"Let's get back together, Mandy," Andrew mumbled as he stared down at Mandy.
Mandy smirked as she removed Andrew's arms from her waist. "I already told you that I don't want to get back to you."
"Don't you want to give our son a complete family?" Andrew asked.
"Don't use my son for your personal interest, Mr. Bradford." Mandy retorted.
Andrew's brows creased. "It's not for my personal interest."

A man with elegance and a strikingly handsome face entered a grand cuisine and walked straight to the area specially reserved for him. He was wearing a cocktail slim fit tailored dark suit paired with a dress shirt, a slim tie, and polished black shoes. He sat down with flair as he splendidly stretched his left arm and looked at his watch. His exquisite brown eyes darted from side to side. He moistened his lips and swallowed hard. He took a deep breath as he was starting to get impatient already. It was now exactly seven in the evening but his date was still out of sight. His knitted eyebrows released a cold aura emanating a powerful brooding air that outmoded the warm atmosphere of the cuisine. Andrew Bradford is the most perfect man that a woman would
It was exactly six o’clock when Marco picked her up. He drove off to the countryside where the seafood restaurant is located. The place looks romantic for couples but not for Mandy.Mandy and Marco sat beside each other. After they ordered a few dishes, Marco turned to her.“Mandy, I think it’s time to take our relationship to the next level.” Marco stared at her with his expressive round eyes.Mandy was stunned. She was aware that Marco does not want to enter into a serious relationship too which was one of the reasons why she dated him. She thought that it would not be hard to dump him.&n
Two months passed by swiftly.Mandy has graduated from college and her wedding with Andrew is getting nearer.Mandy told her mom that she would like to meet Andrew before their wedding which made her mom feel glad.Janeth Collins thought that Mandy wanted to make it up with Andrew before their wedding. She has no idea of what Mandy was really thinking.Andrew felt glad as well when Janeth Collins informed him that Mandy would like to meet him. He agreed to meet her at ten in the morning at the restaurant locate
Mandy nervously rang the bell and as soon as the door opened,“Surprise!!!”Mandy was extremely perplexed when she saw all of her friends. Aside from Charm, Bel, Kat, and Rose were also there. “What’s going on?”She only realized what was happening when happily Charm pulled her inside the room and saw the decorations.Her friends prepared a surprise bridal shower for her!“Charm, you silly girl! Do you know how worried I was when
“Simon, what are you doing?” Mandy struggled to remove his arms around her.But Simon ignored her, he just looked at her eyes like searching through the deepest part of her soul.“You don’t want to marry that man, that's why you accepted this dare, isn’t it? You want your groom to be mad at you so that he would initiate to cancel the wedding, am I right?” He asked to confirm his speculation.Simon hit the nail on the head. However, Mandy does not want to admit it to him.“You’re saying nonsense. Let go of me!”
Days passed by so quickly.It’s now Mandy and Andrew’s wedding day.The wedding ceremony was held in the most prestigious hotel owned by Andrew. It was fully booked and closed to the public. So many respected individuals and families attended the event from their relatives to friends and business partners.The decorations of the hotel captivated the eyes of every guest. The ceiling, aisle, and the stage full of white and pink roses alternately arranged were so breathtakingly beautiful. It was so grand that in one glimpse you would know that the groom and bride came from wealthy families.
Andrew’s face turned sour when he looked at their clothes damped with vomit.Janeth Collins immediately got a handkerchief from her purse.“Oh, I’m so sorry Andrew, it was her first time to drink like that.” She said as she handed the handkerchief to him.Andrew put down the sleeping Mandy on the backseat and immediately took off his coat. Then, he took the handkerchief from Janeth Collins but instead of wiping his wet clothes, he used it to clean the wedding gown of Mandy that was stained and wet by her vomit.Janeth Collins smiled at the
Andrew opened the suitcase and took her pants."How could you tell that this is a kind of clothing? Look at these torn jeans." He said as he extended his hand holding the jeans towards Mandy.Mandy grabbed her favorite jeans. "It's not torn! It is called ripped jeans! Don't you have any idea about fashion?"The servants who were listening to their quarrel laughed inwardly.Andrew blushed. "Whatever you want to call that, you cannot use that anymore.""What?! And who
"Let's get back together, Mandy," Andrew mumbled as he stared down at Mandy. Mandy smirked as she removed Andrew's arms from her waist. "I already told you that I don't want to get back to you." "Don't you want to give our son a complete family?" Andrew asked. "Don't use my son for your personal interest, Mr. Bradford." Mandy retorted. Andrew's brows creased.

