Rafael's Point Of View

When I got out of the car, I immediately glanced at my wristwatch. It's precisely eight o'clock at night. I glanced at the bar's name simultaneously and remembered what happened to me in this place. I let out a deep breath and finally entered the bar.

I am here right now in a private room of the VIP Lounge bar to meet a VIP client before I take care of what I need for the Philippines. While waiting for my client, I again checked the designs that I had to present to him.

I was in the middle of checking designs when my phone suddenly rang. I immediately took it from my handbag and looked to see who was calling. It was an unregistered number, so I was still determining whether

    Rafael's Point Of ViewI slowly put my luggage down and then looked around our house. Everything is still the same as before, and the only thing that has changed is the photos displayed in the living area. I was busy watching the pictures displayed when I didn't realize Dad was behind me."Nothing has changed in those yet. That's just not increased. Because you and your brother don't give your photo to your Mom, the display is no longer updated."Dad said, then tapped me on my shoulder."Yeah. Anyway, how's Mom?"I asked Dad, and then I looked around again."He's upstairs resting. You can visit her later. I'm sure she will be happy."Dad said, then went to the mini bar. He took two glasses and a bottle of whiskey from the display."Are you ready to manage a company?"Dad asked me, then handed me a glass of whiskey. I drank that wine before answering Dad's question."I will only do that for Mom."I spoke and then looked at Dad. He smiled, which surprised me because I had no memory of h

    Rafael's Point Of ViewI am in my room and haven't come out for almost two days. I want to avoid seeing Dad, especially Zephanie, going back and forth outside my room and knocking. She lied to me like Dad. They are united with me except for Mom, who also doesn't know what happened. But even though I don't want him to feel sorry for me, I still can't leave the room because I know Zephanie is with him.I got up from my bed and then went to my study table, where it was facing the window so I could see the very bright sun. I let out a deep breath and opened my laptop. I didn't even know what to do, and why I opened my computer just continued to be busy in front of it. I opened what folder on my laptop until I landed on an Untitled folder. I opened it, and there were my photos from six years ago in the Maldives.I closed my eyes tightly when I suddenly saw the photos there. I opened my eyes and continued browsing through the images in that folder. I just smiled while looking at the happy p

    Amari Fleur's Point Of ViewWhen I got out of the car, I immediately looked around the yard. Nothing has changed even though it has been several years since I came here. And what used to look like a mansion has doubled in size even more. I smiled when I saw Mrs. Devera walking in my direction."Is that you, Fleur? You're indeed a stunning woman, and you're getting even more gorgeous."Mrs. Devera complimented me as she kissed me on my cheeks."How are you, Mrs. Devera? You look so captivating as well."I told Mrs. Devera. She giggled at me and then grabbed my hands."Just call me Aunt Jeaneth or maybe Mommy Jeaneth. After all, you are Klaus' girlfriend and soon-to-be wife."Mrs. Devera, which made me speechless."Yes, of course, Fleur. You should call me Tito Franco, but I would love to hear if you will call me Dad."Mr. Devera added. I smiled at both of them and still could not utter a single word."Wait, why didn't Klaus pick you up at the airport? Where's Klaus, Franco? Where is yo

    Amari Fleur's Point Of ViewFrom the second floor of La Collection d'Amari, I could only see through the tinted glass of my office. I chose to stay inside because there were so many reporters outside. I should not stay in my office, but only with some nasty reporters who keep asking about my rumored husband, from whom I don't even know where they got it. I launched my business here in the Philippines. I am very grateful because its outcome was successful, just like other branches I launched in different countries. I was happy when Patrizia arrived yesterday to support my launch and as Mom's representative, too, because she couldn't come for personal reasons, which I understand. "Today is the official launch of a new branch of your business. But why are you hiding here in your office?" I looked at Patrizia and smiled. I sat down on the one-seater couch and lightly scratched my forehead."I wanted to welcome the people who attended the launching of my business, but too many presses ca

I also learned that Mr. Veron is one of the partners of A&A Guevarra." I raised my eyebrows at what the investigator said. I would like to know if Timotheo Buenaflor knows about this. Indeed, I will find out about it soon."Cy Veron?" I frowned as I asked the investigator because the name he mentioned was familiar to me."You heard it right, Miss Fleur. Cy Veron and Zerina Cortez had a past relationship, and Zephanie Cortez resulted from it." The investigator said as he handed me a DNA result. According to the result, it is a one hundred per cent positive match that Zephanie Cortez is Cy Veron's daughter. I smiled as I shook my head and shifted my gaze to the investigator before me. "I don't know who your source is or how many connections you have, but I can say that you are a good investigator," I told the investigator, m

    Amari Fleur's POV"Since you mentioned that Zephanie Cortez is one of your clients. I assume she keeps flashing that friendly aura of hers to you. But all I can say is be careful when she is around." Lauren said, then continued sipping her coffee. I was curious because of what Lauren said."What do you mean, Ms. Sanchez?" I asked Lauren. She put down her cup and beamed at me."I told you, just call me Lauren. Anyway, Zephanie is my ex-trusted friend. And to make the long story short, she ruined me during our high school and then took everything from me," Lauren said in a sad voice. My curiosity started to grow as I stared at Lauren. I badly wanted to ask Lauren everything about Stephanie, but I needed to act more in front of her for now. And I needed to be very careful because I just met Lauren."Really? That sweet…" I started acting, but Lauren cut me off and burst out laughing."Are you going to say that woman with a sweet angelic face? Don't get fooled, Amari; she is a witch", Laure

    AMARI FLEUR'S POV"Is this true?" Mr. Veron said and seemed still can't believe what he just heard. "You heard it right, so I look forward to your loyalty to the company. It seems that Mr. Buenaflor's loyalty was not in my company. That is why I decided to replace him. And according to Mr. Devera, I could trust you, Mr. Veron. And he is sure that your loyalty in the A&A Guevarra, so I hope I can count on you." I firmly said authoritatively. Mr. Veron immediately nodded and bowed his head to me. "Ms. Guevarra, I promise that I will work harder. I will also prove that you did not make a mistake in choosing me. My loyalty is to your company and you," Mr. Veron said. I nodded at him in response and glanced at Mr. Devera."Alright, you can go now, Veron. See you at the Annual General Meeting. Mr. Devera said, then shook hands with Mr. Veron. I sat in my swivel chair and waited for Mr. Veron to leave."Are you sure about this, Fleur? Timotheo Buenaflor is a great man; I don't see anything

And even though my mind was screaming to ignore him, it was also my mind that was controlling me to stay with him. I removed his hands from my waist and faced him."Rafael," I felt like I ran out of words. We stared at each other's eyes, and I suddenly felt in heat.He stepped forward, looking into my eyes intently. I can't understand why I feel like I'm melting right now. He wasn't smiling; he was thoughtfully staring at me. As he approached, I felt a strange feeling. "What are you doing here?" Rafael coldly asked, but my mind remained blank, and I could not think of an answer. He snapped his fingers, which brought me back to my senses. "I-I just visited a friend," I utterly answered. Rafael stared at me."A friend? Do you mean a guy friend? Who?" Rafael asked seriously but immediately stopped when three employees passed at us."So, who is your friend? I am working here; maybe I

I said to Rafael but he still continue following me."How about Aella, she has a lot of similarities with me, is she my daughter?" Rafael said which made me nervous."Rafael, please, don't do this, just let me go and stop concluding things," I said but what shocked me is when Rafael kneeled in front of me. "Please, Fleur, choose me, we can runaway together. You don't need to get married with my brother." Rafael said as he reached for my hands. "Are you insane? I can't hurt your brother just like that.
