When the night comes, they arrive at her boss's mansion. They see Elecxxon sitting on the wide sofa, watching TV, but he sees his father, and he immediately goes down from the sofa. “Hey, little man, be careful,” she immediately told the child, afraid that he might fall from the sofa. Elecxxon thankfully listened to her, then he looked at his father and greeted him, “Hi Daddy, welcome home.” Maximo shakes his head in response. Her lips twisted because of the cold response of the man to his child. She walked closer to the child to comfort him.“Hey, don’t you miss me too?" she said, pouting.The child turned his attention to her and hugged her in response; she also hugged back. She liked this little boy. “I missed you, Auntie Lara. Can you sleep with me tonight and read me some stories?" he asked with a soft voice.She softly brushes the child’s hair using her fingers and squeezes his fat cheeks. “Yes—”“No! She will stay with me tonight. Sleep on your own,” Maximo said, using a se
LARA could not still forget what she just discovered. Her older sister turns out to be the mother of Elecxxon. Her older sister, Maddie, has a son, and it's Elecxxon, his boss's nephew. She’s not been in her right mind for the past few days; everything has become complicated, and she doesn't know how to face it. She has been looking for her Ate Maddie for a long time. She was the reason why she was in Nevada, California. She wants to search for her; she wants to know the truth, where her older sister goes and is okay wherever she is. Her last news was she was working with a large company but she never told her she had a boyfriend and worse, she had a baby. No wonder she’s comfortable with Elecxxon; it's because they are blood-related.She sighed and quickly called for Chief Mikael Louise Winston, the police she had approached to find her sister."Good morning, chief, is there any news for my sister?" She asked immediately.Chief Mikael was half Filipino and half American. He’s handsom
AS EXPECTED, Maximo had no intention of telling her the truth, so she pushed him. She badly wanted to shut up or hurt him to ease the anger she felt at that moment; she felt betrayed. “Don't you ever come near me!” She told him firmly. However, it seems Maximo does have a plan to listen to her. He grabbed her arms and pulled her towards him. “Why would l obey you? Did you forget who is the real boss between us?” One of her eyebrows arose upon hearing his response. “Don't you ever use that on me! Or else you won't like what l will do next,” she said seriously. "Try me then," he challenged her. She gives him a death glare and raises her hand to slap him; she’s mad at him. She could feel her heart was about to burst because of hatred, stress, and frustration. Before her hand touched his cheeks, the man grabbed it and before she knew it, she was already lying in bed, and the man was on top of her.Maximo holds her hand together and puts it above her head so she cannot move it. She
MAXIMO froze when he heard Lara's sobbing. Did she hate him that much? To the point she will cry this way as if he made a huge mistake with her. He couldn't help but pull her to face him. When he examined the woman's face, her cheeks were wet with tears. Something stabbed his heart while looking at her. He hates seeing her like this. He hugged her. Hoping this would help to comfort her. “I-I'm sorry if l was harsh l just miss you so much…”Lara did not give him a response. Instead, she cried harder, which made him panic. "Shhh, stop crying, please. Baby, I'm really sorry if I force you tonight. I-I just can't control myself when it comes to you. Hey, please stop crying. I won't do it again," he pleads and brushes her hair using his finger as his other free hand strokes her back to calm her. After a few minutes, Lara calms down and before he knows it, he hears her snoring. She fell asleep in his arms. He closed his eyes and sighed. "What should I do with you?" he asks the woman whi
WHEN Lara woke up the next day. Maximo was no longer by her side. She sighed and just went straight to the bathroom. After an hour, she finished preparing herself to go to work. When she was going down the stairs, she saw Elecxxon. Surprisingly, he was not alone. An unfamiliar woman was talking to him. Strangely, she suddenly feels an emotion she could explain. Is it jealousy? She shook her head, she couldn't answer her own question, since she was not certain. Elecxxon saw her, then the kid smiled at her when their eyes met. Then the woman he was talking to, also turned her head to her direction, she could see how her expression changed upon seeing her. “Maddie?” the woman exclaimed in horror. One of her eyebrows arose upon seeing her reaction. Did she just call her “Maddie?” That was her older sister's name. Does it mean, this woman knows her sister? The woman thinks she was her sister, is it because they have similar faces? She gave her a half smile. “I'm sorry, ma’am, but i'm n
LARA felt like she was floating, she was walking without knowing her destination. She was staring blankly, thinking how unfortunate she was to meet Maximo, who was her sister's ex and now her fuck buddy. She was lost and depressed at the same time. She looked up at the sky and when the rain started, she laughed at the thought; it seemed nature was with her. She stayed in the streets for one hour until she decided to go home to her apartment. It was already late when she reached her apartment. Yes, her apartment. She will not go home to Maximo's mansion, for what purpose if she will? He made it clear to her what kind of relationship they were having and who his love was. It's hard for her to accept that her rival was her sister. However, it's much harder to accept the fact that her rival is dead, but it seems in Maximo's heart she is still alive. Although she was with him, and providing all his needs, he still loved her older sister, not her. She closed her eyes firmly and she rested
