1 - Meet up

"Are you excited about settling down?" his sister, Ashley, asked while he was busy arranging the papers in his hands. "Next question," he replied without looking at her. "Are you excited about settling down?" she asked again. This time, he stared at her intently. "Isn't there any other question?" he said with a frown. "Brother, it's written in the questionnaire," she explained, showing him the folder she was holding. So persistent, sister. He was busy checking and reviewing pending paperwork, yet his sister insisted on talking about settling down—something he had no interest in. Deciding to ignore her, he sighed. His head ached at the mere thought of the marriage agreement. Who wouldn’t get a headache from being forced into a marriage they didn’t want? Ashley waited for his response, but he simply smiled and leaned back in his swivel chair. After a while, she grew impatient. Crossing her arms, she raised an eyebrow at him, staring directly into his eyes. "It's a simpl...

2 - Meet up 2.0
Her voice was so warm and stunning to hear. His heart thumped wildly. "Are you okay?" Garnet asked when he didn't move. What was he supposed to do? Why did he feel this unusual sensation? Why, all of a sudden, did just hearing her sweet voice send his system into a riot? "John," she muttered. He swallowed the lump in his throat before forcing himself to face her. She had an innocent look, yet her smile was fancy and dazzling. Her straight blonde hair cascaded down her waist in soft curls. Her nose was perfectly shaped, her lips luscious, and her long dark lashes accentuated her not-so-big brown eyes. He noticed her fair, flawless complexion, which stood out even more against her light blue champagne sequin dress. Her slender body complemented her elegant attire. Her height was also ideal. At 5'8", she was perfectly within his preferred range—tall but not more than 6'0". She looked like a supermodel, exuding both charm and elegance. Sensual, but in a refined way. "Let's

3 - Marriage is the key
He went back inside his office after he forgot something. He opened his drawer, took out a comb, and faced the desk mirror. "Be presentable, CEO John. You're facing the heiress of Sytone Diadem Company," he muttered while gently combing his hair. But after a moment, he questioned himself—why was he making an effort to look good for her? Did he want to attract her? No, she was just a woman. This is ridiculous. Why can’t I get her face out of my mind? Is this just another fleeting admiration, or… something more? "Love?" a voice interrupted his thoughts, his secretary came in. He shot a death glare at her. "I just brought another set of paperwork for you to review later, sir," she said, stifling a grin. Then, in a hushed tone, she added, "She's really beautiful," before quickly stepping out of the office. His heart was pounding again. Why did he suddenly feel drawn to this woman? Taking a deep breath, he finally stepped outside. As he walked toward Garnet, he was surpr

4 - A Mother's request
"Hi, hija! You’re really beautiful. Now, I’m even more excited to see my future grandchild," Diana greeted warmly, pressing a kiss on Garnet’s cheek. "Not really… just a little," Garnet responded shyly. John watched his mother closely. Her eyes sparkled with happiness and hope. For years, she had longed for him to settle down and give her grandchildren. Now, it seemed that dream was finally within reach. "I prepared a delicious meal. Would you like to eat first?" Diana offered. Garnet nodded in response, but John quickly noticed something—his mother hadn’t even glanced at him. Oh, so Garnet is her real child, not me. "Kuya!" Ashley’s voice cut through his thoughts as she rushed toward him. Finally, someone acknowledged his presence. She turned to Garnet with a mischievous grin. "Woah! Your fiancée is here," she teased, her tone laced with irritation and irritating his ear. 'Oh, c'mon Ashley... not this time.' John narrowed his eyes to her annoying sister. He still had

5 - Family Meeting
Evening – Family Dinner -JOHN'S POINT OF VIEW- I arrived at the Jacinth Building with my family, my mind already burdened with the weight of the evening ahead. Beside me, Ashley walked with an eager bounce in her step. My younger sister had always been enamored by luxury—especially gemstones—and now that we were here, in one of the most prestigious buildings in the city, she was practically glowing with excitement. She leaned in, whispering conspiratorially, “Kuya, I really want to buy some jewelry here.” I scoffed, shaking my head. “Of course, you do.” As we approached the entrance, I retrieved the pass card Garnet had given me days prior. Security was as tight as ever. Even being associated with one of the most powerful families wasn’t enough to bypass protocol. The guards scrutinized every guest, checking identification, and ensuring only the right people got through. Our car was directed toward the VIP section, a privilege that came with our status. A guard stationed t
