"What did you do to him Sandra? He looks like a walking zombie!" Bammie chuckled as she watched Sebastian marching lifelessly to the elevator.Sandra beamed as she recalled his reaction earlier inside her office. She was expecting it, but still, she can't help but be genuinely amazed by how she could affect the guy. "I think Sebastian Lee is dead," she stated with a wide grin.Dominic on the other hand, narrowed his eyes on Sandra. He saw her stepsister trailing behind Sebastian with a satisfied grin plastered on her face earlier, while the poor guy looked like a robot walking with a flabbergasted expression. He knew right hen that she did something to him and that's what he was about to ask but Bammie beat him."Did you rape him?" Dominic gasped exaggeratedly as his eyes widened in utter shock. "Please tell me you didn't!" he immediately exclaimed as he shook Sandra's shoulders and forcing her to agree with him.Meanwhile, Sandra just laughed at her stepbrother's over dramatic react

He didn't hear anything from her, other than work related and her rumors with Dominic Chua, that unfortunately was still circulating. He was lying to himself if he says he wasn't bothered at all because damn he was. He felt unsettled and couldn't even sleep at night for thinking too much, and because of the pang of guilt he felt for lying and using Carmina as an excuse to save himself. He just realized how selfish he was for thinking only himself, not even thinking of the aftermath and now he couldn't ignore it anymore.He clicked his tongue w
Gotta Be You Chapter 24: Red Lipstick
Christian Choi was young and masculine. His arms were full of tattoos that gave him a badboy aura. If Sandra didn't call him, he would mistaken him as a celebrity. "Sebastian Lee, right?" Christian approached him. He could only nod. "Sandra said that I should get your opinion about the story line. So, I'm here to invite you to watch the drafts and choose which one you think should be included in the music video," he explained then instructed one of the staff to play the first scene on the screen in front of him. Sebastian complied obediently and took advantage to point out the scenes he thought were best. If he could help them save money and time, he will do it. It's for his song anyway."Two? Really?" Christian frowned then tilted his head and looked at him in amusement. "And here I thought everything was boring," he muttered while shaking his head. He then tapped Sebastian's shoulder and mumbled thank you before leaving him alone again.Sebastian's brows furrowed while his gaze

Bammie was giggling alone when Sandra went back to her seat. She raised her eyebrows to her best friend and noticed the vacant seat in between them."Where's Sebastian?" she quiried."He left without saying anything," Bammie grinned with amused expression as she can't get over how Sebastian reacted.Sandra's forehead slightly creased as she tilted her head. "Why?" "He's jealous!" Bammie giggled again, "If you just saw it Sandra, you'll gonna take back your words about him" Sandra shook her head as the corner of her lips tugged upward. There's no way she's gonna have a change of heart. She's a woman with principles and of her words."Sebastian doesn't like me," she pointed out. She felt her heart constricted with her last words all of a sudden. She knew that it's not just her pride that had been stepped on. It was more than her big ego that really saddened her. She's never been indenial to herself with her feelings towards Sebastian. She knew that what she felt for him was not just
Gotta Be You Chapter 26: Drunk
Dim and colorful lights, loud music, smell of smoke and alcohol welcomed Sebastian as he stepped inside the club where Bammie threw the victory party for the success of her first single collaboration with Levi."This is the room, Sir" the waiter said and led him in front of the closed door then left. Sebastian stared at it and internally debating whether to knock or leave the place. He really didn't want to go and he tried to convince himself to just go back home and sleep. However, he knew he's just deceiving himself if he says he'd like to be alone because he was certain he's going to regret it as much as he regretted refusing Simon to go with him earlierHe groaned and ruffled his hair. His heart thumped wildly as stood there frozen on his spot. He can faintly hear the noise behind the door and it made him more nervous knowing that the room were already filled with people he didn't personally know except for his friends, Simon, Bammie and Sandra. He took a deep breath before ex
Gotta Be You Chapter 27: Body Shot
Bammie was beaming crazily at Sebastian after mentioning pointing at Levi. "Sandra was bothered after doing his make up for the scene 11," she said with her eyes glittering.Sebastian didn't respond but his eyes never left Sandra again. His mind wondered as to why did that freaking lips marking bothered her? Did she felt something while doing that? Or did she freaking liked kissing Levi's face, neck and upper body that much she can't forget it? He shook his head and dismissed the thought quickly. He groaned inwardly and massaged his temples. He didn't like the idea of Sandra liking someone else. "When.. will you confess the truth to Sandra?" Bammie questioned all of a sudden after a long silence. "The time is ticking, Sebastian. The longer you wait, the lower your chances are to be forgiven" she said without waiting for his answer. Sebastian stared at drunk Bammie. He will suspect her just acting like drunkard, but her flushed face and slurred words was enough reason to debunk his
Gotta Be You Chapter 28: Moment of Truth
Sandra's steps abruptly halted when someone blocked her way. Her brows furrowed as she saw Carmina was looking at her with the same expression like she'd always seen years ago."Sandra.." she trailed.Sandra raised her eyebrows and crossed her arms despite feeling a bit dizzy with the alcohol she had taken. "Are you here to confront me of what I did to Sebastian?" she asked straightforwardly. She knew the two didn't have a romantic relationship but she's not certain of what Carmina was feeling towards Sebastian.Carmina quickly shook her head as an answer then fished out something inside her chanel tote bag and handed it to her. "I guessed this is yours?"Sandra squinted her eyes on the pink notebook. She knew that notebook damn well to recognize it even if she's intoxicated. It's the missing notebook she's been looking for. "Where did you get this?" she frowned as she grabbed the notebook from her hand."I saw that in Sebastian's studio. I apologize for reading it because I had to k
Gotta Be You Chapter 29: Realize
Sebastian kept his eyes closed as one particular song kept on playing repeatedly in his studio. It was his first composition that was written years ago that reminds him everything from the past. He sighed when he heard the door creaked."It's been a long time since I last heard this song," Carmona commented then sat next to him. "How are you feeling now?" she asked.He opened his eyes and scowled at the woman. "I should be the one asking you that. Why are you even here?" Carmina shrugged and put her bag on the center table. "Mr. Park told me that the demo of my song is already in your hands. I want to listen to it," she said excitedly.He didn't respond but the crease on his forehead remained. Sandra probably told Mr. Park about the pink envelope that she gave him weeks ago, which he was scared of opening for days thinking it might be something bad news. Took him weeks to have the courage to see what's inside only to find out that its the lyrics of the song made for Carmina and Zion'
