HEART smiled as Silvana entered the restaurant. She was still in her uniform, having gone straight to the counter after her class.

“Aiz,” she nodded at her friend.

Silvana approached the counter immediately to take over. Heart greeted her with a serious expression.

“Hi,” Silvana said with a nod.

She gestured for Silvana to come to the receiving area near Vandros’ office to talk privately.

“How are you?” She asked Silvana as they walked. “Your papers are okay. In a week, you’ll have your Café.”

“I’m not good, Heart,” Silvana said, and Heart looked at her.

They sat on the sofa, and Ella quickly followed with a tray of juice and snacks.

“Thank you,” she said to Ella, who was staring at her.

“Ma’am,” Ella said, raising her eyebrows. “May I talk to Sir Vandros? I just have a question. I need help.”

Heart was about to ask what the problem was when Silvana spoke.

“You will never go wrong, Miss. Vandros does a lot of helping to his employees. I am one of those he helped before.”

    C9Heart quickly followed Vandros into the office the moment Silvana left. She entered, seemingly casual, but her heart was pounding.“What does Ella need?” she asked the man. She didn’t want to seem nosy in Lux’s business, but she just wanted to know what the waitress needed. Trying not to be paranoid, she couldn’t help it, especially since Ella was beautiful. Silvana’s words triggered her memories, and everything that happened before rushed back.“She’s asking for help with the pawn for the rice field that’s up for auction,” Vandros explained. Heart’s lips tightened at his curt response.“What help can she get?” she asked, her tone sharp. Vandros closed his mouth quickly as a response.“Answer my question. What kind of help are you offering? Call your boss and ask him, and as for Ella you’re going to sell her to Lux…” She paused, her eyes welling up with jealousy.“No…” Vandros interrupted right away, looking alarmed, “It’s nothing, Heart. You know my friend loves you dearly. Ell

    C10QUIETLY, Heart entered their room and headed straight to the walk-in closet. She felt Lux’s gaze on her, but she was just gathering the courage to ask him questions. She hoped he would tell the truth. The question was, was she ready to hear the truth if it turned out to be painful?She went into the bathroom to take a shower. When she came out, there was food prepared on the bedside table. She approached it and quietly began eating. Lux also took a plate from the tray and ate while sitting on the bed.Neither of them spoke until she finished. She gathered their plates.“I’ll do that,” he offered, but she continued and left the room.When she reached the kitchen, she felt Lux following her.“Baby, you’re angry,” he said.He leaned against something near her, but she continued washing the dishes instead of just putting them in the dishwasher.“I saw a crumpled paper. Who gave that to you?”“A kid. Someone just handed it to me.” She lazily replied.“I don’t like this. Maybe it’s like

    Chapter 11Heart felt her hand being held by Lux as they both simultaneously grabbed the car door handle. She looked up at him. She hadn’t expected him to open the door for her on the passenger’s side of his expensive forward car.If Vandros’ car is expensive, how must Lux’s car be? It was different from the car he had brought to the restaurant earlier. Billionaires really lived a different life.The young lady quietly got into the car when he opened the door, saying, “Thank you.”It smelled wonderful again, just like Lux. He got into the driver’s seat and started the car quietly. According to Heart, she should have sat in the back, but she felt too shy to do so. She didn’t want him to think he was her driver.They didn’t talk. She felt extremely awkward. Even if she wanted to speak, what could she say? They didn’t know each other. She had seen Vandros at the restaurant for a while, and she was quite comfortable with that manager, so even if she had to boldly ask for help, she would.

