Amber PovI have no choice but to bring Phil along and introduce him to my classmates. But I gave him one condition. I will introduce him to my classmates not as my husband but as my cousin. The reason I gave him was our contract. We are just a couple in front of his family and some situations. But in front of my classmates Phil and I don't have to pretend that we are a couple. My classmates shouldn't know that I am married even if it is just a contract marriage or a fake marriage because no one will have the courage to like or date me in the future because they know that I am already married. So Phil has also no choice but to agree to my condition."Migz, is it okay if my cousin will join us?" I asked my classmate when I returned to our table and Phil was with me. "Because I live at their house and he wants me to go home so I'm just making him wait until we're done," I explained to them. "Yes, of course," Migz answered quickly. He stood up and pulled out a chair for Phil to sit on
Amber Pov After talking with Migz, we went back to our table together. I was surprised to see that Phil was very drunk. "What happened to him? Why is he so drunk?" I asked Mildy as I sat back in my seat. I was only gone for about half an hour and when I came back I found Phil very drunk. He easily got drunk. Maybe he has low alcohol tolerance. "It's not our fault that your cousin got drunk, Amber. When you left, he almost finished the wine he bought," Henry answered my question to Mildy. "Amber, you're already here. What did you and Migz do in the bathroom and it take so long for the two of you to get back here?" Phil asked me, his eyes were slightly closed from being so drunk. But it is impressive that even though he is very drunk, he still could speak straight. "Guys, I will go home first. You saw my cousin, I have to take him home," I said goodbye to my classmates. "Happy birthday again, Migz. I am sorry for what my cousin had told you. Maybe he's going through some problem
Amber Pov If I had trouble getting Phil to his car I had even more trouble getting him to our room. Because he is too mischievous and I am worried that we might fall down the stairs. So when I finally got him into our room it was like a heavy thing was lifted from of my chest. I am also thankful that all the maids were already in their rooms and resting when we arrived. They didn't see Phil acting like a child because he was so drunk. Phil will certainly lose his face in front of all the maids when they see him acting far from his everyday behavior. "Amber," Phil muttered softly as he plopped down on top of the bed. "Don't make any noise and just sleep well," I told him even though I knew what I was going to say wouldn't register in his brain. I smiled when I saw that the bunny's headband was still on his head. He will surely be surprised when he wakes up the next day and finds herself wearing a pink headband.I couldn't help but laugh before I walk to the bathroom and took a hal
Amber PovWhen I woke up the next day, Phil was still sound asleep in his position. I immediately went to the bathroom to take a shower while he was still asleep. I already finished taking a shower but he was still asleep so I decided to go out of our room to make coffee.I was about to make Phil some soup but suddenly I changed my mind when I remembered that he put me hung up last night while we were in the middle of making love. So instead of cooking soup for him, I will just take care of myself.I was about to leave our room when I remembered the bracelet that Migz gave me last night. It was still in the pocket of my uniform and I forgot to take it. I immediately took my skirt from the laundry basket and get the bracelet and put it on my left wrist. Migz isn't here so he won't see and know that I wore the bracelet he gave me.I just want to try if the bracelet fits my hand. In my entire life, I have never worn expensive jewelry. But I will not wons this bracelet, I will return this
Amber PovIt's already past ten in the evening but Phil still hasn't come home. He often comes home before seven o'clock and we eat together before eight o'clock in the evening. But now he is still out. He didn't say that he would be late coming home because when he has a dinner meeting, he tells me or Grandpa that he will come home late so that we don't have to wait for him to eat. I can't help but worry about him even more especially now that the kidnapping people is circulating everywhere. Even though they only kidnap girls who are about my age, what if they have changed their minds and they want to kidnap people like Phil because their organs are definitely healthy?I tried to call Phil on his cell phone but he didn't answer. I felt more and more worried about him.I decided to go out of our room to see if he had arrived. I didn't turn on the light anymore because I had memorized every corner of the house. I didn't think I would be able to memorize Phil's house so quickly even t
Amber PovI did not inform Phil that I saw him at the mall with Bovic and Pao. I didn't even ask if the two of them had a relationship. I also didn't show that I was angry with him because of what I saw. He might just tell me that I'm assuming too much. Maybe the two of them had a secret relationship and it was just a misunderstanding that's why he kicked Bovic out of this house before. And also maybe it's to convince me so I would go back to his house and continue the drama we started based on the contract we both signed. "Your car is coding now, Amber, right? Just have Phil drive you to school so you won't be late," Grandpa said to me when he saw me coming down the stairs. I was about to open my mouth to reject his suggestion but Phil's words cut me off. "I'm in a hurry so I couldn't taker her to school, Grandapa," Phil quickly disagree. And before Grandpa could speak, Phil quickly left the house. He didn't even glance at me. Suddenly, my chest tightened when he just ignored me
Amber Pov I've been standing beside the road and waiting for a taxi but I have been waiting here for almost an hour and I still couldn't get a taxi or even an SUV to ride on. I'm already feeling nervous because I'm standing alone on the side of the road waiting for a ride. The taxi in this area only seldom stop because when they pass here they already have passengers on board. No jeeps pass through this area because only private cars, taxis, and SUVs pass through this area. I'm really unlucky because here comes the heavy rain pouring down little by little. I felt annoyed because there was nothing I could shelter in this area. If I cross the road back to the park, it's even scarier there because it's dark. I don't know why the local government doesn't put a street light in that park. I think this is the only park I know that doesn't have lights at night. Maybe because there are only a few people who visit that park because they only had three slides that children can use to enjoy.
