Chapter 11 Anxiety

(Camilla’s POV)I checked myself in the mirror for the last time before heading out of my apartment.Looking pretty has always been my forte, but I felt the need to put more effort in my appearance tonight. I even hired a personal hairstylist and makeup artist just to pamper me right.I have been rich for the longest time, but I was never popular like Kalel. I never had people bash me so much online.I thought I was already perfect, but these people in the internet seemed to have always find a way to find flaws and imperfections to me. They used it against me, and I hate the fact that I am affected.“You look very beautiful, Miss Camilla,” my hairstylist said, looking at my reflection on the elevator. I gave her a short glance.Accepting genuine compliments has always been hard to me. I always think people say something good to get something good in return. It’s always a give and take and you can never receive something for free out of genuine intention.It just doesn't exist in the w

Chapter 12 To break

(Camilla’s POV)The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes were the fluorescent lights of the clinic buzzing overhead. It was casting a sterile glow on my face, causing me to squint to adjust my vision for a moment.I blinked, my vision blurry, the memory of the overwhelming panic still lingering like a phantom limb. I heaved a deep sigh, realizing that I have accidentally shown to the world the vulnerability I’ve been trying to hide my whole life.I promised to go back stronger in my revenge.Not weaker…I winced when I felt a hand, warm and reassuring, suddenly clasped tightly around mine. That's when I realized that there was a man sitting beside me on the clinic bed. It was Kalel."Are you okay?" he asked, his voice low and steady. I awkwardly withdrew my hand from him. “We can postpone the press conference if you want. You don't have to do it tonight… or anymore.”I gave him a sharp stare, my gaze meeting his. "No, I’m doing this,” my voice stern.I’m not going back to my apartm

Chapter 13 Play Your Game

(Lester’s POV)My jaw clenched as I listened to the news anchor interviewing Camilla and Kalel, their faces plastered on the screen live on my television. Her voice was smooth as butter while delivering all the wrong things I’ve done to her that I’d hoped to bury in the past together with our unwanted memories.My blood ran cold when they flashed my photo, emphasizing my candidacy for the upcoming election for governor, asking the viewers if they would vote for me despite my ex-wife’s revelation.I have been expecting Camilla to use that against me, but the reality of it hit me like a ton of bricks. It’s more damaging than I thought it would be.Lester’s blood ran cold. The news anchor, a woman with a voice as smooth as butter, was interviewing Camilla and Kalel, their faces plastered on the screen.

Chapter 14 Contract

(Camilla’s POV)It was a rainy afternoon in my office when my door suddenly sprung open, revealing my secretary who is radiating a frenetic energy.I arched my brows at her confusedly.She gave me a big smile.My team has always been comfortable around me. I treat them like family, that's why they don't feel the need to filter their emotions when they're with me.Transparency has always been my guide on handling my employees.“A sponsor has funded our project, Miss Camilla!” she chirped, her face alight with excitement. I perched on my sleek, black leather chair. As a billionaire, I know I have the resources to fund the project myself, but the news still sent a thrill through me.It wasn't just about the money, but the validation, the recognition of my genius.It’s not everyday that the world is blessed with a smart woman with a pretty face.“Who is it?” I asked, interested to hear the name of the person who appreciated our effort to create a project that promises to revolutionize the

Chapter 15 Awkward

(Lester’s POV)The stale air in the coffee shop hung heavy with the scent of burnt coffee and anxiety. I impatiently fidgeted the sugar pocket in my hand, my eyes darting nervously at the entrance, waiting for my friend to arrive.My secretary assured me that she agreed to meet with me today, but why is she not here yet? I feel like I’ve been waiting for an eternity. Each second that passes in this damn coffee shop feels like ten years.I’m going to be honest.I know that Camilla has all the resources to buy people’s loyalty now. She’s probably much richer than I am now. Had I known she was this wealthy, I wouldn't have replaced her with her best friend who only knows how to spread her legs on the bed.Cindy is honestly useless in everything.My face brightened when I saw an incoming familiar woman entering the coffee shop. I immediately raised my hand to wave at her. She smiled as she walked towards the direction of our table.“I’m sorry. There was heavy traffic. Some trucks hit a bu

