51. All Yours

-Conner’s POV- When Joseph said that there’s someone blocking our way, I immediately knew who it was. I can say that I have been waiting for this moment, however I didn’t want it this way, not with Lucy. I am not worried of facing Bernard Yates, but I am worried about Lucy’s safety. This Bernard whom Uncle Jack said was my father’s bestfriend, betrayed my father. He was just then an apprentice until he earned my father’s trust and eventually became business partners of ‘L’s Clothing’. Bit by bit he built his own clothing business behind my father’s back and used the marketing strategies which my father worked hard on. He is a total mock in the business industry, but a real threat at the same time. He was the reason of ‘L’s Clothing’s downfall. My father was never able to recover for everytime he executes a plan Bernard was always able to implement it first. He is a cheeky thief and I believe that he has more under his sleeves. I will make him confess and make sure that all o

52. Would You Mind

-Lucy’s POV- I wasn’t just making an alibi when I said I was feeling tired and sleepy because I truly was. I don’t know maybe it was the adrenaline rush after all the courage I put up to face that—who was that again? Was it Bernard? I can still imagine the look on his face. It was terrifying, but for some reason I built that strong urge to fight back and to be honest it really felt good knowing that I can actually do that. I mean, how cool is that knowing that I can face anything if I just put my mind and heart into it. Then, I realized that I did that because Conner really meant something to me. I know that I have feelings for him, but I haven’t truly figured out the depth of it, not until now. Seeing and knowing that he is in danger made everything clear to me. That what I am feeling for him is not just mere infatuation, but I truly love him. Having this realization made it more difficult and scarier because this is new to me and I don’t have any clue if he feels something for me to

53. I’m Scared, But

-Lucy’s POV-I didn’t know where that came from, but I said it anyway and so I can’t take back the words that I said. You may not have planned it, but that’s what your heart truly desires. You love him! Why don’t you just give him a chance and make things easier for the both of you? Why do you have to keep on testing him? Give yourself a break and just let things flow. Maybe, just maybe you will really end up happy with him. If things do go wrong, then you’ll deal with it when it does happen. But what if it doesn’t? Are you going to keep on wallowing in your own misery? Sometimes my alter-ego is right. This time she is not being sarcastic, she is now doing real talk. I can sense that Conner was startled with what he heard from me. He started playing with my fingers like he doesn’t know what to do. “Baby, please don’t play games with me. You know how eager I am to kiss you right now so please let me. Please d

54. My Weakness

-Conner’s POV- “I know you are scared, but please—” Say what? My ears must be deceiving me. Did I hear that right? She loves me? I blinked a couple of times and looked at her straight in the eye. “Did- did you- Can you please repeat to me what you just said?” I can see her blush. That is so cute. She turned her head and said, “I said what I said and I’m not going to say it again.” I cupped her face with my two hands, “Please, I just want to hear it again. I want to make sure that what I heard was right.” She pouted which made her look more irresistible. “Oh Lucy, do you know what you are doing to me?” She then wore a confused look. I took her right hand and placed it on my manhood. Her eyes widened when she finally understood what I meant. I sighed in frustration because I know I can’t touch her for now because of her condition. “I want you to understand though that this is not just what you are doing to me. You are making me feel different emotions I sometimes couldn’t understand. Y

55. I am Nobody’s Fiancé

-Lucy POV-I don’t know what this is, but I think I am in between the state of being awake and dreaming. I mean the moment I let my walls down, everything suddenly was put into place. I never even thought that I would see an actual ‘twinkling of the eyes’ like what I have seen in movies. Conner right now is nothing, but a sweet and loving husband to me. It has been a week since we became official, and he has constantly been giving me butterflies in my stomach.I was advised by the doctor to take a rest until my medication of my ulcer is done and he never forgets to chat or give me a call to remind me to take my meds. I also try to manage the café online. It has been crazy busy at the cafe especially with Ronald’s premiere, but Conner is helping me supervise everything while I can’t go to the café in person. He has been doing all the dirty work while I watch him online. I admire how he is able to facilitate everything at the café without forgetting my presence even though I am just in

