Andrea's POV

~~~ Flashback 10 years Ago~~~

He's like a knight who jumps down from his stallion to save a princess. And that princess is me… Uhmm… He's holding my waist tightly. He's looking at me intently. My heart starts to beat so fast. My eyes blink many times.

"I think I'm in love," I whispered to myself.

He helps me stand. I smiled at him beautifully.

"Uhm, mmm. Thank you!" That was all I could say in my excitement while tucking my hair behind my ear.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yes!! Yes, of course. Thanks to you," I said shyly.

I saw him looking at my waistcoat. How embarrassing, there was yellow paint on it! He might think I'm messy.

"Is this stain from the painting?" he asked curiously.

"Yes, sorry, this coat…" I wasn’t able to finish my sentence because he suddenly spoke. I was about to say that it was Jessica’s coat and I had just borrowed it, but I didn’t want him to think I was an untidy woman.

"Can I have your number?" he asked.

I am waiting for my husband. There are so many decisions I regret making in the past. I saw a car pulling in. He’s here. I poured myself another glass of wine. A few moments later, I heard the door open."Drinking wine this early? Is there a problem?" he asked.He knows me too well. Whenever he sees me drinking too much, he knows there’s a problem. I placed the wine glass on the table and walked toward him to help him remove his suit. I hung it in the closet."When are you

    Jessica's POVI hurriedly got out of bed. I saw that Nick was no longer there. I had spent the night at his condo.Oh no! I slept too well. I still have to show my proposal for Mr. Galvez to my sister. When I stepped out of the bedroom, I saw that my breakfast was already prepared. There was a sticky note on the table."I had to leave early, Love. Need to go to the office. Mwaah, I love you! Enjoy the breakfast. Hope you like it!!"There were little hearts drawn on it. I smiled and kissed the sticky note. Recently, Nick had been so sweet. Not that I was complaining, I just couldn’t believe he could be this affectionate.I ate everything he had prepared for me before leaving his condo to change in my own unit. I was alone in my condo now since Scarlett had been too busy with her recently concluded solo exhibition. It had such a great effect on her.I was about to leave when I suddenly remembered that I had left my car keys in Nick’s room. I quickly went back to his condo. As I was abou

I asked."We should be at the golf course by 3:00 PM," he said happily.Sigh… Just when I’m busy, that’s when Dad chooses to bother me."Yes! Be at your best! Jessica will be there," he added playfully with a wink. I just laughed at his expression. No wonder he wanted me to come, it was because of Jessica. Well, I smiled. Yeah, I kind of miss Jessica.

    Nicholas' POV Today is the day of the bidding. We only have one competitor, Laviste Land Inc. I am confident with my proposal. I already have several investors just waiting for me to secure this project. I have been working on this for months, ensuring that I have a high chance of winning. Laviste Land Inc. presented first. My team is waiting outside since it's a closed-door presentation. After a while, I saw Andrea come out with a smile. "Good luck, Nick," she said with a smirk. I just nodded. I adjusted my necktie before entering the room. Almost everyone inside was a billionaire, investors for the Mega City. Once Dominic had everything set, I began my presentation. "Good morning, everyone. I’m Nicholas Ford, representing AMT Construction. As you all know, AMT has primarily focused on designing and support. However, we have now decided to expand into building and construction, the legacy of my late father, Agustine Ford. I want to revive that legacy..." I noticed almost

It was also perfect timing that Scarlett came home from abroad, and George was able to join us too.This beach resort is beautiful. It's peaceful. The sand is lovely. I also saw some people camping, but their tent is quite far from us.We are just sitting here, listening to the sound of the waves. We’ve already had dinner and changed into comfortable clothes. We’re planning to sleep in a tent. Right now, Nick and I are sitting on a sand-proof mat. He’s in front of me while I lean against his chest. He’s hugging me from behind. We are facing the sea, with the fire beside us. George and Scarlett are sitting on chairs, facing the fire."Come on, Nick! Tone down the sweetness, it's making me uncomfortable," George teased as he saw Nick kissing my hair."You're just jealous," Nick replied seriously."Hahaha," I laughed out loud."W

After the exhibit, we didn’t get another chance to meet.The place and the atmosphere are so romantic, under the twinkling stars, the bright moon, and the sound of the waves. George and I aren’t really talking much. We just keep drinking beer. It’s like I can’t think of anything to say. Why do I feel so awkward? What’s happening to me? I used to be a talkative person, but now I’m speechless.When George mentioned that he was going to buy more beer, I insisted on going with him. I didn’t want to be a third wheel to the couple being all lovey-dovey in front of me. I got into the car and could tell George was kind of surprised."I'm going with you," I said."Okay," he replied.He had been driving for almost five minutes, but neither of us had spoken, so I decided to break the silence."How are you?""How are you?"We spoke at the same time

    George's POVI keep trying to avoid the attraction I feel toward Scarlett. I thought it was just a simple crush like with other girls, something that would just pass. But with each passing day, she keeps invading my thoughts. Her beautiful smile, her loud and cheerful personality, it all disturbs the quietness of my heart. Damn! My heart. She's getting into my heart, not just my mind.To make matters worse, there's also my lust. Or can I really call it lust? Because every time she's near, it's like she's a magnet pulling me closer. These feelings started when I kissed her lips. My body craves more every time I see her.So earlier, even though there was still beer left, I purposely walked away because I could feel my body heating up while watching Scarlett drink.

