The man was startled at his boss's unexpected exaggerated reaction. "I-its Nathalie Andeza sir.... n-nathalie Andeza"

"W-what was he said it's all about?" Nigel seems to be agitated

"Sir, I don't know.... I didn't look at the fax they send yet."

Nigel hurriedly went to his office, he immediately took all the papers on the fax machine and looked at them carefully. "Come here!" He called his assistant. "Help me to find the fax you had said."

    Nigel slowly turned to his back. He stood up in awe as he was gawking at the woman while she's making her way toward his direction. He wasn't sure if his eyes suddenly obtained some defects or if it were just deceiving him, he almost rubbed it just to clear his eyesight. "N...n-nathalie?...." He blurted out with a little difficulty. After that, he couldn't speak again. Nathalie doesn't seem to take his reaction seriously. "Hello Mr. Sarmiento, long time no see." She then pulled a chair and sat down elegantly. When Nigel came back to his senses, he suddenly grabbed her and pulled her upright. "Y-you did not die?" He asked in disbelief, he choked as if he's about to burst to tears at any moment. "What's happen to you? W-why did you dissapeared? Do you know I'm almost gone insane? Where have you been in all these years? Why didn't you contact me? Nathalie...." Nathalie frowned and tried to get rid of the man's tight grip.

If... if I could turn back the time...." The bar went pin-dropped silent and the situation became seriously awkward. Nobody wanted to disturb the moment, they could only glance to each other. They couldn't even make a rustling noise while the others barely breathing, they look back and forth at the two. Nathalie let out a sighed. "Forget it. It's already in the past, let's move on." Nigel wanted to say something but he can't figure out what ought to say, he just sitting there quietly while clenching his fist. Michelle cleared her throat and speak up to somehow get rid of the awkward ambience. "Alright, and this is how we conclude, thank

"I haven't eat my breakfast so I ordered a lot, does it turn you off Mr. Valdez?" Nathalie asked while munching her food, her cheeks was bulging like a squirrel. "No worries Ms. Andeza, it's actually nice to see a woman who didn't restrain herself from eating a lot. You know women nowadays always care about their figure so they always eat a little." "That's true, but I'm different. I don't get plump easily in just one heavy meal so its fine for me to eat more. I don't even restrain myself if I'm starving." "Then, I think I shouldn't restrain myself either. I am a man and I have much a bigger appetite than you. What do you think, should we compete?" Nathali

    "You're really quiet today, don't you have anything to say? You didn't even greet me or ask if I've had breakfast," Elaine said to Nigel, who was driving. Nigel didn't respond, like he hadn't heard her. If only Elaine knew how much he wanted to kick her out of the car, but he knew he had to play nice. "Where should I drop you off?" "You want to get rid of me already, huh?" Elaine moved closer and unexpectedly hugged Nigel. She almost jerked forward when Nigel suddenly slammed on the brakes.Nigel pulled over for a moment. "What the...?! Can't you see I'm driving?!" he snapped. Elaine fell silent, pouting like a scolded child. "Sorry, Nigel... why are you being so grumpy with me? I remember you never used to raise your voice at me before, you were always so gentle when we talked. But now, just a little mistake and you're already yelling?"Nigel continued driving.

    Elaine happily chooses her outfit for the day. She chooses to wear her expensive branded dress, paired with heavy makeup, as if she's going on a date. She likely forgot what the meeting is all about.Her hips sway as she heads to the VIP suite she booked. She asks the person she's going to meet to wait there. Before entering, she takes out her expensive perfume from her pouch and gives herself a quick spritz.When she opened the door, she saw a man standing by the window. She knitted her brows when he didn't give her even a single glance, acting as if she wasn't there. "Nigel," she called out loudly to get his attention.When Nigel faced her, she swayed her hips as she approached him. When she wrapped her arms around his neck, he was about to push her away when she warned him, "If you stop me, I won't cooperate with you."Nigel froze. He just endured the discomfort he felt. As the woman was almost hugging him, he asked, "Where's Nathalie's heart? Is it still at the hospital?" "I do

    When Nathalie woke up, she jolted upright, disoriented. The events from earlier immediately flooded back to her. She had been heading to the restroom at a gas station when someone suddenly attacked her from behind. They grabbed her and dragged her somewhere, while one of them made her inhale something from a handkerchief, making her pass out.When she looked around, she realized she was in an abandoned place. Fear enveloped her as she wrapped her arms around herself. A question formed in her mind: was this a kidnapping for ransom? Thinking that might be the reason, her fear slightly diminished. If that was the case, they would definitely ask ransom money. As long as the kidnappers didn't think of doing anything inappropriate to her, she will be fine.She jolted as the creaky, rusty door swung open. Two men, both wearing hoods and face masks entered. "Oh, she's awake. Maybe we can start now and get this job done?" One of the men asked.Nathalie's fear returned. What did the man mean?

    Nigel suddenly grabbed Elaine's neck. "Do you really want me to be a criminal, Elaine? Do you really want me to be forced to kill someone?" Elaine struggled and angrily broke free from his grip. "Can't you just accept me, Nigel? Why is it so hard for you to do what I'm asking? Didn't you love me once–" "Yes, but I was blind back then!" Nigel snapped, silencing Elaine. "I made a mistake! I chose the wrong person. If you hadn't lied to me and pretended to save me from the fire, do you think I would've even noticed you?" Elaine froze, feeling like she'd been slapped as she was reminded of her deception and lies."Actually, it's also my fault for being deceived. I didn't even think you were fake. You know, you're one of the mistakes in my life. I wish I never met you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have hurt the person I love." "Enough!" Elaine interrupted, somewhat hurt by his words. "You don't truly love Nathalie, it's me..." She pointed to herself. "I'm the one you truly love, N

    When Elaine finally unleashed her pent-up frustrations, she suddenly realized that she became the center of attention. She fished out some money from her clutch bag and slapped it on the counter, then she walked out without looking back. She leaned against a wall, feeling the effects of the alcohol kicking in, and now she felt dizzy.She grabbed her cellphone and dialed Nigel's number. She tried ten times, but it kept going straight to voicemail. "Why can't I reach him? Did he block me, or did he change his number?"Then she called someone abroad. "Hello, dear? I just want to confirm if I'll be okay if I expose myself - won't I be throw in jail?"The man on the other end replied, "You're good, they can't touch you. Besides, isn't your boyfriend some big-shot international lawyer?"Elaine felt a wave of relief. "Really? Thanks, dear. I feel so much better now.""No worries, babe. Anything for you.""Alright, see you." Elaine replied."Bye, I love you.""I love you too."When the call

    "Nat, are you happy?" Nigel asked, squeezing Nathalie's hand as they walked holding hands through the park. They'd ditched their work to spend some time together."Of course, I am. But you know, I'm not sure if I'm going to regret this or what. I admit, at first, it was tough for me to accept Lyka and her pregnancy. But then I thought, it's my brother's child after all and he's innocent. But... it turns out that's not the case anymore. I don't know, it's just that... when I finally accepted everything, we then found out...""Nat..." Nigel interrupted, stopping in his tracks and smiling at Nathalie. "Are you regretting that the wedding won't push through? You know, we could still go through with it.""What–"Just as Nathalie was about to ask a question, Nigel dropped to his knee. He pulled out a ring box from his pocket and opened it, revealing a beautiful ring. "I know this might catch you off guard, but I just can't help how I feel. My heart is telling me not to let you go.

    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 to 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 ro

    "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
