollered.

Carmina slowly grinned and continued putting eyeliner on her left eye, ignoring the daggers she was throwing at her.

“I couldn't sleep so I decided to change and put my make up on instead of f

    Sebastian mentally cursed as he saw Thomas Mendez sitting comfortably on the sofa, like a king who had caught his rebel daughter from escaping his dungeon. Instantly, his body stiffened as his heart pumped frantically at the sight. It was his first time to step his feet inside her house and he was really too unfortunate to see what awaits him there. ‘Just how unfortunate am I?’ he asked himself internally. Out of all the time they had to meet again, circumstances really have chosen the time when he was the happiest. “You surprised me again, Papa,” Sandra said, nonchalantly.Her face was void of emotion as she looked at her father. She was not happy to see him, in fact, it has been a long time since the last time she felt happy to see him again.“You surprised me as well, my daughter,” Thomas fired back while his gaze never left Sebastian. His scrutinizing gaze can put holes in his body that send shivers to his nape. “Who is he?” Thomas queried Sandra, as if he didn't want to ta

    Bammie smiled cheekily as she stared at the man in front of her on the dining table. She was not shocked at all when she saw him sitting comfortably in the living room after she's done showering and well dressed up. In fact, she was expecting him to come over to her penthouse, that's why despite sleeping really late, she woke up early even though she's not a morning person. “You don't like pancakes?” Levi asked in his baritone voice. Bammie giggled as she shook her head. “I'm not a fan of pancakes but it's edible," she replied, then took a slice and slowly ate it. Levi watched her swallow it and quickly drank a gulp of water. Then, he grimaced and shook his head in disbelief. “You sure don't like it. Why are you pretending?” he asked. He had been eating breakfast with her for exactly eights days straight. And everyday, he orders different food since he didn't know what food Bammie exactly likes in the morning. And during those seven days, she happily ate everything on the table

    Carmina clenched her fists as her eyes downcasted while Jay who was sitting inside the car was grinning triumphantly, watching her getting stunned just by the mere mention of Thomas' name. It was just recently that he had learned about the history of Sebastian and he was still under the illusion that it wasn't true at all. When Sandra accompanied them going all the way to Los Angeles, he really thought that she had finally realized that he was sincere with his intention of marrying her, only to realize that she was just personally sending them away and to reject the arranged marriage that her father was proposing to her. He was not stupid after all. He realized that the woman went to that extent to ensure that they really left the country and he had long guessed that it was for that guy. “I have a question,” he asked while looking at Carmina who was still immobile on her spot. He didn't wait for her to say something and look at him and quickly continued. “What did your best frie

One was the death certificate and the others were all her signed papers that consisted of her agreement with Thomas Mendez to never tell a single soul of their deal and her exclusive contract with Crown Entertainment. Three hours had passed when she left the coffee shop but her mind was all clouded that she didn't know how she was able to go home safely.

Her dream to be a famous singer was within her reach and all she had to do was wait for the go signal. Carmina was dazed for a moment.

    After Thomas had finally left, Sebastian worriedly looked at Sandra as he immediately cupped her face. “Are you okay?” he asked softly. Sandra's eyes were blazing but the moment she met his worried gaze, it instantly softened which melted Sebastian's heart.“Don't worry..” she replied and plastered a gentle smile.The creases on Sebastian's forehead instantly smoothened as he gently caressed her cheeks using his thumbs. While his eyes held her tantalizing hazel orbs before gently kissing her forehead. Sandra smiled at his little gestures. Sebastian's existence alone gave her a sense of security that she never felt with anyone else before, not even with her overprotective father. “I'm sorry..” she muttered as she reached his face and rested her palm on his cheek. Her eyes glinted in sadness and pain while looking at Sebastian.Everything that her father had said was not true, however, she knew her fiancé would be extremely affected by it because he was very sensitive and vulnerabl