Suddenly, I saw someone familiar eating at a restaurant. I frowned, it was Jessica and Rich. They were laughing and clearly having a good time.I clenched my jaw and looked away. I called her. After a few rings, she answered."Hello, love!""Where are you?" I asked directly."Ah, I’m having a meeting with a client!

It seemed like her signal was gone.I decided to turn off the phone and look straight ahead.

    Jessica's POVAfter a while, I started enjoying skating. My fear was gone. Rich and I just laughed whenever I fell. Somehow, during those moments, I forgot about Nick. Like now, Rich was happily showing off his skating skills. I could see he really loved skating. I just smiled while watching him, already tired from all the skating. After a few rounds, he skated toward me.“When did you learn how to skate, Rich? You're really good at it,” I asked.“Hmm, let me think.” He stroked his chin like he was deep in thought.“I think I started during elementary. I was challenged to skate because my friends teased me. It took a while before I could skate without holding onto someone,” he said with a smile.“I still remember how many times I fell. Too many to count. I almost gave up. Hehe.”“Did you join competitions?” I asked.“I fell in love with skating, so yes! Eventually, I got good and joined competitions.” Rich’s eyes sparkled as he said that, reminiscing about one of the happiest times in

    Jessica’s POVI glanced in the direction of Nick and Ate Andrea before getting into the car. I saw how bright her smile was while talking to Nick. I was holding back my tears. It hurt. Nick didn’t even want to listen to me. I sadly got into Rich’s car. Rich looked at me and smiled. "You know what? I know a place where happiness exists," he said cheerfully. I forced a smile."And where’s that?" I asked, a little doubtful. "Trust me! It’s a surprise. So, are you in?" he asked excitedly.It took me a while to answer. Maybe I did need a little distraction. If I went home now, Nick wouldn’t even talk to me. I’d just sulk in my room. It was only seven o’clock. I took a deep breath."Okay, let’s go," I said with a smile.A few moments later, I noticed Rich’s car pulling into a mall. I looked at him curiously."Have you tried skating?" he asked."No," I replied."Come on!" He pulled me toward the skating rink. I noticed there was no one else around. Just us. I looked at him questioningly.