    C12Heart blinked in disbelief as Lux released her. The annoying guy walked out of the office, and she quietly followed him.He passed by while singing a song, and searched for something on the laptop. She furrowed her brow until a song played through the speakers.That's a song by a band. It played while he was looking at her, smiling but she didn't smile back. It's as if he's foolish for listening to the song, even though she didn't want to, it's like she has ears of a mouse. The lyrics of the song "Mahal pa rin Kita" involuntarily enter her ears.Attempting to act casual, Lux approached the table where some businessmen were waiting. She then returned to the counter, resuming her duties as a cashier.Chats flooded their school group chat. It was exclusive to their classmates.Celeste forwarded a photo.Celeste: Just captured. They say it’s a blind item.There were numerous chats, and the last one she read was about a classmate being the mistress of a wealthy man. Allegedly, sh

    “C13”“FUCK!” a loud curse snapped Heart out of her trance in front of the television. That’s what she heard after the door violently swung open, revealing Lux. “What the f*** is that?” he angrily demanded from his friend, abandoning the visitors he had been talking with a while back.“I don’t know. Lola Carmen supposedly issued the statement,” Vandros replied.“Turn that off!” he insisted, gesturing fiercely at the TV, his mestizo face turning red.She recognized Lux’s anger; he wasn’t the type to get mad like this unless provoked, similar to the incident four years ago with Franco and Diana.Lux glanced at her, and his expression softened. She saw compassion in Lux’s eyes, causing her entire system to melt. She wasn’t crying; she was just stunned and unable to react to what she saw on the TV.Someone was trying to ruin her, and she didn’t know who. Diana was the only one capable of such deception, as that woman orchestrated everything that happened to her before. Diana might pret

    C14Even though Lux didn't want it, he couldn't do anything when he left Heart at the restaurant. He felt pity seeing her strong yet tearless. Time had hardened the Heart that once relied on him.He was amazed at her bravery in the face of everything, resisting tears. Despite the intense insecurity and jealousy the previous night, she stood firmer now. Does his Heart still need him? He feared the strength he witnessed. She seemed like the kind of woman who could stand on her own even without his help.Damn. He always needed her to want and need him just as he did. He's on his way to pick up his grandma now. He's close. He spotted his mom's car, probably bringing Lush to the mansion.He quickly went down upon entering the yard, stopping in front of the main door. "Daddy!" Lush shouted, running towards him. Carmen and Elisa were behind."Hi, son!" he greeted, lifting Lush. "Where's my Bobbie?" Lush immediately asked."Mommy's still working. Are you bored already?" he asked, and Lush sh

    C15Heart's mind is filled with thoughts while she prepares dinner. Lush is busy playing with his airplanes, content on the floor, occasionally running and flying the plane. Lux has bought him every type of airplane toy, including one with a remote control that once hit the TV, breaking it.Lush cried a lot, but Lux found it amusing, praising the excellent flying skills. Heart was upset because they wasted the TV, which was worth more than just a few hundred thousand pesos. Lux claimed the TV wasn't durable.Since then, she never let Lush hold the remote control of his toys. He played manually. Although there's a playroom upstairs, he preferred to play wherever she was.When she was a kid, Playrooms weren't common for them. The yard and the living room served as their playing areas, extending to the kitchen.They played and wore out toys wherever they were. They weren't wealthy enough to have playpens or playrooms. Lush seemed to have adapted to playing anywhere, and Lux mentioned be

    C16Lux scratched his head because his bookbinding was cut short. Heart wanted to sleep early because she still had an exam the next day. He moved closer to his wife, embraced her, kissed her shoulder, and tried to press his masculinity against her.She giggled, “You really don’t want to be stopped.”“I just miss you. You didn’t talk to me last night and all day. That turned me so old.”She giggled again, “So, if I leave you, you’ll age quickly,” she teased, and he chuckled in response.“Probably. When I lack love, I age. Kindly check, baby. Do I have a new wrinkle here?” He pointed to his forehead, and she quickly looked.“None.”“There is,” he insisted, placing a kiss on her and leaning over her.“Oh, Lux!” she exclaimed as he tried to part her thighs.She couldn’t resist because he was stronger.“Just one more, baby. I promise,” he said, and without further ado, he entered her, so what could she do?She could only close her eyes and let him lay her down, turning her over. He held

