Amber returned to the condo with a smile on her face. One of his sisters approached. Andrew's next."Do you like him?"Amber was surprised by her sister's sudden question, so she stood up straight and looked at her sister, her brow furrowed."What are you talking about, Jennie?" Amber asked and then walked to her room. Jennie followed him."I can see it. It's obvious that you like him and so does he, it's obvious that he likes you, Amber." Jennie said with a smile.Amber frowned even more. She knew what Jennie said was true but she didn't know that Stephen and her were so obvious for her sister Jennie to notice right away."You're talking nonsense, Jennie. Go to bed early because I will come with you two, you and Allen and early tomorrow to enroll you,” said Amber and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.Jennie just laughed because of Amber's reaction. It was also obvious to her that Amber avoided such a matter. Jennie left Amber's room and went straight to her sister’s roo
Amber couldn't speak immediately because of Stephen's answer. She didn't believe that was Stephen's reason because she already knew why. For Amber's, Stephen doesn't need to do that thing especially if it's Amber's family.Stephen ended up paying that Amber couldn't move from her position to stop Stephen, it seemed that she was just a statue even though she wanted to stop Stephen. While Amber's two siblings Jennie and Allen were amazed at what Stephen did, they didn't expect that to happen. They looked at each other when Amber suddenly pulled Stephen away from the accounting window."We can study in a good school, Allen..." Jennie said happily to her youngest brother, Allen.Allen was the same, he felt happy because it was the first time they could study in a beautiful and expensive school. It was their dream but because they were poor, lacked money and Andrew happened to get sick, they were unable to attend even with a scholarship because they still lacked the daily expenses of going
When Amber and Stephen arrived at the office, they stopped when they saw Vivian outside Stephen's office, sitting in the waiting area. Stephen frowned when he saw Vivian."Vivian, what are you doing here?" asked Stephen. Amber was behind him.Vivian first looked at Amber behind Stephen, "can I talk to him alone?" she asked Amber with a smile.Amber seemed surprised by what she said but also realized that she should leave. "I'm sorry," Amber said and then went straight to her cubicle.Stephen looked at Amber for a moment and then turned back to Vivian. "What do you want this time, Vivian?" Stephen asked and then he entered his office.He just left the door open for Vivian to enter. Vivian immediately followed him. Stephen went straight to his swivel chair while Vivian stood in front of him. Stephen just looked at her seriously."I came here so that we can really go ahead with the plan to get married. I will not accept that you will say no again because your parents came to me, they tol
A few days have passed since Vivian and Stephen talked in Stephen's office; Amber and Vivian met. Because of the incident, Vivian also started to disturb Amber's life. One day, Amber had a day off and Stephen was also on a business trip, so he and Amber were not together. Amber thought of taking her family for a trip to the City. In a famous mall, in an expensive restaurant, she brought his family. Vivian also saw him there.“Oh, is it also Stephen who spent the money for them?”Amber's family turned to Vivian, wondering what Vivian means. Amber closed her eyes tightly for a moment before she stood up. She said goodbye to her family first to talk to Vivian, and she thought that Vivian would follow her, but Vivian didn’t, she remained standing in front of Amber’s family."Did you even know how much of a gold digger Amber is? Your daughter?” Vivian asked Amber's family with a laugh.Amber's jaw tightened because of what Vivian did, her fists were also clenched. Amber's family's looks sh
When Monday came, Amber went to work early. She didn't wait for Stephen to come to the condo again to pick her up. And as she used to do, bringing food for Stephen was repeated. This time, it was Annie who was cooking, and Annie also said to bring food to Stephen. At first, Amber stopped her, but Annie persisted.Stephen wasn't in the office yet, so Amber entered his office first to put the food she brought in. She put it in the fridge and plans to just heat it up for lunch tonight.When she finished, she heard the office door open, so she immediately turned around. She saw Stephen standing, and he was shocked to see Amber."Good morning," Amber said.Stephen's face brightened, and he rushed to Amber and hugged her tightly, which surprised her as well. Her eyes widened, and her mouth fell open."Hey, are you okay?" Amber asked worriedly. She also hugged Stephen back."I just missed you," Stephen whispered.Amber frowned. "We haven't seen each other for just two days, Stephen," Amber s
Stephen was surprised to see his grandfather and his parents. He was just planning this morning that he was going to visit his parents at the site but why are they here now? Engineer Anderson also did not tell him that his parents were returning to the City."Chairman, Mom, Dad. What are you guys doing here?” asked Stephen. Amber was still behind him so he turned back to Amber. "Just go to your place, I'll just talk to them," Stephen whispered.Amber immediately nodded to Stephen and then greeted the guests before she went to their cubicle. Stephen's mother, Sandra, observed Amber and noticed that Stephen did not order Amber to get even tea or coffee for them. Instead, Stephen asked them to enter his office but the Chairman refused."We will talk in my office," said the Chairman seriously. His assistants went first and they just followed.When they entered the chairman's office, other employees approached Amber one after the other, which surprised Amber. Her eyes widened in shock when
