Chapter Forty-One: Marissa is Nervous

Marissa’s POVI opened the main door of my apartment and locked it when I was ready to leave. The gate was wide open, so I could see the Aston Martin Diego Montero owned beside him while he was waiting for me. I sighed before I started walking towards him.Again, I touched every part of my dress and felt my purpose, trying to breathe every minute. Okay, Marissa. You just have to be strong. Remember what Nica said? You have to just apologize to Brylle and explain your side. Do your best to make him understand. He will not have second thoughts just to forgive you. You can’t endure not forgiving someone you love. If the heart wants it, it will be able to do its best to get you back.I took a deep breath while still walking. Diego must have heard my heels, so he immediately turned his head to me. His lips parted as if he was amused, his gaze hovering over my entire appearance. It was awkward because it was as if I was displaying myself to impress him. Tss.“Hi,” he greeted with a ghost of

Chapter Forty-Two: Diego's Ex Crush

Marissa's POV“I see that Brylle likes you. Men nowadays cannot endure pursuing women that long. They tend to jump from one to another,” he shared. “Why?” I smirked. “Are you one of these stupid men?”I crossed my arms and comfortably leaned against the backrest of the passenger’s seat. I sighed.“That is why I do not trust men generally. I have a best friend whose name is Nica. I witnessed her cry with multiple men she dated and how they just left her like she was trash they could throw anytime. I mean, why do they say that to women who genuinely love them through best and worst times?”“Hey, so are you considering me one of them?” he asked.“Well, I do not. I did not hear anyone say that you fell in love with someone,” I said. "You seem like a lone wolf who does not find socializing interesting. So it only leads to a conclusion that dating is just not indispensable to you."He furrowed his eyebrows briefly, glanced at me meaningfully, and then shook his head. "That is where you are

Chapter Forty-Three: What About A Party?

Marissa’s POVMy heart and my mind were both cloudy as I stared through the car window. Questions haunted me as we left the restaurant, asking myself what just happened.What did Brylle mean that Nica is his girlfriend? And why did Nica stand up like she was even proud of it? What the hell happened?Brylle and Nica. They were both important to me. We have been together for so long. If my trust was placed in people, it would be them as my first choice. Even though they never got along together because Brylle acted as my suitor, while Nica served as my confidant, they were the ones I entrusted my care and devotion to all my life. I had no parents. No mass of friends. No relatives. No people see me as a dear person to me.An independent woman would only lean on people who truly care for her and would trade anything in the world just to display loyalty. In that way, she would also return the favor. Even everything that she has for them.My grandmother is currently hospitalized. My best fr

Chapter Forty-Four: Protect You

Marissa's POVHe turned on the GPS of his car and looked for an exclusive bar near our location. I could not wait to indulge myself in a random party where random people could join me in dancing. I can imagine being so foreign to new things, but I know I am adaptable. And I hope I will enjoy every bit of it. At last, we parked in the parking lot of the nearby bar and there were numerous sports cars, owned by obvious young adults and party people inside. I opened the door of the car and removed Diego's coat from my shoulders."Are you sure about this?" Diego asked as he got out of his car.I first threw his coat on his passenger's seat before regarding him. I closed the car door and nodded in enthusiasm."I am sure about this, Diego," I said and winked at him. "Let's go?"Before he could even refuse, I had already dragged his hand inside without hesitation. He told me to be casual towards him and be comfortable when we are together, so I do not think he would mind inviting him to the t

Chapter Forty-Five: Not Used to Compliment

Marissa's POVI had already dragged Diego away from the entrance and we attacked the bar counter where we went through two groups of people who were drinking and partying. After the bartender gave the pile of cocktails to one group, he then regarded the two of us with a huge smile and enthusiastic eyes."Good evening! What can I do for both of you, ma'am and sir?" the bartender asked us."A bottle of tequila please!" I said and smiled at him."I got you, miss!" the bartender said and then turned his back to prepare for my order.As I sat on the stool, I felt a hand snaking around my waist. Shivers went through my spine as I looked at Diego who sat beside me on my stool as we waited. I was taken aback, but when I looked at him, he was just casually looking.Okay, Marissa. Just like what you said, everything between the two of you would be both casual and comfortable. So calm down.He stated that he is just protecting you from anything that would possibly transpire. Clubs are also one o

