last update Last Updated: 2024-03-06 06:23:38

“Miss, the article is gaining engagement now.”

More than a week has passed since Ayla and Leila’s last sour encounter. She couldn’t forget how Julius’ furious eyes stared at the old mister who protected Leila from them. Julius has avoided her since that meeting which greatly frustrated her. She was sure that Leila was still in Julius’ mind.

Thinking about it made Ayla upset.

However…

The turn of events now seems to be favoring her.

“That’s good…”

Ayla snickered, scrolling through the wave of hate comments fluttering in Leila’s Ninstagram account.

[She’s probably the mistress of that old foreigner. You know how girls these days would want a foreigner to be their sugar daddy and fund their luxurious lifestyle.]

[I heard that Leila has quite a history of stringing a lot of men. I mean she’s pretty that’s why she has a lot of suitors. But a married man…? No way!]

[I can’t believe she would settle with an old man!]

[She wasted her talent to be a mistress!]

    Ayla reached the mall and waited at the entrance for Kimberly Yu. She’s in a good mood considering the damage that Leila’s been suffering. Her eyes had been glued on the screen of her phone, excitedly watching the development in the article that they anonymously posted. “Ayla, sweetie, what’s gotten you so busy on your phone?”Kimberly Yu’s sweet voice quickly caught Ayla’s attention. “Auntie Kim, you’re here!”Kimberly Yu, casually dressed in a simple white polo shirt and a pair of khaki shorts, smiled sweetly at Ayla. Her taupe Birkin handbag was styled with colorful twillies. Kimberly’s regal temperament made her look even more expensive than Ayla who was dressed in flashy designer items from head to toe. “Sweetie, I love your outfit!” She commented as she sized up Ayla’s whole get-up. Ayla blushed, feeling flattered by Kimberly’s compliment. “Aww, Auntie thank you! I tried dressing casually today since we’re just out for a stroll.” Kimberly smiled. “You’re so humble and sweet

    Warning: R18 content ahead!“F*cking stop it, Taylor!”The person being grilled as a mistress in the entire nation’s social media is currently seated on her office chair, breathless. Leila’s face, flushed as she stared at Taylor’s fingers.Taylor slumped on the floor, his back leaning against Leila’s office table. He was holding Leila’s legs apart with a smirk on his face. “Don’t you like it when I play you?”Leila’s underwear was thrown on the floor while her black pencil skirt was scrunched up to her waist. Her white shirt was unbuttoned, revealing her red lace brassiere. Taylor licked his fingers which were dripping wet. “How sweet, my dear.”Leila bit her lips. Her mind was empty and all that she could think of was Taylor’s cheeky smile. “F*ck you, Taylor.”Taylor laughed. His low and raspy laugh tickled Leila’s ears, keeping her glued to his poisonous grin. “Hahahaha, sure.” He started unbuckling his pants, freeing his angry rod. He rubbed his manhood, up and down. “See? I wi

    BzztBzztBzztBzztLeila glanced at Taylor’s phone continuously buzzing. Her brows furrowed upon seeing the app logo that kept on receiving notifications.‘Harriet? They’re still in contact?’By tough luck, she was able to see the name of the person who sent the message. Harriet Gomez, the actress that he brought last time, is still messaging. Even after the rumor that circulated about them, she still has her eyes locked on him. Harriet’s dating scandal with Taylor was quickly put to rest the moment Leila’s blurry picture with them appeared. ‘Whatever. I don’t care about their relationship.’She covered her face and body with the comforter and turned her back on Taylor. ‘What did I expect with a playboy like him?’‘He’s not going to magically become loyal to me just because we had s*x…’Just as she was about to drift to her sleep, an arm snaked around her waist. “Leila…” he groggily murmured. His body was warmly pressed on her back. ‘Why is he calling my name…?’It…It confused L

