Due to the hardships of life, Erina took on various jobs just to sustain her daily needs. She has been supporting herself alone ever since she left her father’s care. Her life was going well, but everything changed when she met a young man named Wayne Louie Anderson—a billionaire, a well-known figure in the business world, and the owner of prestigious resorts and casinos both in the Philippines and abroad. However, Erina had no idea about any of this. An incident pushed Wayne to conceal his true identity and pretend that he was missing. This led him to live under the same roof as Erina, allowing her to get to know him and eventually develop feelings for him. Will her feelings for him change once she discovers his true identity? Will she set aside her anger for the sake of love? Or will resentment and hatred prevail, leading her to give up on the man she loves?

Chapter 1: Out Of The Shadows

“ERINA ISABEL TUAZON POV”A strong slap landed on my face from Dad when he saw the report card I handed to him. I wasn’t surprised—I had already expected this to happen. The moment I saw my grades yesterday, I knew this was coming, so I wasn’t shocked when my father did this to me."You failed Filipino?! That’s the easiest subject, and you still flunked it? What kind of student are you? Do you even attend that class? I sent you to an expensive school so you could learn, and this is the kind of grades you show me? Do you really think I can accept this?" he yelled angrily before throwing my report card at me.I just lowered my head and wiped my cheek as tears started falling. I had promised myself I wouldn’t cry, but here I am now, my tears flowing like a river as my father continued his scolding.“I-I’ll make it up, Dad. It’s only the second quarter—”"I don’t care what quarter it is! You still failed, and there’s nothing you can do to change that!" he cut me off. "And stop making excu...

Chapter 2: One Disaster After Another
"ERINA ISABEL TUAZON POV"I'm just heading in, Faye. I woke up late. My alarm didn’t go off this morning," I spoke into my phone as I unlocked the chain from my bicycle.I always secure my bike like this because I don’t trust the people in this neighborhood. There are a lot of snatchers here—especially thieves. My apartment has a gate, but I still have to be extra cautious.[Are you serious, Erina? It’s already noon! Your boss is definitely going to lecture you again. Hurry up! You know he gets to work early, yet you still couldn’t wake up on time.]I just laughed at what my friend said. She seemed more stressed about it than I was. It wasn’t my fault that my phone alarm didn’t go off—or maybe I was just too exhausted that's why I didn't hear it?"I'm hurrying, but this bike you gave me isn’t cooperating," I joked, and I heard Faye sigh deeply on the other end of the line.This bike was her gift to me on my birthday last year. It has been my only mode of transportation to work every d

Chapter 3: Late Arrival, Lasting Impact
I could tell he was furious just by the way he looked at me. His glare alone made it clear that I had tested his patience. This was my first time being late, but I already knew I wouldn’t let it happen again. "How many months have you been working here?" he asked, his tone sharp and unyielding. I was confused by what he asked, but before I could process it, he stood up, leaned against his desk, and crossed his arms. "S-Seven months … sir," I stammered, feeling nervous. I instinctively took a step back as he moved closer to me. His face was unreadable, but I was sure he was angry. He was undeniably handsome, but his strictness at work was terrifying. "Then why aren’t you doing your job properly?! The rules were explained to you, but you keep forgetting them! Just because you're my cousin’s friend doesn’t mean I won’t scold you or that you can do whatever you want," he snapped, his voice laced with frustration. His words caught me off guard. I couldn't bring myself to respo

Chapter 4: When Pain Finds Its Voice
None of us dared to speak. I wasn't looking at him, but I'm sure he was looking at me now. I didn't want to talk to him, but he asked Boss Yuki for permission, so I had no choice but to leave the counter and go to him. But until now, we still haven't acknowledged each other and he hasn't started talking yet. As if I'm going to talk to him. Over my dead body! But I looked at him when he placed something in front of me. An envelope, and I know it's filled with money. "Take it, it will help with your daily expenses," he said, and suddenly, my mood shifted. He did this last week too. He handed me money, but I refused to take it. My brother never learns. He knows I won't accept it and that he won't get anything from me, yet he keeps coming here and trying to give me money. "We're just going in circles, Kuya. Aren't you tired of this?" I said in frustration, crossing my arms. "No, I'm not." "Then why?" "Because you're my sister!" Sister, my ass! I suddenly smiled bitter

Chapter 5: A Moment That Changed Everything
"What the heck?! Why am I so unlucky today?" I said, almost in tears, as I stepped out of the restaurant. And suddenly kicked the trash can I saw out of sheer frustration. The people who saw what I did were shocked, but I didn't care anymore. It's a good thing I vented my anger on the trash can and not on someone else. And I almost rolled on the ground here in the street just like I did earlier. Because the manager scolded me for delivering the food to the wrong table. The customer confronted me and scolded me until they called my manager. "Why is this the food you served us? We didn't order this, miss," said a lady, but I could see the disappointment in her eyes. I suddenly got nervous and immediately looked at the list I was holding. And that's when I realized that I had indeed gone to the wrong table to deliver the food. Table 8 is the one I went to, and the food on the table is not on their list. "I apologize, ma'am .. I think I just overlooked what was written—" "Are y

