2024-10-29 19:42:56(Third Person's POV)
Weeks have already passed since the incident happened during the Foundation Ceremony. Everything went back to normal.
Catherine went back to the university to continue her class despite her fear of being seen by President Lu. She can't afford to lose this job and find another one, so she has to act as if nothing happened. Continuing her life like how it was used to be.
Capital University is one of the top universities in Capital City. It is the school where prominent figures in the city graduated from.
With it being the top university, its standards and requirements for acceptance are quite high. The school made a lot of effort into choosing their students and also their staff.
The selection process is not limited to the students but also to their teaching personnel as well. All professors teaching at the university have a great background and professional experience.
It was quite hard for Catherine to be accepted

Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 15: Party
(Catherine POV) Monique and I are currently in a salon getting our makeover. Later this evening, we are attending Angel’s Collection Annual Anniversary. Monique was their brand ambassador, so it was a must for her to attend. It just so happened that she needed a chaperone, so she called me over. I don’t even have any idea how she managed to convince me to attend this event. The fact that I don’t really like attending any social gatherings makes me wonder why I am attending this. Flashback… It’s already late in the evening. I’m currently working on the course materials for my class. We are having a field study next week and this must be submitted to the dean before it gets approved. So, finishing it tonight would be the best thing. Monique is still at work. She called earlier saying that she would be home late since fashion week is only a couple of months away. Her schedule has been pretty tight lately preparing
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 16: Contract
(Monique’s POV)Ring! Ring!I woke up from my deep slumber because of the irritating sound from my phone. “Hello?!”“Monique! Thank God you finally answered the phone. I’ve been calling you a couple of times already!” So, it’s my manager.“What do you want? You just disturbed my sleep, didn’t you know that?”“What?! You’re still sleeping? It’s already past 9 in the morning! Hurry up and come to the office this instant!” She instantly hung up the phone before I could say my reply.‘What the hell is wrong with that psychopath old lady!’ That was my manager, Michelle Chua. She was given to me by the agency when I first started working there, so we’ve known each other for so many years already.We were not really on good terms. When I was still a newbie in this modeling career, she was my support. She gave me different opportunit
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 17: Dilemma
(Catherine’s POV) I saw the lights turned on in our apartment when I arrived. ‘Monique didn’t go to the agency today? It’s quite early’ As soon as I opened the door, I heard laughter echoing in the living room. I slowly closed the door and headed to where she was. There, I saw her watching a comedy film with a bowl of popcorn in her hands. “You didn’t go to work today?” She looked at me and smiled. “Nope, I resigned.” My brows furrowed when I heard her. I instantly sat near her and asked, “What do you mean you resigned? You left the agency?” She turned off the TV and put down her popcorn. “*Sigh* Yeah, I asked my manager to sign a termination contract earlier this morning. I think it’s already signed by now.” “Why? Your contract isn’t over yet and there are liquidated damages to pay. Why did you leave the agency anyway? Are you changing careers?” “It’s not that I’m changing careers. You know how much I love modeling, b
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 18: Nice To Meet You
(Catherine’s POV)“That’s all for today. Don’t forget our fieldwork tomorrow. I’m expecting everyone to be here early in the morning. Class dismissed.” I left the room and walked towards the teacher’s office.There are still some things to prepare for our fieldwork tomorrow. On the way to the office, my phone rang and saw that it was the principal who had called. “Hello, Mr. Principal?”“Yes, Catherine. Is your class done already?”“Yes sir. I’m currently walking back to the office. Is there something you want me to do sir?”“That’s good. Can you come to the office right now? There’s something I want to discuss with you.”“Okay, sir.” The call ended right after. ‘Why did the Principal call me? Is there something wrong?'The principal’s office is in the opposite direction from where the teacher&rs
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 19: Field Work
(Catherine’s POV) “Okay everyone, let’s have our lunch break since it’s near lunch already. Remember to be back here before 1:30 in the afternoon, okay? You may go now.” Half a day has already passed since the time I saw President Lu in the parking area of the university. I don’t know how I managed to get on the bus after what President Lu had said. Fortunately, he didn’t approach me again when we reached the venue. He was just at the corner observing the class. I breathed a sigh of relief because of that. I don’t think I could continue this activity if he approached me again. When all of my students were already having their lunch, I glanced around to see if President Lu was there but he was nowhere to be found. It would be great if he had already gone back to his office. I can now focus on my job without feeling anxious. Feeling elated, I headed to the restaurant near our location to get something to eat. I’m not really picky when it
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 20: Dinner
(Alexander’s POV) After our encounter in the parking lot, she finally agreed to have dinner with me. We left her car there and used my car instead. Fortunately, after that earlier episode, she finally managed to calm herself down. Silence is all that is heard on our way to the restaurant. I had already asked Secretary Lin to reserve a private room in the restaurant. When we arrived there, a few people were dining since it was already late in the evening. “Good evening President Lu. It’s a pleasure for us to have you here in our restaurant. Please follow me. I’ll lead you to your table.” The manager guided us to the second floor of the restaurant. This is where all the private rooms are located. I glanced at Catherine, who was silently following from behind. I stopped walking, which made the manager confused. “Is there something wrong President Lu?” Ignoring him, I turned around, which surprised Catherine. Her widened eyes tell how afra

