One Night Mistake (English) ONM: Chapter 75
I dragged Xander along until we reached the front of the elevator. He remained silent while waiting for the elevator to open. I sighed before taking my phone out of my bag. I don’t think I’ll go to the office today. I’ll just text Mics and let her handle things for now. There aren’t any meetings scheduled anyway. Xander is tired. I want to take care of him. After texting Mics, I put my phone back in my bag and looked up. “Hey, you okay? Have you eaten?”I asked gently. He lifted his gaze and gave me a small smile. “Honestly, I haven't eaten since last night. I have no appetite. I miss you and Alexis. I can't leave because your dad doesn’t want to go home. He told me to stay and watch over Loraine. If you hadn’t come to me, I might still be there right now.” His voice was tired. He ran his fingers through his messy hair, let out a deep sigh, and spoke again. “She did it again. She tried to take her own life—just so I’d notice her and take her back. I'm tired of this, Daw

My brother is really something else. Unbelievable… Geez! How did we not notice? They’re really good at hiding things. “Oh my gosh! You’ve been together for almost a year? Why did you hide it from us?” I asked in shock. Mics just gave me an embarrassed smile. “I don’t know why your brother doesn’t want to tell all of you. It’s hard to keep it a secret, you know. I don’t get what’s up with him.”Oh, so it was my brilliant brother who decided to keep it from us, huh? “Argh! I can’t believe he hid it from us! And we didn’t even notice. I had no idea my brother had a talent for acting.”I slumped back in my chair, crossing my arms. I’m not okay—I got played by my own brother! “I’m sorry, Vivi. Honestly, I wanted to tell you, but he didn’t want me to. That’s something we argue about sometimes.” I could see in Mics' eyes that she was telling the truth. She wanted to admit it to me, but my brother ruined it. He probably didn’t want us teasing him. “It’s okay. If I hadn’t caug

Mics answered the call. “Hello, Love?”I grinned at the endearment he used for Mics. So cheesy! I signaled Mics to respond. “Yes, Love?”We heard my brother sigh on the other line. “I'm sorry for earlier, for our argument. I didn’t mean it, I was just tired… and I miss you… I miss you so much, and I just want to see you.” Mics blushed at what my brother said, while I was grinning like crazy but also feeling giddy! His voice was so tender! Is this really my brother talking? “Hey. Love. Still there? Why aren’t you answering? Are you still mad at me?”I signaled Mics not to say anything. She nodded. “Love? I’m sorry, okay? Wait, it’s already lunchtime—have you eaten? Where’s Vi?” “Love, talk to me, please?” “Don't be like this, Love. It won't make me feel better. I can’t work properly when we're like this. I'm sorry, don’t be mad at me. Okay, how about this? I'll pick you up later for dinner. I’ll make it up to you. And I miss you so, so much.” The redness on Mics’

“You are so beautiful, Ms. Vivien. I only did a simple makeup look on you, but your beauty truly stands out.” I gave a sweet smile to the makeup artist assigned to me today. She was just doing a quick touch-up on my makeup before I headed out onto the runway. Today is the fashion show where I was invited by a very famous designer. I actually just found that out now. I'm here with my supportive boyfriend. I know he's sitting in the VIP section along with the other guests. I took a deep breath before walking backstage. Once I saw that my fellow model had returned, I held my head high and strutted onto the runway. A loud cheer erupted as soon as I stepped out. All the photographers turned their attention to me, scrambling to take shots. But I paid them no mind. I focused on my walk, wanting to bring life to the outfit I was wearing. I gave it my best. My face remained serious as I walked, and when I reached the end of the runway, my eyes immediately searched for Xander. It didn’t

“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

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

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.

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

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
