DIDN’T expect to hear those words and showed him a vulnerable side from the younger sister of his rival, and who he knew and all along is a tough woman. The person who is a current thorn to for his plan.“Looking at the kids, I wonder how nice would it feel to have a child.”Aaron is completely swayed by those words from Lindsey. Especially with her gentle smile and warm look towards the children that are currently playing not far from them.“Tsk!” He smirks and quickly realize a thing. “Do not be the stupid one here or you will lose this fight.”He whispers to himself, along with his pride that is almost caught into a deep pit that he will never get out from and where he shouldn’t be falling in the first place.“What do you think? Would I be a great mom?”Aaron is then surprise by the sudden question that Lindsey asks from him. Like he is caught in a trap where his life is somewhat depends on the answer that he will give.“Are you really asking me that?”“Why not?”Their eyes meet an
“WILL you resent me if you will know about that past?”Cath is taken aback by the words that she faintly hears from Sam. The both of them are all alone in the hotel room where Sam is taking a moment of rest from his wounds. “Sam.”She calls his name and sat beside him on the bed with all those worries in her eyes and half-hearted emotion about how she should reply to that question. “I’m sorry Cath.”Hardly contain his emotion and at the same time, he doesn’t want Cath to see his weakness. Sam slowly lay his head on Cath’s shoulder and hold her hand tight. “I do not know what to do if you will not forgive me.”His words puzzled Cath. After thinking first that it is just a matter and the same from the past and the reason for her heartache. His betrayal is that she already forgave him, yet she is just scared to say it and admit it fully. But then, Sam’s words are telling her that it is a different case after all. “Yes, I hate you so much for betraying my trust back then Sam. I was h
“WILL you resent me if you will know about that past?”It has been three days since the ball happened and that conversation between them Sam. Yet, Cath still finds herself remembering those words and the fact that she knows that there is something more to it that keeps on bothering her. “Cath.”“I’m sorry Cath. I do not know what to do if you will not forgive me.”Words that continue to ring inside her mind. Added with the expression that Sam draws in that time that she had never seen on him. Not the worst unlike his expression during her father’s funeral that she now thinks about, and is bothering her. “Cath, Cath!”“Yes?”She finally snaps out of her thoughts and looks at Jun with a bit of an irritated look towards her. “Is there something wrong?”“Cath, is there something bothering you?”Both Jun and Nadia’s worried tone and words. Looking at her with worry and disappointment for acting unlike she usually does. Especially during their planning that the three are casually present
“LONG gone and now, I know that they already got the fact that someone took the evidence that was taken by the security camera’s during your accident and Cath’s kidnapping.”“By now, they are planning something for being silence for three days now. An unlikely character for Francis.”“But then, I wonder if everything that currently happened is all Francis plan, or there is someone else behind his back?”Their continues exchange and ends up for Jun’s deduction that immediately pins all those warning thoughts inside Cath and Nadia’s mind. For a possibility is high in the current moment.“Are you saying that we have an enemy that is around Francis that we do not know?”Nadia’s words that Jun immediately nods with clarification. Thought that Cath then remembers someone from the night of the ball.“Damn!” She curses to herself for forgetting about a crucial fact that she stupidly didn’t told them and fast.All after it was buried by her thoughts and worry from what Sam told her during that
“YOU called for me Governor?”“Stupid!”Charles screams in anger and disappointment towards his trusted secretary. The moment and exact second when she enters his office. Throwing her a pile of document that ends up scattering on to the floor.“What is it that you are so upset right now, Francis?”She boldly calls his name, his real identity that only the three of them knew. While looking at Francis directly in the eyes with irritation, yet still in her sophisticated presence and casual tone of response.“Francis? Tsk!” Charles smirks, now in wrath for how bold and without fault she said his name without any concern of who will hear her. “Did you bump somewhere and hit that brain of yours, that your wit just scattered around just like those documents on the floor, for just casually calling me by the name?”His dismay, anger and irritation. Fuming in rage and slamming the glass table in front of him. Yet, she didn’t flinch for a bit and instead smile cunningly with her words.“Relax. N
“I will give you that chance and the benefit of the doubt. I will not tell anything to Cath, but make sure that you will. Sam.”A reminder and warning the Jun pointed out and more towards Sam. All after having the information and the truth that he investigated himself from the past that one way or another will hunt Sam and drag Cath in pain.“I will trust you in this matter. Break it down slowly and simply to Cath.” He added, caring so much to his partner, Cath and the one that will be the sore loser at the end. “She will be hurt, and that’s a fact. But being honest with her earlier and with the truth that will come from you. I am sure that she will understand and forgive you for everything, Sam.”“I know.”The heavy tone and guilt that Sam is facing right now. From the past that is now hunting him back and making him angry for the truth that he should be confessing to Cath.With his hands in a tight clasp and fist. He is looking at Jun straight to his eyes with the following words.“
“YOU are important to me Nadia, and that’s an awful truth I will not deny.”Jun’s response in a teasing tone and clown like smile that Nadia almost took to be a confession.“You are playing me, right?”“Tsk! Was that a bit obvious?”Her disappointment and dismay. Yet, she couldn’t help but smile from those words that Jun said. Even though it wasn’t what he truly means.“But I didn’t say that it was a lie.”Jun added, that somewhat taking back his words and telling Nadia that what he first and initially said for a while back is the truth.“Of course.”Nadia’s shy reply with the blushing face that she hides under the blanket and casually without Jun suspecting a thing.But.“What that?”“What’s what?”She a bit panic when Jun sat beside her on her hospital bed and put his hand on to her forehead.“Are you having a fever? Your face looks all red.”Jun’s worried look and face that is observing hers in a bit of a close proximity. Making it hard for Nadia to somehow breath for that moment.
BOMBARDED with the things that should be done and quick. Cath massage her head with her right hand while reading the documents that Jun’s junior in the police district sends her. All from Jun’s command, and the importance of it for Cath to have.“We need to act quick.”She whispers to herself, and immediately opens the door of Nadia’s VIP hospital room to discuss their next move. Only to find Jun almost falling face flat on the cold marble floor and Nadia all red face like a tomato. “By the way--- What’s going on?”Her little evil grin while looking at the two who are hiding something from her. Their little secret that is not that secret for her. For she quickly understands everything, and by mean everything, all the fluff and the rosy atmosphere around them“I’m sorry, did I disturb your couple time?”“What?”Cath’s teasing that Jun and Nadia immediately jump right and denied it flat and big.“Do not worry about me, I’ll just come back later.”Her sly smile and knowing gaze to the t
