Chapter 23

Alexis

Bogsh!!!

I was startled by a sudden thud.

What was that?

When I turned to look at Zac on the couch, he had fallen to the floor!

I knew it.

I approached him and tried to wake him up.

"Zac, wake up. Move to the bed and I'll take your place here." I gently tapped his face.

But he just wouldn't budge, He's sleeping!

I wonder why I always call him ugly. The guy in front of me now is so handsome!

How much more if he is not sleeping? I'm sure girls are always drooling while looking at him.

I'm also a bit proud that this ugly guy became my husband, hehe.

But the truth is, my heart belongs to Bebe alone. That's a fact!

Zac didn't want to wake up, so I just covered him with a blanket.

But he suddenly pulled me down to lie beside him.

And now I'm in his arms. What's wrong with this ugly guy?!

But to be fair, his armpits smell so good. It's so tempting to sniff.

Until my eyelids grew heavy.

I'm sleepy!

I couldn't move because of how tightly Zac was holding me.

I snu

    Chapter 24AlexisI was about to enter Bebe's mansion when someone suddenly grabbed my hand. "Zac? What are you doing here?" I asked in confusion. He chuckled. "We're invited here. We're the honored guests," he explained."Why didn't you tell me? So I wouldn't be shocked and hurt! Why?" I asked, tears streaming down my face. "Can you handle going inside? We're all in the business world, Alexis. Love is the least important thing; power is what matters most," Zac replied softly.Bullshit power! Why does something like this still exist in the world?"I want to go inside and talk to Rond. He didn't even tell me, and it's unfair!" I exclaimed softly. But I will never cry again. However, my heart felt like it had been crushed into a million pieces! "Change your clothes first," Zac replied. I glance at what he is wearing and only then I notice that he is in formal attire."I don't have a dress, I didn't plan for this," I replied sadly. "Don't worry. Debbie is waiting for you in the c

    Chapter 25AlexisWhen I got inside the car, I burst into uncontrollable sobs. I couldn't take it! I loved Rond so much. He was my one and only Bebe, my only boyfriend, and the only one in my life. And in just an instant, everything changed and vanished! It's so unfair. He didn't even say goodbye beforehand. It wouldn't have hurt so much if he had."Stop it, besh, you'll get ugly," Debbie said. "I don't care! Rond is gone. Why, besh?" I asked tearfully. "Just cry, besh, I don't have the answer to your question either," Debbie said, also getting teary-eyed."We're so unlucky, besh huhu." I continued crying, and Debbie burst into tears too, as we hugged each other."Care to have a drink, girls?" Zac suddenly chimed in. I realized he had been sitting in the front seat all along. "I'm in, Zac!" Debbie exclaimed, suddenly excited. Wow, the mood shifted quickly. "Are you sure?" I asked cautiously."Yeah, let's relax and unwind," she replied with a smile. I suddenly look at Zac.Ah

Debbie asked in shock."Hehe, Did I? My voice still sounds good besh! I'm not drunk yet, bwahaha!" I laughed while grabbing another bottle. But Debbie snatched it away from me."Oh my gosh, you're crazy! You'll wait until your tongue gets numb? You're drinking so fast!" Debbie said, hardly believing it."That's mine, besh! Let's party, hehe." I said, grabbing the wine. But Zac snatched it away from my hand."Let's go home. It's getting late," he said with a frown."Oh no! Zac's back to being grumpy, how ugly hahaha!" I burst out laughing. Debbie and Hector couldn't help but laugh too, but then they saw how serious Zac's face was.Suddenly, he swooped me up in a piggyback ride! I was mortified - we even paraded in front of a crowd of people."Put me down! What's wrong with you?"But the more I shouted, the more people

I hugged it tight and I wanted to sleep again."I think you're abusing me, baby," Zac's voice said.I looked up, and there was Zac! Oh no! I still had drool on my face."Huh? Zac, why are you here?" I asked, confused."It's our bed. It's only natural that I'm here," he replied, his tone indicating he wasn't in the mood for questions."Ah, yeah, right. But what I mean is, why are we sleeping next to each other?" I asked, puzzled."Tsk! Who was scared of ghosts last night? And please, get off my arm, I've gone numb already," he explained.Right! I'm forgetful nowadays. I got up and Zac's arms felt relieved. But his arms still seemed numb. I could see the pain on his face."Sorry, Zac. Should I massage it to get rid of the numbness?" I asked and immediately began to massage his arm."Ouch! No, thanks. You might make it even worse," he said, brushing my hands away. Exaggerated! "Okay, suit yourse

Good thing Zac Woke up! "What happened?" he asked, still sounding sleepy. Don't fall asleep again, Zac!"Manong is acting like a demon! And look at the road! This isn't the way home anymore, huhu," I replied tearfully. Zac immediately looked at Manong, and in an instant, he pulled out a gun! This is turning into an action movie again! What's happening to my life, huhu? I'm going to faint, and I'll drool.Not again!No, I must be strong. It's embarrassing! Zac's hands moved swiftly, and he grabbed the gun from Manong. Without hesitation, Zac pulled the trigger, and Manong's head jerked back!I felt like vomiting, but I held it in. I must be strong! Our car screeched to a halt, but Zac quickly grasped the steering wheel and stopped the car at the side of the road. He threw Manong out of the window.

