Chapter 100: One WeekSofia's POV"Let's make a deal: You will act as Sofia for one week, and after that, you're free. Just one week of being my girlfriend."Damn it! I didn't know what to say when he said those words. I didn't eat dinner, and until now, I'm still lying on the bed.He didn't sleep last night in our room, and I don't know where he went right now.How can he say that to me? But then, when I'm thinking about it, I could benefit from what he said, but at the same time, I don't know how to act as a girlfriend since I have never been in a relationship before.That's why it's hard for me to think about how I would be able to do what he says.Though it's only for one week, I won't lose anything if I try, and I can get the freedom that I want after that.That's only for a week, Helena; after that, you can go home. Just accept that deal.I got up and went to the bathroom to freshen my mind. I just wore a simple, plain yellow dress after I was done taking a shower.After that, I
Chapter 101: I Was FallingSofia's POVI'm lying in bed while he hugs me. I'm not comfortable with our position right now, but I want us to be like this.Marcus is indeed still in love with Sofia."Goodnight, Sofia," he said, tightening his hugs. I gulp because of how close we are."Goodnight, Marcus," I’m ready to close my eyes when his last words make my world stop."I love you, baby." I don't know, but his words hit me differently. I didn't realize that I was actually crying.What's wrong with me? I wipe my tears while not letting him know that I am crying.My heart aches all of a sudden. Why did I long for this night? Things went differently now since I decided to act as Sofia and when I admitted that I was falling.I closed my eyes, not daring to answer him."You are the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with," I heard a man say behind me. When I turned around, I saw the figure of a man holding a woman's hand; it was blurry."Marcus, I wanted to spend the rest of my li
Chapter 102: Just PretendSofia's POVThis is the second day that I will be pretending to be Marcus' girlfriend. Honestly, I wish to finish it in just a snap. Accepting that damn deal was not a good idea.I woke up without him by my side. I sighed, remembering what happened last night, but I couldn't dwell on it.I stood up to take a shower and do my daily routine. After that, I went to the kitchen and saw him drinking his coffee."Good morning," he greeted me before taking a sip of his coffee. I sat in the chair, and he handed me a glass of milk."Good morning," I greeted him back. He smiled as if nothing had happened. Maybe this is the best way for us both to act as if nothing had happened."Do you remember your dream last night?" he asked. At first, I was curious because he didn't have to ask, but I just shook my head."No, do you have plans today?" I asked him, thinking that we might do something to lessen the boredom."I have plans, but I'll tell you tonight. First, I'm planning
Chapter 103: Lucky Sofia's POV"Helena," he called me by my name, which made me clear my throat. "Stop daydreaming, dummy! What the heck is happening to me?""I'm sorry; what are you saying again?" I asked him. I knew he had been talking for a while, but I couldn't focus. Those lips were distracting me."I said, your clothes were placed in the cabinet. It's a dress. I just want this night to be special. I'll wait for you in the living room, okay?" He said, and he gave me a peck of a kiss on my forehead before he left.I bit my lower lip. Is he really that sweet? First, I let him kiss me on my lips, and now he kissed me again on my forehead. Why am I letting him do this to me? Why can't I stop him?I stood up and went to the cabinet to see the dress he talked about. When I opened the cabinet, I saw a glittering dress. It was lovely. He had good taste.I hurried to the shower room to clean myself, and after that, I excitedly wore the dress he had given me. It was perfect. He seemed to
Chapter 104: Men Were All The Same Sofia's POV“There's nothing to say sorry,” he said, trying to lighten things up.I still couldn't move on from how Marcus endured all of that just for Sofia.“I did everything to make him stay, though I knew that I was hurting her because of what was happening to me. I did all I could to make him believe that I loved her because I really loved her,” he said, his voice cracking. He was hurt as well as I was.It hurts hearing him say how he loved Sofia while I am here admiring him from afar. It hurts seeing him like this. I wanted to hold his hand and hug him tight, but I didn't have the strength to do it.I admit that every time I hear him say that he loves Sofia, I get jealous, but I don't have the right. I was jealous, and I wanted to steal him from her, but I knew I couldn't do it. Because no matter what I do or who I am, I can never replace Sofia in his heart.“Did she know?” I asked him to look at me.“Yes,” he said, which shocked me. She knew?
Chapter 105: Pleasure Sofia's POV"Are you mad?" he asked me, but I just shook my head, though I was a little bit mad. He said he still loved Sofia, that he'd been looking for her for many years and suffered for years, and yet he already knew where she was, but he was still here making things worse.Who would not get mad because of the way he is acting?"Listen, I know you are mad. Yes, I admit I already found her, but what can I do if she keeps on pushing me away?" He drinks his champagne in just one gulp.Pushing him away?! I couldn't understand this man!"Are you making excuses?" I crossed my arms, furrowed my eyebrows, and looked into his eyes."I'm not; I know you won't believe my words, and I don't want to make things harder, okay?" Damn him! I lost my appetite."You know what Marcus? Let's just end this night. I'm tired," I said and stood up. I walked past him, but suddenly, I felt a warm hug on my back. It gave me goosebumps, and I couldn't explain it. He rested his chin on m
Chapter 106: LiarSofia's POVI woke up with a headache. I'm already on our bed, and he's not beside me.All the things that happened last night flash in my head.“Fuck!” I checked myself, and I'm now wearing different clothes. Did he change my clothes?Damn! Should I go outside? This is embarrassing! I don't know what to do.I messed up my hair and slapped my face because of the stupidity I had! We did it. Damn!Then I heard footsteps outside our room, followed by a knock.But I didn't open it. He was calling me, but I didn't respond. I pretended that I was still sleeping when the door slowly opened.I heard him sigh and sit beside me.“Wake up now, sleepyhead,” he said and chuckled. Why is he acting like everything was normal?! We had sex last night, and it was not right! Shit! What should I do? Should I have slapped him? How can I talk to him now?He cupped my face, and I wanted to kick him so badly.“How I wish we could be together like this,” his words caught me. What did he mean
Chapter 107: FoolSofia's POVI hurriedly went outside while he was still busy talking to someone! Damn him! Why did he lie to me?He fooled me! All this time, there's a signal in here, and he didn't bother to tell me about it?! How could he?“Marcus!” I called him, and he turned around, surprised to see me in front of him. He didn't react because of shock.“So-Sofia-” I laughed sarcastically. Now he had the guts to call me Sofia after all that he did?!“When are you planning to tell me about this?!” I shouted at him, and he was about to walk closer to me, but I stopped him.“Don't you dare, Marcus! You're such a big liar!” I said, and he placed his phone in his pocket. Fuck it! Now I am convinced that he's just really playing me! I'm such a fool for believing him!“Sofia, please let me explain. It's not what you are thinking,” he said, which made me even angrier.“It's not what I think?! Stop fooling me, Marcus! Fuck! I believed in you! I thought you were telling the truth, but you j
