"Just continue observing those two and we might find out information that we don't know yet," Red ordered his secretary, who nodded in response.Their journey to the airport was quick due to the fast-flowing traffic. As soon as they arrived at the airport, the two pilots who would be flying them greeted them. Behind them were the two cabin crews who would accompany them on their flight."Welcome aboard, Mr. Buenavista!" they cheerfully greeted him.Upon arriving in Australia, dark circles under Red's eyes could be seen. After more than eight hours of travel, Red wasn't able to sleep or rest even for a short while.He was focused on his laptop all night, and when he stopped, his phone became his source of relaxation. Miss Dein watched her boss in amazement, as if she was watching a live suicide."Sir, would you like to get a hotel room first to rest?" Miss Dein asked with concern, but Red didn't even acknowledge her.Red was lost in thought, as if he was in a deep trance. "Sir?" Miss D
A commotion is happening at the Martinez's house. They are trying to stop Red from taking Chelsea. "Mr. Buenavista, you surely know what you're doing. Leave before we call the police to forcefully remove you." Mrs. Martinez said to Red.Almost ten of Martinez's bodyguards are blocking Red from entering their territory. It's as if Red doesn't hear anything and still pushing through the blockers. It seems like his mind is closed to whatever others are saying and all he wants is to get Chelsea.Red looked back at Chelsea and noticed that she's also looking at him. Their eyes met and it was visible in Chelsea's eyes that she's feeling sadness, pity, and mixed emotions because of what she's seeing.After a while, Angel, Chelsea's friend, pulled her into her room. Before entering, Chelsea tried to plead to let her watch what's happening, but her friend didn't listen and just continued pulling her inside.It's like a strange force pushed Red to push harder against the men blocking him. Lucki
CHELSEA"What are you looking at?" Angel asked in surprise when she saw me staring off into space."Ah—nothing, let's go..." I replied and pulled her into the grocery store.As soon as we entered, I still couldn't take my eyes off the car I saw earlier. It looked exactly like the one Red used when he came to our house. I'm not sure if it was his though, as it's been a few days since that incident.Angel has been observing me since earlier, as if studying my movements. Maybe she's noticing something different about me today. I approached the shopping cart and took one. "Where should we go first?" I asked her with a smile.She looked at me for a few seconds, then suddenly shook her head and bowed down. After a while, she lifted her head and flashed a sweet smile. She rushed towards me and pushed the cart as if she was excited about what we were going to do.It's a good thing she seems to have stopped doubting me. As we went around and picked out items, I felt a strange sensation as if s
CHELSEA"Beshy?" I almost jumped in surprise at Angel's sudden call.Nervously, I turned to her and waited to see if she was going to scold me for going against our agreement not to see or talk to Red again. "Angel..." I called her softly, as if a child asking for forgiveness for a wrongdoing."What are you doing here? I told you to wait for me there, right?" Angel said, sounding puzzled.I felt a wave of relief wash over me when I realized that she hadn't seen Red. "Thank goodness..." I accidentally whispered to myself, but Angel quickly turned to me and asked, "What? Did you say something?""N-nothing... Let's just hurry up and finish shopping so we can go home. I'm getting a bit sleepy." I said, starting to push the shopping cart. Angel followed me, still looking confused."What else do we need to buy?" Angel asked as she scanned the entire grocery store. She carefully examined the items on display while she thought about what else we needed."Uhm... Our snacks and maybe we should
CHELSEAI quickly left the room and slowly closed the door to make sure Angel wouldn't wake up. Luckily, there was no one around, so I started to go down the stairs.I went back upstairs when a woman passed by. She must be one of the household helpers and she looked very sleepy. When she left, I quickly headed to the back of the house. I couldn't pass through the main gate because the guard would surely see me.There's a small hole in the garden of the mansion that leads to the river. Once you cross the bridge, you'll reach the street. When I reached the bridge, I quickly crossed it and hurriedly walked down the dark path.There were no streetlights on this road, only the moonlight accompanied me as I walked. Luckily, I had my phone with me and I used it as a flashlight.There was no one else around, and if I saw anyone, they were probably just a few people going home from work. When I emerged from the path, I saw the streetlights indicating that I was going the right way. I wasn't su
ChelseaIs it right to break the trust of the people who care about you just for the sake of the one person you love?I am now in the living room and I don't know how long Auntie, I mean Mommy, has been lecturing me. Until now, I am still not used to the words I should call them. It's like I feel uncomfortable sometimes, "Where did you come from? You worried us, we thought something happened to you." Mommy asked me while pushing the hair covering my face."Sorry po... I didn't mean to make you worry. I just felt hungry earlier and my stomach really craved for instant noodles... I wanted to lessen the effects of alcohol, but we don't have any here in the house..." I whispered my answer because of embarrassment. I don't know if she'll believe what I'm saying, but I can't tell her that I met with Red."So, you went out while drunk?" She asked with a frown.I nodded as my answer to her. "So you were telling me that you went out while drunk? Hija, do you know how dangerous that is? What if
CHELSEAI woke up early today, but to be honest, I'm not sure if I even slept. When my sleepiness took over, it felt like I closed my eyes for just ten minutes and when I opened them, it was already morning.I yawned as I went down to the first floor and Mommy was already awake, drinking her favorite tea while reading a magazine. "Good morning!" I greeted Mommy warmly and went to hug her and give her a kiss on the cheek."Oh, darling! Good morning! Did you sleep well?" She asked me as soon as I approached her."Yes, Mommy." I nodded my head in response."That's good. Have you eaten your breakfast? Your Daddy and I already ate earlier." She said and went back to reading her magazine."By the way, where is Daddy?" I asked curiously when I noticed he wasn't by her side. I'm used to seeing them together every morning and they're almost inseparable."He's playing golf with our business partners." She replied and continued looking at her magazine. "Oh, I almost forgot to tell you last night
"Have you been waiting for long? Sorry, I was a bit late. I couldn't find the way to get in here, the place is too hidden," Red scratched his head and apologized.Chelsea just smiled and lowered her head, "It's fine. We need to leave anyway since Angel only gave me two hours to wander around, and I only managed to leave because Angel's parents are not here... and since you are thirty minutes late, we only have an hour and a half left.""Just an hour and a half? Come on," Red grumbled and pouted."Well, keep on sulking and it will be only an hour left," Chelsea teased. Red sighed and opened the car door for Chelsea, helping her get in.As he started the engine, Chelsea asked, "Where are we going now? We need to go somewhere where no one can see us."Red thought for a moment while focusing on driving, "So you won't overthink if someone sees us, how about my hotel room?"Chelsea raised her right eyebrow, "Didn't you bring Miss Dein with you? You're really making it hard for her. Don't yo
