Larry sense the sincerity in Simon's voice. He excused himself to get something in his suite. He took another envelop in his closet. Jewel was still sleeping on his bed. He stayed for a few minutes and gazed at her sleeping face. "Here..." Larry threw the envelop at Simon. His agile enough to catch it and not hit him. Simon gave him a sharp look."What's this?" "Go ahead and look at it." With a furrowed brow Simon opens the envelop. He freezes and glared at Larry. "How did you even get this?" Simon clicked his tongue. Larry shrugged his shoulder. "I have my sources." "Is this the picture you showed to Jewel?" "No, I used the old one; Im trying not to use it as much as possible." "Why?" "That woman is important to me." "What?! Simon hissed. Larry swallowed his laughter. He did it on purpose, he wants to know Simon's reaction.

Simon was feeling ecstatic. The talked with Joane gave him confidence that everything will be alright and he just need to talk to Jewel. He can't wait to reach home. When he parked the car he saw his father waiting at the door. He approached him. "Hi dad!" "Your grandfather was waiting in the library." They both entered the home and walked side by side. Passing by the living room he saw all the other elders of the family. "Why is everyone here today?" Simon noticed his uncle Damian's sulking face. "Did uncle mess up something again." He lowered his voice making sure that his dad can only hear him yet he did not received any response from him. "Grandpa!" Simon greeted and gave him a gentle hug. "Sit down." Grandpa looked at Simon with pity thinking his grandson was unaware of the truth. "Why everyone's look so serious? It's not news anymore if uncle Damian created trouble after all. " Simon chuckled still unable to hide his good mood. "Your right but this time this invol
It’s their Graduation Ball. Everyone is having fun. This is the only time were all of the senior students of every department in their university can gather. Jewel was looking for Cherrie everywhere but no luck, she decided to go back in their assigned table. Shes walking slowly trying to alleviate the pain of the blisters on her heels, she accidentally bump on one of the student trying to walk pass through the dance floor, her sight turned in the east pathway and there she saw Cherrie. She apologizes before looking back in the east pathway. Now Cherrie is not alone, she's with her boyfriend Larry. From a distant Jewel knows they are arguing and she had an idea what is it all about. Earlier before she lost sight of Cherrie she saw her dancing with Frank Mason and based on her best friend stories Larry is very jealous with Frank. She sighed and return to her sit. After a while Cherrie is now heading in her direction.
After reading her dad's last reply she's not in a hurry to get home. She booked a room in a nearby hotel. She wants to make sure that Larry can rest comfortably she looked around the house to find his room. When she opens the first door it was a study. There's three more door, the other two is locked and the next one she opened is definitely he's room. She peeked inside; the color is a black and white monochrome. The only one that stands out is the green color of indoor plants that's in the corner. She leaves the door open and went back to the living room.She looked at Larry still figure in the sofa. The urge within her that wants to make her beloved to rest comfortably convinced her to move him in the room.She immediately held him up wrapped her arms to his waist and dragged him gently to his room. Her long gown is making it hard for her to walk. She let out a sigh of relief after she put him on the bed. She contemplat
Larry felt the hot rays of sunshine coming from the balcony. He can feel his morning wood touched a soft mound. He was a bit confused then a sudden realization hit him. He slept with a woman last night as he recognized the woman's face he felt a little guilty. She is his girlfriend's best friend. He totally lost it last night.His fully aware of what he did. He actually slept naked just to savor the warmth of her body. His lust gets the best of him. Considering he knows she's not his girl to mess. He suddenly senses a piercing stare. His eyes met a teary gazed."Cherrie...”"What's the meaning of this?"Jewel opened her eyes. She heard a familiar voice. The moment she raised her upper body the pain streamed al
At first Larry was so upset at falling to Jewel scheme to seduce and eventually ruined his relationship with Cherrie.He also thought that night it was only natural for him to crave a woman's body since he was dry for 2 yrs. Cherrie wants to keep her chastity for their wedding night. He respected her decision because he loved her. He firmly believes that Jewel used this chance to entice him.Cherrie's last words still lingered in his head. It's because he slept with her best friend that she won't take him back.He chuckled sarcastically now at the thought.This morning he received a message from one of his friend. He gritted his teeth as he looked at the message.Hey bro, I just heard the news today, did you really slept with Cherrie's bff? I went to Angolia Beach with my girlfriend so it sl
Jewel arrived home and went directly to her bathroom. She noticed a purplish bruised on her wrist and some other red marks on her body. She soaked in a warm bath. She smiled full of bitterness. How could Cherrie set her up like that? She really pushed her to the edge. She received a message from Cherrie explaining things and now she understood why Larry is angry. He was a fool for misunderstanding her. He planned on using her until his ego is satisfied. That’s not going to happen. She loves him but she's not someone who will cry and silently accept his torture. She is not a sort of heroin in the novel who can endure hardship and live happily ever after. She won’t stand by and wait until her love interest realized his mistakes. She's going to leave everything behind.She was offered to work abroad. Her dad's boss wanted her to work with Simon in his Branch office in Australia. After a warm bath she dialed her father's number to let hi
Larry's face was stoned cold. He called the number that the investigator gave him but Jewel did not answer his call. He knows that the message he sent was seen but there was no reply. His currently still in San Diego, he hired a professional to check on Jewel and report all details about her. Since he left West Country he was constantly reminded of her face. At first he thought he just like her at his bed but there's a big lump on his chest every time he remembered her crying face the last night he shared with her. She was warm and he was her first. He wants that woman only for himself. He totally forgot about Cherrie. Now looking at the pictures of these two, the most beautiful in his eyes is the smiling photo of Jewel.
