AMAYA'S POVThe moment Hugo got defeated with twenty billion dollars as I tried to stop him before it even reached that point, I stood up and walked away from them. I was planning to stay in the car until Hugo came down when I heard Max's voice following me."Amaya! Where are you going?" His voice was getting nearer each time I took a step and it was making me more anxious about facing him. But no, I have to.I was on my way to the elevator but I stopped at the hall to stand up for myself."What the hell are you doing here Max? Why now of all times? I am this close to forgetting you!" I shoved my two fingers to his face, mimicking a small space between them angrily. I couldn't hold it any longer."That's the point! I don't want you to forget about me!" He moved my hand down and held my shoulders as he moved it closer to himself. I was stiff for a minute when I was caught by his eyes but I remembered the day when I was about to tell him the news about Flynn. That day I received a diffe

MAX'S POV It was astounding news when I found out that Amaya sent divorce papers to Hugo. It gave me hope and this time, I'm going to make it worth it. She's better than the billions I spent on all the properties here in New York. Though it may seem a little bit different from LA I could get used to it. I'll have my woman tour me anyway. Everything wouldn't be possible without a little help.With that, I had a great morning to greet. I smiled at every person I encountered in the hall as I walked toward Ace's condo unit that I bought for him here in New York. As I opened the door with the bags of groceries in my arms I saw him playing video games already. It has been a part of his daily routine and I just let him be."Hey Ace, you know that it is expected for the police to call me since I was there in their operation right? What should I say?" I asked him as I walked past him to get to the kitchen. It was still early for him to be gaming but I didn't care because everything was running

THIRD PERSON'S POV After the incident in Galiviosa. Reporters were camping right in front of each building the Galiviosa owns waiting for a chance to interview either the employees or the board members about the incident. The news immediately spread all over New York City as soon as the public saw a group of police cars and ambulances in front of Galiviosa. Which later on brought in the CEO, Amaya Wescott, and Francoise Lefebvre, the Heiress of the Oasis with both having severe injuries. Now, everyone was wondering about what could be the things that happened inside that got them hurt so badly like that. Not to mention that Miss Lefebvre has a metal stuck on her belly. But what triggered everyone's wonder the most was Mr. Max Howards, the CEO of Howards Inc., who was present in the incident. The public's conclusions were most likely that maybe the two ladies were fighting over Mr. Howards but then others defended that Miss Amaya was already married to Mr. Hugo Lefebvre, the

MAX'S POV I didn't have any idea what it could be and I just blurted out without thinking about the consequences. Though will there be? Her eyes widened after I asked her those words and she was speechless for a while. It made her stand off the sofa and walk around her office. I couldn't guess what she was thinking so I just stayed silent. Nervous about how she would answer me. It was not the best thing to ask since we just saw each other again but I don't want to be late as well. Back then, when I found out that she suddenly got married to Hugo, I was very upset that I kept forcing Ace to find out how it all happened and if it was just a rumor that people couldn't get over because they were popular businessmen. But then, Vanique called and said it was true. I can't risk that ever happening again. "It's fine if you need time to think about it. I can wait." I said to her while I slowly wore back my clothes. I also took her shirt and hung it on her back since she was as naked as me. B

AMAYA’S POV Tyler started stuttering when Max arrived in the room. He tried explaining his ideas to Max while I sat and stayed quiet. I was in awe looking at Max negotiating with the theme of reconsidering the things I like and dislike. It was fascinating to look at if only he was not talking to this douche who was playing pretend well. I just don’t get the idea why he would tend to act like that. “Amaya’s not the colorful flower type, she’s more on focusing on one or two colors and their family. Though gold is too luxurious. We tend to keep it simple. The guest might get intimidated.” Max sounded so intelligent that it makes me sound dumb. Is this how it feels to recognize my love for someone and not doubt it for once? As we finished our meeting, Tyler left as if nothing odd happened before Max’s arrival. Max also excused himself since he has other appointments he needed to attend. It was easier for us to understand each other because of the same field of work. Yet, there’s someth
