Finally, Foundation Day has come. Everyone is occupied getting ready for the event's opening day. The booths, flea markets, and stages for the performances, dining establishments, and amusement parks must all be set up in one day. They have the entire morning to set things up before the event's official opening at six o'clock in the evening.
Ella was busy installing the signage to direct guests to the location of the floating restaurants while Edward had already engaged the contractor to set them up. While others were busy gathering the ingredients they would need for the dishes, others of their staff were busy writing out the menu and flyers with maps of their locations to provide to the guests. Joaquin got in touch with some of his pals in the entertainment business to perform a concert on their opening night.
Everything is going according to plan. They make sure that the dishes have a high-quality taste and presentation but are stil
The last day of the competition has come. The one who will be announced in the number one spot will be declared the winner of the competition. Everyone in the lower tiers has to step up and improve their strategy so that they will not be booted from the game's top ten list.Not only are they squabbling over the prize money, but also their family name. It will be extremely embarrassing for them and will negatively affect their future business careers if it shows in the school record that they did not excel in their extracurricular activities.Ella called Joaquin and requested his assistance. She may not want to ask Joaquin for help, but she is desperate anddetermined to win the competition, no matter what it takes.Joaquin welcomed Ella happily, "My lovely little bundle of joy, I feared you'd forgotten about me." "Did I miss you?" he asked her inquisitively. "Is that the reason you called me?" He attempted to give h
"Ella, wake up!"Lucas said it louder than before. Ella hasn't moved a muscle despite his attempts to wake her up for several minutes. To let the sunshine shine on her face, he chose to open the curtains on her window. Ella woke up gradually when she felt the sun's heat on her cheeks.She wakes up feeling slightly sluggish, exhausted, foggy-headed, and anxious, as though a balloon is slowly inflating under her skull and pressure is rising all over her head.She asked him in a raspy voice, "What time is it?""Should you be in college by now? It's late." Lucas questioned her while arching his brow.When Ella realized she had to leave for her classes, she got out of bed right away and hurried to her closet."Ella, what's going on with you? You had bruises on your face when you got home last week. Then, last night, Edward drove you home while intoxicated and unco
All of the graduating students go on a school field trip each semester. It is part of their curriculum to learn about and experience the outside world. The purpose of the trip was to learn while having fun. The university changes the location of the school trip every year. Last year, they went camping in the virgin forest to discover and research various wild animals and trees. The university had intended to send the students to the island this year so they could demonstrate their survival skills.They will receive the essential tools and gear for camping. They are not permitted to bring any electronics, gadgets,or cell phones. They are always safe since a lighthouse tower with guards is keeping watch over them. There is a transmission radio in the tower in case of an emergency, but they are not allowed to interfere with student activities unless it is a life-threatening emergency.A companion must be assigned to them before they board
"Edward, stop. Don't do it." Joaquin grabbed his arms and dragged him away from Luis. "Everyone is staring at you. Do not cause a scene, please," he reminded his friend.Edward yelled angrily, "He did it. I know he did it!" His voice is trembling in rage. "He is the reason why Ella is missing." He is pointing at Luis with his index finger.Luis laughed and said, "Tick, tock, the clock is ticking, and in a few hours there will be a high tide," Luis reminded them.Edward felt a flash of irritation when he heard Luis' mockery. He wanted to rip him apart because he knew that Luis did something bad to Ella, and he wanted to get his confession."Where is she?" he yelled at him. "What did you do to her?" Edward questioned him repeatedly.Luis left a cryptic message rather than responding to Edward's questions. "Can your girlfriend swim well?" He made a mischievous grin.
The sun's heat was on Edward's face when he awoke. He covered his eyes with his hands so he could view the weather outside the cave and noticed the sun blazing brightly in the clear, blue sky. It was a clear, sunny day. The sky was a pure, brilliant blue, with white cotton candy clouds drifting through it.Edward was about to get up, but he saw Ella's arm wrapped around his waist. Later, he returned and lay down. She was sleeping as he cast a glance ather face. Even though she is sleeping, he finds it amusing to watch her. When she is sleeping, she appears to be a whole different person, as though she is nicer and more refined than when she is awake. Ella is somewhat rude and boyish.After some time, he sensed Ella waking up gradually and moving. He became anxious and was afraid that she might feel awkward if he was seen watching her. When Ella awoke, Edward pretended to be sleeping. She puts on her goggles while moving gently to
"Edward, I need to tell you something," Ella stated earnestly but with hesitation in her voice. She bit on her bottom lips while tucking her hair behind her ears. "I'm sorry for taking too long to confess to you that I am your..."Ella was ready to say what she had been wanting to say for days when her brother Lucas abruptly barged into the room and cut her off.He searched Ella's room, wondering who she was talking to, and asked her, "Who are you talking to?"Ella was startled to see her brother. "No one," she hastily answered. "I was working on my speech for my English subject," she said as an excuse.Ella has been rehearsing her line in front of the mirror about what she is going to say to Edward when she returns the necklace. She's been trying to tell him so many times that she is the long-lost friend he's been looking for, but she couldn't find the right moment due to unavoidable circumstances.
Ella couldn't help but smile as she gazed at the stunning red gown Edward had given her. She had never had new clothes or owned anything new since she was a child. Everything she owns is secondhand or passed down. She gently took the gown from the box and draped it over her while looking at the shop's mirror wall.Ella begins to swirl and dance gracefully around, carrying the gown in a rich, deep crimson shade that brims with a fiery passion. Her eyes sparkled with delight, and her pearly white teeth gleamed as she smiled while watching herself dance in the mirror."Why don't you give it a try girl?" Bruce proposed it to her."Go, girl. I'm curious to see how it looks on you "Salome exclaimed with glee. Salome suddenly remembered: "No wonder Edward was asking for your body measurement the other day. I had no idea he was planning to surprise you with a gown as a gift."Ella dashed to the stockroom to
"Slow down," she said, forcing her lips to part from his."Come on, this isn't the time to play hard to get," he said to her, brushing his lips down to her neck. "I've never made you do anything against your will."He slips his hands down her breast, giving it a gentle squeeze and pinching, sending her wild tremors along her nerves and making her arch her hips towards him. She can feel his bulk rubbing against her body."Joaquin, please be gentle," she says softly, letting out a gentle moan.Joaquin didn't listen to her plea; he wanted it rough and hard. He placed her hands over his neck and pulled her up, wrapping her legs around his waist. He carried her over to the table and undressed her. He began unbuttoning her blouse, lifting her skirt above her thigh, pulling down her underwear, and tossing it on the ground."We only have fifteen minutes; let's make the most of it," he to
