One Night Mistake (English) ONM: Chapter 6
“Omg! really?! Your so-called boyfie seems fascinated by your beauty, girl! That's why he followed you even here in Bulacan. Take note, he knows your number and knows that you came here. You know, girl, this is your love life, push it!” I rolled my eyes at my exaggerated best friend's comments. Earlier, after lunch with Xander, he dropped me off in front of our house. I didn't bother inviting him inside; I wasn't ready to introduce him to my family yet! Just as I arrived home, Penelope showed up. And here I am, telling her what happened. “I asked him how he knew everything, and he just said, 'I have my ways.' But I feel like he's a good guy. Look, one night stand should have been each to his own, but look, he didn't leave me in the VIP room at the bar, he even prepared breakfast for me and brought me home. Then he mentioned some responsibility towards me, even though he has no obligation to me. And earlier, I saw how he values their workers, so I told myself I should giv

We organized our things before changing into bikinis. I wore a red bikini with my cover-up, let my hair down, applied lip tint to avoid looking too plain, and grabbed my sunglasses before leaving the restroom. Just as Penelope finished changing, she appeared wearing a black bikini with a cover-up, her hair styled in a messy bun. As she glanced in my direction, she observed my entire look. Nervous, I waited for her judgment; she always does this. “Is it okay? Does this swimsuit suit me?” I asked nervously, raising an eyebrow. “Seriously, girl, are you really asking that? Almost everything you wear looks good on you. You're so beautiful and hot, with a perfect body. I wish I had perfect boobs like yours! So jealous,” she remarked. Unconsciously, I looked down to check my chest. Many have complimented my body and boobs. “Enough of that. Let's go!” She pulled me out, carrying her phone and DSLR. She really likes taking pictures—one of her hobbies. Upon descending, a bea

NEXT DAY… I woke up early with excitement, I sent a text to Mom and Dad, updated them so they wouldn't worry. Also messaged Xander as promised, though no replies yet – maybe they're busy or still asleep. I put my phone down to pick out for today's outfit, I chose a blue bikini and denim shorts. Headed to the bathroom for a quick wash, toothbrushing, and a change of clothes. No need for a full shower since Penelope and I will get wet later. Speaking of Penelope, where is she? She said she'd be right back after going out for a bit. We decided on an island-hopping adventure today and picked a package tour last night. includes snorkeling, Kawa bath, paddleboarding, and a Disco boat. Tomorrow, we'll tackle package two with Jet Ski, Flyboard, banana boat, flying fish, and kayaking. Penelope has a visitor coming, so she wants to save some activities for tomorrow. I asked her who it was, but she responded with a sly grin. Well, it's fine, Xander will join us too, just wondering w

Vivien When Xander and Chad returned, we walked together towards the kwek-kwek stall, and I was startled when Xander held my hand. Even though I felt awkward, I glanced up at him. “Why didn't you even text that you're coming now?” He lowered his gaze and smiled cautiously. Finally, he smiled; he had been serious earlier. “I wanted to surprise you. And I'm glad you followed what I told you not to wear a bikini; it's much better that you're wearing shorts and a crop top.” I winced; if only he knew I was wearing a bikini earlier. It's a good thing I decided to wear a crop top and shorts over my white bikini now. I felt guilty. I stayed silent as we arrived in front of the stall, letting go of Xander. I happily scanned what else they were selling. They had almost all types of street foods, including chicken skin, which made my mouth water. Smiling, I took two large plastic cups and handed one to Xander, who promptly accepted it. I grabbed the tong hanging there and placed five

“Let's go, let's rent a jet ski.” I smiled and nodded at Xander, holding onto his arm. I was feeling better and had rested. We rented a jet ski, and they handed us life vests. I was about to grab mine when Xander took it and seriously helped me put it on. I tried to hold back my smile because he'd been taking care of me all day. He was the first to get on the jet ski, then he helped me get on as well. He even placed my hands on his waist. “Hold tight,” he said, and I followed his instruction. I screamed at first when he suddenly sped up the jet ski, and I lightly hit him because of it. He chuckled softly at my reaction. We went around and around, and when he got tired, he turned to me and asked with a smile, “Want to try?” Like a kid, I nodded eagerly because I really wanted to try. We switched places, and now he was sitting behind me. When he wrapped his arms around my waist, it felt like an electric current ran through my body. Damn, what was that? Tsk, never mind. I composed

Vivien Our vacation is over, back to reality now. Today, we're heading back to Manila. Time flew by so quickly, and our vacation is already over. In the remaining days we had with Xander and Chad, we made sure to finish the package activities. It would have been a waste not to, considering what Penelope and I paid. Chad and Penelope are doing well now; they've cleared things up between them. Now, Chad is officially courting my friend, and finally, they'll have a proper label. And as for the night Xander stayed in our room, I'm glad he was a good boy. We just ate and chatted on the terrace, then slept next to each other. I appreciated that because he probably sensed that I felt a bit awkward. During the few days I spent with Xander, I got to know him a little better. Now that we're heading back to Manila, we'll both be busy, and we’ll rarely see each other, which is fine by me so that we don't get tired of each other. Penelope and I are on the road now. Since Chad brought a car