    “You really hooked up with him? And to this extent?!”Phyllis stared at her dear friend who was still at a loss for words. Leila has always shared her experiences with boys. Well, Phyllis made sure that she would because she didn’t want another Julius in her life. While so far, there’s not another Julius in her friend’s life, there is however a rake. “Leila, be honest with me… What happened?”The purple marks that were conspicuously placed on her neck were hard to miss. One look and anyone with a sane mind can discern what had happened to Leila. Adding in the scandal that Leila was suddenly caught in, these marks would undoubtedly fuel it. Phyllis exasperatedly sighed. “I don’t know what to do with you, Leila…”“If you’re not gonna talk, then just rest in my room. I’m sure you had a long day.”Phyllis led the weak Leila to her room and tucked her under the blanket. “Do you want to change clothes?”Leila shook her head. “Thank you…”Hearing her weak and hoarse voice made Phyllis extr

    Phyllis’ words made everything clear to Leila. Her request to Taylor stands valid. She was finally able to come to terms with her impulsive decision and take responsibility for it. And she promised herself that she would never fall for Taylor’s charms ever again!That was only one time.More than a month has passed since the malicious article about her was published. A lot has happened in that short amount of time. A lot of her clients who were on the waiting list chose to withdraw and look for a different designer. She heard that there is another designer that is opening their shop this month. Though she was extremely curious, she chose to just focus on her craft and isolate herself from social media. This was a much-needed break for Leila. For Leila, a person who was constantly glued to her phone, aimlessly scrolling through her news feed, it was tough. But this scandal unexpectedly rewarded her with peace that she was unable to get before. During this short period of isolation,

    It was as if the netizens had completely forgotten the harsh words they said to Leila over a month ago. They’re now congratulating her on her mother’s marriage. Though her picture with Theodore is blurry, people can easily recognize his silhouette. But even if a few people noticed this detail, her reputation was already tarnished. And so, Phyllis prepared a few NikNok videos about Leila’s scandal. She would post a video debunking the rumors about Leila and post it on Star Archives, a social media account that posts celebrity news. And since Leila is a well-known designer and the heiress of NM Group, her story is relevant enough to be posted.‘Phyllis is probably preparing the video to be posted…’She rose from her seat to quickly fix her things. She wanted to visit her friend, Phyllis, to see the progress of her video. She stuffed her iPad, phone, wallet, and her journal inside her Birkin 30 bag. She then headed straight to her apartment across the street. The convenient walk from he

    The next night, Phyllis uploaded a video about the maliciously accused heiress. Being branded as a mistress of an old man is not a good thing for any single woman in this conservative country. Many people would judge without knowing the whole story. Many will throw hurtful words after seeing a blurry picture. And so, Leila’s reputation would undoubtedly take a hit. Though Leila’s image is not as clean as Ayla’s, she still has a dignity she has to protect. Leila and Phyllis shared another round of Korean fried chicken while watching a movie. The moment that Phyllis pressed upload, the two cozily sat on the bean bag and ordered chicken. “Aren’t you going to check the video engagement?” Asked Leila as she dipped the cheese-coated chicken on the truffle dip.Phyllis shook her head as she savored the juicy chicken that she dipped in the sour cream dip. “It’s fine. I’m sure Taylor already gave his instructions to the influencers that he found.”Leila pondered on the approach that they ma

    The man has a sweet and clean look. His beard was cleanly shaved, revealing his smooth and chiseled jaw. Though his gaze was still as dark as she remembered, he certainly looked different from the man she met a month ago. “Taylor? Why are you here?”Leila stood at the side of their table, unwilling to sit beside Taylor. This was the first time that she saw him again after their deal. Though they talk about business, it never circles back to the flirtatious conversation they had before. And so seeing him right now is awkward for Leila. Taylor smiled. “I was invited by Zach, Lei. Why don’t you sit down?”Leila darted a sharp gaze at Cassiel, “Can I sit beside you, Cass? I missed you so I want to catch up.”Unable to sense the awkward atmosphere between Leila and Taylor, Cassiel smiled. “Sure!”“Zach, move to the other side so Lei can sit with me.”Zacharias, who was silently watching them, smirked. “I’m really comfortable in my seat here. I don’t want to move.”“Lei, you can sit now.

