Maxine and Sofia agreed to meet at a coffee shop near Sofia's condo. Maxine has been nagging Sofia about this for a while, but Sofia has consistently rejected her. This is because Sofia has a lot to do and does not trust Maxine. She knows that Maxine is Chelsea's sister. Sofia only agreed to meet Maxine today because Maxine insisted on meeting. Maxine had no choice but to meet with Sofia because no matter how hard she tried to avoid it, Sofia really pestered her.Maxine was quietly waiting for Sofia's arrival. She arrived early so that she could talk to Sofia. Soon, Sofia arrived and immediately recognized Maxine because of the way she looked at her. When Sofia approached her, she sat down in front of Maxine and the waiter approached them. "A cup of Blue Mountain with milk, please," Sofia said to the waiter.The waiter nodded and left to get Sofia's order. Sofia looked at Maxine, who was smiling from ear to ear even though they hadn't talked about anything yet. "Ms. Maxine Deine Garci
CHELSEAI'm here in Angel's car now. She’s driving me home to the mansion. We just finished shopping for the necessary art materials for designing Kent's outfits for his concert. We also just finished eating lunch at a restaurant. We had planned to eat at the mansion so that Angel could try Manang Fe's cooking, but we couldn't bear the hunger anymore."At least Red allows you to go out, beshy." Angel said while still looking at the road. "He doesn't need to control me. I don't have any plans to leave. Especially now that we're getting along better." I defend myself."Wow! Don't get your hopes up too high... You might just stay where you are, and he doesn't have any plans to level up your relationship. You should clarify what you are to each other before you hope for that person." Angel added.I immediately thought about what she said. I mean, Red hasn't clarified to me what we are yet. But he said "I love you" to me. Does that mean he loves me? He wouldn't say that if it didn't mean
CHELSEAIt's been two days since Redemon left the mansion for his supposed business trip. I don't know if I just miss him or if I'm not used to not seeing or being with him because, ever since he left, I've lost my appetite. I have to be forced to be taken to my room by Manang Fe just to eat. I also often stay up late because no matter how hard I try to sleep, my mind seems to be too busy and I have a lot on my mind, so in the end I end up staring at the ceiling while lying on my bed all night. My days aren't very productive anymore... It's a good thing my best friend, Angel, comes to my rescue. He always visits me here at the mansion and helps me with the designs I'm working on.RingingI was interrupted by what I was doing when my phone suddenly rang. I looked for it and when I picked it up, Redemon's name appeared. I thought he was busy on his business trip. Busy but he still has time to request a video call from me? He must miss me. I lay down and fixed myself up before answering.
CHELSEAAs soon as I heard someone calling, I immediately opened the door of the person who had been knocking on my door for a while. As expected, it was Manang Fe, who had brought a tray of breakfast. I immediately helped her with her luggage and placed it on the table. "I'm sorry for disturbing you Manang and for waking you up... I told Red that it wasn't necessary because I was going to come down soon, but I woke up early..." I said to Manang, feeling embarrassed. She smiled at me, "What are you saying, hija? This is my job. If it weren't for Sir's orders, what would we do here in the mansion? So it's okay. Go ahead and eat, your food might get cold. If you want me to prepare something else for you, just call me." I nodded and Manang Fe left my room. I sat down and began to eat breakfast. While eating, I suddenly remembered Angel. I hadn't asked him yet if he planned to come to the mansion today. I grabbed my phone and texted him. If he didn't have any clients this morning, he w
"We're here!" Maxine shouted when they arrived at Sofia's private island. The staff busily unloaded the things they brought. They helped each other get off the yacht. A few of Sofia's staff members greeted them. They brought leis or flowers that they made into necklaces as a token of welcome. After they wore them, they were immediately invited to tour Sofia's villa. It was small, but it was clear that the materials used to build this kind of villa were very expensive. "Sof, how long has this villa been yours?" Maxine suddenly asked, amazed at what she saw. "It's still new, it's been almost two years. My dad had it built as a birthday gift for me," Sofia replied. Maxine was stunned by what she heard, "So that means this private island belongs to you? Wow, you're really rich! Ask your parents if they want to adopt another child! I'm willing!" Maxine jokingly said. Sofia laughed at what she said. "Yup, that's why we even named the island after me. Sofis Paradise, that's the name we ga
"Do you think Auntie was able to do it?" Sofia asked Maxine anxiously. They were now in Sofia's room to get the sunscreen, but there was another reason why they went there. Sofia has been pacing around the corners of the room for several minutes. "Can you relax? Geez! You know, you can just sit there and calm down. Nothing will happen if you keep walking around like that. You're making me dizzy." Maxine said this to Sofia irritably. Sofia was unable to do anything but sit down and wait for the next step in their plans. Meanwhile, while the two were restless in their room, Madame Buenavista was calm. She opened her eyes and watched the peaceful sleep of Chelsea. ------------Flashback----------While the three were busy taking pictures, Madame Buenavista immediately went to the kitchen of the villa. A few employees greeted her there. "Have you prepared what I ordered?" she asked the employees. The employees nodded and brought out two bottles of wine and a suspected sleeping aid. Ma
CHELSEAI woke up with a headache. It felt like I was being hit with hollow blocks because of the pain. I didn't open my eyes right away and slowly massaged my temples. I probably did this for more than five minutes before I decided to open my eyes. As I opened my eyes, the ceiling was the first thing that appeared to me. I slowly stood up and gasped when my head suddenly throbbed and my vision started to spin. I quickly closed my eyes and let my head adjust. If I force myself to open my eyes and move from my sitting position, I'll definitely fall. When I noticed that I was feeling a little better and that the nausea seemed to be gone, I slowly opened my eyes. I looked around the room to see where I was now. I'm still in the villa. What happened to me? I immediately remembered what happened before I lost consciousness and fell asleep. All I remember is that I accompanied Red's mother to drink and even chatted with her... After that, I felt like I was really drunk from what I drank
"Any update?" Red asked his secretary as they got off the chartered plane. "I am sending people to investigate your mother and Ms. Sofia, sir... We are also trying to find out which island they went to. Once we know where they are, we will send people to check the place, sir..." Ms. Dein said to her boss. "How long will it take? They can't just hide! What if my wife is in danger? Did you already call the police? I don't care if they bring my mother to the police station to be investigated. They should do everything they can to find my wife. I'm willing to pay any amount." Red said while his eyes were filled with anger. Three hours have passed since they received the call from Manang Fe saying that Chelsea has not returned home. As time passes, Red's worry increases. He can't calm down and can't focus because of everything he's thinking about. All he can do now is pray nonstop for Chelsea's safety. Meanwhile, the three of them had a small celebration. They are now in the living roo
