Entangled With Three Billionaires
Sa loob ng dalawampung taon, namuhay si Lia bilang perpektong anak ng mga Montellano—hanggang sa bumalik ang tunay na anak ng pamilya. Bigla na lang siyang nawalan ng halaga sa kanila, pinalayas, at iniwan pa ng fiance niya. Wala siyang nagawa kundi lumipat sa isang maliit na apartment, bitbit ang pangarap na mamuhay nang tahimik at malaya.
Ngunit ang kalayaang gustong makuha ni Lia ay naging magulo nang sabay-sabay na dumating ang tatlong makapangyarihang lalaki. Si Caleb, ang striktong CEO; si Jax, ang rebelding underground racer; at si Julian, ang tahimik pero possessive niyang professor. Lahat sila ay may kanya-kanyang obsesyon sa kaniya at handang mag-away-away makuha lang siya ulit.
Habang pilit na tinatakasan ni Lia ang gulo na dala nila, isang malaking sikreto ang mabubunyag—siya pala ang matagal nang nawawalang anak at totoong tagapagmana ng pinakamayamang pamilya sa bansa. Sa pagbawi niya sa posisyong para talaga sa kaniya, hahayaan ba niyang makontrol ulit siya ng pag-ibig ng isa sa kanila, o siya na mismo ang magpapatakbo sa sarili niyang buhay?

Chapter: CHAPTER 26LIA POVInilapag ko ang huling piraso ng sewing pins sa maliit kong magnetic tray. Sa wakas, tapos na. Isang linggong walang tulugan, puro kape, at sumasakit na likod—pero worth it ang lahat nang makita ko ang gown na nakasabit sa may pinto ng closet ko. Malinis ang bagsak ng champagne gold satin sa ilalim ng ilaw ng kwarto ko.Sana lang talaga maging kasing linis nito ang mangyayari bukas.Noong isang araw, pagkatapos ng mabilis at medyo awkward na pagbisita ni Julian para ibigay ang syllabus ko, hindi ko mapigilang mapaisip. Mukhang seryoso nga ang sinabi niya tungkol kay Caleb. At nang tumawag si Caleb sa akin noong gabi ring iyon, napatunayan ko lang kung gaano siya kadesididong makuha ulit ang kontrol. Natatakot silang maging mitsa ako ng pagbagsak ng imahe ng mga Montellano, pero hindi nila alam na matagal na akong tapos sa pagiging sunud-sunuran.Mas lalo na kay Troy. Naalala ko ang mukha niya noong harangin niya ako sa labas ng convenience s

Chapter: CHAPTER 25JULIAN POVIniligpit ko ang huling bundle ng exam sheets sa loob ng briefcase ko habang nakikinig sa mahinang bulungan ng mga natitirang estudyante sa hallway. Halos alas-otso na ng gabi. Ang buong unibersidad ay unt-unti nang binabalot ng dilim, pero ang utak ko, parang kanina pang tanghali naka-overdrive.Sumandal ako sa gilid ng desk ko at tinanggal ang salamin ko para masapo ang aking noo.Hindi ko alam kung dapat ba akong kabahan o humanga na lang sa katapangan ni Lia.Noong gabi pagkatapos ng eksena sa opisina ng Dean, hindi ko mapigilang mapangiti habang nagmamaneho pauwi. Nakita ko kung paano manginig ang panga ni Tita Helen at kung paano tuluyang mawalan ng salita si Chloe nang ilapag ni Lia ang dokumento mula sa Cruz Legacy Trust. Akala ng mga Montellano, dinala lang nila si Lia sa rurok ng tagumpay para ihulog kapag nalaman nilang hindi nila ito kadugo. Hindi nila alam, ang babaeng itinapon nila ay hawak na ngayon ang mismong upuan na nagpapasy

Chapter: CHAPTER 24LIA POVIsang linggo na lang bago ang gala.Nakatitig ako sa gown na nakasabit sa tapat ng pinto ng closet ko habang umiinom ng kape. Ang ganda ng bagsak ng tela sa ilalim ng sinag ng araw na tumatagos sa bintana ng apartment ko. Malinis ang tahi, lapat na lapat ang bawat tupi, at perpekto ang pagkakalagay ng invisible zipper na pinagpuyatan ko nitong mga nakaraang gabi. Handang-handa na ang gown ko. Pero ang tanong, handa na ba ako sa magiging gulo kapag pumasok ako sa ballroom na suot ito?Siyempre naman, Lia. Wala ka nang dapat katakutan. Matagal mo nang gustong kumawala sa anino nila, 'di ba?Ibinaba ko ang baso ng kape sa lamesa at binuksan ang laptop ko para i-check ang email ko. Bukod sa mga transaksyon ng aking online shop, may isang email mula sa admin ng unibersidad na naglalaman ng pormal na imbitasyon para sa Shareholders’ Gala. Naka-attach doon ang digital pass na may logo ng Cruz Legacy Trust at ang upuan na nakalaan para sa akin.

