CHAPTER 10

–ALORA EUNICE’S POV–

"Aw..." I touched my forehead when I slightly hit myself against the closed window of his Mustang. I had been lightly banging my head against the window for a while now—

    –ALORA EUNICE’S POV–"Pianist Alora Eunice Escarra, who recently won a competition, is rumored to be the fiancée of a multi-billionaire bachelor, Rome De Herrera. Are they planning to get married soon?""What?!" I snatched Evan's phone from his hand and looked at the news. "Let me see... this can't be."I scrolled down and saw our photos yesterday. The moment I went inside his car before the little argument with Mr. Diaz. There is also a photo of us walking towards the entrance of DH Hotel. And the most intriguing is the moment Rome put his coat on my shoulders after he helped me escape my nightmare. I thought security here was tight, why did a paparazzo pass without their knowledge?

    –ALORA EUNICE’S POV–Evan's calling…"Excuse me," I put down my utensils, grabbed my phone, and stood up to walk away. "Evan."["Finally, you answered! I called you several times and you didn't answer even once, Alora."]"Sorry... I slept in." I replied. Based on the tone of his voice, I already knew that I gave him another worry.["I thought something happened again. Are you okay?"]"Still recovering," I leaned on the wall beside me while looking at the city lights outside.["Uncle Euren and Aunt Aleisha can't contact you so they called me. Geez. I don’t know what to answer, Alora!] He soun

    –ALORA EUNICE’S POV–"Rome… Help me."I unconsciously held onto him tightly, hugged him, and hid my face on his heaving chest. I felt his heart pounding hard and fast—like mine. I’m too frightened but that feeling slowly fades away because of the security I am feeling inside his embrace. It feels like I am safe when Rome is there."Ms. Escarra!" I heard that creepy voice again."Stay behind me," Rome caressed my head before I let go of him and went behind."Oh? De Herrera! You son of a—" Mr. Diaz was cut off."You f*cking *sshole!" Rome gave Mr. Diaz a hard blow on the face.

    –ALORA EUNICE’S POV–Fiancée?Before I could even process the word, he was already holding the door of his Porsche open for me. And just like that, I had no choice. I slid into the seat, wordless. From the side mirror, I watched him walk calmly around to the driver’s side.“Seatbelt,” he said firmly, settling into his seat.“W-What?” I looked at him, completely thrown off.He let out a quiet sigh. Without a word, he leaned over and reached for the seatbelt on my side.Instinctively, I leaned back into the seat, heart stammering from how close his face suddenly was to mine.

    –ALORA EUNICE’S POV–"Mr. De Herrera! Glad you came. Have a seat. Have a seat."What is he doing here?A flicker of nerves sparked in my chest the moment he stepped through the door and our eyes met. One of the servants pulled the chair beside me, and Rome De Herrera sat there like a king, while everyone's eyes were watching and waiting for him to settle in."Good day, everyone." He greeted, using his usual baritone voice."It's an honor to have you here, Mr. De Herrera," One of the gentlemen on the table started."Indeed. We didn't expect your sudden arrival. Glad you came despite your busy schedule." I perceived the sarcasm of the other gentleman.

Rome De Herrera is just standing in front of me.That's the point, he was standing in front of me and my heart raced like I am still in that piano competition where he congratulated me with a handsome, and attractive smile on his face. I shook my head and dusted off the thought.I noticed his eyes were full of worry, but suddenly changed when he saw me. It was dark and blank. I gulped and stepped aside to give way to Raña's side.
