The next day, Manuela was visibly in a great mood at the office. She seemed to radiate happiness, a joy she couldn't quite contain.

She was humming a tune when a knock came at her door. Suzie entered, immediately noticing Manuela's cheerful aura.

"Something good happened, boss? Care to share the reason for that bright aura?" Suzie asked, smiling as she placed three folders on Manuela's desk.

"These are the investigation reports on our budget deficit. Mr. Caticlan pocketed the budget, inflating the prices of our supplies. What do you think we should do?" Suzie asked.

"I'll fire him, of course. He's stealing from my company. But I'll let him go tomorrow; I don't want to ruin my mood today," Manuela said, causing Suzie to raise an eyebrow.

"Why are you in such a good mood today? Is it because of Mr. Urquio?" Suzie teased, instantly wiping the smile off Manuela's face at the mention of Uno's name.

    The next morning, Manuela, Uno, and Lucas ate breakfast together. Manuela kept glancing at Uno, who ate silently. She hadn't slept well after his scolding the previous night.Manuela wanted to apologize again for her actions, knowing she wouldn't find peace until she did."Uhmmm, U-Uno…""Don't talk; I don't want to speak with you," Uno coldly interrupted."B-but I want to apologize for my negligence—" Manuela started, flinching as Uno violently dropped his utensils before giving her a cold stare."I don't want to hear any fucking apologies or excuses, Ms. Ibañez. So shut the fuck up."Manuela hung her head, unable to respond; she was at fault."Brother, why are you yelling at my sister? Shouldn't couples avoid fighting?" Lucas commented, causing Manuela to look at him."Lucas, it's okay—""—your sister is at fault, kiddo, so don't take her side," Uno coldly interrupted, as Santi arrived and whispered something to him."Are they all gathered in one place?""They are, sir," Santi repli

    "Just let me know, Mr. Urquio, the date of your honeymoon so I can prepare the things we discussed," the organizer said before leaving the restaurant.Manuela couldn't eat properly because of Uno's conversation. She knew this honeymoon, constantly reminded by Don Victorino, was for their charade. Manuela struggled to comprehend their discussion, especially the exorbitant amount Uno was spending on their fake honeymoon."Are you done eating?" Uno asked, turning to Manuela."Do you think I can eat after that conversation? Really, Uno? Three hundred thousand pesos for a honeymoon?""My old man will suspect us if I don't allocate a significant budget for this honeymoon. I don't want to hear his bullshit 'if I love you' card," Uno replied flatly, earning a kick to the shin from Manuela."Don't curse! My brother might hear you.""Tss! If you're done eating, let's go home.""But you haven't eaten anything," Manuela pointed out, noting that Uno hadn't touched his food."I'm not hungry. Let's

    "Ughhh!" groaned the dying man sprawled on the floor, his hands bound. His face was bloody, a dagger protruding from his shoulder.He lay before Uno, who sat cross-legged, emotionless, staring at the man."Mozart.""Yes, el señor?" Piero Mozart approached; Uno's head capos, handling field work and transactions."Did you burn his people like I told you to?""That's already done, el señor. The dust has literally settled; I cremated them," Mozart replied."M-Master U-Uno, p-please spare me… I-I'll make amends…" the man on the floor pleaded, his voice strained, his eyes pleading with Uno."Spare you? After you stole most of my fucking high-end guns to sell at triple the price, you want me to fucking spare you? Give me a fucking reason why I would let you live," Uno said coldly."I-I won't do it again, Master Uno…""You're a fucking thief, and a hand that can't behave must be cut off. What do you think?" Uno said, gesturing to one of his men, who immediately unbound the man but restrained

    Manuela sighed heavily at her desk, overwhelmed by her situation at Uno's manor. From the very first night, things hadn't gone well. It wasn't just the storage room; Manuela sensed the staff's dislike for her and Lucas in everything, even their meals.The food served to them last night was incredibly salty, yet Uno ignored it. He did nothing, and Manuela saw that he would side with his staff rather than her."That asshole! He surely knew his staff would treat me badly, but he just ignores it. Fine, let them gang up. That man offered me the chance to become Mrs. Urquio for his plan, and this is what happens? It's infuriating!" Manuela complained, burying her face in her desk."I want this to be over…" she muttered when her phone rang.Seeing the caller ID, she sat up straighter before answering Don Victorino's call."Hello, Don Vic—I mean, Lolo. Why did you call?" Manuela answered, still not used to calling him grandfather."Are you at your company right now?""Yes, Lolo. Why?""Damn

    "This is your room, you two. You can go in now, I suppose?"The maid knocked on the door and left Manuela and Lucas standing before the room without a word. Viktor didn't stay long at Uno's manor either; he said goodbye and left them, leaving Manuela with the distinct feeling that they weren't welcome."Everyone here is supposedly aware that I'm their boss's wife, so they should treat us right, shouldn't they? But their hostility is clear to me," Manuela muttered to herself, turning to Lucas, who was tugging at her arm."I want to rest, Ate," Lucas said. Manuela opened the door.What she saw inside shocked her."W-what is this?" Manuela asked incredulously. Their room was a storage room.Clothes piled high, covered in dust sheets, and a single bed that wouldn't comfortably fit three people—it looked like it would collapse if anyone lay on it."Seriously?" Manuela exclaimed, pulling Lucas out of the room."Lucas, stay here, okay? Ate has something to do. I'll be right back," Manuela s
