CHAPTER 51
Leigh was heating up the food Yaya Fracia had cooked for their dinner that night. Actually, she had no intention of eating because it was past 11 at night, but because she couldn't sleep because of hunger, she couldn't do anything but to eat. While Leigh was stirring the pork stew dish, she couldn't help but think about what happened earlier.Why is Denise so anxious about Wayne not dating anyone?Why she badly wants Wayne to get married?And despite that, why does Wayne still not want to enter into a relationship? Is it because he is really too busy with his work? Or does Wayne has really no plan of getting married?But Wayne is right about what he said earlier; why would his sister think about him not getting married and having a relationship if she's not even in a relationship herself? Argh! They are both hard to understand. I know there's a part that I can't understand this situation because I don't have any siblings. No one can worry about me because I'm alon

CHAPTER 52
THE NEXT DAY… Wayne and Leigh are on their way to a meeting at a coffee shop. While Leigh was in the shotgun seat, Wayne was driving while explaining what the woman had to do later."You don't have to be scared. This is just a casual meeting. If you don't want to answer, no one will force you," Wayne explained to Leigh.'Even though Leigh didn't say it, I knew she was really nervous. She had been quiet before and seemed to be deep in thought. I don't want her to make a mistake in the meeting later, so as much as possible, I have to tell her what she should do.'"Don't answer if you don't want to. You have all the right to refuse. When the lawyer asks you later some things that you don't feel comfortable answering, you also don't have to answer." Wayne saw Leigh's nod out of the corner of his eye. She obviously understood what I was saying, so I continued again, "You can say that you agree politely to what we will say to you later. But this isn't to say you should just g

CHAPTER 53
Just as discussed, Wayne and Leigh arrived at the cafe where they were going to meet. Wayne looked very formal as Leigh followed behind him. Their meeting partner was also there looking directly at them. The old woman's raised eyebrows did not escape Leigh's sight."Don't get triggered by her look," Wayne simply whispered to Leigh. He could also see how the old woman looked in Leigh's direction."I'm used to that face, no. Nothing has changed. Don't worry," Leigh whispered back, making Wayne smile secretly. It didn't take long before they reached the table, where the opponent's attorney immediately stood up."Nice to see you again, Attorney Ferrer," Khalil greeted without emotion as he extended his hand.'Wow! Is he the old woman's attorney? In fairness, huh, he's handsome. They seem to be the same age as Wayne. But why is that? He did greet Wayne but didn't seem happy to see him. Are they fighting? Ah, I get it. Maybe it's because they are rivals in the case they

Wayne frowned when his eyes caught Leigh's quick run to the cafe bathroom. He even saw the laughing expression of the old woman as she came out, which is why he immediately worried for Leigh. Wayne immediately entered and waited for Leigh to come out of the comfort room. He waited for a few minutes until he heard the bathroom door close.He ran when he saw Leigh leaning against the wall of the hallway, where she was obviously weak."Leigh, are you okay? Are you sick? Tell me!" Wayne immediately supported her, but Leigh quickly took back the hand that Wayne was holding; she shrugged it off."Don't touch me. I'm fine." Leigh refused him and quickly straightened up."You're not okay. You look so pale. What happened?" Wayne is worried about Leigh's condition.'What happened to her? She was fine before I left her with that old woman.'"I'll take you to the hospital," Wayne added."Don't. That's not necessary to do. I just want to go home." And Wayne didn't speak anym

CHAPTER 55
Leigh cried for so long after her conversation with her friend, Cattleya, and after crying so hard, she felt thirsty. She would have just let it and ignored it, but she knew that she couldn't sleep. Then she decided to leave her room and get some water downstairs. Leigh wiped her tears and walked out of her room. But Leigh automatically stopped when she passed the closed door of Wayne's room. She heard someone moaning from inside, which made her frown."What is that? Is Wayne still awake?" Leigh asked herself. "It's not just a simple moaning, because if I heard correctly... it seems like was grunting with pain. Is Wayne in pain? What is happening to him inside? Shall I knock on his door?" Leigh still asked one after the other because she suddenly felt worried.Leigh ignored the thirst she felt because she decided to knock on Wayne's room. Leigh stepped closer to the closed door of the young man's room, and that's when she started knocking."Wayne? Wayne, are you still awake?" Her knoc