Ericka couldn't believe it when she heard that from Amber. That Amber doesn't know the truth."Oh God..." Ericka covered her mouth when she realized something. "Oh God, I'm sorry. I don't know that you don't know. I shouldn't have been the one to say that," added Ericka.She touched her forehead as if what she did was wrong. Stephen also didn't tell her that Amber didn't know yet so she didn't mean to say. So she also thought that maybe because Amber didn't know about that matter, Stephen didn't want to tell either.“Hey, Amber. Don't be angry with her," Ericka said and suddenly grabbed Amber's hand when she saw that Amber's reaction was different because of what she heard.Amber looked seriously at Ericka and then she smiled lightly. "It's okay. At least, you told me.”Ericka was even more worried because she knew that Amber was disappointed by what she found out. She is also worried that Amber will be angry with Stephen and she is even more worried that Stephen will be angry with he
The next day, Ericka invited Stephen to lunch. Ericka said to take Amber, Stephen said that to Amber but Amber rejected him saying that she didn't know the reason so she was the only one to go with Ericka for lunch.“Where is Amber?” Ericka asked when Stephen arrived at the finest restaurant requested by Ericka."He doesn't want to come, even if I try, he still doesn't want to," Stephen said seriously.Ericka just nodded as if she knew why Amber didn't want to come. He felt guilty because he felt he was the one to blame. But as he watched Stephen now, he seemed to be unaware of what was happening to Amber.'Didn't Amber tell her?' Ericka asked herself. That's what he saw in Stephen now so he also thought of such a thing."It's okay. Maybe we should just do it, I missed you too," Ericka said with a smile. He doesn't want to open up about what he said to Amber because he seems to be afraid of Stephen's possible reaction.Ericka also thought that if Amber deliberately did not mention to
The day came when my father woke up so we were all in the hospital, including Diego. He still has difficulty speaking but that is the only problem. The doctor said that he is slowly recovering so we can expect him to continue recovering. I haven't even told my father that I'm getting married because he hasn't spoken yet. So the first thing my mother and I did was prepare for the wedding."Do you think Dad would be angry if I told him?" I asked Diego. We left the hospital and Diego told Dad that we should stay with them first, he didn't even nod, he couldn't do anything because it was only right that they were close to me."He won't get mad, I am sure of that." I turned to him. I still can't imagine him being hands on in preparing for the wedding even though I can also see that he is busy with his own life. Occasionally I see him come out at dawn. We still haven’t shared the same room because that’s what my mom told us. If the two people are not married, do not share the same room."I'
“I just thought that you would cook for them. I wouldn't have eaten dinner but if you cook, I'll get home early. ” I stopped. I bit my lip because of what I heard from him, I was even more embarrassed because of that."If your walk is important and you can endure, I'll just leave for—"“No. I will come home early later and we will eat together. ” He cut me off and he smiled. I nodded slowly and let him do what he wanted because we might take a long time if we continued to argue.Once we entered the house, he also immediately entered his room and I told the helpers that I would cook, they said they would help me so I would cook more for everyone. I would first deliver the food to the hospital for mom and my brothers, and I would go back home to wait for Diego. All I cook is stew meat and grilled fish. He didn't say what he wanted so I'll take care of it. Dad taught me how to cook a lot of recipes when I was young. When they were still in good health, we had a small restaurant with us a
"Aren't you leaving?" I asked him. Earlier he accompanied me here to the hospital, until now Dad is not yet done with his operation.“I finished everything I did for this. Here, eat first. I also sent dinner to your family so don't worry. ” He sat down beside me after he gave me the food.I watched him. What is he doing? Is he still waiting for me to accept his offer? "Diego," I called. He looked at me and then I averted my eyes from him. I held his right hand which surprised him. "I have something to tell you.""What is it?" he asked seriously but the nervousness could be seen on his face. He was about to get off his hand but I held it tightly. “Why? Is there a problem with what you say? ” he asked. I bit my lower lip because I don't think his face can be painted anymore.“Nothing. I just want to say that I am now accepting the offer. ” His forehead furrowed so I was curious. Why? Doesn't he? “Why? I am accepting the offer, is that what you want, right? I just want to help you with y