56. Can’t Own What you Don’t

-Conner’s POV-I am exhausted and I just want to go home to be with my wife. Oh Lucy you are driving me nuts. The moment she said she loves me, the more I got obsessed with her. I think of her every single moment and just want to snuggle and make love with her. It is insane how thinking of her now is making me super aroused. Keep calm Conner, you still have one more week to wait until her medication is done. Oh jeez! A day is already an agony, how much more the two weeks that I have been waiting. For the sake of her health, I have to juggle two things at the same time, my company and hers. I had no intentions of leaving for work today, but I had to cater to the delivery of goods in the café and so I had to leave Lucy in her sweet-scented pajamas. Ugh! I have to make this quick so that I can go home early. As soon as all are accounted for I immediately left to be with my wife. I got excited when I saw her standing at the living room still in her pajamas, but that somehow vanished when

57. Please, Take Me

-Lucy’s POV-I gave a sarcastic smile at Margaret before turning my back to leave, but what I did not expect is for her to do a drastic move against me. “You low-life bitch!” she said with her voice screeching because of anger. She paced towards me and reached for my hair and pulled it hard. “Who do you think you are!? Do you know who I am?! You don’t know who you are dealing with and so if I were you, you would think twice of what you will say and do to me.” The words she said didn’t really register in my brain for I was too focused on the pain I felt caused by the pulling of my hair. Conner ran towards me and broke us apart. My head was throbbing, and I badly want to get even with her. “Listen, Margaret I honestly do not know who you are and I do not intend to know because knowing you is not a responsibility that I need to carry on my shoulders. You can do whatever you want to do and you can have whatever you want to have, I don’t care! As long as it does not involve my family. You

58. The Wait is Worth It

-Conner’s POV-Every ounce of self-constraint that I had just gave up and I instantly gave in to my desire. I leaned my forehead on hers, “I have been controlling my desires for God knows how long.” I took a deep breath before whispering “I can’t promise that I will be gentle.” She seductively giggled and moved her lips closer to mine, “I didn’t say that you should be.” F*ck it! I miss her. I miss her so bad. I’m sorry I can’t hold it any longer. I groaned and cupped her cheeks and sealed our desires with a long passionate kiss. I didn’t want us to stop kissing that we can only manage short breaths in between. Her moans are priceless as I nibbled around the surface of her breasts before lingering my tongue on her nipples while the finger of my other hand is busy exploring her other breast. I started kissing the valley between her breasts then down to her tummy. I feel like I didn’t want to miss any spot of her body. I want to savor ever inch of her. I stopped what I was doing as I pul

59. I Was Willing To

-Lucy’s POV-I am truly excited to get busy again in my café. I love the sweet scent of flour, the heat, and the hustle. I am used to the rush, and it makes me feel alive. It has been two weeks since I left to rest because of my peptic ulcer. I am currently preparing my things when Conner got out from the shower. He approached and hugged me from behind “Are you sure you are going back to work now?” I faced him and said, “I know you can do things for me, but I miss my job. The café is my life even before we met each other and besides I don’t want to get used to having you do things for me.” He sighed “But I want you to. I told you I got your back.” I kissed him on the lips “I know, but I want to do this.” He shrugged his shoulders in surrender “Okay, fine. Anything you want I will support.” I hugged him tight “Thank you, baby! Hmmm…Want pancakes for breakfast? I’ll make some.” He smiled and nodded. I gave him a quick kiss before going to the kitchen.I am preparing the ingredients to c

60. You Have No Idea

-Lucy’s POV- I may be making a drastic move, but I do feel that I have gambled everything just to lose. Maybe you are just overreacting. Maybe you have to give Conner a chance to explain. Don’t be too selfish. Me? Selfish? I made her look down on me the moment she laid eyes on me. She couldn’t even believe that I am Conner’s wife! Then, I allowed Conner to make her stay at our house! Our home! That’s our private space, but somehow Conner managed to persuade me into getting my permission to make room for her! And now she is sitting on his lap like she owns him! Is that being selfish?! Don’t you think that that’s being selfless? Her timing is on the spot. She barged into our relationship when everything is going perfectly well. I am sitting down on our bed truly astonished by the thought. I scoffed, “You never fail to amaze me Conner. After all the revelation, you didn’t even dare to catch up with me nor dare to stop me from leaving. Instead, you stayed by her side and not w