After breakfast, Apollo excitedly waited for his dad on the veranda. He was seated on the steel chair, looking at the gate from time to time. However, it's been thirty minutes already, but Andrew hadn't arrived. "Mom, why isn't daddy coming yet?" Apollo asked his mom with gloomy eyes. He was thinking if his dad was really not coming. Mandy crouched before her son and held both of his shoulders. "He's on the way already, sweetheart." She mumbled and gave him an assuring smile even though deep inside, she was disappointed with Andrew. It's the first time that he would meet his son, but he's late.
"NO!" Mandy hardly denied it. She hated Andrew to the core. She would not let him know that Apollo was his son. Suddenly, Lucas Cruise came and greeted Andrew. "Mr. Bradford, I'm pleased to see you here." Andrew shook hands with Mr. Cruise. "Mr. Cruise, I was glad to finally meet you." He uttered with a warm smile. Lucas Cruise and Andrew have ongoing communication. He secretly called Andrew when he learned that another group of men defended Mandy from the attack during her stay in the Philippines. He was certain that it was him. Although they hadn'
Two weeks later. The preparation for the development of Amanda Island started. Mr. Brown couldn't accept that Mandy would be the top investor for the project. Thus he doubled his investment after the Investor Dinner Party. "Mr. Brown, what do you think of the blueprints?" Andrew asked after their first collaboration meeting. According to the drawings, they planned to build loft garden villas for the guests who wanted privacy, like newly-wed couples to spend their honeymoons. There would also be a two-story hotel to accommodate exclusive guests for mini gatherings, team buildings, weddings, and the like. "It's great! I believe this island will be famous worldwide." Mr. Brown responded enthusias
Mandy was so anxious while waiting for the doctor to come out of the operating room. Marco lost a lot of blood and needed immediate surgery as the bullet hit his spine. After a while, Andrew arrived and immediately looked for Mandy. After he learned what happened earlier, he rushed to the hospital. He was so worried about Mandy. "Thank God you're fine," Andrew mumbled as he hugged Mandy. Mandy pushed him. "Do I look fine? Marco is in the operating room because of me." She muttered as tears welled up in her eyes. She was blaming herself for what happened. If she insisted not to proceed with their itinerary that day, it would not happen to Marco.
“No!” Mandy screamed as she opened her eyes and found that she was in her room. Her body had soaked with her own sweat.She sighed. She’s thankful that it’s only a nightmare. However, she couldn’t go back to sleep. She checked the time. It's two in the morning. She felt thirsty, so she got up from the bed and went to the kitchen to drink.Since it's too early, she went back to her room and tried to get more sleep, but her heart was still beating so fast. Hence, she tried to calm down using the breathing app on her phone. After ten minutes, she closed her eyes again as she started to feel sleepy again.Just a few minutes later, she
Andrew included the private island on the list of locations that he wanted to develop. He thought that it's about time to give that wonderful island the chance to be recognized in the whole world. Nonetheless, he would still maintain its exclusivity for a family vacation and not be open to the public. Obviously, Andrew loved and valued the island so much. He treasured and cherished all his moments together with Mandy there. He also used to go there every year on the exact date of their honeymoon to celebrate the memories. Fortunately, he saved all their pictures together as a remembrance of that wonderful part of his life. After fifteen minutes, the names of the investors willing to invest appeared on the screen. Megan and Mr. Brown were shocked when Mandy's name appeared to b
Mandy could see how the attackers stepped backward to escape. But it's too late. Her bodyguards quickly seized them all. It was the plan. They would start to cut off the tails of the enemy. And to do that, they need to catch the accomplices, for them to confess everything, including all the illegal activities of Mr. Brown. For the past five years, they barely got information about Mr. Brown's illegal activities. He was very cautious with all the people he would trust. Thus, they came up with the plan to strike first. They need to know everything about the enemy and expose their true colors. Moreover, they need to get back the wealth that Mr. Brown stole from Lucas Cruise. Mandy was aware that there were still spies lurking in the dark. She was certain t
Mandy glanced at Marco, who was busy on his phone. She walked to the balcony and continued to talk to her son. She explained that his wish was not as easy as he imagined. However, Apollo was insistent. Mandy had no choice but to promise that on his seventh birthday, she would grant his wish. Luckily, Apollo finally accepted it. Then, she talked to her dad for a while before she hung up the call. In the evening, Mandy and Marco went out of their suite for dinner. They chose the seafood restaurant nearby as Mandy was craving seafood since she was not able to eat last night. "What do you like?" Marco asked Mandy. They were sitting beside each other while looking at the menu.