It seems like just yesterday, you were crying uncontrollably over Amanda's passing. I just can't believe you replaced her so easily." The ugly man was still smiling, but then a glimmer of sadness flashed in Granpa's eyes. He looked like he was about to cry. Is Amanda my grandmother? Poor Grandpa, if she's gone. And that ugly, stupid man is just smiling."Shut up! It's because of your evil son!" Grandpa shouted. And to make matters worse,

And due to my overwhelming happiness, I hugged him tightly. But he immediately pushed me away!Damn you, Ugly. "Who are you?" he asked, furrowing his brow. Oh no, don't tell me? The door opens, and the doctor and Grandpa entered!"Zac, you're awake now!" Grandpa exclaimed with extreme joy. "Mr. Night? What are you doing in here?" Zac asked, puzzled. It's unfair! He recognizes Grandpa, but I'm a stranger to him. "Hey, Doc, what happened to him?" Grandpa asked seriously.

And Zac is still sleeping? I quickly wiped away my drool, relieved that he didn't see it. I touched his face, lightly slapping his handsome features. "Zac, wake up!" I said. But he just groaned and pulled me back into a hug.What's wrong with me? My face is burning, and my whole body too! Gosh, don't tempt me, Zac! I tried to pull away, but his grip on me was tight.

    Chapter 37AlexisIt feels like just yesterday when my family flew to Italy. It was just last week, but I'm already missing them so much. Grandpa often calls and video calls, and so do Mommy and Daddy. The only thing is, I'm not used to Mommy's new look – fierce but she still looks stunning! And Daddy, being the tough Tiger he is, has clearly been whipped by Mom, the Lion – haha!And this time, we're the ones flying to Spain. Yes, it's Debbie's wedding! They seem to be in a hurry.

    Chapter 36AlexisThis is it – we were all at the airport, and it was time to say goodbye to my family. I felt an overwhelming sadness wash over me. I'd been crying in the car earlier, clinging to Mommy as we hugged tightly. I will miss her, and Daddy too, despite his constant scolding. And Grandpa... who would cook chicken soup and call me "little princess?"The thought of living without them, even though I can still see them, is unbearable. I don't think I can handle it."Shh, show them you can do it. Don't show them you're weak. They'll just worry more," Zac whispered, holding me close. Thankfully, his amnesia had brought out this side of him, and I had him to lean on now. He'd been my rock these days, always there for me and being sweet. But what would happen when the real Zac returned? Would he still be sweet to me? Probably, but as a friend and little sister, not as...more. Why was I even thinking about that now? Don't get too attached, Alexis! Shut up, brain, you're a

Lara's also here, so our group is complete, except for the traitor Joanna. She got her revenge on me, but I still hope karma catches up to her. They're all having a great time, and it's lovely to see them so happy. We're having a barbecue party in our heart-shaped pool. Grandpa's happily jumping around in the water, while Mommy and Daddy are sweetly eating together at the table.

Dad was shaking his head, watching them. The real highlight is Hector and Debbie, they're so sweet, it's like they're glued together. I'm happy for my friend,

"Zac, we're just going to get some fresh air outside, okay?" I said, taking my leave. "Go ahead," he replied curtly. But Debbie slipped out of my grasp."Wait a minute, girl," she quickly walked over to Hector. And kissed his lips! Debbie, you're so shameless. Zac seemed unfazed, so I looked away, trying to avoid the awkwardness. "We're stepping out for a bit, babe," Debbie said sweetly, after devouring, I mean, kissing Hector's lips. "Take care," he replied and gently held her face."Ahem! We're just going outside, not to Canada, haha. Let's go!" I pulled Debbie away. Meanwhile, the two of them were still gazing lovingly at each other. Good grief, some people just have all the luck. But I am happy that my friend has finally found her soulmate. What about me?

He sat down on the couch and let out a sigh. "I'm sorry for what happened in your life, especially about your marriage," he said softly.Daddy looks sad! "It's okay, Daddy. As long as I don't have to be a Mafia, I'm fine with it," I replied."I looked for trouble when I fell in love with your Mom," he said, shaking his head. "But I love her, and I'm willing to do anything for her. Yet, you've been the one to suffer." He continued, "I arranged for you to marry Zac for our family's protection. Since he's indebted to your grandfather, he agreed." Daddy said."Protection? But Zac isn't a Mafia, is he?" I asked, confused. "Yes, he's not," he explained. "But their family is one of the most powerful in the country and internationally. They have many connections with powerful mafias, like his frien
