Chapter 10

Dominic’s POVI had reviewed the statement that was to be released, and while it seemed fine, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it might not be enough. Knowing the Sullivan family personally, I knew how easily something like this could make their blood boil. I had met Denver Sullivan before through my father, and I knew what he was capable of when his pride was at stake. This wasn’t just a business matter—it was personal for him.I couldn’t stop thinking about Sofia. I wasn’t sure what was going on in her life, but I knew that if this issue escalated, she might bear the brunt of the blame for not handling it better. The pressure was building, and I feared the worst.I stood up from my desk, intending to go to her office to check on her, but before I could take a step, the clerk stopped me."Attorney Montague," she said, "Mrs. Romano is in the boardroom with Mr. Sullivan right now."A knot tightened in my stomach. I quickly made my way toward the boardroom, my curiosity piqued. As I ap

Chapter 11

Sofia’s POV“We truly appreciate your hard work in preventing the issue from escalating, Sofia. We simply can’t afford to let Mr. Sullivan take this to court. If they decide to withdraw the funding for the new campus building, that’s acceptable; we have emergency funds set aside for situations like this. Besides, I’m confident that Gabriel will successfully secure the deal with Mr. Merendez in California, which will allow us to expand Romano University there,” Dad Hector said, his tone steady and confident. Today was a day off, and Gabriel’s parents had kindly invited me to dinner with my parents.“Thanks, Dad,” I answered quietly, my attention absorbed by the pasta I had ordered, trying to hide the mix of relief and nervousness I felt.“I’m glad to see you’re starting to get your bearings, Sofia. Working at Romano University is a solid first step for you to get a sense of the corporate world. It’ll prepare you for bigger responsibilities in the future. Eventually, you’ll be running t

Chapter 12

Dominic’s POV"After completing her college education, she has maintained a notably private life. The only insights available about her are through her social media presence, which primarily features videos and posts showcasing her passion for dance. However, it’s worth noting that her account has remained inactive for the past three weeks, which is unusual given her previous regular updates. Another significant detail is her marriage to Gabriel Romano on February 21, 2020, which took place just before her graduation. Beyond this, very little is known about her personal life or activities since then."That was the only information Jace, my private investigator, gave me.“Thanks, Jace!” I said before ending the call.I couldn’t help but start overthinking after what Jace told me. February 21, 2020—she got married that day, which felt a little strange. And then, her social media going silent for exactly three weeks, right around the time she started working at Romano University? It migh

Chapter 13

Dominic’s POVSofia was so caught up in the moment at the party, her laughter and joy so infectious, that she didn’t even realize how much she had drunk. It was the first time I had seen her so carefree, so unburdened—genuinely happy—since we’d reconnected after five long years. In those years, I’d watched her carry the weight of responsibilities, the stress of life pressing down on her. But tonight, she seemed to shed all of that, glowing with freedom, even if it was just for a few hours. But she had drunk too much and passed out.Now, I was stuck, unsure of what to do next. I just couldn’t take Sofia home in that state. I didn’t want to get into any trouble, and I didn’t want the people at her house—the guard, the nanny, anyone—to think negatively about her. So, I decided to bring her to my place instead. I gently helped her into the passenger seat, buckling her seatbelt as carefully as I could.As I started driving to my condo, I occasionally glanced over at her, checking on her fa

Chapter 14

Sofia’s POVI woke up with a heavy dizziness, the kind that made my head spin the moment I opened my eyes. The familiar wave of nausea followed, and I barely kept myself from throwing up. As my vision cleared, I realized I wasn’t in my own bed, but in an unfamiliar room, with walls I couldn’t place. Panic surged through me as I stood too quickly, my legs unsteady, heart racing. I instinctively looked down at myself—still wearing the same clothes from last night. My mind scrambled, trying to pull together the hazy fragments of what had happened. The last thing I could remember clearly was the party and I was with Dominic, the laughter, the music, but everything after that was a blur. What had I done? How did I end up here?I quickly got up from the bed and noticed my heels on the floor. Without thinking, I grabbed them and hurriedly made my way out of the room. As soon as I stepped into the hallway, I froze. Dominic stood right in front of me, and I almost lost my breath at the sight o

