TRAVIS He was annoyed when he turned off the alarm clock on his side table. “D*mn, my head hurts so much. I'm really lacking sleep. Lately, I've been going to this VIP bar where Mayell hangs out. I watch her from afar and keep an eye on her. And earlier, I came home in the early morning because I followed her to make sure she got home safely to her condo.” He sat on the bed and picked up his cellphone. He furrowed his brow when Aaliyah's text message appeared on his phone. He wondered why his wife was texting him, as she never usually does. In the early morning hours, Aaliyah vented her frustrations last night about how he was being treated. He opened the text to read it. As he read it, he felt like cold water had been poured on the seat he was sitting on. “Good morning, Travis. "First of all, I'm sorry and thank you. I hope you will be happy now. I hope you can get Mayell so you won't have to struggle anymore. Travs, as you read this message, I

While Travis and his parents were talking, Trish had been listening. She had been sitting on the top step of their staircase, listening to what her brother was saying as he tried to explain why Eunice had left the mansion. Because they were all busy, they didn't notice her presence. When she couldn't take it anymore, she stood up and walked down the stairs. `Prepare yourself, brother;I will avenge my friend. You are my sibling, but I will choose my best friend, who you mistreated and did not value.` she said to herself. “Really, brother? Did you two really not understand each other, or is there another reason why Eunice left?” she asked seriously as she walked towards them. Her father, mother, and brother turned to look at her. “Trish,” Travis said weakly. Despite his soft tone, there was still a hint of a threat. “What? Are you afraid they'll find out why my best friend Xs left us? That's why my friend left me! " She suddenly raised her voice. This w

“The validity of their marriage is only for one year. That's what my older brother told Eunice's dad, and during that one year, whenever you're around, they should pretend to be sweet so that you won't notice that they're not okay. You should think that their relationship is improving because my brother doesn't want to be tied down for too long. He said that to Eunice because he still loves Mayell. Every night, he goes to that woman just to watch over her and just to catch a glimpse of her. Eunice knows all of that, but she understood my brother and endured everything for him. That's how much my friend loves him. Troy looked at his eldest son, trembling in disbelief at what he had just heard. He gave his son a stern look. “Is it true, Travis?! Is everything your sister said true?! Your marriage contract is only valid for one year!? Did you meddle with it?” He shouted in anger. He was about to stand up, but his wife stopped him. “Honey, calm down. You might hurt

Travis composed himself and looked at his sister. “You!” He said pointing his sister. Trish raised an eyebrow at her brother's reaction. Was he pretending again? She thought to herself. “What?” she replied grumpily. Suddenly, her brother messed up her hair, “What the.. brother! What are you doing!?” She annoyingly pushed his hand away, but then she saw her brother's genuine smile. “Thank you for your words; what you said woke me up. I really have been acting like an idiot. I even dragged Aaliyah into my foolishness.” Trish stood up and faced her brother. “Well, it's good that you realise your mistake. It had to happen for you to see what you've done wrong. Now fix yourself up and find my best friend. But let me tell you this, it's hard to find someone who doesn't want to be found, so you need a lot of patience. Right now, Eunice has been missing for two days, and we're having a hard time finding her, so you need to have patience and do everything you can

“What!? Why? Why didn't she agree? Did you do everything?” Travis asked, slightly irritated. “Yes, brother. I even went to her company to talk to her, but I only talked to her secretary,” Trish replied sadly. She was excited because they had already chosen a model for the company event and a designer but everything was gone. Looks like they need to search again. “D*mmit, why didn't she accept? Why didn't she agree to be a model and a designer? We're even going to pay her a big amount,” Travis exclaimed. “I don't know either, brother. Others I talked to there said they don't have any other projects right now, and they have free time, so I was wondering. Then I told her secretary if I could talk to her, but she really refused, so I just went back to the company. What do we do now, brother? Should we just look for someone else?” Travis rubbed his forehead. He thought everything would be fine once they found a model and a designer, but it turns out it wasn't easy to

This was her job, and she shouldn't refuse it. She couldn't keep hiding; they were both in the same industry, so it wasn't unlikely that their paths would cross. She wasn't known to them; she was just needed for the event and also needed it for her business. “You're right, Ja, but what I'm thinking is when Trish sees me. It's impossible for her not to recognize me or at least sense something. My friend has a strong radar when it comes to me. And besides... How am I going to face her after what I did? I left without a word, I didn't even tell her where I was going. I'm scared that she's already so mad with me. I didn't even appreciate what she did to help me before.” She said sadly. She wasn't yet ready to face her friend. For her, what she did was a huge mistake. “Don't think like that, Trish won't hold a grudge against you. Maybe she'll be upset for a while, but mad? Impossible. And you only left without telling her because we heard that she's already very close with he

