Eliza is currently inside the bus, as she is now taking a trip to Lockwood County, where she is going to have a meeting there with Grandma Miranda's grandson, Quiel Montecillo.

A few hours later she saw the signboard which is the entrance to Lockwood County. The bus conductor was kind enough to drop her off at the main entrance of the Montecillo Farm. Eliza roamed her eyes around, and she mostly saw vast fields, green trees and many horses. She is now wondering on how can she get into the Montecillo's main house...

Eliza snaps out from her reverie when she heard a horse's footsteps coming towards her direction. She squinted her eyes to get a good look at the man who's riding the horse. She gasped in surprise when she realized that it was Quiel Montecillo, the one that she is looking forward to meet.

    "Are you willing to get married to me, even though we're not in love each other?" Eliza did a follow-up question."Well, there's nothing to lose, right? Grandma Miranda wants the both of us to be okay. And well, let's see what will happen to our marriage." Quiel replied."You don't have someone else that you love? I mean, don't you have someone else special like a girlfriend or something?" Eliza bombarded him with numerous questions."For your first question, no, I am not in love with someone else. Secondly, I don't have someone special and as a result, I don't have a girlfriend. And last but not the least, I'm a very much single man. I'm a bachelor from head to toe." Quiel responded to all of Eliza's questions. Eliza became speechless after hearing all of those things from him. She doesn't know what to say anymore, and she is extremely overwhelmed with the sudden turn of events."You don't have to make a decision right away, Eliza. For the meantime, please stay here at the farm, and
