Chapter 29 "Karma"

"What makes you think it's hard for me to tell the truth?” Arwena scoffed bitterly.She stopped trying to push Tandre away. There was no point—he was strong, like a wild animal trapping her in his arms. So, she gathered the courage to face him, even though her legs felt like they might give out.“What exactly is your issue, Tandre? Why are you so mad? What’s it to you if I didn’t tell you that Archie and I have a child?”The tension in the air almost caused Arwena to slip up, but she caught herself just in time. Thankfully, Tandre didn’t seem to notice her hesitation; he only stared at her, his gaze piercing and intense.“Just because we’re friends, does that mean I’m obligated to tell you everything that happens in my life? Even my personal matters?” Arwena asked sharply, her eyes flashing with defiance.For a moment, Tandre was speechless, unsure how to articulate the storm of emotions swirling inside him.Arwena, on the other hand, appeared fearless. She spoke boldly, meeting his g

Chapter 30 "Chance"

"Come on, Archie. Stop staring at your brother. You might melt him with your gaze," said Arwena, pulling Archie, who couldn’t stop staring at Tandre. Archie knew the people with him—Mr. and Mrs. Muzenda, the couple who were also meeting with his mother, which was why they were here."Archie, take Arwena and Nathan home. Come back for me later," Lucia said, her eyes now also on the table where Mr. and Mrs. Muzenda and Tandre were seated."Are you sure, Mom? We can stay longer, and besides, your meeting probably won’t take that long," Archie replied hesitantly.He didn’t want to leave his mother here at the hotel with just his brother. Moreover, Tandre didn’t know their mom would be at this meeting with the Muzenda couple.He feared Tandre might unleash his temper again if something didn’t go his way during their discussion."Archie, I know you’re worried about leaving me here with your brother, but I’ll be fine. I’m sure he’ll behave this time. You know how serious he is when it comes t

Chapter 31 "The Truth"

"Archie, behave yourself!" Lucia scolded, pulling him away from Arwena. "You know there are a lot of people here. You're being way too playful!" Archie scratched his head, realizing they were in a coffee shop with customers watching. "I'm just being affectionate with Wena, Mom. We're not doing anything wrong," he defended, glancing at their staff, who were all smiling and observing him. Meanwhile, Arwena couldn’t help but glance at Tandre, now holding Nathan's hand. She thought he wouldn’t show up and had expected him to avoid her completely after their earlier conversation. "Do you see how they're looking at you? Everyone's attention is on you!" Lucia whispered sharply. "Mom, can't you scold me later?" Archie muttered, his eyes also on Tandre. "What made him bring you here? Has the monster finally softened?" He gestured toward Tandre, who was being led to their table by Nathan. Lucia briefly looked at Arwena before turning back to Archie, curiosity evident on her face.

Chapter 32 "Janica Park"

"You’re paranoid, Tandre. You’re so worked up that all sorts of nonsense is running through your head!” Archie chuckled lightly, noting that Tandre didn’t respond. “Does rejection hit you that hard? Is that why you’re acting like this?” he added. Thankfully, after a brief moment of shock, Archie regained his composure. Even though Tandre’s doubts lingered, Archie’s words at least gave him a moment of calm. Tandre pressed his lips together. He couldn’t believe Archie knew about his conversations with Arwena. Maybe Arwena and Archie love each other, he thought. Archie seems to know everything happening in her life. “It’s better if you leave, Tandre. I don’t know what’s going through your mind or what you’re trying to say, but you should’ve spoken to me or Arwena directly—not to our child. He’s just a kid, Tandre; he has nothing to do with our adult issues! You should’ve thought about that,” Archie said, his tone serious. Nathan quietly listened to their exchange. He was just a chil

Chapter 33 "Girlfriend"

It was as if Tandre had his tail between his legs as he and Ted entered a fine-dining restaurant to meet his ex-girlfriend and her manager.It wasn’t that he was nervous or still had feelings for Janica. He just wasn’t comfortable and didn’t feel good about facing the woman he once loved but had hurt so deeply.Tandre had made many women cry in the past, especially when he was younger. But Janica was the last woman he knew he had devastated, whose world had crumbled because of him.“Tandre, are you okay? Do you feel sick? Is your stomach hurting? Got a headache, or maybe you need to go to the restroom? It’s cold in here, but you’re sweating,” Ted observed, wiping the sweat off his boss’s forehead.Tandre, irritated, slapped Ted’s hand away. Not content with that, he shot him a glare that made it seem as though Ted had committed a grave offense.Scratching his head, Ted sighed. He was only concerned, but it was as if he was the one at fault. The real problem here was his boss—the guy wh

Chapter 34 "Trapped"