(Monique’s POV)Earlier this morning, Jasmine called to tell me that she would be coming over-delivering some important news. It would be nice to have someone to have a chat with since I’m dying of boredom here.Catherine is, as usual, working at the university, while I don’t really have much interest right now in going out.Speaking of Catherine, she was acting strangely after she got home late last time. She came home late even if the only schedule she had at that time was her fieldwork. I’m sure something must have happened during that time. If not, why is she acting unusually?She looked tense and there were times that I caught her lost in a trance. This is so unlike her. I’m sure there’s something that’s bothering her, but I don’t want to annoy her just to feed up my curiosity. It’s best to wait until she speaks about it on her own accord.*Ding*Someone rang the doorbell. That must
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 22: Welcome To My World (Part 1)
(Michael’s POV) “Sir, I have already made a phone call to Ms. Yang and she agreed to come to the office tomorrow morning for the contract signing.” Director Chen explained when I called him over for a meeting. “That’s good. Do the contract signing immediately and make sure that the contract is very reasonable. Not too much or too less or else she will not sign it. I can just increase the benefits once she’s already signed up here at the company.” I know her very well. She will become suspicious if the contract states too many benefits. It’s not yet the right time for her to know that I’m the CEO of this company. “Excuse me, Sir Michael.” “Yes Director Chen, is there anything else?” “Sir, do you know Ms. Yang personally?” I raised my head and looked at him. “Why did you ask?” “Well, I’m just confused about why you were targeting KM Agency. But when you suddenly order to have Ms. Yang signed, I got a little bi

(Catherine's POV) Clad in a crimson-white sleeveless dress, my hair tied up in a bun, I looked at myself in the mirror where it reflected the image of a woman that she didn't know she would see once again. Her make-up completely highlighted her amber eyes, making them look brighter. Her neck is now adorned with a simple gold necklace given to her by President Lu. Earlier this morning, different people came knocking. Together with them are rows of pieces of jewelry, designer dresses, bags, and shoes. They also brought with them some stylists. I was baffled when these people came. But when Secretary Lin entered, I finally realized that they were the people sent by President Lu. He really made a lot of effort for today's event. I'm also a little bit nervous about this meeting. Although I have already met Chairman Lu a lot of times, I was a professor at that time, so it's easier to approach him. But now, I'm going to meet him as his grandson's soon-to-be
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 27: Wedding Gown
(Catherine's POV) It was already late in the evening when we finished talking to the wedding coordinator. I was so amazed by how efficient she is. Even for myself, I don't really have any expectations about this wedding since it's just a contractual one. But, with how Ms. Wang planned the wedding. I can't help but feel mesmerized by it. From the wedding venue to the wedding cake, invitations, food, and beverages, everything was beautiful. We just have one problem right now, which is the gown I'm going to wear. Since this is a rushed wedding, it would be better to wear a ready-made gown, but President Lu insisted on making a custom-made one. It's fine with me with what gown to wear. I don't really care much about it. As long as it can fit me, then it's fine. But President Lu is really giving everyone a hard time. He insisted on his decision and he even offered to pay twice the price just to have it made before the wedding day. I