Chapter 6: Two Strangers, One Roof
"Sit down first…" I said as I slowly guided him to sit on the small sofa.I immediately let out a breath once he was seated, but I made sure not to let him notice. He was tall, big body, and well-built—completely different from my physique. It felt like I had just carried a sack of rice because of how heavy he was. Not that I was complaining, I was just exhausted from helping him get here to my apartment.Yes, to my apartment because he refused to be taken to the hospital. I insisted, especially since he had a wound on his forehead that needed to be treated by a doctor. But he was adamant about not going and insisted that I bring him to my place instead. I had no choice but to agree. I couldn’t just leave him alone, or I’d be the one to blame if something worse happened to him."I’ll just get my first-aid kit," I informed him before heading straight to my room."Tss, why did you even bring him here, Erina?" I muttered to myself in frustration. I was talking to myself again out of shee

Chapter 7: A Debt of Guilt
I feel like crying or screaming out of sheer frustration. I don’t even know why I suddenly agreed to his request to stay here in my apartment.I suddenly lost my choice because of the pity I felt for him. I don’t want to kick him out, especially since he doesn’t remember anything, and who knows what might happen to him if I do. On top of that, he refuses to let me take him to the hospital or even the police station. I’m going crazy trying to figure out how to get him to leave."Erina, calm down. You’ll get through this. He did say that once his memory returns, he’ll leave," I told myself, letting out a deep sigh.I’m here in the kitchen, cooking dinner for the two of us. Luckily, there was still half a portion of pork left in the fridge, so I decided to cook that instead. It would be embarrassing to serve him canned food—what if he doesn’t even eat that? Just by looking at his face, his appearance, and the way he dresses, it’s obvious that he comes from a wealthy life.That’s another

Chapter 8: Setting the Trap
*ERINA ISABEL TUAZON'S POV"Are you serious? You let him stay in your apartment?" Faye asked in shock when I told her what happened yesterday and that I let Louie stay at my place.I slowly nodded in response, and her jaw dropped. She couldn’t believe what I did because she knows I don't usually agree to favors right away."It took a whole month before you let me stay at your apartment temporarily. But that guy—who you don’t even really know—you let him stay just like that? That’s kind of hurtful, you know?" she said with irritation, then rolled her eyes at me and crossed her arms."I'm sorry, but your situations are different," I quickly replied, but that only made her more annoyed."Wow, are you actually defending him? Erina, I’m your friend here," she snapped, then took a sip of her coffee. I couldn’t help but laugh silently and shake my head at her reaction. Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to tell her about this right now."I was already stressed from my exam earlier, but your st

Chapter 9: Sudden Recognition
It felt like my temples suddenly started aching because of my landlady’s nonstop nagging here at the apartment. I don’t even know how she found out about the incident, but with how sharp her hearing is, she’ll know about anything in no time.It wasn’t even eight o'clock when she arrived just to scold me. Her voice was so loud it felt like I was going deaf, but I had no right to complain because she owns the place. And even though what happened wasn’t intentional, she still had every right to be angry.“Oh my goodness! These materials are expensive, but you didn’t even take good care of them. What’s wrong with you, Erina? Why weren’t you more careful? What are you even going to replace this with? You’re already late in paying rent, and now you’ve damaged my apartment too,” I heard her rant.I let out a deep sigh and instinctively held my head. It was still so early, but I was already feeling stressed because of her.“Tsk! A sermon this early, lord,” I muttered in annoyance as I messed

Chapter 10: When Truth Strikes
What happened there? Why did she suddenly panic? She wasn’t like that earlier, before Louie showed up.Could it be...?“Do you two know each other?” I asked, looking at Louie in confusion.He was surprised and confused by my question, but I didn’t mean anything by it. It’s just that I was shocked by Madam Dolores’ reaction when she saw Louie.“E-Erina... I don’t remember us meeting before. I don’t recognize her face,” Louie responded, but his expression still held some confusion.Why did I even ask if he knew Madam Dolores? He doesn’t remember her at all. I can be such an idiot sometimes and forget things so quickly.“Sorry, I was just curious about the—uh, never mind. Don’t think about it, it might just confuse you. Um, please don’t take what I’m about to say the wrong way.”I stopped and waited for his response. But he nodded in agreement, so I figured it would be okay to tell him, since he’s staying here temporarily and he’s new to the place."Next time, if you want to go out or pl
