Prologue

Sofia's POVIt’s 5 PM, and cheerleading practice has just ended. A wave of nervousness washes over me as I realize how little time I have before my 6 PM meeting with Dominic. I can feel the excitement building inside me, but the pressure of possibly being late makes it hard to focus. I rush to the shower, scrubbing away the sweat of practice as quickly as I can, the sound of water almost drowned out by my thoughts of him. The rush of adrenaline, the thrill of being near him again, fills my every sense, but the minutes are slipping away too fast. After getting dressed in a hurry, I jump into my car, my heart racing—not just with anticipation, but with the constant fear of running late. The road stretches out before me, endless and unfamiliar, but I can’t help but smile at the thought of being with him. I’m almost there.And yet, in the blink of an eye, everything shifts. As I’m driving, my heart pounding in rhythm with the beating of my thoughts, a sudden jolt shakes me from my daydrea

Chapter 1

Sofia's POV5 Years laterI lose myself in the rhythm of the music, every beat syncing with the pulse of my body as I dance in front of the mirror in my studio. The camera is rolling, capturing every movement, every expression, as I create content for my social media. It’s more than just a routine; it’s a way to share a piece of myself, even if the world out there doesn’t know the whole story. After five years of living with the void of forgotten memories, dancing is the one thing that keeps me anchored. It’s the only thing that has consistently felt like mine, the only thing that makes sense.I can’t remember my past. One day, I woke up in a hospital bed, my mind a blur, and the face of my husband was the first thing I saw. Everything changed after that accident—everything I knew, everything I was, disappeared. But there’s always been this unsettling feeling, like a shadow in my life, telling me that something isn’t quite right. Yet, dancing—dancing is the one thing that has stayed w

Chapter 2

Sofia's POVMy body aches so much that I can barely stand due to the injuries I sustained from Gab last night. I'm here in our room, and the doctor he called to observe my condition just left. I was lying weakly on our bed when he came out of the bathroom after showering. He showed no expression when he saw me awake, only heading to his closet to pick something to wear for the office.I remained silent, staring at the ceiling, until he finished getting dressed and was ready to leave. He pulled several thousand pesos from his wallet and placed it on the bed."Get some rest, and if you need anything or want to buy something, use the money," The words feel hollow, like an afterthought, as if he’s already forgotten the chaos of last night. As if the pain I’m in doesn’t matter. Without waiting for a response, without even glancing at me again, he turns and leaves, the door clicking shut behind him, leaving me alone in the deafening silence of the room.As soon as the door clicked shut behin

Chapter 3

Dominic's POVToday marks my contract signing with Romano University, a place that holds a special meaning for me. I was once a scholar here, studying Political Science, and it’s hard to believe that it’s been five years since I left Manila. A lot has changed since then.After discovering my real father, he took me from the orphanage where I had been living, and from there, my life took a new direction. I moved to Bataan to continue my Law School journey, and last year, I was fortunate enough to be ranked 8th in the bar exam. Though I’ve only been practicing law for less than a year, I’ve already had the privilege of winning multiple cases, including corporate, land, and annulment cases.Romano University has offered me a role in their legal department, as well as a position as faculty in the Law School. The offer is competitive, but truthfully, the reason I accepted isn’t just for the opportunity it presents—it’s also a chance to return to Manila. I’ve been practicing law privately,

Chapter 4

Sofia's POVToday, Gabriel advised me to visit the legal department at Romano University. He had already spoken to his father, and my contract was ready to be signed. I arrived in the morning, feeling a quiet sense of purpose as I entered the office."Hi, I’m here to sign my contract," I said to the clerk, who greeted me with a smile. She seemed to be expecting me, which made the process feel a little smoother."Alright, Miss Sofia. Please have a seat while I get your contract," she said, stepping away to retrieve the documents.I sat down, and as I glanced over, I noticed a man sitting nearby with a contract in his hands. He was looking at me, and for some reason, I felt a strange sense of familiarity, like I had seen him somewhere before, but I couldn’t quite place it. I offered him a brief smile, unsure if I should say something, but I chose to sit next to him.A few minutes later, the clerk returned, handing me the contract. I signed the papers quickly, not bothering to scrutinize