Simon was feeling ecstatic. The talked with Joane gave him confidence that everything will be alright and he just need to talk to Jewel. He can't wait to reach home. When he parked the car he saw his father waiting at the door. He approached him. "Hi dad!" "Your grandfather was waiting in the library." They both entered the home and walked side by side.

Larry's lips curled up after he saw the picture sent by Robert Seymour. He was planning on using every possible way to get Jewel and now he just receives a very useful trump card. He doesn't want wasting time. He dialed Jewel's number right away. "What do you want?!" Jewel's irritated voice can't be hidden. It was painful but Larry strongly believes that he can open her heart to him once again. He just needs to endure her anger for now. "I need to talk to you tomorrow." Larry keeps his calm. "I don’t want to see or talk to you anymore. Leave me in peace will you! I’m hanging up..." She received Larry's call around 4 am she thought it was Simon since he didn’t come home. She did not even bother to look at the caller ID. She really wished she did not answer. Larry did not call again but instead he send Jewel a picture, the place and time he wants to meet the next day. Even if she didn’t reply he was sure that she will be there. When Jewel received a message from Larry she contempl
After Simon talked to Larry he was always in deep thoughts. Now he knows that Larry love Jewel and cared for her. As a friend he wants what’s best for Jewel but right now they were in a very compromising facade. The lie that’s been told was not easy to reverse and resolve. He’s not scared even if Larry released the information about him to the media what he cared the most is how will Jewel deal with the aftermath. “Where have you been?” Jewel asked when Simon enters their room. “You’re still up, are you waiting for me?” “Yes.” Jewel scrutinized his face. “I think… did you really forget?” “What?” Simon’s eyes widen when he come to realize that he was supposed to go with his grandfather to meet with the elders. “Is there any problem?” Jewel looks worried. “No, I just met an old friend that I totally forgot today's plan.” Simon scratches his chin. “Tsk…grandpa must be really upset. I’ll go and talk to him.” “Don’t worry Baby Liam’s was able to pacify grandpa.” Jewel wink. “How?”
Love is something we thought we can control. Just like we often heard a heart wants what it wants. The encounter with Larry yesterday opens up an old wound. He’s still as charming like he used to in her heart. Deep inside Jewel hopes that he will follow her, try to talk to her and maybe tell her that he loves her. That’s a mad thought she chuckled inwardly. From the start Larry just used her body like she was an easy girl to toy with and when the truth came out she was blamed and was used to relieve his anger and ruined ego. Before she gets out of the sea food restaurant she
"You have more money than I am. It’s unfair to you coz I can get more money from you than you are to me." Jewel called her dad to invite him for dinner in Hall's Mansion. They have to talk about the wedding details. She was still anxious about the future but everyone was expecting a wedding sooner or later. She reaches the point of no return unless Simon says that he no longer wants to marry her.
It has been a month since Jewel return to West Country. She mostly stayed at Hall's Mansion. She personally looks after her son. She was pampered by the household. Mrs. Hall requested that the baby sleep in their room once or twice which she gladly obliged. The first few days in the mansion, guilt was eating her away especially when she watch the people around her give so much love and affection towards her baby. Simon keep's reminding her that it's okay, she was doing him a favor and in the first place it's his own doing. He was the one who announced it without informing her. In the end she learned to accept the fact and the situation. She promised that she will return their graciousness a thousand fold.
He can't believe it, he was not aware that Simon and Jewel will be staying in West Country for good. He thought he got everything under control; he spent a lot of money just to rent the apartment next to their unit. This is the failure of his second plan to be near his beloved. This is all because of Jewel if she's not around. Simon will stay in Australia for a long time until he inherits the rights to manage the family business.
