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 then waited for him 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 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

    “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

    "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

    “Hey, curly haired lady. I need your service.”“What would you like to have for a drink, sir?”“No. I don't mean a bottle service. I need you to play as my date for just one night.”“But sir, that's not a part of my job in this club. I can only serve your drinks- ”“Money serves as a reward for services rendered. Does this job pay you more than I can?”_____________________[Cattleya]I ran a finger through my hair to rearrange it after the incident that happened earlier.“I'm sorry Cattleya, it's really unavoidable for such a customer here at the club. You were the top service last week so the manager asked for you to come back.”I just threw a glance at my friend Loren. She's the one who introduced me here to the nightclub as a bottle service girl.At first, this work went well. But earlier, an o

    “Cattleya...”I heard Loren mumble my name again, but I still don't have the enthusiasm to glance at her.“Catt, are you okay? You seem too preoccupied today. Our class has been dismissed and we can now go home.”Only then did I move my eyes to look around.Loren was right. Our professor was no longer inside. There were also only a few students left in the room.“Did something happen, Catt?”I turned to Loren and was greeted by her sad and worried eyes.“M-My little brother... Charles. He was rushed to the hospital last night after he passed out.” I mumbled. “The doctor informed us that my brother inherited the disease that took the life of my father… C-Charles also carries Thalassemia. And if he won't be given an immediate surgery, it can get worse and spread throughout his blood.”Loren kept quiet and responded with empathy by t

    After they've spent more than two hours mending my entire body from head to toe, I am now finally standing in front of a gigantic door.When we arrived, I had heard that this was the home where the Madrigal family lived.I am honestly not so surprised because this castle-like mansion obviously screams wealth and royalty. This place is so huge that even before we got inside, I had already seen more than twenty staff.I once again threw a glance at the red dress I was wearing. I have no idea why this is the color they chose for me to wear, and why it has to be exceedingly revealing at the back. The dinner that we are attending is a wedding celebration, so I don’t get why I am dressed like this. Red is the least color a person should wear to this kind of occasion because it might bring bad luck to the celebrants.Or I guess, they really meant for this to happen.But anyway, I didn’t even try to whine about w

    “I am willing to pay you any amount, Cattleya. Just consider my plan. This could be my last chance to save Ruegold. So please, help me.”I'm already getting annoyed by his repeated questions as he wanders back and forth in front of me, obviously anxious.For someone like him, this is already a massive problem. But, to be honest, this isn't even half of the issue that other people are dealing with today.The wealthy strive for fortune and honors. They are not yet content with what they already have. On the other hand, unfortunate people like me are barely surviving only to go back home and put food on the table.I let out a deep sigh. “No matter how much you pay me, I will never marry you. It is already enough for me that I attended your family dinner as your fake new girlfriend-”Jaxson cut me off, “Don't say that out loud!”“Okay, okay, calm down.” I said, raising both

    “Wear this ring.”My eyes were drawn to Jaxson's outstretched hand in front of me.The dazzling diamond on a ring placed on his palm made me fascinated.This is most likely my first encounter with a genuine diamond. It is true, as some claim, that its brilliance is blinding. This item is flawlessly clean, with no visible scratches. It's like crystal clear water, and the ambience couldn't hide the sparkle it shows even when it's dark. It's pretty amazing.“What are you staring at?” Jaxson grabbed my attention as he spoke again. I simply shifted my gaze back to him without saying anything.“–What’s with that face? Don’t you want to wear it?” With both eyebrows lifted in a curve, he questioned bluntly.“It's not that I don't want to wear it. It's just that…” I replied hesitantly before averting my gaze from his.Wearing anything like that doesn't seem right to me. And besides, what am I going to pay if I happen to lose th

    “Ms. Cattleya… Aren't you going to get up yet?”My brow furrowed in response to the unfamiliar voice I heard, but I remained my eyes firmly closed. My body is literally in excruciating pain right now. Especially my feet that I can barely feel anymore. It's even worse than walking around in high heels all-night. I gently twirled from my lying posture because of the stiffness that I felt on my left shoulder. I grant my hand to crawl and caress the soft bed as it feels so unusual. My nose crinkled when an unfamiliar smell sheathed my nose.“If I were you, Cattleya, I'd better get up and get myself ready before being called down to the garden.”Wait… that voice is familiar to me…“Aunt Elsie?” I jolted my eyes open as my palm flew over my head when I felt a minor pain.“Yes, Cattleya, you're not hallucinating.” She stated discreetly, “I am real. — And I came up here because she mentioned that you haven't shown an

    "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. Even though he doesn't like Liam, he insists on being friends

    "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

    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

    “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

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
