She pushed him with all of her might. He allowed her to push him before intensifying the way he kissed her lips.

"How dare you!" She gave him a strong slap in retaliation for his bravado.

She slapped him, but he didn't even budge. Instead, he appeared to be teasing her with his glance.

"You sang a different tune that night. Have you forgotten already how compatible we were in bed?"

Even though her face began to heat up, she was even more irritated by what he said.

"That was a mistake!"

He laughed, seemingly finding humor in what she said. She stopped talking after that and hurriedly opened his car door to exit. Thankfully, he let her go.

She quickly retreated to her aunt's home. She was unsure of Carrie's reaction as her fiance abruptly yanked her away. It was fortunate that everyone was inside and that no one else was outside when the man suddenly grabbed her.

Before reentering the house, she paused briefly to fix herself. She searched the area for her parents. She saw them chatting

    When she heard that stern voice, she gradually opened her eyes. She saw that Sean was rushing to stop her cousin's hand from striking her face. "You're such a jerk too! Cheater! Get your head around you. You thought this cousin of mine was innocent, didn't you? She's sneaky and flirtatious!"The moment the man attempted to grab Carrie's hand back, she became aggressive. Sean wouldn't let go of her hand. He turned to face her brother, who was likewise taken aback by what had happened. He moved his neck, pointing outdoors, and said to his brother, "Mr. de Lara, please take her away from here." Sean gave her a quick glance to let her brother know that she was the one he meant to take away from that place. Just blinking, her brother was staring at his boss. Mr. de Lara!" Sean was raising his voice a little more to awaken his brother, especially since Carrie was still trying to attack her. Carrie appeared to want to scratch her face as she raised her two hands in the air. "Come on,

He was referring to the woman that Carrie had been arguing with after he announced that there would be no wedding. Joshua was still, just gazing at him. "Mr. de Lara!" He grew irritated with his reaction. Even the guests who were leaving the house of the woman he was supposed to marry caught his attention. Some of them looked at him unfavorably, but he didn't care. "Actually, S-she is my sister, Sean. I mean , S-sir." He was now the one staring at Mr. de Lara's face. Is that woman Mr. de Lara's sister? He furrowed his brows.

She could not say that she had met the man at the party and that something had happened between them that same evening.Come what may...She was still hesitant to enter as she stood in front of their wooden gate. She didn't arrive until ten in the morning. Before opening their gate, she closed her eyes.Outside their home, she noticed clothes lying around.Those are her belongings and clothes!They were simply strewn on the floor next to a huge empty bag.

    She hurriedly moved because she didn't feel anyone following her. She didn't go more than a few steps before stopping when Dino drew near. After a few weeks, they finally met."Yaz..." His voice started to beg as soon as her name was mentioned.Is it really necessary for two men to ruin her entire day or life?Dino looked at her puffy eyes and the bag she was carrying and froze in shock."Where are you going? Were you crying?" He inquired anxiously."Stop pestering me now, Dino. I'm tired. Please leave me alone." She avoided the man as she answered slowly."Yaz, we need to talk." He was trying to block her way.She inhaled deeply."Marry me this instant, please."Oh my! How many marriage proposals will she receive that day?"Please, Yaz... Let's go far from here after our wedding."She fixed her gaze on her ex-boyfriend's face. She was able to see his face pleading plainly.

    "Are you done sulking?"She was even startled by that baritone voice. While her thoughts were preoccupied with Mhariel and Dino, she forgot that she was inside his car.Only then did she notice that they had already passed by the bus terminal a while ago. She turned right away to face him."Why didn't you drop me off at the terminal?" She frowned when she asked that.He didn't say anything; he just sat there and stared at her."Do you even know where to go?" He focused his gaze on the road again.She was silent again."Just as I thought," the man immediately added.She was suddenly irritated once more. It seemed as though she wanted to vent her frustration with Dino and Mhariel on the annoying man sitting next to her."It's none of your business! If you don't bring me back to the terminal, I'll accuse you of kidnapping!"Without even turning to face her again, he simply laughed softly while smirking."Fine! Stop the car, and I'll get off!" The way he responded irritated her even more.

    "I have no doubt that many women would be willing to marry you, Mr... S-sean. I don't understand why you're offering it to me. Additionally, I don't see why you had to be married so soon after calling off your wedding to my cousin. Do you wish your wedding to proceed even with another woman because you regret the money you spent on the wedding preparations, if there were any?" She was wondering why he felt the need to use blackmail to force her into giving him her hand in marriage, even though they don't really know each other. Since marriage is a serious commitment, you don't just offer it to anyone. He laughed at what she said. "Do you think I care about the money? I don't have to be concerned about the expenses if I marry numerous ladies at once. Although I'm not bragging, I'm stating a fact. The truth is that if I can always make my own choice, I will never want to be married." She was even more confused by what he said. It turned out he's not interested in getting married. "T

Didn't you change your mind?" from inside the bathroom.Her eyes rolled as she continued, "Even if you stay there all night, I won't change my mind."She lifted the large lollipops to her lips and sucked them.

    As soon as she exited the elevator, she actually sprinted to Sean's apartment. She came to a stop in front of his unit's door.

Sean said he left the door open.She had earlier been anxious to confront the man. Her motions now seem to be moving slowly because she is aware that Sean is only inside. She was even more surprised when she took a peek inside and saw that it was just dimly lit. She walked right in. She moved slowly as she examined every corner.She quietly called his name, "Sean."She was in the middle of his condo's living room. There was a lot of room in the middle, as though the sofa had been shifted to one side. She observed a sizable gift box in the center. She scowled and wondered what it was.
