“Tasya?” Tasya smiled at Clara, who opened the door. Her face showed surprise when she saw her.“When did you arrive, and why didn’t you tell us so we could pick you up at the airport?” Clara’s eyes were still wide open at her friend.“Surprise!” Tasya smiled and spread her arms in front of her friend.Clara snorted at her nurse friend, and it looked like she had a late reaction. Tasya laughed, and she spontaneously hugged her friend. “I just arrived, and I didn’t tell you because I wanted to surprise you.”She gently hit her friend on the arm. She was happy to be with her again, but she was surprised, and she suddenly also returned to the Philippines. What she knows is that she will be following them here in the Philippines by next month.“What are you? I miss you so much that I can’t wait another month.”Clara’s eyes were still smiling, and she hugged her friend. “I miss you too! Come inside, and Archer will surely be happy when he sees you. It’s good that you didn’t get lost look
“You’re going to give me that gown that easily?” She asked the man in disbelief.“You know I’ll give you everything you want; just stay by my side,” Aldrin replied seriously to the woman.Clara stopped herself from smiling. It’s annoying because the man still had the guts to make her thrilled. But when she remembered that he would continue to marry Beatrix despite him wanting her to stay by his side, she frowned. Even if there is an agreement or settlement between the two, it is still not good for her to stay next to him after his marriage with Beatrix. She also wondered why the wedding would be held in the Philippines when her first confirmation was in another country so that there would be no longer a long process for them to file a divorce."Remember, I will only marry Beatrix for my son’s status, nothing else.” Aldrin recovered when the woman from the other line remained silent.Clara snorted. She wanted to scold the man, saying that if she is really important in his life, why is
Aldrin watched Beatrix’s reaction while opening the box where the gown was placed. Beatrix frowned slightly when she saw the fabric of the gown. It seemed strange, and she didn’t like it. “Do you like it? I have made that for you by myself,” Aldrin asked the woman. Beatrix tried to smile sweetly at the man, and she didn’t want him to be disappointed by her reaction. “They say it’s bad to measure a wedding dress, so don’t touch it first. Then, on the day of our wedding,” Aldrin even smiled at the woman to convince her. Beatrix nodded happily at Aldrin. She noticed that since something bad happened to her, the man had spent more time with her. He was also extra sweet, even though he was still grumpy at times. “I’m leaving; don’t leave the house because the bride and groom will be brought closer to misfortune,” Aldrin said goodbye. “Thank you for the concern. Don’t worry, and I will follow all your instructions. You too, be careful!” Aldrin quickly moved away from the wo
At night, before the wedding day, Clara was restless. Their family’s hotel and resort is almost full of guests. She didn’t let Archer out of the house first, and someone else might see him. This is not the right time. She also knows that Beatrix is at the hotel because the wedding will be held early tomorrow at the seaside. It was as if the ocean joined her silence. The beach is very quiet, and the sea has no waves. The weather is fine, which made Clara feel good. And if the weather turns bad, there is a second option at their resort so that it still looks like a beach wedding. “Mommy, are you leaving?” Archer asked his mother. “Yes, baby. I need to personally check what the staff is doing. Also, both families are already at the hotel.” She stroked the hair of her son, who was already wearing pajamas. “Be careful, Mommy. Don’t stay up too late, and you’ll be marrying Daddy tomorrow.” Clara smiled. The child knows what will happen tomorrow. He is one of the unwilling to have
Beatrix’s blush doubled when she saw Clara. She was blushing with embarrassment and anger. She quickly approached the woman and pointed to her. “You flirt! It’s all your fault! I’ll spread the word about your poor service on social media to ruin the reputation of your business!” Clara quickly shook the hand of the woman who was pointing at her and smiled. “Go on, let’s see who the people will be more on the side of when they find out you didn’t give birth to the child and your mother is a criminal!”Beatrix’s eyes widened, and she stepped away from Clara. “Stop talking nonsense, and no one will believe you! Don’t turn everything upside down just to discredit me!” She was still angry with the woman.Clara grinned. “Be thankful, and I only interfered with the motif and gown. And be kind as well, because I might suddenly go crazy,” she threatened Beatrix.“Don’t you dare, bitch!” You don’t know what I can do if you mess up my wedding!” She angrily threatened Clara as she poked her. She
Beatrix took a few puffs of air through her mouth to calm herself. “You should be thankful that tomorrow is my big day.” She pointed at Clara again before turning her back on her.Clara just laughed because of the woman’s bravery, but she could see how her mother was worried.“Oh, that’s enough; remember you have to wake up early tomorrow too.” Tasya weaned the woman.Clara sighed before continuing to walk. She went to see the guests in the hotel and said hello to them.“Clara, hija, why are you still awake?” Sunshine caught the woman and greeted her with a wide smile.“Good evening, ma’am. Are you all right here?” She also greeted the lady and smiled back. Her whole family was very kind and greeted her as well.“We are fine here, hija. Thank you for your kind staff, and they’re taking good care of us.” Sunshine patted the woman’s palm. “Don’t worry about us here, and you should get some rest.”Clara smiled at the lady and looked around.“Aldrin is in a room with the men and is not be
