I smiled and leaned in closer. He tried to kiss me, but I moved away. He tightened his grip on my waist.

“Do you want to come to my condo?” he asked as he danced, pressing his body against mine.

I suddenly thought, "I don’t know this guy. I just wanted to have fun, but I didn’t want to go with him."

“I’ll think about it,” I answered. I continued dancing. I took his hand off my waist and put it on my shoulder.

I was facing away from him as I danced. I stopped dancing when my eyes caught sight of Miguel. He was glaring at me angrily. I rolled my eyes and faced the guy again.

“By the way, what’s your name?” I accepted the drink the waiter gave me.

“I’m Nico. But you can call me babe.” He fixed my loose hair.

I suddenly laughed at his cheesiness. “Nice name, Nico. I’m Caroline,” I introduced myself.

“Let’s have another glass?” he asked.

I immediately nodded. He pulled me to the bartender. We were given a glass of wine each. I frowned when I tasted it. It tasted different. This was the fir

    MIGUEL'S POV "You're just her bodyguard," the guy flirting with Caroline laughed. He tried to touch Caroline's arm, but I quickly grabbed his hand."Don't touch her if you don't want to meet St. Peter," I threatened. I pulled Caroline away from him.Nico smirked. I’d wanted to punch him since I saw them kissing. I felt betrayed. I knew Caroline wasn’t mine. I confessed my feelings, but that didn’t mean she liked me too.“I can take her to my condo. Caroline and I talked earlier. She wants to go with me,” he said proudly.My blood boiled with anger even more. I had to control myself because my friend owned this bar. I didn’t want to cause a scene.“I’ll take her home. She doesn’t need to go with you. She’s drunk, she doesn’t know what she’s doing and saying.”I gasped when Caroline hugged me. She was smiling while touching my stomach. I waved to Tommy when I caught his eye. He owned this bar.“Is there a problem, Miggy?” he asked, looking at Nico. “Is this your boss’s son? Seems like

    It was already early morning, but I was still in the kitchen, cooking soup for her. Instead of buying ready-to-eat food at a restaurant, I chose to cook for her. When I was done cooking, I left the sink. I took a bowl and placed the pork sinigang I cooked in it.When I went back inside her room, she was still asleep. I carefully placed the food tray on her study table. I took the blanket that covered her face before waking her up."Caroline, eat something while the soup is still hot."She slowly opened her eyes while one hand was on her head. She stared at me for a moment and closed her eyes again."I want to eat ice cream," she murmured, even with her eyes still closed like earlier when we were on our way home."You can eat ice cream later. Eat something first so your stomach won't be empty." I woke her up again.She looked at me sleepily. "You'll buy me an ice cream?" she asked like a child."I bought you ice cream earlier."I flinched when she suddenly sat up. One hand was on her h

    I smiled bitterly, though I wasn’t sure if I could accept her decision. I wish I hadn’t woken her up if this was what she was going to say. If what she said was true, this would be the second time I've failed in love. Maybe love isn’t for me. I confessed my feelings for her because I didn’t want a repeat of what happened before. But what happened now? She rejected me.“I’ll sleep now. Thank you for taking care of me,” she said coldly and lay back down on her bed.“Good night,” I whispered before taking the bowl. “From now on, I’ll distance myself away from you.”I closed my eyes when my gaze fell on the flower. I took it and brought it outside. I let out a heavy sigh when I saw a garbage can.“She doesn’t like me. I’ll always be her personal bodyguard,” I mumbled before throwing away the flower.I went to the other room. I immediately lay down and closed my eyes. I only now felt sleepy and tired. I took my phone and typed a message to Sir Samson. I’ll send some helpers here. I placed

    The old man approached me. He tried to touch me, but I quickly stepped away from him.“I’m not your son.” I returned the paper to him. “Maybe you’re looking for a different Mary De Castro and not my mother,” I added before turning away from them.I quickened my pace up the stairs. I didn’t have time to deal with their trip. How could Mom have a husband if she only got married once? I just shook my head as I thought about what the old man said. We had the same first name as his son, but our last names were different.I took a deep breath before opening the door when I was outside room 100. I peeked through the window, and I saw Mom lying on the bed with many tubes attached to her body.“Miguel…”I turned to Love Rein. Her clothes were wet and her hair was messy. She walked towards me. I flinched when she suddenly hugged me and buried her face in my chest. She was crying. A doctor came to us. Love Rein noticed him immediately, so she let go of the hug.“Are you Mrs. De Castro’s son?” t

