JANICE is not used to drinking alcohol that is why she immediately felt tipsy even though she only drank two glasses of wine. She took her phone out of her bag, then checked the call history, it was full of her mom's number. There are many unread messages as well, but she did not bother to read those. Janice has a smile on her face as she dialed Chrismith's number.
"Hello?" A baritone voice greeted her.
"I'm sorry, did I wake you up?" Janice asked, shy.
Chrismith's forehead furrowed. He stared at the phone like he sees the person that he is talking to there. He could hear the background noises and the voice of the woman that he assumes to be drunk.
"Are you okay?" He asked the lady while fixing the papers he was reading just before. He always brings those papers with him even at home.
"I'm not." She denied.
"Where are you?" He worriedly asked Janice as he hears the background noise in that pl
NICA kicked the flat wheel of her car, now she is stuck in an isolated place. "Why do I have to be so unlucky right now!?" She muttered while looking around.She is scared to stop a vehicle passing by because she cannot trust just anyone, who knows what evil plan they might make. She sighed, she thought that this unhappiness is happening because she was happy a while ago. When she remembered her half-sister, the fear she feels turned into anger.Nica quickly grabbed her bag in the front seat of the car and look for Chris' calling card. She knows that her half-sister will go to Chris' place, so she has a reason to disturb them."Can you help me?" Janice requested to the young man.Chris scratched his nape when he saw that Janice is having trouble taking off her blazer. Her hands seemed to lack strength to pull it off her arms. He had no choice but to stand up an
"WHERE have you been?" Margaret gritted her teeth as she asked the young lady who just entered their house. She even made sure that her husband was already asleep so he would not know that their daughter came out."Not now, Ma!" Janice was tired."I am still talking to you so don't you dare turn your back on me!" Margaret rebuked her daughter in a low voice, she would not like a noise to wake her husband up.Janice stopped taking steps and faced her mother. She looks annoyed. "I'm big enough, so I don't need to have your and dad's permission before I am able to do what I want anymore!"Margaret was shocked. She never expected her daughter to be so rude like that. "When did you have that attitude similar to your sister, huh?" She glared at her and restrained herself from pulling her hair."I'm so tired of being submissive, Ma! I don't want to be the kind of person you wanted me to be anymore, I hate it!" Janice releas
Chrismith smiled when he noticed Nica's stares at his lips as he drinks coffee. She is displaying her carefree face that he would often see when she is in his Bar and Resto. "You want to taste it?" Chris offered her his cup of coffee.Nica frowned upon his cunning smile. She does not want to ever admit it, but she was exhilarated by his sweet stares and smiles. She also wants her lips on the cup. "An indirect kiss won't be bad!" a coquett
Nica studied the figure of the lady in front of her. Anyone would get a negative first impression of her because of the drawing of her thin eyebrows. She is thinner than her, but they are the same height."Are you done checking on me, Ma'am?" Bheng asked, impatient.
"MY Cousin is already in the company." Larry informed Chrismith as he called."Very good, I want to know the truth before we get married so I don't have to clean up anything in her name."
"WHAT do you want?" Janice angrily asked Nica when she entered her room."Can you help me to pack my things?" She softly requested to Janice, even her eyes look happy. Her flight with Chrismith is tomorrow and the others will follow them to witness their wedding. They will just go first to personally prepare everything for their wedding."Our fight is not yet over, so don't celebrate yet!" Janice exclaimed, she wants to get even with her after she insulted her."You're fighting even though the person you are fighting for doesn't even like you. What a pity." Nica replied and smirked when her sister's face reddened because of the anger she is trying to control."He'll just marry you for the company's sake, so don't be ahead of yourself. You're more pitiful because he's just going to use you. He did not choose me because he wants to maintain the good relationship we have."Nica lifted up an eyebrow, her words cut through her, but she did not show her
Nica's grasp on Christmith's arm tightened when she finally faced his mother.Luisa's eyes followed her son's hands. He removed the young lady's grasp on him. She should not be delighted with what she is seeing, but she cannot help but smile when he intertwined his hand with the girl's. If only she does not know that their marriage is just a contract marriage, she could say that they love each other."There's no need to act like a sweet couple in front of me, I know you two are still one another's stranger." Luisa criticized their behavior once it has been just the three of them in the living room.Chris was surprised by his mother's cold words. He helped Nica to sit before confronting his mother."What?" Luisa gave him a confused and innocent stare in response to her son's questioning eyes.Nica's sadness doubled while she looks at the two, who probably have a misunderstanding because of her."Mom, I agreed that we'd stay here for you to ge
The bizarre smell that travelled to her nose awoke Nica. She did not open eyes and simply feel her surroundings. She sniffed the thing that sticks to the bridge of her nose. It was the first time in her life that she smelled it and it was her pillow."Pillow?" Her eyes widened when the thing she thought a pillow sunk in through her mind. When she recalled where she is right now, she blinked her eyes twice just to be surprised."Shit!" She cursed in her mind when she recognized the man's chest in front of her face. She carefully lifted her head up to look at the face of the man he treated as a pillow. She sighed with relief when she saw that he is sound asleep. Her cheeks reddened as she slowly lifted her right arm that was wrapped around him. With their position, she can say that she was the one who took advantage of him while he was fast asleep.The sleeveless shirt he is wearing is thin that she can trace what is underneath it. Both of his hands are behi
