Rules of A Forbidden Romance CHAPTER 39: THE LAST KISS
ISLAONE YEAR LATER"Isla, new customer at table 10.""Yeah sure."I brought with me the metal pitcher of water, a glass, and the menu as I approached the customer on the said table. It was a young man and he was wearing a black jacket and black cap, his head turned down and he was in the middle of playing something between his fingers, the reason he didn't even raise his head up."Here's the menu. I'll be taking up your order, sir."I gave him the small menu of the coffeeshop and he took it without even raising his head. He seemed like he was uninterested in looking at me.And because I am just a waitress, I didn't mind it. I placed the small glass on the table and poured some water on it and waited half a minute until the man pointed out the cappuccino from the menu."This," he said."Alright. Your order will be up for three minutes."I picked up the menu and walked away from him to start preparing his order."Wow, Isla. Your Korean is improving," the manager praised me.I smiled at
Rules of A Forbidden Romance CHAPTER 1: LOST & FOUND
ISLA “Have the will to let go of the life planned from the past and prepare for the life that is waiting in the future…” INCHEON, REPUBLIC OF SOUTH KOREA5:30 P.M. I took my luggage together with my travel bag from the baggage-claim area at the arrivals level before continuing to walk. I looked at my phone to see the time and I still had an hour and a half left before I could reach downtown Seoul. And without further ado, I quickly walked out of the Incheon International Airport. The day before my arrival, I was told by my mom that I might need to ride a taxi going to this hotel in Seoul. But, you must be wondering why I arrived alone in this country? It’s because my mom was engaged to a South Korean businessman, Mr. Woo-jin Lee. He’s not just a plain and simple businessman. He is the founder of the famous Seoul Arts and Design Institute – a university focusing on art courses. He is also the owner of Grand Publishing, the company reserved f

ISLA“The purpose of our activities on earth must go beyond bread and butter or merely surviving.…”ONE YEAR AGOMy mom and I were in the living room of our home. And I couldn't help but wonder why she suddenly brought a man who is not just any ordinary man. I was sitting across from him while my mom was sitting right next to me on the sofa. We were all silently observing one another."Isla, baby…" I heard my mom speak to me so I looked at her. She looked so serious right now. "This is Mr. Woo-jin Lee. He's my boss from the Philippines branch of the company called Grand Publishing."I know that company. I mean, they produce both online pay-to-read novels and traditional published novels under the name of Grand Books. They're everywhere and very famous amongst teenagers.I looked at the man as he started talking to me in courtesy. "It's nice to finally meet you, Isla. Forgive me for suddenly coming here to your home.

ISLA"I am a chaotic angel and you are a peaceful devil…"ONE MONTH AGOI've been really distracted lately with my studies after I finally agreed to come to my mom's wedding next month. I didn't dislike the idea of coming to South Korea just to attend her wedding, but she even told me to think about transferring there to continue studying my course."You can continue studying your chosen course in SADI," she said."SADI?" I asked cluelessly. "Are you talking about the top-ranked international university in Seoul?""Yes. If you attend there, your future will surely be secured," she continued. "Think about it."I turned around to look at her while I'm still sitting on the office chair. "I'm pretty sure that you know how much their tuition fee is…"My mom remained silent while staring at me. Is she being serious?"SADI's tuition fee for international students costs about $4,500 which is almost 240,000 in Philippine peso. I don't think we can aff
Rules of A Forbidden Romance CHAPTER 4: CAT & DOG
ISLAA very loud and irritating sound woke me up the next morning as early as seven. It was so distracting that I can no longer go back to sleep. So, even if I'm half awake, I stepped out of my room and just like a spy, I traced where that freakin’ sound came from. And when I finally discerned the bedroom, I madly approached it before knocking loudly on the door."CAN YOU TURN YOUR ALARM OFF?! IT SOUNDS LIKE A DYING CAT!!!"I can't believe I yelled at the top of my lungs and even though I did, nothing has changed. The alarm was still ringing and it was seriously irritating me, so I continued banging the door until it suddenly opened and I accidentally smacked someone’s face.That’s when I realized it was Eun-woo. Now, I know that the room opposite of mine was his.He grunted in pain as he covered his face in surprise. I got shocked by what happened as well and couldn't help but panic while I was watching him easing the pain. At the same t

She was so brave for forgiving my father which I cannot accept even now."Mr. Lee Eun-woo…" I got back to my senses after hearing my name being called, and then I looked at the head director, Mr. Han.

EUN-WOO"Having siblings is like experiencing both heaven and hell together…"When all the guests who knew my father and even the staff that works for him gathered at the function hall, I remained in the hotel's lobby throughout the wedding ceremony. I'm not in the mood to talk or entertain his guests, so I'll just let Soo-jin or Ji-hoon do that instead.The ceremony ended for almost an hour and I knew about it because Soo-jin called me, telling me that I should at least pay my respect to the newlyweds.So troublesome…I was guided by the staff to where I am supposed to go to see the newlywed. Before I could even show myself to them, I overheard their conversation with Imogen's daughter."Ji-hoon will be your stepbrother.
