Chapter 10

Jessica’s POV

"Manang, has Daddy come home yet?" I asked one of our housemaids who had just brought me a snack.

"Not yet, Señorita," she replied.

I simply nodded and continued painting. I still couldn't understand why they wouldn’t let me help with the family business. I went against their wishes to further hone my painting skills and studied business instead. Not to boast, but I know I'm already good at painting.

Many people admire my artwork and want to get to know me, but I chose to remain a secret. I don’t know why,. I guess I’m just not ready to reveal myself to the world yet. Maybe it’s because I grew up always confined to my room, never allowed to come out during family occasions. Only a few people even know that Daddy has another child. I used to ask them why, and they always told me it was to keep me safe because the business world is dangerous. I understood their reasoning, especially since my grandfather was almost kidnapped before. Maybe that’s why they are so s

  • Unstoppable Desire (English)   Chapter 338

    Nick’s POV “The view is beautiful…” I turned around when I heard Audrey’s voice behind me. She was awake.She was staring at the sun slowly rising above the mountains. The golden rays touched her face, making her glow.“Yes, it really is,” I replied softly, though my eyes weren’t on the sunrise, but on her.She tilted her head back slightly, letting the warmth of the sun embrace her. She smiled, eyes closed, as if savoring every second.Lovely, I thought.When she opened her eyes, I quickly looked away and pretended to be busy admiring the scenery in front of us. But I could feel her gaze on me. I acted like I didn’t notice and just kept my eyes on the mountains.We stayed quiet, both caught in the beauty of the moment, until the air began to grow warmer.“We need to go,” I finally said.She nodded and followed me back to the car.When she got in, I noticed her frown as she realized her seat was reclined. She looked at me, silently asking why, but I avoided her eyes.I started the en

  • Unstoppable Desire (English)   Chapter 337

    Nick’s POVI can’t explain the joy and excitement running through me about this trip with Audrey. I could barely sleep, thinking about what might happen.Last Monday, Mr. San Fernando called and asked me to design a resort. He sent me photos of the land where it would be built and told me he wanted me to handle the project myself. It’s a billion-dollar project, an enormous opportunity. After five years away from the spotlight, this could be my comeback.He gave me a list of everything he wanted for the resort. For three days straight, I did nothing but research and plan, trying to form a clear direction. Then he called again.“Hello, Mr. Ford. Good morning.” “Good morning, Mr. San Fernando,” I greeted politely. “I was thinking of sending you there with Audrey.”The moment he mentioned her name, something flickered in me. My chest tightened, but in a good way.“Do a site analysis and feasibility study,” he continued. “Bring your materials. It would be better if you start there, feel

    Audrey’s POVI received a text from Nick last night about the trip. He even tried calling, but I didn’t answer. I don’t know why… maybe because I was afraid to hear his voice. Instead, I just replied to his message, confirming I’d go.I’ve been nervously waiting here in the condo lobby for a while. We’re leaving early, three in the morning, and I’m still half-asleep. He’s picking me up. I had just stepped out of the elevator when my phone rang. It was Sage.He’s still abroad, and I don’t even know when he’ll be back. Since I’m usually just at the gallery, I didn’t bring Elena with me even though she insisted. I told her I already informed Sage, so she dropped the topic. Even about this trip with Nick.

    Audrey’s POVIt’s been a few days since I saw Nick at the pizza parlor.I don’t even know why I acted that way that day. I mean, I’ve always been confident, but somehow, around Nick, I lost that composure. I embarrassed myself more than once, and even now, just thinking about it makes my cheeks burn all over again.“Ma’am, here’s the inventory for the new paintings that just arrived.” My thoughts were interrupted when one of the staff entered my office.“Where’s Scarlett?” I asked.“She’s still there, ma’am. She’s checking the new paintings,” the staff replied.“Okay. Just leave it there.” She placed the folder on the table and left. I was about to reach for it when my phone rang. A smile instantly appeared on my face when I saw the name flashing on the screen.“Papa! How are you?”“Doing great, Audrey, still handsome as ever,” he joked, laughing afterward.I couldn’t help but chuckle. I’m really thankful that I became close to Sage’s father. At first, he looked intimidating, but ev

  • Unstoppable Desire (English)   Chapter 334

    Nick’s POVI can’t help but smile whenever I remember what happened earlier between me and Audrey.She’s so cute, especially when she blushes.“My Jessica…” I whispered to myself.I was so happy seeing her okay. Just last night, she looked weak and in pain, it felt like someone stabbed my heart. It hurt so much, because all I could do was watch her from afar… and what hurt even more was knowing that another man was there for her. I couldn’t even go near her, hold her, or comfort her.“Uncle Nick, can I ask you something?” Aiah suddenly spoke, while I was watching her and Dylan play with their Lego set.“Sure,” I replied with a smile.“Uhm… what’s your type of girl? Is it like Dylan’s mom?”I was caught off guard, and so was Dylan, judging by his surprised expression.“Hmm…” I pretended to think deeply, but instead of dragging it out, I answered directly, “My type of girl is someone who can tame me.”“Tame you? Hmmm…” Aiah’s brows furrowed as she tried to analyze my words, clearly lo

    Scarlett’s POV“Gosh… that was insane. What the hell, Scarlett,” I muttered under my breath.I snapped back to the present. Did I really go that wild last night? Was I really the one who took charge? My eyes widened in disbelief. Was I really that desperate?I still remember how I moved with George, how lost I was in the moment. I was bold, unrestrained… completely taken over by the heat of it all. What’s wrong with me?“Scarlett, you’re shameless!” I shouted, covering my mouth right after. “Oh my gosh, that was so embarrassing. What must George