Chapter 15

Gabriel’s POVI gazed into Stela’s eyes, her fingers tracing the contours of my chest. The city lights outside cast a dim glow over the room, and the soft hum of the air conditioner created a soothing background noise. We lay tangled in the hotel sheets, our bodies warm and entwined.Her voice was husky as she whispered, "You're so bad, Gabriel. You're a married man." I smiled, pulling her closer, my lips brushing against her ear. "I'm not yours to judge," I whispered back, my tone low and playful. "Besides, I'm not the one who's complaining."Stela’s eyes sparkled with excitement, and she wrapped her arms around me, pulling me deeper into the moment. Her skin was soft and warm, and I felt a rush of desire as I pulled her closer. I felt no guilt, no remorse. Only the thrill of being with someone new, and the excitement of exploring the unknown.As we moved together, the world outside seemed to disappear, leaving just the two of us, lost in the heat of the moment. I knew it was a risk,

Chapter 16

Sofia’s POVThe car jerked forward as we crawled through another stretch of Manila traffic. I glanced at my watch—barely eight in the morning, but I already felt exhausted.Beside me, Dominic drove with his usual calm, one hand on the wheel, the other resting lazily on the gear shift. He looked completely unbothered, as if we weren’t on our way to defend the university in a labor case that had the potential to spiral into a PR nightmare.He had offered me a ride to the NLRC, and I accepted—not because I needed one, but because working on this case had somehow made us more familiar with each other. Lately, we’d been seeing each other almost every day, either preparing for the hearing or handling the legal paperwork for the university’s new building project. I can say we grew closer after he invited me to the party. There’s something about him that puts me at ease, making me trust him more than anyone else, despite the short time we’ve known each other.I let out a slow breath, pressing

Chapter 17

Gabriel’s POV“Thank you for the great presentation, Mr. Romano. I’m beyond impressed. Our team is excited to work with you,” Mr. Merendez said, and I felt a rush of excitement flood through me.“Thank you so much, Mr. Merendez. Our legal team has already drafted the preliminary agreement for you,” I responded, my mind focused on the next steps, eager to move forward.“Good, I’ll have my legal team review it,” he said, his voice steady and commanding. “But understand this: I’m not just financing a university expansion. I’m investing in a brand, in a legacy. Romano University has name recognition, but in the U.S. market, you’ll need me to truly make an impact.”His words landed heavy, a reminder of the stakes we were playing for. This wasn’t just about numbers and agreements—it was about carving out a place in the competitive U.S. market, about making sure Romano University didn’t just survive, but thrived in a new environment. The weight of his offer wasn’t lost on me.“We’ll make sur

Chapter 18

Gabriel’s POVThe fight was still fresh in my mind as the bouncers wrestled us apart. My body was still vibrating with adrenaline, my pulse still running wild. I had never been the type to back down, especially when I was feeling invincible. But as the officers arrived and the flashing lights lit up the scene, I started to feel the reality of what I had just gotten myself into.I was shoved into the back of a police car, my hands cuffed behind my back. Denver, standing at a distance, his face a mix of disbelief and frustration, shot me a look I couldn’t quite place. I barely registered it. All I could think about was the fight—how I had been so sure of myself. I had been Gabriel Romano, heir to one of the most respected universities in the p-Philippines. No one could touch me, right?Wrong.The ride to the police station felt like an eternity. I could still feel the woman’s eyes on me before the fight broke out, a half-smile on her face that I’d taken as a sign of interest. But all th

Chapter 19

Sofia’s POVGabriel called late this afternoon, his voice smooth and businesslike, telling me that he'd be extending his stay in California for a few more days because something had come up with one of his meetings. He assured me that everything was under control, and that I should take care of things at home in the meantime. I simply agreed, though the truth was, I was relieved that he would be gone a little longer.I wasn’t about to admit it, but I had started to enjoy his absence. It wasn’t that I wished ill upon him, but his absence gave me the freedom to breathe. To exist without the constant weight of his expectations hanging over me. And in that space, something unexpected had begun to shift inside me.Dominic.He had always been there, of course, a colleague—professional, friendly, and always so approachable. But as the days passed, I found myself looking forward to our encounters more than I’d ever imagined. I couldn’t pinpoint when it started, but I could feel it now—the way