    Leila — “Mommy~” Lucienne Lown, my daughter, ran towards me with her arms spread wide. She was wearing a beautiful pink dress that I made for her paired with cute white sandals. “Lucy, don’t run fast!” Taylor Lown, my husband, anxiously ran after our daughter. Yes. Husband. We got married weeks before Lucy was born. Well, it was a shotgun civil wedding. I thought that instead of waiting until Lucienne was born, I just figured we do it before the due date. Of course, Taylor was all for it. He was so quick to arrange the most beautiful ceremony and reception I could ask for in that short amount of time. He did not dilly dally as he was afraid of me changing my mind. His words, not mine! I smiled as spread my arms, hugging Lucienne. “My light…” I kissed her curly hair. “Mommy, can I play with Esme?” Lucienne pointed at Esme, Rui’s daughter, who was walking around the beach with her older brother, Eon. “Sure, darling.” “Daddy, can you accompany Lucy down with Esme

    Leila — I got discharged from the hospital a week ago, and I am now staying in my mother’s house upon her insistence. After my parents found out about my pregnancy, they practically threatened me to go home with them. Well, it’s mostly just my mother who threatened me, but my father did worry about letting me live alone after that damn stabbing incident. Every now and then, Taylor would visit the house to talk to my dad about the progress of the investigation. And right now, he’s downstairs talking to them again. Whenever he’s around, I’d pretend to be busy so I have an excuse to not see him. However… “Miss, Ma’am Laura is calling for you. She said she needs you to come down now.” “Tell her I’m busy,” I answered. “But ma’am Laura said she’s not going to take no for an answer…” The maid frightfully ran downstairs, avoiding any of my rejection. “What do they need now?!” I can’t just go down… I can’t see him! But my mother might drag me down if I don’t go down there… Ais

    Taylor — “Thank you, handsome!” An old florist passed a beautiful bouquet of roses to me with a huge smile on her face. “I made it extra pretty for your wife,” she winked. With an image of Leila’s beautiful smile flashing in my mind, I unknowingly smiled. “Thank you. She loves roses.” The florist threw in a few petals of lilies on the side and said, “Well, take this lilies for your daughter.” “I— “Ah, ah, ah! It’s okay, don’t refuse! I want to put a smile on your daughter’s face as well. She must have been burdened on making your wife feel better.” “You should do better, handsome.” Confused with the florist’s vague words, I couldn’t help but frown. Still, it’s not like I have a daughter to make a big deal out of it. I walked out of the flower shop and headed back to my car to drive by Leila’s atelier. After everything that happened, perhaps I can formally court her this time. I’ve been so engrossed with work and helping with Leila’s case that I have put my love on hol

    Theodore intimately held Laura’s hands, and with a relieved smile, he said, “I’m so happy that the most important woman of my life gave me a chance to express my side.” “I fear of losing you both, especially now that I experienced such a blissful family life.” A surge of warmth emanated from the loving couple in front of Leila. Seeing how her mother’s messy love life unfolded in front of her eyes, she couldn’t help but feel a little bad. She realized that convincing her mother to divorce her father was completely out of line. Rather, she finally understood how deep their love developed. ‘Who am I to ruin such a beautiful couple?’ ‘I don’t even feel that hurt because of what he did… I know, and I can feel that he did it with good intentions.’ ‘The only thing I need to worry about is my family… My mother is already so old, she can figure out the life on her own.’ She instinctively touched her tummy, feeling the baby bump. ‘So long as I have my baby, I know it will all work out

    “Darling, you’re awake…” Theodore slowly walked up to the mother and daughter who were staring at him silently. “Did you hear from your mom already?” “About what? That I’m your biological daughter?” She passively asked. With the whirlwind of happenings the past day, everything is just overwhelming Leila. The neglectful father that she knew growing up turned out to not be her biological father. All her life she craved for her father’s affection only to be cast aside without knowing the reason why. It turns out, Allen Parker may have a reason for doing so. After all, not everyone can treat stepchildren as their own. ‘I don’t know if I should be relieved or what… This is so frustrating…’ Leila’s eyes were focused on Theodore who sat next to her mother. “Leila, darling…” “Why didn’t you tell us?” Theodore hesitated, his face looking a bit conflicted. “Darling, it’s complicated…” Laura sneered. “That’s what I asked him, Leila. He never explained why. If you didn’t urgentl

