Serina recalled she saved a cat with a wound in its foreleg, just a little above its paw.
"I'm sure I saw it here... but it's empty now."
She stared at the grass in the garden and asked herself why there was no trace of the cat. In the past, she helped the cat clean its wound.
"Bizarre..."
"Are you looking for something? How may I help you, ma'am?'
"Well... I'm supposed to help a cat here..." says Serina while pointing to the empty grass. "It has brown fur and round onyx eyes..." She momentarily stopped when her eyes met the stranger's eye.
'This guy resembles that cat... he has
Since the awaited last relative had come, the banquet had to end shortly after a few catching up."We're heading out now, grandpa. My wife and children must have been having jet lag since we came here as soon we depart the private plane.""Uncle, we are also taking our leave now." Lucilla stood up and kissed the Chairman's cheek."Thank you for coming all the way here, despite your tight schedule.""We can't possibly miss the only young Liverteo's marriage. Don't forget to send us the ceremony invitation," says Aldrin.Everyone left, and only the three of them remained on the rooftop.
A ray of sunlight through the balcony kissed Vincaster's cheeks. He opened his eyes, and the first thing he caught was a sleeping figure of a woman with a pair of long, thick lashes, a rosy cheek, and pouty lips. He had been sleeping beside this woman for the whole week, and he is convinced that..."She's indeed beautiful," says Vincaster while touching the tip of Serina's nose. "I didn't know why sleeping next to you has been a real rest... I might get used to waking up like this," he murmured and a smile formed on his lips, which soon hid as his wife started to show the sign of waking up.Serina slowly opened her eyes, and a bored look of Vincaster greeted her. She thought that the guy beside her was making fun of her bare-just-wake-up face."How did I end up
"Since Dani is not yet awake, let me cook our breakfast, grandpa." Serina volunteered to prepare an eggroll, fried bacon, and onion rings. The chairman nodded and left to go to the dining area."Wifey, brew me a coffee, please," says Vincaster with a loud voice as he kisses his wife's cheek.Serina wanted to wipe her cheeks if only the chairman had not eyed them from the table, next to the kitchen with only glass served as its divider."Just leave me alone and go to the table," she uttered in a voice that only the two of them could hear."Let me help you carry this tray of dishes," says Vincaster while holding the tray before Serina could protest. She rolled her eyes while holding a tray of coffe
Vincaster's words touched her sensitive spots as his hot breathed smokes adrenaline rash on her body.“Pervert!” She punched Vincaster’s belly before unlocking the door. Serina was surprised when the chairman passed by the restroom."O-ouch, you-" Vincsater managed not to call her names out of rage from what Serina did to him when he heard his grandpa's voice.“Why is he crouching on the floor?”“He has a stomach ache, don’t worry grandpa. He’s usually like that before showering.”"Alright. I need to go to the hospital. You guys can manage on your own, right?" says the 83-year-old fou
Serina handed out the examination paper and observed the class until the examination was over.“Time's up! Class, kindly pass your paper.”Suddenly, her phone rang, then one of her students caught a glimpse of her screen. She decided to decline and put the phone back on top of the test papers.“Class! Those who lost the bet shall treat the winners from this class in the cafeteria.”“What's this commotion all about?” Serina has no idea that her student made a bet on her personal life.“We made a bet ma’am.”&nbs
Vincaster received a report about the attempted kidnapping case of an LV grade 12 student, so he had no choice but to go there.“How are the things in the academy, Mr. Atun?”“It’s settled, sire. You don’t need to come here. Fortunately, two of our faculty saved the girl and the parents promised to protect the image of the school. Also, the police promised to keep the incident confidential as it might affect the school’s image.”“Those two needs recognition, so what’s their name?”“Mr. Marivelles and Ms. Alpheus of Humanities.""Ms. Alpheus...""Yes, sir. Ms. Serina Alpheus, she's been our faculty for three years.""Alright, I shall talk to her— I mean them."Instead of waiting at their usual place, Vincaster parked his car inside the school parki
"Finally, I'm at home... I mean in your pad. This isn't my home after all.""Exactly, because your home is here," says Vincaster while pointing at his left chest."Ewww~" she replied, wearing a disappointed look.Vincaster laughed at Serina's reaction. "Tell me, you panicked when I looked back, and you thought I would call you, right?""Who wouldn't panic? Have you ever thought of what my student assumed if she saw us together?""It's not a bad thing. We can bribe that girl to shut her mouth," he replied while placing the picture frames they brought."You think money can solve everyth
"Don't tell me you have no plans of having children at all? Vincaster, this is not about your choice of being childless because whether you like it or not, you have to secure a future heir.""Can we not talk about heir or whatsoever? My wife is kind of sensitive with that topic, and I don't want to pressure her yet."Serina understood that it was the consequence of being an only child of a wealthy family. She has seen it in drama, and now she is convinced that drama is usually reality-based.After that conversation, everyone shut their mouth, and no one dared to break the silence until they finished their dinner."Hija, would you mind escorting me to the garden?"