Amber Pov I woke up when I felt something warm and soft touch my lips. Someone is kissing me! I immediately remembered what happened before I lost consciousness. Thinking that the person kissing me was one of the men chasing me before I passed out, I suddenly scratched his face and freak out. I heard him moaning but I didn't care. I just continued to scratch him as I screamed in panic but I didn't manage to hurt him again. "Get away from me! You monster! Get away from me!" I screamed with my eyes closed. "Amber, calm down. It's me, Phil." I heard that familiar voice of a man. I stopped attacking him as my eyes opened. "P-Phil," I said his name. My tears immediately fell as I hugged him tightly. I temporarily forgot what I saw about him and Bovic. The only thing I feel now is that I am happy that he was the person I saw when I opened my eyes and not those men who were chasing me. "Ssh... it's okay. You're safe now. They didn't succeed in the evil they planned to do against you,
Amber PovI was lying on a cold floor when I woke up while my hands and feet were tied. I force myself to get up and sit on the floor. I was surprised when I saw Grandpa Fidel one meter away from me. Just like me, he was also lying on the floor with his hands and feet tied up. I quickly approached him to wake him up."Wake up, Grandpa. Wake up," I slightly shook his shoulder to wake him up.I scanned the place where we in and I think we were inside an old or abandoned warehouse.Grandpa Fidel finally opened his eyes and furrowed when she saw me. "Amber? What are you doing here? Did that bastard Jigo kidnap you too?" he asked me angrily."Calm down, Grandpa. Okay?" I quickly stopped him from getting angry. I'm worried that it worsened his health. "I was kidnapped by three men while I was on my way to my wedding. I didn't know who kidnapped me but since you said that you were kidnapped by Phil's uncle I guess that he was the person who ordered these men to kidnap me," I explained to him
Phil PovToday is Amber and Jared's wedding and also the day that my heart will die. Because I don't think I could love a woman just like how much I love Amber. My heart is hurting like hell thinking that it was really over between us. She will live happily with Jared and their future children while I am in pain and miserable."Instead of staying here and making yourself miserable; why don't you just go to the church and stop her wedding with that man? I'm sure Amber will choose you if you only show up now," Alex advises me."You don't know how much I wanted to go and stop their wedding but I can't do it," I replied while shaking my head."Why? Don't tell me that you can't accept her child with Jared?"I quickly shake my head. "It's not about that, Alex. You know the dangerous situation I'm facing right now. So I just have to let her get married to that man for her safety."Unbeknownst to Amber, I already talked with her father. Peter finds me and speaks with me without telling his d
Amber Pov I took one last glance at Mildy's apartment before walking out the gate. This apartment helped me a lot. It has been my home for several years. And starting tonight, I won't be able to sleep in this apartment because I'll be living in Jared's house after our wedding. "Are you really sure about your decision to marry Jared, Amber? Are you sure you won't regret it one day?" Mildy asked me when we got into her car. Her car was the bridal car I chose to take me to the church where Jared was waiting for me. "You think I'm not serious when I'm already wearing a wedding dress and going to the church to get married?" I answered her shaking my head. "What if Phil suddenly appears in the church and objects to your marriage with Jared? What would you do if that happened, Amber?" she asked me with a serious face. I took a deep breath before I answered her question." I closed the chapter of the book of my life with Phil, Mildy. And then ever since he found out I was pregnant and
Amber Pov When I opened my eyes, my child's condition immediately entered my mind. I quickly felt my stomach and if it still contained the child. I felt great concern for my baby when I remembered that I was suddenly bleeding as Phil forced me into his car. If something bad happens to my baby, I will never forgive him. "You are pregnant. Who is the father of that baby, Amber?" I looked to my right side when I heard Phil's cold voice. I was so worried about my future child that I didn't notice his presence in the room I was in. When I looked at Phil's face, his expression was blank. But even though I couldn't see his reaction on his face to what he discovered, I could feel the anger in his voice. Maybe he thinks that the child in my belly is my child with Jared and not his. He should think that way so he won't bother me anymore. "Don't worry because this child is not yours so you are safe from responsibility," I answered him in a cold voice. This time I saw an expression on hi
