“Hey, Mr. Jeremy Sean. I came here earlier but I didn’t see you. Where were you?”
“I went somewhere.”
“Do you know that your response is a lot more suspicious?”
Jeremy hissed.
“I can tell that you are not okay and that’s because you are trying to hide something from us.”
“That’s ridiculous.” Jeremy said, still fixated on what he’s doing.
“Then tell me, where’s that somewhere?”
Jeremy stopped reading and closed the files. He then leaned his back on his chair and released a deep sigh. “I was in Valez earlier.”

“Do you like this place?” “This is more than enough, Your Highness.” Sodon said politely. Jeremy could not believe his ears. He gave the old man a deep stare. “If someone hears you call me Your Highness, they will surely think you have already lost your mind. Stop addressing me that way, okay?” “But.. You are the Crown Prince of Wishire Kingdom. I must not disrespect--” “I was but I am no longer. Where are we now? Are we still in the kingdom?” There is discomfort on Sodon’s face. “When you showed up at Campbell Park, you didn’t act politely. How you talked to me
After Jeremy revealed to Sodon everything he had seen in the memory of their past the moment he confessed to Serin, the old man finally figured out what to do to help Serin exist in this transcending time without facing a tragic fate. And he has to do that in their time in the past and not here. But despite having the solution Sodon already came up with, he can no longer easily vanish here and appear in the past because the situation between Jeremy and him has already changed. If before, Serin’s expression of yearning and love for Heron is the reason for Sodon’s sudden appearance and disappearance in both transcending time, now that is not the case anymore. And that is because Jeremy already remembers who Sodon is. Having a clear memory of who they really are hinders the old man to vanish here and to be taken back to the past. "B
Flustered with the sight of her trembling hands covered with blood, she closed her eyes. And when she slowly opened them, she's back to the unknown place again. She found herself lying on the ground by the graceful river and the beds of tall reeds. There was no gloomy moon but the gleaming sunshine. No more trembling hands, no more blood. Serin was completely filled with puzzling confusion. What had been happening to her? She was totally clueless. She fearlessly stared at the sky above her, wanting to see the flashing scenarios to know what would happen next. As soon as she fixed her tearful eyes on the clear sky, like a mirror, scenarios began to flash again. But the flashing scenarios were the
Serin kept running in this endless vastness. She was sure that Heron was somewhere, devotedly waiting for her. She was driven to see the end of the flowing river and beds of tall reeds. And because her heart was filled with unyielding hope and yearning for Heron, sowly, she was taken back to the place of beautiful and painful stories. Crowus Mountain. No more second thought, Serin got on the horse and in a rush, she left the mountain while enduring the tormenting pain on her right shoulder. While her tears were dripping from her eyes, her thoughts were on Heron. She was granted this chance to save him and to change their fate. She could, she was hopeful. There on the road, trying for the second time, she found the terribly wounded Crown Prince, leaning on the big
BREAKING NEWS: Jeremy Sean and Gail Andrews are secretly dating! In an article, the informant's statement is published. "I was a guest in Crimson. On the first day of my stay in the hotel, I saw that Mr. Jeremy Sean stepped out from one of the VIP hotel rooms on the floor where I was staying. I thought that he was using that room but I was wrong. To my surprise, I saw another person who went out from the same hotel room. It's Ms. Gail Andrews, the Flairs heiress and one of the most prominent designers in the country. Because of what I had witnessed, I decided to tail them while I was in Crimson. Secretly watching them for two weeks, their intimate sweetness whenever they were together could really tell that they are secretly dating. They would always meet in the secluded spot of the big rooftop garden where guests don't usu
"The dating news of Mr. Jeremy Sean and Ms. Gail Andrews is not true. The anonymous guest who tipped off LS Daily is confirmed to be fake. There was no guest who stayed on the same floor where Ms. Andrews’ hotel room is for two weeks. We even checked all the hotel room bookings on that floor one whole month prior to the date the fake guest mentioned. All the guests in the said period of time stayed only between 3 to 5 days. Ms. Andrews’ stay also confirmed that the news is totally fake. She stayed in Crimson for only two days. On those dates the fake guest stated, Mr. Sean didn’t appear in any reviewed footage from the CCTVs installed all over the rooftop garden. Ms. Andrews was the only one spotted and she was alone in that place. On the same given dates,
Gail immediately answered the call. "Open the door." "Y..You're here???" Jeremy hung up. Not wasting any second, Gail rushed to the door and opened it. "What brings you--" "You did that, right?" Jeremy cut her in. His piercing eyes are glaring at her. Unbothered, Gail is all smiles. "You get inside first." "I'm asking you." “Did you just come here to ask me--”
Jeremy can’t be wrong because that is the voice he has been longing to hear. Standing in the corner of the elevator, he lifted his head. What he sees before his eyes is the girl he has terribly missed the most. Serin is in front of him. Even from behind, she still looks beautiful. Her long hair with big curls is tied up. Tucked in her light blue high waist jeans is a pastel peach ruffled long-sleeved blouse. White pumps perfectly match her casual and feminine look. Serin is simply beautiful and that is one of the countless reasons why she couldn't be compared to Gail. Her simplicity is one of her appealing charms. Standing behind Serin, Jeremy misses her more. With haste, he lowered his head while pretending to be busy with his phone. Despite hi