(Catherine's POV) "Cathy! I might be coming home late. I had a magazine shoot today and the venue is out of town, so there are chances that I might stay there for the night or come home late. You don't have to wait for me, okay?" "Okay, take care on your way, Monique!" Monique dashed out of the apartment carrying her luggage. Her assistant must have been waiting for her in the parking lot. Monique is now back at work. It's already been a couple of days since she started working at Glory World. And for the past few days, she's always full of happiness. No matter how tired she was, her face still glowed with enjoyment. Signing for Glory World must be the right decision. Glancing at the time, it was almost past 8 in the morning. I don't have any classes scheduled for today, so I can just stay at home. 'It's still too early.' I took the dirty plates to the sink after finishing my meal. Since I have nothing to do anyway, I might as
Love Blooms At Second Chances Chapter 25: Conditions
(Third Person’s POV) In a luxurious restaurant, a beautiful lady is silently sipping her tea while glancing at the scenery outside. It’s already spring and the flowers are slowly blossoming. The trees sway elegantly to the breeze of the wind, making the scenery harmonious to look at. This tranquillity was interrupted when a young handsome man took a seat in front, blocking the great view. The lady blinked her eyes twice and looked at the man sitting in front. “Oh, you’re here, President Lu.” The man smiled brightly at the lady sitting elegantly opposite him. “It was a surprise to receive a call from you Ms. Su. 2 weeks haven’t passed yet but you took the initiative to call. So, I’m guessing you have already made your decision.” Catherine reached out to her bag and took a file. Placed it in front of President Lu confidently. “I will marry you if you agree to the conditions written on that file.” Alexander took the file and carefully read each i

(Catherine’s POV) “Cathy, hey! Cathy! Cathy!” Monique’s waving hands flashed in my eyes instantly. “Yes, sorry. What are you saying?” I didn’t notice that my thoughts drifted away. Caught up in a trance, I can’t concentrate on our conversation because the words left by President Lu keep on popping up. “Are you okay? You seem distracted. Is something bothering you? I’m free to listen.” Worry flashed in her small eyes. Her eyes blinked a couple of times while looking at me. Her slender white fingers covered my hands resting on the table, comforting me. I flashed a smile to reassure her that everything was fine. I don’t want to worry her about my current predicament, especially now that she’s having trouble with herself. Pinching her pale white hands, I smiled gently. “Don’t worry. It’s not that serious, I’ll tell you about it soon when I figure things out. By the way, you were talking about some big news. What is it?” Enthusiasm came bac

(Monique’s POV) “Welcome to Glory World Entertainment Ms. Monique Yang” Director Chen stood up and offered his hand. I happily accepted it and said my most heartfelt thanks. “Do you have something to do today, Ms. Yang? If none, would you like to have a tour of the company?” He offered, which I was delighted to hear. I was really curious about how Glory World Entertainment looks inside. I was only able to see the lobby and the 5th floor. And Glory World has more than 20 floors. “Yes, of course. I would love that Director Chen.” He took the contract in his hand and gestured for us to go out. “Let’s go, Ms. Yang.” When we were about to get to the elevator door, his phone suddenly rang. “Excuse me for a moment, Ms. Yang.” He walked a little bit further and answered the phone. That must be the CEO. He was very polite when he was talking and I keep hearing him say, sir. I waited at the corner and looked around just
