33.“Who are you?” the nurse asked Ruth at the station, while the young lady stood in front the counter, inquiring about Carmenzita Montesalvo’s room. That’s what Lush encountered when he descended. The woman’s tone seemed irritated, and Ruth couldn’t escape the scrutinizing eyes that scanned her appearance.“I can’t tell you the room number. Only important people can visit her, the wealthy ones in the elite society,” the woman snapped.“And whose order?” Lush sharply questioned as he stepped out behid the wall. Everyone there, including Ruth, turned to look at him.“Lush!” Ruth exclaimed, and he smiled briefly, but his attention returned to the disrespectful woman, insulting his great grandmother's visitor.“How can you say that a person belongs to high society? Is it based on clothing?” he asked, feeling irritated.“No, sir,” the nurse replied with a smirk.“You just said it and I heard it. You’re disrespecting my grandmother’s visitor just because she’s wearing a janitress uniform.

34.“AREN’T we going to have lunch together?” Lush asked her, but she just glanced at her wristwatch.In thirty minutes, it’s time.“I can, but I need to handle something first. How about next time?” she replied to avoid the situation.Lush teased her, “Next time it is. I’ll just have lunch alone.”“Oh, playing the most pitiful one,” Ruth said with a smile, and he smiled back a little, “I’ll join you, maybe for dinner at the condo next time.”“Let’s eat out instead. I can’t go to the condo yet because of Babuela. Let’s keep meeting for lunch or dinner.”“Payment?”He chuckled at her question, “Still paying.”“Just kidding. Okay, I’ll join you. I know you’re sad because of Babuela. I’ll leave now. Get some sleep when you can. It’s hard to get sick. Many will lose their jobs if you die.”Lush laughed at her words.“Why, that’s true. Have you had lunch? Eat now, okay? Unlike me, I can eat even while running,” he boasted.“I’ll eat nearby.”A taxi entered the hospital entrance

35."Go to the parking, CEO's." That's the text that caught Ruth's attention as she was about to go home, exhausted. She wondered why Lush even picked her up; someone might see them. Glancing at Berna, her friend seemed almost done with her tasks. Her other companions were still around."I'll wait for you, sweetie." What should she reply? She's been waiting for Ricky's update, but nothing so far. She sighed, unable to refuse, even though she didn't really want to."B-Berna," she called her friend, who looked up after securing the body bag. "S-Sir L-Miguel... says he's waiting for me in the parking," she said in a soft voice, widening Berna's eyes."What?" Berna questioned, "Maybe that's something else, friend. You're already married. He might just be a flirt."Guilt crept in as she couldn't tell her friend about what was happening with Lush Miguel."Uh-uh. I think I have a schedule," she reasoned out, feeling embarrassed."Berna," a man called, and they all turned to look. Melo was t

36.Ruth ran towards the parking area after Lush left minutes ago. She hurriedly escaped to avoid being dropped off at her apartment. She made him believed they had already moved.She felt overwhelmed by her lies. Concealing her true identity was challenging, but despite that, she displayed her genuine self to the billionaire. While running to the parking lot, she witnessed a man jiggling keys in the air as he approached to a car, giving her a greater shock than seeing a ghost.She was abruptly halted. She was about to call Lush and inform him of her leaving the condo the last minute, pretending her cousin called. The man in front of her also paused and gave her a second look.Recently, she had fantasized about reuniting with her husband, imagining running to him with a hug and a kiss. However, her emotions now contradicted those thoughts.She couldn’t run to embrace him joyfully; instead, she stood there, gazing at him as if he were a ghost to be feared rather than to get close.

37.Lush’s attempts to find a comfortable position on his seat because he was overshadowed by his inability to stay calm. He frequently checks his smartphone, eagerly awaiting a text message. Each time his phone chimes with a new message, he promptly opens his eyes and reaches for it, only to dismiss the chat head that pops up on his home screen—it’s not Ruth. Perhaps she’s already asleep, so why does he keep hoping for a message?He doesn't know; he's just too worried about her. He senses her sadness and knows she has a problem that deeply troubles her. Damn it, he cares a lot.“What is happening, Lush?” his brother, Delight inquires.He looks at his sibling on the sofa, reading a book that seems to be about him. Delight wasn’t really reading, he assumes. He scratches his head and gets up, glancing at Carmenzita, the elderly woman who is asleep.“Since earlier, you’ve been staring at your phone like you’re annoyed,” Delight teasingly remarks. “What’s bothering you? Are your ladies l

38.Ruth felt repulsed as Baron’s lips touched hers. Without hesitation, she pushed him away forcefully. “Damn you! Get out! After making a fool out of me yesterday, you will come here and pull this stunt. Is your woman not available, so you’re trying me?” Ruth’s lips curled in insult, but Baron’s jaw moved defiantly.“What were you doing in that condo? Do you have something to boast about that makes you act like this? Couldn’t you wait for my return and had to seek solace elsewhere?” Those words left her stunned. Hurt was evident on her face, and tears welled up in her eyes. Who left first?“I’m alive, Ruth. I’m here, alive and married to you. So, whatever I want, it’s my right, and you should follow. If I say I’ll use you, I’ll use you.”“You devil,” she replied calmly, “I’ll sue you.”Ignoring him, she walked past Baron, heading to the table she abandoned. Maybe Baron had something wrong with his head. “What’s your fight against me?” He arrogantly asked, earning a disdainful look.

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

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

The Billionaire's Mistress (ENGLISH) Other Man - 46
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
