Nico quickly headed to the trash can to throw away the flowers, but his sister stopped him. "Hey, hey, what are you doing? Why are you throwing these?" Nathalie swiftly snatched the flowers from his brother. Nico tried to grab the flowers back, but Nathalie quickly moved away. "Brother, please..... These are mine, why are you throwing them without my consent?"

"Hey Nathalie, don't tell me you're okay with Nigel giving you all this stuff. Be honest, do you still like him? Are you planning on getting back with him?" Nico's tone mixed with irritation. He didn't even notice that they were already drawing attention from the employees.

"It's not like that, bro...." Nathalie replied. "My point is, it's not right for you to interfere with my decisions. I'll decide whether or not to accept what he's giving me, got it?"

"I don't know what to say to you. You want to decide for yourself? then go ahead!" Nico turned his back on Nathalie and left. As he stepped into the elevator, he called his a

    Andy was standing off to the side, casually glancing at his boss who'd been in front of the mirror for a while now. His gaze drifted to the bed, which was covered in high-end suits. He'd picked out some of them, while Nigel had chosen the others. Nigel had asked for his help, but always ended up rejecting his suggestions.Andy couldn't take it anymore, so he cleared his throat. "Uh, sir... You've been trying on suits for ages, and you still can't decide?" Nigel didn't respond, too busy with what he was doing."Sir, isn't it just a meeting with Andeza's enterprises? Do you really need to dress up that formally? It's not like you're going to attend some grand gala or anything." This time, Nigel looked at him, but Andy felt a surge of fear. "Uh, don't get me wrong, sir. I'm just worried that you might intimidate the people you're meeting with later because of how you're dressed.""What do I care?" Nigel replied nonchalantly without even turning to face his assistant. He was now

    Nathalie immediately snapped back to normal, ignoring Andy's question. "Why did you ask about that?" Andy carefully looked at Nathalie, worried that he might offend her by his question. "Nothing ma'am, I'm just curious... But if you don't want to tell me, that's okay." "Have you asked your boss about it? What did he say?" "Uh, I haven't asked him yet. You know my boss, he's kinda scary. I don't want to get in trouble and have my salary deducted again.""I'm not gonna deny that our breakup wasn't good. I just won't say who was at fault between us, but I can say that I don't regret marrying him, even though..." Nathalie gave a faint, bitter smile. "Even though I knew we were impossible from the start."Nathalie walked ahead, while Andy slowed down his pace. As he thought about Nathalie's last statement, he finally realized who was to blame for their breakup.When they return to the meeting room, Andy's perception of his boss suddenly changed.

    "What's wrong, Dad?" Asked the blonde girl, who looked like in her 20's as she noticed her father's bad mood when he arrived home. The man had come with his daughter to the country, and since they were foreigners and had just arrived, they were renting a place. He waved his hand dismissively, indicating that he didn't want her to bother him.The girl just shrugged off her father's temper and continued with what she was doing. She headed to the living room and resumed watching a yoga instructor on TV, following along with the moves. The old man sat down on the sofa, feeling a bit worn out. "This country's hot climate is crazy, I feel like being roasted!" He turned to his daughter, intending to ask her to get him a cold drink, but his gaze landed on her fit physique instead. His eyes narrowed as a sudden thought struck him, he quickly concocted a plan.Just a while ago in the meeting room at Andeza Enterprises, he was seething with anger as Armando humiliated him in front of everyone

    Nico stared at Nigel straight in the eye, but the latter didn't even flinch. He instead staring right back at him. Nico's head was slightly tilted upwards since his former brother-in-law was taller than him, he could only reach up to his eye level. "You really got some nerve saying that, huh? Have you forgotten how you've hurt my sister? How you cheated on her for some itchy woman out there? And how she almost died because of you?"Nigel's defenses seemed to weaken a bit after hearing that."I haven't forgotten, and believe it or not, I still regret it to this day even though she said she's already forgiven me.""Heh, forgiven? And you think we'll forgive you just like that? Listen, just because you're helping our company out now doesn't mean you can just walk back into my sister's life. Let me make one thing clear: I'll do whatever it takes to protect her from someone like you."The door suddenly swung open and Nathalie walked in with her assistant, Abby. When she saw her brother a

    After a simple and fun Thanksgiving, everyone headed home. Mr. Davis looked pretty upset as he walked to his car in the parking lot. He was about to leave when he noticed a woman standing far away, seemingly waiting for someone. His eyes narrowed, he got out of the car and checked the CCTV cameras. When he saw that they only covered part of his car, he sprang into action: He grabbed some grease using his handkerchief and smeared it on his license plate, then he headed back inside. 'It's payback time, but I'll take it out on your daughter.' As soon as he started the engine, he immediately stepped on the accelerator pedal and drove straight towards the woman, who was now standing with a guy. He didn't actually plan to hit her, he just wanted to scare her, but he didn't expect the guy to suddenly appear out of nowhere, leading to an unexpected turn of events. After running them over, he stopped for a second to check on them. who were now lying on the ground. 'Sh*t! I didn't hurt them

