Chapter: Chapter 12: Punch
"Ugh! Let go of me! Let go of me!" I said repeatedly as I tried to remove Stefano's grip from my right wrist while he was busy talking to a police officer but I was unsuccessful.I was about to try again when he suddenly pulled me towards him and made me lean against his chest. He immediately wrapped his arms around my stomach to trap me and prevent me from escaping from him.When I looked up, my cheeks immediately turned red when I saw how many people were in front of us right now. Aside from the police, there were tourists watching what was happening, and what made me feel even more ashamed was when I saw the people I had lied to earlier about not being married and being single watching too.When my gaze met theirs, I immediately looked away. I felt the corners of my eyes getting wet. They must be thinking I'm a liar now and because of that, I suddenly lost strength to struggle and my head just dropped.I don't intend to lie...Stefano sensed it quickly because our bodies were just

Chapter: Chapter 11: Angry
Today marks the fourth day that he hasn't returned to our suite. It seems like he's been staying in a different suite for the past few days, especially since he even asked a staff member to pick up his suitcase just three days ago.Instead of thinking about him, I just chose to focus my full attention on reviewing but unlike the first time I hung out in front of our suite where there was peace and calmness, it seemed to disappear as the days went by and I didn't know the reason why.Whenever I lose focus on studying, I go swimming in the pool right in our suite, but right now, I have chosen to do something different.I just finished eating snacks and when I tried to go back to studying, I couldn't focus anymore that's why I decided right now to just go to various shops here on the Island to buy something for Maryland and Maritess.When I passed by a shop selling various keychain designs, I went inside. The people inside greeted me happily and I smiled back at them.It didn't take long

Chapter: Chapter 10: Womanizer
Stefano was behind me, that's why I couldn't see his reaction, and I didn't intend to find out anymore because it might just make things even more awkward between us. I just continued walking and looking around, pretending not to see what's hanging on the wall."Do you want to continue resting or do you want to eat now?" He asked as he sat down on the sofa in front of the bed that I was sitting on. "I'm still full and not sleepy because I slept a long time earlier on the plane," I explained. "How about you? You look sleepy. You should get some rest first," I added because as I look at him right now, he looks like he's sleep deprived. I don't know why he didn't sleep earlier while we were on the trip, especially since there were many beds there for him to sleep on. He paused for a few seconds first while not taking his eyes off me before he spoke. "Are you sure?" "Yeah, I'm sure. ""What will you do while I am sleeping?"Why does he ask so many questions? Should I tell him about it

Chapter: Chapter 9: Honeymoon
We were just staring at each other while I cried silently. Having cried for most of my life for my family, I have already mastered the art of crying silently and without making any sound. I can see in Stefano's eyes right now that he wants to ask me more, but something is stopping him, and I know it's about what's written in the contract. It's better if he really doesn't ask about my personal life anymore because I don't intend to answer him no matter what.And because I wasn't used to someone else seeing me cry, I tried to pull my hands away from Stefano so I could wipe my tears, but he wouldn't let me. I tried again but he really didn't want to.I was surprised when he raised his right hand so that he could do it for me. He gently wiped my cheek while his other hand tightly clasped my hands, still not letting them go. I don't know, but I feel like his caresses are slowly calming me down. I also feel like I'm gradually getting sleepy. It's like I'm hypnotized by what he's doing to m

Chapter: Chapter 7: Married
Before they could speak again, I opened my eyes and slowly got up and sat up on the bed. They both turned to me at the same time and then rolled their eyes at me."Finally! The Disney princess wannabe is finally awake!" One of them said and crossed her arms against her chest.I didn't speak. I just looked at them. They were also looking at me but with disgust on their faces. I just saw them today so I'm not familiar with their faces. I don't know how to approach them, especially since it's so obvious that they don't like me.They were both wearing formal attire and I think the one who spoke was a fashion designer based on the white elegant dress worn on the mannequin next to her. The other person with her looked like a makeup artist based on the things that she was carrying."You seem to be able to take care of yourself, that's why we think you can also dress and apply makeup on your own without our help." Said by the makeup artist.What does she mean?"We are leaving now! We have a m
