Chapter XXV
I'm not going to lie, you look cute. Those words kept on running through Ellisa's head. She's already in her room and she has work later but she could not damn sleep. Why the hell would Levius say that to her?After he said that, things got awkward. He decided to just take her home sensing that things could not get better at that moment for both of them.As she gets inside their gate Levius spoke, "I'll earn that trust again. You'll forgive me."Ellisa didn't say anything but gave a soft gaze at him before turning around to walk inside her house. Once she was inside she rushed to the window and saw him wave, a smirk on his face. She had to close the curtain in a rush, resisting a smile.And now here she was tossing and turning on her bed but she still couldn't sleep. She may have hours and hours of sleep but still, she would need energy for later because surely her teammates and their manager would expect a make-up for her absence."What is happening to me!" she fumed, squeezing her p

Chapter XXVI
Levius just got off of work and now he was in another pain-in-the-ass situation. He thought Ellisa and him were going on a date but no-- this wasn't the 'asking out' that he had in his mind. They're literally parked in front of someone else's house, sunglasses on their faces as if his car wasn't tinted enough for someone from the outside to see them.From what Ellisa informed him, they were in front of miss Rossie's fiancee's house, waiting for according to her "jerk" to come out. Since she was off and he needed to get his time off for her, she decided to stalk and make him her acquaintance."Are you even certain that he is really inside his house? What if he was in his condo or something? Maybe work?"They've been there for three hours now and he doesn't see any man that could potentially be the young master's rival. All he saw was some old car going out and the maid coming in and out of the house. There was also this woman who could be the madam of the house with her huge sunglasses

Early in the morning and Veronica finds herself surrounded by annoying invisible hearts in the air. She looks to her right and sees Rossie and her brother being all lovey-dovey after that misunderstanding they had. Looks like Jared had reversed the situation and now her sister-in-law has forgotten that they needed to know what Jared was hiding from them."Just a reminder that Lily and her people are coming over." She gave them a bored look and added, "You two are disgusting.""I agree," Keille uttered.Rossie, on the other hand, is just so happy that she and Jared were fine now. She was thinking of making Lily jealous but then Jared's presence was requested by his grandparent so he needed to excuse himself. Now, it was just the ladies in the sitting room."How did he clarify the issue?" Veronica asked as soon as she sees the room is finally clear of her brother.

Chapter XXVIII
At last, the day of the party came. It was like she was taken back to one of the Vermond parties but this was more luxurious, with more people, some were even celebrities. This is the biggest party she has been to. Everyone was looking so friendly, smiling, and everywhere she goes, it was as if she was also a damn celebrity. Of course, she knows why they were treating her nicely. Who would dare insult the wife of the Corporal's heir? Nobody seemed to have the gut to freakin' do that in her face, especially in this grand mansion they're at.Jared suddenly leaned into her. "Are you okay?" he asked and she nodded. "Tell me when you get tired of smiling at them."What he said only made her laugh. She was enjoying herself at this party. Even if she has to keep smiling at strangers, she felt secure with her husband's hand all around her. It reminds her of the times when Jake leaves her alone in a corner. Look at her now, enjoying a party. She hopes nothing happens.A few hours after the p

Chapter XXVIII.ii
"I'm going home?" Rossie asked, her brows drawn together. "What about you? Are you not coming with me?" "Wasn't it the deal?" Jared asked back. The life on her face immediately slipped away and he knew he couldn't take back what he had said; he wasn't going to. "That was the deal right? You'll never see me again and I would agree on the divorce." She was quick to withdraw her arms from wrapping around him, her eyes glossy from the tears that were forming in the corners of her eyes. Looking away, she wiped her own tears from falling but they wouldn't stop so she looks up at him, her makeup somehow ruined."All of that was part of the deal? And this! Bringing me here was part of it too?" Her voice was getting louder yet breaking. "Is it so when you tell me nobody from your family could hear? That at the party, tell me, was it a show so they could say you're actually doing alright?" Heartlessly, Jared looked her in the eyes, his out of color. "I was giving you this night but I guess

Chapter XXX
Keille was on two sides. Veronica made her go and see Rossie, using this as an escape to see other things and the other was Jared, asking her to see if Rossie was doing alright. Originally, she plans just to visit the city without ever Rossie crossing into her mind. Then Veronica knew and she asked if she could visit her sister-in-law. When she landed, Levius somehow blocked her from seeing Rossie, not until she agreed to keep it a secret that Jared was not with Rossie. Now here she was, alone in a suite just watching the tiny people cross the road through the full-length glass window. If Rossie agrees, she can see how normal people do their days in a tiny house. It does make her a little excited but she'd still prefer to be alone.For the first time earlier she has finally seen Primrose in person. She was sweet and a little shorter than she had expected. She loves to smile, completely the other way for her. In the middle of her busy thought, she heard a doorbell and she went by th

Chapter XXXI
Sunday morning when the rain poured heavily. Rossie just got out of the glass door. Ellisa was on a day off and she forgot to bring herself an umbrella. At the edge of the shade, she reached out her left hand, catching some droplets in her palm and she felt the cold."That's a nice ring you got around your fingers," someone said that making her instantly turn around. Her brows were drawn together when she saw Jake. "What the hell are you doing here?" she asked. From the moment she threw the engagement ring at Jake she kind of feels annoyed whenever she sees him. "You get off at this hour and I figured I should see if someone was here to pick you up. Guess Ellisa is on a day off.""I don't need a ride," she blurted. "You can damn go home now.""Can't you really forgive me?" His brown eyes were looking so sincere. If she was the same as before she'd fall for it but it was the same person's eyes that fooled her for years. "I said you can go home now, Jake.""There was someone else, hu

Advised to stay rested for at least six months, Jared couldn't wait any longer. After getting in that operating room and staying there for who knows how long, he did his greatest war to win his life. And when he woke up, he could finally breathe again, pain all over him. Levius was the only one to congratulate him, telling him everything was better now. It won't be better until he gets back Rossie, that's the only thing that matters to him the moment he wakes up. It was a coincidence that when he came to see her, her ex was there. He was trying to stop himself from hurting anyone but he just couldn't. No one can insult his woman, not even he can do that without feeling remorse.When he thought it was that easy to get her, she surprised her with a hard slap. Now, he can't help but smile at it.

It was still dark outside when Ellisa and Rossie got off from work. How ironic that it's summer yet they are having rainy mornings."Our weather is crazy," Ellisa remarked.Unfortunately, the parking space in front of their company was for their bosses. Yep, it's how that's always been even though it was said that it's for everyone, most of the employees don't use the front parking space.So, they made their way to the parking lot, the one in the basement. They were just walking to where they parked when they saw Jared waiting. Like how he was back then, he had a coffee in his hand. There's only one though which was strange.He walk to them and handed Rossie the coffee. She took it and then Jared turned to Ellisa, their eyes somehow communicating and she frowns. Was there something she missed?"They ran out. The next one is about thirty minutes so I had one," he told Ellisa. "Mind if I take her home?""It's no big deal." Ellisa shrugged and looks at Rossie. "You can go and ride with h
