"So, what do you think if I model your brand too?"

Both my brows raised as I waited for what Jaxson would say because his eyes just stared straight at me.

"That's not the reason why I told you my mother's past."

"I know, but don't you think I can't do it? You don't trust me too?" I uttered as I held my laugh trying to pull a joke on him.

I don't think that Jaxson caught my joke as he just stared back at me as if wanting to pull my soul out of my body.

"I see your potential and I trust you too much that it's making me afraid of allowing you to be out there."

I was taken back by Jaxson's words. I did not expect those words to come out of his mouth. It even feels like the Jaxson I am spending the night with is not the real one.

"T-Then... If you trust me, why don't you just let me try? You know, you can actually say straight to me that I'm not the one you are looking for your brand and you need someone that has experience."

"No." He answered me quickly without wasting any second. "You ar

    My eyes were left in the air, still processing the words she just let out. Her words were too much for my intellect and reflexes to absorb, and even though I watched both of them get up from their seats, my body didn't appear to be able to work normally.My very first project as a Miranda model would be alongside Daniella? Who was Jaxson's previous fiancée? I mean, does it really have to be her out of all the models they have throughout their agency? Am I being played, or does life plainly want me to be his plaything? Good grief.I admit, I could perhaps care less because I already assume that she is one of their biggest models and this is not exactly a surprise at all. Besides, she is not actually that deleterious. However, what really concerns me is that engaging in a collaboration with her would be so bewildering and would undoubtedly generate a lot of attention. In this industry, I am nothing compared to her. To Daniella Yves' stardom, I am nothing. I don't want to dishearten mys

    When I regained myself from what she did, I turned to look behind me and see if Mrs. Cooper already arrived but she hasn't yet so I decided to look around but there was no one in the room other than the two of us."You're showing me the real you right now, because obviously, no one is here to see the Daniella Yves that everyone knows." I said while trying to contain my emotions and not explode in front of her. I don't want to look weak in Daniella's eyes. "I don't care whatever it is you have to say to me but I am serious. Stay away from Ray if you don't want to get hurt and involve yourself. You are in so many dangers, Cattleya Santos.”"Excuse me?" I blurted as my brows lifted. "So what I am hearing here is that you are asking me to get away from my husband? You are delusional.”"Oh, please! Do you really think I am the one that is being delusional here? We both know that Ray doesn't really love you. Let's get real.”I chuckled sarcastically."And how can you be so sure of that? No

    "Let's see what will happen to you then. I tried to warn you.”I groaned as she stepped on my left foot. I writhed in pain as her pointed heel hit my big toe.Just as I was about to shout Daniella, the door to the room opened and she spat out Mrs. Cooper."Cattleya, why haven't you put on your practice shoes yet?" It asked me.I secretly touched my toe nail and bit my lips to suppress the pain before I tried to stand up as I silently groaned. I almost fell but I was surprised that I didn't fall to the floor.I felt an arm grab me. When I recovered myself, I immediately stood up properly and faced the person who caught me."T-Thank you." I stammered. But not because I am ashamed of the person who helped me, but the pain that I am feeling in my feet. I really hope that my big toe nail won't turn black and die, because I swear— that is so unforgivable."The pleasure is mine. Where's your practice shoes?”When I recognized the man's voice, I quickly looked up at him.“Richard?”He smiled

    "Are you okay?"While I was putting on the practice shoes they said, I felt Richard pull me aside."Y-Yeah..." I answered breathily as I felt the pain in my foot caused by Daniella stepping on it.When I measured the high heels that they call practice shoes, I did not expect their height.“That's a pretty high and uncomfortable shoes. Are you really okay with it?” Richard asked concerned with a tinge of worry in his voice.I chuckled in response. "I have been wearing heels like this when I was working in your club. It's not really a news for me that I am wearing high heels. I even do my job in heels for like hours.”“That's tough.” He uttered with a grimace while pinning on the shoes I am wearing.When I tried to stand up, in fairness, these shoes are more comfortable than it looks like. That's why it's scary that if the wearer takes a wrong step, it can result in spraining the ankles. I really have to take good care of myself because Daniella isn't really a safe person to work with u