    It was still early when Nigel went to Nathalie's company, he went straight to Armando's office. As he walked in, he was surprised to see Nico and Nathalie already there. Armando's assistant, Eman, was also present."Good morning, Uncle. Good morning, Nat... Good morning, Mr. Andeza, Mr. Joselito."When Nico caught sight of Nigel, his eyes landed on the bandage on his forehead. He felt an inexplicable feeling, he looked down and seemed lost in thought."Good morning, Nigel. Come in." Armando instructed his assistant to get a chair. "Uncle, is it true that the person who rammed into us last night got away?" Armando let out a disappointed sigh. "Yes. Unfortunately, there aren't many CCTV cameras in the area where that car exited." Nigel thought for a moment. "May I see the footage?"They all headed to the monitoring room and watched the only footage of the vehicle that was caught on their CCTV. Nico's face scrunched up in disappointment. "Is that all?

Where's that? Why are you telling me this now?" Just then, his cellphone rang. "Hold on, don't go yet.""Why? I might not make it on time for our meeting," His daughter's protested as she's getting impatient.Mr. Davis ignored her and answered the call. "Hello?" He suddenly had a surprised reaction. "Oh, Mr. Sarmiento! Yes?... Are you inviting me? Really?... Okay. Alright, I'll go. Now?... Alright."A flash of shrewdness appeared in Mr. Davis' old face after the phone conversation. "Just look at it, It looks like things are going in my favor.""Dad, can I leave now? My friends might be waiting for me.""No, you're not going anywhere. You're coming with me," "What?!

    "Dad, tell me more about Nigel." Franchesca asked while her dad was driving them home."Why do you want to know about him, do you like him?" "Kind of. Is he's taken?" "No. What do you like about him?" "Well, he's handsome, his tanned skin look good with his demeanor as a businessman." "That's it?" Her father asked."Well, yeah..... Is there anything else?" "Okay, I'll help you. But make sure you will really get him, don't disappoint me.""Sure!"When Mr. Davis got home, he started investigating Nigel's connection to Armando and Nathalie. He was curious about why Nigel seemed so concerned about them. So, he got his private investigator, who worked at Armando's company, to dig up some dirt.

    Nico didn't answer his mother, instead, he turned to the pale Lyka. "Where's your aunt?" Lucille was getting confused. "Wait, what's really going on, Nico?" Nico pulled up a chair and sat down. "I'll answer your question later, Mom. Please wake up Dad and call her aunt. I'm going expose something."Lyka seemed to have figured out what was about to happen, and she started crying out of worry and fear. It was over for them; this was what she was talking about. There were no secrets or lies that wouldn't be exposed, but she never thought it would happen this fast.Lyka tearfully called her aunt, and since Rina could sense that something was wrong, she immediately excused herself from her friends at the Mahjong game. She arrived, panting, and as soon as she entered the villa, she loudly called out to her niece, forgetting that they were just guests in someone else's home. "Lyka! Lyka! What happened? Why did you call me?" Lyka had already mentioned that she was in the living room, so

    "Uh, hello... Brother Nigel? It's Lyka." Nigel's brow furrowed as he realized who was calling him. He was about to hang up, but Lyka stopped him: "Wait! Don't hang up yet. Sorry for calling you at this hour, but I'm too embarrassed to admit this to the people here." Nigel's response was curt: "Speak. What do you need?""Um, it's just..." Lyka was about to confess to Nigel when Rina suddenly appeared, causing her to jump in surprise and drop her cellphone. "What are you doing here? Why aren't you sleeping yet? Don't tell me you're trying to cool off when you have air conditioning in your room." Rina pulled Lyka by the hand. "Come on, it's not good for a PREGNANT women to stay up late." Before being dragged away by her aunt, Lyka quickly picked up her cellphone from the lawn. Meanwhile, Nigel was left wondering on the other end of the line when Lyka suddenly went silent. He turned off his cellphone to avoid any further distractions and drifted off to sleep...........A month l

    "Mom, why are you calling me? Is everything okay?" Nathalie wondered, since her mom rarely called her when she was at the office. Her mom only called when there was a problem. On the other end of the line, Lucille was supporting her forehead. "Nat, we have a problem..."After Lucille explained the issue:"What?!! They're going to live in the house?" "Yes, dear. Don't tell your Dad yet, okay? He has an important meeting today and I don't want it to affect him." "Wait... did you agree to it, Mom?""I don't know what to decide. Rina told me they're out of money to rent even a small unit, and on top of that, Lyka is pregnant with your brother's child. How can I turn them down?" Nathalie sighed. As instructed by her mother, Nathalie didn't mention the two to her father or brother. But by lunchtime, she couldn't keep it in anymore. She didn't want to drop the news on them when they were about to head home to avoid catching them off guard. So, after they finished lunch, she told them

