Nick’s POV

“Good morning, Sir.”

“Good morning, Manang.”

“Sir, Ma’am Matilda called. She said it’s Sir Elmer’s birthday. She’s asking if Dylan could visit.”

I froze. For a moment, I was stunned, processing what Manang had just said.

“I see… I’ll call her later. Please take Dylan upstairs, change his clothes, and prepare his food as well.”

“Alright, Sir.”

I went up to my room. Silence.

The kind of silence I once longed for, but now, it feels like punishment.

I bought this beach house four years ago. A decision born out of desperation. I wanted to be as close to Jessica as possible. I left everything behind in the city, the business, the name, everything that once mattered.

I paid someone to run the empire I once built with blood and ambition.

Money? Power? They mean nothing to me now. I have no one to spend it with anyway.

    Scarlett’s POV“Mommy… Huhuhu…”I stopped in my tracks as I was about to enter the school gate. My chest tightened when I saw the look on my daughter’s face.I rushed to her and hugged her tightly.“Babe!” I held her in my arms immediately.“Why are you crying?” I asked, my voice almost breaking in shock and worry.Classes had just started. This was supposed to be a happy day, full of play, laughter, and color on her face… but why was my daughter like this?Her voice trembled, her cheeks soaked in tears as she began to speak.“They’re bullying me, Mommy… They said I don’t have a father… That I’m an orphan… That you just picked me up on the street… and… and… that I came from a chicken!” she sobbed uncontrollably, her words almost incoherent.I felt numb. With every word my daughter spoke, it was as if my heart was being stabbed. I wanted to lash out. I wanted to confront those kids and defend her. But I forced myself to hide the trembling of my hands and the tears welling in my eyes.

He gave a slight nod.“I see…”“Do you want to hold an exhibit there?” Dad asked.Audrey’s eyes lit up.“Really? Can I?” Her eyes sparkled with excitement.“Of course,” Dad answered with a smile.“I’d love to,” she replied cheerfully.I couldn’t help but smile at her reaction. When it comes to art, she’s always on fire, excited, passionate, unstoppable.“But… would it be safe?” there was hesitation in her voice.“You’re Audrey Castellan, the fiancée of Sage San Fernando.

    Sage’s POVI gently stroked her hair while gazing at her. She was fast asleep. I thought she had fully recovered from the trauma of the explosion, so I was shocked when I heard her loud scream and the sound of glass shattering. Good thing I was already on my way upstairs.I looked at her softly.“If only I could let you know how much you mean to me,” I whispered.“Yes, I love you… but I can’t love you more…”For years, I’ve tried to hold back the deepening of my feelings for her. But the more I tried to resist, the deeper I fell.“Sage?”“Uhm… are you feeling better?” She sat beside me and pressed her body against mine, hugging me tightly.“I had a bad dream…” My eyes widened.“Do you remember your dream?” I asked.She nodded. “It felt so real. I was riding a boat… then suddenly, it exploded… and I was thrown into the air…”My breath caught.“I’ve been having the same dreams these past few nights,” she added.“Sage… I’m scared. I don’t know why, where… or what it means.”I hugged her

    Audrey’s POV“Congratulations, mi amore.”Sage walked toward me with a smile, carrying a large, fragrant bouquet of red roses.“Thank you… I missed you so much,” I whispered, hugging him tightly. It felt like a piece of home had returned to me. I took the flowers, kissed him on the cheek, and pulled him down to sit beside my desk.“Painting? Again?” he asked, his brows furrowed.“Your exhibit just ended. You have to rest.”I smiled, trying to show him I was fine.“It’s okay… This… this is my way of resting.”“I’m sorry I didn’t make it to your exhibit. I couldn’t finish my work right away.”“Then kiss me, so you can make it up to me.”I smiled and sat on his lap. I could feel his body tense, trembling slightly. He looked startled. I held his face, gazing at him. “Why won’t you kiss me?” I asked with a hint of hurt.“I’m your fiancée, right? Isn’t it normal to kiss?” I saw his Adam’s apple move, a sign of tension and restrained emotion.I leaned closer. Just a few inches between our

    Nick’s POV“Nick, please… please save Andrea… huhuhu…”When I arrived at the hospital, Mrs. Laviste rushed toward me, almost collapsing onto the wheelchair the nurse was pushing.“I can’t do this, Nick… I can’t bear to lose her. Please… save my daughter.”I couldn’t speak. I had no words. I was blank, like I wasn’t even there.“Where is Mrs. Laviste’s husband? The patient wants to speak with him,” the nurse asked.I looked at her.“…That’s me,” I whispered.“Please follow me.”Before I could step inside, I heard Mrs. Laviste’s voice again, shattered, desperate.“Nick, please… huhuhu… Save Andrea. Save my daughter…”Inside the room, Andrea lay there, pale, exhausted, her life slowly slipping away.“Nick…” she smiled faintly. “You came… thank you…”She forced the words out despite her shallow breaths.“I just wanna say sorry, Nick… huh… I’m sorry for everything. For coming between you and Jessica…”I just stared at her, silent. Heavy. So unbearably heavy.“I’ve committed many sins… esp

And I did nothing… NOTHING!”I had never seen him like this before.George, who was always brave. Always smiling. Always had an answer.Now, he was destroyed. Now, he was broken.He tried so hard to be strong when he visited me at the hospital.He wore his pain like armor.But now… it was gone.