    The girl gently took out from a small box the photograph that was crumpled, torn and patched together with glue.A sweet smile drew on his lips as he looked at the photo of a happy lover. He ran his little finger over the young man's face in the photo."Dad, you really like mom. If only I knew you were alive, I wish I would have told him not to like mom anymore." he said weakly while talking to the one in the photo. "Dad, do you know how I knew you were alive? Because I found this picture. The day mom married uncle Rex, she tore up the picture and threw it in the trash. But, they usually burn the pictures of dead people, I saw that on the show."The girl's voice was sad as she spoke to her father, even though she knew he couldn't answer her."What did you do wrong to mom?" it asked. "Every time I ask him about you, he always cries before going to sleep. I think dad, mom really hates you. But I, I want you."He hugged the photo in his hand and then took a position on his bed to lie dow

    I struggled to get my body moving and hit the button on the bedside table. “Good evening, Aunt Elsie? Are you there?” I politely called the other line and waited for her to respond. It's excellent that Jaxson has been using advanced technology throughout this bedroom. Since it is so distant from our room, I wouldn't have been able to call Aunt Elsie if I weren't strong enough to go down to the kitchen.“Good evening, Mrs. Madrigal. Are there any things you need, my mother is not around.”“Angel?” My brows furrowed as I questioned, “Why isn't Aunt Elsie there? She left— and where did she go?” As this was the first time someone other than she had taken my call, I started to get concerned. “Yes technically, she is not here. She isn't, however, in the yard either, ma’am. I believe she is taking after Mr. Madrigal who has just arrived home. Do you want me to call her for you?” In a serene tone, she responded, with her voice light and airy.“No, no, it's okay…”“If you need anything, Mrs

    “Babe...”A soft voice woke me up from sleeping soundly. Even if I don't open my eyes, I knew well that this is Jaxson.I giggled when I felt his soft lips on my forehead, trying to wake me up. He never missed any morning to give me a sweet kiss as a morning gift. We really are a couple and I still couldn't believe.I scrunched my nose as I felt the pain on my foot as I slowly lift my body with the help of Jaxson supporting the back of my head.“Breakfast in bed.” My eyes slowly opened up as I was shock by the food in front of me. I couldn't help but be touched at what he did.“You are so sweet...” I muttered as I returned a gentle kiss on his forehead. “This is the very first time I'll experience something like this.” I honestly let out, feeling my eyes forming into doe because of the joy that the food brought me.This just came at the exact moment. I mean, I was planning last night to skip breakfast and pretend that I am not hungry just to wait for Jaxson to leave the house so I ca

    I could hardly believe the words coming out of his mouth.How is it that the Vince that I just recently met who works for Steven's company, is the one they say is the youngest heir of the Celestials who was our batch when we were still studying at Harrison High?"B-But wait... If you're the Celestial I'm thinking of, does that mean you also went to university at the same time Steven and I?" I asked in surprise.As far as I remember, there was always talk about who the heir was. The only heir I knew at our school was Steven.“Yes, I attended Harrison High with you. Like I said, if you only knew how to look back, you would have recognized me. You couldn't even notice me or turn a blind eye because your eyes were too direct on that man."I bowed down because of what he said. Come to think of it, I only have one friend and that's Mavi. I was careful to get to know someone else because I was afraid that Steven would get jealous. Even with Mavi, I can't always give him time because Steven d

    "You might think that I'm a creep, but I love how you look like whenever I kiss you." Liam stated straight.I felt my cheeks burning like hell because of what he said. My blood rose to my cheek and I felt it was on fire."You look like a baby, every time.""Oh, shut up." I tried to avert my gaze from him.He extended his hands at me and just simply grabbed my hand. I'm slowly getting used to always holding Liam's hand. If back then I almost died from being so nervous, now it's just a little bit.But I feel like I'm walking on clouds because of the lightness of my feet and the feeling that you're floating.I looked around. There are still many people here even after the sun has set, most of the people wandering around are tourists like us.I lift my eyes and I can't believe what I see. What I used to see in shows is now in front of my eyes.I stopped walking for a while to take a closer look at Namsan Tower. No wonder why so many people want to visit it, because it is really beautiful