CHAPTER 56
For half a day, I just helped Mama do the laundry. When lunch came, I cooked our lunch first and continued helping again. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, I was hanging clothes at the back of the house. I lost track of time because I focused my full attention on what I was doing. And while I was busy hanging the clothes we washed, I suddenly heard Mama calling my name from the front of our house."Leigh, come here!""Why, ma? I'm still doing something," I shouted back because I was in the back of the house while Mama was in front."Go here first; hurry up.""Oh, fine! I'm going now."I left what I was doing and then went to the front of our house. I was immediately stunned when I saw Wayne standing in front of Mama. His car parked outside our gate did not escape my sight either. He was carrying my bag in his other hand while I also noticed that Mama was carrying boxes of bread; Wayne must have given it to Mama. I fixed my slightly messy hair and felt a little e

CHAPTER 57
Despite not having slept well the previous night due to her racing thoughts, and in addition to that, consistently checking on Wayne's condition in the adjacent room, Leigh managed to rouse herself early the following morning. The ambiance retained a lingering dimness as Leigh awoke. Passing Wayne's room, she cast another fleeting glance inside to ascertain if he remained in peaceful slumber. Squinting her eyes, she gently twisted the doorknob to Wayne's room. Inside, Wayne was still sleeping peacefully. She carefully closed the door again and proceeded straight to the kitchen. Aware that Yaya Fracia typically came around eight in the morning, Leigh realized she'd have to get Wayne's medication ready once he woke up. Taking charge, she decided to take the initiative to cook and prepare their breakfast. She opted to prepare something quick and easy. She needed to hurry since she also had work to attend to. She rustled up a batch of ready-to-mix pancakes and fried sunny-side-up eggs.

CHAPTER 58
Leigh's eyes widened as she read Wayne's text message. She didn't know why, but her eyebrows furrowed involuntarily upon seeing the three red heart emojis from Wayne's message."Ugh! This is my fault. Why did I accidentally press the heart emoji out of all the emojis on my phone?" Leigh complained to herself. She felt like slamming her phone against her head, but she restrained herself because there were many restaurant staff around her now.She was on break along with a few colleagues.Throughout the morning, Leigh had only received three delivery orders. Not many people were ordering online, so she had some time to rest now. Since she was quite worried about Wayne, she decided to send him a text as her first move. But this is what happened; she accidentally pressed something she shouldn't have.She decided to send Wayne another message. She thought maybe she could take back her earlier message.To: Wayne'I accidentally pressed the heart... I didn't mean to.' Sent.She

CHAPTER 59
Wayne quickly closed the folder he had been reading that evening. He also glanced at his black wristwatch and noticed it was almost seven o'clock. He stood up, about to reach for the black coat hanging on his swivel chair, when Brent suddenly entered his office without even knocking."Oh? Leaving already?" Brent asked him, carrying about five white folders, catching Wayne's quick gaze.Wayne was currently at his law firm during that time. He had initially decided not to go to the office, claiming he was still recovering from the illness he had the night before. But boredom got the best of him at home, especially since Leigh wasn't there, so he ended up showing up around noon after having lunch.Leigh had eaten incredibly quickly, almost finishing her meal in about five bites before promptly leaving after Wayne paid for her orders."Yeah. Just put the folders on my table," Wayne replied without much emotion as he put on his coat. He noticed from the corner of his eye that Bre

CHAPTER 60
Wayne's hand continued to caress her thigh, moving up and down, while he maintained his unwavering gaze into her eyes."Please, tell me you're not going to work anymore. I'm offering you a secretarial position at my firm. Why can't you just accept it, huh?" Leigh bit her lower lip in response to the warmth she felt from Wayne's touch, but she restrained herself. She suppressed the conflicting impulses within her to be able to answer him."W-Wayne—"Leigh couldn't finish her sentence as Wayne suddenly kissed her. She was taken aback in those moments, finding it hard to believe that their conversation had turned into a passionate kiss. But when she noticed that Wayne had closed his eyes while savoring the connection of their lips, she involuntarily closed her eyes too."Hmmm." Leigh unintentionally let out a soft moan. Wayne's hand continued its motion on her thigh, accompanying the fervent kisses they were sharing."Tell me... you're not going to work... hmmm..." Wayne murmured between
