TRENTON'S POV

"I want to see this one." I pointed at a heart-shaped diamond ring that I think Denise would like.

I imagined it around her finger and smiled to myself.

"You're really serious about her, huh?" Jake asked beside me, watching me pick the best ring for my soon-to-be bride.

"I knew I wanted to marry her the moment I saw her, little brother. Didn't you feel that way with Carmela?" I lifted an eyebrow at him, pertaining to his wife.

"I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, Trent. That's different. Life doesn't end with marriage. Hell, it isn't guaranteed for some."

He seemed annoyed for whatever reason but I only thought he had a fight with his wife and brushed it off.

"Do you think this one is perfect for Denise?"

I showed him the ring and he frowned.

"That looks like..." He trailed off and sent me a look of mockery. "Deena's ring."

The smile disappeared from my face and I shoved him away.

"Bastard."

He chuckled and I returned the ring to look for anoth

    DEENA'S POVWhen everyone thought she'd pass away that night, Mom managed to pull through. She was able to breathe using the oxygen, and woke up briefly just to show us that she was fighting. "I love you so much, Mom." I kissed her head and stared at her with puffy eyes. I had been crying the whole night. I did nothing but cry and pray that if God wants to take her from us, at least don't let her suffer.But Mom fought. She's still fighting cancer. She still wants to be with us."The doctor said she might not be able to stand for too long or walk again even if she wakes up. Her body would be too weak and she might depend on the oxygen." I told Trent who was standing beside me. Surprisingly, he insisted on staying with me the whole night despite having Daniel with me. He said he didn't want to leave me like I didn't leave him when he was in a coma. Our last meeting was unpleasant, but at least he still knows how to show appreciation. Leonora was reluctant for him to stay and I kno

    DEENA'S POV"J-Jake?" I stuttered and immediately hid Rosie behind me but when I saw the look on his face, I knew that it was already too late."I was the one who found her wandering around. There is no need to hide her." I panicked and my body moved before my mind could decide what I should do. Before I knew it, I was already running away from him with my daughter in my arms."They wouldn't be able to take you away from me. I won't allow it." I kissed my daughter's head and cradled her in my arms while comforting her. "Deena, stop it! I just want to talk!" And how would I know if he's telling the truth? He could be lying so he could take my daughter away from me."I won't take her from you!" Maybe because Jake was a lot taller and faster than me, he was able to catch up and he blocked our path."If I wanted to take her, I would have done so the moment I saw you two earlier," he said while panting and I stiffened. "I already spotted you with her a few minutes before she got lost.

    DEENA'S POVAfter finishing the movie, we still had to promote it by guesting and doing interviews. When the movie finally came out a few months later, everyone's hard work paid off when it became the movie of the year.The movie has successfully garnered and earned triple to our original budget. It has trended worldwide and received a lot of good reviews from critics.Not only that, we were overwhelmed by the amount of awards we received. Alexander won best actor for the second time, while it was my first time to win a major award and it's for the best actress category. I just beat legendary and some of the best actresses in the industry.I didn't expect to win at all, so when my name was called, my eyes almost popped out of its sockets and it took some time to process it until Alexander escorted me to the stage.I held the award with my shaking hands and tears welling up in my eyes. I was overwhelmed with so much happiness."I... I'm sorry. I honestly didn't prepare any speech becau

    DEENA'S POV"I finally found you." Alexander breathed a sigh of relief and my eyes instantly welled up with tears. He was in front of me in a second, pulling me in his embrace, wrapping me in his warmth. I melted and cried my heart out, pouring every emotion I bottled up inside me, and finally letting my guard down after fighting for God knows how long."I thought you left me. I-I thought you died," I croaked, clinging desperately onto him, as if he will disappear soon and I will realize that everything was just a dream."No," he said, pulling away so he could look at me. "I fought with everything I had to be with you again. I knew you were out here somewhere. I knew we'd be together again and I was right." He leaned his forehead on mine and we stared at each other for a moment, just cherishing the moment. Alex's face lowered and his lips claimed mine in a kiss full of longing and love."And we'll never part again." I said with a smile when we pulled away."I won't leave you ever ag

    DEENA'S POV"One date and you became the talk of the town, Dee. A lot of speculations are going around about you and Alexander." Cassie chuckled and showed me an app where my name is currently trending, and I only turned my face slightly because my hair was getting styled for today's shoot."Won't it affect the movie badly? I mean, we've only filmed three scenes. You know how possessive fans can be." Jane voiced her concern and I pursed my lips to think. I've been in a lot of dating scandals, but none of them were real because they knew I was married or in a relationship, but it's different this time because everyone knows I'm single. "I don't think so. I mean, Alexander has always been vocal about his crush on Deena, so it shouldn't come as a surprise. Plus, I think it will help us with the promotion of the movie." "How's the date anyway?" Jane asked the moment the makeup artist stepped out of my tent. My eyes shifted from Jane to Cassie who were both waiting for my response. "He
