CHYNA
“You are too stubborn. Why did you keep coming inside without a guide?”
I stopped stepping inside the EMG's entrance. I was startled to see Gian when I turned back. He was smiling while looking at me.
And once again, my heart flew away from its ribcage to meet him. I wanted to run towards him, throw myself to him and hugged him tightly. But I can’t. I’ll just embarrass myself if I do that.
I have enough.
Enough to lay down my armour.
It’s just what I need. Confirming that I don’t have anything that would make him want me anymore.
But though I accepted my fate, my heart won’t stop loving him still.
No way it would.
Always and secretly, I will still love Gian.
Maybe, until forever.
“When is your boyfriend coming back? He should not leave you here. Lots of men here would love to be with you.&rdq
CHYNAI tried to pass over him, but he didn’t let me take another step.“Don’t you hear me? I love you, Chyna. And I know you still love me too. Don’t dare deny it because I know it! I can feel it! You won’t let me kiss you if you don’t have any feelings left for me, baby.”I harshly took my arm away from him. But Gian didn’t let go.“What the hell, Gian?! Do you hear yourself? We are both committed. And now, you’re telling me that you love me. You love me, and you love Camille as well. Three in a relationship is too crowded; you only need one, Gian. And one more thing…” I stopped and took a quick breath. My tears started to roll down my face. “Just because I still love you doesn’t mean I would let you play with my feelings. Don’t use it as a license to hurt me over and over again!”Gian let go of my arm, but he suddenly cupped my
CHYNAGian went stunned. I let go of him and smiled so lovingly. I reached for his handsome face and gently caressed it.It was such an enchanting moment for us. I didn’t anticipate it will happen to me.“Rizzi, just stitch some lies to drive you away. Luckily, Flynn was willing to play along. He was not a doctor. He is a head nurse in the biggest hospital in the capital.”“But how did you know, Flynn?” Gian seems not convinced yet.“Here in EMG. That very day my nose bleeds non-stop. He was the one to catch me.”Gian winced. I wasn’t sure if he was grateful or dismayed.“That should be me!”He even made a ‘tsk’ sound. I laughed at his reaction.“Well, it was fine that he caught you while I am not present in the scene. But from now on, I promise to be with you forever. I'll be with you and accompany you wherever you wa
CHYNA:“It looks like this place has changed a lot since I was here last, Dasha.”I took my shades off and looked around as we approached the Mon Refuge Restaurant. We came here for a snack.“What did you expect? Costa Galaxia should improve and not the other way around,” my elder sister said with a shrug as we entered the newly-opened restaurant.We went straight to the third floor. Dasha took a seat near the wall panel. I followed her. A big binocular was placed nearby, free for everyone to view the sceneries outside.I saw a ball car in Saturn Cove, entering the forest trail. I squinted as my gaze followed the ball car.“Gosh! Do I see things, or is it really a ball car?”Before Dasha could answer, I hurried to the binocular. I got excited, looking around the whole place.Through the binocular, I spotted another object heading towards Neptune Cove. I gasped whe
“So…” Dasha’s attention focused back on me. “It is still a month before my wedding, and I guess you took a vacation leave earlier than you should?”“I've already told you, sis, I want a long vacation this time.”I looked away and fixed my gaze through the glass panel of Mon Refuge. The weather was sunny outside. In the corner of my eye, I could see my sister staring at me with critical eyes. I ignored her, pretending to be busy passers-by. I was aware that Dasha was analyzing me, trying to see through me, but I would keep mum for as long as possible. She would surely nag me if she found out my real purpose in coming here.Gian Voltaire.As soon as the name popped in my head, everything related to the man automatically came like a flash flood.The man was damned gorgeous, and he knew it. He was a real flirt. He had such dangerous charisma that I could not help myself getting affected
GIAN“IS that Chyna? Doctor Salvatore’s younger sister?”I suddenly stopped warming up for our water polo game when I heard that name.Chyna. And Dr. Dasha Salvatore, Costa Galaxia's in-house physician who was always trying to slaughter me. Whenever I got sick, the good doctor would always make me wait to give me a hard time before I got treated.But I couldn’t blame Dasha. She had the right to be mad at me. I had dumped her sister. I had been stupid to do so and had felt bad about it for so long.“Yes! That's her! She's even much prettier now! What a stunning beauty.” Thug elbowed Josh. “Bro, when did she arrive?”“Just yesterday. Doc Dasha said Chyna is here for a long vacation. She will be staying around until after Castillo’s wedding.” Josh answered.Josh was probably the head of the security team here in Cos
GIAN:Aelax and the rest of my teammates pulled me back to the pool.“I will break his bone. This brute was acting arrogant as he always was.” Zedrei grinned and locked my neck once we were all in the water.I couldn’t blame them. I had done another foolish thing to Chyna just now. Well, it couldn't be helped. I had snapped at seeing another man touch Chyna. Perhaps I had no right to feel that way and what I had done to her was totally uncalled for, but I didn't care anymore. I no longer had control over myself. Just being that close to Chyna stirred me to distraction. I was exploding into flames.And those sweet lips... I would be a hypocrite if I claimed I hadn't meant to kiss them. Frustration wormed through me as I kissed her with great passion.I totally lost it when the memories of all those passionate times we'd shared together came painfully back. Those memories rendered me lonely all those yea
The whole flashback…ChynaI was furious while walking at the vast field towards the Enchanted Walled Garden. And what made me feel that way is no other than Gian Voltaire. The guy that Dasha warned me not to mess with.Ah! That guy! Didn't he know that it was rude to ogle? Am I a specimen for him to study?But then, luckily,, I saw an image from a distance. It just made my annoyance fade away instantly. Smiling wide, I walked towards the handsome guy. He was alone in the wooden bench scattered around the place. He seems busy browsing in his iPhone that he doesn't even notice me approaching.“Hi!” Smiling sweetly and seductively, I tried to get his attention.“Chy…” He seems not surprised to see me here. I got confused.“Don't you want to ask why am I here, Lenox?”I sit beside him even though he was not inviting me to join him.
Chyna “I am not hugging you. I just fix your position. Instead of complaining, why can't you be grateful instead—?” Gian wasn't able to finish his words because I suddenly hit him on the chest. I refused to get embarrassed anymore. This guy was making such a horrid alibi. “Ouch!” he complained. Don't he ever push his luck? He can't get away from me. I am not a gullible kind of woman. “You deserve it!” But then, Gian suddenly smiled. Nah, this guy must be a lunatic. I had hit him, right? Why would he smile like that? He was just making my blood boil, so I must leave him. I stood up and decided to walk away when I felt him following me. “Where are you going? Are you tailing me?” I snapped again. “Don’t you think you are too assuming? Just because you are beautiful doesn’t mean I'll tail you. Do you think it's my first time to see a goddess?” I don't know if I should be flattered or I