    Bammie's heart ached at the sight and quickly stood up and went to kneel in front of Levi. She then pulled him to her and lent her shoulder for him to cry on. No matter how great a man can hide his true feelings, finding a woman they truly love marrying another man and not them will instantly shake them and expose what they were hiding deep in their hearts. And Levi's mask fell down. The poor guy had been keeping it to himself for so long and trying to show a strong facade so that Sandra won't feel guilty for unconsciously hurting him. She had seen it all because she's been there in the corner, silently watching him as he was falling deeper and deeper in love with her best friend even though he knew it was impossible for her to reciprocate it. “You know, love is harsh when you give it to the wrong person..” she said as she caressed his back gently. Levi silently cried as his tears kept on falling nonstop, damping Bammie's shoulder but she didn't mind. “Sandra had been in love wi

Both were lying under the thick bluish gray sheet without wearing anything like newborn babies. They did ‘it’ again and Sebastian couldn't help but giggled at the very fresh memory of what they had just did inside his head. “We're getting married next week..” Sebastian said hesitantly when Sandra started dragging him upstairs, going to the master's bedroom which was her bedroom. Her bedroom. Just thinking that he will stepping inside her bedroom made his blood pump up to his face and making his mind imagine crazy things that was not appropriate for someone who just entered his fiancée's house for the first time.

    “Are you sure it's okay to just barge in without even waiting for the guard to let us inside?” Carmina queried worriedly as she trailed behind her. It was not her first time to visit Sandra's mansion, but it was her first time to go there with Bammie that's why she was surprised when Bammie just greeted the guard and walked past him straight inside the mansion. Since the two had already agreed that they were going to see Sandra to ask about her wedding dress, Carmina had no choice but to come back to Bammie's penthouse after lunch. However, she didn't expect to see Simon there, who was summoned by Bammie to report about everything that happened to his mission, in which the three of them ended up staying in the penthouse until late dinner. “I don't need anyone's permission to enter here because this is my home too,” Bammie sTated casually. Carmina halted her pace as she watched Bammie's back in surprise. “You mean, this is your shared property with Sandra?” she asked. Bammie brief

He couldn't believe her! “He even told me he loves me!” she continued cheerfully, not minding the fact that her husband's already flaming in anger with her story. Who wouldn't anyway? This wife's admirers didn't decrease even after their marriage and have four kids. She's already in her forties, yet men out there of any age continued fantasizing over her! Some even had the audacity to confess just like what she's telling him right at the moment, and it's making him really furious! “Of course I told him I wouldn't replace you with anyone else. Phoenix is the only one in this world,” she giggled. And just like that, like his old self who never fails to melt everytime she says the right words, he smiled widely, showing his gummy and pearly white teeth.

Meanwhile, Sandra chuckled as she watched the host looking at her, suddenly confused.“I found my love because of you,” she continued.Everyone, from the audience to the staff squealed at her words. Even the host herself couldn't hide her giddiness despite the confusion still registered on her face. However, someone from the side didn't look pleased and rather seemed pissed off over something no one could figure out why. “How?” the host asked excitedly.Sandra glanced on the side where Sebastian was silently standing.

    Shocked, confused, lost were all be seen in everyone's faces after that speech from Sandra Mendez. Their cameras even zoomed in on the piece of paper she was holding, then almost instantly, disbelief and bewilderment were then painted as their expression. “Sebastian Lee?” one queried, puzzled of who it was. Others gasped loudly upon hearing his name and those who were standing near the guy turned their heads on him and gave him an incredulous look. “He's Phoenix right?! His real name is Sebastian Lee!” another shouted. Sebastian felt nervous at the sudden attention he unexpectedly was receiving. His determination to go up on stage had instantly deteriorated when everyone was talking about him with full anticipation.“He's here!” another pointed the direction where Sebastian was.Fortunately, before anyone from the reporters and journalists could move, Sandra immediately caught their attention back on her once again. “I just like to clarify things," she said.

