LANCE POV

-

“What do you both need?” I asked the two people directly in front of me.

“What is right for me, and for my son, ” Uncle Philip answered.

A teasing smile spread across my lips. They want to reclaim what is not theirs, the company that my parents founded and the organization that was run by my father’s grandparents, my father, and my half-brother that he gave me. I can’t count how many times they’ve tried to take it from me, even working with other organizations, but not once have they ever claimed it from me.

All the property left to me is about to be transferred to my name, so here they are again, causing trouble. I can’t give them what my parents left for me and my half-brother. They chose to give it to me because they knew I could take better care of it, which I have done and proven to everyone.

“All the money and property left by my brother and our father should go to the real Ladezma. And what is your last name again?”

“And to whom did my father and grandmother leave th

    HENDRIX MORGAN POV-As soon as I entered the mansion, I found out Lucian was here because we had an important guest coming. I wasted no time and went straight to his room. I knocked on his bedroom door several times, but he wouldn’t open it. I had to call Butler Leo and order him to get the duplicate key, and he arrived a few moments later with what I ordered.“What’s the problem?” Butler Leo invoked as he handed over the duplicate key.“Nothing. Leave.”“But, Master—”“We’ll talk after I finish talking to my brother. Now, leave!”I caught a sharp look at Butler Leo, who understood he shouldn’t interfere this time.He bowed his head in respect. “I understand, Master.”He also had a lot to tell and explain to me. When we came back to New York, he was the one Lucian was with the most and was the only one who knew about the stupidity Lucian had done.After unlocking Lucian’s room door, I went in and saw he had just finished talking to someone on the other line of his phone.“What do you

    CELINE POV-“Do we really need to—”“Shut up.” Sabrina stopped me from talking again.After dropping off my children earlier, we went home, and Sabrina ordered me to take a shower again, which I did. As I left the bathroom, she dragged me to the living room where she had set up a make-up studio. There were lighting, mirrors, and other tools.I still can’t imagine how Sabrina was able to set up like this in almost an hour knowing she was slow to move.She finished blow-drying my hair, and now she started doing my makeup after she prepped my face.“I don’t have anything planned for today,” I said. “Maybe, let’s just eat in a restaurant?” I asked her.“I’m busy today,” she replied. “Close your eyes.”“Then, I’ll just cook?”Sabrina narrowed her eyes on me. “Close your eyes,” she ordered.I close my eyes first.It’s my day, just like Sabrina said. Today is my birthday, but I don’t feel any excitement or anything special; it just feels like an ordinary day. All that matters to me is being

    SABRINA RODRIGUEZ POV-It’s so annoying to see Conrad’s face. I don’t want to see his face anymore, and yet it seems like fate is still working for us to meet over something small. Every time I glimpse his face, I think about how stupid I am. I don’t understand why the way he treats me and is concerned more than a friend; he has another woman he likes and no one else but his friend Hannah.When he learned Hannah was in the hospital, he couldn’t rest, especially since he couldn’t call her. He almost turned his suite room upside down and only calmed down after talking to Hannah. Only then did he realize he didn’t mean to yell at me, and then he apologized for doing that.I get it; he was worried about Hannah. I get that person was a friend—but his worry; it’s different. There’s something he’s hiding. It can be seen and felt that his worry and anxiety that day were more than a friend. That’s not what I hate about him, but how he treats me is what’s annoying. I feel like he made me reboun

    CELINE POV-Here’s my tear again while looking around. I smile and quickly wipe away the teardrop before it even falls down my cheek.I was taken to a high-end and exclusive restaurant where Lance rented the entire building. It was quite far from the hotel, which took more than an hour to travel.When I looked around again I smiled. The only light at this time was the scented candles that each table had. What made the ambiance even finer was the night view from where I was sitting overlooking the bright city lights outside the glass wall. Each table had a single red rose flower and on my table there was a bouquet of red roses.The surroundings were quiet until my attention was caught by a server who went to three tables and replaced the scented candles there. She checked on me and smiled at me.“Ma’am, would you like us to serve food for you? We have an appetizer ready for you.”“No,” I refused. I coughed softly because I felt my throat tighten and dry. “Can I have a glass of water?”