    “The baby seems very healthy, Mommy!” Said the doctor as she checked on Leila’s pelvic ultrasound on the screen. “But the baby bump is barely there, doc. What should I do?” With her slender body, she’s still concerned about how the bump that she wishes to see is barely visible. The OB-Gynecologist wiped the cold jelly from her belly and said, “Mommy, I can see a small bump. You’re just naturally fit. But if you observe your body, there are changes.” “I bet you had a really flat stomach before you got pregnant. Am I right?” Leila nodded. The doctor pointed at the visible bump in her lower abdomen area. “This bump right here is not there before right.” “But it’s not big yet… Is my baby getting all the nutrition she needs?” “Of course, mommy. It’s just that your tummy won’t grow that big yet. But it will definitely as your baby develops.” Leila reluctantly nodded. “Alright, doc. Thank you.” “No problem. Visit me whenever you have concerns and don’t miss your scheduled prenat

    Several weeks passed in a blur, and it was now Rui’s wedding. It was initially planned for her wedding dress to be loose so that it wouldn’t show her figure. But since she gave birth to her daughter, Esme a few weeks before the wedding. She was able to rest and spend more time with her newborn. The entire wedding preparations were handled by her husband, Chase. Leila expertly adjusted Rui’s gown to perfectly flatter her body. They were all satisfied with how the gown turned out. “Lei, where is Esme?” Rui in a beautiful chiffon gown asked Leila. The guests are having fun as they proceed with the wedding activities. “She’s sleeping in her room and Phyllis is looking after her,” answered Leila as she sipped on the sparkling soda that was handed by a server. Rui sincerely smiled, “Thank you, Lei.” Leila squeezed her hands, “Of course, I got you, my dearest.” Rui then went on with the activities with her husband, Chase. As one of the Maid of Honor, she was in charge of helping

    Leila was carefully driving her car back to her mother’s house after driving her friend, Phyllis to the airport. On their street, she saw a lot of cars parked near Phyllis and Zacharias’ house. “Are they media people…? That’s a lot…” The amount of people with big cameras waiting outside her friend’s house is insanely plenty. Just a few days ago, Phyllis’ husband was hospitalized because a crazy fan attempted to kidnap him. Now, people got a hold of this incident and were eager to get a scoop about it. “So that’s why Taylor told me not to go out…” “Well… No wonder that couple decided to flee the country.” She then parked her car in front of the house’s front entrance. She swung her keys as she walked inside her mother’s house. “Leila?!” Her mother jolted up from the couch as soon as she walked in. “What’s up?” “You! What did you do now?!” Confused, Leila asked, “What did I do…?” “First, you lied to Aunt Amanda about Rui’s wedding and impulsively went home. We’re not don

    KNOCK KNOCK Leila was drying her hair after a warm bath when she heard a knock on her door. “It must be him.” She hurried out of her room and opened the door. There, she saw Taylor standing outside, his whole body drenched from the rain. “Goodness, what happened to you?!” “Haha… It rained and I forgot to bring an umbrella.” “You didn’t drive?” “Why would I drive if there’s a convenience store nearby?” His hair is still dripping wet and the rainwater made Taylor’s dress shirt see-through. His lean body is showing because of this. His body was shivering from the cold, but still, he smiled as he handed over the plastic full of food that Leila requested. Feeling a little sorry for his appearance, she bit her lips. “Uh…” “Why don’t you come in and change?” She offered. Taylor beamed, “Sure!” He quickly took off his shoes and went inside. Leila could only watch him as he wore the fluffy pink bunny slippers he used before. ‘I mean, I’ll feel guilty if he gets sick aft