I was looking at condos to avoid the hassle of traveling and for any sudden shoots. If I were coming from home, I'd always be stuck in traffic, and I really don’t like being late for work. I was hoping for a place at Sandoval Condominium since Penelope owns it, and a friend of mine also has a condo there. I don’t need a large condo—just two rooms would be enough so Penelope would have a place to sleep when she visits. Actually, my parents and brother don’t know about this yet. But I need to be close to the agency, and they’ll understand. I’ve saved up a lot, including money I received for birthdays, Christmas, New Year, my allowance while studying, from modeling, being an ambassador, and my debut. I’m not a lavish person; I saved all the money my parents gave me, so I can afford to buy a condo and my own car. I don’t want to keep borrowing my brother’s car, even though he’s fine with it. I want to have my own. It’s also a good thing I wasn’t costly before, so I can now buy my ow

While going down the stairs, I furrowed my brows when I noticed Daddy by the front door. He was facing away from me, talking on the phone. I watched him. Did he just get home? What time is it? How long was their meeting? And who is he talking to at this hour? He’s been coming home late a lot lately. It seems like Daddy is working himself too hard. As far as I know, Kuya Vince is the one managing the company now, so Daddy could be resting and visiting us more.I quickly went down the stairs and headed towards him. Daddy's voice was too low. Who is he talking to? I stopped not far from where he was, and he looked really stressed.“Vanessa, I have documents to take care of at the office tomorrow. Yes, I know, Vince will be with me when we go to the site. Yes, of course, tell Loraine that if I have some free time, I'll take her to the site. You know that it’s not just—” “Dad.” I called softly, and he immediately turned to me, clearly surprised. His face went pale as if he had seen

One Night Mistake (English) EPILOGUE
Vivien’s POVIt’s been three days, and I’m still here at the hospital recovering. I never imagined something like what Loraine did would happen in my life. It felt like one of those dramatic scenes you only see on TV—but this time, it happened to me.Because of what she did, our family became the talk of the town. We trended on all social media platforms—even on the news. Xander and the others got dragged into it too, but thankfully it was handled quickly. My boss even gave me a one-month leave because of what happened.Loraine is confined in the same hospital. She’s stable now but still needs to rest, or her side wound might open up again. That’s where Xander shot her.Apparently, Loraine had locked up Vanessa and Dad in their home, which is why they didn’t know what was happening. They were shocked when they found out. Grandma was furious at Vanessa because of the trouble her daughter caused. We later found out that Loraine does, in fact, have mental health issues. That’s why Vane

She let out a demonic laugh before turning to look at me.“You really are such an idiot, you know that? Did you really think I’d let you leave here alive? Didn’t it ever occur to you that the reason I made you come with Alex was so I could finally kill you? To get rid of the obstacle standing in my way!?”She shouted in anger, her eyes wild and blazing.“Loraine, this wasn’t our deal! You said you’d return Alexis to Dawn and I would go with you! What is this?!” Xander shouted back, equally furious.Loraine turned sharply toward him.“Shut up, Alex! I’m not stupid. I need to make sure nothing stands in the way of our love! Vivien has to disappear from this world!”I instinctively stepped back as she angrily pointed the gun at me.“All my life, Vivien, all I’ve ever wanted was to be loved. But why?! Why is it that everyone I want to love me always chooses you?! Dad? I had to ruin your image to him, I had to pretend just to get his attention!...“..Then Alex? No matter what I did, he st

An abandoned warehouse near the train tracks in Alabang was the location Loraine sent the address. She said we would all meet there at three in the morning.Xander's relatives didn't agree to do nothing. Luckily, one of Xander's cousins was there and hacked the CCTV so we could talk in a private room. The others stayed in the large living room so Loraine wouldn’t suspect anything. Some of Xander’s uncles secretly coordinated with the police. They still had the police go straight to the mansion, but others were positioned at every corner, dressed in civilian clothes so they wouldn’t be noticed.Xander and I decided that only the two of us would go. We wore invisible micro Bluetooth earpieces given by Xander’s cousin so they could hear our conversation, and also GPS trackers so we could be located if anything wrong happened. We still had backup, but Loraine’s people wouldn’t notice them. We wouldn’t go into a battle unarmed. We knew Loraine — that woman is cunning.Earlier, Xander’s co

