AUSTIN arrived a few minutes later after having their coffee. Triana urged him to have a cup of tea, but he declined.

“We had a cup of tea a while ago, thanks. Shall we go now?” Austin asked. He didn’t wear his bodyguard suit, only a casual outfit—a plain white shirt at jeans paired with signature sneakers. Actually, he looked more like a model than a bodyguard.

Austin drove them to the flower farm. Devance left the black sports car he used earlier. Triana learned that the Chaudharys had a vacation house somewhere in Camarines Sur and Devance probably drove early to avoid the traffic.

According to Devance’s instructions, they went to the flower farm near the city. It was the same place where Caleb proposed to Triana.

“Come, let’s buy the jade vine,” Devance said when they went out of the car.

Triana followed him. Austin strolled in front of them while still alert, looking around.

Triana was mesmerized by the flowers that sprawled around. There were different kinds of plants giving co

    ONE week had passed quickly, and the moment Triana had waited for so long came. At last, she’d meet Caleb tomorrow in Paris. It was a perfect time since their parents went to Barcelona for a few days’ vacation. And after that, the Chaudharys would travel to Iceland for the holidays. It was Triana’s idea to celebrate Christmas Eve under the Northern Lights. Then they’d return to the Philippines for the New Year’s celebration and the fourth death anniversary of her father.“You’re beaming today,” Devance complimented her while fixing her things.“Of course, finally I can see the love of my life after almost three months! The well is getting dry.”Devance looked at her, confused. “The… what?!”“Oh, never mind.” Triana giggled. It seemed that Devance’s dirty humor was contagious. Unlike before, she could joke around with him like this because she was comfortable.“Did I hear it right? The well is getting dry?” Devance laughed out loud. “Sorry for being slow. I didn’t know you had this sen

    INSIDE Caleb’s office in Makati, everyone was busy with the preliminary bidding on the conference room. He was not obliged to attend because he had already assigned this task to his Project Manager. Caleb sat comfortably on his swivel chair while browsing pictures from Lara’s social media account. She was with Triana. The latter had no penchant for this kind of update because she valued her privacy.It appeared that she was already in Paris. Triana must be waiting for his arrival so they could celebrate the Christmas holidays together. Caleb was only fixing his schedule so that everything would still be in order when he left for a few days.Then something popped into his notification that Lara posted a story. Caleb’s jaw immediately flexed when he saw Devance kiss Triana in the background. It could be a simple gesture, but it stirred his jealousy. They looked so sweet, like a real couple having fun.Caleb hardly clasped his cell phone and harshly sighed. He almost broke it when he put

    THE house was peaceful again after the Festival of Lights. Triana’s family returned to the Philippines after enjoying their vacation. Akhil requested a family meeting inside the library on the third floor.“We will proceed with the European trip. You will join us to meet different investors and attend several business conferences as part of your training before I appoint you as the top-ranking executives of the company. Being the Chairman and the CEO of AGC is no joke, I’m telling you,” Akhil explained to the couple. Gracia was seated beside him, listening in silence.Triana and Devance tilted their heads. “We’ll do everything to help you grow your empire, Dad.”“With my guidance. I know you will,” Akhil was confident.“I admit I’m easy-go-lucky, but I took my studies seriously when I went to Oxford.” Devance sounded proud. He looked at Triana and winked. Because aside from the flight school in Amsterdam, he also attended a business course at Oxford University.“I promise to help as w

    THE Festival of Lights finally came, and just as expected, the Chaudharys were busy attending to their guests, mainly extended families from different parts of the world. They were Akhil’s relatives, and there was a feast for a few days. Lucia, along with the twins, also arrived to celebrate with them.The house was full of colorful lights. Triana felt this festival was equal to Christmas. Until now, she couldn’t memorize these numerous festivals of this country. But one of the things that surprised her was that their calendar year was approximately more than fifty-six years ahead compared to the Gregorian calendar. Everything she learned about Devance’s heritage made her in awe.The celebration lasted for almost a week. Triana could not deny she was exhausted from socializing with the visitors. And she had to sleep with Devance every night to avoid suspicion. Devance had been complaining about his backache from sleeping on the couch since Triana would not let him sleep on the same be

    DEXA angrily entered her room and shoved a few crystal vases with fresh red roses on the bedside table. Everything broke, and yet it was not enough. She even kicked a large ceramic vase in her collection. It was her favorite, and too late for her to regret despite realizing her hardship of acquiring it from China, and it was recorded from the Qing Dynasty. The intricate pottery was shattered into pieces.“Damn you, bitch!” She was so mad at Triana and disappointed in her father, especially with Devance. She couldn’t believe they’d joined forces to humiliate her.“Liars!” Dexa was enraged. She knew Xavier was not perfect, but she was sure he loved her and would never do such an odious thing to Triana. He promised to start a new life with her before they married two years ago. He even swore that he’d change for the better only for her. And she believed him.She scurried to the walk-in closet. It was full of her luxury collections of bags and shoes. But she only got her few favorites and

    “I’M SORRY, darling.” Triana was teary-eyed as she glanced at Caleb. They immediately went back to the hotel because Akhil had called her. He asked where they were at the moment. As if making sure that she was with Devance.“No need to be sorry. You know I always understand you. Somehow, I’ve predicted this will happen once you get married. And I settled with it, right? I’m happy at least we’re together even for two days.” Caleb embraced her tight. He helped her pack her things after a while.Triana bit her lower lip when everything was ready. Sadness clouded her heart. She didn’t know when to see him again. She knew Caleb was a very busy man, and he would always make time for her. Just like now, he traveled extra miles to meet her.She hugged him from his back. “I’ll miss you. I promise to find ways to meet you again. Devance will help us.”Caleb heaved a sigh. He clasped her hand and faced her. “I see you’re getting close to Devance. I admit I’m jealous and afraid you’d fall for him
