Gotta Be You Chapter 29: Realize
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'
Gotta Be You Chapter 30: Heart's Desire
"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
Gotta Be You Chapter 31: Daisy
Sandra closed her eyes and pinched the bridge of her nose. "Stop it, Bammie," she commanded. But her best friend did not seem to understand the word 'stop' for she continued replaying the song that Sebastian submitted earlier together with the polished version of Carmina and Zion's collaboration song. "This song really describes you, Sandra! That 'Your long wavy hair bounces when you walk like you own the world' is so you!" she exclaimed in such giddiness. She rolled her eyes. Regretting as to why did she let Bammie listen to that song. Now, she has to suffer hearing it repeatedly. She can't no longer concentrate on her paper works because it was distracting her. Shaking her head then sighed. Regrets always comes last."Oh my gosh, Sandra!" Bammie gasped, surprising her."What is it now?" she scowled. She really thought she spoiled her best friend too much that's why she acted like that. "Look!" Bammie exclaimed and showed the screen of the phone she's holding. "The monsters is c
Gotta Be You Chapter: 32: Chase
Sebastian's heartbeat thumped wildly and it was ready to jump out of his ribcage in no time. He was mentally calling all saints and praying she'll accept the cheap flower. "Thanks," Sandra chirped as she grabbed the daisy from his hand with a huge smile. He badly wanted to jump in joy and fist pump in the air, but he restraint himself for doing so because he will just utterly embarrass himself if he did.He never knew giving a flower to a woman was such a nerve wracking task to do so. He never have done that before to anyone, for he didn't have much guts to do that personally, and became contented looking from afar, while watching the person receiving his gifts by the delivery man. His lips almost ripped as it stretched widely, as if he's an agent whose mission has finally been accomplished successfully without any injury and any sort of. However, his smile immediately faded as he realized that he was still in the first step and there's a lot more baby steps he needed to go through
Gotta Be You Chapter 33: Heart
Sandra pinched the bridge of her nose as she waited for her secretary to give update about her father's whereabout. Based on the picture she'd saw, Thomas Mendez was seen in the airport and said by the articles that he's finally going to Seoul. She didn't see her stepmother in the picture though, and she didn't trust the media. However, she couldn't just assume that everything was just a hoax until the airline management confirmed it right. "Miss Sandra, the management of the airline said that there are no Thomas and Dina Mendez listed as the passengers arriving to Seoul today," Jamaica announced. She heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. "Thanks Jamaica, and please call Mr. Park right away and tell him we're back on the original plan again. Be specific and mention Carmina and Zion so there won't be misunderstandings. That's all. You can go back to your work now," she said then gave her a small smile. She leaned on the swivel chair as her mind swum deep in thoughts as to where did th
Gotta Be You Chapter 34: Like
Days have passed and Sandra constantly receiving daisies with little notes stuck on its stem twice a day, specifically every morning and before she leaves the office. She's starting to believe that maybe Bammie was right about guys, but she immediately dismissed the idea for she didn't want to assume things unless Sebastian would directly say it to her."No note?" she asked Jamaica as the latter handed her the same flower.Her secretary shook her head and bowed before leaving the office. She stared at the vase that has already seven daisies in it. She shrugged her shoulder and thought maybe Sebastian had finally ran out of cheesy words to say and decided to stop writing a note for her. She was busy the whole day with her meetings and didn't notice the time until Jamaica showed up and told her that Bammie called to ask her out for dinner at their favorite restaurant. She nodded and told her secretary to join them, but the latter refused and said she needed to go home early, which was
Gotta Be You Chapter 35: Defeat
Chapter 35 | SurpriseBammie squinted her eyes on Sebastian, while the latter seemingly unfazed after being left out by Sandra Mendez. She sighed and folded her arms over her chest as she finally spoken."Sebastian Lee" her voice was firmed and startled Sebastian. "Mind to tell me what happened?" she asked while tapping her fingers.Sebastian blinked thrice before turning to look at Bammie. He saw the woman raising her eyebrows on him and looked impatient already. His shoulders slumped then as he propped his elbows on the table and covered his face with his palms."I told her I like her," he replied in a muffled sound.Bammie didn't know if she will be happy at what she just had heard or not because the guy in front of her looked so defeated. He did what he has to do, confess. However, based on his action, the result was not on his side for him to look dejected. She had a hunch that the dinner didn't went well because her best friend left earlier that what she expected. She wanted to
Gotta Be You Chapter 36: Phone Call
Sandra folded her arms acrossed her chest as she arched her eyebrows to Bammie. The latter, on the other hand, grinned at her mischievously and showed her a peace sign the moment she hopped inside the car."Stop whatever you're planning. You're just wasting your time. I'm not going to change my mind," she quickly said before Bammie could open her mouth. Sandra was not happy about knowing that her best friend was into pairing her up again. She knew well how much she hated it for she already did it before, setting her up to a man she didn't like and obviously, it didn't go well. She didn't want for history to repeat itself, especially that the guy was Sebastian Lee. She didn't want to do anything with him and she knew she's just gonna hurt him if they still insist to go on. "You've waited for me for half an hour. How did you even know that I'm here?" Bammie asked curiously. "I'm not waiting for you," Sandra retorted without looking at her. Bammie followed where her best friend's gaz

SPECIAL CHAPTERSebastian narrowed his eyes at the smiling face of Sandra. 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

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
Gotta Be You Chapter 171: Certificate
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
