Themis' POV

It was already six in the afternoon when I finished all of my business appointments for the day. I thought Winter had already left, but as I reached the company lounge area, I saw her lying on the couch.

I walked towards her. "Winter."

When I removed her sunglasses, that's when I found out she was actually sleeping.

She really waited for me all day, as she promised. I thought she would get tired and leave me, but she didn't.

"M-Matthew!" she got up as soon as she saw me. "Are your meetings done already? Please, if you still have meetings to attend, just move them to tomorrow. I've been waiting here all day, and all I ate was that chicken sandwich and caramel coffee from the pantry!" she complained to me like a kid. Her hair was already messed up she really look like she has just woken up.

I couldn't help but let out a soft laugh as I pat her head. "It's done. We can go home now."

"Really?!"

"Uh-huh. Shall I treat you to dinner for waiting that long?"

Winter crossed her a

    Winter's POV"Matthew, let's play a game!" I told him as he was about to lie down on the couch.His brows furrowed."Game? What game?""How about a staring game?"As soon as he heard what game I suggested, he frowned and sat on the couch. "Let's just sleep.""Come on, Matthew! That game is just so simple! Let's just do three rounds and the loser will have to do what the winner asks.""My right eye has an eyepatch, how can I even do a staring game?""Using your left eye!"Before he could even speak again, I stood up and sat on the couch beside him. "What---"The game begins now!"I stared straight into his left eye. It was quite hard since the other one has an eyepatch on, but it didn't change the fact that he has such beautiful eyes. His deep, sapphire eyes staring back at me immediately caused my heart to pound hard."I won!"I screamed when Matthew suddenly averted his gaze upon hearing his phone ring."That shouldn't be counted. My phone rang. I couldn't help checking it because i

    Themis' POV"Meeting is adjourned." I stood up as soon as I said that.It was already lunch, and today was also the day I promised to go out with Winter. We were about to leave this morning, but then I remember I still have a meeting so I had to tell her to just wait for me at a coffee shop.She was staring at the window, obviously getting bored as I stepped inside the coffee shop."I apologize for making you wait."A huge smile appeared on her face upon seeing me. "Matthew!""So, where do you want us to go first?""Hmm... Well, I have searched for places we could go and these are what came out," she said, then she showed me her phone. She really did search so many tourist spots that I don't even know how are we going to go to every single one of them.I chose a place that was near where we were. "Let's go here first.""Huh? The river park?""Yeah."She nodded her head and smiled. "Alright. That's actually the first one on my list. It says there that they even have a field of tulips w

    Winter's POV"Now, let me teach you how to ride a bike alone."Matthew's eyes widened as soon as he heard that from me. "What?""You know, it's better if you learn it. You can't just pedal forever, of course, there will come a time when you'll have to ride a bike. I'll guide you, anyway.""Fine." he immediately gave up."That's good! Then go ride that bike already!"Obviously nervous to ride it alone, Matthew had no choice but to follow what I told him. He rode the bike and tried to pedal it, but he immediately stopped because it kept on wiggling as if he was about to fall. I walked toward him. "You have to balance yourself in order not to fall. Also, you shouldn't be nervous and just focus on what's in front of you. Try again, I'll guide you from the back.""Okay."As I stood behind him to hold the back of the bicycle, Matthew started to pedal again. When he began moving, I let go of him and he still managed to continue biking until he noticed I wasn't behind him anymore. It's really

It was already evening and I still have work tomorrow, so we couldn't go to another tourist spot anymore.But just when I was about to start the engine of my car, it didn't work. Later on, we just realized one of its wheels was flat. There wasn't a nearby gas station or vulcanizing shop, so I just called my secretary to take over my car."Are you in for a commute?" I asked Winter."I haven't done that before, but I think that sounds great!"In order to go to the hotel we were staying at, we had to ride a bus. There were lots of people on the bus and so we weren't able to find any seats."What the hell is this? Why don't they provide more seats to passengers?" Winter whispered to me as she keeps on struggling to stand still."The number of seats still depends on the size of the bus. Even if they provide more seats, I'm pretty sure there would still be passengers who will need to stand up."As the bus stops, t

