Chapter 21: Meeting Him Again
I was exhausted yesterday that I slept without a hassle. Totally different from the past few months. Since I received a letter from the court about six months ago that Liam didn't leave Bailey International to me, I became restless. Added to that was dad's passing and then this current company's situation. All of these drained me to the core.I stretched my hands in the air and inhaled the fresh air in the morning. I even forgot to close the window last night, hence, the winter breeze welcomed my presence."Great morning, sunshine!" my alarm clock on the side table spoke as it ticked to six.That's been my morning routine since, waking up at six and exercising before I would head to the dining room and have my breakfast. I was not really a breakfast person but one particular individual in the world taught me how important to fill your stomach in the morning.And that individual was the one I met yesterday...again. After five years.I got off my bed and planned to head to the gym that'

Chapter 22: The Revelation
In the afternoon, I had an uninvited visitor. It's Guinevere and she looked stunning in her off-shouldered knitted light pink sweater and blue skinny jeans. She paired her outfit with knee-length and three-inch-high-heel white boots and her long straight hair was ponytailed, it contoured her oval shape face. On her earlobes were round earrings shaded in metallic gold. Her beauty was effortless."Mrs. Bailey!" her voice was calm and angelic, too."Good afternoon, Ms. Basile. May I help you?" I asked in return.Knowing she was Desmond's current girlfriend made me feel unconscious that I had to secretly glance at the glass wall for my reflection. Shame! I was just in my simple home one-piece dress, decent enough but couldn't be compared to hers. I didn't also comb my hair yet. Hadn't showered since yesterday yet."Actually, it's the other way around. May I come in?" she smiled briefly.I nodded and stepped aside giving her a way. "Let's talk on the 3rd floor. The lift is this way!" I rai

Chapter 23: Hello, Old Friend
I glanced in the direction of that manly voice and saw a gorgeous man in uniform. Beside him was a fierce-looking woman holding a long leather stick."You okay, Ma'am?" the woman asked, her smiles reassuring me that I was safe now."Yes, I'm fine now. Thanks!" I replied sighing deeply and striding between the two officers. I knew the guy and I was so glad to see him again."All right, you three, are staying at the station tonight!" he shouted at the three hooligans who were about to run away but the police officers scared them. "Don't waste your energy assholes!" he took his gun and raised it in the air. The three knelt on the ground right away."Part, you know that's against our jurisdiction!" the woman beside him sternly uttered."No jurisdictions for me when it comes to my family and friends, Part!" he replied then glanced at me. "Welcome back, Amy!" he also whispered."Thanks, Adam!" I whispered back. "I'm glad you're here!" I took a glance at the woman who was now busy shoving th

Chapter 24: Her True Feelings
Desmond POV.."I dropped the bomb!" my señor assistant, Guinevere, dropped herself on the couch in a sitting position and crossed her long slender legs while her exhausted face frowned at me.I smiled at her expression and turned off my laptop for a while. "You know what I always tell you. You're gonna get a lot of wrinkles if you won't stop frowning!" and she frowned even more.She crossed her arms over her chest and then sighed, perhaps the longest deepest inhale I had ever heard from her. "That's the last straw, Des. If she still doesn't want your proposal then it's her loss!" she then got up and sauntered towards me. The swaying of her hips and sultry walks could fall any man on their knees, I should say. Guinevere was an ethereal beauty."Why do you wanna pursue her anyway?" she leaned her body forward showing me a portion of her richness which, to be honest, was indeed an asset but no! I would never do that to her. Guinevere was like a sister to me. "She hurt you and her fathe

Chapter 25: His Romeo Was Back
As we exited the lift going to the Chairman's office, we heard a commotion in every cubicle. The staff was in their spare time gabbing about their bosses. Alden snorted and shook his head out of annoyance."Hey, you!" he then grabbed the shoulder of a male employee who was busy whispering with the other ladies. The poor lad clamped his mouth with his hand and jumped on his feet."Goodness! You're so handsome!" the male staff widened his eyes upon seeing my bodyguard. "Oh, my! Two gorgeous sons of Adam!" he added when he saw me making my dim expression darker.His female friends quieted when they saw how stern we were. Joking wasn't exactly our flavor of the day today. We needed answers!"Yeah! Save your adulation. Answer my question, son of I don't know!" Alden cut in. "What's going on inside the Chairman's office?" the press on the lad's shoulder had gone deeper making him wince in pain."Ahm! Mrs. de la Frontera and Mrs. Bailey are argumenting!" he twitched his lips, Alden had no in