    Caroline’s POVI woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. I opened my eyes and sat up. I turned off the alarm and searched for my phone inside my bag. I touched my head, it was a miracle that it didn't hurt that much. I saw ten missed calls from Dad and five missed calls from Alexander. I sat on the bed, exhausted, and started checking the countless messages from my family. From: DadI know you’re still mad at me. I want you to take a break for now. Don’t go to work today because you’re on a week-long leave. Anyway, your cousin Julia’s wedding is tomorrow, you might want to spend a week with them. Your cousins in Cebu miss you. They said you haven’t noticed them on your social media even when you’re online, so they called me yesterday.I sighed before replying “OK” to Dad. It was a good thing he thought about my well-being if they would force me to work today. I’ll just attend my cousin’s wedding instead of moping around in my condo. I’m close to my cousins on Dad’s side. I would feel

    When I entered the room, I dialed Miguel's number again. I sat on the swivel chair and looked at my reflection in the large mirror."Hello?"I stood up when he answered my call. I took a deep breath before speaking."Yes, Miguel? Where are you now? I've been looking for you for a while but you're not here at the condo," I pretended to ask. I sat back down on the swivel chair."I'm at the hospital now. If you want me to do something, just tell Jay. I might not be able to come back right away. I need to watch over Mama.""Which hospital did you take her to? I'll go see you there. After all, I don't have work all week because Daddy wants me to take a leave of absence.""I'm here at the hospital where Michelle is confined. Don't come here anymore. Just rest for now," he replied coldly. It felt like he had poured a bucket of yellow water on me."Are you mad at me? Sorry about last night. I'm drunk and I don't know what -""It's okay. I'm not angry. I'll hang up if you don't need me. I'll t

    I wiped my face and looked away from him. I tried to hold back my tears but they wouldn’t stop falling. He opened the door and got in. He sat in the passenger seat while his gaze was on me.“D-Do you need something?” I asked.“Am I the one you’re asking like that?” he asked in his cold voice.“I just want to apologize for whatever I did and said to you last night. That’s it.” I smiled.“Is that all?”I nodded. “Yes, Miguel.” I picked up my phone when someone suddenly called me. I quickly turned it off when I saw Mommy’s name. “Why are you here? You’re watching over your mother, right?” I asked him.“Why are you crying?” he asked.I swallowed, fumbling for an answer to him. “Why are you asking? Do you even bother me every time I cry?”“Yes, Caroline. I’m concerned about why you’re crying. I care for you. You know that.”I smirked. “You care for me? Even for Love Rein?”“What? Why did Love Rein join our conversation?”“You said you like me. That’s why you’re flirting because you like me

    I held the steering wheel of the car while looking out the window. I wanted to cry again after admitting to him that I also had feelings for Miguel. I was so embarrassed. He thought I had rejected him, but now I was admitting to him face to face that I liked him."I have to go," I said to break the silence. You can get out if you want. I've said everything I wanted to say. I don't care if you laugh at me because I admitted that I liked you."“Do you mean it?" he asked.I didn't know if I should be happy with his question or be shocked. He was hard to talk to. It took him a while to understand what I was saying. I pulled his collar and pressed a kiss to his lips."Yes, Miguel," I whispered after I kissed him."Does it mean -"I kissed him again. "Stop courting me. You're my boyfriend starting today.""The real one?" he clarified.I nodded. "You don't want to?""No, no. I like it. I'm just ... speechless.

    I looked at Alexander’s parents who were stopping their son from hitting Miguel when he saw me.“You’ve never contributed anything good to this family!” Cecile was furious. She stood up and walked towards me. “You’re nothing but a disgrace! You’re even embarrassing Alexander’s family!”“Shut up, Cecile!” Daddy folded his hands. He couldn’t look at me because his eyes were on Miguel. “It’s not right if we scold your sister. We need to calm down and listen to her complaints about the news circulating in the media that she and Miguel are in a relationship!”“If I’m flirty, this kid outside is even flirtier!” Cecile stormed back to her seat next to Mommy.Cristy gave me my own chair and placed it in front of me. I carefully put down my bag before looking at them. I closed my eyes for a few seconds after glancing at Miguel.“Miguel has already told us about you, hija. We also want to hear from you if there is any truth to all the things he confessed to us.” Daddy’s voice calmed down.I was

    I was frozen in my seat. I couldn't move. I didn't know how to react."Caroline Anastasia Brooks is dating his bodyguard," Violeta repeated while showing me her phone."W-What does this mean, Caroline?" Julia asked while her eyes were on Violeta's phone. "You were on the news, but they didn't put a picture of your so-called bodyguard.""T-That's not true. I'm not dating my bodyguard," I defended. I stood up to check the news they were saying about me. "Where did this news come from? And who is spreading false information?"I bit my lip so hard when I remembered Miguel. I had no plans to deny our relationship but I couldn't help but worry for him when I also remembered what Miguel said last night. I don't want his life to be in danger just because of me. For now, I'll try my best to keep our relationship. It was too early for the public to know about us.I looked at my phone when a series of messages arrived. My heart beat faster when I saw Daddy's name calling me on the screen. Everyo

