LILIANA POVI almost jump out of my skin when Xavier spoke by my side. I didn't expect him to come back too soon."Ahm, well, it was one of our guests Xavier. That was Takashi. He just talked to me and shared his impression of the place. And he said he liked it hear." I explained.He moved closer and pulled me closer to him. I can feel the hardness of his chest."Yes, I know love. Sorry, I am not used to seeing you talking with another man. But that was good, at least they have a positive review on our resort," he responds.My husband looks so tired. It was indeed a very tiring day for both of us."Xavier, I think it is time to go home." I invited him. He agreed with me. I went back to my office to gather my things. Rosie will stay for a while to finish some remaining tasks.I went down the building and found my husband with the bodyguards waiting for me.It took us 5 minutes before we reached our home from the office. The distance between the mansion and the resort was just about a f
LILIANA POVI am in Xavier's car. He decided to drive for me while the bodyguards are in another car, behind us. I am looking outside from the car's window. Still, I can't forget the dream I had last night. It was so strange, it seems that the dream left a great impact on me. That even, until now, I can't forget about it. I remember the woman in that dream, she was in danger."Love, are you alright?" I turned to look at my husband."Sorry, Xavier. I just can't forget the nightmare from last night," I want to be honest with him."I told you, Lily, it was just a dream. You shouldn't take it seriously. Maybe, you feel that way, because it was your first nightmare. Maybe before the accident and before you lost all your memories, you had bad dreams too. So don't be bothered by that," he said."Yes, Xavier. I will make myself busy today. I need to forget that dream," I told him.He kissed my hand and then placed it on his chest. He always wants me to feel his heartbeat. The heartbeat that w
LILIANA POVI went home with my bodyguards. Xavier called me, he will be home by 8 p.m. tonight. He needs to meet with some investors from Europe. They came along the way to meet him. I ate dinner alone. I saw the medicines that the attendants brought for me. Instead of drinking it, I placed it in my pocket. I need to try it again. For the last time, I will follow Takashi's instructions. I was tempted to follow his words.When I reached my room, I went to the sink inside the bathroom to flash the medicines.I took a quick shower before preparing myself to sleep.I feel scared to sleep alone. I hope Xavier will be home soon. But my body was betraying me, I feel very tired today. I decided to lie down instead of waiting for my husband to come home. I tried to convince myself to sleep until I dozed."Lily! Lily!" I heard a man's voice calling my name.I turned around to search for him. I am in an abandoned building. He must be somewhere in this place."Hello? Who are you? Where are you
LILIANA POVI insisted to go to my office today. Xavier made it clear last night that I need to stay at home. But I refused. I am sitting in my office right now checking the progress of our resort through my laptop. Xavier was sitting on the couch near my table with his laptop too.He was focused on his work and he brought it here instead of staying at his office."Xavier, I think you will be more comfortable in your office," I started."No love. I am at ease if I am here beside you," he gave me a wink.I just laughed and went back to my work."Why? You don't want to see my handsome face all day?" he teased me."Of course I do. But, I'm fine here Xavier," I leaned on my swivel chair."I will stay here Liliana, I will not leave you," he continued.I remember Takashi. I need to talk to him today, but it was too impossible. Xavier was here, I don't want my husband to know about Takashi's communications with me. I want to know more, it seems Takashi could give me a good answer."What are
LILIANA POVThe sun just set and it is almost dark. Still, I am in my office to finish some work while waiting for my husband. Takashi and his revelations still linger in my mind. I can't believe him that easily, he could be an enemy in the first place. I need to tell my husband about this as soon as possible. Takashi is trying to destroy the trust I have for Xavier. But why will he do this? Is he working for my brother? Or, what if Takashi is telling the truth? Does this mean that Xavier is lying to me?"Madam?" Rosie called for me."Sir Xavier is waiting for you at the cottage ma'am. He prepared a simple dinner," I felt so much excitement to hear my husband's name. I am like a teenager, so excited to see her ultimate crush.I proceed to the cottage immediately, and there I saw Xavier sitting with a bouquet in his hands.I felt the butterflies inside my stomach. We are now married but still, he will do this thing to me. I moved closer to him. The moment is too magical and romantic. T
LILIANA POVXavier made it clear that I shouldn't go to my office today. After, what happened yesterday, and until Takashi will not be caught, my life is in danger. My husband left early in the morning to look into the business as well as to meet with the police to have some follow-up on the killings of my staff. Xavier made sure that Mica's remains will be brought home safely today in her hometown in Ho Chi Minh City. I felt devastated knowing my staff was killed. I can't believe, Takashi is a killer. Why did he kill Mica? Do they even know each other? Who is Takashi? Why did he try to get close to me?There are so many questions in my mind. I need answers. I hope the investigators will have additional details today.I am browsing the internet, the news is all over social media right now. It created so much noise here in Vietnam. I hope this will not reach the Philippines, my enemies will come for me. Surely, Takashi could be an enemy. He wants to destroy my relationship with Xavier.
