Xander was caught off guard by Arabella's question, and he smiled nervously, trying to find the right words to cover up. "I mean, girls are mostly sensitive, right? That's what I meant, since I've witnessed my sister being sensitive most of the time," he stammered, clearly cursing himself for slipping his tongue.

Arabella, gazing at the sky, hummed softly, "Girls are sensitive, yes, but only when there's someone to protect us. When we realize there's no one by our side and that we need to take stand for someone else, we learn to be strong eventually. That's how I became strong too." The wind blew her hair gently, making the unshed tears in her eyes glisten like crystals.

Xander tucked her hair behind her ear, softened his tone for her. "There’s always someone you can depend on," he said staring into her deep eyes, "You just need to notice them."

Arabella quickly turned away to hide her blush, smiling as she agreed with him, "You're right, Mr. Xander. I do have someone I’ve always depe

She winced in pain, "Ahhh!"Viola who heard Arabella's scream quickly apologized rushing to check on Arabella, "Bella, I'm so sorry babe." Arabella rubbed her head as she walked inside with a sigh. "How on earth did you open the door without checking the other side, Vio? Ahhh this is so painful like hell.""I didn't expect you to be standing right outside, Bella, if you're to go in, rather than entering why on earth are you standing right behind the door?" Viola questioned her with a curious look.

    Arabella was deeply focused on her work when she got a message from Xander asking, "Can we meet today in the afternoon?" As she read the message, a smile spread across her face without her even realizing it. Zara, noticing the smile, can't help but to be curious to find the reason behind that smile, "What made you smiling like that?""Was I smiling?" Arabella asked, a bit surprised by Zara's question. Zara quickly turned on her camera and showed Arabella her own reflection. "Look at that beautiful smile of yours with gentle crimson share on your cheeks," Zara teased her.Arabella was a little surprised, not quite understanding why a simple message made her smile like that.

    "I was worried about you because of that day, and it made me think about you so much that I was anxious as if I almost missed your work," Xander said, causing Arabella to force an awkward smile, "Oh, I'm so sorry about that day. I really showed an awkward side of myself, usually I'm not like that."Xander smiled assuring her gently, "It's okay, Arabella, I understand, being emotional isn't something we can control." The way Xander spelled her name every time made her blush instantly, and Nova, watching from nearby, sighed quietly at the Xander's performance. "Sometimes I wonder if he's always acting, whether on-screen or off-screen. Look at how smoothly he delivers his lines as if the script was already prepared for him."Arabella took out her iPad, trying to focus on the work. "Can we talk about your mother's taste in jewelry?" Xander nodded and glanced at Nova, "Make sure we're not disturbed for a while.""Sure sir," Nova agreed before stepping out giving privacy to both Arabella an

She hurried to the car, and Xander chuckled softly as he followed her. He opened the car door for her and placed his hand above her head to make sure she didn’t bump it to the car. His kind gesture touched her.After closing the door, Xander leaned against the car window, "I hope to see you soon." Arabella's eyes widened as he smiled. "I mean, I hope to see you soon with the rough sketch," he clarified though first thing is what he meant to say.

    "What does she mean by postponing the wedding?" Natalie stammered fearing the worse to be happening. Rosaline and Neil exchanged glances before Rosaline said, "Let’s go to Brown's mansion. We’ll get our answers there." Three of them felt it was the best decision and went straight to Brown's mansion to demand an explanation for their decision about postponing of the wedding. As soon as they entered, the butler welcomed them and led them to the living room. Mrs. Brown came in, surprised to see them in her house. "Oh my goodness! What brings the three of you here so suddenly? I didn't even receive a call from you." Natalie quickly sat next to her with fake tears rushing off from her eyes.

I’ve always wanted you as my daughter-in-law," Mrs. Brown assured her, holding her hand with a smile. "But with all the pressure

    "Mr. Silver?" Arabella stood up from her chair, looking confused as she was baffled about what someone like Leonardo Silver is doing in this cafe and also his behaviour towards her. "What exactly are you trying to do, Mr. Silver?" Viola, watching everything like an audience, couldn't help but think, "Leonardo Silver, he's quite handsome," but she kept that thought to herself and decided to take a stand for Arabella, "What’s going on, Mr. Silver?"Leonardo handed Arabella's laptop to his assistant. "Check this out," he ordered with a sigh. His assistant quickly took the laptop from him and started checking along with the team, while Arabella looked even more puzzled by his atrocity. Leonardo crossed his arms finally concentrating on Arabella, "Ms. Arabella, COO of Starlight Jewels, before I handle things in my way for what you've done, why don't you confess the truth yourself? If you confess it by yourself, maybe I can forgive you."Arabella let out a sigh controlling her frustration,

That's when kids noticed Viola standing behind their mother."Aunt Vio!" they shouted, rushing over to her from Arabella, which made Arabella smile at their excitement to go to her friend.

    Veronica reached out, taking Arabella’s hand in hers. "Because he was scared, Bella. Scared that the truth would push you away just like how it is today, he thought keeping it from you was the only way to protect the love you both have for each other, though it wasn't the right choice, but it was made out of love, not malice."Arabella pulled her hand away, with teary eyes, "Love?" She scoffed. "How can I believe that it is love when everything he has done feels nothing but a lie?" "Bella," Veronica said gently, glancing at Arabella with a warm smile, "at this moment I can clearly tell how you feel, but all I want you to know is, Xander has never stopped loving you. These past six years, not a single day has gone by where he didn’t think about you, to him you means everything, you and kids are his world, so don't take any rash decisions Bella, after many years I seen him happy only when he is with you, I hope you'll consider your decision once again.'

    The night was sleepless for both Xander and Arabella, both of their minds consumed by the memories they shared together.Arabella sat on the bed, staring at the wedding ring she had left on the bedside table, she held it gently in her hands, the cool metal feeling heavier with every thought.She remembered the day she first met Xander, how he made her heart stop beating with his charm and quiet intensity.The nights they spent together, his whispered promises, and the warmth of his arms, but now, those memories felt like a nightmare, reminding all his betrayals."Did he truly loved me as he claimed? If so he would've told the truth, but he didn't, so it was never love," Arabella thought, her heart aching as tears filled in her eyes.She clutched her pillow tightly, trying to suppress her sobs. "Why does it hurt so much though I knew he is nothing but a cheat who made me a fool?" She whispered into the darkness.On the other side, Xander sat in his study, with a drink in his head, and

    "If I ever loved anyone in my life, it'll be only her," Xander said with his voice breaking slightly, "but I'm fighting to respect her decision, if staying with me only brings her pain, then maybe… maybe letting her go is the only way to give her peace." Nova frowned at Xander, "don't think such kind of crap, Xan, this isn’t about respecting her decision, it’s about you running away because you’re scared of facing her anger, and her disappointment, if you truly love her, you’ll fight harder than this."Xander looked down, with trembling hands, "Do you think I don’t want to fight? Do you think I haven’t heard the words she said, do you think I haven't witnessed every tear she shed? She hates me, Nova, she looks at me like I’m a monster, like I’m the one who destroyed her life, and maybe she’s right. Maybe I don’t deserve her forgiveness for what I did, after all I'm the one who collapsed her dreams and life." Xenon let out a frustrated groan, leaning forward. “Listen to me, uncle, yo

    "Xan, just don't give up, I don't think it's too late," Nova said while Xenon agreed with him, "Nova is right uncle, Bella will understand for sure if you try to explain, so don't take any rash decisions."

I’ve already lost everything, my life… it’s a joke already, isn’t it?" Viola frowned being confused by Arabella's words, ge
