Ellie’s POV“Go, Ellie. Take a rest."I was just coming out of the bathroom when I saw Keeion in front of his two personal computers. Two computers are not enough because the laptop is still on the table. It's been busy for a while. After we ate it went straight to the bedroom. He invited me to sleep here because that's exactly what it should be. It's been our room ever since. Now that my memory is back, it was only then that I understood what Lady Keilah meant when I met her in the hallway. That's why he told me that the room I'm in is different because that's where I have to sleep with Keeion. Keeion told me earlier that Tito Sebastian and Tita Keilah knew nothing about the accident that happened to me which caused me to lose my memories. Even Cyrill didn't know and only Cyfer told Keeion what happened. So they were unaware the day they came back here. The whole they thought, I knew them and never forgot. Fortunately, they didn't notice.I walked closer to Keeion. He leaned back in
Ellie’s POVI woke up because of the noise coming from something falling. I slowly opened my eyes and immediately searched for where that noise was coming from.My attention was focused on the person in the bedroom’s mini kitchen."Did I wake you up?" It turned to me and even though it was quite far away, he noticed that I was awake. “My hand slipped so your bowl fell. I’m sorry, love, if I disturbed your sleep.”He’s wearing a white t-shirt and boxer shorts. He was also wearing a black apron. He is currently in the kitchen and cooking.He woke up earlier than me. Well, that's just the way he is. I remember that ever since, he was really the first to wake us up. I was the sleep-fat of the two of us while he was even ahead of the alarm clock."It's okay," I said and smiled.I missed his routine like this before. Every time I wake up, breakfast is ready because he cooks for himself. From the time we became until we were married, there wasn’t a day that he didn’t cook for me. Even though
Ellie’s POV"Why are you here?" I repeat the question to Sydney.She didn’t immediately answer when she saw me. She seemed surprised when I saw her here in front of Keeion's condo. She probably didn’t expect to see me. Maybe she doesn't even know what happened to me. Well, I also stayed at the Hacienda for a few months so it was possible she didn’t know because of the length of time she hadn’t seen me.I’ve known Sydney ever since. Just before Keeion and I met, it was right next to him. How? She's the only daughter of Keeion's Daddy's business partner ever since it started. So Sydney is also close to the Ruiz family. It’s nice when facing Keeion’s family. But when it came to me, she almost grabbed me.Even then, I was aware that she didn't like me. Maybe as soon as she sees me, her blood is already boiling. It hit me so hard that she almost killed me with its evil look. But even so, I still live with it. She’s even closer to Keeion’s Daddy. Maybe when I scolded her, she would complain
Sydney’s POVAfter I said what I wanted to say to Keeion, I left first. I went out to the coffee shop and left him there. I no longer waited for his answer because I wanted to give him time to think.There's a high chance that he will reject me right away. So I'd better leave him as soon as he thinks carefully about what I'm offering. I knew how much he wanted to get what I told him so I still didn’t lose hope of using that weakness of his.Well, I just told him I knew who the person behind it all was. I know the person who is ruining his name in the company. I know the person who made that transaction in his personal account.His reaction before is still fresh in my mind. He was eager to know who that person was. Perhaps until now, it still doesn’t catch on who it is. Most likely, that transaction was done well and cleanly. They have no trace available there to trace who made it. So he was just so excited when I announced that I already knew this person. But the joy on his face also
Keeion’s POVI didn’t even wait for Sydney to speak on the other line. I dropped this call after I said my decision. Maybe she's smiling now because she's got the answer she wants from me. This is exactly what she has always wanted. Now that she has figured out a way to make what she wants easier, this is what she does to me. I’m aware that she’s manipulating me. She uses what she knows to get me. She knows as much as this is my weakness at these times and there is a good chance I will give in to her. What she was planning has already happened.I sighed and put the cellphone down on the bed. I went to the glass window of the bedroom to view the quiet night city where we were. Massive buildings can be seen from below and bright shops that are open 24/7. I stayed there for a few minutes to calm down and be able to think clearly.I don’t like what Sydney is doing to me. I don’t want to do the things she makes me do. But for the sake of clearing my name and saving the credibility of the c
Ellie’s POVEven before they came out, I could see Sydney. It was really the courage of her to kiss Keeion right in front of me. Because she has something in her hand that is important. Without that, Keeion probably wouldn’t have let her do that. I know Keeion how much he respects me. He can’t afford to hurt me, especially right in front of me. But that earlier, I understand because he had to act in front of Sydney as he wished.I didn't follow what Sydney wanted to happen. Yeah, that sounds pretty crap to me. Looks like Keeion ain't for me either. We will not separate so easily. We will not part just for Sydney.Sydney is just having fun now. She was so excited because as far as she knew, she had already gotten Keeion from me. Doesn’t she wonder that it’s just that easy? The day Keeion finds out who the person behind the destruction of his name is, he won’t even hesitate to stay away from Sydney. Keeion didn't say a word about the agreement he had with Sydney. After all, Keeion wants
Ellie’s POV"What are you doing here?" There was a tremor in his voice.Sydney's reaction was startled when she turned to see me. Her eyes widened in shock so she stood up at the same time. She was holding the back of the chair while looking at me.Even its companion could not believe that they were facing me now. They never thought I would catch them here. That in the crowd, they will still see me in this restaurant. Well, I was also surprised. We were both just surprised. After all, I should have been the most surprised of them.I mean, they really have a connection. The reaction of the two of them was not normal. If they have nothing to hide, this is not how they will act. They shouldn't be surprised or even apprehensive even though I've learned from them. Why are they nervous if they have nothing to hide, right? No matter who catches them they know, that’s just nothing. They just prove that my guess is true.“I should be asking you that, Sydney. What are you doing here?” My gaze f
Ellie’s POV“What is it, Sydney? Let's stop this. Let go of Ellie and let's stop our plan. The outcome will not be good. This will lead to the worst situation so please, let's end this!”“Are you thinking, Cyfer? Are we going to stop now when we are about to get what we want?”I woke up to the shouting of two people near me.My head was still aching so I didn't get up right away. I could feel what was around me. I also rolled my eyes to every corner of the room where I am now. Its door was open so I could hear the two talking.Where am I?What did they do to me?I remember the last thing that happened earlier. Anger welled up in me when I remembered Sydney covering my mouth with a handkerchief causing me to lose consciousness. I meant what she did to stop me from knowing what Cyfer wanted to say earlier. And what happened next? They brought me here to this place? It’s not familiar to me so there’s probably a chance they hid me here.I was about to get up to leave this place when I was