We're sorry if you had to wait long here." Matthew told her."It's alright, brother. I got so many stars at school!"I patted her head. "Is that true? That's nice! What do you want us to give you, huh? Or maybe you want us to go somewhere or eat something?""I just wanted the two of you to go home together, that's already enough for me, Miss Winter.""Oh, you sweet child."After that, we proceeded to our rooms to change clothes before gathering together in the dining room to have our dinner. "Brother, aren't you going anymore?""Huh? No, I'm not going anymore. I already finished all the things I have to do there. And if ever we go again, you'll come with us." said Matthew while smiling at Elisse."I want to go with you!""And that is why you should always behave. If you continue being a good girl, then maybe we could go

They were too many that it became hard for me to reach the parking lot. Good thing some of my bodyguards were able to protect me until I stepped inside my car."Are the rumors true?"I almost got surprised upon seeing my parents inside our house. Of course, they would go here. They probably heard about the rumors already. I sat on the couch and looked at them. "If you are here to celebrate, then go on. The videos are true, I really treated that woman rudely.""Of course we know that's true. Knowing your character, we all know you will really do that.""This is what we've been telling you, Winter.

They already informed us about it last month, and there is no way that would change. "Bridgette Vans!"I stopped walking and looked around me. Bridgette stood up and even smiled at me before going upstage. People were looking at me as if I was going crazy."Haley? What happened?!""I don't even know! We should talk to them after this!"As she said, we went to the organization to ask about what just happened."We all know Winter's career is already turning downhill. There is no way we would give her the best actress award! People might even attack us if that ever happens!" said the director of the award show."What did you say? But you already informed us that I will be the best actress of the year!" I complained.He laughed sarcastically. "Everyone's talking about you already, Winter.

He turned around and kissed me on the cheek before speaking. "Who is it?" "It's Winston. My first boyfriend." His brows furrowed. "Y-Your first boyfriend?" "Uh-huh. He is my very first investor. Oh gosh, I didn't expect it to be him. He didn't change, actually. He is still as handsome as ever." "I see. So, you think he is more handsome than me?" he said as he continued cooking. I giggled as I hugged his back. "So, are you getting jealous now because he is my first love?" "Of course, not. I just hate the way you smile while talking about some other man being handsome." "Oh, Matthew. You still get jealous when you already had me first." I whispered seductively in his ear which made him immediately turn around and widen his eyes at me. "Winter! Elisse might hear you!" I cupped both of his cheeks as I chuckle

"Then why don't you bother her instead?" "I just went here because your boutique is much closer to my restaurant. And also..." I looked at him. "And also?" He looked so serious as he looked directly at me. "I've heard about it." "A-About what?" "About your family." When I realized what he was talking about, I averted my gaze from him. "Well, you heard it right. I'm not really a part of their family. And now, I don't even know who my real parents are." "That must be tough for you." "It is. But then I realized that there is no reason for me to agonize about it. They never treated me as a part of their family, anyway. At least I no longer have to wonder why they can never appreciate the things that I do." "Winter..." "Anyway, I still have a meeting with a p

Although I still can’t forget about what I just found out about my family, Matthew made me feel better. “Winter…” he looked at me worriedly as soon as he opened his eyes. I gave him a smile. “Good morning, Matthew.”“Are you alright now?” “I feel better now.”He heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good to hear then.”“You’re such a naughty pumpkin.”“Huh?”“I didn’t know you’re so good at it.” I teased him. That immediately made him blush. “D…Do you want to have breakfast already? I’ll prepare it now.”I laughed as I hugged him. “Look at you getting embarrassed so easily. You really are so cute.”“Winter.”“I finally made up my mind.”“Huh?”I took a deep breathe before speaking again. “Let’s go somewhere far from everyone.