While Travis… He didn't know what he was feeling when he saw Alice Mendez. His heart was beating fast, and he couldn't figure out why. As soon as the young woman entered, their eyes met. He couldn't take his eyes off her, as if someone were telling him to look at her and remove the mask on her face. He just shook his head and composed himself. “Hello, Ms. Alice Mendez. Thank you for accepting our offer. We're happy to be able to work with someone like you,” Emily, Trish's team leader, said. Alice smiled. “I'm also happy to work with you and be a part of your event. Anyway, what should I prioritize? Designing gowns or modelling jewelry?” Alice didn't beat around the bush. She wanted to finish the meeting and leave her ex's company. She read the folder containing Dela Cerna Industry's offer to her yesterday. She found out that the models would be wearing gowns, and hers should be unique and suitable for the jewelry line. Not only that, there were also ba

After a while, the door suddenly opened. We turned our heads, and I was shocked to see Travis enter. He was wearing the same color as I was—even his mask was a copy of mine! Our eyes met as he walked toward me. “Ms. Alice,” he said with a smile. “Mr. Dela Cerna! I didn't expect that you would be my partner in this shoot. I wasn't informed,” I said with a slight laugh. “I'm sorry, Ms. Alice. Is it okay with you that I'm your partner?” he asked. `What can I do if I say that I don't want you as my partner? Tss.` I thought to myself as I smiled at him. “Of course, it's my pleasure to have the CEO of Dela Cerna Industry as my partner in this shoot,” I replied, and he nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to speak, the photographer called us over. “Alright! Mr. Dela Cerna, Ms. Alice, come to the front,” the photographer instructed. I stood up, and Travis quickly moved to support me toward the front. When his hand touched my arm and waist, I

Travis “What's bothering me, Hubby, is who he is. Why was he looking at me? Or let's say, at the house? It's suspicious because people don't just enter this place without living here.” As I listened to my wife, I could hear the fear in her voice as she recounted the story. I turned my gaze back to the gate outside. She's right, you don't just enter this subdivision; security is tight. It is suspicious. Or maybe he has strong connections, so he got in easily. When money is involved, people change. They follow orders easily. I wondered if the person Aaliyah saw and the one who sent me the dead bird were the same. Tsk. It's not impossible... this has started, and he targeted my wife first. “Does Trish know this?”I asked before gently pulling her closer to put my arm around her shoulders. I noticed her rubbing her arm, a sign that she was uncomfortable. “Yes, I told her. I couldn't settle down that night; I couldn't sleep well because of the fear, Hubby. I wanted to tell yo

Travis What the heck is this? Who sent me this kind of sh*t?! My forehead furrowed as I saw a piece of paper inside the box. Slowly, I came over and took it. Something was written, so I read it. 'Congratulations on the merger of Dela Cerna Corp and TDC clothing line, as well as the fashion show. You look very happy and contented, Dela Cerna, but bad news – gradually, your happy days will end soon. Good luck! Ps: I hope you like my little gift to you, Dela Cerna. See you soon...' D*mn it! Who is this? I clenched my fist with the paper. Then I threw it back in the box. Angrily, I went to my swivel chair and faced the intercom to call my secretary. “Santos, come here, now!” I slammed my hand on the intercom, then leaned back on my swivel chair, massaging my temples. The door opened. “Yes, sir? What do you need--Holy sh*t!” Santos paused, unable to believe what he saw – a dead bird on the floor. He looked at me with concern before fully entering. “Lock the door,”

Aaliyah I was busy designing Mr. Tan's tuxedo when the door opened. I didn't bother to look up. “Mam Aaliyah?” It's Jam, my secretary; she was the one who entered. “Yes? Do you need something, Jam?” I answer without looking at her. My attention was still focused on what I'm doing. “This is the copy of the contract signed by the models that you requested,” she politely said. I nod and gesture for her to just place them on the side of my table. She quietly follows my instruction. “Thank you, Jam,” I express my gratitude after she's done. “Welcome, Mam. Do you need anything else? Would you like coffee or juice?” she asks again. “No, not for now. I'll ask for juice later when I finish what I'm working on. You can go out; I'll call you when I send for the juice. Thank you,” I reply, my gaze still on the sketch pad. “Okay, Mam. I'll leave now,” she nods and exits. Suddenly, I remember something I need to ask Jam. When I look up, she's near the door, so I quickly