    “How can you be so sure? What if they won’t give you a call? What if… Uh… There would be an emergency and they can’t contact you?” I insisted on the question once again. Jaxson can’t stay here all day, because if that happens, then I have to stay all day in this bed too. He will eventually find out that I can’t walk. “— Also, you won’t stay here with me all day even if you don’t go to your office. I have a call from Miranda agency that we have costume fitting today.” It’s not entirely a lie because the agency called me early in the morning that I have to be there with Daniella.I am planning to go regardless of what she can do to me. And what I am thinking of, is to sneak out this house with the help of Richard. Besides, he won’t suspect that Daniella did it to me because it seems to be an accident when I fall off my shoes. It’s only me and her who knows exactly who did it to injure me. I can’t help but to worry about Lance’s and Daniella’s plan for Jaxson and I. They are harming

Since it is so distant from our room, I wouldn't have been able to call Aunt Elsie if I wasn't strong enough to go down to the kitchen."Hello, Mrs. Madrigal. My mother isn't here, do you need anything?""Angel?" I asked with my brows colliding. "Why isn't Aunt Elsie there? Did she go somewhere?" I became worried because this is the first time that she is not the one who answered my call."Well, technically she's not here. But she's also not outside the house. I think she's taking care of Mr. Madrigal that just came home, ma'am. Would you like me to call her?" He calmly answered with his soft and airy voice."No, no, it's okay..."If you need anything Mrs. Madrigal, I can bring it to you right away."I nodded quietl

    "You're giving me tickles, stop." he chuckles as he continuously leaned away from me.I giggled as I continued to tease him. "You're such a ticklish baby.""I am not." he tried to straighten his face and stop laughing but he couldn't stop it.When I got tired, I leaned on his chest again and then fiddled with the button of his polo shirt."When are we going back to New Jersey?" I asked.It's like... I don't want to go back and face his life. I just want to stay here next to Liam and hug him all night, make him laugh, and talk to him."We're not going back unless you ask me to." he uttered.I moved a little away from his chest to look him in the eyes. "Really?"His hand came up to the top of my head and ruffled my hair. "Really."I took a breath. "If it's possible, I'll claim you and never give you back."He laughed softly and then turned his attention back to the laptop in front of him when he received an email.I brought my lips to his ear again, but this time, to whisper."Liam is g

    [THIRD PERSON POV]Maddison and Blade are now inside the car who have been restless with their hands on the steering wheel and gulps one after the other.Even though Maddison couldn't understand why she was letting someone she didn't know very well take her somewhere, her body seemed to be telling her that it was okay to go with the man next to her now.As well as the strange feeling he feels in his heart, which he never once felt with Liam.Even though Maddison and Liam have been in a relationship, it cannot be denied not to see the chemistry between the two of them.Maybe because from the beginning Maddison was forced by her father to know and love Liam.When Maddison and Liam are together, her father treats her well and smiles tenderly. But every time Maddison doesn't know the location, or if Liam does me, his father hurts him.At first he didn't understand his father's repeated beatings, but he still did what he wanted.

    "I missed the breeze here..." Maddison muttered as Blade pushed his wheel chair towards the shore of the sea. "I avoid even thinking about this place because of painful memories." he smiled bitterly.When they got there, Blade stopped pushing and then he sat next to its wheel."Me, I'm always here to calm my mind. It's often on top of the rocks so I can see the entirety of the surroundings. I still remember that we always hang out there." he smiled as he reminisced their past.Maddison also seemed to smile as she looked up at the place where Blade was looking."I know... you told me before, I'm the only woman you'll bring there. Did you keep that promise?”Maddison turned to Blade who looked away and then pretended to be playing with the sand.Maddison let out a small laugh. "Don't tell me...""I brought Crystal there once." Blade uttered but he still couldn't look straight.Maddison only laughed harder that made Blade turn to him. "What's so funny? Aren't you angry?”His eyes rounded