Archie scratched his head, still in disbelief that Nathan, at just five years old, already knew the word girlfriend. He glanced over at Arwena, who couldn’t stop staring at the hand of the woman beside his brother.“Hi, handsome,” Janica said with a smile, gently stroking Tandre's arm as if announcing to everyone that she was indeed his girlfriend.“Hello, ma’am,” Nathan responded politely, looking up at the tall woman beside his uncle Tandre. Then he glanced back at his uncle, who still hadn't answered his question.“Uncle Tandre?” Nathan asked again, his voice full of curiosity.“Tandre, the kid’s asking you a question,” Janica said with a smile, now also looking at Tandre as if waiting for his response.But nothing. Tandre didn’t answer, which left Janica disappointed. He couldn’t even say they were just friends. Instead, he remained silent, staring at Nathan with the occasional glance toward Arwena.“Nathan, let’s go,” Arwena said softly, giving Nathan a gentle tug as he resisted s

Chapter 35 "Restless Heart"

Arwena’s eyes and lips tightened as Tandre slowly leaned his face toward hers. She held her breath, waiting for his lips to meet hers, her fingers and toes curling in anticipation.But after what felt like an eternity, their lips still hadn't touched. Frustrated, she opened her eyes, only to find Tandre grinning, clearly amused by her reaction.“Are you crazy? Move away!” Arwena snapped, embarrassed, as she avoided his gaze. It wasn’t just embarrassment—it felt like she was melting with shame. She had assumed he was going to kiss her, but he hadn’t.“Now you're pushing me away, but earlier, it was obvious you were waiting for my lips to touch yours,” Tandre teased, biting his lower lip playfully.“Idiot!” Arwena retorted, pushing him again. “Waiting? In your dreams! Just back off!” She stammered, shoving him once more, but Tandre’s grin only widened.“I did back off, but you came closer. You walked in here, practically asking for a kiss,” he said, pulling her by the waist.Arwena’s eye

Chapter 36 "Threat"

Tandre and his assistant, Ted, had arrived at the mansion some time ago, and since then, Ted had been observing his boss with growing bewilderment. How could he not be puzzled? Tandre had been acting strangely—constantly touching his lips, smiling uncontrollably, and staring at the large chandelier hanging from the ceiling.Ted found himself glancing at the chandelier too, half-expecting to see something extraordinary. But there was nothing. It was as if Tandre was seeing something invisible to everyone else, leaving Ted wondering if his boss had lost his mind. Now, Ted felt like he might be losing his mind too.“Mr. Tandre, are you alright?” Ted finally asked, unable to hold back his curiosity. But Tandre didn’t seem to hear him, as if he had gone deaf. “Mr. Tandre, do you need anything? Water, wine, or sleeping pills? I can ask Manang to bring them over,” Ted offered helpfully.Ted knew about Tandre’s trouble sleeping—how he often resorted to wine or sleeping pills to get through the

Chapter 37 "Birthday Party"

The next day, Arwena deliberately chose to arrive late, avoiding the superficial conversations she dreaded with her relatives.When she, Archie, and Nathan finally arrived at her mother’s birthday party, their entrance immediately drew everyone’s attention.As they stepped into her parents’ yard, whispers began to ripple through the crowd, intensifying as they strolled through the large garden where other guests were eating. All eyes were on them—especially Arwena.It was no surprise. Besides her natural beauty, she was wearing a white off-shoulder, long-sleeve lace midi dress that made her look stunning. Her simple yet elegant aura captivated everyone present.Some guests even forgot their food, too mesmerized to eat, particularly Arwena’s relatives, who hadn’t seen her in years.“Is that Arwena?” One of her cousins whispered enviously.“Yes, it is! Wow, she’s changed,” another murmured.“She does look gorgeous when she dresses up,” added a third, their jealousy barely concealed.“Wel

Chapter 38 "Scandal"

Arwena was taken aback by her father's question, which blamed her for what had happened to Farah.Meanwhile, her mother appeared indifferent toward Farah; her attention focused entirely on her cell phone as if she were reading something urgent. Occasionally, she shook her head and cast sharp glances in Farah's direction.“What happened between you two, Arwena? How did it come to this?” her father asked again, his piercing gaze locked on her—a look of disappointment that suggested he truly believed she was capable of hurting someone.In Arwena's mind, she couldn’t fathom how quickly her father’s attitude toward Farah had shifted. Earlier, he had been cold, but now he was expressing concern.Instead of responding, Arwena stayed silent, her eyes fixed on her former friend, who was sobbing while clutching her bleeding hand. Farah's hand trembled, signaling significant pain.“Jake, what are you standing there for? Help Farah!” her father barked.Jake moved toward Farah without hesitation, b
