072 | At Liam's Office

2021-08-10 15:53:05Diane’s P.O.V.
But, why all of a sudden? He could always ask for a soft copy via email. Why would he even ask me to go to his office? Hmm, right! Because the investors’ meeting was always held here every third week of the month. Oh, it makes sense why Lorenz was here too!
Anyway, if it wasn’t for the investors’ meeting… maybe, Liam just missed me right away, and he just wanted to see me again! Or, he might have another surprise for me? Oh my God, I am so excited!
I radiantly smiled and was slightly shaken by what I thought. The butterflies in my stomach began to fly too. This would be my first time to reach the twenty-second floor and I might be going to present in front of the investors. When the elevator door opened, I couldn’t get more exhilarated. I was looking forward again to see him that I even bounced at my every step.

Diane’s P.O.V.Then, Leandro scoffed. “You two were impossible! See the effect of answering him in just two days? You don’t even know him. And you’re going steady with how many months for now? Seven months? You’re kidding me!” He was clearly insulting me, and that made me want to be swallowed by the ground.Why am I being stupid in front of Leandro? Damn him!Now I realized that I didn’t even know Liam’s exact office because I was seriously working here. Liam and I rarely saw each other here in EGC. We used to chat, but because of my request of keeping our relationship here a secret, we never shared our lunch.Liam would just ask someone to deliver me something in the office, may it be flowers, chocolates, or food, under his codename, Mr. Handsome. Then, my workmates would just scream on top of their lungs while teasing me who

Leandro’s P.O.V.Seeing how Diane was still gorgeous after months of being away from her already made my day. Although she hurt my feelings again, it was fine. She was still a beauty as she had always been. Although she was a forbidden fruit that was already owned by my brother, I wouldn’t care at all. I would do everything to finally get her.Jealous of Liam, I couldn’t help myself but think of how Diane used to satisfy him in bed. I couldn’t stop asking myself if they were already doing it, and that was what made me crazy.Diane had gotten more voluptuous curves since the last time I saw her, and that filled my sexual fantasies even more. If we were not just here, I could have ripped up her clothes. But seeing my brother storming off here just ruined our supposedly perfect moment together!Why does Liam always have to be at the wrong time? Damn him!

Leandro’s P.O.V.“Daya—nara. Yeah, it was a certain Dayanara. Dayanara Clariz, to be exact—” Steve intoxicatedly confirmed before he finally slept in front of me. I wanted him to spill the beans, but I didn’t know that he would drop a grenade instead.Wait, what! Did I hear it right? Did he really say Diane’s real name? Was it clearly Dayanara Clariz or my ears were just fooling me?“Bro, wake up! Damn it, hey!” I almost pleaded. I tried to slap Steve’s face hard enough to wake him up, but he was really drunk. If only I could punch his face here, I would have done that. But I had no other choice but to let go of him now because it looked like he was drowned in a stupor and would never wake up.“Holy crap!” My whole body was trembling right now. Suddenly, I became weak while ho

Liam’s P.O.V.Damn you, Leandro!How did he know about what happened four years ago? Did he and Steve accidentally meet in the States? Shit!Narrowing my eyes due to frozen anger, I should have never let Leandro come into the picture again. He could do whatever he could, but that would never scare me. I would never let him manipulate my feelings for Diane. I wouldn’t let him control my life, and I would never give in to his fucking demands no matter what.Damn it!I was breathing heavily because I was preventing myself from getting even with him. I would never stoop down his level. All my life, I was taught to be sanguine and was raised to hold my rage. Fighting with him last year was already enough. Our parents would not be happy if they would see us attacking each other, especially Mom.Yes, Leandro was right. D

Liam’s P.O.V.We were already inside the elevator, but it seemed like the silence trailed us here. I wasn’t speaking, and neither Diane, but I could see from the corner of my left eye that she was glancing at me from time to time.But could I blame myself for feeling like this? Diane was the one who wanted not to let people here know what was going on between the two of us, despite the fact that I wanted to shout to the whole world that she had already been my girlfriend. I wanted to brag about her, but even before I could start doing it, she already requested to keep our relationship a secret.And could I blame other men with their possible motives? They were just men who couldn’t stop themselves from liking women. Knowing Diane’s pretense to be single, it was likely that someone else would court her. It was a good thing that they were all women in Finance Department, but I shoul

