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

[FIVE YEARS AGO..]"Sandra.." her father softly called her with a worried look in his eyes.Holding a piece of paper, Sandra bit her bottom lips as she heaved a sigh then shook her head, "That's not true," she said trying to convince more.Thomas held his daughter's shoulders as he looked worriedly at her. "I got him investigated right away after I learned about the gifts and letters you are receiving. I ordered the investigator to follow him around to know if he is someone good to be with..” he said. Then, he shook his head. “You know, I'm paranoid when it comes to your safety, Sandra. I'm sorry but I'm not really sorry for doing that,” he added. Sandra didn't respond as her shoulders shook vehemently. Her eyes were fixated at the picture of the guy with lots of flowers around him.“That's the information I have gathered. I'm sorry..” Thomas stated as he watched his daughter's state. "No.." the young girl shook her head profusely as she continued trying to convince herself that he
Gotta Be You Chapter 153: Call
Sebastian was busy talking with his brother in his studio when his phone suddenly rang. For a moment he thought that it was Sandra that just by hearing the ring, it instantly put a smile on his face. “You're so whipped, bro,” Simon commented as he watched his older brother smiling like an idiot. Sebastian ignored him as he pulled out his phone and answered it without looking at the name of the caller on other screen. “Yes, love. You miss me?” he asked with a huge smile on his face. “S-sorry..” The smile on Sebastian's face instantly disappeared as it was replaced by a scowled. Immediately, he looked at the screen only to see Carmina's name in it. He suddenly turned cold as he felt immediately annoyed, in embarrassment and disappointment. “Please don't hang up! This is very important, Sebastian!” Carmina quickly said before he could press the end call button. The woman had been trying to approach him but he was still refusing. Although Sandra had tried to talk to him about her
Gotta Be You Chapter 154: Better
Sebastian cursed mentally. His hands turned cold as he's got frozen and stunned at the sight of Thomas Mendez for the third time. It felt like a deja vu only without Sandra beside him now but his brother, Simon. And he felt more scared than he was back then for the same reason that his fiancée wasn't beside him. Sebastian was already in panic before they arrived in the mansion, therefore, his mind was already in chaos to think straight. Meanwhile, Simon halted behind him and stared at the old man with a frown. They young guy had not seen Thomas Mendez in person that near before and seeing him fact to face that moment made him felt like he was seeing a very big Hollywood celebrity. The young guy's eyes lit up as his expression showed excitement, opposite to his brother who seemed like running out of blood and was about to pass out in any second. “Where is Sandra Sissy?” asked Simon, casually breaking the deafening silence. Thomas who was sitting like a king on the golden chair shi
Gotta Be You Chapter 155: Fear
“How am I better than my brother?” asked Simon as he blinked several times. He genuinely didn't know why Thomas said that when he obviously didn't know his brother. And he thought the old man was just prejudiced against his older brother. Meanwhile, Sebastian clenched his fists as he casted his eyes downward and stared at his shoes. He cannot lie to himself that he wasn't affected by what Thomas had said because it was something he wanted to hear from the father of the woman he loved. To make him say that he was better than any other guys. He didn't want to hear the answer because his insecurities were just going to heighten more and he was afraid he'd hate his brother for it. Not only because of the fact that he complimented him but also, he compared the young guy to him and blatantly said his brother was better than him. ‘What did he mean by that?’ he asked himself. However, he hates it and just hates his brother simply because it was not Simon's fault. Sebastian shook his hea
Gotta Be You Chapter 156: Abducted
Sebastian quickly ran and left the mansion without saying anything to Thomas after learning about the press conference. He didn't know any details and all he could think about was to find where exactly it was being held and stop it. “Bro! Wait!” Simon ran after him. He ignored him and hastily passed through the gate. He didn't notice the old guard was back already and the latter was shocked to see them inside. “Sir! When did you come here?” the guard asked but he got ignored. Fortunately, Simon heard him and his eyes lit up upon seeing him. “Mr. Sue! You're back! But sorry, let's chat next time. We're in a hurry!” After saying that, Simon quickly trailed behind his brother once again.He screamed when he almost missed the car because Sebastian was already seated in the driver's seat and had immediately started the engine. “Don't leave me here!” Simon screamed and quickly climbed in the passenger's seat. “You shouldn't leave your Uncle,” Sebastian hissed. Simon shook his head a

“Fvck! Fvck! Fvck!” Sebastian cursed loudly as the car finally stopped on the side of the road. His hands were trembling as he was scared for Carmina. Although the woman has sinned him, it can't just erase his care for her as he treated her as his real sister he never had. Suddenly, he regretted avoiding her. If something happened to her, he won't be able to forgive himself for not giving her a chance to apologize to him. He shut his eyes, he was still in panic about not knowing where Sandra was and not to mention about the press conference that was currently happening. And he felt like his energy suddenly got drained after knowing that Carmina was taken while she was on the phone with them. His jaw clenched as he mentally cursed Thomas Mendez. He's going to blame everything on him because he was sure he was behind all of this. Immediately, he pulled out his phone and tried to contact Sandra again. “Try to call Carmina again!” He then ordered Simon while he was busy with his pho

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.

“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.

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.

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
