Prologue

The six-year-old Eva was sitting on a bench near the entrance of the orphanage, waiting for her parents, again. Ever since she started understanding things a little bit, Eva sat on the same bench every single day. She was waiting for her real parents to come and take her back home. But every day, she gets disappointed. In her young mind, she thinks something is wrong with her. She thought maybe that is the reason her parents left her."Eva, come. You're adopted parents have arrived." Mrs Bernardes called Eva and waved her hand signalling for the child to come.They went to the Head Office. The moment Eva walked inside the room, the face of the young couple lit up. Especially the woman. She looked so excited to have met Eva for the first time. Her eyes sparkle with emotions that Eva doesn't understand at her young age. The woman stretched out her right hand."Hi, sweety. Oh, you're so beautiful!" The woman exclaimed. "I'm Sara and this is my husband, David. We ar

The time when their simplest problem is no longer having the trendiest shoes, bags and hair in school. Life will get real, job hunting, dream of family and marriage. But for Eva Vergara, all of those were regular part of her life. Since the day she went to college she already taught herself how to be independent and wise. She has too, she doesn't have choice.As an adopted child, Eva taught herself not be dependent on the life her mom gave her. She worked part time while studying without her mom's knowledge. She worked on fastfood restaurants, printing shop and washed clothes of her boardmates in exchange for money. She did everything to save for her future."Oh my God, we graduated, at last!" Giselle, Eva's best friend, exclaimed happily.Eva shrieked and answered, "I know. Can you imagine

Chapter 2

Eva, together with her best friend Giselle started looking for a job a month after they graduated. But because of the joblessness hitting an all-time low, they were struggling to land a job. In their fourth month of trying and failing to find a decent job that will hire them, they started to lose hope. But one day, as they walk in the busy street of the business capital, a woman approached them. She wears a white collared shirt and black pants. "Hi! Are you looking for a job?" The woman asked while smiling."Yes, we do," Giselle answered quickly."That's great! Are you familiar with the BPO industry?" The woman asked again."Uh, we've heard of it but not really," Eva answered hesitantly."No problem, we have a job caravan right now. If you guys come with me, I can take you to Max, where our interviewers are waiting. You guys are fresh graduates?" BPO or Business Process Outsourcing is a fast-rising industry that o

They said success is nothing if you don't have anyone to share it with. Eva might completely agree. In five years, Eva already handled positions such as Quality Analyst, Subject Matter Expert, Workforce and now, a Team Manager. Her team is the most envied team in the whole site. They always manage to stay on top and have been hoarding awards and recognition ever since they started. Nobod could beat them on a month to month basis. Eva already lost count on how many times a Team Manager requested for her team to be investigated and they calls to be reviewed. But each time Eva and her team will prove them wrong.They would mock the people who wanted to drag them down by singing and dancing so loud after every time that they will be investigated. They would show how ineffective those petty issues against their team. Eva became so proud with her team and learned how to be mor fierce for them. She was the one who demanded for agents to have more compensations and incentives to moti

Chapter 4

It's been two months since Eva and Jack met. And it's been two months since Giselle started to be so overprotective of Eva. They've had arguments a few times because of Eva's association with Jack. No matter how many times Eva tried to say that Jack is trying to change for her, Giselle would never believe it."You've been going out with Jack too often." Giselle coldly said behind Eva while she fixes the bouquet of red roses that Jack gave her earlier. It's been a regular occurrence that would pick her up to take her home or to work."Giselle, please, you have to stop this." Eva held the vase where she put those beautiful roses and placed them on a table near the window. Being an operation manager, Eva got her private workspace."I'm trying to protect you. Don't you see that?" Giselle said, almost begging. "He's not the man for you, Eva. He's a womanizer. He's living a scandalous life." Giselle explained."You have to relax, best friend. I haven't even sai

Chapter 5

Eva's life took a remarkable turn when she met Jack. Day by day, Jack would make her feel loved and special. He would always have something up his sleeve to surprise Eva and make her smile. At this point, Eva was so sure she made the right decision when she said to Jack. It's her day off, and she wanted to surprise Jack with a home-cooked meal. She knew that Jack doesn't have enough time to eat when he wakes up in the morning to go to work. She thought it was the least she could do.On her way to Jack's office, Eva saw a woman; she could be the same age as her mom, walking alone in the street. Something inside her ache. The woman was carrying a plastic basket and something heavy at the top of her head. Eva decided to pull over."Excuse me," Eva called the woman's attention. "Let me give you a ride. Come on." She happily offered."Oh, no. It's okay. I manage." The woman politely refused."No, Ma'am. I insist." Eva got out of the car and helped the woman wi

Chapter 6

Giselle can feel that her best is happy with how her life is going. But for some reason, her guts still tell her not to judge Jack. Sometimes, she feels guilty for being mean to him without a valid reason. Giselle just can't. While she worries about Eva's love life, Giselle is building an incredible love story with Lindon. Every day that she gets to spend with him, she's one step closer to dreaming of a life with him."You're stressing yourself about Eva again," Lindon said behind. He found Giselle standing in front of her office window, watching as Eva walk towards Jack."Why can't you trust Jack? What did he do to you?" Lindon asked her."I don't know, Lind," Giselle admitted. "I'm trying to like him; I'm trying to be nice to him. But I just can't." She faced Lindon. "Am I a bad person?""What? Are you kidding? If you're a bad person, then there is no good person left in the world." Lindon joked. "But, seriously, don't you ever think of yourself a bad p

Chapter 7

It's been four months since Eva said yes to Jack's proposal. The exact number of days that she hasn't talk to Giselle. This is the first time they've gone for days without talking. Giselle won't even look at her in the office. Eva was trying her best to understand Giselle's suspicions about Jack. She knew that her best friend was just trying to protect her. But Jack never did anything to make her feel that way. And that is what Eva couldn't understand."Babe, which one do you think suits the theme of our wedding?"She tried to talk to Giselle multiple times, but she will turn her back on her. Giselle is the only one that Eva considers as a family, and she wanted her best friend to be part of her special day."Babe, are you with me?" Jack held her hand that made her snapped back to reality."I'm sorry, you were saying?" Eva asked, ashamed of spacing out. They were supposed to be happy and excited about their upcoming wedding. But her mind kept circling bac

Chapter 8

A year into their marriage when Jack started drinking. He will come home almost every night, drunk and angry. Eva is trying her best to be an understanding wife. She would take care of him, feed, bathe him, and change his clothes even when Jack would tell her, blaming her that she no longer receives offers in her modeling career."Babe, let's eat? Dinner's ready." Eva calmly announced to her husband, Jack, who's lying in their bed."Do you know what I see in you right now?" Jack asked her in a rude tone. "Desperation."Eva was stunned by her husband's statement, but she chose to be quiet. They are already the talk of the neighborhood one and a half months after their marriage. Every time that Jack would come home, he drunk. But even in his drunken state, he would still abuse Eva. And she can't complain, his words were always "you're my wife, and this is your obligation."Eva was about to go downstairs to eat alone when Jack grabbed her shoulders and pushe
