Carmina was dumbfounded as she didn't know what to do.

The news was saying that she purposely posted those pictures to debunk the alleged rumor that Phoenix was Sandra's real fiancé.

She couldn't process it as she didn't remember uploading any picture of her with Sebastian. She didn't even have pictures with him in her phone to begin with, so how could she actually do that?

Carmina shifted her gaze to Jay Kim and right then, her eyes squinted with pure accusations and disdain in her cat eyes.

“You did that right?! You paid people to steal my car to get my phone and use it to post those damn pictures!” she shouted in anger.

Her chest was heaving up and down as her hands were balled into fist, ready to throw a hard punch on Jay's handsome face. Nevermind if the guy and his supporters will sue her, at least she will get her revenge by ruining his beauty for everyone to see if that ever happens.

“You're not that stupid after all, Carmina Nam,” Jay Kim complimented with a huge mocking

    Carmina looked up and saw Simon smiling warmly at her. Instantly, she felt like crying at the sight because she didn't expect to still receive such warmth from him despite the rumors circulating about her. After the photos had been uploaded by Jay using her official account without her permission, she was already expecting that all of them, including Simon, were angry at her since they all probably thought that she was sabotaging Sebastian and Sandra's wedding for some reason. Although she had hidden feelings with Sebastian, never did she have ever thought of ruining his relationship with Sandra, moreover, confessing to him at all. That's why she could only hope that they won't figure out that little secret of hers because it will be over for their friendship even after she clears herself from the rumors. She sighed deeply. “Get in” It was two simple words from Simon which made Carmina quickly stand up and hop inside the passenger's seat without hesitation. She didn't refuse nor e

    “Mom, you should sleep now. Let's just try to contact her later once you wake up..” Sebastian worriedly said to her mother. He has been convincing his mother to take a rest since it was already past midnight and Carmina was probably sleeping already. However, his mother was too stubborn and was insisting to call the woman for a deep talk because she firmly believed that his best friend was doing it to halt the wedding.Sebastian looked at his father who was just silently sitting beside his mother. “Dad, help me convince her to go upstairs”Mr. Lee just looked at him and then shook his head which made Sebastian pursed his lips and exhaled loudly. Ever Since he was young, his father had never helped him and Simon whenever things like that happened in the family. He never went against his wife and would just always stay beside her, quietly giving his full support to whatever his mother was fighting for. “Mom..”“Things like this shouldn't be slept on until you resolve it, Sebastian!

    Sebastian took a deep breath and stared at Sandra. He was about to say something when he felt his phone vibrate. He immediately answered it without looking at the screen but he waited for the caller to speak first unlike what he did earlier. “Bro we're here! Open the gate now!” Simon's quirky voice immediately came in. “There's a guard there. Step out of your car and press the doorbell, Sandra already informed him to let you in,” Sebastian instructed, knowing that his younger brother will insist on taking his new luxury car in. “But how about my car?” Simon asked in a whiny tone. “Leave it there. No one will steal that” Simon wanted to protest and tell them that Carmina's car just got stolen, and he had just bought his ‘baby’ with all his savings that he cannot afford to lose it just like that. However, he stopped himself before he could open his big mouth because it was not for him to say those things and that was the very reason why they went there. Huffing, he ended the call w

    Simon got completely terrified when Carmina finally looked up and saw her face. He feared that the woman suddenly changed her mind and would rather take the blame than tell them the truth because she was full of regrets. Since he didn't know the whole story, he thought that Carmina's mistake was not that bad because Sandra had already forgiven her and Sebastian and Sandra had reconciled and were actually getting married soon. Simon held Carmina's hands and squeezed them tightly. “Tell them the truth,” he coaxed. The three silently watched the two and Sandra and Bammie looked at each other knowingly while Sebastian just stared at Simon and Carmina's hands. No one said anything and gave Carmina the luxury to get herself together until she was ready to speak. Although the answer for Sandra's question was just a simple yes or no, they didn't want to force the answer from her because it might cause her to be pressured which might end up with her lying to them instead.However, Simon tho

