Solana's POVJordan picked me up earlier than I expected him to come. I saw him sitting on his motorcycle when I stepped out of the building. He was still wearing his helmet while playing with the keys in his hands."Bye, Sol!" Helena waved at me. I did the same to her and Shun. Warren left early too while Pierce was called again for another meeting with the Vice President.I walked towards Jordan. He immediately noticed my presence. He looked around and then handed me the helmet. "Let's go?"I chewed my bottom lip and nodded. Is he angry? He doesn't seem in the mood. He looked pissed.I rode the motorcycle after he started the engine. He drove safely while I'm still thinking what's the possible problem. Did I do something wrong? Is he mad about something?My heart raced thinking about the possibility that he found out about my real intention. It wasn't the problem, right?When we reached our unit, he opened the door for me. He sat on the couch while I stared at him with confusion. I'
Solana's POVI was about to pull away from the kiss as his hug around my waist tightened, but I wasn't given a chance because he pulled me even closer and his kisses became carnal. He was now nibbling and gently biting my bottom lip.I squeezed my eyes closed and held onto his shoulder. "Hmm! J-Jordan…"I sucked my breath. His hands started caressing my waists. It felt so hot. I flinched when he licked my lips, urging me to part my mouth and when I did, he pushed his tongue inside my mouth and played with my tongue. Oh, God!It's burning. I'm burning.I moaned against his lips when he suddenly carried me. He walked and after a few seconds, I felt my back on the sofa.He let go of my mouth, allowing me to breathe. I sucked air as his lips went to my cheek and then to my ear. "You're so innocent, babe."I don't know what he meant by that but I was lost in thoughts again after he bit my earlobe."Oh!" I moaned and arched my back. He's doing something in my body. Something I couldn't resi
Solana's POVI touched my lip after I sent the message to my client. I'm asking for an extension of the deadline because I don't think I can finish the design on time. I need to visit Martha and work harder in the Muller Group since I still need to prepare for the Autumn and Winter Series Exhibition.Hugging myself, I squeezed my legs together. I still can feel the desire that Jordan ignited in my body. I can still feel his lips on mine. His palms on my body. I can still feel the wanton heat but no, I can't give in to him.I received the client's reply and my eyes widened as I read his message. He said he doesn't need to do the design anymore. It scared me. I don't wanna lose a good paying client. I need him.I panicked so I replied that I will finish the design but I may not reach the deadline. I was relieved when he replied again, saying I don't need to worry and he's giving me enough time to finish the design.Lying on the bed, I stared at the ceiling and remembered the incident in
Lolita's POVI balled my fists after I heard Solana's threat. He still has the guts to threaten me? Can't she understand? I don't care about what she says or does. I already disposed her and threw her in the dust where she belonged. She belongs to the dirt with her husband, who's an illegitimate child and an idler. They deserve each other coz they're nothing but poor useless people."Call her now or I'll call my husband," Solana added.I gritted my teeth. Damn her for threatening me like this. Does she think I'm scared? I will never get scared of her."Lolita!" My husband, Robert pulled my arm and faced me. "Did you hear Solana? She's gonna call Jordan Evans and this will make the situation worse."What? This coward never fails to anger me. He's always defending Solana and I hate him for doing so. Agatha was his daughter.I glared at him. "I don't care, Robert. Call her husband for all she wants. I don't give a damn."So what if her husband came from a wealthy family? He's still an id
Solana's POVI chewed my bottom lip while staring at my phone after my salary was transferred to my account. It's just enough to fully pay for Martha's renal transplantation. I need to find a way to make more money. The bags. Right! I will sell it.I went back to the department after washing my hands in the powder room. My teammates already left and I was left with Pierce who just rose from his seat after turning his computer off."Sol," Pierce called my name, so I looked at him and smiled.He pressed his lips together and walked towards me. He glanced at my bag. "Uhm… Do you have any plans tonight?"Plans for tonight? I texted Jordan not to fetch me tonight coz I need to go to the hospital and pay the remaining balance for Martha's renal transplantation, so yeah. I have plans. Nevertheless, I smiled at him. "Why?"He scratched the back of his head, as if hesitating. "Can I invite you for dinner? Tonight? In a restaurant. My treat."I pressed my lips together and stared at him. I just
Solana's POVI smiled at Pierce, trying so hard not to look arrogant. "He's my husband."Shock was very evident on his face after I said that. He was unable to speak for a couple of seconds. He's shocked. Of course. He never heard anything about me getting married, so he'd be very shocked.I'm not a fool not to notice his stares. I know he still has feelings for me but I'm doing everything to ignore it.I felt Jordan's arm behind me, resting on the back rest. I looked at him and smiled after our eyes met. His smile was different. I know he's angry. Is he… probably jealous?I swallowed hard. He was staring back at me as if he's trying to convey his message through our stares. I felt my heart beating so fast. Jordan is just so hard to understand, but I feel like I know what he's trying to say.Pierce stole my attention after he cleared his throat. He has recovered from shock. He wet his lips and stared at me. "When did you get married?"I know he'd ask that. "Just this year," I answered