Diego told me earlier that he would not leave me beside him, this is me now he is not with me."So, how long have you and Diego known each other?" Lucy, one of Diego's friend's girlfriends, asked me.They all asked me a lot of questions when the men were talking, and we women were left at the big table. I had no choice but to mingle with these social people."Just recently," I sparingly replied. I’m still embarrassed because I really feel like I’m not fit to be with them."What do you mean, just recently? As in, not long ago?" one asked, I forgot her name.How can I say that I will not be judged? Did Diego just use me to be with someone here or will Diego buy me to be his wife? Of course, that’s not what I’m going to say because that’s a shame on Diego and me."Six months," I said. They seem to believe. Until we talked differently, I just asked questions that could be told to them just so that not everyone would pay attention to me."Excuse me." I stood up and said goodbye to go to th
I don’t know what Diego wants to happen, he called my parents earlier to say that if I could be included anywhere. This is my parents, they happily accepted Diego's wishes, they allowed Diego to take me with them. So now, I’m here at his house to shop for clothes online because that’s what he ordered. I was with Mina, one of the helpers. She's at my age.“Don’t you like it, Ma’am?” She showed me the black dress and I am pretty sure that my chest would be obvious, the back was also open. She is beautiful but I don't know where Diego and I will go to wear this dress.“It is good, but I don't know where Diego and I are going, I will call him first and if I know what we are going for. We will be back. ”"All right, Ma'am." I turned from her and took the cell phone, I called Diego who immediately answered.“Hey, is there a problem? I'm going home in a minute,” he said calmly to me. I'm just tired because his voice seems to get better when he talks to me.“Mr. Diego Mariano, yes there is a
What is he saying? "What did you say?" I asked with a frown. What will he do to put me to sleep? Do I look like a child who should be put to sleep? "I'm going back to the room, continue what you're doing." I was about to turn around when I stopped because he called me.“If you can’t sleep, would you mind joining me?” I narrowed my eyes on him, looked at his whole being. Will he let me work out too? "I mean, what do you want us to do until you fall asleep.""You won't do what I want you to do—"“Except that thing, Janella. I don’t do that… not now. ” He already knew what I was talking about. I had no idea what to do. I looked at him wearing a top so I could breathe easily, he motioned for me to follow him into the kitchen.I accepted the wine he gave me. "This one will help you sleep, try it." I looked for a moment and tasted, the wine he gave me was delicious. It's apple flavored. I sat in front of him and he sat in front of me.I looked at him as he also poured wine for him. I took a
I don’t know how I got to his car without being forced. He was driving quietly and I was simply looking at him. Earlier he said, I could not speak and just sat on the bed, he was on the couch until the end of my work shift. We did nothing but look, not moving. He was always looking at his watch, he also suddenly pulled me out of the club. I haven't even talked to Miss Pim, Diego directed me to his car. I just texted Miss Pim that I was leaving and was with Diego, I am pretty sure she knew Diego was with me because she didn't tell me that Diego was the VIP customer. I was still wearing my bathrobe, I got my things right away and some of my colleagues even wondered who was pulling me but I didn't have time to explain everything to them.I was surprised to look out of the car when we entered the big gate, it was opened by two guards. "Where are we?" I asked him."In our house," he replied, so I was even more surprised. Seriously, the huge size of their house. Is it still a human's house?
It's time for me to go on stage. I was wearing my thin cardigan, the whole body was clearly visible just wearing little lingerie. I heard people shouting outside even before I climbed, they already knew the signal that I was coming out. The DJ will play a song for me and that's the sign for me to go up so people are already shouting."The star!" shouted by them.As I stepped up the stairs, I slowly took off my cardigan cover so the surroundings became even louder. I touched my body from my hip and walked to the front. They started throwing money away. I did nothing but accompany the music and let the money they threw on the stage. I walked to the pole and I started my dance. I do pole dancing. All this I was able to do for the money."Nothing faded, she's still hot." I heard one of the men say. I searched for that voice and when I saw it, I smiled at him. I walked towards them, I danced in front of them. I slowly removed my underwear and turned off the light there as well. Any gadget
After I finished my shower and cleaned up, I simply put on something. I wore a plain T-shirt and fitted pants. I had no idea where the two of us were going, and I had even more trouble saying we would be leaving now. It was his decision. I will be leaving later because I'm going to the club, and I'm sure Miss Pim will be surprised if she saw me. Since I have worked at this club for several years and I am used to doing my job in this world, I will not accept the offer."Where is Diego?" I asked Justine, my second brother, and he pointed outside the house, where I saw Diego turning around and seems he is talking to someone on the phone. I turned back to my two brothers, staring at them. "Help clean the house and then help Mom and Dad with work after you do your school works.""Yes ma'am!" they said together and laughed some more.I sighed and then left the house, waiting for him to finish. He looks busy with life, he still has time to go out. I hold the folder that contains the agreemen