“Serin spoke in her sleep twice and during those moments, I vanished in the palace and appeared here in this present time. She must be wandering in her dreams, that’s what I am thinking right now.”Whirling emotions, Jeremy was having the same thoughts. Events that involved Serin’s dreams suddenly reappeared in his clear memory.On the night of his 18th birthday, he found Serin on Desf Road. He heard her call him Heron and when he was about to carry him, she longingly touched his face and painfully uttered, “Heron, you’re alive. I’m glad you’re alive.” Those were the same exact words that came out from her in her sleep before Sodon vanished in the past and was brought here in this present time.Jeremy could also remember the day he and Serin had a heated confrontation just because she went out of his condo unit without telling him. When they clashed for the first time, while her
When Jeremy began to notice that Dave had been treating him completely different from how he used to, he already knew why. Slowly getting closer to Serin, Dave had been falling for Serin. And with the fact that Jeremy was the one who found her on Desf Road and rescued her on that rainy night, Dave’s jealousy started to consume him. That was what Jeremy thought, but the painful truth was, Dave had silently hated him even before Serin came to his life.As his condition got horribly worse, Dave buried himself in a deeper state of misery. Since he fell terribly ill the day after his mom passed away, he had become miserably hopeless. He had been tortured and haunted by his own demons in his agitated mind. His own misery completely darkened his life. And the only one who could help him see even a spot of light was his younger brother.In his teenage years, Jeremy had to carry the heaviest weight on his shoulders. If it’s not for Dave, he could h
Criminal, that torturing word.The moment Dave uttered that word, his heart agonizingly broke. His confession, in an instant, took him to that gruesome and haunting night when he was nothing but a horrible monster.Year 2009, the night of his younger brother’s 14th birthday when he thought that his mom was busy in the kitchen preparing for the surprise birthday dinner for Jeremy. While he was in his room, suddenly the door opened.Dave’s body froze when he got caught using illegal drugs. With his mom’s widened eyes, both of them got completely shocked. His extreme nervousness made him throw the drugs in a rush, hands were quivering.Total gloom darkened Leona Sean’s face. Her steps towards her son got heavier. Her beautiful world fell apart.“W..Will you.. turn me in.. to the p..police.. this time?” Dave fearfully asked with his trembling voice and bloody red eyes.Leona
That phone call, in an instant, darkened his bright day. He was sure who was on the other line. That voice, he knew it.That was him, the old man whom he ran into Campbell Park across Tiffany Blue the night when odd occurrences terribly knocked him with shocking terror and absurd affliction. That was nine years ago but Jeremy could still remember him as clear as day. But that was not the first and last time their paths crossed.Five years ago, that old man suddenly showed up on Desf Road and gave him the black silk thread bracelet. And even until now, how that old man quickly disppeared before his sight on that endless and empty road still bothered him.When that old man called him Heron from the other line, for the first time in so many years, that name began to haunt him again. Like flashes of lightning that suddenly disturbed the tranquil dark sky, strikes of overwhelming fear started to frighten him.Jeremy sped up.
Serin suddenly woke up. That scenario in her dream was filled with strange familiarity.That mountain. That sword. That guy. Those men on horses. That old man.She could not help but feel like she had already seen them before, not in her dreams but in real life.In haste, she left the bed and walked straight to the closet. As soon as she opened it, she got her black dress.Looking at the embroidered name on the back collar, she felt sudden pain.She did have a name but her identity had remained mysterious. Her memory was still completely empty.Eyes locked on her black
'I'm glad that you're finally here.. right next to me.' It was like a sweet tune to her heart. Serin flashed a warm smile. The pouring rain became a beautiful shower in her teary eyes.No more hesitation, Jeremy fearlessly faced her. The girl, who was standing before him, had given him unfeigned strength during his silent battles. He had yearned for her which felt like forever. Every day and every night, he had waited for this moment. If it's just a dream, he did not want to wake up. But Jeremy was not dreaming, it's real. He was looking into Serin's beautiful eyes."Welcome back. It's nice to see you again." He was floating in a surge of profound happiness. Words alone could not describe what he was feeling at the moment.Serin exchanged tearful smiles with him. Her heart was also exclaiming in unexplainable delight. All those shared moments with him flashed back. From the first time their longing eyes met to the saddest day they p

Five years ago."I will send you the exact address, sir." A male voice said on the other line."You have done such a great job. I will call you if I need something. Thank you." Dave ended the phone call. Nervousness began to tremble him while hurrying downstairs.Carl, the private detective that he had hired, managed to find Yenny in just four weeks.As soon as he walked past the living room, someone, who was comfortably sitting on the luxuriously-looking sofa, caught his eyes. He stopped walking. 'What is she doing here?'"Hi, Dave!" Gail greeted him. She rose up from sitting and walked to where he was standing. She was displaying her beautiful smile. "Where are you going? You must be in a rush.""What brings you here?" He asked coldly."You still have the courage to show up this house after you caused a scene here a month ago?" Jeremy showed up. He was talking about the nig
Gail simpered. "You think you can fool me??" Gail thought that Dave was just fooling around to tease her since he already knew that she had feelings for Jeremy."What if she really likes my brother, will you do something?""I won't do anything because that's not true and that will never happen." There was certainty in her voice. "Since when did you become fond of playing jokes on someone?She let out a heavy sigh. "Driving for almost three hours now must bore you. If boredom is killing you, play some music. Stop spitting non-sense.""What will I get if I play a joke on you?" He sounded so serious while his eyes were focused on driving.Gail looked at him. How his face plastered seriousness could tell that he was no longer teasing her. That's what Gail felt but the truth was, Dave was only acting. He had to fake seriousness in his voice and expression to persuade her that he was telling the truth.