Chapter: CHAPTER 23JAX POVPinunasan ko ang dumi at grasa sa braso ko gamit ang basahan habang pababa ng hagdanan ng apartment building ni Lia. Hindi ko pa rin maiwasang mapangiti habang naalala ko kung paano niya niluto 'yung mami at siopao na dinala ko sa kanya kanina. Pero kasabay ng ngiti na 'on, may kung anong bigat sa dibdib ko na hindi ko maalis-alis.Gown para sa gala ng mga Montellano? Seryoso ba talaga siya sa plano niyang 'yan?Noong gabing tawagan niya ako para sa panggugulo ni Troy, handa na akong sumugod kahit saan para lang basagin ang mukha ng lalaking 'on. At noong makita ko si Caleb at si Julian sa unibersidad na umaali-aligid sa kanya, mas lalo lang akong nairita. Si Caleb, akala mo kung sinong santo na magliligtas kay Lia samantalang ang pamilya naman niya ang dahilan kung bakit ito nagdurusa sa maliit na apartment ngayon. At ang sarili kong kapatid na si Julian—lagi na lang gumagamit ng mga pormal na dahilan, keso thesis o academic requirements, para lang mapa

Chapter: CHAPTER 22LIA POVMaingat kong isinuot ang champagne gold column gown na halos isang linggo kong pinagpuyatan. Dahan-dahan kong hinila ang invisible zipper sa tagiliran, at nang marinig ko ang swabe at tuyong tunog ng pagsara nito, nakahinga ako nang maluwag.Tumingin ako sa salamin.Ang bagsak ng satin ay sumunod sa bawat kurba ng katawan ko nang walang labis at walang kulang. Ang draping sa may balikat ay malinis, at ang neckline ay may sapat na lalim para magmukhang elegante pero hindi bastos. Sa ilalim ng bumbilya ng maliit kong kwarto, tila may sariling liwanag ang tela. Ito ang unang pagkakataon na nakakita ako ng sarili kong gawa na suot ko mismo.Hindi masama, Lia. Hindi masama para sa isang pinalayas.Noong nakatira pa ako sa mansyon, bawat gown na isinusuot ko sa mga charity gala o corporate events ay pinipili ni Tita Helen. Laging kulay pastel, laging Conservative ang tabas, at laging may mabulaklak na detalye na tila ba sinasabi sa mundong

Chapter: CHAPTER 21CALEB POVNiluwagan ko ang knot ng suot kong necktie habang nakatitig sa kawalan mula sa malaking salaming bintana ng opisina ko sa Montellano Holdings. Mula rito sa tuktok ng building, kitang-kita ko ang buong skyline ng BGC. Ang dambuhalang syudad na binuo ng pamilya namin, ang imperyo na kahit kailan ay hindi ko hinayaang may makayanig.Pero nitong mga nakaraang araw, pakiramdam ko ay may mga bagay na unt-unting nawawala sa kontrol ko. At ang pinakamasakit doon—si Lia 'yon.Anong nangyayari sa'yo, Lia? At bakit parang mas malayo ka na ngayon sa akin kaysa noong nasa ilalim ka pa ng bubong ko?Simula noong gabing pinalayas siya nina Papa at Tita Helen, hindi ako nakatulog nang maayos. Galit ako kay Papa dahil sa mabilisang desisyon niyang itapon si Lia nang malamang si Chloe ang totoong anak. Galit ako kay Tita Helen dahil sa kawalan niya ng konsensya sa batang pinalaki niya ng mahigit dalawang dekada. Pero mas galit ako sa sarili ko.Noong

THE PRICE OF LOVING YOU
Five years ago, Genevieve Winslow vanished without a word, shattering Leander Montclair's heart and leaving behind nothing but unanswered questions.
Now, Leander is no longer the man she left behind. A world-renowned cardiothoracic surgeon and the newly appointed CEO of Montclair Medical Group, he has built an empire with one rule—never let anyone get close enough to break him again.
But fate has other plans.
When Genevieve's consulting firm wins the multimillion-dollar contract to restructure Montclair Medical Group through a blind bidding process, she's forced to work side by side with the only man she's never stopped loving.
Every meeting becomes a battle of pride, resentment, and undeniable attraction. While Genevieve fights to keep their relationship strictly professional, she hides the heartbreaking secret that forced her to leave five years ago—a sacrifice she made to protect Leander at the cost of her own happiness.
Leander, however, refuses to let history repeat itself. This time, he won't settle for silence. He'll uncover the truth behind her disappearance, no matter how many walls she builds between them.
As old wounds reopen and long-buried feelings refuse to fade, one question remains:
Can love survive five years of lies and sacrifice... or will the truth destroy their last chance at forever?