    Nick’s POV “I think we should eat. The food’s getting cold,” I said firmly. Both Andrea and Jessica looked at me at the same time.“Oh yeah! Sorry, Nick! Let’s eat!” Andrea said sweetly.I was observing Jessica earlier while she was feeling embarrassed by Andrea’s remarks. I think it was a mistake to agree to have dinner with Andrea. Here I go again. Instead of staying mad at Jessica, my protective instincts are kicking in. I hate it when people mistreat her.I kept watching her as she ate. I felt like she hadn’t eaten again. She always does this and it annoys me.“Here, Nick, this one’s really good. Try it,” Andrea offered me some seafood and even peeled it for me. I just let her. “Thank you,” I replied briefly. She smiled at me so beautifully. I saw Jessica shoot a subtle glance at Andrea. I couldn’t help but chuckle at her expression. Then she pouted and quietly kept eating, focusing on her food. I could tell she was slicing her meat with so much intensity.Even the way she was

    Jessica’s POV I was shocked when I saw Nick entering our company building. I had just returned from lunch and was in the lobby. I was about to greet him, but I noticed the serious look on his face. His eyes narrowed when he saw me, so I stopped walking halfway. Nick really has a strong presence, especially when he’s in business attire. So powerful. I could hear whispers from people behind me.“He’s so handsome! Who is he??”“Oh!? Is that Nicholas Ford? Why is he here? I thought our companies were rivals?” “Damn! He’s even more handsome in person,” someone squealed with excitement. A few moments later, I saw Ate Andrea greet Nick with a smile. She even kissed him on the cheek, and Nick just let her. My fists clenched. “Oh-em-gee… this is hot gossip!! Could Ma’am Andrea be his girlfriend?? Wow! They’re such a perfect match! The Princess of the Construction Business and the King of Design. Perfect combo, even their heights match! Ayiiee, I’m getting giddy,” a flamboyant guy behind me

    Andrea’s POV Jessica and I arrived at the office at the same time. I could see how downcast she looked, walking into the elevator like she was in a daze. She didn’t even notice me. I smirked in triumph. I know I’ve successfully stirred conflict in their relationship. And I’m just getting started. I won’t let them get back together. I know Jessica, and I know Nick. I can play them both in the palm of my hand. I smiled to myself. Jessica’s steps looked so heavy. She left the elevator without even lifting her head. She just kept looking down. When I arrived at my office, I happily greeted all the employees there. I noticed them exchanging glances. Haha, they’re not used to seeing me cheerful and in a good mood.Once I got into my office, I called my secretary. She came in right away.“Kindly set a meeting with Nicholas Ford of AMT Construction,” I said.“Okay, Miss Laviste.” She was about to leave, but I suddenly thought of a great plan. “Wait!

    Dominic's POVWe were still joking around in the pantry with one of the secretaries when we saw Sir enter the office looking grim. We quickly stood up from our seats and rushed to greet him. “Good morning, Sir!!” we greeted him with smiles.“Call the marketing team and the designers. We have an emergency meeting!!!” he said firmly.I felt nervous from Sir Nick’s aura and tone of voice. It’s been a long time since he acted like this. The secretary beside me looked at me with questioning eyes. I simply shrugged in response. I followed behind Sir Nick as he walked into his private office.“Sir, it’s not even eight yet, so some people aren’t in the office yet,” I said. He went straight to his chair and looked through the documents I had placed on his desk.“By the way, I’ve already set an appointment with Sir Carlos San Fernando. He said he’s available tomorrow night.”He looked at me for a long moment before speaking.“We didn’t get the project, so we don’t need a major investor anymor

    Jessica’s POVMy steps felt heavy as I walked out of Nick’s condo. My tears wouldn’t stop falling. I never expected Nick’s anger to run that deep. When I stepped out, I turned around to glance at his door. I couldn’t bring myself to walk toward Scarlett’s condo.I didn’t go home last night because Dad didn’t want me to. He said I should just go home in the morning. I was too busy taking care of Rich anyway. Dad insisted that I attend to Rich while he and Rich’s father played chess. So I showed him around the house. Some of my paintings were displayed there, and I proudly showed them to Rich. I loved how much he understood art, his knowledge of it was impressive. We were in the middle of a cheerful conversation when Sister Andrea arrived. I saw her walk in, clearly drunk, swaying as she entered. I was about to help her, but she gave me a “shh!” sign, reminding me not to mind her. Rich and I just watched her walk past. When I looked out the window, I thought I saw Nick’s car. I shook m

    Nicholas' POVI turned my back when Dad told me he loved Elena, even when my mom was still alive. I covered myself with a blanket and ignored him. I felt so betrayed. I was hurting for Mom. I couldn’t even bring myself to question Dad.“Let’s talk tomorrow, Nick, when you’re no longer drunk. I have something important to tell you too. Get some rest for now.”I didn’t respond, so he left me alone. He tapped me before walking out. After that night, we never got to talk again. I booked another ticket back abroad. Dad wasn’t there when I left because he had an emergency at the company. Since that night, my relationship with Dad changed. I became distant. I focused on studying and got into other extracurricular activities. I forced myself to take my mind off the Country and forced myself to be happy.Eventually, Elena and Dad got married. Dad sent me an invitation, but I didn’t go. I made up an excuse. Dad didn’t push me either. I spent more time abroad than at home. Elena treated me well,
