Eloisa came home with her crumpled face. She roamed her eyes inside the mansion to look for her husband but she found nothing. She quickly grabs her phone from her handbag and called him.
"Hon, I thought you're not going to the office today and I will take charge in the meantime? But where are you? I just got home!", she said with a pissed on her face.
While talking to her husband, she didn't notice that Greta was inside too playing with Austin. Eloisa heard a noise upstairs so when her house staff passed by holding a tray of snacks for two, she asked her.
" Hey, do we have a visitor here?", she said and her staff nodded.
She was confused since no one came into her house except the people who were part of their family. She took the tray from her and offer to bring it upstairs.
"Let me. Anyway, who came here to visit Austin?", she asked her staff again.
She scratches her head trying to remember the name of the guest un
Two months earlier...Gale took care of Lucy after she was buried alive by her abductor. While busy with his business and the penthouse he owned, he didn't neglect to help her.While drinking a glass of wine on his mini bar inside the mansion, a great plan came up to his mind. He wanted to take down his brother and he can use Lucy to take her revenge on Eloisa and Kent too for making her life miserable.He went to the cabin where he kept Lucy to protect her from the people who will go to hurt her. Because of Kent, she almost died.Lucy POVI was having hot milk on the terrace when I saw Gale's car stop in front of the house gate.

Eloisa POV" So he met Gregory and this bastard told him everything? He's dead meat for me." I mumbled as I went back to my car.I saw my husband Kent how he was deeply hurt at Lucy's disappearance. Of course, she was his first love but poor Lucy, I get what I want and she's always a loser until her last breath.I heard also that they're suspecting Greta as Lucy? How come when I saw Lucy's corpse right in front of my eyes. Great Stone was unlucky to have a face like Lucy because she took my lover from me. I hold the steering wheel and pressed my hands on it and glared in my side mirror."Gale is mine too. I will make you vanish like what I did to Lucy and everything will be mine!", I murmured while making my way back to the office.Kings and Queens Hotel are now facing short income and potential investors went down one by one and I don't know why. I had to checks what wrong with our company that they need to let
Gale and Eloisa walked out of the lobby when Cassandra spotted them. She quickly followed them after realizing that she was the woman in the picture. Lucy just left their meeting place and she gave her the advance payment for her first-ever mission as Cassandra."I think this will be my lucky day!", she mumbled after tailing them.Eloisa holds Gale's arms but the guy pushed her gently." Are you insane? We're in a public place and I'm on my way to take my wife to the mall for shopping!", Gale told Eloisa and she rolled her eyes and walked ahead while stamping her heels on the cement road.Gale just shook his head to see Eloisa leaving him. He knows exactly how to handle her especially when it comes to sexual desires. Even she's mad to search on him, a little kiss and pampering touch will make her calm.Cassandra saw the man behind Eloisa and this man looks familiar. She has no idea if he's a celebrity

Gale and Lucy are now on their way to Kent and Eloisa's mansion when Gale received an urgent dinner invitation from the couple. Gale's eyes were preoccupied on the roadway while Lucy's eyes were enjoying the scenery outside the car. It's the first time that they were very quiet together. You can feel the tension between their heavy breathing and gaze ignoring.Until someone breaks the bars against each other. Gale cleared his throat and started a conversation with Lucy."Hey, I noticed that you act differently today like you're in your world! Is something bothering you?", he mumbled.Lucy turned her head to meet his gaze and set her very best smile." Nope. Why would I? I'm just happy that you're always at my side and you won't dare to betray me. That's what I'm thinking right now!", she replied.After hearing it, Gale suddenly became quiet.

Fifteen years agoAlexander and Mr. Paul Sherlock, Eloisa's dad are both having a private meeting inside the Sugo Bar. They ordered different types of Chinese delicacies since they were half Chinese and half Filipino."So, what if we let Kent and Eloisa tie a knot this year? It would be a great opportunity for you when our company is merged as one." Mr. Sherlock uttered while taking his one glass of whiskey.Mr. Stone set a smirk on his face. He likes what Paul is thinking and he had no choice but to accept his offer. Eloisa's dad had a huge base in New York about women trafficking and illegal gambling so as the only child of Sherlock's empire, Kent was lucky to be her husband. They can rebuild their failing business, the Ace Wine Corp and he can have the luxuries too if their family will become one."How can I say no to my best friend? Of course, we've been pairing them since they're young and now, the time has come!", Mr.
Kent can't believe what's going on." Eloisa, did your dad talk to the investors to take back their shares? Tell me!", he can't just sit there and act as nothing happened.After their commotion a while ago, Greta and Gale decided to go home because the two brothers were fighting over false accusations.Eloisa cupped her head because of a headache."What? Why my dad do that? He helped you and your dad with your business so why you take all the blame on him? Because he had a huge share?", Austin was now asleep and the couple is arguing inside their room.Kent glared at her. He can't believe that his wife will talk to him like that." Okay, thanks to your father, we managed to get away from bankruptcy but did you ever know what your father is doing when he's attending business overseas? I heard a rumor about it. Don't dare me!", he warned his wife.Eloisa chuckled."Go, tell the police. Your fat
Two months agoGregory POVIt's been a tough day for me to grab even one dinner order from the food court. Kent's fury eyes still haunting me. I was still trembling to remember that day. It's not my choice to accept Eloisa's offer but it was a last-minute favor and I can't just ignore her when she called me that she was at Tagaytay and she rented a cabin for us. I know it's wrong and forbidden but how can I resist her if she was the one who teases me."Are you coming?", her voice was alluring that I cannot wait for another day.I heard that today was Lucy's first day to be free as an inmate so I decided to wait for her at the front gate of her or is in-house but I was shocked when she ran away from me. I just want to tell her what made me hesitate to visit her for five years. I have my reasons and problems too. I just want to protect her from Eloisa but she's stubborn to see me." Yeah, I'm on my