Liam’s P.O.V.“Oh my God, Liam! I didn’t know you were this kind of jealous, huh? It’s nothing! It was actually Lorenz, remember him? He’s our gay best friend, and I just found out earlier that he was indeed a real man. I couldn’t believe it. I was so shocked!” Diane’s eyes rounded more and her lips ideally curved while she was telling her side of the story.Yeah, right! So, I guessed I got jealous over nothing.Not taking my eyes off her, I nodded. “I remembered Lorenz, and yeah, I knew that he had always been a straight guy. That’s why I wondered why he acted so soft and feminine when the three of you were together, especially when you interviewed me for your thesis defense months ago.”Then, I chuckled. “The poor guy was even wearing makeup! But wait, could it be that Lorenz liked you, that’s wh

Diane’s P.O.V.I didn’t know what kind of negative vibration had suddenly mauled over me. It paralyzed my whole body while looking at my boyfriend being kissed by someone else. I wanted to think reasonably, but my mind got suddenly clouded with different judgments I couldn’t help but contemplate at the moment.Even if I wanted to avert my eyes, I couldn’t do it. Even if I wanted to grab the hair and tweak this woman out of the elevator, I could not move even my fingers.It was as if I got stuck in my position, secretly hurting while looking at a nasty scene in front of me. I was hurt beyond what hurt means, and the pain already exploded within me. My legs felt shaky no matter how I was controlling them not to be. I was trying so hard to stand tall with my head held up high, but my head was feeling heavy, making me betray myself in the process.As if on cue, so

Diane’s P.O.V.It was so clear that I had to close my eyes. I needed this memory because I was sure that it was one of those that I forgot. I had an absolute strong feeling that it would make me understand what was happening around me right now…“Why? Are you a nurse, Diane?” Liam asked, but I couldn’t focus anymore because his dimple was so mesmerizing. It used to tingle my insides, and when he lightly kissed the tip of my nose, it felt so good.“No, and there was no way I could be a nurse. I just really liked to read sometimes, and of course, I also took a short First Aid training course. I am actually an Accountancy student,” I affirmed before swiftly removing myself underneath his body. It was kind of awkward for me that I might forever want to be attached to him.Being under Liam’s body was so electrifying, b
Sins of The Past 119 | The Consequence
Diane’s P.O.V.I hesitantly opened my mouth, afraid of my mother’s reaction once she would find out. But even before I could speak again, that Liam shamefacedly spoke in front of me, and I didn’t know why my heart pounded differently.Like me, his tears were flowing on his face unceasingly. And at some point, I could feel that his tears were real… and those were silently telling me to trust him.“Diane, please forgive me. Please… let’s start all over again and allow me to make up for everything. God knows I didn’t mean what happened, and if only I am sober that night, I would have never hurt you. I would have never ruined your life.”“Please listen to me. I was drugged by that time, and I didn’t even know how my friends got you. I commanded them to take you back to where they got you and not even lay a finger on you.

I missed you so much,’ huh? And he also called me Diane? Crap! Coming from a rapist like him, I would never accept that!After the heinous crime that he did to me? After he ruined my dignity? After he ravaged me for so many times while filling his deadly lust on top of my innocent body? Does he really have the face to show in front of me after he tore my life apart and shattered my dreams?He never knew what I went through after that brutal night. I became a distortion that was unable to find my way back to my family. My physical body was able to get home the next morning, but my soul didn’t. Each day was a battle within me, as I never
Sins of The Past 117 | Those Brown Eyes
Liam’s P.O.V.Although preoccupied, I cut my painful flashbacks when my cellular phone suddenly rang.“Hello?” I answered hastily with weary eyelids. I didn’t even get the chance to see who called and just answered my phone, thinking that it was the police officers and they already had an update regarding Leandro.“Hello, big bro? I know that you haven’t yet rested well, but this news can’t wait anymore. My sister was finally awake!” The voice from the other line was hinted with great anticipation, which was owned by none other than David—Diane’s teen brother.Depriving myself of sleep for two weeks now, I hadn’t yet slept since I came home this morning. My body was like it had been on a treadmill, wanting so much to press stop due to restlessness. But after hearing the great news concerning Diane, my muscles see

