"I think Laurence had been caught in an accident," she replied while trying to call his phone, but it is out of the coverage area. She dialed her manager's number.
"Hello, Cali. You need to go to St. Fausten Hospital," says Remedios.
"I'll be there," she replied before hitting the end button. She turned her gaze to Perci to asked, "How long will it take to go to the Fausten?"
"Probably, an hour and a half, it depends on the traffic," he replied.

‘Who is it this time? They really loved meddling in my private life. I need to find this imbecile who is trying to mess with me and my career. I’m not going to watch and stay still,’ says her eager mind. "I must rest first..." Her eyes had decided to close and live on a peaceful night. However, there is no telling if the night would be a peaceful one or a chaotic night or a time of dark night; the crimes and illicit affairs slid like debris floating in the night tide, under doors and window latches, into streets and windows. She received a message from Laurence, asking her to go to the Dolomite beach. The beach was located in Manila. It is quite not too far since she had a car. She wonders why Laurence wanted to see her at this hour. Her heart and man told her that his man missed him so much. She put on a light baby pink lip tint

She tears the paper into shreds. "You'll pay for threatening me like this. Let's see until you are hiding in the shadows. Sooner or later, I will found out who you are,"says Cali while starting her engine and headed to the set. "There she is. Cali is here, producer." "Good morning, ma'am Cali."Most of the staff had greeted her. "Nice working with you again,"says Alona. She smiled and greeted her back. "Yeah, it's nice seeing you still have commercials. It would be better if you can work with me on my upcoming drama. Do you want me to introduce you to the producer?"

Cali opened the door and found Laurence staring at the window. Laurence glanced at the window and smiled when he saw Cali. "What are you doing here?"Laurence asks as his smile fades away when he notices Perci behind Cali. "He wanted to talk with you," says Cali. She is looking at Perci as if her eyes are telling, 'Don't-you-dare-flirt-with-my-boyfriend.'Sheclearedher throat. "I'm watching you," she added. "I need you t

he opened the door and tried to check if there was a yellow envelope again. The entire room is black as if no one is around."Calix? Where are you?" Cali turned on the light and found out that she really is alone."Where could that bi-sexual brother of mine have been?" She went straight to the sofa and threw her back on the soft pillow. She opened the television to watch K-drama. "How I wish to work with Korean actors and actresses. I'm quite a popular local actress, but I want to be popular internationally too." She dialed a pizza for her dinner, and now patiently waiting for the food to arrive is all she had to do. Her phone rang and when he checked the dial's contact... "What do you need aga

Cali woke up and found Perci sleeping on the couch opposite her sofa. She stood in front of him and smiled."He is not that bitchy gay after all. I guess I need to treat you to samgyup later." She went to the door to find her phone that she accidentally dropped when that sasaeng fan harassed her. She found it underneath the shoe rack. "Well, thanks to Mr. nitpicky, I am actually indebted with that gay,"she murmured while heading to the bathroom. She showered and got herself done for the talk show."It's been a while since the producer of talk shows took interest in me. I guess it's all thanks to the CEO's connection. I guess the contract is really a good choice." After getting dressed, she h

Days had passed already, and Cali's career was quite back on track. She even signed an exclusive guesting at musicals of boy band Moonstar18. Today is the scheduled filming of the MV teaser. Moonstar18 is a boy group that is Filipino pop. They are the most famous local boyband which collaborates with Kpop artists. "Are you really fine coming here to the filming site?"Cali asked while looking at Laurence. "I'm fine. Don't you think being your manager is actually an advantage for us? We can always see each other just like today." Laurence smiled as if he is the luckiest man for dating Cali. "Thanks to that nitpicky we are able to keep dating. You are pretty close with Perci these days, huh?" "We are not really close

"Things are getting serious. I can't let this pass, Cali." Calix is furious after seeing a headless rotten rat together with Cali's photograph. "It's pretty normal for a woman in the entertainment industry to receive such treatment, "Perci asked."However, this is getting worse than I could imagine. The person who sent this must have a deep grudge in you." "Cali, do you have a suspect in mind?" "I think I know who this person is. Stay back because I will deal with this alone,"says Cali while greeting her teeth, and her feast had formed into solid steel. "You don't need to get yourself involved with this matter. I can deal with this alone. Can you clean t

"You think you can make a fool out of me? You are the one who resents me the most. I have nothing to lose now, Cali."The woman took a gun and pulled the trigger straight to Cali."Begone!" "You bitch! I will chase you to hell, Julia!"Cali was holding Laurence's body. She was able to dial 911 and Perci. Perci immediately rushes to the hospital when he hears Cali sobbing. When he came, the reporters were already vigil outside the hospital. He found Cali sitting outside the operating room.He embraced Cali, it was an automatic reflex within Perci. She's shaking while sobbing. "It's all my fault, Perci."She was crying as if Laur

A little misunderstanding can destroy everything because it's poisonous that it makes us forget the most beautiful moments we shared. But life is a rollercoaster.

