Gotta Be You Chapter 23: Ignore
Chapter 23 | ignoreTrue to her words, Sandra Mendez didn't bother Sebastian anymore after that day. Two weeks have passed and he only had seen her twice in Mr. Park's office and a few minutes inside his studio with Bammie and Levi for their song's final touch.The woman always sent her secretary to monitor any updates regarding the songs for other artists, or often gave a sudden phone calls for an urgent discussions since then and nothing more. He didn't hear anything from her, other than work related and her rumors with Dominic Chua, that unfortunately was still circulating. He was lying to himself if he says he wasn't bothered at all because damn he was. He felt unsettled and couldn't even sleep at night for thinking too much, and because of the pang of guilt he felt for lying and using Carmina as an excuse to save himself. He just realized how selfish he was for thinking only himself, not even thinking of the aftermath and now he couldn't ignore it anymore.He clicked his tongue w

Christian Choi was young and masculine. His arms were full of tattoos that gave him a badboy aura. If Sandra didn't call him, he would mistaken him as a celebrity. "Sebastian Lee, right?" Christian approached him. He could only nod. "Sandra said that I should get your opinion about the story line. So, I'm here to invite you to watch the drafts and choose which one you think should be included in the music video," he explained then instructed one of the staff to play the first scene on the screen in front of him. Sebastian complied obediently and took advantage to point out the scenes he thought were best. If he could help them save money and time, he will do it. It's for his song anyway."Two? Really?" Christian frowned then tilted his head and looked at him in amusement. "And here I thought everything was boring," he muttered while shaking his head. He then tapped Sebastian's shoulder and mumbled thank you before leaving him alone again.Sebastian's brows furrowed while his gaze

Bammie was giggling alone when Sandra went back to her seat. She raised her eyebrows to her best friend and noticed the vacant seat in between them."Where's Sebastian?" she quiried."He left without saying anything," Bammie grinned with amused expression as she can't get over how Sebastian reacted.Sandra's forehead slightly creased as she tilted her head. "Why?" "He's jealous!" Bammie giggled again, "If you just saw it Sandra, you'll gonna take back your words about him" Sandra shook her head as the corner of her lips tugged upward. There's no way she's gonna have a change of heart. She's a woman with principles and of her words."Sebastian doesn't like me," she pointed out. She felt her heart constricted with her last words all of a sudden. She knew that it's not just her pride that had been stepped on. It was more than her big ego that really saddened her. She's never been indenial to herself with her feelings towards Sebastian. She knew that what she felt for him was not just

Dim and colorful lights, loud music, smell of smoke and alcohol welcomed Sebastian as he stepped inside the club where Bammie threw the victory party for the success of her first single collaboration with Levi."This is the room, Sir" the waiter said and led him in front of the closed door then left. Sebastian stared at it and internally debating whether to knock or leave the place. He really didn't want to go and he tried to convince himself to just go back home and sleep. However, he knew he's just deceiving himself if he says he'd like to be alone because he was certain he's going to regret it as much as he regretted refusing Simon to go with him earlierHe groaned and ruffled his hair. His heart thumped wildly as stood there frozen on his spot. He can faintly hear the noise behind the door and it made him more nervous knowing that the room were already filled with people he didn't personally know except for his friends, Simon, Bammie and Sandra. He took a deep breath before ex

Bammie was beaming crazily at Sebastian after mentioning pointing at Levi. "Sandra was bothered after doing his make up for the scene 11," she said with her eyes glittering.Sebastian didn't respond but his eyes never left Sandra again. His mind wondered as to why did that freaking lips marking bothered her? Did she felt something while doing that? Or did she freaking liked kissing Levi's face, neck and upper body that much she can't forget it? He shook his head and dismissed the thought quickly. He groaned inwardly and massaged his temples. He didn't like the idea of Sandra liking someone else. "When.. will you confess the truth to Sandra?" Bammie questioned all of a sudden after a long silence. "The time is ticking, Sebastian. The longer you wait, the lower your chances are to be forgiven" she said without waiting for his answer. Sebastian stared at drunk Bammie. He will suspect her just acting like drunkard, but her flushed face and slurred words was enough reason to debunk his

Sandra's steps abruptly halted when someone blocked her way. Her brows furrowed as she saw Carmina was looking at her with the same expression like she'd always seen years ago."Sandra.." she trailed.Sandra raised her eyebrows and crossed her arms despite feeling a bit dizzy with the alcohol she had taken. "Are you here to confront me of what I did to Sebastian?" she asked straightforwardly. She knew the two didn't have a romantic relationship but she's not certain of what Carmina was feeling towards Sebastian.Carmina quickly shook her head as an answer then fished out something inside her chanel tote bag and handed it to her. "I guessed this is yours?"Sandra squinted her eyes on the pink notebook. She knew that notebook damn well to recognize it even if she's intoxicated. It's the missing notebook she's been looking for. "Where did you get this?" she frowned as she grabbed the notebook from her hand."I saw that in Sebastian's studio. I apologize for reading it because I had to k

Sebastian kept his eyes closed as one particular song kept on playing repeatedly in his studio. It was his first composition that was written years ago that reminds him everything from the past. He sighed when he heard the door creaked."It's been a long time since I last heard this song," Carmona commented then sat next to him. "How are you feeling now?" she asked.He opened his eyes and scowled at the woman. "I should be the one asking you that. Why are you even here?" Carmina shrugged and put her bag on the center table. "Mr. Park told me that the demo of my song is already in your hands. I want to listen to it," she said excitedly.He didn't respond but the crease on his forehead remained. Sandra probably told Mr. Park about the pink envelope that she gave him weeks ago, which he was scared of opening for days thinking it might be something bad news. Took him weeks to have the courage to see what's inside only to find out that its the lyrics of the song made for Carmina and Zion'

"Miss Sandra, Mr. Cruz is here," Jamaica said from the intercom. Sandra's brows furrowed, "Mr. Cruz of Seven Entertainment?" she asked, wondering as to why the CEO of the said company suddenly visited without noticed. "Mr. Levi Cruz, Miss Sandra," Jamaica corrected."Levi?" she repeated, more surprised. Levi have never ever showed up in her office without informing her first. He's not the type to give surprise visits just because he felt like it. Curiously, she told Jamaica to let him in. She saved the file she's typing on the computer first, then leaned on her swivel chair and waited for the door to open. Her eyes were fixated at the guy who elegantly strode inside with a grin plastered on his lips. "Are you surprised?" Levi asked as he kissed her on her cheek. "Yeah. Why didn't you call me first?""Sometimes, we need to change our ways for fate will follow our heart's desire," he replied meaningfully with a shrug. Sandra's brows knitted as she stared at him,"What's your hear

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.

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.

“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.

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
