THE gentle brush of the cold breeze of air against her skin awakened her from her deep sleep. Lyzza was drained and exhausted. She had no idea when Gideon stopped doing her last night, right after they left their wedding reception.Needless to say, she and Gideon got some of their intimate moments back. She had no idea why his touch made her feel different in so many ways. It was like all of the memories between the two of them from four years ago came rushing back, lingering in every corner of her mind and making her feel hot around him.She opened her eyes and looked for the blanket. It was right below her lower body, so she moved a bit to reach it. She was about to pull the blanket up to cover her nakedness when she noticed that her husband’s space was empty.A figure was standing in front of the glass wall, where the whole city could be seen. Gideon silently stared at the skyscrapers with a serious expression on his face. The glistening city lights peeped through the glass wall an

SHE couldn’t help but close her eyes and use her hands to cover them when the cameras started flashing the minute she got out of the limousine in which she rode on her way to the venue where the airline’s anniversary party would be held.The reporters bombarded her with question after question, to the point that she almost lost her balance because of all these people flocking her way. It was fortunate that she was the first to exit the car, leaving Summer to stare at her from the inside.“There have been some claims stating that you are the woman who married the CEO of Vesarius Airlines. Is that true?”She used her arms to cover her eyes more and to hide her face. The cameras flashed even more, so she decided to use her body to hide the view inside the open limousine door. They might see Summer waiting inside, and she could never risk her baby getting hurt from this incident.Men with huge bodies came into the picture to rescue them from the reporters. They protected Lyzza and Summer

“BUT not anymore because she seduced the CEO. Can you imagine that? She’s a gold digger! I can’t believe she was able to secure her position not only in the airline industry but also in the Vesarius family. Worse, she asked Sir Gideon to be the father of her child. She’s really ambitious!”“However, Gideon claimed to be the child’s father.”“And you believe it?”“Well, they really look the same.”“My goodness, Maureen. Stop asking questions. And so what? Let’s just say that maybe the kid was his, but that doesn’t mean that Gideon won’t leave them someday, especially now that Gideon’s old wife is here. For all I know, he’s only using Lyzza as a rebound wife.”She waited for a few more minutes before she heard the ladies walk outside the restroom. She slowly opened the cubicle door and saw the backs of the three women who had just left. They were all junior flight attendants for Vesarius Airlines.Grabbing her purse, she went out of the cubicle and stood in the huge lavatory, getting he

AFTER her final flight landed in the afternoon, Lorelie, the female security guard, hailed a cab for her. Another security guard was there and currently on shift with Lorelie, so she was able to leave the main gate for a few minutes in order to guide her on her way out and wait for the cab.“Do you have a child?” Lyzza asked while they waited for an unoccupied cab.“Yes. I do, Ma’am. I have three. Two of them are just a few years older than you and have already finished their studies. My youngest, however, studies engineering at De La Salle University,” the female security guard responded with pride in her voice, and she scratched her head. “That’s why I am so thankful to the Vesarius family.”She turned her gaze to face the woman.“My children are their scholars. De La Salle’s fees are extremely high, especially when it comes to engineering courses. It’s a good thing that I got a job here. All their employees’ children are scholars of the Vesarius family, especially ours who did the

“WHERE’S Summer?” she asked when Gideon opened the door widely.She went inside and spun around to face him. The living room was utterly dark. If not for the lamp from the outside, she wouldn’t actually see the expression on his face.“She is at my Mom’s. Rolle took her earlier.”She took a long, deep breath. “You should’ve told me firsthand so I wouldn’t worry. I’m going to pick her up, or I’d rather spend the night there in case Summer doesn’t want to go home yet.”Her eyes feasted on the darkness of the penthouse. It definitely looked lifeless.“Spend the night here,” he said in a deep, low voice.“I should be with Summer.”“You should be with me too.”Her forehead creased at his sudden statement. “What?”“We’re married, right? You should be with me too. And you should be…” He took a deep breath and shook his head, walking past her.“And I should be what?” she curiously asked as she followed him all the way to the kitchen.“Have you eaten already?”“Not yet,” she answered as her ha