    Sandra stared deeply at Carmina. She stayed like that and didn't say anything at all after a long time, which made not only Carmina nervous but Simon as well.The guy was determined to clear things up for Carmina that's why he immediately explained the woman's situation. “Sissy. I saw her in front of your building. Jay was the one who helped her out from deserted road and brought her to the Crown Entertainment's building”He was afraid that they wouldn't believe her and so he needed to back her up in order to convince the three that she was telling the truth. Sandra's eyes narrowed at Carmina, “What did he ask you to do this time?” she asked slowly. Carmina instantly lowered her head. The words ‘this time’ gave too much impact to her as if she was hit in the gut by Sandra. It sounded innocent and casual but she knew how heavy those words were. It was a reminder that once upon a time, she was blinded by her greed and made an agreement with Thomas Mendez that ended their friendship.

    Sebastian quickly whipped his head to Sandra with wide eyes and mouth ajar. Although he had a feeling that Sandra would ask about it since they talked a bit about Carmina's feelings after she left, he didn't expect her to ask it straight to the point without any hesitations. He sighed. He then walked back to his seat beside Sandra and held her hands then kissed it. “Please take it slow,” he muttered as his gaze landed on her fiancée.Sandra heaved a sigh and just like that all her jealousy subsided. She shook her head and her lips spasmed when she caught Bammie was giving her a teasing look in front of her. Meanwhile, the question rather made Carmina frozen on her seat and rendered her speechless. Her heart was pumping hard and loud that she thought it was going to explode. She was determined to tell the truth with them, however, she was not ready for that particular truth to be revealed.Swallowing hard, she immediately looked away upon seeing the sight in front of her.

    Sebastian immediately ran to Carmina and hugged her protectively before his mother's palm landed again on the woman's cheek. The moment he and Bammie took the final steps of the staircase, the scene of his mother slapping Carmina welcomed them. The sound of it made the both of them stunned and when Mrs. Lee was about to repeat it, Sebastian quickly ran towards the scene. “Sebastian, get away from her! Why are you protecting her!” Mrs. Lee angrily pulled her son away from Carmina. “Do you really love her? How about Sandra?! You two are getting married and you have the audacity to do that in your fiancée's house! Let her go!” “Mom! What are you saying? I'm just protecting her because you're hurting her!” Sebastian retorted, refusing to let go of Carmina and received his mother's tiny punches with his back.“Ha! If Sandra sees you like that, do not expect that the wedding will be happening anymore!” Mrs. Lee spat out as she glared at the back of her son. Sebastian got frozen upon hea

    Sebastian stood frozen as he stared at Sandra. Meanwhile, Carmina quickly grabbed her hands and kneeled in front of her. “Sandra, don't do that,” she pleaded. Everyone was surprised at her action but Sandra was fast enough to pull her again to stand up. “Please stop kneeling. I'm not a god,” she reprimanded quite annoyed. Carmina lowered her head and fidgeted the hem of her shirt, “Don't cancel your wedding..” she said with a shaking voice. She felt utterly guilty and she cannot forgive herself if the two ended up not marrying each other because of her. No one should be blamed there but her. As it was her fault that her phone got stolen, Jay Kim had the chance to use her account to upload those pictures that made Sebastian's mother upset. If she didn't get jealous and just tolerated the pain of seeing their sweetness instead of leaving in the first place, nothing awful will ever happen. “Sebastian's mother is right.

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.

    “Before we start, I would like to thank you first for trusting us for this exclusive interview again, Sandra,” the host stated.Sandra flashed a smile, “Of course, this is my favorite show”“Really?” She nodded, “And I kinda owe you, too..”The host seemed surprised and she couldn't help but gaped at her. 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. She then giggled at the sight of her husband looking very pissed off.“You interviewed him after my confession”“Oh.. so, you were watching back then?” “I told you,

    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.

    News about the royal couple being married broke down and spread out so quickly, right after Jay Kim showed the marriage certificate on national television. 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. Sebastian shook his head and kissed his wife's forehead

    “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

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.

    Bammie and Levi's pictures immediately spread out in all social media sites, since it happened in public and everyone who was casually walking in the hallway that time grabbed their phones and captured the moment when the two decided to display their affection there. 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
