My mouth fell open in shock and I was so flabbergasted that I was mistaken for a prostitute, but I was more offended by the amount he offered!

"A hundred? Go buy a sex toy or something, jerk. I'm not a prostitute and even if I am, you can't afford me."

I thought the ugly man would stop harassing me but he followed me with his car and I ended up running from him. In my haste to get away, I ended up on an unfamiliar road where cars barely passed.

"I must have betrayed my country in my past life." I mumbled to myself and I was to walk back to the nearest bus stop when a loud screech was heard and there was a loud collision of cars.

I gasped loudly, my eyes widening in horror when I saw how the red sports car flipped a few times. The van that it collided with did not even stop and escaped with the wheels screeching on the pavement.

"Hey! Don't leave! You just hit a person!" I tried running after the van and tried to see their plate number but it was too dark.

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    CVI: Lost

    DEENA'S POVFor the second day, the game was set to be held in a forest. Trenton and I were set to leave from there because I only agreed on two days.Things have been a little awkward between us after we both answered 'no' to the last question thrown at us. Of course my answer was a lie. Why would I say yes on national TV when the man had just gotten engaged?And of course, his 'no' felt like a heavy weight on my chest.So far, I'm closer to Tiffany, a newbie actress from Ethan's company. She has a bubbly attitude and she lights up the whole room with her positive energy. "Guys, please don't wander too far. Our signal can only reach a certain distance and if you're too far, we might not be able to reach you. You don't have your phones on you either. But if in any case that you get lost, stay where you are and we'll find you." A staff member reminded us just as we got off the bus."We have medics and rescue on stand by just in case so don't worry too much. And don't worry because the

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    CV: Guest Ex-Couple

    DEENA'S POV"Deena, they are asking if you'd do guesting since you're currently on hiatus?" Cassie asked me one morning while I was jogging inside the village. "What show?" I asked and hydrated myself with water. "Ex-factor with Trent." I paused for a minute. Closed the cap of my tumbler with a sigh and wiped off my sweat. It was a really hot day and it felt like I was punishing myself. "I guess I can, but only for two days max." Last time we had guests, they stayed for a week and I didn't want to stay that long with Trent. Not after his engagement with Denise was just announced earlier this week. It wouldn't feel right."Alright. I will talk to them, then I'll get back at you." I decided to go home before I faint. I played with Rosie and personally taught her some new words. When afternoon came, I left her with the care of her nanny to meet with Ethan for a serious matter. "How's your break and how are you so far? I think it looks good on you, Dee." Ethan interrogated me the m

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    CIV: Marry Me

    TRENTON'S POV"Why weren't you answering your phone, babe? I have been calling you for hours." I followed Denise inside her condo when she opened the door for me with a scowl on her face. She didn't answer and went to the kitchen to continue whatever she was doing when I came."Ah, so you're giving me the silent treatment now? I already apologized. I'm sorry, hmm?" I tried consoling her and touching her but she stopped me before I could."You ditched me, Trent. I waited the whole night for you but you never came." I let out a deep sigh and stood in front of the counter. "I'm sorry. I really am. It was just... I couldn't leave Deena alone. You know what she and her mother did to me, Den. They were with me the whole time I was in a coma. I just wanted to return the favor." I carefully explained and she dropped the knife roughly before sending me a glare."Do you think I'm mad because of that? Do you think I am that shallow-minded? I was mad because you let me wait in vain without tel

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    CIII: Give Yourself Time to Heal

    DEENA'S POVTo cope with my mother's death, I focused my attention on my business and Rosie. I would balance my time by personally managing the cafe and the studio, and by noon, I'd be home to bond with my daughter.Not to mention the occasional meetings with brands I'm endorsing."Hi, what can we do for you?" "I want a refund for my order. Your coffee tastes like shit and a dollar worth of pastry is better than your cake." I looked up from the paper I was holding to see a woman at the counter. It's time for inventory and I was checking what are the things we need to buy or perhaps upgrade."We're sorry to hear that you are not pleased by our product, but unfortunately, I don't think we can do that, ma'am. Your cup is already half-empty and the cake is almost done, too. You've already consumed more than half, and if we refund you, it would be cut from our paycheck." "Does it look like I give a shit? You should be thankful I even touched it!" By now, most of the customers' attentio

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    CII: 'Til the End

    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

  • Another Chance At Love—But Which Ex?!    C: Let Me Be Your Strength Tonight

    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
