Jessica’s POV

I was in the middle of an investigation because I had discovered hidden finances and undeclared expenses in the company. I didn’t know what they were for or why they were so huge, when suddenly, my secretary knocked.

“Ma’am Laviste, Ma’am Andrea is asking for you in her office.”

“Did she say what it was about?”

“No, ma’am. She just said it’s urgent.”

I sighed before responding,

“Okay, tell her I’m coming.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

I organized the documents on my desk before heading to Andrea’s office. When I entered, I could tell she was having a bad day. She looked angry. So, when she insisted that I finish the budget, I didn’t make any promises because I knew there were still many things that needed to be reviewed and considered, especially since I had found discrepancies in the budget of other projects.

When she mentioned Nick, I stammered. But I didn’t want to lie to her. After that night at the beach, Nick brought me to his condo. I woke up and he was gone, he only left a no

    Jessica’s POV I noticed Nick had been staring at my painting for a long time. I painted that when I was a child. Behind our mansion, there used to be a large tree where you could see a beautiful view of the mountains. I would always go there whenever I felt sad, even at night, because the moonlight looked so beautiful from that spot.That tree was like a sibling to me. When I had no one to talk to, I would talk to the tree. I must have looked crazy back then. I even hugged that tree when I was happy. That’s why I cried so much when I found out they had cut it down while I was abroad studying.“Were you sad when you painted this?” Nick asked me.I smiled and nodded. I was surprised he could feel what I was feeling when I painted it.“At that time, my grandfather had just passed away, and I missed him terribly. Painting was the only thing that helped me cope. But sometimes George would visit me, he became like a big brother to me. He was the only one who showed me genuine concern.” Ni

    Andrea's POV I’m not in the mood today. I'm in my office, buried in a pile of documents. There are so many problems in the company. I don’t even know which one to deal with first. My head hurts. I’ve been stressed for days because of what happened at the party. I didn’t come to work for several days out of sheer embarrassment.I saw the door to my office open, and Dad came in looking angry again. He went straight to my desk and slammed a magazine down in front of me.“What kind of nonsense is this, Andrea?! You don’t want to marry Rich but you’re kissing this kind of guy?! And on the company’s anniversary, of all days! Do you even know this guy is known for being a womanizer and a total mess? Your standards are so low,... if you’re going to pick a guy, why choose someone so worthless?” Dad said angrily.I looked at the magazine and closed my eyes in shame when I saw the photo. Humiliating. I’m going to fire whoever wrote and published this and plastered my face on the front page. Dam

    Nick's POVI was reading a new project proposal when Dominic knocked and entered my office.“Sir, you have a visitor. He’s the son of your father’s former lawyer.”I frowned. “My father’s lawyer?”“His name is Atty. John Ramirez. He says he’s the son of Atty. Antonio Ramirez, one of your dad’s lawyers.”“I see. Do I have any meetings scheduled this morning?”“None this morning, sir. Your meetings start later in the afternoon.”“All right, let him in,” I instructed.“Yes, sir.”I stood from my desk and decided to wait for the lawyer on the sofa. When the door opened, a young lawyer stepped in. He looked to be in his early thirties.“Good morning, Mr. Ford. I’m Atty. John Ramirez.”“Good morning, Atty. Ramirez. Please, have a seat.”“What can I do for you, Attorney?”“I’m here on behalf of my father. He was one of your father’s attorneys and was entrusted to manage some of your father’s assets.”I frowned again. “As far as I know, Atty. Salvio was my dad’s lawyer?”“Yes, he was. But you

    Nick’s POV“Carly!” Jes called out, but it seemed she didn’t hear anything. She quickly rushed out of the restaurant.George frantically wiped his face when he saw Scarlett stand up and leave without even glancing back.“I have to go. Thanks for the meal,” said George. He quickly grabbed the coat hanging on Scarlett’s chair and ran after her.Jessica stood up to follow them, but I stopped her. I could see how anxious she was.“I think it’s better if we let them talk. They need this moment to fix what needs fixing.”“But…” she looked sadly toward the direction Scarlett and George had gone. Then, weakly and quietly, she sat back down.“Did you know about them?” Jessica asked with worry in her voice.“George mentioned something about him and Scarlett when I visited his condo,” I replied.She nodded slowly. I looked at her intently.“Did you like the flowers I’ve been sending you?” I asked, changing the topic. I was nervous about what her answer might be. I hoped she liked them.She look
