Amber Pov After Phil and I got back together he transferred me from my work. He made me his personal assistant. I lived in his house again because that's what he wanted. Grandpa Fidel and Karen were happy because Phil and I finally got back together. I begged Phil that when we were at work our relationship would be boss-employee only so that I wouldn't be singled out. I'm afraid that everyone will look down on me because I don't fit in with him. At first, Phil was against it but eventually, he also agreed to what I wanted. As Phil's personal assistant, I do nothing but make him coffee, help his secretary organize documents when there is a meeting, and accompany him to the party events he goes to. It's like I'm just playing around and not working but he's paying me. Even though I'm not used to attending parties, I'm forcing myself to get used to it because Phil often attends events related to his business just like today. Phil attended a charity auction party and tag me along. In t
Amber PovI walked into the entrance's hotel to return to the party so Janina won't have a chance to seduce my husband when I suddenly stop walking. I feel that pair of eyes are staring at me. Actually, I felt that someone was staring at me the moment I stepped out of the hotel and walked to the garden. But I'm not the only one standing in the garden because some guests are also in there so no one may look at me unintentionally so I just ignore that feeling. But right now, I really feel that someone was staring at me only.I quickly turned around my eyes and scanned the people near me to see if one of them was looking at me. But I didn't see anyone who looked at me purposely. I shrugged my shoulders and took a deep sigh. Maybe I'm just being paranoid.I decided to continue to walk into the hotel but at the corner of my eyes, I suddenly saw a familiar figure looking at me. "Dad?" I quickly looked at him to see if he really was my dad. But the man suddenly turned his back on me.My hea
Amber PovJanina's face was all over the news because of her failed proposal to Phil. Many reports want to have an interview with Phil and me regarding the marriage proposal of the actress but Phil refused to speak to the public and also he didn't allow me to talk to any reporters. He said we are not celebrities so we don't need to explain to the public about the current issues that Janina was facing even if it involved them too.Phil asked me to stop being her assistant and stay in the house. She doesn't want me to feel awkward in the company because he knows that everyone in the company will know about us once they see us in the news.I followed what he wanted. I think staying in the house is not a bad thing. I will have more time to take care of Grandpa Fidel."What is this, Grandpa?" I asked Grandpa Fidel when he gave me a small box and told me to open it. I was busy helping Felix prepare our dinner when Grandpa asked me to go to his room. And when I entered his room I saw him si
Phil Pov I've been waiting for the person I'm meeting now but I've been waiting for him for almost an hour but he still hasn't shown up. I don't understand but I feel nervous. Maybe something bad happened to Ferrer that's why he's still not here. Ferrer is the detective I paid to investigate the accident nine years ago that killed my parents and Amber's father. I have a suspicion that it was a stage accident and not just a normal accident. Even if the police told me and Grandpa that what happened to my parents was purely an accident my instincts told me that it was not. And I need to investigate it to find out the truth. I've been investigating that accident for many but since I became the CEO of Grandpa's company I only had limited time to investigate so I hired a detective to do it. Ferrer is one of Alex's brother's friends and his brother referred him to me. A while ago, Ferrer called me and informed me that he discovered something new about the accident that I definitely di
Phil Pov "That's enough, Bro. You're already drunk. I'm going to take you home," Alex said when I was about to open another bottle of wine. I called him earlier and went to his house to have a drink. I want to drown myself in wine. I wanted to temporarily forget what I had discovered. "Don't stop me, Bro. This is the only way for me to temporarily forget about the problem I'm facing now." I continued opening the bottle of wine and poured it into my glass. I immediately drank the wine as if I was very thirsty. "Think about the people who are worried about you, Phil. Your grandfather and Amber. I'm sure they're both worried now because it's already dawn and you haven't come home yet, which you haven't done before. So stop drinking and I will take you to your house," Alex continued to convince me. A bitter smile crossed my lips when Alex mentioned Amber's name. "Amber," I said the name of the girl I love. Why is fate playing with us? When our relationship was going well, that was w
Amber Pov It was the day of my engagement party with Phil, so everyone at home was busy. Grandpa hired a team to decorate the large living room of the house. He wanted Phil and I to hold our engagement party at the hotel but the latter refused. Phil said it would be better if we just did it at home so that even if I was drunk, I could just go up to our room and rest immediately. After what happened when Phil came home drunk, he apologized to me and Grandpa. He said that he was just drunk and had a problem with the company, so I was the one who received his anger. Of course, Grandpa and I loved him so much so we immediately forgave him. Then he told us that he wanted us to have an engagement party so that he could officially introduce me to his business deals, business friends, and relatives who had not yet met me as his wife. He said we got married without having an engagement party so he wanted me to experience that kind of party. I wanted to help decorate the living room but Gr
Amber Pov "What nonsense is this, Phil? If you are joking, then this is not the right time for you to joke like that," Grandpa Fidel angrily glared at Phil. But I know Phil wasn't joking with his words. The only thing I don't understand is why is he doing this. Did he hate me this much to make me hurt and embarrassed to this extent? "I'm not joking, Grandpa. I'm serious about what I said. Janina will be your new granddaughter because she will be my wife soon. And Amber will just be my ex-wife because we are going to divorce right now," Phil answered his Grandfather with a serious face. He took out a folded paper from the pocket of his jacket that might be the divorce letter. It looks like Janina prepared this scene because she took out a ballpen so I could just sign immediately. "No way! It won't happen unless I'm dead. I will never accept that woman as your wife, Phil!" Grandp Fidel shouted angrily. He doesn't care anymore even if he is in front of many reporters."Just accept me
Phil Pov "I already warned you but you did it anyway. And now you're going to get drunk? Isn't this what you want, right? That's why you shouldn't get drunk. You should be happy because you succeeded in hurting the woman you love. And I'm sure, she will never forgive you this time," Alex said when I went to his house after what happened at Amber and I's supposed to be engagement party. "I don't get drunk because I'm sad. I get drunk because I'm happy," I denied my true feelings. "You can fool other people but not me, Phil," Alex said shaking his head. He poured wine into his glass and drank it straight. "I'm the one with the problem but why do you also want to get drunk?" "How can I not get drunk when Mildy broke up with me because of what you did," Alex answered, looking at me badly. "C'mon, Alex. Mildy is not the only woman in your life. You have a lot of reserved women in your palms so you just pull one from them," I answered him indifferently. I don't believe that he is rea
