Diane’s P.O.V.
We had finished our lunch, and soon after, Liam bade goodbye. “Thank you so much, ma’am. I couldn’t agree more with what Diane told me earlier—your chicken adobo was truly delicious, I’m afraid that I’ll forget my name. If I don’t have to go to the office today, I’ll even stay and eat my dinner here. But maybe next time, I’ll go ahead for now.” Liam’s dimple was showing again when he talked to Mom.
“All right, Hijo. You’re always welcome here. Drive safely,” Mom smiled while reminding him.
I gasped, as my siblings were even surprised when Liam showed Mom an honoring gesture. He gently lifted her hand, bowed towards it, and pressed his forehead as a sign of respect. And when he did that, it was as if my heart melted again. But no, just melted was an understatement. Liam suddenly stole my heart, and I d

Leandro’s P.O.V.God! Does Diane really feel that I was choking her? Does she really feel that I was too obsessed with controlling her? Am I really suffocating her?Why? Was it a bad thing that I just loved her? That I couldn’t stop showing my real feelings for her? Was it awful that I wanted to protect her?Was it wrong to demand that I must be the only one to stay by her side, and no one else should matter to her?Nothing was wrong with how I used to express my love for her because it was only me who had the right to own her!Impatiently massaging my left temple while drinking my limited edition of French champagne, I was walking back and forth here in the living room of our mansion as my mood swelled with anger. Suddenly, something was knotting inside my chest that made me hard to breathe. I never relied on my instinct, but it w

Leandro’s P.O.V.I was hoping that Diane got home safely, and nothing bad had ever happened to her last night. For two years, I was only following her like a shadow. I ditched my work several times already just to make sure she would reach home completely safe. Maybe, it was about time for me to meet her family. I would also apologize to her brother if I scared him.Due to my adrenaline rush, I hurried out of the mansion and quickly got inside my car. It looked like I almost flew my car when I pressed its gas pedal, and the speed of one hundred twenty kilometers per hour was still not enough. I continued speeding up, and I didn’t care at all if I would beat the red light or cause any road collision.They should be the ones to avoid me if they didn’t want to be bumped over. “No one would even dare to mess with Leandro.” I scoffed.The world only revolved

Diane’s P.O.V.“Clariz, you are not going to dance for now. Shiela was absent today, so you will be the one to take her place instead as Aunt Lucy previously instructed,” Martina said while applying her contour makeup. We were currently in the dressing room, and I was wearing my mask.“Hmm, is that so? Okay, thanks for informing me then,” I replied without even looking at her.We were sharing one vast rectangular mirror with sparkling LED lights, so I could still feel that she was somehow glancing at me. In fairness, her tone was not a bit harsh as how she used to speak when talking to me. We were surrounded by scattered sets of different makeup and brushes, as well as glittering shoes and dresses.Shiela had to be the famous singer in the club, and she used to perform before my every dance number. She was also a part-time student, and we had the s

Diane’s P.O.V.“Huh? W-What do you mean?” I furrowed my forehead while asking. Suddenly, Martina killed me with her suspense acting.“It was Leandro,” Martina confessed audaciously.“What?” I couldn’t help but raised my voice. I didn’t expect them to have an intimate past together, that her revelation made me cover my mouth after being slack-jawed. “Oh my God! Really?” I couldn’t see my whole reaction right now because of my mask, but it looked like my face blanched.“Oh, don’t get me wrong! I never liked him even once, so you can have him all by yourself if you want. I just did what I had to do before to take my revenge on my ex-girlfriend who cheated on me. Leandro couldn’t even remember that we shared a bed anyway. In fact, he was only focused on you that he couldn’t even lay his eyes o
Sins of The Past 033 | I Love You, Mi Amor
Diane’s P.O.V.It was Liam who was handsomely wearing a long-sleeved blue polo, that was tucked in his black slacks. He was clean-shaven, and his dimple was truly spectacular, despite our distance. His thick black hair was still unruly and was tousled into a medium textured haircut. I blinked my eyes a few times but while I was doing it, I was afraid that he would soon disappear over that area.Was it really him or my illusion was only playing with me?After a while, I could not help myself to be elated as I widely smiled while singing. My heart melted again, and imaginary butterflies twirled inside my belly.It was Liam, and I wasn’t only delusional.I felt like something in me literally jumped, and my heartbeats hastened as if there had been thousands of horses running inside my chest. He waved his right hand on me as his impressiv

Diane’s P.O.V.“We’re going out. I just came from a whole day of work, and I haven’t eaten yet my dinner,” he said with a magnificent smile. His deep dimple showed again, starting to melt me when I couldn’t even glance away. His tone sounded a little bit commanding, but it wasn’t throttling.Jeez, I’m so excited to be with him!Although Liam just declared it without even asking me if I would be willing to go and have some dinner with him, I still couldn’t contain this exhilarating feeling. My feet abruptly felt like barely touching the ground, and I guessed that it would not even take long for me to surely faint here.“Oh, sure thing! I’ll just need a minute to change my clothes. Anyway, take care of these for now. I’ll be right back, promise!” I responded hastily while handing him the red roses.

Diane’s P.O.V.“You are special to me, Diane… and for you, I will do anything even if it means doing the impossible,” he told me while holding my hand again as he made sure to occupy the space in between my fingers hard enough. It was the kind of hold that he never wanted to let my hand away from his clutch. I kept on smiling while silently talking to my heart.Be still, my heart. I knew how much you had fallen for Liam, but please calm down!In just a few steps, we already reached the reserved table for the two of us. Actually, I found it redundant. The whole restaurant was already reserved, then how come the table ended up being reserved too?Eventually, I just let it slipped away from my thoughts. It was good that he brought me to a Filipino restaurant because I didn’t feel like eating over some foreign and fine-dining restaurants.&n

Diane’s P.O.V.That made me blush and choke my food. Liam was respondent enough to give me some water before standing and approaching me. He then gently rubbed his palm on my back to stop me from coughing. It took me a while before I cleared my throat. It was my last spoon of blueberry cheesecake, and it was a good thing that I didn’t barf my food.“Are you alright now?” he worriedly asked me.I just nodded before my eyes gazed at him intently, almost raking his whole body.Why would he tell me such a thing?My heart was beating so fast again.“I’m sorry if I made you feel uneasy, Diane. I might have expressed my feelings over a pick-up line, but I just want you to know that I wasn’t kidding. I like you, and that’s the truth,” Liam said casually.“Hmm, o-kay. I&md