Liam’s P.O.V.“Don’t worry, big bro. My eldest sister had always been a fighter all her life, and who knows? She would soon open her eyes. Later, or tomorrow perhaps, I believed that she would wake up. Big sis would never leave us.” Denise tried to comfort me. Her nose was as red as a tomato due to her non-stop crying.She then hugged me, and I returned the same hug to ease her pain too. At these times, I didn’t know where I could get the additional courage to be strong.Actually, I admired Denise. At the age of three, she was deprived of a chance of having a real father to look up to, but she still remained bright and cheerful. She was like Diane, strong-willed, and I hoped that my fiancée would surpass the operation.That was when I saw how Shey and the rest of our company rushed in our direction. Apart fr

Liam’s P.O.V.“D-Diane, are you okay?” I knew she was not, and yet, I still asked her. My heart sank when she just smiled at me before her eyes heavily drifted, prompting her to lose consciousness.“No, Diane… o-open your eyes, please! Oh, God… please, don’t take her away from me.” My right hand softly held her cheeks. I touched some of her blood, and the pain was burning within me.‘Goddamn it!’It was all my fault. If I hadn’t rushed us to get married—if we hadn’t left tonight and just moved the flight tomorrow morning—this accident wouldn’t have happened at all.And one more thing—I should have checked the car first before using it. But I couldn’t help but wonder about how this happened.A
Sins of The Past 114 | His Angelic Face
Diane’s P.O.V.Had we been together for years? But how did we first meet, and how did he propose to me that he wanted us to get married? Did he do the traditional way of kneeling while holding the ring?Did he do it in front of my family? Did I say ‘yes’ easily? How romantic was it, and what did I exactly feel about it?So many questions began flooding my mind and speaking of his marriage proposal, I automatically looked at my hands. Then, I saw something that was marvelously shining on my left forefinger.It was a fabulous engagement ring. It was comprised of two rings in one, with the upper ring having a big diamond at its center.Wow! Just wow!I gasped for air while still couldn’t help myself but get completely amazed about how it looked. Words were not enough to precisely describe how I
Sins of The Past 113 | Who Is Liam?
Diane’s P.O.V.So, I forgot the last four years of my life? I lost the last four years of my memory? But how can I take them back? God, please! I need to get them back.Hopeless and left with no other choice, I just couldn’t help myself but shed tears again. I tried to remember what happened to me after that incident four years ago, but I couldn’t remember any further details, aside from my best friends, Karen and Lorenz.The latter was even a bit feminine, and that was all I knew. It was just unfortunate because when I woke up earlier, the two just went home. My mother told me that my best friends hardly left my hospital room. The two were even acting raucous in an attempt to wake me up as soon as possible.However, I didn’t know how to face them both because, at some point, they might look like strangers to me even though we were all best o
Sins of The Past 112 | Diane's Amnesia
Diane’s P.O.V. I opened my mouth, but no words came out of it. With how butterflies tingled my stomach from that memory, I could feel like my heart was exhilarating, pulses were racing, and everything was real. At the same time, I got frustrated—feeling unfulfilled. Did I have a boyfriend, and it just happened that my mind had forgotten him? But how? My mind naturally stirred back into the present, but my heart looked like it dwelled in the past. It was trying to pull my inner self to remain in my trance. It was a good memory and worth keeping safe in my heart, but I wanted to fully remember it back. “Diane?” The doctor called me, dragging me out of my reverie. “Yes, Doc. If I wasn’t mistaken, t-they are my best friends… Karen and Lorenz?” I told the doctor as I dismissed the mentioned guy from my recollection. I
