Daryl began to smile as he saw Mrs. Valentio driving into the hotel. He kept standing before his car and waited for her until she drove to the next parking slot closer to where he married.“Someone missed me?”Mrs. Valentio whispered with a cheerful tone as she wound down her glass.“I don't understand, you mean you didn't miss me too?”Damon asked, displaying a funny facial expression.“That can never be an answer to my question. Do you miss me or not? Your response will determine whether I will come down or I will drive back home.”Mrs. Valentio muttered, faking seriousness.“I know you're kidding. But I… I… I missed you. But I know you…”“Now someone just told me what I've been craving to hear.”Mrs. Valentio interrupted with high spirits.“Please spare our time, beauty. You know…”Mr. Daryl muttered as he walked closer to Mrs. Valentio's car. Already she opened the car door, exposing her lap as her dress barely covered half of her thighs.“Wow! I can't go for less! You are beautif
It was on the night that Vannesa discussed what happened in their office with Annabel. From the way she was narrating the incident, Annabel realized that she was falling for Daryl gradually, but she never admitted it whenever she confronted her. They chit-chatted at length before finally falling asleep. Early in the morning, Annabel woke up before Vannesa.“Madam, it's time to prepare for work”She whispered, tapping her friend who was relaxing on the bed.“I'm just weak, Annabel. Seems I didn't sleep enough”Nelly murmured, sounding tired while still lying down without lifting his head.“May I not meet you, still lying down here? Don't be too lazy!”Annabel whispered and hurried into the bathroom. Then, Vannesa got up from the bed and went to check on her mum. Then, she was already in the kitchen preparing meals, since she also used to leave the house on time before going to her workplace.When Vannesa and her friend were freshening up and wearing their clothes, they took tea for the
Vanessa reached home looking weak and tired. As she got home, she couldn't make herself a meal, rather she took snacks and juice since it was readily available in the fridge.“Ugh!” Vanessa sighed as she collapsed into the couch they kept in their living room.“This man is disgusting! What kind of man is that? Does that mean that he had no feelings toward what happened between us? So, he was just displaying his exuberance towards my beauty.” She thought out loud after she must have brought out her phone from where she hid it in her waist while putting on black denim at the moment.As she was still holding her phone, she paused for a few seconds and focussed her look on the empty table before her. The seriousness she displayed was obvious. She seemed puzzled. In a few seconds, she forced a smile on her face as she continued nodding her head continuously. She then continued swiping her fingers on the phone. She got tempted to check Mr. Daryl's handles on social media.“This man is
“Hi, Vannesa!”Madam Valentio whispered as she saw Vannesa walking into her office. The greeting caught her unaware since she was already an unknown enemy to Madam Valentino. Vannesa never expected such a greeting from Madam Daryl, though she was the one keeping enmity. “Greetings madam!”She greeted, forcing a grin on her face.Madam Valentio continued the pleasantries as she saw Vannesa smiling back at her. Not minding the anger she was brooding in her, Vannesa continued responding to her, so as not to trigger any issue between her and her superior. Finally, Madam Valentio let go of her when she saw their boss approaching. She also noticed the indication, since Madam Valentio stopped bringing up topics to discuss as she saw Daryl approaching. Vannesa left her and walked to her office, not waiting for Daryl to meet with her in Valentio's office.“Greetings Mister MD”Madam Valentio whispered jokingly while addressing Daryl.“Hi madam. Good morning!” Daryl replied, trying to be form

As the sun began to set behind the mountains, Daryl nervously took a deep breath and got down on one knee. He was surrounded by the beauty of the valley and the soft hum of nature in the background, but his eyes were fixed on the love of his life- Chelsea."Chelsea, I have loved you from the moment I first saw you. You have brought meaning and joy into my life. You make me a better person. Will you please do me the honor of becoming my forever partner?"

