Sophia does not have a choice and this was not the time to take her precious seconds to think about having second thoughts. She badly needed help and there was no other person that could give her that help other than Navier Ortega. There was no room for her pride and her second thoughts in this situation. She was desperate. Navier Ortega is literally one of the richest persons in the country and meeting him like this would have been impossible if they did not encounter each other that night. She called that night "unfortunate", but maybe this was the sign from the Universe that everything really has its reasons for happening. That unfortunate night was still a blessing among other things. She was meant to save him because she would need help from a person like him. Yet, she cannot remove the risks upon accepting his help, but she was more than willing to swallow all those risks. If anyone finds out that she has contacted Navier Ortega for this kind of situation and it reaches her bo
How many books, novels, and short stories has Sophia encountered with this very trope of fake relationships? The answer: she cannot even remember anymore. From girlfriends for hire to even being proxy fiancées, she read it all for sure! But having it happen to her? Her brain was starting to malfunction trying to absorb that information. Dating someone you barely know was off on its own but do not all relationships start from scratch? There were a lot of things to say about this setup, but all she was sure of was that she never liked the endings of these kinds of stories. Yet, they are not in any novel or any story, this is reality. This is their reality. If she was offered a million dollars to believe that this would happen to her in any part of her lifetime, she would have just laughed at whoever offered her the money. “C-Can I know first what this fake relationship is for, sir?” Navier chuckled and shook his head. “Navier. I thought you agreed and understood to address me as Navi
When you really have the money, nothing is impossible.Sophia still could not sink in everything that just happened today and she doubts that her sleep will ever come to her any time near. She feels like her whole body is still full of the adrenaline she had all throughout the day, that she already lost her ability to feel her own tiredness and stress. She is just mentally numb for anything except for the scene that kept playing in her mind—her and Navier signing a contract together.When Navier said that he will not waste any more time, he meant it. He literally cal
When Navier said that he paid—he literally paid for whatever Sophia and Jelly was having, and he almost meant that he paid his side of their deal. She was so stunned that she only finally realized what was happening when she got in Navier’s car and Jelly was waving one last time before going her way.“W-What…?” She blinks a couple of times.Navier chuckles and pulls her own seat belt to buckle it in for her. “Did it finally sink into you that you’re with me now?”
Sophia could not believe how smooth Navier is. He handled their situation by answering all of the orphanage’s sisters with so much ease and naturality in him. He is just basically stating facts yet even she felt like they have known each other for so long.The only lie that Navier made is that he mentioned that they met a year ago, but the rest is pure facts and their actual reality. He told them how they met at her workplace; she was a hostess in the Soul’s Secret and how she took care of him when he was drunk. He effortlessly gave them the truth and cut off more questions into saying that the rest was history and that this is their first day as an official couple.
Navier is feeling very good that all his research did a great job with his and Sophia’s first date. Yes, he really did a lot of research because he does not want to mess their first day. He was thinking that it would be a great move for him to actually know things on his own first and then have Sophia experience it with him. It was very fulfilling to him to say the least.He never really pictured himself enjoying meeting new people; in fact, he hated meeting other people before and that was his main reason for just letting his sister Nicole do all the outside of the country work and meetings. But today was a little different given that he met Sophia’s family.
“Did you know about this?” Nicole did not mean to use her business voice, but she already did. Clearing her throat, she hopes she will not sound as brute as she did the first time. “Did you know about Navier and Miss Sophia Diwa?”Sage chuckles, clearly having the that-is-what-I-thought look when she corrected her own tone. “What exactly did you find out about them?”She lets herself inside his home—yes, she drove almost thirty minutes just to invade this man’s privacy and trespass his penthouse like the thug she is just to c
Sophia has been staring at her shoe for at least over half an hour now. She feels tired from the number of clients she needed to face this night, but this is only the time she can have to talk with their big boss, Mr. Vlad. Going home is not an option because she cannot prolong this anymore.They are not banned from having relationships as long as it does not affect their work here in the club. Other personal problems cannot also be brought into their workplace and it definitely includes school work and being depressed for something that has to do with one’s relationship problems. Work is work and you have to be the hostess mode of yourself outside your personal being. You are a hostess of the club and not whoever you