    46.RUTH accepted a handshake offered by the manager, Vaughn Andaya. She was sitting in front of the man, who was in a swivel chair. She applied for a position at SM as a sales lady for an expensive clothesline worn by politicians in their area. A button-down shirt costs four thousand pesos. Today is her interview, and she just got hired a month after returning home from Manila to Camarines Sur. She’s in Naga City searching for a job and doesn’t want to stay idle at home.Her relatives are furious with Baron, and they say that if he shows up, he’ll face consequences from Uncle Ernesto. They may not have pure blood relatives, but their relationship with each other is invaluable, especially for her, a considered orphan of the family. Her family is protecting her, especially now that they know the story about Baron.The people from Cam Sur have a different attitude—brave and unyielding. If Baron sets foot in their area, he’s in for a surprise. Vaughn smiled at her during the handshake, b

    45.RUTH is holding her resignation letter, planning to give it to Lush Miguel. Patricia, facing her, reads the letter. “This is an urgent resignation letter, Miss Eduardo. It says you have something to attend to and will be away for a while. Where to?” Patricia asks with a smirk.“Confidential, Ma’am. I’ll be traveling today,” Ruth responds.“Okay. If that’s your decision, it’s hard to stop you. I don’t know your personal life and problems,” Patricia signs the letter without hesitation.Surprised, Ruth asks, “Won’t you submit it to the CEO?”“Nope,” Patricia shakes her head, “Lush had given me all the authority to decide as long as it’s under my supervision. In your case, since you’re under me, I’ll handle it. Besides, there are plenty who can replace you. Good luck.”Ruth nods and forces a smile. All the authority is with Patricia. Why should she be surprised? Patricia is probably the woman Lush mentioned as new, just unwilling to tell her.She turns away, heavy-hearted, wal

    44.FINISHED.He took a deep breath as Ruth gradually disappeared from his sight. Seated in his car, he waited like a thief, watching her run away with Muse’s cage.That’s all he could do, gaze at the girl from afar because, despite his anger, he genuinely loved her. Even in anger, he couldn’t insult or speak hurtful words to her.His respect for Ruth remained high despite everything, knowing she deserved it. Now, he envied Baron. That asshole's spouse was kind, and he hoped to find another Ruth someday, but not now.Lush badly needed time to heal, and the process wouldn’t be easy. He was sure of that because he was deeply hurt in his first experience of love.The young man lazily started the car engine, but he didn’t go in. He would go home, where his parents and Babuela were. He owed his parents an explanation. At thirty-one, he felt the need for a mother’s care. He needed his Mommy.When he arrived home, his shoulders still slumped. As soon as he entered the portico, his Mommy was

    43.1Ruth was startled when the door opened, and Lush’s imposing figure loomed over her. “Oh my!” she exclaimed, supporting the young man who peeked at her and smiled. He playfully tapped her nose with his index finger.“Hold on a moment,” she said, closing the door. “We can’t go upstairs; the stairs are too high, and we might both tumble down. Let’s sleep downstairs. Wait, I’ll get the blankets. Have a seat.”Hurriedly, she assisted him to sit on the sofa. He groaned and shook his head, but the young woman quickly went upstairs to retrieve the thick comforter from the bed.Descending again with the items, including Lush’s replacement clothes, she handed him the bottle of alcohol he still clutched.“I’ll take that,” she said, grabbing the bottle.He closed his eyes, his cheeks flushed. He remained the most handsome drunk she had ever seen.“Did you drive home like this? You’re really drunk. Next time, don’t get overly intoxicated. You might stumble or lose balance,” she lectured whi