The CEO's Lavender Marriage TCLM#123: Why are you hesitating?
"I am the father of the twins, right?" he asked while keeping his eyes on her without blinking. Cali looked away and didn't say a thing. She was paralyzed to the spot, the menacing aura of Perci holding him in a tightening grip. "Damn it! Answer me!" She jolted when Perci shouted and threatened her with dead eyes. She spits on him, but Perci didn't mind it. He grinned and wiped his face on her clothes. "Why are you hiding my child from me?!"He is pinning her much more aggressively than before. She laughed and met his cold eyes, "Stop hallucinating!"

He went to the gym to keep his body in shape. After his exercise, he changed into comfortable red t-shirt and humble jersey shorts. He walked Perree into the lobby and kept on barking at Cali.She glared at him while the other two receptionists were admiring Perree's cuteness. "I rarely see you these days sir since ma'am Reese checked out,"says one of the receptionists. He flaunted a Colgate smile that irritates Cali. She rolled her eyes and rested her head on the chair. Her ears are with them but she acted disinterested. "Why is Perree barking on you, Cali? He looks excited to see you." Cali is uneasy because Perci might bring their past which she had hidden and

The mirror invites Perci to see his soul and the condition of his heart, to look past physical features. He sees nothing but a man in his 40's, single and broken. 'I wish I had not met you again.' He broke the mirror; it was the last mirror in his room because the rest is broken. A crack runs across the glass, finding the weaknesses that were once small. From a perfect mirror to something that is unrecognizable. He watches each fragment fly outward until they lie still yet vicious on the Marmol floor. Breaking glass has become his art and comfort. There is nothing more broken than his heart. Those fragments are nothing compared to his heart. He watched them shatter and release just a fragment of the rage that keeps him upright. He stood up and stared at the city lights from the glass wall whil
The CEO's Lavender Marriage TCLM#120: What if...?
It has been a week since she received a message from Henry. She wondered what happened to that guy. There is no flower nor good morning from him. She shrugged her shoulders and focused on the kids instead. Today is her rest day, and she has no plan but to spend it with her angels. "Mommy, can you tell us about daddy? We still don't know his name, and we have not seen any picture of him,"says Perxeus while coloring his activity. "Mommy, the teacher told us to describe our daddy, but we don't know anything about him," Calici seconded. Cali's eyes darted around, panicking, looking for a way to evade their question. Her eyes widened in alarm, unable to look away no matter how much she wished to distract and not answer the
The CEO's Lavender Marriage TCLM#119: I wish I had never met you.
"Mom, your phone is vibrating. A guy named Henry texted you a good morning,"says Perxeus while holding her phone. She snatched it and messed up her son's hair."Who is that guy, mom?" "Are you replacing dad because he is with papa Jesus?"Calici pouted and crossed her arms. "Of course not, cupcakes. He is a good friend of mine. I'll introduce him to both of you, soon."She kissed their forehead. That guy who saved her daughter is Henry. Yeah, she finally asked his name. That guy seems like a very private person. Well, she cannot blame him, he is an effin billionaire that is why he is hiding his identity. They had a good talk yesterday, and he is a gentleman? —

The next day, he decided to visit Reese at her unit. He made sure that Cali was on her shift. He only wants to see her, even for a stolen second. He glanced at the information desk and prepared to be hurt again when their eyes met, only for Cali to look away.The same pain lingers on his heart; whether Cali is glaring at him or not looking at all, nothing much changes. He walked past her and went straight to the elevator. He glanced at Reese and thought that everyone around him need not know about Cali. "Smile," says Reese. She uses her two fingers to move Perci's lips. "I’m not in the mood, I came here because Liah and Albert want to throw a party at your place." "Was it because of the receptionist named Cali?” He looked away an

Perci was busy with C.M Industry, but Cali still visits his mind often. Just like today, he had stopped reviewing the ratings of the company. He stared at their scratched wedding pictures; no matter how many times he folds it and throws it, he only ends up picking it again. When the investigator sent it to him, he printed it and kept it. He closed his eyes and hurt himself again by stabbing Cali's last word to him. It hurts more than a stab from a sharp object. Cali's words are not just a knife but also a poison that is slowly killing him. "It's because I do not want to cross paths with you ever again. So, please leave me alone. Forget that we had been together for almost two years." He has this misty-eyes that is hiding a tear which he does not want to be fre

Reese had a good night's sleep thanks to Perci’s effort in giving a comfortable place to stay. She stood up when her phone rang. Ceci is on the other line, obviously to ask if Perci did come to the airport to escort her. "Reese, did Perci escorted you?" "Yes, Auntie."Her hunch is right. "How are you guys doing?” "We had a small talk yesterday and he told me that he used to marry a woman named Cali but they had separated six years ago." The other line was filled with dead air until Ceci broke the silence."Yes, that woman he married eloped with another man.”