Chapter Forty-Six: Just Like the Two of Us

Marissa's POVThe disco lights made his eyes sparkle in the middle of a dim place. The music was loud, but its loudness did not disrupt how strong our connection was at this minute. And if I would be given a chance, I wish we could stay like this forever. Because in his eyes, I feel like I am in a haven.“So!” I enthusiastically spoke in the middle of our silence. “To fuck off the world, we will be dancing the night away. We will forget the people who hurt us. Cut off the people who betrayed us. And give our love to ourselves. Just the two of us, Diego.”“Hmmmm,” he hummed and shifted his weight just to face me completely. “I like that. Just the two of us. It could make a perfect movie title.”I laughed when he threw a silly joke like that I had to hit his shoulder. He was so shocked by what I did that he widened his eyes and barked out numerous guffaws. It made a lot of people look at us, but we barely cared.“We will have fun, okay?” I said. “And we will have the best night. Like ev

Chapter Forty-Eight: The Golden Mansion

Marissa's POVHe chuckled and then removed his hands from me. His fingers went through his hair and ruffled it as he sat up on the bed. I gulped because of how handsome he was even early in the morning.Why is God so unfair and all of the beauty of men was rained down on him?!"That's fine. I know that it was not your intention," he justified and smiled a little."Yes!" I answered immediately and I felt my cheeks heating up. "I am so sorry.""But still," he said and winked at me, "you kissed me."I sighed aggressively. "Yes, and I regret it,” she said.He shrugged. “But you have to admit,” he whispered under his breath. “You did like it.”I bit my lower lip and deeply felt the coldness of the aircon. His manly scent was filling my nostrils, and it was addicting. Slowly, he leaned over so that he could near to my face. I do not know why I am not retreating my head. I just let his head move, and when his lips almost landed mine, I covered my mouth with the back of my hand. He furrowed h

Chapter Forty-Nine: My Queen

Marissa's POVI shook my head because I found myself spacing out after staring back at Diego from downstairs. Without any further ado, I proceeded to go down the long, wide staircase. I was petrified by the sounds my heels were making that were echoing inside the mansion.As I walked down, I was still amused by the mansion's beauty and elegance. It was giving off the old money, rich families where Diego belongs. I mean, it is already expected since he comes from a wealthy family and the country knows them in every aspect like businesses and high socio-economic status among others. They are well-respected and reputable as if they are some royalty.He went towards me with a huge grin. I still cannot forget when he decided to just let me go on my way and did not continue kissing me a while ago. He cannot just torture me like that!But well, I have to let it go. Maybe next time will do.Wait, what? How could I think of that? My cheeks flushed red and shook my head indulgently."Are you hu

Chapter Fifty: Surprise

Marissa's POVHe just smiled back and went to another chair that was only in front of me. I was still astonished by how he was slowly changing his attitude towards me. It is like it is a new Diego in front of me, and the arrogant one? He was already gone! No trace from him.I wish he was like this all the time. We could have a good relationship while doing our jobs. No pressure, like all those past years that have gone by as if there was a wall between us.I like what we have right now."Come on. You can eat now," he invited me and pointed his palm on the utensils in front of me. “I am so excited for you to eat them.”I looked at all of the breakfast dishes he had prepared for me, and my stomach growled in starvation. I grabbed one small fork and a dining knife to cut the pancake. When I tasted it with its sauce, it was like I tasted heaven for the first time, making me close my eyes and savor the taste.Tender. Soft. Not sweet but tasty. It even has a good smell!"It's very delicious
