Gotta Be You Chapter 144: Promise
“Who is he, Sandra?” Mrs. Lee repeated as she frowned at Sandra. “That's Jay Kim,” Bammie was the one who answered her question. Almost instantly, Mrs. Lee's face darkened as she almost ran towards the unexpected visitor. If not for her husband's quick reflexes and immediately grabbing her wrist to stop her, she would've pounced on him and ruined his handsome face by scratching it with her claws like an angry cat. “What is that guy doing here?!” she screamed in anger while profusely shaking her arm that's been locked from his husband's grip. It was obvious that she loathed the guy even though she hadn't met him and didn't even know who he was at all. But by the fact that he was the one who had spread fake news and taking her son's position in Sandra's life was enough reason for her to feel that way. Meanwhile, since Mrs. Lee's voice was so loud, it immediately caught Jay's attention and made him look in their direction. He frowned at first upon seeing unfamiliar faces, but when hi

“That guy! Who does he think he is?! The nerve to say those things in front of Sebastian!” Mrs. Lee shouted in fury after Jay turned to leave. She didn't care if he heard her, it was actually much better if he did and went back there so she could give him an earful. Fuming, she then turned to her son and pointed at him angrily.“And you! Why didn't you do something?! You should have stand up for yourself right at the moment he mistook you as Sandra's bodyguard!” she reprimanded. “Why are you like that? For once, please put up a fight and take stand up for what is rightfully yours,” the old woman added as she shook her head. The poor son, Sebastian, could only sigh and lowered his head. His mother's words were so sharp that it made him feel small. He regretted that he just stood there and let Jay Kim insult him indirectly. He didn't even do anything when the guy looked down on his parents and just stood there quietly just like a useless statue. “He even called us charity! What did
Gotta Be You Chapter 146: Truth
Simon was hesitant to leave as he looked worriedly at Carmina. However, his mother already dragged him outside the gate after the two old couple left some reminders to the young couple. “Mom! Can you stay until Sissy is done talking with Carmina? I just want to see if the talk will be done smoothly!” Simon pleaded. Mrs. Lee folded her arms as he stared at her youngest son. “Tell me honestly, fo you kike Carmina?” she suddenly asked which rendered Simon speechless. It was a rare sight to see the guy got out of words and not reacting in exaggeration. Usually, he would be gasping loudly and would be dramatic if the question was just nothing to him. Mrs. Lee raised an eyebrow as she watched her son twisted his lips and was about to cry. The sight instantly made her heart softened as she realized how young the guy still that he cannot handle underpressure. “I know you can't lie and I won't pressure youto answer that anymore. But Simon..” she let out a sigh and shook her head. Simon n
Gotta Be You Chapter 147: Forgive
Carmina immediately looked away as guilt was eating her out. She then recalled their first serious talk just a few months ago, after the incident that lasted for five years. She remembered Sandra's conditions that made her laugh too loud and how proud she was to say how ridiculous it was, when in fact, deep down inside her back then, she was cursing herself for being such a big fat liar. Sandra probably had seen through her that's why she made that condition for her. She wanted her to avoid Sebastian because she was jealous which she assured her that she has nothing to be jealous of her. But now, she felt like her own words was slapping her hard in front of Sandra who did nothing but be forgivable with her. “I know my apologies can't be fixed whatever damage I have done. But really.. I'm very sorry for all the trouble,” she immediately said as she played ith her fingers. “I know it's absurb to as for another forgiveness from you after breaking your two condition,” she added. The
Gotta Be You Chapter 148: Deep Talk
Sebastian stirred at the sudden contact and quickly opened his eyes in fear as he felt the warm body suddenly pressed against his. “Sleep again,” Sandra whispered as she patted his chest which made Sebastian sighed in relief. “You scared me,” he muttered, then turned to his side to face the woman. Sandra chuckled, “Why? Who did you think sneaked in here and crawled over you?” she asked.Sebastian quickly shook his head, obviously didn't want to answer that. “It's not like that..” he answered instead. The woman raised her eyebrows as she stared intently at him.“Then what?” she prompted, not letting him go. Sebastian turned away and looked at the ceiling while heaving a defeated sigh.“There's no one in particular. I just got scared that I thought it was not you..” he explained. Sandra prep up her elbow and rest her head on her knuckles as she laid down sideways and stared at Sebastian. “Is that so?” She opted, trying to get more information as if she was not convinced at his e