    Winter's POV"Here, have some hot chocolate first." Matthew sat next to me as he placed a glass of water on the center table.He brought me to an inn after what happened a while ago. I told him that I want to be away from everyone for a while."Matthew.""Hmm?""Elisse... We should have brought her with us."He shook his head. "Don't worry, I'll get her tomorrow morning. I have also told Maggie and the others to watch after her.""Okay...""A-Are you alright? N-No, I mean, what do you want to do? Do you want to eat or something?" he asked, obviously worried about me.I heaved a sigh and slowly nodded my head. "I think I'll just eat...""Okay. Wait for me here, okay? I'll prepare something for you.""Okay.."I leaned on the couch as I pulled the blanket and covered myself with it while waiting for Matthew.It only took thirty minutes before he finally brought some food and placed them on the center table."It's Almond Butter Curry.""You do know a lot of cuisines, huh?"He smiled as he

    Winter's POVI woke up with Matthew hugging me tightly like a pillow as he slept.I roamed my eyes around the room and didn't find Elisse anywhere. I couldn't hear her voice from anywhere inside the room either.She woke up early today, huh?She probably went out to play with Maggie. She's really that close with our maids. That's why we had no choice but to bring them with us here in New Zealand. I turned my body to Matthew, who was still sleeping soundly. I couldn't help but smile as I stared at his handsome, innocent face as he sleeps. He really looks like a little kid whenever he sleeps. His brows were furrowed as if he was fighting with someone in his dreams and his lips were pouting. He got so tired from driving and carrying all our things yesterday, that's probably the reason why he's still asleep right now."What a sleepy head," I whispered, then pinched his cheeks. Good thing, that didn't wake him up. Instead, he turned to the other side without opening his eyes.I got up and

We weren't able to do it yesterday since we went out with the whole family although Matthew prepared everything that we'll need and he was also able to call some staff. I shook my head immediately. "No, you can't. Why don't you just go yourself? It's a family day, so you can't go with us. Also, you're afraid of heights, right? Something bad might happen there and mom would blame me for it, for sure.""But, I haven't experienced hiking yet. That's why I thought I could go with you guys. I promise I wouldn't be a burden. I won't let anything bad happen to me.""It's alright, you can go with us." Matthew suddenly said. I turned around and glared at him. "She can't go with us. It's a family day.""She promised not to bother us, anyway. Besides, she's also a part of our family since she's your sister.""Thank you so much, Matthew! Wait,

It has children focused swings which Elisse enjoyed, slides, and tunnels to pools with a range of temperatures.Summer, mommy, Elisse, and I went to a different pool from the boys.The warm water felt so relaxing, adding up to the relaxing, scenic view of our surroundings."Mommy, can I go to that slide thing again?" Elisse suddenly asked me."Huh? Sure, if you want to. I'll just ask Maggie and Eula to accompany you. Just make sure to behave and careful, okay?"She nodded her head with a smile on her face.

Are you sure it's alright for you to travel?" I walked over to grandpa who was busy talking to Matthew. He smiled at me. "What do you think of your grandpa, an old hag who can't walk anymore?""It's not like that. I just—"Ah, come on. Stop worrying about me and just make sure you and your husband, together with your daughter, will have fun there.""Fine. We'll have some fun there. That's for sure.""Mommy!

    Ian's POVI couldn't help but ball my hands into fists whenever I see Winter and Matthew acting sweet with each other. Why is he acting like a gentleman when he's actually a jerk? It's so obvious that he and Belle had some past, but he acts as if he never cared about her or they never had a relationship. I mean, why would Belle react so much if they never had a relationship?"Don't make it too obvious that you're jealous. They might notice it, you know." I whispered to Belle while we were walking towards the booths. She glared at me. "I should be the one telling you that. You keep on frowning at Matthew even if he's not even doing anything. Also, the way you smile at Winter reveals everything already.""Oh, so you're jealous now? You're jealous because I smile a lot at her? Huh?" he suddenly said as he put his arm around my shoulders."And why would I even feel jealous? I don't care about anything you'll do, anyway. Can you remove your arms around my shoulders already?!
