**Jheanne's POV**

I squeezed my eyes shut and prayed Hugo wouldn't go through with whatever he intended to do.

I didn't have the strength to fight him anymore, and it wouldn't have mattered if I did. He was stronger than me.

With my eyes shut tight, only one name came to mind.

Ubi.

And then someone yanked Hugo off me.

"You idiot!"

An enraged voice filled the whole room.

My eyes flew open as I searched for the owner of that voice.

"Ubi!" I screamed.

It felt like something lodged in my chest had

    **Hugo's POV**"Fuck it!" I snarled, clenching my fists. "I'll get back at them. I'll get ba-""Shut the fuck up, Hugo!" Jana screamed in my face.She pressed the alcohol-soaked cotton harder against the bruises I'd gotten from Jheanne's man.And she was crying while doing it.Damn it.I let out a harsh breath and turned my face away from her, looking instead toward the cottage door."What the hell were you even doing there, Hugo?" she demanded. "You told me you were just going to the hotel to get the vibrator. So why did you end up in their cottage? And don't you dare lie to me, because I saw you run out of there!"I sniffed and winced because she was pressing the cotton even harder now.Why did I have to run into her earlier? Now I actually had to come up with an explanation.This woman was a pain in my ass too. Always trailing after me. Annoying as hell."I already told you-the guy is jealous of me, that's why he beat me up! Don't you believe me?" I snapped.When she pressed the al

I screamed.It felt like something lodged in my chest had suddenly been ripped free when I saw him.He was my savior.My angel.He had one hand locked around Hugo's throat.He was furious.And from the look on his face, I didn't think he'd hesitate to snap Hugo's neck."She's mine!" Hugo shouted.Smoke practically came out of my ears at that.The shameless bastard had the nerve to say *she's mine* after abandoning me, cheating on me with my best friend, and almost assaulting me?"Break his face, Ubi!" I shouted in my rage.And then I instantly regrette

    **Jheanne's POV**I was lying on the shore, letting the water wash over my legs while I waited for Ubi to come out.He'd gone to change earlier because he didn't want to swim in the sea. Of course, I refused to swim alone, so I kept pestering him until he gave in.I lay there staring up at the sky, one arm tucked under my head like a pillow.The sun wasn't high yet-it was only six in the morning. That was one of the reasons Ubi had wanted to stay in bed instead of swimming.I smiled when I remembered the way he'd been pouting earlier."So cute," I murmured, still staring at the sky.And then, suddenly, the sky was replaced by Ubi's face.The whole world seemed to stop.My eyes locked onto his handsome features as he leaned over me upside down from my perspective. From where I lay, I could clearly see the shape of his face and the sharp line of his nose.I couldn't stop myself from biting my lower lip, especially when my eyes drifted over his muscular body.It felt like my mouth had go

    Chapter 10**Jheanne's POV**Ubi and I were staying at one of the luxury hotels in Mactan, Cebu.The truth was, Hugo and I were supposed to spend our honeymoon here. But since that obviously didn't happen, it felt like a waste to let all the money my parents had spent on the trip go to nothing.They had paid for everything and arranged it all.It was their gift to me because I'd wanted to visit this place for such a long time but had never had the chance because of work.So when Mom and Dad told me they were paying for my honeymoon vacation with Hugo at Shangri-La Hotel in Mactan, Cebu, I'd been overjoyed.Only now, Hugo wasn't the one here with me.My fake fiancé was.Ubi.As soon as we arrived and had our bags brought up to the room, I immediately asked Ubi to come eat with me at Cowrie Cove, the seafood restaurant inside the hotel.We were seated at a beautiful table for two, waiting for our food.While we waited, I poured wine into our glasses."So good," I murmured after taking a

  • My Beggar Fiancè (English Version)   Chapter 9

    Chapter 9 **Jheanne's POV** Mom Anne picked us up from my condo. She was the one Ubi had opened the door to earlier. Apparently, she thought something bad was happening because she rushed over right away. Well, something 'was' about to happen between me and Ubi if Mom hadn't shown up. Good thing she did. Otherwise, that kiss would've happened. My God. Speaking of him, I glanced at Ubi. He was sitting beside Dad, quietly eating. That was the thing about him. He was a beggar, but the way he carried himself was incredibly refined. I couldn't stop looking at him. I was enjoying the view far too much. "Hija, didn't you like what I cooked?" Mom asked. My eyes immediately shifted to her. "You won't get full just by staring like that, sweetheart," Dad added meaningfully. I bit my lower lip at his tone and felt both cheeks heat up because all three of them were looking at me now. I cleared my throat and flashed my brightest smile. I looked at Mom first. "The food is delicious

    Chapter 8**Jheanne's POV**I didn't know why, but the atmosphere felt weird now.Too quiet.Ever since Ubi and I came back from going out and found Hugo waiting outside my unit, things had been strange between us.Now we were both in my condo, not speaking.He was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and I was at the dining table staring into space.I had tried talking to him earlier, but he wouldn't answer. He had retreated into that private little world of his again, and I didn't want to bother him.Then my phone started ringing.It was in the living room, on the coffee table in front of him.I was about to go get it myself, but suddenly Ubi was standing in the doorway to the dining area, holding my phone.He handed it to me.I smiled as I took it."T-Thanks, Ubi..."Why was I stuttering?He didn't say a word.He simply turned around and went back to his seat.I sighed.What was his problem?Why had he suddenly become so cold?My attention shifted to the phone, which was still ringing.