LILIANA POVI sat on the bed and wrapped the blanket around my naked body."What did you say? Kill?" I don't like the word he used. It made me nervous and worried. I don't want anyone to die.Xavier laughed as he looked at my expression."Is that a joke Xavier?" I frowned."Yes love, of course, it was just a joke. I can't afford to kill anyone, anyway, we have to authorities to make a move," he pulled me and I landed on his broad chest. "But I admit Lily, I can do bad things just to keep you safe. I don't care if someone will hurt, as long as I will make sure that you are protected all the time," he continued.I moved closer aiming for his lips. I kissed him passionately. This is what I want to do, to kiss him now and then.We stayed on our bed a few minutes more before we decided to wear our clothes and eat our dinner. "How's everything in the resort Xavier? I hope you will permit me to go to work tomorrow. Anyway, you tightened the security," I can't take it anymore, the house is
LILIANA POVRosie tried to stop me, but I didn't listen to her. I need to find Xavier, and check if he's alright. I will never forgive myself if something bad happened to him. Four of my bodyguards are with me, including my driver. I am in a separate car, while two of my bodyguards are behind us. We are kilometers away from the resort and we are heading to an abandoned house in Da Lat City.I am sweating and I can feel my hands shaking. I need to be strong.I heard a deafening thud followed by a loud bang, I turned to look behind us, and the car where two of my bodyguards were in just crashed."Stop, we need to help them," I instructed the driver. I need to see what happened to them.The car turned back and we went closer to them. I saw my bodyguards going out of that car. Just in time when I heard four gunshots and my bodyguards in that car fell to the ground. Someone just shot and killed them.We were in a panic. The driver stopped and tried to go away."Ma'am, the enemies are here.
LILIANA POVTwo days from now, Xavier told me that we will leave Hanoi and will return home to Da Lat city. He asked me if possible avoid Hannah. I admit I can't forget the things she told me. Maybe she just trying to break my relationship with Xavier but deep inside me, I want to get things clear. There is something that she wants me to know. I heard a knock on the door, I am hesitant to open thinking it could be Hannah again. Xavier was with his close friend from America today, they are in a lobby to discuss business so I need to stay in our room while he was out."Good morning ma'am," I saw a woman who is a hotel staff smiling at me."Good morning," I smiled at her."Ms. Hannah sent this box of cookies ma'am, she said that she wants to apologize for her misbehavior yesterday," she said.I received the gift and went inside to check on it. These are cookies and it looks yummy. Maybe she likes to show sincerity and apologize for yesterday.On one side of the box, I saw a note. I read
LILIANA POVHe pulled me inside the shower. The warm water soothes my skin. We are both naked as we enjoyed each other's company. Xavier placed some body wash on my back. His touch tickles my skin. I got some shampoo and placed it on my hair. I feel so good thinking that I will take a bath together with my husband. Xavier hugged me from behind. I can still feel his hardness. I turned around to meet his eyes, it was full of lust. He touched my lips and I felt hungry for his kiss again. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. I love him so much, he is my life. I want to remember my past, in that way, I may live a normal life with him in this present time. Our kiss becomes deeper and harder. My hands traced his broad chest, as hard as a rock. He pushed me onto the wall and massaged my breast. I want to welcome his every touch, it was perfect. He stopped his kiss and touched my face. He adores me like a precious jewel."Lily, pleasure me more. Can you?" he asked. I know what wil
LILIANA POVIt took me more than an hour to board the plane before I finally arrived in Hanoi. Xavier was staying at the Sofitel Legend Metropole. The hotel is an alluring property where colonial architecture meets neo-classical luxury. It is one of the landmarks in Hanoi and famous for its good services, especially to guests from outside Hanoi and Vietnam."May I know the room number of Mr. Xavier Blaze?" I asked the woman in the reception area."Room 85 ma'am. It's on the third floor," she said."Thank you," I went immediately to his room. I cannot control my feet from walking toward the elevator. I want to reach the room now. Two of my bodyguards were behind me. I told them to stay in the lobby for a while. I need to talk to Xavier.I finally arrived at the said room number. My heart hammers so fast.I didn't knock anymore, I just pushed open the door. And there I saw Xavier standing furiously in front of a woman wearing a black dress. Her make-up was so thick and her jewelry was e
LILIANA POVI felt my chest tighten after what I discovered. There are so many questions roaming inside my head. My past was full of darkness and sorrow. Could I handle all the truth?Xavier moved closer and held my chin to look him in the eyes. "Liliana, I am here to help you get through all of this. Yes, I admit I asked doctor Tien to give you medicines. Those medicines were not meant to help you remember the memories, it was intended to let you forget everything because I don't want you to recall your past. It was too painful for you Liliana," her voice broke. He hugged me and we both cried."Xavier, I'm sorry," that is all I can say."Shh... don't be sorry Liliana. I know you can't handle all of this. Let me help you carry all the burden," he said."Xavier, tell me what happened. I don't care how painful it was. I just want to know," I can feel the burning pain inside my throat. This emotion was intense. I need to know the truth and I want it to come from Xavier."Hero was desper