His heartbeat skipped its beat as his knees went jelly, making him suddenly kneeled down on the floor weakly. He heard the loud beeping from the other line which meant that the call ended by the other party. However, his hand vibrated right after which caught his attention back and snapped him out from being astonished. Reluctantly, he checked the screen and saw Bammie's name flashed on it. He quickly answered it in case it was Sandra but only to be disappointed when it was her best friend instead. “Come here faster at the Crown building,” she said, sounding in haste. Sebastian was about to ask why, but the call quickly ended, leaving him puzzled and annoyed. He stared at his phone with brows connected together and thought whether to go there or not.

Their fans celebrated like there was no tomorrow while some showed their dismay as they did like Phoenix more for their princess. Flashnews about them kept on coming here and there and nonstop articles were posted on the internet because the media were the first to celebrate the great news. Sandra sighed as she looked at Sebastian apologetically for she knew it was already exhausting for her husband to have never ending rumors about her. They were now in Sebastian's apartment, particularly in his room. Since Sandra was the hottest topic, they both decided to not go home to her mansion because they were certain that there's a lot of reporters waiting for her there for an exclusive interview. “Aren't you tired?” she queried as she wrapped her arms around her husband's waist.

    “Are you married?” Thomas straightforwardly asked in a low baritone voice that gave everyone goosebumps except for Sandra. The old man didn't bother to say any greetings, not even wait for Sandra to ask him why he was suddenly there and just went straight to the point and asked her about the news. Meanwhile, Sandra folded her arms across her chest as she equalled her father's murderous stares. She looked calm and seemed unbothered and not scared with the presence of the intimidating old man, most probably because she was as intimidating as him as well. “Yes,” she answered without any hesitation. Then the corner of her lips slowly lifted upward as her eyes sparkled brightly, “But not with Jay Kim,” she immediately corrected before her father could ask if Jay's paper was not fake.Simon, Carmina and Levi gasped loudly upon hearing Sandra's answer. They all then turned to Sebastian suspiciously and saw the guy bowing his head looking guilty while fidgeting with his fingers. Sandra hea

And hearing that there was more of it made them instantly panicked and thought of the worst because they all assumed that it came from Thomas Mendez. They all thought that it was indeed a suicide to go against the old man, since the day didn't even pass and they were already facing another problem. “That bad?” Sandra queried as she frowned at her assistant.She then glanced at Sebastian and mindlessly walked to his direction upon seeing the guy looking pale and not with himself. As she sat beside him, she grabbed his hand and entwined it with hers without saying anything as her focus went back to Jamaica.From the side, Jamaica nodded in response which made everyone get curious about the news she brought in. “What's the bad news?” asked Bammie, a little impatient.

Minutes later, rumors about their relationship followed, as the reporters who were just in the auditorium nearby immediately got the report about the scene outside and took the opportunity for a juicy scoop. Which immediately stole the spotlight from what happened in the press conference. Meanwhile, Sandra quickly led them to her office upstairs when people started filing around them. And she also quickly called the security to usher the visitors from the auditorium outside because the press conference was already done to avoid them lurking around the building and coming to her office. “So.. care to explain?” she folded her hands while raising her eyebrows on Bammie. Meanwhile, Bammie rolled her eyes and scoffed. “Why

    Levi looked behind his shoulder as he noticed that Sandra was missing. His thick brows then furrowed upon seeing the woman was left behind there, immobile and stayed still on her spot while looking somewhere else. Following her line of vision, Levi's jaw instantly clenched when he caught a stranger hiding behind the huge plant decoration, in a nearby distance on the right corner of the hallway, holding a camera that was directed towards them and obviously taking pictures.His gaze then went back to Sandra and immediately, his thick eyebrows pulled together as he wondered why the camera was on them when the woman they were after was on the other side. Levi was about to just shrug it off when he thought that the stranger might've just mistook one of the two girls with him as Sandra. However, it would be impossible because the woman was slimmer than the other two. The creases on his forehead deepened as his eyes wandered to his companion, searching for the possible target of that stran
