Devu Pov...Kendra is the epitome of a wife material but she's not destined for me. When I first saw her my heart melts falling for her but cut short when the famous handsome Enrico trio in. It was just like a dream slowly snatch from me just when I woke up. I laughed remembering the day I felt butterflies and was just ruined by his damn gorgeous appearance. It was just like a movie scene. Their gestures and smiles were dynamic and perfect. Fuck! Devu stop hurting yourself. Yours will come soon and life starts at forty. I reminded myself laughing. I just finished my meeting whistling and dancing for my success when Diana barge into my office like she was my boss. My secretary Alison was astounded in disbelief looking at her. Diana walks chin up with a fierce look but doesn't work on me."Who do you think you are to come here?" I hissed annoyed at her. This is my territory, not Enrico's so she could just come in if she wanted to. "Devu, you know me well and I hate to repeat myself.
Enrico Pov...While I was busy bonding with Kendra unaware back in the Philippines Diana is disturbing my friends.After visiting her office and having some quick moments. I went back to my hotel and call her to come over after her work. I prepared a suit to wear before going out.I know I look like rushing things between us but I can't live away from her. I'm not young anymore and need to settle down and start my own family.Kendra changes my principles and wants something that I already leave behind. I'm looking forward to adventures and memories with her. That's how she whisk on me seeing hearts every time I see her. Nothing makes me sane and comfortable to be with her. I will make sure she will not run away from me.I check myself again before going down. I book a table for two at the restaurant of this hotel. Carrying the bouquet of flowers and the ring in my pocket. I'm whistling while walking out of the elevator anticipating the good vibes and her yes answer.It's already 6 in
Danny Pov...Seeing Sir Enrico approaching the office isn't surprising at all. I know back when we are in the Philippines they already sealed their relationship. Their stare and winks are different from when we arrived. Kendra used to be agitated, blushing, unorganized and speechless near him but before we could leave she was relaxed, glowing, and happy same with Enrico though he was back to being the scary type.I'm happy for her, she deserved the world after what happened to her. I'm curious and wanted to meet the man who makes her break into pieces and thankful to Enrico who mends her broken heart. Before I could close the door I saw them flirting in different ways as their relationship leveled up just for a month. Sharon is impatient pulling me out of her office."Danny, I told you Kendra is not the woman for you. Can you not grasp the reality?" She warned glaring at me when we are in her office."Then who could that be, you?" I replied annoyed at her. She always snaps at me. She
Diana Pov...I don't want to run here and leave Enrico but I have to. When I am thinking of heaven, hell is pouring like rain.Enrico breaking up with me for good and suddenly my past is haunting me. I thought running away was the best solution but I guess a mistake that I miscalculated. Doing what I please right now isn't working anymore. I need allies and smart thinking if I want to pass this again.I'm already far enough dragging my feet to my previous suite, unaware of what is waiting for me there. I stop at my favorite restaurant to eat before going to that suite. It's been five years yet misfortune keeps on chasing me. If I can't have Enrico with me then no one should have him. I regretted leaving and was blinded by my selfishness and greediness. "Diana, is that you?" Someone calls behind me. I halted and looked back. "Jane!" I uttered in disbelief. Am I seeing the real Jane? She was supposed to be dead! I looked at her stunned and speechless."Yes, I am! I'm glad you remembe
Enrico Pov...I expect that Kendra will really turn down me yet she gives me another reason to ponder. Her yes makes my life happier and more meaningful. A lot of plans were popping into my head even my itineraries. I have never been excited and happy like this. I now believe that splitting up with Diana was saving my life and not a curse.Five years of broken-hearted and mourning losing her was worth it as I met Kendra who makes my life meaningful right now. It was an unbelievable gift. I smiled remembering the night we meet. It was uncanny but fulfilling now that I ended with her. She really marks me after that night."Hey! Why are you smiling alone?" She asks."I remembered how I met you." I replied still smiling. She blushed covering her face with her palm. "Please don't remind me, Enrico! I was pathetic drunk and mad that day that's why I was crazy." She uttered bitterly couldn't accept the past."Every time I see you remind me of that day. If I hadn't met you I guess you are no
Evelyn Pov... My three-day vacation is over, and I'm feeling upset because I didn't achieve what I wanted. It may seem like I’m rushing things with Danny, but that's not the case. I'm just worried that someone might take him away from me. I don't care who he is, as long as he’s not a murderer. Haven't talked to my brother since I saw him. I know he was busy with Kedra as well and I don't want to disturb them. I gaze at Danny as he sleeps. I checked out of the hotel yesterday to spend my final night with him, hoping to create memories that I can cherish when I return home. I’m not worried about the consequences; I’m old enough to understand the limits and repercussions of my actions. I realize this isn’t right, but I can’t resist it. He’s captured my heart and swept me off my feet. Just thinking about him feels like a slice of heaven and a dreamlike paradise. My phone suddenly rang startling me on my trance. I pick up not to wake up Danny. "Hello!" I haven't finished my words yet
Danny Pov... To flaunt my cooking skills I cook a lot of food for our breakfast. I once dreamed of opening my own café or restaurant, but after what happened with my brother and our first venture together, I gave up. The memory of that one mistake haunts me—it nearly landed us in jail and almost cost my life but ended up losing him anyway. I glanced over all the food I had set out on the table before heading back to my room to call Evelyn. As I walked, I happily sang a Bruno Mars song, feeling excited and cheerful. But to my surprise, when I reached my room, she wasn't there. I searched the entire house, but there was no sign of Evelyn.I let out a deep sigh, sitting at the foot of the entrance stairs to my apartment, feeling both disappointed and sad. She always leaves without saying a word. Is she upset with me for turning her down? If only she knew it was the opposite of what she might think. I chose to keep my distance, not because I didn't want to engage, but because I wanted to
Enrico Pov... Before returning to the Philippines to face my life, I took Kendra to her office one last time. I'll deeply miss my beautiful fiancée, the rainbow of my life. "Thank you, babe!" She blasted before getting out of the car but I stopped her. "I’ll come with you to your office, love. You know I’m going to miss you!" I said brightly, holding her wrist. She smiled and nodded, and I took her hand as we walked toward her office. All eyes were on us from the lobby to her office door, even her friend stared at us, stunned and wide-eyed. I winked at her friend, and she and her colleagues giggled.The moment I saw Danny, I knew he was troubled, yet he still managed a smile and greeted us, despite his rough day. Seeing us happily close together stung him—it was subtle, but I could tell. "Babe, are you sure your assistant is doing fine?" I ask Kendra. "Yeah! He is a man who keeps his personal life out when inside the office but he will come around if he needs help." Kendra beamed
