I continued cooking and after a while, I served fried rice, hotdogs, omelet, and bacon on the table. I faced the grabite table and got the sliced bread out of the oven toaster. "Coffee or milk?" I ask without looking at him. "Coffee would be better..." he replied. I turned my back and started making coffee for us both. "Any plans for today?" I pursed my lips, pressing the coffee maker. "I don't..." "Wanna go watch the movie?" I didn't reply, silently placing a cup of coffee in front of him. "You should eat, you still need to go to work..." I picked my spoon and fork up and started eating. I know he was stunned by what I said. I can't force myself to act normally around him, like nothing happened. "Okay then, if you don't have any plans for today yet, I'll just stay here with for the whole day," he declared. I rocketed my gaze at him. I dropped my utensils and leaned my back against my chair.

She hugged and kissed my cheek before holding my shoulders. She scanned me before shaking her head, smiling. "My god! Where have you been?! I haven't seen you in a long time!" I smiled a bit. "I guess I really enjoyed my vacation. So, how are you here?" "Everything is fine here, we're actually planning to open a big sale event this coming month. Christmas is about to come. The meeting just ended, I'm glad I saw you!" she said, eyes wide as she spoke. Zuay is one of my friends since high school. She's one of the people I trusted my company with, considering that she's also one of the stock holders together with Tawin. The three of us had a big share of the company. Although, Zekiah is the major stock holder and eventually the CEO of the company. Because I'm the wife, I'm also treated as the owner. "It's good to hear that! Sorry for my absence, promise, I'll make it up!" I held both her hands and smiled sincerely. "Don't worry! You're no

I clasped my hand together underneath the table. I can't deny that it pains me when I heard those words come out from their mouth. For all we know, I was the one who pushed myself on Hezekiah from the start. I did everything just for him to notice me so I understand why their this mad at Hezekiah. "We better not talk about it right now. It's not good to talk about someone who's not here," Ellwood said. "True! If we keep on talking about him, my night will be ruined!" Zuay rolled her eyes. Because of that, no one asked about Hezekiah. I was silently thankful for Ellwood. If he's not here, I'm sure no one would answer their questions. "You really don't have a girlfriend until now? How about your recent relationship with Pia? You lasted quite long, huh?" Zuay asked him with a playful smile on her face. His lips lifted while swirling the wine aroumd the glass. "Maybe, we're not meant for each other..." His eyes went to me which mad

After I finished, I picked the most expensive and elegant evening dress in my closet. My curves was perfectly shown as it fitted my body. I let my naturally curly hair down. I smiled as I looked at myself inside the mirror. I had a thin pointed face, cheekbones that sat high on my face. Lips that smear of pink lipstick and glossy skin. I was contented as I pulled my purse and went out of my room. I was gripping at the steering wheel tightly as I drove closer to the place. I felt mixed emotions of fear. Fear of myself and fear of what would happen after. If I won't do this, Hezekiah might slip off from me. I need to bring him back, no matter what it takes. I parked my car at the main door. I took a deep breath and glanced at the entrance. I'm determined and no one could stop me. I handed my key to the valet and walked inside. I gave my name to the receptionist with a huge smile on my face. She looked at my gown first before nodd

v She instantly shot her brows up at me before looking at Mom who was pale from all the happenings. "Ah, will you please excuse us for awhile?" Marcus grabbed my arm and pulled me somewhere. He brought me to a dark corner where only few people pass by. "Let go of me if you don't want me to humiliate all of you!" I said with my full voice. "Not here! You can't do this here, Meredith," he whispered with piercing eyes. "Yes, I could! I will do it and no one could stop me, not even you!" I exclaimed. I tried to pull my arm from his grasp but he didn't let me. "Alessandra wants her anniversary be held im here. It's for your own good, too. Because I want other people to think that Gabriel's a different person and not your husband,Hezekiah!" he said with clenching jaw. I narrowed my eyes at him and pushed him forcefully. "How dare you?! What do you think of the people here? Stupid fools?! If you managed to mani