    "Mom!" Nico exclaimed, seemingly wanting to contradict his mother, but unable to do so. He didn't like the idea of getting married suddenly, especially since he didn't like Lyka. And because he found out that she had planned everything, he felt a sense of disgust towards her."I'm sorry Nico, but you need to take responsibility even if you didn't mean for it to happen." "B-but Mom....."Nathalie couldn't help but feel sorry for her brother, while their father's thoughts remained unreadable. Meanwhile, Rina secretly celebrated and rejoiced. Thinking that they had succeeded after all, and had even managed to caught a fat fish.Lyka secretly glanced at Nigel, biting her lip. Her face showed resistance, but like Nico, she couldn't express it. Did it mean she would marry Nico in exchange for the good life her aunt was talking about? But Nigel was the one she truly wanted...When the two returned to their temporary residence, a friend's house where Rina and Lyka was staying, she couldn'

    Everyone fell silent at Nico's revelation. Lucille was incredulous while armando grabbed Nico's collar. "Is what you said true, Nico? Are you saying you got someone pregnant?"Nathalie immediately calmed her father down. "Dad, please give my brother a chance to explain. I know he didn't mean for this to happen." She couldn't believe what nico had admitted, because she knew him to be picky when it came to women, so she had a feeling that he hadn't done it on purpose.Nico bowed his head. "I'm sorry, Dad, I-I don't know how it happened...." "How can you not know? You were in control of your body. It's impossible that you don't know what you did!" "Dad, whether you believe me or not, I really don't remember what happened. All I can recall is that I felt dizzy and hot when I entered that suite....."Nico was still speaking when Rina suddenly burst out. "What are you saying, you're the one who got Lyka pregnant?" She snorted. "If you're thinking of covering up what Nigel did, stop it."

    The room went quiet. Rebecca was the first to break the silence and asked, "S-sister, what did you just say?" Rina repeated what she said, and this time, everyone reacted. They turned to look at Lyka almost in unison.Lyka looked down in embarrassment, uneasy under the scrutiny of everyone's gaze. She felt like a specimen under observation.It hadn't sunk in yet for Nigel what his aunt had said, not until he noticed everyone staring at him with doubt. He seemed irritated by the questioning looks, and his irritation was evident in his tone. His face darkened as he turned to his aunt. "I have no idea what you're talking about, where did you even get that?" He then turned to Lyka. "Is that how desperate you are to cause trouble for us?""W-wait a minute... You're saying... Nigel got this girl pregnant?" Lucille asked, pointing to Lyka. "How did that happen?" She looked puzzled, unable to understand how it was possible, given that she knew Nigel had feelings for Nathalie. So, how did h

    "Your brother Nigel is already home with his girlfriend," Rina pointed out."What's the point, anyway? Our plan won't push through since the result is negative," Lyka replied. She looked somewhat disappointed."I know we didn't get what we wanted, but are we just going to give up like that? It would be a waste to come all the way to the city for nothing.""What else can we do?... Aunt, why don't we just go back to the countryside? I'll just continue my studies there.""What? No way! I'm not going back there to be a farmer and get my skin burned again by the intense heat of the sun. Why would I struggle there when my sister and her son have such a great life here?""But Aunt...""Just don't give up yet, I'll see what I can do. Maybe I can find a way, you never know."

    "Nathalie, listen carefully...." Nigel 's expression was utterly serious. "You must hate her because she's the one who started it all...." And then he told her about Elaine's fake heart condition.Nathalie clenched her fists. "So, she wants me dead? What did I ever do to her to make her want my life? I already gave you up to her back then and I even decided to donate my heart to her just to prolong her life.""Well, she's not worth it. She's evil, and if she really needs a heart donor, it would be a mistake for anyone to donate to someone like her." "Never mind, it's over now. What's important is that she didn't succeed completely. She may have separated us for three years, but we're still together. For everything she's done, let's just leave it to God to punish her."Nigel smiled slightly. "Um, from now on, no one can ever separate us again... not even her... Nathalie..." He wrapped his arms around her waist. "We haven't done this yet, but can I...?" Nathalie smiled sweetly, she le

They actually prefer this setup, where it's like they're starting all over again, getting to know each other as boyfriend and girlfriend. Travelling together or wherever they decide to go is also part of their plans."Wow, you two seem like you're on your honeymoon already! Where do you plan on making our future grandkids?" Lucille asked when Nigel and Nathalie told them about their vacation plans. "M-mom!" Nathalie exclaimed, her face quickly turning red from her mother's teasing. Lucille and Rebecca burst out laughing, while Armando just listened quietly as he sipped his coffee. "Just kidding, why are you blushing so quickly?" ."Um....
