★Sienna's POV★

“Then prove it to us,” Matilda challenged with a smug grin as she shot me a sharp glare.

Before I could react, Denver grabbed my arm and spun me around to face him. In a blink, our lips met again.

Oh. My. Goodness. My knees nearly gave out from underneath me. The kiss lingered for ten seconds—ten whole seconds of complete and utter shock. When he finally pulled away, I could barely breathe.

"Is that enough proof?" Denver asked with a smug smirk.

Matilda stood speechless, her face twisted in disbelief before she stomped away in frustration. A chorus of gasps and giggles erupted from the crowd that had witnessed everything. And there I was—frozen, weak in the knees, wondering what in the world just happened.

"Ay nako Sienna, why didn’t you tell us you’re married?” Ate Chariz teased as she approached us. “Introduce your handsome husband naman!”

She reached for the items I bought earlier, but Denver beat me to it and took them from her hands.

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 53: When Fate Steals the Spotlight

    After the bouquet toss, I still couldn’t believe what had just happened. People kept congratulating me, laughing, asking for pictures—as if I were the new bride. But honestly, my mind was only focused on one person.Denver.Ever since I caught the bouquet, he hadn’t stopped smiling. He stood quietly in one corner, composed yet undeniably noticeable. His eyes were saying it loud and clear: “Told you so.”My thoughts were interrupted by the host’s voice echoing again.“And now, gentlemen! It’s time for the garter toss! Please come to the front!”My eyes immediately found Denver.He was walking toward the center—calm, unhurried, but impossible to ignore. Tall, confident, dressed in a black suit that made him look like he just stepped out of a magazine cover.Other men followed—celebrity guests, groomsmen, model-looking types. But Denver? Why was he even joining? I mean… we’re already married.“Alright! Are you ready?” the host called out.The men cheered.The groom, Min-ji, knelt before

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 52: The Aisle That Changed Everything

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★It felt like I was in a movie.My hands were slightly trembling, and my heart was beating faster than it should. Today was Hana’s wedding—Hana, one of the people I admired most—and I couldn’t believe I was actually here to witness it all. To be part of it.The entire venue was buzzing with motion. Florists running around to adjust the bride’s bouquet. A coordinator barking instructions through a headset. Assistants pacing with water bottles, safety pins, and tissue rolls. One man even ran back to the van because the flower girl’s shoes were left behind.But me? I was sitting quietly in a corner of the hallway, hugging myself. Trying to tame the chaos inside me.“Breathe, Sienna,” I whispered, staring down at the white fabric of my gown. “You’re not the bride. So why does it feel like you’re about to faint?”Before I could talk myself down further, a Korean coordinator with a clipboard approached.“Miss Sienna,” she called out politely. “Your position is right after Mi

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 51: No More Contracts, Just Us

    ★ Denver’s POV ★This time… it feels real. And I never want to lose this feeling.The ride back to the condo was quiet, but not the awkward kind of silence we used to share. This one felt different—soft, warm, light. Like our hearts were still glowing from everything that just happened. Sienna sat beside me with her eyes closed, but the smile on her lips hadn’t faded since she said “yes.”I couldn’t stop glancing at her while driving. It still hadn’t sunk in completely—she agreed. She said yes. She wanted this marriage to be real, just like I did.“You look like you’re smiling too much,” she suddenly said, still with her eyes closed but her voice calm and amused.“More than you’ll ever know,” I replied.She didn’t say anything after that. Instead, her grip on my hand tightened—and that was more than enough for me.—When we got back to the condo, we didn’t waste time. We were both exhausted, but there was something different in the air—something light and full of unspoken joy. We chan

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 50: A Love Without Terms

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★After our chaotic but fun time at the arcade, Denver and I headed straight to the food court. The place was buzzing—colorful stalls everywhere, voices overlapping, the scent of grilled meats and spicy sauces filling the air. My eyes darted between all the options, overwhelmed by the choices. But Denver, as usual, looked completely unfazed.“Let’s go here… you’re trying tteokbokki,” he said with a smirk, gently guiding me toward a particular stall.“Tteokbokki? Is that… good?” I asked hesitantly, trailing behind him.“If you don’t try, you’ll never know,” he replied with that boyish grin I was slowly starting to fall for.When we reached the stall, he spoke to the vendor in Korean, “Tteokbokki du gae juseyo.” I didn’t understand a word, but I admired how smoothly he said it.Then he turned to me. “You’re going to love it.”A smile tugged at my lips. It was so strange, seeing him this way—so relaxed and playful. At the office, Denver was this unapproachable, intimidatin

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 49: A Day of Us in Seoul

    ★ Sienna’s POV ★I sat quietly in the passenger seat as the car cruised smoothly through the cold and orderly streets of Seoul. My eyes stayed fixed on the view outside—soft blankets of snow on the sidewalks, bundled-up people crossing intersections, and glowing Christmas lights hanging from every post. Everything looked beautiful, magical even. But no matter how lovely the scenery was, I couldn’t shake the strange mix of emotions swirling in my chest.Excitement. Nervousness. Butterflies."You okay?" Denver asked, glancing at me briefly before turning his eyes back on the road."O-oo. Ayos lang," I replied quickly, avoiding his gaze. I had no idea where he was planning to take me, but deep inside, I was genuinely happy he was making the effort."We’ll go to Starfield COEX first. It’s one of the biggest malls here," he said. "I want to show you around. Maybe get you something warm.""Hindi mo naman kailangang gumastos," I replied with a frown."I want to. Besides, I want to make up fo

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)    Chapter 48: Soft Mornings and Unspoken Apologies

    ★ Denver’s POV ★I kept my hand steady on the console, just a few inches from hers. I didn’t touch her, didn’t want to force it. I was hoping—praying—that she’d meet me halfway.But she didn’t.Her hand stayed where it was. Still. Cold. She didn’t pull away, but she didn’t look at me either. She didn’t move, didn’t flinch. As if no matter what I did, I couldn’t reach her—not tonight. And that crushed me in ways I wasn’t ready to admit.“Sienna,” I said softly, eyes focused on the road ahead as we rolled into the night. “I don’t want to keep failing you.”She didn’t respond. But I could feel the weight in the air between us. Her shoulders were stiff, and her hands were balled loosely in her lap. She was holding herself back. Again.“If I had known it’d be like this…” she whispered, just loud enough for me to hear, “I wouldn’t have come. I thought I’d have your attention tonight. I thought I mattered.”I swallowed hard. Her voice didn’t need to rise to strike me where it hurt. Every wor
