Craig's POV"Sir! Where are you going, you can't leave, your car will be here." The bar manager chased me as I walked faster toward my car.What issue did Lia get involved in once again?Just think of her crying alone without no one to lean on, I couldn't help but to curse numerous times. She doesn't deserve that, I believe in her even though we haven't known each other that long.“Sir!” He quickly stopped my hand to open the car door, "Please, you really can't leave.""What I'm going to now is more important, she needs me." I looked at him seriously, "you understand me, right?"He pulled back, "B-but sir...""No buts, I need to go," I said and removed his hand, I opened the door completely and quickly went in there. I immediately drove to Darius's company, I wanted to see her as soon as possible.~As soon as the car stopped, I saw her immediately walking out of the company, it was obvious from the way she walked that she had no energy because of what was happening.Somehow, I felt m

"Left, raise it to the left, it’s uneven!" I shouted while Craig climbed up the iron stairs and attached the happy fiesta poster and others that needed to be hung, we were already awake at four o'clock to do all the preparation yet there was still so much needed to be done."This, is it alright now?" He asked after lifting the left side, he was already a little sweaty from the amount of work he had done since early. Adding that other neighbors are also asking for help, though the enjoyment on his face is quite obvious.I gasped and shook my head, "it's too much now, Craig. I'm getting dizzy looking up, you're here and I'm up there. Let's just change position, I’m so tired of telling you it’s not even.""Huh?! It's not possible, what if you fall?" He bent down worriedly and looked at me.“Just this because I want to try, Craig. If I fall, I'll only have a few scratches and small fractures so it’s fine, come on let me try it, and let's change." I said I was too bored just watching him l

I hastily got up reason for Craig to do the same, I wasn't naked but I voluntarily wrapped the blanket around my body while looking at him."Darius, what are you doing here?" Craig's voice was normal as if he wasn't even shocked that his cousin was standing in front of us, looking at us like we did something unacceptable.It’s contrary to my reaction of being very surprised by his sudden appearance, I couldn't look at him even though I could feel his intense gaze on me. I feel like I was caught doing something I should not have, though I did not do something wrong."I can go here whenever I want, I don't have to give a reason or explain it to you. Get up and come out, we need to talk." He said seriously and turned around, leaving without looking back at us.There is no reason for me to feel guilty but, I can feel it. I want to make it clear that what he just saw is nothing, if he thinks anything happened between me and Craig, I want to tell him that he is wrong…Craig sighed as if he

Darius's POVI suddenly felt a great threat from his words, it was like I was standing at the edge of a cliff that one wrong move would make me fall and I would be unable to do anything. This is the first time I've ever seen him so serious.This was also the first time we fought over something we both liked, "do you think I will give you a chance to take her away like this again?" I am also serious about going back to him."Well, I’m not sure. However, I will be waiting since you can’t keep protecting her." He said casually and continue to eat like nothing happened.Lia keeps her silent on the side, and it makes me feel so guilty. Damn!I never thought that I would argue with my cousin right in front of the woman we were both interested in, but I won't back down. Like Craig, I can't let Lia go to someone else, even if it's Craig.~It was late when we arrived in Manila, so I took Lia first so she wouldn't have to deal with the awkwardness inside the car. I'm fully aware that when she

"Are you sure about it?" Darius asks again as if he couldn't take what he heard from the man, even I couldn't believe it. Why would his mom do that, what if there was no way to fix what happened? Is it really okay for her to do that when Darius is her son after all?"Well, Rayver said it with his mouth. He also had a CCTV that was shown and a conversation with your mother, even I was surprised because I didn't think your mother could talk to the son of her ex-husband's new partner."“Damn it!” Darius shouted as he slammed his palm on the table, he was furious, "Why she can't stay out of my business, she always crosses the line. What she wants now, I’m good without her.""Talk to her, that's all you can do. After all, she’s not nobody." The man looked at me again, "And find out why she did that, or maybe you already have an idea why she has done something.”"There is no point asking her, she wants to replace my secretary and she failed to do that. She will stop now since she did someth
