Cheryl knew that her decision to ask Rafael to sleep with her in that small room was the stupidest decision in her life.The bed was too small, so very small that their bodies were completely in contact with each other as they lay together.Cheryl's hands trembled. Not because of the influence of her closeness with Rafael, but because she was really cold. Especially when the rain fell harder and filled the window above her head with water droplets that didn't stop flowing."Are you still cold?" Rafael asked while tilting his body towards Cheryl.Cheryl shifted her body, but the wall on her left stopped her movement. There was no room left to stay away from Rafael, who was now facing right at him."Can a glass of hot chocolate not warm you up?" Rafael reached out, brought Cheryl's head onto his shoulder, and hugged Cheryl's body with his big body.Rafael's embrace immediately sent a warm sensation all over her skin. Cheryl closed her eyes slowly and couldn't help but accept Rafael's em
"Cheryl," called Rafael, sitting behind Cheryl while drying her long hair with a towel.Cheryl still refuses to open her eyes because every time her eyes are exposed to light and air, she will feel pain"What?" She muttered under her breath in an irritated voice."Do you know how to rinse hair?" Raphael asked in a doubtful voice."Of course, I know!" Cheryl exclaimed with confidence. Cheryl still remembers her struggles when she forced herself to wash her hair alone because she couldn't stand the condition of her hair. After struggling to endure with stinging eyes, Rafael is now trying to mock her. It doesn't make sense!"Are you sure you rinsed it properly?""Don't ask too many questions, Raphael. Just dry my hair as soon as you can. I'm cold!" Cheryl looked at Rafael with glaring eyes, a little annoyed because Rafael didn't finish his work immediately when she was trying to stay afloat, even though her eyes hurt so much." I just found out that you can't wash your hair,” Rafael laug
Cheryl walked into her grandmother's mansion in slow steps. Her legs ached after she had run all night with Rafael, who had just left her a few hours ago.She didn't know what Rafael was doing, but Rafael left her alone with the driver and bodyguard.Not long after Rafael went, Alejandro's escort car arrived, and Cheryl decided to go along with her bodyguard after explaining to Rafael's bodyguard that the person who came to pick her up was one of the personal bodyguards at her Grandma's mansion."Where have you been, Cheryl? Why your phone can't be reached?"Cheryl knew that she would receive a long line of questions from her Grandma as soon as she entered the mansion. However, at this time, Cheryl was too tired to explain about what had happened and where she had been going all night.“Grandma, I'll tell you everything later. But right now, I'm very sleepy. I need sleep and my comfortable bed." Cheryl whimpered softly, hoping her spoiled voice would delay the woman's prepared interro
Even though they have known each other since childhood, Cheryl and Carlos have been trapped in a relationship without the blessing of their parents. Not only her Daddy, but Mateo also often shows his disapproval whenever Cheryl tells about her wedding plans with Carlos. However, three months ago, everything changed. Jackson finally gave permission after a long silence every time Cheryl and Carlos showed their seriousness. After struggling for years, Cheryl and Carlos finally got the chance to formalize their relationship through a simple engagement party held privately at his family's mansion. Cheryl doesn't like a party that is held privately. She likes luxury and also the attention that is only focused on her. However, everything about her wishes was always the opposite of Carlos's. It's okay. It's just an engagement party. Carlos had promised that he would make her dream wedding come true at their wedding party. "Hey, you've been waiting for me for a long time?" Cheryl walked gr
Veronica: Where are you? No kidding, Cheryl.Cheryl frowned when she read the short message sent by Veronica. She wondered, did Veronica know she was in Las Vegas to meet Rafael?Cheryl: What's wrong? I was at Grandma's house. Do you want to go here?Less than a minute later, Veronica sent a reply message.Veronica: Don't mess around, Cheryl. Did you come to Rafael's casino last night?Cheryl: How do you know?Cheryl impatiently tapped her finger on the phone screen when she didn't receive Veronica's reply."Quick," she muttered in annoyance.Veronica: I did ask you to play with him, but not to harm yourself.Cheryl: What do you mean?Veronica: Rafael's phone is with you, right?Cheryl blinked. She just remembered that she had not returned Rafael's cell phone. Instead, it was still in… in her trouser pocket.Oh no! Doesn't that mean she has a chance to meet Rafael again soon?Cheryl groaned in frustration in her heart. She didn't understand what was going on, which made her focus ofte
Cheryl stared at the piece of raw salmon in front of her. Instantly her stomach churned at the thought of raw meat in her mouth. However, like it or not, she still had to chew the food and swallow it with difficulty."Cheryl, I'm sorry I forgot that you don't like eating raw fish." Carlos noticed Cheryl's tormented expression as she was forced to chew the piece of salmon in her mouth."Not only raw fish, but Cheryl doesn't like all fish dishes either," Jackson added calmly. He glanced at Cheryl and smiled mockingly.Again, Cheryl felt as if her Daddy had wanted to tell her something, but he didn't want to say it directly. Cheryl knew her Daddy well, and it seemed that he wanted to play riddles with her now."Oh really? I just found out you don't like processed fish, Cheryl." Luisa commented.Cheryl smiled awkwardly, “I just don't like it. Not allergic to fish. I don't think there's anything wrong if I try salmon now.”"Don't force yourself," whispered Carissa in her ear.Cheryl's eyes
“Carlos, you cheat! You shouldn't have killed my horse!” Cheryl exclaimed in annoyance when Carlos again managed to read the move she had planned for her chess game.This time—correctly, since this morning Carlos had come to the Mansion to keep Cheryl company all day. Her Daddy and Mommy are back in Manhattan because they will travel to Barcelona tonight. Meanwhile, Cheryl decided to stay in Las Vegas before she returned to her busy life at Diamonique.Since a few hours ago, Cheryl and Carlos have tried various kinds of games in this Mansion. Starting from playing bowling, swimming, to golf. Having fun. They are having fun. And Cheryl was very happy because Carlos wanted to take time out of his busy life to be able to spend time with her."Then, should I give up on you?" Carlos laughed softly. He rubbed Cheryl's face in a gentle motion before giving a kiss on the tip of her forehead. "Princess, I will never lose to you," he said with full confidence.Cheryl snorted in annoyance. She s
Cheryl knew her decision to come to the airport at 11:40 in the middle of the night was stupid. Maybe Cheryl would wake up feeling regret tomorrow—perhaps she would curse her decision tonight. However, her mind suddenly stopped working. Empty. She didn't know where to go after asking Carlos for freedom.Only until her wedding day. After that, Cheryl will return to her old self. She will try to understand and always follow whatever Carlos says.Happy life? Yes, of course, it would be a happy life. They'd get married, have a kid or two, then live happily ever after. Oh, maybe not forever. They will fight and blame each other but eventually get back together again.Maybe they just needed some time to calm their minds."Yesterday, someone refused my invitation by saying that she did not want to run away with a poor man." Rafael sneered. He threw a brown food packet containing a burger."No problem, I'll pay for everything. I'm filthy rich, and I still have money,” Cheryl looked around, “W
