★Sienna’s Point of View★

I woke up slowly, my head pounding like it had been smashed against a wall. My body ached everywhere. What happened…? And then it hit me—I had been kidnapped.

There was a warm hand gently stroking mine. I blinked, my vision blurry. Someone was sitting beside me, head bowed low.

Was that… Denver?

I squinted to see more clearly.

“D-Denver?” I whispered weakly.

But it wasn’t him.

“Thank God, Sienna, my love—you’re awake,” said a voice I hadn’t heard in a while.

My heart sank.

What the hell is Oliver doing here?

I looked around. I was in a hospital room. Of course. That explained the IV on my arm and the dull ache all over.

“What are you doing here?” I asked sharply, yanking my hand away from his grip.

“Sienna, my love, please don’t be like this. Why did you leave me? Don’t you love me anymore?” he asked, trying to hold my hand again.

I slapped his hand away with all the strength I had left.

“Love? After what you did? You cheated on me again, Oliver! Did you reall

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 11: A Taste of Home and Heart

    I helped Maria cook three dishes—Pakbet, Tinola, and Adobo—all of which, they told me, were Denver’s favorites. It was a bit nerve-wracking trying to help in a kitchen that wasn’t mine, but everyone was so kind and patient. We moved around like a well-oiled machine, chopping, stirring, tasting. I felt like I was part of the family, even if just for a while. The air was filled with the smell of garlic and ginger, and the comforting aroma of adobo simmering in soy sauce and vinegar.After we finished cooking, we carefully arranged the food on serving dishes and carried them to the dining table. Everything looked delicious, and I was honestly proud of what we had done together. Luisa was quick on her feet, efficiently setting the table with plates and silverware, her movements practiced and graceful. She placed the last spoon beside a bowl and nodded with satisfaction.Just then, Manang approached me, her expression calm and gentle. “Sienna, Master Denver said he’ll be home late tonight.

    “Ma’am Sienna, what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be resting? Please, go back to your room or Master Denver will be upset with us,” said Manang Lita, her voice tinged with genuine concern as she spotted me walking barefoot into the garden, hose in hand.“I’m already feeling much better,” I said, smiling as I adjusted the hose. “It’s just so boring in the room. There’s nothing to do there. Don’t worry, he won’t know about this,” I added, giving her a playful wink.As water flowed out of the hose, gently sprinkling over the bed of bright flowers, I heard Cara mutter from behind me, “Ma’am Sienna is really stubborn.” Her tone was teasing, and Manang chuckled softly beside her.Truthfully, I didn’t mind doing housework. I was used to it. Tasks like watering the garden or sweeping dried leaves were things I grew up doing. They were oddly comforting—routine, predictable. They gave my hands something to do, even if my mind still wandered. But even with the garden work, I couldn’t shake t

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 9: Lines Drawn

    “By the way, thanks for your help,” I said as I took another bite of food. “I'll do anything for you,” he replied, chewing his meal too.★Denver’s Point of View★ I meant what I said. I’ll do anything to protect her—even if she still hasn’t forgiven me for what I did to her brother. She may not say it outright, but I know the grudge is still there, hidden behind her soft eyes. Still, the more time I spend with her, the deeper I fall. Watching her eat, unaware of the chaos that still swirls outside this quiet room, makes me feel something I never thought I’d feel again—peace.But peace never lasts long in my world.A few moments later, my phone started ringing. I stepped out of Sienna’s room quietly so I wouldn't disturb her—it was Xandro.“Denver, bad news,” he said the second I answered. “What is it?” I asked, already bracing myself. “Your dad… he helped Lisha get out. He pulled strings with his friend, the Director General,” Xandro said.I clenched my jaw so tight I thought my te

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 7: Unfinished Business

    ★Denver’s Point of View★I ran toward where Sienna was, my heart pounding with panic and rage. Without hesitation, I punched the man standing on her right, sending him staggering back. The other guy immediately let go of her as I lunged forward. Sienna, weak and barely conscious, collapsed—but I caught her just in time.Xandro and the backup officers stormed in right after me, apprehending Lisha and the two men. Before they dragged them out of the room, I turned to Lisha and glared at her with all the fury I could muster."You'll pay for what you did to my wife," I said, my voice trembling with anger.“She deserved what I did,” Lisha spat back coldly, right before Xandro shoved her out the door with the others.I turned my attention back to Sienna. “Please, Sienna, wake up,” I whispered, cradling her in my arms. Without wasting a second, I rushed her to the car and ordered Manong to drive straight to the hospital.Her body was covered in bruises and cuts—too many to count. My stomach

  • Love Beyond Contact (English Version)   Chapter 6: A Dark Beginning

    ★Sienna’s Point of View★I woke up to the shocking sensation of cold water splashing across my face, jarring me from the blackness of unconsciousness. I gasped, but the sound was muffled—the sharp sting of tape stretched across my mouth kept me silent.“Hey! Wake up already! The boss wants to meet you,” a harsh voice barked. The man’s face was hidden behind a black ski mask, only his eyes visible. Did he seriously have to use ice-cold water? What happened to waking someone up with a shake or a shout?I groaned and tried to sit up, my limbs aching and stiff. My wrists and ankles were tied tightly with coarse rope. The floor beneath me was hard and damp, maybe concrete, and reeked of mold and rust. My head pounded, and my cheeks stung from lying sideways on the cold floor.“Get up! Don’t be so slow,” he snapped, his voice rising with irritation. I shot him a glare, struggling to lift myself upright. How did he expect me to get up when I was bound like a damn mummy? Was he stupid, or jus
