last update Last Updated: 2025-07-28 15:17:48

Sophia's POV:

"What kind of a f*cking agreement did you just enter into, Yzabelle?" Bryan yelled at me as he banged his hands over my desk, we're inside of my office.

I sighed for the ninth times this morning since I started explaining to him the reason why I accepted Mrs. Kelley's proposal and why I agreed on marrying his son, but he kept on asking me why, when and how.

"I did it to protect myself."

"To protect yourself?" His head quickly turned in my direction. "Sophia, you know I've been here for you from the very beginning, right?"

"But I can't depend on you for the rest of my life, Bryan. I know someday when you find the woman for you, you will get married and leave me. So I have to learn to stand on my own feet."

"That's why you decided to marry a stranger? Do you think that would solve your problem?"

"Bryan---?"

"And what were you saying that I'm gonna leave you when I found the right woman for me?" He asked, walking towards my seat. "You know you're one of the reasons I star

  • Taming My Arrogant Husband    Chapter 24: I'm not jealous

    Sophia's POV:After lunch with Mr. and Mrs. Giovanni, we all went our separate ways. Daniel and I were back to being a 'normal' couple again, and when I say normal, I mean 'I don't care about you and mind your own business' motto. I didn't ask him or even talk to him about our kiss, as I didn't want to talk about it anymore. Well, maybe because I just didn't want to hear his insensitive comments. After saying goodbye to the couple, I turned to go back into the mall, but I didn't notice that he followed me. I was just shocked when he grabbed my arm inside the men's boutique. "What are you doing here?" I asked, barely a whisper. "I should be the one to ask you that question, sweetheart." He whispered as he pulled me closer to him. "What are you doing inside the men's boutique?" I gulped when his grip tightened. I raised an eyebrow when I noticed the hard glare he was giving me. "It's none of your business, sweetheart." I smiled, emphasizing the last word as I pushed him away, but

    Daniel's POV:I was about to press the intercom to call my secretary, when Andrew suddenly came rushing inside my office."Sir, we have unexpected visitors." He said, his words and breathing labored. "What do you mean unexpected ----" I didn't finish my question when the door opened and Mr. Norman Goivanni, our new European business partner came to our view. "Mr. Kelley." He said smiling widely at me. "Good morning, Mr. Giovanni." I stood up immediately to meet him halfway. "I'm sorry for the surprise visit, Mr. Kelley.""It's alright, Sir." I smiled as I took his hand. "Let's have a seat. What do you want for drinks, Sir, wine, whiskey ----""Oh, no, no, Mr. Kelley. Actually, I didn't come here today for business." My eyebrows scrunched a bit. "My wife and I would like to invite you and your wife for lunch today.""Ohh..." I wasn't expecting that invitation. "I see, but you should have just called me or informed my assistant, Sir, so you wouldn't have bothered coming here.""Well

    Daniel's POV:"F*ck! How dare you, woman!" I punched the water and screamed at her retreating back. I climbed up onto the edge of the pool, gritting my teeth as I wasn't expecting her to do that."Daniel, you're drenched, what happened to you?" asked by Tatay Berto when he saw me enter the living room. "Did you just swim fully clothed?""We saw Sophia in her swimsuit earlier, did you join her in the pool?" I took a deep breath and tried to smile at Nanay Emily's question. "But Sophia seemed happy when she passed by a few minutes ago. Did you two swim together?" Tatay Berto asked again. "No, she pushed me." I said scrunching my face. -'The nerve of that woman, I swear to give her a taste of her own medicine!'-"What did you mean she pushed you?" They asked me in unison. "My wife pushed me into the pool." I answered, balling my fists as I remembered how she left me drenched in the middle of the pool. I gained the same reaction from them as they laughed at me ironically."Why did s

    I sighed when I glanced at the closed door of his study room. I know he's inside but I have no plans on asking him why he didn't go to work today. "Meow.."A wide smile instantly crept on my lips when I saw Pussy in the living room. I walked towards her and lifted her in my arms. "Pussy, I'm going to swim do you want to join me in the pool?"I asked her, rubbing her head and she leaned on my touch. I climbed upstairs and brought her inside my room. I put her on top of my bed but she jumped and followed me inside the walk-in closet. "Hmm... you missed me so much, huh?" I smiled while getting my one-piece gray swimsuit inside the drawer. I also took a towel and a new bathrobe. After almost fifteen minutes of preparing my things, I took Pussy again with me and we exited my room. I saw Nanay Emily and Tatay Berto sitting on the wooden bench at the garden before I could reach the pool area. I'm sure Tatay Berto was cracking some jokes against her wife based on her laughs and the way s

    Sophia's POV:"Whoa! Am I seeing things, Mom?"I heard Rian ask her mother the moment we stepped out of the plane. "Is that Dani?"My head instantly followed her gaze and I had to blink twice to make sure if it's really Daniel and that I wasn't just played by my own eyes. But it's him, leaning on his black Bentley with both hands on his pockets, and together with Alex and Mom's driver, he's also waiting for us. "No, sweetie. It's really your brother.""But what is he doing here? Does he know about Belle's competition?""Yeah, he called me earlier to pick up his wife."I furrowed my eyebrows but I didn't react to their conversation. "Wow! This is getting more interesting, right Belle?" Rian nudged my elbow while we were walking towards the three cars. I just rolled my eyes and remained quiet as I don't want her to add her speech anymore. "Hi, son. How long have you been waiting for us?" Mom hugged him and he kissed her cheek. "Almost fifteen minutes, Mom. How's your flight?""Wel