Chapter: CHAPTER 5Genevieve's POVBy 9:00 PM, the entire executive suite of Montclair Medical was eerily quiet.The custodial staff had already finished their rounds, leaving the dimly lit hallway outside Leander’s corner office bathed in a soft, low amber glow. Rain tapped relentlessly against the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, mirroring the chaotic storm brewing inside my mind.My laptop screen flickered with rows of financial spreadsheets, but I hadn't typed a single digit in twenty minutes. Every time I looked at the dark wood door connecting my workspace to Leander’s suite, my pulse spiked.I needed to finalize the emergency budget plan for tomorrow’s 8:00 AM board meeting. After that, I could go home, collapse onto my bed, and put distance between us once again.Gathering the printed financial reports, I stood up, smoothed down my skirt, and took a slow, steadying breath.Just drop off the documents, sign off on the line, and leave.I walked across the carpet, knocked twice, and pushed the heavy

Chapter: CHAPTER 4Genevieve's POVBy Thursday afternoon, my temporary desk in the corner office was piled high with surgical department schedules, inventory spreadsheets, and shift logs.Working on the same floor as Leander was a constant exercise in self-control. Every time he passed by the floor-to-ceiling glass partition, his presence drew every eye in the room—including mine, no matter how hard I tried to focus on my laptop screen.At 3:15 PM, my tablet chimed with an urgent alert.I glanced up just as the double doors of the executive suite swung open. Two senior nurses and the chief resident were moving quickly beside Leander, who was already stripping off his suit jacket and handing it to his assistant."Massive aortic dissection in Operating Room Four," the chief resident said hurriedly, trying to keep pace with Leander's long strides. "BP is dropping fast. Dr. Vance said it’s too complex for the attending team on shift."Leander’s posture changed instantly. The calm, aloof corporate executive

Chapter: CHAPTER 3Genevieve's POVThe glass doors of the Montclair Medical Group headquarters slid open, welcoming me with a blast of chilly air-conditioned air.It was 7:45 AM on Monday morning. I straightened my blazer, adjusted the leather strap of my briefcase, and took a slow, steadying breath.I was here strictly as the Senior Healthcare Operations Consultant. Nothing more, nothing less. Over the weekend, I had thoroughly reviewed our team’s audit strategy, forcing myself to look at Montclair Medical purely as a complex system of numbers, operational workflows, and budget allocations.I rode the private executive elevator up to the top floor. My associate, Sarah, was already waiting outside the main boardroom with a tablet in hand."Morning, Gen!" Sarah greeted me, handing over a hot cup of black coffee. "The department heads are all inside. Dr. Montclair’s executive assistant just informed me that he’ll be joining us shortly.""Thanks, Sarah," I said, taking a quick sip of the coffee. "Are all t

Chapter: CHAPTER 2Genevieve's POVThe grand ballroom of the St. Regis was filled with soft classical violin music, sparkling crystal chandeliers, and the muffled chatter of high-society medical professionals.It was the annual Metropolitan Healthcare Gala, the official curtain-raiser event right before major hospital contracts kicked off. As the lead consultant for Apex Solutions, I had no choice but to attend.I stood near the edge of the room, holding a glass of untouched sparkling water. I chose a simple, tailored navy floor-length dress—professional, understated, and completely unremarkable. I wanted to blend into the velvet curtains if possible.I kept my eyes scanning the crowd, taking slow, deliberate breaths. The formal turnover meeting at Montclair Medical wasn't scheduled until Monday morning, but in elite circles like this, attendance was practically mandatory."Genevieve, right?"I turned around to see Dr. Harrison, a senior member of the Montclair advisory board, walking toward me with a w

Chapter: CHAPTER 1Genevieve's POVThe pops of champagne bottles echoing around the glass-walled conference room usually meant one thing: victory.For the past three months, my team at Apex Healthcare Solutions had practically lived on caffeine and four hours of sleep. We pulled out every strategic frame, every operational workflow, and every financial model we could assemble to pitch for the biggest contract of the year—the complete system restructuring of Montclair Medical Group.When our firm won the blind bidding process as the top-ranked candidate, the office erupted."To Genevieve!" Marcus, our managing partner, raised his crystal flute toward me, his smile wide and triumphant. "The youngest Senior Healthcare Operations Consultant to secure a multi-million dollar hospital overhaul. You out-performed every veteran firm in the region."Soft clinking sounds filled the room. My colleagues smiled, patting my shoulder, offering warm congratulations. I smiled back, taking a small sip of the sparkling win
