I angrily turned off the cellphone when I received a call from the producer who promised me there on a project. He said that he would no longer take me as the singer for the film. He didn't tell me the exact reason. But I’m sure it’s because of the issue!
All day, I was just in the suite. Luke left for Manila at two o'clock. He strictly instructed Rita not to let me go out alone because someone might recognize me outside.
The news of Zeus' death right now is all over the Philippines. And since Lyka points to me as the reason for that, I am the one most blamed.
I am the talk of the town now, the villain in the eyes of many. I have received different types of criticism on social media. Some were creating memes with my face. Some were even threatening me to be really below the belt.
I am not guilty. I'll never be.
That was my latest tweet in twitter. But the people didn't believe it. I received many hate comments. I even saw the trending p
I texted a bodyguard and was told where I was. A few moments later, they arrived. I was reprimanded for a while for their sudden disappearance. Their reason? He took a shower for a while. They sewed at the same time, right? I didn't buy the alibi but I don't have a choice but to let it pass.Sage was left on the patio of the casita and watched us leave. I didn't look back and walked fastly.I don't know if what he did earlier was a true act of generosity or he only wanted to change my mind about the ad campaign. But does he still need me there? With my stained name, I don't think I'll be an effective endorser at this point. As long as the issue doesn't subside I'm sure it will only take criticism. I can't risk the resort's credibility. One more thing, I don’t want him to be a client!"Oh, ma'am! Where are you from? Sir Luke called! I slipped and said I wasn't with you so that's why, I'm so angry!" said Rita when I
"What else are you doing? Why aren't you leaving?" I tried so much to maintain a cold demeanor. But when I remembered I had no right to tell him that because he was the owner of the resort, I regretted my words.He looked down, looking so bruised at my words. Damn it! Annoyingly, I just want to take back what was said and let him stay!"Oo nga pala. I can't boss you around since you're one of the owners here. But as a guest, I demand privacy."Maybe that's okay than just letting him go! Of course I'm not as heartless as him!"Alright. I'll leave ..." he surrendered. But he didn't leave right after he said that. With his eyes directed at me, he slid his hand on his pocket. He pulled the phone out of there. He typed something.He stared at the screen as he typed. It was quick. Then, he turned to me again. I raised my brow. He didn't speak anymore and just turned away. I watched his
I scratched my forehead and bit my lower lip. I didn't imagine this situation could become worse than I imagined."You? Are you okay? Do you have wounds? I'm going to see you, Luke! You don't have a family there so–""Don't be stubborn, K! Rose will come here later so don't worry. Rose has a powerful family behind her and there are many bodyguards so she can't be approached. You're the one I'm worried about because besides you are the closest to me , that rightful actor has been mad at you for a long time! "The possible danger made me feel so much horrified. I suddenly remembered what had happened to me before. I got cold."I'm confused, Luke ... Why did they plan to kill him? What's their relationship?""They are a couple, K. All I heard was they were arguing about the incident. Lyka asked if the scene was very clean and made sure there wasn't any evidence that Antonio ki
"K, what did I hear from Rita that you plan to leave there the other day? Are you out of your mind ?!" Luke sighed that night when he called.I swallowed the sensei and leaned against the headrest of the bed. When I returned to the suite earlier, Rita immediately followed me and told her that we would be leaving the other day. And now, the news reached my hot-tempered manager."Can you please calm down? That won't improve your condition. How are you? Did they treat you well there? How about the security? Did you make sure it was tight and-""I appreciate your concern but I am very fine here, Kaia! My concern is you! I beg you, don't leave the resort first! That's the safest place for you!"I couldn't help but stare at the last thing he said. Sage just told me that earlier. How does he make sure of that? He doesn't even know him! If he only knew what I went through at the hands of that man I'm sure he
"Why are you doing this? Did Luke promise you a great amount? But even so, I know you don't need anyone's money. Now, I can't see the point why you are meddling with my life. Can you , just let me leave peacefully! And if anything happens when I leave here, I will take full responsibility of my decision- ""Shut up!" he angrily cut me off.My lips parted, taken aback by his harsh words.With dark, brooding eyes, he withdrew his hold on the swivel chair and walked towards me. His jaw was clenched in a brutal manner as his precise steps became closer and closer. I was overwhelmed by the darkness of his eyes and felt the softening of his knees. I want to run but I can't move my legs.When he confronted me I was forced to look up. With our small distance, I can see the unfathomble rage in his raven eyes. Anger only flared up in his eyes as he looked at me more closely.Is that anger for me? I'm not sure ..."Do you think I'll let anything bad ha
"I'm sorry ..." he whispered hardly. His face was buried in my neck and every breath was deep.I don’t know what to feel. Hearing his voice, screaming in grief and misery made me burn. I wanted to push him and remind myself how much I hated him but my whole body seemed paralyzed. It was as if I found tranquility in my chaos ... security in the middle of my battles, a glimpse of hope in my darkness.Although I was able to smile and laugh over the years, those were all pale happiness. Not pure. But the warmth his embrace gave me didn't feel like any other. And it’s funny to think that no matter how much I’ve hated him these past few years, when he hugged me, all I wanted to do was to hug him back. To feel more of him. Like satisfying myself on something I didn't know I would crave.My tears fell. I have lost strength."So, you admit ..." I whispered angrily. His sorry means that he really fooled me. And it hurts to think that's exactly wha
We passed many trees. I can see that this way is just close to that part of El Fuego with the Mongreco's lands. I feel like I’m going back there. It's been ages and I can vividly remember the things that happened to me there. But I will never forget the beautiful scenery there. The amazing people, too. And maybe I won't be able to go back there again. I don't have any reason to do so, anyway. One more, I will only remember Sage. Not that I want to erase him on my memories, though.Thinking of his confession earlier, I just found it ridiculous. I can’t take that seriously. A man with such caliber, blindly loving me all these years? If maybe he would say he was guilty of what happened to me so he is helping now I would still believe. But that? It's just hard to believe.I admit, I was crazy for him on my younger years. I was blinded of the thought that I like Livius. Even the truth is, I'm really attracted to Sage. I was just too in denial at first, cause I alway
The hills around, fields, trees and the sunny afternoon made me feel nothing but familiarity and placidity. I never thought I would be able to come back here again. Especially in this situation. I have always been a fan of nature. It's simplicity and calmness. So despite the problems involved, I couldn’t help but feel comfortable with what I saw. As if I am now at my own peace. At my safe haven.Standing in front of the lofty mansion, I turned to my companion. My fears came back when I saw the continuous dripping of his blood."Aren't you going to the hospital? It's not just glass that's the reason, Sage. You got shot!" I said hysterically because I was sure he would say he would be the one to treat there even if he needed a doctor."Is there a hospital near here? Or maybe, a clinic? What if that doesn't stop the bleeding-" my voice trembled so I stopped midway."It's just a touch. I will fix this. Going to a public place is dangerous for you," he s
