Semua Bab My Little Secrets...: Bab 21 - Bab 30

CHAPTER TWENTY TWO Jessica’s POV   Marcus van was bigger than mine. It was like a minibus type of van. I actually like it.  "Your Mom invited me for dinner this weekend." He said while driving.  He told me that his driver was sick so he didn't have a choice but to drive us to Batangas. It will be a three hour drive.  I removed my eye mask because of what he said and pulled myself from his comfy air bed.  What?!  "I'm sorry, Marcus. You know my Mom. You declined her invitation, right?" I asked, hoping for him to say yes.  I saw him looking at the rear view mi

CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR   Jessica’s POV   I suddenly woke up when I felt someone touch my face.  I saw Marcus looking down at me.  His eyes were red and tired.  I hurriedly stood up but he held on both of my shoulders, making me fall back on the folding bed.  "Marcus what are you doing?" I asked softly, not wanting to make a scene.  "Why can't you like me? Is there someone else in your life that I don't know?" He asked in a hard tone.  "Marcus, you're still drunk! Let's talk about it later, okay? Calm down and lower down your voice. Someone might hear you." I said a

CHAPTER TWENTY SIX   Jessica’s POV   Ethan’s jaw clenched as I finished telling him what really happened. I could see that he was trying so hard to be calm.  "You won't be seeing him again from now on." He said sternly.  I gulped.  "Simone, drive faster."

I saw Simone looking at us in the rearview mirror.  I didn't dare to speak again and just busied myself on replying to Fabio.  He was furious too.  'Five channel networks want to have an interview with you. Just tell me that you don't want to answer that lying idiot and I will turn them down now.' Fabio texted.  I cursed under my breath.  Mom and I did everything for my career and I couldn't believe that this issue would snatch away all of our hard work. I clear away the lump in my throat.  I felt

CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT   Jessica’s POV   "Good morning." I bow down to them when they stop in front of me.  "Good morning, Jessy. Please meet our grandmaster, Mr. Wilfredo Elizalde. Sir, she's our new student here." Sir Alex introduced us.  I smiled at them.  "Welcome, Jessy. I hope you learn more in our school." Mr. Elizalde said. He has this serious awra even though he's smiling.  "Do you usually go here this early? You are." Mr. Elizalde paused to look at his wrist watch. "Two hours early. Come join us for a cup of coffee." He added and tapped Sir Alex's shoulder. 

CHAPTER THIRTY    Jessica’s POV   I was leaning on Ethan's shoulder inside the van.  "Sir Ethan." I heard something in Simone's voice.  I opened my eyes and looked around.  "Are we home?" I asked.  "Change of plans. We will be staying in your unit instead." Ethan answered and nodded at Simone.  "Why?" I asked.  "Long story. Go back to sleep." Ethan said and pulled my head to lean on his shoulder again.  I was too tired to argue and ask questions to him so I closed my eyes again and comfortably leaned on hi