It was still dark around, and everyone was busy at the beach. Clara is also awake and watching what is happening around the place from the surveillance camera. Even though she is not the real bride, she is happy to see the outcome of the venue. She dreams of this kind of wedding, and it is only right that she steals the spotlight from Beatrix later. The wedding ceremony starts at eight o'clock, and she knows that Beatrix is very excited now that she is getting ready. “Your makeup artist has arrived,” Tasya informed Clara with a smile. “Thank you!” She thanked her friend very much before turning her gaze back to their staff busy arranging flowers at the seaside venue where the wedding will be held. She has to monitor what is being done outside, and her staff might make mistakes. “I’ll take care of Archer as well.” Tasya excitedly said goodbye to her friend. Clara nodded to her friend with a smile. Next to enter was the makeup artist who would take care of her. She was even surpr
“Dear, are you sure the gown that was delivered to you is correct?” The smile on Beatrix’s lips was also erased when she saw the entire gown. She had doubts about its fabric the first moment she first saw it, but she saw the entire construction of the gown just now. She was very disappointed, and it was obvious that the design of the gown was not good, apart from the fact that the fabric looked cheap. “Aldrin’s staff brought that to the house himself, so why did this happen?” Even Lita was disappointed. She didn’t even look at it because she was confident that what was brought to them was correct. “Mom, how is this? That’s not the gown Aldrin chose for me!” Beatrix complained to her mother, almost crying. “Don’t cry, and calm down first. I’ll call Aldrin’s family right now.” She dialed a few more times until someone answered in a room where Aldrin’s family was staying. A few minutes later, Aldrin’s aunt Arriana arrived. Arriana looked surprised and stared at the gown lying on
Ava felt her heart jump out of her chest when she saw Alexander’s handsome face. She can see his beautiful body frame from leaning on the door jamb. He was like an oppa model. When a sympathetic smile appeared on his lips, his appearance now made any girl’s underwear fall. The girls made even more noise and were thrilled.“Gosh, he’s so handsome! Do you know his name?” The girl asked her seatmate and almost screamed from so much joy.Ava was even more annoyed because of the mixture of impressions and praises she heard from her students to Alexander. When she looked at the door again, her eyes met the young man’s, and he even winked at her.“The question is, who is staring at an Adonis like him here in the classroom?” One of the girls also asked excitedly.Alexander quickly left his stand when the girl looked at him badly. She was probably angry because the women in the classroom are causing so much noise because of his presence.“Quiet!” Ava shouted at the students who were still maki
“Yes, ma’am. I’m holding him back, but he won’t listen.”Rosella sighed and worried about her godson. The guard knows him as the chairman’s son. And she worried that he might have read the headlines in their hometown. She quickly walked and looked for Ava. Because Alexander will not listen to her or even to his parents. But if Ava is the one to talk to him, there is a huge chance that he will listen to the girl.Ava stopped what she was doing when someone knocked. Her students aren’t there yet, and it’s still early. She just purposely hung around in her classroom.“Ava, call Alexander, and he might do something no good.”Ava nervously stood up and approached the lady. “What happened, ma’am?”“Alexander left the compound and must have read the news.”Ava cursed in her mind, and her nervousness doubled. The vice mayor is not an ordinary citizen whom Alexander might do something bad against, like what he did to those who bullied her. Another thing is that she doesn’t want Alexander to do
The teacher was surprised to see a student in the doorway and looked angry at them. The gay teacher was about to approach him, but their dean came.“Alexander, what are you doing here?” Rosella commented to her godson.The gay teacher was surprised, and their dean knew the young student.“Tell them that it’s not their job to talk about their colleagues behind their backs.”Rosella sighed, and she saw her godson angry because of a woman just now. She looked at the teachers inside the faculty, and she could see the wonder in their faces, and it might be because a student was only talking like that to her. “I’ll take care of this,” she said almost in a whisper to the young man.Alexander left without a word and walked straight out of the campus hot-headed. He did not attend to his next subject.“Ma’am, does that student have a problem?” The gay teacher asked their dean.“The gossip is enough. If I catch anyone of you talking about Ava, you will be suspended; do you all understand?”Those