Amber Pov I couldn't believe it after hearing the truth from my father's mouth. He confessed everything to me and did not hide anything except the person who ordered him to kill Phil's parents. He said that he was afraid that he might suddenly disappear from the world and the whole truth would be buried with him so he mustered courage and finally showed up in front of me. He also confessed to me how he did to make everyone think that he was dead. According to my father's story, inside the car, both his bosses were fast asleep because the coffee he made and let them drink before they got in the car was mixed with sleeping pills. After the couple fell asleep he took them to the place where he was going to execute the plan of killing his two bosses. In a place where cars rarely pass by he brought them. In that same place, there is a big truck parked on the side of the road that he will use to deliberately crash into his boss's car while they are inside so that everyone will think that
Amber Pov "What did you just say, Phil?" I asked him. It was as if I suddenly became deaf to what he told me. "I said, YOUR FATHER KILLED MY PARENTS!" he repeated what he said emphatically. He even emphasized the words I would not believe. I gave him a hard slap. I will not allow him to speak and think badly of my father. "My dad won't kill people, Phil! So if you don't have anything nice to say, just leave us now!" I shouted at him. Phil's face darkened even more when I didn't believe what he said. He approached me and held my arm tightly. "Why, Amber? Are you hurt because I said that your father is a murderer? What about me? Wasn't I hurt when he killed my parents?" he asked me with angry eyes. I was about to open my mouth to contradict what he said but it didn't go through because my stomach suddenly hurt. I bent down slightly and held my stomach with one hand. "Dad, my stomach hurts," I said to my father. My Dad seems to know that I'm pregnant because he has a strange lo
Amber Pov I quickly covered Mildy's mouth with my palm because her voice got louder. "Can you lower your voice? Maybe someone will hear you," I frowned at her. Mildy immediately removed my palm from her mouth and raised an eyebrow at me. "We're here in the hospital room, so who can hear my voice except you and me? Besides, even if people out there hear that you're pregnant, they don't care because they don't know you, anyway." "Even so," I quickly answered my friend. "Does Jared know about your condition? And more importantly, does Phil know that you are pregnant with his child?" I nodded and then shook my head at the same time. "Jared just found out today that I'm pregnant and as for your second question, my answer is no. And like I told Jared, I have no intention of letting Phil know that he's going to have a baby with me," I answered with a serious face. Mildy shook her head. "So you're going to hide your child from its father?" I didn't say anything so Mildy made sure what
Amber Pov When I regained consciousness, I was already inside the hospital and lying on the hospital bed. I immediately felt my stomach which was not yet bulging, worrying that my baby might have been harmed. "Don't worry because your baby is safe," I heard Jared talking to me who had just entered the door and caught up with me checking my stomach. I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard what he said but I was suddenly stunned when I realized that he already knew about my pregnancy. "I'm sorry for hiding the truth from you, Jared. But believe me, I never planned to marry you so my child will have a father. I also plan to tell you about my pregnancy when I'm ready to talk to you about this matter," I apologized to him. I can understand if he's going to stay away from me now that he finds out I'm pregnant and Phil is the father. Because not all men can wholeheartedly accept the child of another man or the woman they love. And maybe Jared is one of them. "I'd rather you let me be t
Amber Pov As Jared said, I stopped my nightlife first. I just stayed inside the apartment even though I was feeling very bored. I also bought vitamins for pregnant women that the doctor prescribed and followed her advice. I took care of myself not only for my sake but also for the sake of the baby in my womb. Jared doesn't know about Phil and I's future child yet. I don't know if I should admit it or not to him. I'm worried that he might not accept my baby with another man and raise the child as his own. Although I will feel sad if Jared couldn't accept the child I will feel more disappointed than sad. Because I think he is different from all men. He is not a judgmental person. But it's okay even if he doesn't accept my child because I won't be forced to marry him anymore. I only used him to hurt and make Phil see that I've moved on from him. But Jared thought that what I said was real and I couldn't tell him about it because he would surely get hurt so I had no choice but to g
