Samantha’s Point of View

“Tonight, we don’t just celebrate the years—because those are merely numbers. We celebrate a love that stayed, that grew, and endured,” the emcee announced, signaling that Walter’s parents were about to be introduced. He has said a lot of things earlier; I honestly thought we’d be waiting for another hour before the night officially start. “Their hearts still choose each other, just like they did on day one. So with all our love, let’s welcome Mr. Wilver Robles and Mrs. Klarisse Robles as they take the floor for their anniversary dance, followed by the exchange of their vows.”

We all stood and applauded as Walter’s parents stepped out from the arch. His mom’s arm was looped through his dad’s, just like Walter and I earlier. She held a bouquet of red roses, too. A moment later, the intro of “Can't Help Falling In Love” by Elvis Presley filled the entire venue.

His mom wore a long red mermaid dress that wrapped beautifully around her slim figure. It had sheer sl

  • The CEO's Accidental Contracted Love   Chapter 15: Home, It Is (Samantha)

    Samantha’s Point of View“Erwin!” I shouted the moment the tricycle I was riding stopped in front of our house. “Erwin, get out here and help me!”I stepped down carefully, trying not to drop or topple any of the groceries I was carrying.“Excuse me . . . can you help me instead? If we wait for my brother, it’ll be dark before anything gets done,” I said as I approached the driver. “Don’t worry, I’ll add an extra amount to the fare.”He immediately climbed down from his seat. I grabbed the two kilos of milkfish, plus a kilo each of pork and chicken. Even though I could feel my fingers begging for mercy, I still took the bundle of snow cabbage. Meanwhile, the driver hoisted the sack of rice onto his shoulder.We hadn’t even walked far from the tricycle when my father met us at the doorway. It always hurts to see the patch on his neck. I can’t look at him without feeling a sting in my chest. It seems like every session makes him thinner. He’s lost so much weight already.“Samantha, what

  • The CEO's Accidental Contracted Love   Chapter 14: The Day IV (Samantha)

    Samantha’s Point of ViewI can only hope that I made the right decision agreeing to Walter’s new offer. It was hard to refuse, honestly. My brother’s education—free. My father’s dialysis—covered.“So, how did you and Walter meet?”Mrs. Robles’ voice snapped me back to reality. We were on the elevated circular platform with two other women, waiting for the host to gather enough participants for the bouquet toss.I gave her a small smile before answering. “At the company. I’m . . . I’m his secretary.”Her hand slid lightly across my back and stopped on my waist. “Why do you sound hesitant? There’s nothing wrong with being a secretary, dear.”“Thank you, Mrs.—”“Mommy. Call me Mommy,” she insisted. “And please find time to visit our home next week. I want to talk to you and so we can bond. My husband and I will be very busy in the coming days.”My first impression of her was right. She really is kind. Maybe Walter got his father's attitude. Though his dad seems kind, too. So maybe Walter

    Walter’s Point of ViewWhile everyone was busy eating, I took the chance to talk to my parents. Samantha stayed at our table, eating as well. What happened earlier wasn’t part of the plan—it just popped into my head. But I know it’s going to cost me. Even though this is a private event, some of the guests here work at my company—like Conrad. I’m sure their minds are spinning with assumptions right now. But it should be the least of my concerns. I just need to get through tonight.“Mom,” I called out as I climbed up to them, taking the stairs at the far end of the elevated rectangular stage. They were halfway through their food.Mom immediately stood. We didn’t get the chance to talk after that stunt Samantha and I pulled. And I know she’s been dying to corner me.“My son,” she said warmly as she kissed my cheek. I moved to my dad to give him a hug.“Where’s your girlfriend? We’d like to see her,” Dad said, excitement written all over his eyes and a wide smile.Mom took my hand. “I pra

    Samantha’s Point of ViewI tightened my grip around Walter’s arm the moment we stepped into the venue. A long red carpet stretched before us, lined with a mix of red, pink, and white roses on both sides—though the red ones clearly dominated. Between each basket of flowers stood a candle enclosed in a glass jar. Paired with the instrumental music filling the room and setting a romantic mood, it felt like we were walking down the aisle at our own wedding. If Walter had asked me right here to pretend as his fake girlfriend, I would’ve answered “I do” even without payment.I subtly looked around. On both sides were tables and chairs, some already occupied by guests. A few of them didn’t hold back with their outfits—glamorous, bold, and expensive-looking. Others simply wore a red dress and called it a day. Not that they really needed to dress up extravagantly; their faces alone screamed luxury.“Let them stare,” Walter murmured softly. With the amount of eyes on us, each with a different r

    Walter's Point of View“Perfect!” my wardrobe assistant exclaimed after fixing the way my coat sat on my shoulders.I immediately turned away from him and faced the mirror. Truth be told, I didn’t just wear the suit—I became everything its color represented: powerful, confident, unapologetic. But deep inside, I was anxious.I studied myself in the mirror. The burgundy vest and the black fabric underneath looked like they were stitched solely for me, hugging every part of me that needed hugging. Every black button on the vest was fastened like it belonged exactly there. And the burgundy coat? The very definition of perfect. Maybe Sid actually had some use after all, he was the one who helped me choose this suit.My hair was slicked back, my stubble was clean and intentional. I smirked as I tilted my head slightly. People were right. I was handsome.“How about Samantha? Is she done?” I asked the assistant behind me. I could practically see hearts forming in his eyes in the reflection as