Solana's POVAgatha smirked as soon as she stopped in front of our table. She's beside Pierce whose face was showing confusion. Probably because Agatha is looking at me with a mocking and sarcastic expression on her face.I felt anger washed over me as soon as I saw her face. I really don't like seeing her face. Her presence alone can ruin my mood."Hey there, sis. I see you're having fun after you get money from mom," she said with a hint of anger and mock.I lifted my chin and kept my face blank. I see she's trying to shame me here but she's so unlucky coz I won't let her embarrass me in any way. I bet she'll run away as soon as I hit her ego. I wanna know what her plan is and how she would embarrass me tonight.She glanced at Jordan and Pierce. She looked so eager to taint my image and ruin me in the eyes of the people around, especially to Pierce and Jordan."Gentlemen, my sister here seems to be enjoying your company. I bet you'd go straight to a hotel nearby. Are you excited, So
Solana's POVShe attempted to snatch the bag back, but I lifted my arm, moving it away from her reach. Her face turned red. She's now furios because of what I did. She roamed her eyes around, looking at the people watching us."Shut up, Solana!" She growled at me.I frowned at her. "Now, you want me to shut up? Why don't you tell yourself to back off and never dare to interfere with me again?"She tried to insult me by laughing sarcastically but I rolled my eyes at her. She has reached the peak of my limit. It's time for her to shut her loud mouth.I shot an eyebrow up. "What can you say about my suggestion, Agatha?She fell in silence. She obviously wanted to pull my hair now, but she's too humiliated to even argue. She really can't take humiliation, huh?"You'll pay for this!" She whispered angrily and I just grinned.I advanced to her once again. "How much?"She's now really furious. She snatched the money and the bag from me. She's trembling in so much anger and red as hell. After
Jordan's POV"Mr. President is here!"I looked at the woman who spoke and giggled. Her face was so red and she looked like she's about to pass out. I just shook my head and continued walking while carrying a box of pancakes. Solana texted me saying she wants pancakes, so here I am, being a good husband.I smiled but my smile faded when I noticed the people around watching me.This is crazy! I don't know when the truth about me spread all over the company but it's making me so annoyed. My employees are almost worshiping me.I stopped in front of the Design Team's office. I saw my wife working on her table. I told her not to work anymore but she's so stubborn"Hi, Mr. Evans!" Helena, Solana's friend in the team greeted me.I just nodded at her and entered the department. Alexandra grinned at me but I just ignored her. I went straight to my wife's place and kissed her cheek.She smiled at me. "Hey! Where's my pancake?"I put the paper bag on the table. "Here's your delivery, miss beautif
Jordan's POVI gently put Solana on the bed while kissing her lips passionately. I can stop looking at her beautiful face. I can't keep my distance from her. I can't live a day without her anymore. When she ran away from me that night in the hotel, I was broken. My world crashed. It was so painful seeing her running away from me. It was so painful to see her cry. It almost wrecked me. It was a nightmare and I don't wanna experience that kind of feeling again."You are so handsome," she whispered and caressed my cheek after our lips parted.I smiled at her and swiftly pressed my lips against hers again. "You're beautiful. We're even."She chuckled and wrapped her arms around my neck. I lay on the bed beside her. She's still wearing her wedding dress. Her flush face was so close to me and I can't resist her charms, I'm kissing her again."You're mine, Jordan. You're really mine. I'm so happy."I smiled and nodded. I am so happy too, my wife. You're like an impossible dream came true. Yo
Solana's POVThe night before our wedding, we reached the private island that Jordan rented for us. We rode a private chopper. We came here late, our friends came here first this afternoon using a yacht and now, I came here with my handsome husband. It's already 6PM. The night breeze was cold yet relaxing. I can feel the wind hugging my body as I was only wearing a sleeveless white long dress."OMG! They're so beautiful to watch!" It was Hershey who's watching us with our friends.Jordan is carrying me towards them. I was hugging my husband's nape while staring at his handsome face. My heart has been beating so loud and fast. I can't take my eyes off of him.Jordan kissed my temple before he put me down. I smiled at Hershey, Shun, Helena, Warren, Zach, Scott and Miss Wong. I didn't know Miss Wong was friends with Scott. It's really shocking as Miss Wong was cold towards everyone."How's everything?" Jordan asked Zach, who immediately took a step forward. He's so formal."Everything's