Luisa grinned. “There’s no need to make an effort because your unique smell is wafting away,” Luisa said in a taunting way.“Alright, my unique smell is free, and since it’s free, then feel free to smell it as long as you want. But don’t blame me if you have an upset stomach. Too much sniffing is also bad for your health.” She laughed when the aura on Luisa’s face suddenly darkened. She was annoyed again when she was the one who had started to argue with her in the first place.“Bitch!” She hissed. If only the look could kill, Luisa was sure that Ava would fall to the ground lifeless.She had turned her back on Luisa, and she knew that she would have a heart attack soon if she was only sick. It was still early, so she went to the faculty first. She was also full because of Alexander. Upon entering, the people there were suddenly silent. It looks like she is the topic again, well, obviously because there are traces of guilt on their faces.“Hi, Ava, have you read the circulating blind
“Alexander, enough… uhmmmm!” She tries to stop the young man, but she is unable to push him away from her body. She admitted to herself that his searching kiss was addictive, and his hand caressing her thigh added to the sensation that envelopes her body. When he got tired of the girl’s lips, his kiss crawled down her neck. He knew he would be hanged for what he was doing, but he couldn’t stop himself. Ava is like a drug that made his addiction grow. And for Godsake, even his hands seem to have a mind of their own and know where to touch in the girl’s body. His satisfaction didn’t end there. He wants more; his hand is searching for something. She gasped as her chest heaved when she felt the young man’s hand enter her top clothes. She stopped his hand before it reached her breasts, but she lacked strength. The sensation nearly drowned her. “Shit, why do you still have your period until now?” Alexander complained as if frustrated while gently caressing the young woman’s healthy bre
“Alexander, don’t compare that child to all the girls that you have made your toy. Because even if she’s just a maid’s daughter, I value them so much, and I consider them part of our family!”Alexander smiled after remembering what his grandmother told him. She still didn’t believe what he answered to her, but she still gave him the information he asked for.“Do you see something funny in my face?”Alexander blinked. He didn’t realize that he was stunned while staring at the girl’s face. He continued chewing before answering her. “Why are you so beautiful, baby?”“Alexander, how many times should I have to remind you not to call me baby because I’m older than you?” She complained angrily to the young man. “Alright, then let’s get into the point; say yes so you can be my girlfriend and I can be your boyfriend before I change our endearment.”“What? Are you insane? Are you courting me for you to say that to me?” She glared at him. So, this is how Alexander thought of them? Alexander s
Ava angrily hit the young man on the arm with her hand when she recognized him. If she only had a heart disease, she might have been attacked because of frightening her.“Ouch, baby!” Alexander caressed his arm even though it didn’t hurt.“Moron! Why do you have to drag me here without a word?” She glared at the young man. The Jew just grinned at her. It’s so good to smack his face. But she immediately reprimanded herself, and something else came to her mind.“When I say come with me here, will you come willingly?” Alexander’s asked at the girl philosophically.Ava glared at the young man. It is obvious what her answer will be to his question. Of course, it’s a no. What will be the reason for her to come here and to the private office that only the chairman uses? Even if it is said that the chairman is his father, it is still embarrassing.It was his first time to enter that room, and she couldn’t stop her own eyes from wandering to the beautiful staff inside the office. She looked at
Miranda was once again impressed with Alexander when he perfected the exam. He’s not just handsome, but he’s also smart. Brix is not lagging behind either, but he has five mistakes. And her? Here she is; her score hangs in the balance like the rest of her classmates. It doesn’t matter; the important thing is that she still has something to be proud of, and that is the beauty of her face and body.“Girl, are you serious about Alexander being your birthday escort?” Julie asked in a whisper.“Yes, it’s easy to change the invitation.” She smiled and knew that her mother would give her everything she wanted because she was her only daughter. Her brothers also love her and are ready to fight when she is hurt.“The question is, will he agree?” Julie asked her friend teasingly.Miranda glared at her friend; they had free time, so they had time to chat. They went to the canteen and looked for Alexander, but they couldn’t find him.“Ms. Ava, a present has arrived for you, and it’s at the facult
After entering the classroom, Ava immediately looked around. The first person she saw was Brix. He seems to be calm now and not drawing attention to her. Good thing then; maybe he realized it because she slapped him yesterday.The next thing he looked for was Alexander. She frowned when she saw that the young man’s seat was empty. She looked at the others there, and the young man might have just moved seats. But she was just disappointed, and he wasn’t there. She looked at the clock hanging on the wall. The class will start in just three minutes. She didn’t want to spoil her day so much, so she unfolded the papers and turned on the laptop.“Am I late?” Alexander asked from the doorway, gasping for air.Ava suppressed the smile that wanted to appear on her lips when she saw Alexander. His hair was messy, obviously not combed, but she would admit it that he was still handsome despite his messy look. He looks like a bad boy, but it fits on him. “Next time you will enter earlier,” she sai