Gotta Be You Chapter 149: Love
Sandra's hazel orbs glinted in sadness and sorrow. For a long time, that very question was the one she had kept asking to herself. “Have I forgiven him?” she repeated as she smiled sullenly. She looked at Sebastian but there were no words that were coming out from her mouth. Because amongst all the hardest questions in the world, for Sandra, his question was most likely her million dollar version which was the hardest one. “You don't need to answer it, love..” Sebastian quickly told her upon seeing her reaction. However, Sandra shook her head and flashed a reassuring smile towards the guy. “I don't know..” she said.Sebastian was confused. He didn't know what she meant by that. As he was not sure whether she meant she didn't know if she already had forgiven her father or she didn't know if she should do it. He sat up properly and cupped the woman's face but didn't ask any further. He didn't want to pry and just wanted to comfort the woman because it was the first time he saw he
Gotta Be You Chapter 150: Deserve
Sebastian stared at the ceiling while Sandra was sleeping soundly on his chest. The two stayed lying on the bed after having a deep conversation. However, the woman fell asleep as she was telling him a story about how her father had treated her when she was young until before she moved out of their house. The conversation just naturally came because Sebastian got curious about the woman's life before he came in. And although the two haven't met or it's more accurate to say that when Sandra didn't know he existed yet, Sebastian already heard things about her and had a glimpse of her childhood. It was not a secret to everyone that Sandra Mendez was treated like a princess and spoiled rotten by her elusive business magnate of a father, Thomas Mendez. Despite the terror of an image he has, everyone still admired the old man for raising a child alone. People praised him for caring a lot for his daughter and some closest friends always voiced out how hands-on of a father he was. ‘Father
Gotta Be You Chapter 151: Deja Vu
Carmina's hands were shaking as she placed the cup of coffee on the table, “What is it that you want to talk.. Sir?” she asked, nervously. Although she had expected this, still, she wasn't prepared for it to be that sooner. After the night that her car got stolen and she was left in the deserted road, she has always been cautious of her surroundings whenever she goes out. It's only been a few days since it happened. That's why she thought the old man would wait for at least a week to give her time to think about it. Carmina was ready to go to work when she was summoned by the familiar man to come with him. It felt like a deja vu. And even though she wanted to run away, she knew she had no place to hide and the old man would always find her wherever she went. Sitting with a hard pounding chest, she found herself there in front of the same old person she had never wished to see again. “Are you still friends with Sebastian Lee?” Thomas Mendez queried straightforwardly.Carmina didn

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. Ah, he's still and will always be head over heels for her even after years of being together. “I really want to think about kissing you hard on national televis

“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,
Gotta Be You Chapter 175: Lawsuit
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. She wasn't looking
Gotta Be You Chapter 174: Announcement
Sebastian felt like he's got flashed by the bucket of ice cold water on the head right at the moment he heard that utterly familiar voice. 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. But since he was in denial that it was Sandra who apologized to him over the phone, he quickly
Gotta Be You Chapter 173: Sorry
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
Gotta Be You Chapter 172: Certain
“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

Upon seeing Jamaica's unusual expression, everyone in the office felt nervous, especially when she mentioned ‘bad news’. There was just too much bad news that kept on coming for them. 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. She was not in her best mood because
Gotta Be You Chapter 170: Bad News
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
Gotta Be You Chapter 169: Flash
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
