"Big sister, you are so beautiful!!! You look like a princess!" Seven-year-old Lara exclaimed with twinkling eyes full of admiration. Her older sister Lena was currently fitting her gown for her upcoming wedding."Really, Lara?" Lena bent down and squeezed both of her cheeks. "You really are my number one fan!"She gave her sister her big smile, showing off her missing front tooth. Lena had just turned eighteen but she was already set to marry her childhood sweetheart, Migo, in a month’s time. It was still too early, but she could see that Lena was happy with her decision."Do you want to fit your gown, too?" Lena asked.Lara nodded excitedly. She was going to be her sister's flower girl. Of course, she must also have a gown fitting! She will also wear white, like a little bride.Lena helped her put on her gown. Then, they both looked in the mirror."Wow! I also look like a princess! Look at me, big sister!""Yes, you are! Wait, let's take a picture together." Lena took her phone and

"Divorce?" Atty Baltazar repeated her words as if it was the most unbelievable word ever."Yes, Atty., divorce," she confirmed."Mrs. Villareal," he leaned back on his chair and looked at her intently, like he was wondering what the hell she was thinking. She met the old lawyer's gaze. She needed to show him that she was being serious. She had thought about it for several months and was able to convince herself that it was the right thing to do. She knew she could also convince Atty. Baltazar if he saw the determination in her eyes."Mrs. Villareal," he said again. He clasped his hands on top of his glass table before continuing. "Do you even understand what you’re saying?"She stopped herself from raising an eyebrow. Did she look like she did not understand what she wanted to happen? Her? The Lara Andrade, who graduated summa cum laude just this past month?What she wanted was really simple -- divorce her absentee and overly mysterious husband!Did she need to prove to him that she u

Lara couldn’t believe it. She graduated Summa Cum Laude but she was given the position of Assistant to the Assistant? Clerical! She wanted to walk out. What did her brilliant husband think of her? Did he think she knew nothing? Given that she was a fresh grad. She could still accept an Assistant position. But to be the Assistant of the Assistant, did Migo think so lowly of her abilities? What insulted her more was what the HR Manager told her. They gave her that position because there was really no vacancy. That if not for her backer, she wouldn’t have been accepted into the company. Yes! The HR Manager was that straight forward! Lara felt like the latter was being personal with her. "I have no idea who endorsed you, but you are referred directly from the office of the CEO. So, I guess he’s someone not to be taken lightly. But don't mistake that because you have an influential backer, you will receive special treatment here," Ms. Salvacion lengthily said. What if she told her

Lara grinned as she slipped the signed divorce papers into the photocopied files for the CEO. She would let him know of her intention to divorce him and that she was dead serious about it.Enough was enough. She was so done. If Miguel wouldn't take her seriously, then he should just let her go on her own.She didn't need him anymore because she was grown now.'That sounds so ungrateful, Lara,' her mind quickly rebuked.Fine. She owed Miguel everything she had now. But couldn't she have her own life now? Migo should set her free and let her live her life away from him. Because why would he keep her if he didn't have plans of letting her see him?What was the purpose of marrying her when she couldn't see even the tips of his hair? Couldn't they be friends at least? What was Migo's reason for being so mysterious? What was she supposed to do with him?Lara was tired. She didn't want to do anything with Miguel anymore!"Why are you smiling like that, Lara?" Kylene asked curiously as she a

Because Lara was still in a bad mood, after being dropped off at work the next day, she didn't go inside the office. She made her driver believe that he had accomplished his task of taking her to work.But once the driver was out of sight, she took a taxi straight to Anastacia's condo."I'm leaving in an hour," her friend said, as if reluctant to let her in. Anastacia was busy ironing her hair."I need someone to talk to, Tasya!" Even though she wasn't welcome, Lara entered and slumped on her friend's bed, while Anastacia quickly returned to her vanity."Okay, shoot. I guess I can multitask," Tasya said, still engrossed in her hair.She sighed in exasperation."I've seen Migo," she said, and was startled when Tasya suddenly screamed."Ouch!" Anastacia winced, having burned herself due to Lara's unexpected revelation. "So, what does your guardian look like? Is he handsome, this famous but mysterious Mall tycoon?"Lara made a bitter face. Was that her friend's only concern? If Miguel wa