I was surprised when all the models greeted me with applause backstage. They were happily clapping. “You were amazing, Tita Aaliyah!” “We watched you on the screen here; you were absolutely fantastic.” “Congrats, Mom! You were still amazing!” “You're truly legendary, Mam Aaliyah!” “You looked so sexy walking earlier, Mam Aaliyah. Your presence was captivating.” “You're really different on stage, Mam Aaliyah. You carried yourself so well.” “Yes, especially when Mam Aaliyah winked at Sir Travis!” “Yeah, it was so romantic! You and Sir are a perfect match!” I suddenly felt embarrassed by the comments from the adult models. Gosh, they saw that. But it's heartwarming that they're all here to congratulate me. They really waited for me to finish. “Thank you, thank you! You really surprised me. You were all amazing earlier. Remember what I said, okay? Don't rush back to the backstage immediately after our final walk. I have an announcement, okay?” They

It still feels different when someone admits to you that they idolize you. I didn't expect it to be like this. And it's evident from her that she idolizes me because she even knew about my past role as Alice Mendez. It seems like she noticed and read my thoughts. She chuckled modestly while holding one of my hands. “It may not be obvious, but I'm your fan, Miss Aaliyah. I'm glad to finally see you. I tried several times to meet you, but it never matched my schedule,” she explained with a smile that made her even more beautiful, if I'm not mistaken. Trishana mentioned to me that Vivien is one of her admired models. She'll surely be delighted when she finds out she's here. “She's telling the truth, Mrs. Dela Cerna. She really insisted on coming with me. We almost had a disagreement at first because I didn't want to bring her,” Mr. Montenegro said with a smile before turning to his wife. “If you didn't bring me today, I would have ignored you for a week, and you wouldn't be

Before we could reach our husband, there were many visitors who blocked our way to greet us, exchange pleasantries, and take pictures. Trisha was even subtly pinching my arm, eager to approach her husband. But what could we do? We couldn't just leave the guests. That's why we went outside to help Travis talk to the guests. However, we weren't able to join them.When a waiter passed by, she even got wine, taking two and giving me one. Tsk, she forgot that I wasn't going to drink even if it's just a little. I'm going to walk on the stage later. But it's okay, I won't finish it. I might enjoy it later.If the husband hadn't called the woman we were talking to, she wouldn't have left. “Finally, I thought we wouldn't be able to leave. Come on! Walk faster so we can get to our husbands.” She pulled me, disregarding our appearance and posture. We were getting close when Travis noticed me. His serious face earlier slowly brightened when he saw me. A beautiful smile appeared on his

AaliyahEvent Day As early as noon, Trish and I were already at the company to check the auditorium if everything was in order and nothing was missed. Trish was assigned to check everything, including the catering. Travis trusted her to make sure everything was okay. Meanwhile, I was busy with the dresses that the models were going to wear. The makeup artists arrived early and set up their equipment. They arranged their makeup on the vanity mirrors in the dressing room. The models should start getting ready at exactly three o'clock.. We told them to come early and not be late. Everyone was busy with their assigned tasks. I was just finishing up my work, So that when it's my turn to get make up, everything would be settled and there would be no more problems. At 2 pm, other models started to arrive, including my daughter who was super excited.“Sweetie, you're early. Where are your friends? Aren't they with you?” I asked her sweetly as she moved away from my embrace.

Trish and I continued to fix the dresses. We're bringing them down to the first floor, where the models' dressing room will be. Good thing my headache cooperated and went away before noon. Now I'm observing the people setting up the Auditorium. They're arranging the tables, chairs, and lights. I was in that state when I felt hands creeping around my waist. I smiled because just from the scent alone, I already knew who it was - my husband. No one else would give me a back hug like that. “How are you feeling, Wife? I bumped into Trisha, she told me you had a headache earlier. Are you okay now?” He asked affectionately but with a hint of concern. I was surprised by what he said. Trish can be really talkative sometimes. She even told her brother. But that's just how she is. When it comes to serious matters, I can always count on my friend. “I'm okay now, Hubby. I already took some medicine,” I replied while still watching the people fixing the lights. “Are you sure? Why

Aaliyah I was sitting on my swivel chair with my eyes closed, feeling sleepy and having a headache because I didn't sleep well. I'm disturbed by the person I saw in front of our house last night. I can't get it out of my mind. It's really scary that someone was watching us. But it's strange because the subdivision has strict management and only well-known people live there. Prominent individuals. The person standing in front of the house was wearing a jacket and a hat, so I couldn't tell if it was a man or a woman. And the question is, what is he/she doing at this time of night in front of our house, wearing that kind of outfit? Even though I didn't see his/her face, I'm sure he/she was looking at me, at our room with Travis. Because of what happened, I couldn't sleep well and now I have a headache when I have so many things to do. I went to work early today because I still have to prepare the clothes that the models will wear tomorrow. We're getting ready for four outfit chan