LILIANA POVHe was not just pissed off, he was angry with me. I know he will be mad at me, as expected. I hired a detective without his knowledge and it was a clear betrayal to my husband. We reached the hotel room and I can see anger flaming in his eyes."You don't trust me, right?" he bites his lower lips.He was trying to compose himself and I'm trying to find the perfect words to calm him down."I-I'm sorry Xavier. I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just, I need to learn some things on my own," I can feel my hands trembling.I almost jumped out of my skin when he punched the wall of our room."Xavier!" I don't know what to do."You don't trust me. That's it, Liliana. I am your husband but you are keeping all of these from me," he yelled."Xavier, please calm down. Let me explain," I tried to hold him but he moved away."Tell me, your memories are coming back, right? And because of that, you lost your trust in me. Lily, how could you?" the tone of his voice changed. I've never seen hi
LILIANA POVI am now standing with Xavier at the peak of Ti Top Mountain. We are both enjoying the panoramic view of the beautiful Halong Bay. From here, I can also see some beaches where people can enjoy and relax. “Liliana, there are some souvenir shops here, we will go there after taking some pictures,” he said. But I don’t care. Still, I can remember my dream from yesterday. I didn’t tell Xavier. I don’t want him to suspect the memories that recently came back to me.“Maybe we can also visit some beverage stalls before we go to some souvenir stores. What do you think Lily?” he continued.I remained sitting and staring from a distance. I didn’t hear what Xavier was saying. I was too affected by that nightmare. It was the truth and I can’t handle it. I want to know more but it was too difficult.I wonder what I am doing in that room. Hero was there to save me.“Lily? Lily!” Xavier called.I was shocked, my mind was traveling so far that I didn’t even notice Xavier was already stand
LILIANA POVI stood up and tried to compose myself. My eyes were about to release the tears that I am trying to hold back. Xavier moved closer to check on me."Lily," he touched my face."Xavier, sorry. I- I'm fine don't worry. I just remember the things that happened to us these past few days. Sorry, I am just emotional," I explained. I hope he will believe my reasons."Lily, if this is because of what my father told you last time, please erase that from your thoughts. I don't want you to remember him and everything he told you," he continued.I nodded. I need to think of a good reason for him to believe me. I don't want him to know about detective Nam. Not by this time."Lily, I loved you so much you know that. I am willing to risk my life just to protect you and our relationship. If it means that I need to betray my own family, I will do that for you," his eyes spark. I can see the sincerity in his eyes."Please don't be mad at your dad Xavier. I don't want you to hate him because
LILIANA POVI made sure that I will be home before my husband woke up today. He has been asleep for hours since the medicine from doctor Tien took effect on him. I asked the maids to prepare his favorite food. I knew he was still weak, so I brought him his food. I opened the bedroom door and as expected he was now fully awake. I placed his food on the table, his hair was a mess from a deep sleep.“How are you feeling, Xavier?” I was still worried about him.“I feel a little better love. Thank you for being here with me,” he replied.His husky voice always makes me shiver.He reached for my hands and pulled me into a hug. His presence is comforting, I want to stay like this forever.I pulled away and smiled. I want him to forget everything that caused him pain.“Let’s eat Xavier, you need to gain strength. Remember, you promised me that we will have a trip later these days right,” he is right, we need a break from all the pressures.“Yes, Lily. We need a break,” he winked.Three days a
LILIANA POVI tried to push him away but he was too strong. I can't believe this was happening to him. I can't think and focus. I want to break free from his grip."Xavier! Let me go! I can't breathe!" those were the last words that came out of my mouth. And finally, he let me go.I choked and tried to compose myself. This is the first time I felt scared of him.His eyes went wide as he stares at the hand that he used to hold my neck."What is happening to you?" I cried.He looked at me and then around him. His face looks like he has been in a long nightmare and finally, he woke up."I- I'm sorry love," he knelt in front of me.I didn't move and just remained in my place. I am waiting for what will he says next.I saw tears falling from his eyes. I approached him and hugged him tightly. I can't understand why he is like this but I need to comfort him. He needs me."Xavier, you can talk to me. Please tell me what is happening?" I can feel my voice shaking. I thought he would kill me a