Chapter 26: Screams of Jealousy
I dropped her onto my wide couch making her wince in pain as she massaged her hips and me, earning a dagger stare and curses from her."You asshole. You pig. What do you think of me? A sack of apples? Damn you!" she tried to get up but her hips could have really been hurt.I touched the Italian leather couch and grimaced at its hardness. "In my defense, it's Alden who chose this couch so I didn't know that it's hard. Also, honestly, a sack of apples was the first thing that came to my mind when I threw you on my shoulder. So, congratulations. You've got the right answer!" I turned around and pursed my lips when a cushion hit the back of my head."Fvck you!" she yelled.I twirled back and angled my eyebrow at the glaring woman with messy hair and ruined makeup. At least, she learned to wipe her nose...with the hem of her blouse. Eww!!!"I'll add that to my bucket list. To fvck me as your request. Coz that's not gonna happen today, Señorita. I am exhausted!" I cringed my nose and shrugg

Chapter 27: Marriage for Convenience
Leah POV..The day had come!Within just half an hour, I was going to be Mrs. Zaborowski. I inhaled and exhaled at the realization that would come to me. It could change my life for a year, it could be for the better or worse."Señorita, any nervousness?!" Elsa, who served to be one of my witnesses, nudged my wandering thought."Hmm! Not really. Just a little!" I replied as I glanced at her with a smile.She then clasped my hand and smiled back at me. "You're doing this not only for your father but for us. Thank you!" teary-eyed, she uttered."I'm always grateful to have you in my life, Elsa. You and Iñigo!" I couldn't hold back my tears as some leaked from the corner of my eyes."Ops! No more crying. You might ruin your makeup!" she also chuckled and gently wiped the tears on my cheek. "Where's Iñigo, by the way?" she glanced around and then stared back at me."You look beautiful!" she gazed at me from head to foot.My image was simple. I just tied my hair in a bun and left some st

Chapter 28: Forgetting the Task
A gentle knock on the door woke me up and as I opened my eyes, it was already dark inside my room. I groped my phone on the side table and checked the time."Oh, shoot!" I hastily got up and almost tripped when I noticed I was still wearing my shoes. It was already 6 PM and I was supposed to be preparing for Desmond's dinner. I immediately took off my shoes and opened the door."Yes, Donna. I know. I'm going down now!" I cut Donna off before she could even say a word."Okay, Mrs. Zaborowski. He's in his room now. He will go down after about 30 minutes!" Donna explained, I nodded right away and closed the door.I opened the closet that was next to the bathroom and took out a pair of white cotton shorts and a light pink shirt. Since my hair was tied in a bun, I just let it that way. I didn't have time to fix myself in the mirror, I only have 25 minutes left."Hurry! Hurry, Amy Leah! You still have to think about what to cook for dinner!" I mumbled to myself and strode to the kitchen. "H

Chapter 29: Stupid Reason
Desmond POV..I was mad at her. Every time I remembered the photos that an unknown someone sent to me on the night before our civil wedding, I was fuming mad. I told myself, I shouldn't get affected but what was I doing?Those photos of her and my best friend, Adam, hugging each other in front of the bar, getting in her car together, going to their resort, and him staying there till morning, I felt like I wanted to punch him that night.But engulfed with hatred and probably, jealousy, I went to the bar that night and picked a random girl to vent my rage on her. I had a one-night stand with a woman named, Emily but when I realized what I had done, I left her at the hotel and went straight to Guinevere's place.I told her everything and she was, too, shocked and upset at my actions."Fvck it!" I swiped away all of the documents on my desk. I was in de la Frontera at the moment and since I already owned this place, I controlled everything around me, including the two assistants that Di

Chapter 30: It's All Right to Have a Mistress
I woke up at 9 in the evening when I felt a cool breeze blow on my back, an indication that the man lying beside me was not there. I moved aside to see the space beside me was empty."He's up!" I mumbled under my breath.Would he get mad at me for disobeying his first rule? I stroked his pillow, his natural scent was left on it and I couldn't help but imagine him still lying beside me with a doting smile."Ah!" I got up abruptly upon realizing maybe he got hungry and that he was in the kitchen now. I already broke rule number 1 and didn't intend to break another rule.I strode to the kitchen and there was no one there. Of course, the dining room. He could be there, yet the place was empty. Where could he be I thought. I heard Donna's voice humming from the laundry room and I ambled hastily to ask about her boss."Hey, you're up!" she smiled at me. She was separating Desmond's clothes, from the white ones to the colored ones."Yeah!" I smiled back and took a glimpse at the collared whi