Solana's POV"So, partly, I pretended to be poor so my fiancèe would refuse to marry me," Jordan continued telling me his story.We're on the bed. He's leaning his back on the headboard, while I'm leaning my back on his chest. I was sitting between his parted legs, his arms wrapped around my waist while his hands were resting against my belly."My father's biological family can't accept me and my father can't do anything. In Fact, he's just like Robert Stone. He's like a puppet," he added.I heaved a sigh and started playing with the hair on his arms."Why won't you tell the world that you're the President of the Muller Group? Why are you hiding the fact that you're the son of a respectable businesswoman?" I asked in curiosity."My mom was hated by many for being a mistress, Solana," he answered and paused. "She doesn't want the people to treat me badly. She doesn't want them to look down on me just because she's a mistress. But my father's biological family found out. The only thing
Solana's POV"What took you so long? I'm so excited to dance!" Helena said after I arrived at our meeting place. I smiled at Shun and Hershey."Warren's in the bar already," Shun said, making me crease my forehead."Warren?"Hershey wrapped her arm around my arm. "Warren was the one who suggested a place. He said he's going there with his cousin. OMG, Sol! He said he's gonna introduce us to his guy friends."I just nodded. We rode two taxis to reach our destination. I stared at the newly opened bar while Helena was the one who's paying the taxi fares. I chewed my bottom lip and looked at the man who just entered the bar. He has the same hairstyle as Jordan so I got nervous for a second. Crazy!"Come on! Let's party!" Hershey screamed excitedly.I smiled as she dragged me inside the bar. Shun and Helena followed us.The loud music, disco lights and cigarette's smoke welcomed me. I'm not a party girl, but this place somehow made me smile. I never had the chance to enjoy my teenage life
Jordan's POVI begged Martha Dawson. She's watching me with pity in her eyes but I don't care. I've been searching for my wife for two days and I'm dying of pain and regrets for two consecutive days. I thought I could find her using my power and money, but I was wrong. Money will never work on something priceless.It's so painful. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't stop thinking about her. I can see her in every corner of our house and it's breaking me. It sounds so gay but I'd always end up shedding tears while staring at her spot in our bed.Martha Dawson heaved a sigh. She stared into my eyes. "Jordan, right?"I nodded and sniffed. Damn! I want to cry again. This is insane!She gently caressed my hair. "Jordan, Solana told me everything. She's hurt."I looked down. "I'm sorry.""Solana is a kind woman, Jordan. She must've lied to you but she did that to save me. I was the reason behind everything, so I'm sorry."I shook my head and smiled at her. Damn! She's just as kind as my wife. "You
Solana's POVI chewed my bottom lip. I want to deny the suspicions in my head. I don't wanna entertain Pierce's words. Hell, I don't even wanna think about it but I'm too scared and confused. I wanna believe Jordan but I haven't heard his side. I don't even know much about him and it scares me more."Sol?"I lifted my face and met Hershey's curious eyes. She immediately went to me. "Are you okay? Why are you still here?"It's already 7 PM and I stayed here in the company to write my resignation letter. I know it's impulsive but if I confirmed the suspicions in my mind and Pierce's words, I will leave. I will need time for myself.Hershey caressed my back. "Are you okay? Your eyes are swollen."I smiled at her and hugged her. "I need to go somewhere, Hershey."She nodded. "Do you want me to accompany you?"I shook my head. Hershey seemed worried but I don't wanna disturb her. I hailed a can to reach the luxurious hotel where Jordan wants to meet me. I kept on swallowing hard. I kept on
Solana's POVI was standing in front of Robert Stone who's kneeling before me. We're here in the police station to file a case against Lolita Stone and the two guys he paid to harm me. I was expecting Robert Stone to wake up from his senses but I just failed my own hopes. He will never change at all."Please, Sol. Please, please! Forgive your mom. She's still your mom."I looked away as tears pooled at the corner of my eyes. I saw Jordan watching me from afar. He's talking to the Captain but his eyes are on me."Sol…" Robert Stone squeezed my hands, still begging.I looked at him. I was used to hiding my emotions from them, but today, I couldn't hide it. I stared at him with nothing but pain and disappointment."D-Dad…" After so many years, I addressed him like that again and I felt him freeze as his lips parted.Oh, God! Why is it painful to call him that?I laughed without humor and shook my head. "I missed that."He caressed my hands again and kissed them. "I'm sorry… I'm sorry, So
Solana's POVI was watching Jordan as he prepared the bed. He's been taking care of me ever since I woke up last night in the hospital. He's not saying anything but I know something is going on inside his head. I know him very well. I know he's angry about what happened. Who wouldn't? Even I felt so angry and disgusted. I can still feel those dirty bastard's hands on my body. It's so traumatizing but I'm keeping my courage since I know that Jordan is affected. He must be so worried. Silly me! Of course, he's worried. He loves me. I know. He told me."Come here, Solana. You have to sleep early. Don't think of anything." Jordan's voice was sweet and soothing.I stared at him while I sat on the bed. He pulled the blanket and put it over my body. He sat beside me and looked at me. "Lay on the bed."I shook my head. "I'm not sleepy yet."He nodded and held my hand instead. He caressed them and kissed the back of it. "I'm sorry…""For what?""For coming late."Late. He wasn't late. He came