AFTER AN HOUR had passed, some of the family members slowly began returning, all with the same answer—Alexis wasn't there. Even the maid hadn’t seen my son.Weakly, I sat down as my hands trembled and tears began to fall from my eyes. My baby… where are you?Almost everyone was back except for Alec and Xander. A few moments later, we all stood up at once when we saw Xander running toward us. My eyes widened when I saw what he was holding! My knees almost gave out as I rushed to meet them.Without thinking, I took Alexis’ iPad from Xander’s hand. When I looked at it, I gasped—it was shattered and had traces of blood on it! That was when the tears I had been holding back finally burst free.“Oh God! Where is my son?!” I couldn’t stop myself from breaking down. Xander pulled me into a hug as I sobbed uncontrollably. My gut was right—Alexis was missing!“Alec, where did you find Alexis' iPad?” Kuya asked seriously.“Alex found it in our backyard, near the back gate,” Alec answered firm

Xander took care of my food, while Grandma handled Alexis’ meal. She said she’s the one assigned to him tonight. Before eating, I glanced over at Mommy, and she gave me an understanding smile and nodded. Kuya (big brother) did the same.I ate quietly because I was already really hungry. It was getting late after all, so I was definitely feeling it.After the meal, Grandma gave a speech for her business partners. She even called Mommy and Kuya up on stage to introduce them to everyone. I was shocked by an unexpected announcement from Kuya.He said that once Xander and I are married, Herrera Furniture and Manufacturing Corp. would be merged with the Montenegro Empire. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, just staring at Kuya earlier.He just smiled and nodded at me. I knew I had a part in the company, but I never tried to take it from him because I always wanted him to run it. Helping him was enough for me. But it seems like there was nothing I could do now, as he and Grandma had alre

Grandma immediately welcomed us when she saw Xander and me. Xander quickly took her hand to show respect, while I gave a slight bow and also did the traditional gesture. She then looked me over from head to toe. “You are so beautiful, dear. The dress I chose suits you well.” I smiled shyly. “Thank you, Grandma. You look beautiful too in your dress.” The old woman smiled modestly. I meant what I said—even in her age, her beauty was still very much evident. “Thank you, dear. Let’s go to our table.” “La, why did you only compliment my fiancée? I’m your grandson, and you didn’t even glance at me. All your attention is on her,” Xander said in a fake sulking tone. Grandma looked at him from head to toe, then scoffed. Xander was left speechless, and I couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh. “You still look the same. Nothing’s changed. Your son’s more handsome than you.”Grandma said in a teasing, almost grumpy tone. Looks like she was messing with her grandson. Anyway, where’s my b

THE NEXT DAY I didn’t go to the company because my brother didn’t allow me, even though our engagement party started at six in the evening. He said I should just relax and rest for the day.I had no choice but to be absent, even from the agency. Annie is coming later anyway because I invited her.When I woke up earlier, everyone was already busy. Manang Fe was sorting through the outfits Mom had sent over, while I didn’t catch Alexis—turns out her grandma had picked her up since they were the ones assisting the team at the mansion and with the catering. The grandma and grandson were really enjoying their role.As for Xander, he quickly stopped by the Montenegro Empire because he had an important meeting he had to attend. Lucky him—he was allowed to go to the company, while I wasn’t.So basically, I was the only one doing nothing. I sighed and sat on the single sofa. I felt more idle than a bride on her wedding day—they wouldn’t even let me help out or go to the office.What am I su

While everyone was busy and Xander was talking to Alexis, I noticed Alec quietly standing off to the side, sipping wine. He’d been there all along, but he hadn’t approached me or even congratulated his cousin. When he noticed me walking toward him, he straightened up.He gave me a cold look.“What are you doing here? Why aren’t you joining the fun?” I asked gently, even though his intense stare made me uncomfortable.“I’m okay here.” He replied seriously, taking another sip from his wine glass.“Come on, join us. You being here like that makes it seem like you didn’t even want to come.” I nudged him a little. He clicked his tongue in irritation before setting his wine glass down and reaching into his coat.I just watched as he pulled out a long red box and handed it to me.“Here.”I looked at the box curiously, then at him, but his expression turned sour.“Tsk. Just accept it,” He snapped gruffly. I still hadn’t taken it.“For what? What’s this for?” I asked, confused. He grab

“My Dawn... My Baby... Will you marry me?”I covered my mouth, and the tears I had been holding back finally began to fall as I stared at the man kneeling in front of me.Is this really happening? Is he proposing to me? This isn’t a dream, right? My heart was pounding like crazy. The intensity of the way he was looking at me only made it beat faster. “Baby, we’ve been through so much—maybe it’s time for us to finally be happy and build our family. I’m not a perfect man, but I promise to love you and Alexis more than my own life. We'll make up for the time that was stolen from us. I hope your answer is a sweet ‘yes.’ I love you, Dawn. Please marry me…”His eyes pleaded with mine. I just stared at him, tears still falling. He’s right—it is time for us to be happy. It seems like Loraine is doing okay now, and they’ve accepted everything. This is a new beginning for us.Slowly, I nodded while still crying. His face lit up, but he didn’t stand yet. “Say it, please... Baby, say the m
