Upset about the sudden marriage arrangement, Via ran away from home to come back with shocking news: she was pregnant and did not even know who the father was. Due to disappointment, her father sent her away. But after a few years, she was asked to return with her adorable twins. Little did she know that as soon as she stepped foot in her home country, she would once again encounter the stranger who gifted her two adorable children, and her life would be turned upside down when the man started pursuing her. “We already had children together. Aren't we a little more than strangers?”
View MoreAs Via waited for Cassie at the café, she couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over her. It was comforting to know that she wasn't alone in this, that she had someone she could rely on, no matter what.As she sat there, nursing a cup of fruit tea, her mind raced with a thousand different thoughts and emotions. How had her life taken such a drastic turn in such a short amount of time? How would she navigate the challenges that lay ahead?But amidst the chaos of her thoughts, one thing remained clear: she couldn't do this alone. She needed Cassie's guidance, her support, her friendship, now more than ever.She smiled when she remembered how she met Cassie. It was during one of those parties that her Dad had thrown for Collin and the children of their business partners were all invited. She was sitting alone in a corner, sulking because the attention of her one and only brother weren’t hers alone on that day.She wanted to monopolize Collin but she knew that the party was for hi
The morning sun filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across Via's bedroom as she slowly blinked her eyes open. She lay in bed for a moment, her mind still heavy with the weight of the previous day's revelations. As she stretched her limbs, she couldn't shake the nagging sense of unease that gnawed at her insides.With a sigh, she pushed herself upright, running a hand through her tousled hair as she swung her legs over the edge of the bed. Today was a new day, she reminded herself. But despite trying to be optimistic, her heart and mind was once again filled with worries of what was about to happen. What should she do from now on?It took a lot of courage for her to get out of bed and prepare for another day at school. Before she went out of her room, she checked her phone and her heart felt heavy when she saw Troye’s missed calls and texts.How could she face him after knowing her situation? She could no longer get married to him. Once she tells her family about her con
“How was it?” Cassie asked as soon as she was out.“We’ve done some tests and I need to wait for the results to know my condition,” Via explained as she tried to appear calm even when deep inside her whole being was shaken.“I hope it wasn’t anything serious,” Cassie mumbled as she clasped her hands in worry.As Via sat in the waiting room, her fingers fidget nervously in her lap. She couldn't shake the feeling of dread that clung to her like a heavy cloak. The ticking of the clock on the wall seemed to echo in her ears, each passing second only serving to heighten her anxiety.Beside her, Cassie sat with a reassuring hand placed gently on her shoulder, her presence a welcome comfort in the midst of Via's turmoil. "Hang in there, Via," she whispered, her voice a soothing balm to Via's frayed nerves. "You're strong, I believe you can handle whatever the result would be. Remember that I’m always here for you."Via managed a weak smile, though it did little to dispel the knot of tension
“Are you okay, Vi? It’s rare for you to sleep in.” Collin opened the door on Via’s room to check on her. He saw his sister still asleep but her forehead was creased.He checked her temperature through her forehead and was relieved that she was not having a fever. He shook his sister lightly to wake her up.“You’re going to school today, right?” Collin asked as soon as Via opened her eyes.“What time is it?” Via who was still sleepy asked as she covered herself with her blanket.“It’s already eight in the morning. We’re done with our breakfast,” Collin informed her. “Should I ask the maids to bring your breakfast here if you’re not feeling well?”“Yes, please.” Her lazy tone made Collin laugh.“It’s very rare for you to act all lazy like this, Vi.” Collin stood up and walked towards the door. “I’ll have your breakfast sent here so make sure you eat, okay?”“I will.” Via closed her eyes again and she could feel her head throbbing early in the morning. The headaches and fatigue were gett
“He’s here to pick you up again.” Cassie rolled her eyes.It had been weeks since the announcement of her engagement with Troye and it had been a usual thing for Troye to pick her up after her classes. He was really serious about getting to know each other more and they were hitting it off pretty well.“Do you want to come with us, Cassie?” Troye offered as soon as he saw Cassie’s pouting face.“Why would I be third-wheeling for the two of you?” Cassie said in an annoyed tone.“Why not? Via and I are just hanging out so we could bring another person with us if we want to.”Via smiled. Troye was indeed considerate. He was not just trying to win her over, he was also trying to get along with her best friend.“Can I invite my sister, Vi? Tricia wants to see you again.”Via nodded her head before she looked at Cassie. “You won’t be third-wheeling if we include Troye’s sister, right?”Cassie sighed in defeat. “I guess I can’t do anything if you wanted me that much.”Troye opened the backse
“How was it?” Odin asked as soon as Collin entered his office. “They were getting along well for the past few days.” Collin let out a smile. “I knew he would be a good match for Via, but he exceeded expectations.” “That’s for the better. As long as the two were getting along each other, the bond between the two families will grow stronger.” Collin’s smile faded. Though Odin was their father, he still felt like a stranger at times like that. He could have just wished the two well, how could he emphasize the mergers that would happen once the two were married? For him, Via was his precious sister. There was nothing more important for him than her. But he was still powerless against their father. All he could do for her was to make sure that she would marry a decent guy. They were lucky that their father chose Troye. Though he did not like him at first, he conducted a background investigation about him and found out that he was the best match for her. He was kind, polite, thoughtful
“This is just like I imagined it to be...” Via mumbled as they entered the gates of the amusement park. She looked around, her eyes sparkling like a child’s her sight fell into the colorful paradise around her.“I didn’t expect you to be this happy with just this.” Troye chuckled. He was hesitant at first, but he was relieved that he tried bringing her to that place.He thought that Via would be more uncomfortable and forced since the outing happened out of a sudden. That was why it was really unfortunate that Via seemed to like the idea of going to an amusement park. He should thank his little sister for the idea she gave him.“Well, it’s my first time going to places like this. It’s normal that I would be amazed, right?” Via looked away, her cheeks flushed from embarrassment.“Of course, it’s normal.” Troye chuckled as he led the way.Though he was glad to see that Via was having fun, he could not stop feeling bad for her. He knew that they all got different circumstances, but how c

"You prefer Mocha Espresso Right?"Via nodded. She watched Troye talk to the intercom about their order and smiled. He even brought her to her favorite coffee shop to buy her usual drink. It seemed like that meeting was not made on a whim. To her, it seemed like Troye prepared everything in advance and made sure that she would enjoy her time with him.Was it what they call a date? Her cheeks felt warm at the thought. She enjoyed the silence between them as Troye continued to drive towards their destination."We're here."The car stopped at the entrance of the park. Troye was about to remove his seatbelt but Via stopped him."I can go out of the car on my own. No need to always open the door for me.""But I insist." Troye did not seem to want to give in but Via already opened the door and went out."Park the car quick. I'll be waiting here near the entrance."Troye chuckled. "Fine. Don't go around without me, okay?"Via nodded. She did not have choice but to wait for him anyway.As so