The sun was setting over the small town as Chelsea and her fiancé, Daryl, settled into a cozy booth at their favorite café. Chelsea had been feeling anxious about their relationship lately and was determined to bring up some of the issues on her mind. " Daryl, I've been struggling with some things lately and I really need to talk to you about them," she began. "Sure, Chelsea, what's on your mind?" Daryl asked, looking at her with concern. "Well, I feel like we're not communicating as well as we used to," Chelsea said, her voice shaky. "And I've been feeling like you're not listening to me when I talk to you about things that are important to me." "I'm sorry, Chelsea," Daryl said, looking contrite. "I didn't realize you felt that way. I've been under a lot of stress at work and it's been hard for me to focus on anything else." Chelsea nodded, understanding but still feeling hurt. "I know you've been busy, but I just want to feel like you're still there for me, you know? Even when t

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Chelsea," she sneered. "I heard you were having a cozy little chat with the manager. I suppose that's how you get what you want, isn't it? Sleeping your way to the top?"Chelsea's eyes widened in disbelief. How could Hilary say such cruel and baseless things? She had always tried to be kind and respectful towards Hilary, despite the complicated history between them.With a deep breath, Chelsea mustered the strength to respond calmly. "Hilary, I don't know what has brought on this ani

As the sun began to set over the rolling hills of Mr. Cruz's sprawling estate, the sound of crickets could be heard chirping in the distance. The cool evening air was a stark contrast to the heat of the day, and the only light came from the stars twinkling above.Inside the luxurious mansion, Chelsea was getting ready for a night of shopping. She stood in front of the full-length mirror, trying on various outfits to find the perfect one. The sound of her heels clicking on the wooden floor echoed through the spacious room as she twirled around, admiring herself from every angle.After settling on a chic blouse and skinny jeans, Chelsea applied a subtle layer of makeup to enhance her natural features. As she finished up, she caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror and couldn't help but smile. She knew she looked her best and was ready to hit the stores.Stepping out into the evening air, Chelsea hailed a cab and climbed in. As the car made its way through the winding roads towards the
It was a cold morning when Hilary stood in the middle of the room, holding Daryl's phone tightly in her hand. Her heart raced with a mix of anxiety, betrayal, and a growing sense of dread.She had suspected something was amiss in their relationship, but seeing the evidence right in front of her eyes was like a punch to the gut.Daryl, who had been engrossed in his laptop at the bed, looked up and noticed Hilary's tense stance and the phone clutched in her hand.His expression shifted from surprise to panic, his eyes darting between Hilary and the screen she was gripping."Hilary, what are you doing?" he stammered, attempting to regain his composure. But his feeble attempt to divert the situation only intensified the whirlwind of emotions swirling within Hilary.Ignoring his question, Hilary took a deep breath, summoning the strength to confront the reality that was staring back at her from the phone. She swiped through the messages, her eyes scanning the damning evidence that revealed
The scent of home hit Daryl as he walked through the door. He could smell the freshly baked bread his wife had prepared for dinner and the familiar aroma of his home that he had missed for the past couple of days.As he walked into the kitchen, he saw his wife, Hilary, standing by the stove, her eyes glued to the door, waiting for him. Her face brightened up as she saw him, and she rushed to him, wrapping her arms around him in a tight hug."Where were you last night?" she asked, her voice trembling with worry. "I waited for you, but you never came home. I was so worried; I thought something had happened to you."Daryl looked into her eyes; he could see the fear and worry in her eyes, and it tore at his heart. He knew he owed her an explanation, but he wasn't ready to talk about it just yet."I'm sorry, Hilary," he said softly. "I had to work late last night; I didn't want to wake you up, so I crashed at the office."Hilary's face softened with relief as she heard his explanation. She
Chelsea always woke up early in the morning. Even today, despite being up late the night before, she got out of bed with a tired body, puffy eyes, and a yawn so wide, it seemed like it'd never end. It was unfortunate that she had to get up so early, but she was determined to start her day early and with purpose.She made her way to the bathroom and got ready for her day. She started by washing her face with cold water, which always helped to take away the puffiness around her eyes.She then proceeded to take a quick shower, and within 20 minutes, she was done and feeling refreshed. She dried herself off and came out of the bathroom, ready to start her day.Chelsea had taken up a healthy lifestyle; her breakfast was the most important meal of the day.