    I was locked in my room all day. My other cousins always teased me to go out and play with them because the sunlight wasn't so painful. I just watched them while they happily played in the sea."Caroline, give me a break. I'm getting married and you don't want to play with us," Julia said as she entered my room."I want to rest first. I'll come out later," I said as I adjusted my clothes."Promise? I'll be mad at you if you don't come out."I smiled and nodded. "Promise."I lay down on the bed when Julia left my room. Honestly, I've been too lazy to go out and hang out with my cousins ever since I found out I was an illegitimate child. I was afraid of what they might say when they found out the truth.I downloaded video games on my phone to keep me busy. It wasn't long before I got bored of playing games. I watched shows and other trending videos on the internet.I looked at my phone when its screen lit up. I looked to see who had texted me, and I smiled when I saw Miguel's name.From

    I turned around and saw Julia walking towards me. She was sipping her coffee.“Are you okay? Is there a problem? I’ve noticed you’ve been quiet for a while.” She put the glass of coffee on the table.I smiled and shook my head. “I’m just tired from the trip,” I excused myself. She raised an eyebrow at me. “I don’t have a problem, Jul. I’m just really tired.”To be honest, I didn’t sleep well last night after Mommy called. I don’t know why she called and asked for forgiveness for everything she did to me. It was the first time I heard the word sorry from her.“How are you? I haven’t heard from you. Aunt Glenda said you were busy with your company. You didn’t tell us that Alexander is your boyfriend.” She sipped her coffee again. “I thought you didn’t like that guy. You know, his life background is ugly.”“I had no choice, Jul. I wasn’t the one who decided to answer Alexander either.”“W-Wait, wait. You didn’t accept that man?”I nodded. “That was her decision. And worst, she even went

    I stood up and picked up my bag from the floor. I carefully placed it on the small table."What if I'm an illegitimate child? I'm grateful that I found out the truth." I adjusted my clothes. "Wow! You're different." Cecile clapped her hands. "You must be so proud when you found out that you were the child of Daddy's mistress," she added.My fists clenched. I wanted to tug at her hair but I just held myself back. I needed to calm down because I owned the condo."Jay, let my sister out," I ordered. I looked at Jay and noticed that she wasn't moving from where she was standing. "Are you going to let her out or do you want to lose your job?" I threatened."Hey, Caroline! You can't let me out because I own this too!" Cecile shouted angrily when Jay grabbed her."Caroline, are you that angry with Cecile? She wants to stay here for one night -""Don't get involved in this, Alexander!" I shouted angrily.Alexander frowned. "Don't talk to me like that. Maybe you forgot that your family's comp

    "I'm just thinking about your well-being, Miguel. I'm your friend. It's not that I'm interested in your relationship. But it's wrong for you to love your boss's daughter!"I wanted to scold Love Rein but not a single word came out of my mouth. I let go of Miguel's hand and faced him."Isn't what you're doing now a nuisance, Love Rein? Why was it such a big deal when you discovered our relationship? I know you don't like me. I'm not blind enough to not notice the way your eyes dart around whenever you see me.""Think about it, Caroline! You're putting my friend's life in danger. You're ruining his life!" Love Rein hissed at me."She's not ruining my life!" Miguel shouted.We both looked at Miguel. His jaw tightened and he looked straight at Love Rein."She's not ruining my life, Love Rein," he repeated in a calm voice. "If you have nothing else to say, it's best to just go home."Love Rein sighed. "You're going to take me home? You'd choose that girl over me?""Yes. I will choose her o

    "Stop it, Miguel!" I whispered to him while looking away.He took my hand and kissed it. I looked around in case anyone had seen us and recognized me. I breathed a sigh of relief when I noticed that there were only a few people eating and they were only looking at their food.It wasn't long before I finished eating. I just ignored his lingering stares at me. This was nothing new to me, but it felt like something new to me. Is it because we both have feelings for each other?"You seem to be thinking deeply," Miguel suddenly asked as we walked towards his Mom's room."Nothing. I'm just happy," I said. I wrapped one of my arms around his waist and leaned my head on his shoulder."Is there a problem?" Miguel asked.I stopped walking. "I might be gone for a week. My cousin's wedding. I'm going to Cebu. Daddy gave me a one-week vacation. It's a shame because I can't be with you. Your family needs you here.""When are you going to Cebu?""Tomorrow morning. Don't worry. We have body guards th