Chapter 16 Becky

(Camilla’s POV)My cheeks heated as Kalel leaned against his car with a mischievous grin playing on his lips as he watched me emerge from the building. It was like the sheepish Kalel I saw earlier was gone. He couldn't even look me in the eyes earlier when I was just towel wrapped.He’s such a weirdo. I can't blame him though. I know I look stunning, as always, even when I’m just wearing a simple, boring shirt and pants.I didn't want to wear any of my clothes that I have in my wardrobe because of how revealing most of them are. We’re literally about to meet his grandma, a traditional woman probably from the 1940’s.I wouldn't want her to see me looking like a hooker when her grandson looks like he came out straight from a 1950’s magazine."Ready to go?" he asked, his voice laced with amusement.However, I didn't seem as eager because I still had to find me some good clothes. I frowned, glancing down at my outfit. "Actually, can we stop by that boutique first?" I asked, gesturing towa

Chapter 17 Strawberry Date

(Camilla’s POV)The aroma of sweet hot choco filled the air as I sat beside Becky on the plush living room sofa. The afternoon sun streamed through the windows, casting a warm glow on the room, adding more coziness in the time capsule home.Looking at the pictures on the wall, I can already tell that her husband had passed away a long time ago. She’s loving alone in this beautiful home.No wonder why Kalel was so eager to go to his grandmother’s house.She needed company here."So, tell me, dear," Becky began, her voice a gentle murmur, "how did you and Kalel meet?"My heart skipped a beat. I have already anticipated this moment to come where she’d question me about our relationship. The question, innocent as it seemed, was a minefield for me. You guys know that our engagement was a carefully crafted facade, a strategic alliance born out of necessity, not love.There's no way that I could answer that question without my eyes betraying me. I’m not really good at lying, especially to th

Chapter 18 Turning Around

(Camilla’s POV)“And we’re done!” Becky announced after securing the last mason jar.The scent of simmered strawberries lingered in the air, a sweet reminder of our afternoon spent together. My cheeks flushed with a mixture of exhaustion and pride. It was my first time making jam, and the success of it felt like a small victory.I didn't know making jams takes a long process. It was enjoyable though because I made it with Bekcy who made sure to fill our activity with a bunch of stories, mainly about Kalel’s childhood.I can really see how much she loves her grandson. No wonder why Kalel is the same to her.At that moment, a man entered the kitchen, his face a little darker than the last time I saw it. Something tells me that his mood is off. He’s not even smiling even when Becky looks at him.“Would you like to try the jam, dear?” Becky asked sweetly.Kalel smiled briefly and shook his head, focusing his attention on me. I gave him a curious look. I don't see any reason for him to be

Chapter 19 Meet Up

(Camillai’s POV)“Are you sure that's enough? We have more strawberry jams in the pantry. I can't eat them all. You can take them to your house,” Becky said while busily filling the paper bag with freshly picked fruits from her garden. “Wait, I’ll get more cherries.”She was about to go back inside the house when I hugged her tightly from the back. “I’ll miss you, Becky,” I sweetly said.I could smell the scent of strawberries that had lingered on her clothes."Promise me that you will come back. We still have a lot to do,” Becky said, her voice soft. "And remember, I'm always here for you."I nodded, my throat tight. "Thank you, Becky. I'll call you soon."Soon enough Kalel's car arrived at the facade of the house. I turned back to Kalel, who was loading the last of our belongings into the car. The jars of strawberry jam, their labels carefully crafted, sat nestled amongst the luggage. I took a last whiff of fresh air before finally approaching Kalel in his car."Ready?" Kalel asked,

(Camilla’s POV)After a number of attempts of calming down my breathing, I finally had the strength to go to my closet and find clothes that would be useful for my meet up with Lester.It was something I waited for for a very long time. I have waited for a time where I can finally confront him with everything.But I knew I have to be ready.I carefully adjusted the straps that's holding a secret weapon hiding beneath my dress. It was a small dagger, just in case Lester tries to do something funny.I won't hesitate to stab him with it.I was about to exit my apartment when a voice suddenly called me from behind.“Where are you going?” Kalel asked, his voice soft and concerned, pulled me into a halt.My grip on the door tightened. I almost forgot that he’s in my apartment. I wonder if he overheard my conversation with Lester in the call. There's no reason for him to ask where I’m headed then. He should know if he listened well.“I’m meeting Lester,” I replied frankly, making his brows f