    CELINE POV-I couldn’t move from where I was standing as I turned to look at the man who uttered my name.My forehead wasn’t wrinkled, but my body was full of wonder as I looked at him, and I was sure the question was, 'why is he here?' was printed all over my face.What’s going on? Why is he here? Why is he in front of me? Why is he in front of me in this situation?“Hendrix?” I utter hoarsely.After seeing his face, my tears came back to my eyes; I felt again the pain in my back from sitting for over five hours and the hunger I was feeling. Most of all, the hope may be that the proposal was from Lance.I couldn’t make a mistake in my gaze; I’ve been looking at his face for a few seconds, and his appearance hasn’t changed. I also couldn’t be hallucinating because there was no reason why I should see him in my mind. I never thought about him after our last encounter.Why is he here? Why isn’t the person I expected and waited for here? Why isn’t Lance in front of me now? Where is he?

    CELINE POV-“You should have let the woman kneel down earlier,” my eyebrows furrowed at Hendrix’s words. “Or you should have let her terminate her job.”Is that the kind of person he is? He likes seeing other people suffer? Didn’t he think about that person’s situation? Maybe that person’s job was too valuable to her. That person wouldn’t dare to lower her knee to the ground if she did not badly need the job.“Don’t judge me,” he said, laughing.He read my thoughts?He faced me, he crossed his legs, and rested his elbow on the table. “Someone like her needs to learn a lesson; she needs to pay for her mistake—that’s all I’m saying. It’s not just the surprise that that person ruined but also your feelings. That person not only ruined the surprise for you but also your feelings. She hurt you badly, and your mind was confused by what happened. Who wouldn’t think and be glad that you were expecting someone, but then the wrong person would come in front of you?

    CELINE POV-“Thank you,” I said with a smile to the manager and the female server who served me a glass of water earlier when I saw them in the lobby.“Ma’am, wait!” They exclaim at the same time.I stopped walking when they ran towards me.“I want to apologize again for what happened earlier,” the woman regretfully said.“I also want to apologize for my negligence,” the manager said and bowed his head.“Don’t think about that. It’s okay,” I told them. “Is that all you want to say?”“Ah, no.” They suddenly panicked.The manager handed me a paper bag. I took it and peeked at the contents. Inside the paper bag was a suit coat and a familiar calling card.“What is this for?” I asked.“Sir Hendrix Morgan left those. He asked me to give you the paper bag.”I returned the paper bag to the manager, but he didn’t take it.“Give it back to him,” I stated.The manager took a deep breath. “I…” then he exhaled, and his face was covered with worry. “I’m sorry, ma’am.

I had no choice but to just believe what he said. I didn’t have anything with me except the mini makeup kit in the purse I was carrying.“Where are you taking me?”“To my gift for you.”“Gift?”“Don’t you accept late gifts?”“No. That’s not what I meant.”I didn’t explain anymore, and I didn’t open my mouth for a while.I’ll wait until we get to where he wants to go, so his nonsense can end.“We’re almost where we’re going,” I heard him say as I looked out the window.————About ten minutes later, he stopped in front of an amusement park.“Come on!” He was so excited that he even giggled.I laughed a little at his reaction.I also got out of the car.

    CELINE POV-“Are you sure of what you are saying?” I asked her.“Yes,” she answered confidently. “Conrad went to the restaurant to meet you there. He can’t call Sir Lance's phone either.”“Conrad couldn’t call Lance’s phone number?” I assured her.“Yes.”Is it just a coincidence that Lance’s phone number couldn’t be called and he didn’t come?“Celine!”I looked at Sabrina in surprise after she yelled at me right in my face.“Why?”“I am asking you why you are not with Sir Lance. Did you know someone rang the doorbell yesterday, and then I checked the intercom? The man had his back turned, but I doubt it was Sir Lance; that’s why I didn’t open it. Because Conrad told me not to open the door if he’s not the one outside. I’m not one hundred percent sure if it’s Sir Lance because he has his back turned and seems to be talking to someone on the phone.”I assumed Lance had come here. Maybe something unexpected happened that made him not arrive?“CELINE!”I felt like I was going to be deafe

    CELINE POV-Hendrix extended his palm. “Shall we go in together?” He asked me.We toured the theme park, rode the few rides we had planned to ride before, and we also played the machine games as well as the arcade games.Now we were in front of the Ferris wheel, and we planned to ride it last.“No, thank you.” I refused the hand he offered.I rode the Ferris wheel first and as he rode someone locked the door and started it.During the few hours I was with Hendrix, I didn’t think about anything else. I tried to focus and try to enjoy this place.Once we reached the top, the Ferris wheel stopped whirling.It was scary, but I still found myself smiling slightly after I saw almost the entire theme park.“The Ferris wheel is actually what you've wanted to ride the most since then.”I nodded without taking my gaze down. “The way you drew the Ferris wheel before, it was colourful, and you could see a lot from just one seat. Then it was close to the stars, and this is the exact one you showed
