Liliana's Point of ViewI was somewhere, running, when my eyes fell upon two people ahead of me—a man and a woman, probably in their thirties.I watched as the man, whose face I couldn't quite make out, knelt down, and so did the woman.“Let’s go, Princess?” he asked me. I walked towards him and took his hand.“Okay, Daddy.”The woman also approached and took my other hand.“Are you excited to see your brother?”My brow furrowed at the woman's words, but instead of questioning it, I just nodded.“Baby Sister!”I looked ahead and saw a young boy’s smiling face looking at me. I immediately ran to him.Then, I remembered that my parents were with me. I looked back to where they had been standing, and my eyes widened—they were gone. I looked beside me, and the one who called me “Baby Sister” was also gone.“Who was that?”“Wife?”My eyes shot open. I immediately looked at the person waking me up and let out a sigh. I looked ahead, my brow furrowed as I realized I’d forgotten what I had ju
Liliana’s Point of ViewI stretched after finishing my review of all the submitted work. I immediately forwarded the final output to Bart when suddenly, a ping from my inbox caught my attention. It was an email—from Bart."Take care and make lots of babies, Bakla!"That was what his message said. I couldn’t help but laugh at his ridiculous chat.“This Barbie’s really insane,” I muttered, shaking my head.Just then, a knock on the door interrupted me. I turned and saw Asher holding a plate—he had brought me some snacks.A smile spread across my face as he gently placed the food on the table.“This is for you, wife.”“Thank you,” I said softly.He sat down beside me, and when I looked at him, I noticed he was already watching me.“What?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.“I love watching you.”“Pfft, what nonsense are you saying now?”“I earned some points today, so I’m in a good mood,” he grinned.“Just today? You’re always smiling whenever you see my face.”He smiled again—and it was the k
Liliana’s Point of View“H-Huh?”In an instant, she felt his arms pull her body toward him. She chose to ignore the growing hardness pressed against her stomach.“Hubby, I’m still tired from what happened between us last night… I’m still sore.”“Don’t worry, I’ll be the one to move this time. You just stay still, okay?”Oh no, he really was unstoppable! She quickly placed her hands on his face to stop him from kissing her lips.“Hey! Hold on a second!”He paused and looked her straight in the eyes.“Hmm? What is it? Do you regret what happened? Was my performance not enough? Just tell me, I’ll take lessons if I have to.”“Eh? No! That’s not it. What happened last night only happened because of the beer you drank… nothing more. I was tipsy too. You know I get drunk easily—not like you who can hold your alcohol longer.”She saw his expression fall at her explanation, and her chest tightened in guilt.“Did I force myself on you, wife? I’m sorry. I won’t let it happen again.”He looked do

Two men in their fifties arrived at the airport, accompanied by the elder man’s son and a group of bodyguards assigned to protect them from any enemies. The older of the two men removed his sunglasses, scanning the surroundings with a sharp eye, while his son followed suit."I didn't know the Philippines could be this hot," Mateo muttered, frowning at the intense humidity. He glanced at his son, Theo, who was also taking off his sunglasses.What Theo didn’t say—what he wouldn’t dare confess to his father—was that he was excited, incredibly so. He hoped to see the woman he had once met by chance, the one who hadn’t left his thoughts since that accidental encounter. His father had no idea."I don't care. As long as I get to see my future fiancée, I don’t care about the heat. I just need to beat that guy and win her over," Theo said with conviction.Mateo gave a proud smile. "That’s my son. But are you absolutely sure you haven’t seen their daughter before?"Theo quickly shook his head.
Third Person Point of ViewBefore Asher called Liliana in this scene, he was occupied with work.He was deeply engrossed in his tasks when his work phone rang. At first, he ignored it, thinking it was one of those annoying investors trying to pester him again. But curiosity got the better of him—what if it was his wife calling? So, he checked. His brows furrowed when he saw that the call was coming from an unregistered number on the phone that only his wife had access to.He had two phones for work, but one of them was exclusively for his wife.Yet someone was calling on that exclusive number.He answered it.“Young man, what took you so long to pick up?”He froze at the sound of the voice—it was Liliana’s grandfather.“Sire, how did you get my number?” Asher asked in shock.“Liliana gave it to me. I have something to tell you. And please, protect her.”Asher’s chest tightened at the old man's words.“Who’s trying to hurt my wife?”“Just protect her. We’re not yet certain when they’ll