Chapter 5

Sofia's POV"Hi, Mrs. Romano!" I was startled when he caught me staring at him. I froze, unsure of what excuse to make."S-sorry, I was just amazed watching you eat while reading your book," I stammered, offering an awkward smile."It's okay," he said, chuckling lightly. "Would you mind if I join you?"I simply nodded, feeling a little flustered. He grabbed his tray of food and book, then walked over to my table and sat down across from me. As he settled in, I couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. We had only met earlier that morning during the contract signing, and now here he was, sitting across from me in the cafeteria. He was a law school professor, and I was the Vice President of Administration—two very different roles, yet here we were, sharing a lunch.After a brief silence, he took a bite of his food and glanced up at me. "I didn’t expect to see you here," he said, his tone casual and easygoing. "How’s your day been so far?"I felt relieved that he was starting the conversa

Chapter 6

Sofia's POV"Where did you put the funds?" Hector, Gabriel’s father, nearly had a vein pop in anger as he tried to get Gabriel to confess where the missing money had gone, which was meant for the expansion of the Main Campus of Romano University. We were in the hotel room of Daddy Hector, where Gabriel's birthday party was being held. This was supposed to be the night when he would hand over the company to him.But the tension hanging in the air was thick with something far more dangerous."Are you just going to sit there and say nothing?" Hector’s voice was low, but his anger was palpable, vibrating through the room. He was seething, and I could feel the intensity of his gaze burning through Gabriel. My own breath caught in my chest as I watched the scene unfold.Gabriel remained silent, his eyes never meeting his father’s. The silence in the room stretched unbearably long before Mom Sylvia stepped in, her voice steady but laced with anxiety."Hector, stop," she said, her hand gently

Chapter 7

Dominic's POVThe legal department was invited to attend the birthday party of Gabriel Romano, the Romano Heir—a person I can’t stand. One of the perks of working in the legal field, or being part of the legal department, is the sense of importance we’re given, often being invited to events even when it’s not necessary. Our Legal Chief Officer strongly encouraged me to attend, suggesting it would be a good opportunity to mingle with colleagues since I’m new. He also mentioned that we’d meet attractive lawyers from different branches of Romano University, but honestly, that’s not something I’m particularly interested in."Montague, you're here!" I turned around at the familiar, sharp voice calling my name while adjusting my suit. To my surprise, it was Marielli, my college buddy. I hadn’t expected to see her, and I couldn’t help but feel a wave of nostalgia wash over me."Melendez!" I said, surprised, a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth.I greeted her with a warm hug and a kiss o

Chapter 8

Sofia's POVI had just finished a meeting with the University President and the board of trustees. A new university building project was in the works, and we had discussed the budget. The project had to be completed within two years, and the responsibility of overseeing the construction and everything that came with it had been delegated to me. The weight of it all felt overwhelming.I let out a quiet sigh as I pushed open the door of the meeting room, stepping out into the hallway.As soon as I did, I spotted Mr. Montague, dressed in his usual suit, a thick book in hand, walking toward me."Mr. Montague," I called out as he almost walked past me.It had been a few days since Gabriel's party, and I’d been wanting to talk to him. This was the first time I had seen him since that night. I supposed he had been busy."Yes, Mrs. Romano?" he asked, his expression unreadable."Can we talk?" I asked."Sure," he replied, still expressionless.We headed to the university rooftop for privacy.Be

Chapter 9

Sofia's POV"Attorney Velasquez is on leave, Mrs. Romano. Let me review the statement before we release it," Mr. Montague said as he approached me when I entered the legal department. I had been looking for Attorney Velasquez, as I knew she was the one usually in charge of reviewing the statements the University was releasing."Thank you, Mr. Montague, but can you please stop calling me Mrs. Romano? You can call me Sofia," I said with a soft smile, trying to ease the formal tone of the situation."If you stop calling me Mr. Montague," he teased, a playful spark in his eyes. I found myself smiling more than I expected. Despite only knowing each other for a short time, I felt oddly at ease around him, as if I could just be myself without any pretenses."Okay, Attorney Montague," I replied with mock seriousness, trying to maintain a straight face, but I saw the slight exhale from him, a sign of his amusement, which made me laugh."Okay, Sofia. I’ll get it back to you once I’m done," he s
