NICA bit her lower lip to stop her lips from trembling when she opened it but her voice did not come out. She is not used to being praised and admired by people.
"Before, I don't believe in love at first sight," Chris stated when he was in front of Nica.
"Owh!" everyone screamed simultaneously and they were excited.
Bheng covered her own mouth with her hands to keep herself from screaming in thrill.
Chris hemmed first to clear the blockage in his throat before continuing.
"You're hard to tame, so I'm sorry I planned this along with our parents. I don't know how to get close to your heart because I know you're afraid to trust. You're afraid to love and be loved because you don't want to be hurt."
The tears Nica has been suppressing dripped. Thankfully, Bheng was prepared and she handed her a tissue.
"Please let me make you feel the love that I've felt for a girl for the first time," Chris said and gets down on one knee in front of the
After a week from recovery, Alfonso was released from the hospital. His body has weakened, but he could still speak properly. He lets Nica and her husband make the decision for the company. He know when he woke up th

"Aunt, please, don't show yourself to Nica yet," Chris asked the woman. He was thankful that his wife was still inside and he saw her first."I'm the wife and she's just the daughter, so I have more right than her to be by Alfonso's side!" Margaret insisted on going inside Alfonso's room.

Her eyes were swollen from crying, but there was a fire of anger in there as she looks at Margaret."You call yourself my father's wife?"

She is seeing a different Nica and she looks like she would not lose to her this time."When you became a sugar mommy of that bastard Philip, did you think that you have a husband?" Nica continued taking out her contempt for he