    43.Lush choked on saliva. He couldn't find any words to respond to Ricky. Tearfully, he averted his gaze to hide his eyes. Did she lie to him? Did she conceal her real status? Her profile claimed she was single. Did she forget to update it? Damn! He wanted to rub his face, feeling suffocated. Is he serious about his feelings? Why is fate playing with him like this? The woman he loves is Baron's wife?Damn it!He almost clenched his fists. He wanted to cry and almost wanted to slap himself."Wait, Rick," he hastily excused himself from his friend and walked briskly towards the table with various expensive drinks.He stood in front of it, on the verge of tears. Is there another Ruth Eduardo in the world? Who?He couldn't explain his feelings. He was angry. Why did Ruth deceive him? If that's what happened?He grabbed a wine glass and drank. Unsatisfied, he took another and drank again. He repeated this to numb the pain in his heart. The time with Ruth might have been brief, but he knew

    42.Lush Miguel remained nonchalant, lounging. He was still in a four-post position. Ruth was sleeping after four rounds in bed. She was upstairs, and he left her momentarily. He went downstairs to have some coffee now.He grinned as he remembered her annoyance earlier when he introduced Patricia in the lobby as the supervisor. Ruth was jealous of the woman, and he found it amusing. Ruth already had feelings for him, but she was reluctant to admit it. He felt a different kind of joy when he heard the girl sulking in the bathroom earlier.He used to dislike having someone chase after him. He didn’t want anyone to be possessive, but now, he was proud of it. To the point that Ruth didn’t fence him in, and she didn’t hide. Luckily, he overheard her.He took the coffee cup and sipped, but he looked at the stairs when he saw Ruth descending.She was wearing his long sleeves, buttoning a few buttons.“Why are you still lounging?” she asked, obviously sleepy, with no slippers on.He glanced a

    41.The last message Lush Miguel sent her was when he mentioned driving his grandmother back home. It’s now ten in the morning, and the coffee break is over. She’s inside the restroom, yet there’s still no update.She’s also waiting for that. It’s a big miracle that she’s not being talked about in the entire company now because of what happened the other day. She’s been waiting to hear something since yesterday. She even told Berna about it so she wouldn’t be surprised.So far, Montevez has remained a peaceful environment for her, especially now that Dennis is no longer around.“Hey.”She winced and stopped mopping the floor as Berna approached her.“Come on, hurry. Your boyfriend is there with another girl!” Berna waved at her, causing her to furrow her brow.Lush?She quickly walked to the door and went outside. The janitors gathered in the lobby, all staring at a beautiful girl. She wasn’t tall, but her skin was exceptionally smooth. She was chubby and had blonde, long hair.She ca

    40.“IF I were you, go to the party, so your ex won’t have anything to say,” Ruth told Lush while talking on the cellphone. He was already in the hospital while she was in the penthouse. It was late, and she was alone. All lights were on because she had no company, but she wasn’t scared. He had a companion—the cat. It was amusing that when she asked Lush to take Muse from the condo, it was promptly done by Lush’s bodyguard.“Damn. I really don’t want to go there, sweetie.”“It’ll just be a moment,” she said, though deep down, she didn’t want him to go.Oh God! She gets jealous at the thought of Lush fooling around with that woman, Annelyn or any woman, but he can’t do anything about it. She wants to push him away so that if they break up, it would be easier for both of them.Ruth feels like she has a bomb in her head, a life-threatening illness, that could end any moment. As time passes, she gets closer or, more accurately, falls for the right guy at the wrong time, wrong circumstanc

    39.“Thank you,” Ruth smiled at Ricky when they left the police station. She declared that the missing person, who pretended to be kidnapped, was not really kidnapped. She published everything, with Ricky as her witness. The investigation was over. She had concluded everything.The police laughed, wondering why her own husband did such a thing to her. There was only one reason, Baron loved money more than her.“Your job for me is done,” Ruth added, acknowledged by the investigator.“Next time you need a private investigator, just call me directly. For simple matters and when I’m free, even without payment. It’s what makes me happy.”“But never trade a woman and leave her at the altar for an investigation,” she said meaningfully, and he laughed, getting the meaning of her words.“Of course. There’s a more deserving man for you, unlike dela Vega. Where to? Shall I drive you?”“No need. Thanks again.”“Alright, take care. I’ll get you a taxi.”Ricky walked towards the street, and she fol