LARA just got home. She bought gifts from the mall for her family and friends in the Philippines. She puts the plastic bag on the wide table by the side of her sofa, then she walks straight to her kitchen to find food to eat. When she was at the mall a while ago, she surprisingly didn't feel hungry, but now she's home, she suddenly craves something to eat. She opens the refrigerator from her left side to find something to eat. Her eyes stop when she sees an egg tray. She doesn't know why, but she suddenly craves it, so she immediately gets the eggs from its tray. The eggs aren't particularly large, but they're fulfilling enough to satisfy her hunger. She hurriedly opens the gas stove, then she finds a kettle to be used to boil the eggs.Then, out of nowhere, she just finds herself singing this song,"Eggs are round, eggs are round,If you inhale its fragrance, you will be charmed by its smell.Eggs are round. Eggs are round if you try to open them.You will be captivated by its unique
WHEN they arrived in front of a tall condominium in Nevada, Maximo looked at the woman who was still sleeping soundly beside him. He just shook his head. Why did he bother himself with delivering this girl? Come to think of it, he has no obligation to her."But she is your secretary," his mind reminded him.He shook his head and got out of the driver's seat and went to the other door of his car, where his secretary was sleeping. When he opened the door, the woman fell. Fortunately, he caught her quickly."Oh, woman! You'll be the death of me!" He complained when her chest hit his body and he saw her cleavage. While entering the elevator, he was surprised when a woman pushed him. She almost fell to the floor and might have wound her lips if he didn't catch her. He didn't want that to happen. He couldn't agree. Those lips were so precious to him that he even wondered if he could tease them. When the elevator opened, he lifted his secretary without saying a word. They looked like newlyw

Lara woke up the next day because of the noise she heard. She opened her eyes and saw Maximo standing at the door while he was talking to his son, Elecxxon. "Dad, why didn't I see Auntie Lara when I woke up? Did you bring her to your room?” the boy asked loudly. She waited for the man to answer. "Yes." It was a short reply. She wants to laugh. She didn't know that her boss was so obsessed with her that he took her from the child's nursery room and brought her to his room. "Why?" the child asked his father with a slight anger in his voice, as if his father had made the biggest mistake by bringing her to his room. "No more questions, kiddo. Let's go; you need to eat your breakfast and take your vitamins too," the man said seriously and picked up the child. She shook her head, got up, and went to the bathroom with only a blanket on her. She took it off before entering and also played Madonna's raunchy song, "Like a Virgin." She was immediately startled and couldn't stop herself fro
LARA is outside the Winston mansion with her boss, Maximo Winston. She stared at the mansion in front of her. She had been employed by her boss for a long time, but she had never been here before, not just today. The mansion is beautiful, and the structure is modern. There is a wide garden. In the middle of it, there's a big fountain that is currently flowing with water, which gives comfort to the plants surrounding it. The gate is automatic; when they enter, it opens immediately."Welcome to Winston Mansion, my lady," formally greeted the man standing across from the just-opened door.She smiled at him, but it faded immediately when Maximo pulled her closer."Come here, let's get inside," he said, using a serious tone.Lara nodded and looked around. She never thought that she would enter this beautiful house.She smiled. "It's beautiful," she thought."Daddy! Daddy! You're home! I miss you!"Her smile faded. She stared at the boy running towards them. It's fat, but handsome. He has a
AFTER their meeting. The handsome man she admired earlier remained. "They seem so close." She thought while watching her boss talk to the handsome man. They are talking about business. As for her understanding, the man was a lawyer, and his name was Tyeron Bon Vanderburgh. Her boss hired him to create a contract agreement about an advertisement offered by their company, and so far, the hotel owner has accepted their offer and agreed to have a contract with them. So they only have one day to stay at this hotel, and they will return to Nevada. At night, she was surprised to see her boss leaning on the refrigerator. "Get dressed," he ordered seriously. She raised her eyebrows because she could not believe what she was hearing. "Is there another meeting again?" She asked in confusion. "Nope, just change; don't ask," he responded gruffly. "Hmmmp! He's being grumpy again!" She noticed that her boss has not been in a good mood since their meeting, and his silence is killing her. Altho
