CHAPTER 12: Bleeding Love?Heart’s POV:I can’t believe that I am waking up again on this damn couch. I stood up and grabbed my phone from the table. I turned it on. “Should I go to work now?” I asked myself. I just sighed and shook my head. “Yes, without work, I won’t be able to pay Dimitri’s hospital bills.” Scarlet thought.I went to the bathroom and took a bath. After taking a bath, I got dressed, wore my eyeglasses and blow dried my hair. I was looking at herself in front of the mirror as I tied my hair up to a messy bun. I am so lazy to fix this bun, I am always ugly and I can’t even understand why Dimitri thinks I am beautiful. The make up in the bar was so amazing though. It felt like it was not me. Yes, it was not me. It was Scarlet Heart. I am Hearcille Reina, the plain jane. After fixing everything, I took a bus and then took another MRT ride. Yes, riding on the train to get to work, during rush hour. This is my life everyday. And, today I am late because of the decision m

CHAPTER 14: The First NightNo one’s POV:Heart went down from the stage and she was standing next to it. The young businessman walked towards her and approached her. He is pure American in his mid 20’s, has a nice body and he is tall. Heart was feeling nervous as their eyes met. “My name is Caleb Wheeler, let’s have a great night.” He introduced himself as he offered his hand for a handshake, looking into her eyes. Heart smiled and nodded. She raised her arm and grabbed his hand to do a handshake with him. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Wheeler. I am Scarlet Heart.” She responded. Caleb shook his head. “Um, just call me Caleb so that I can be comfortable.” He refused to be called with his last name. Heart remembered that he is American. ‘Oh, yeah Americans prefer being called by their first name. Unlike here in Japan, we must be close or considered to be friends for us to call each other by our first name.’ Heart thought.“Okay, Caleb. Thank you so much.” Heart thanked him. They went to the

CHAPTER 16: Back To Her Real Self AgainHeart’s POV:I opened my eyes and now I am on the bed. I then saw a thick blanket wrapped on my body. My eyes widened and remembered what I did last night. I then checked my body inside the thick blanket and I am fully naked. There was no one around me when I looked around. “Mr. Wheeler already left for sure.” I mumbled to myself. I then stood up with the thick blanket wrapped on me then saw those bills on the top of the side table. I was so shocked and the thick blanket fell on the floor as I cupped my mouth. “Oh my!” I gasped.I then moved towards the table and grabbed the bills. This is such a big amount! Mr. Wheeler is so generous! I can’t believe this. With just one night, I earned more than I receive annually. Georgia is my life saver! But of course, this is for Dimitri, his hospital bills are really expensive. I must give them the deposit now. So, aside from this tip I got from last night’s work, I will also be receiving a paycheck from t

CHAPTER 18: Booking HerCullen’s POV:For three months, I had been with the executives and my assistant as they helped me a lot to be the perfect CEO of Lee Department Store. Now, I am with them in this conference room, sitting on a chair, facing this long table with our shareholders. My grandfather as the chairman was leading the meeting, I am just sitting next to me. My mom is a shareholder and she owns our other companies, such as hotels, resorts, etc. I am really sleepy. I kept on yawning but my determination and anger towards Charlotte Takeda led me here. And my promise to my late dad.After the meeting, my mom left right away. Grandfather also left. But the other executives and shareholders approached me. “Hey, Cullen, tomorrow will be the turnover and the announcement but we all have here the so-called ritual.” Someone put an arm on me as if we are close, but duh we are not. I gave him a weird look. “What are you saying? Let go of me.” I put away his arm from my shoulder and t

CHAPTER 20: Can’t Get Enough Of YouNo one’s POV:After the sex, Heart rolled down on the space next to Cullen. She was lying down next to him, panting while looking at the ceiling. Cullen then grabbed the blanket to wrap their bodies. He then flipped his body sidewards and then hugged her. He closed his eyes and put his head near her chest. Heart’s eyes widened. ‘This is the first time that a client cuddles with me.’ Heart thought. Cullen then hugged her tighter. “I really enjoyed our sex, Scarlet Heart. To be honest, I thought I would just be drinking and then sleep at the VIP seat because I can’t stand girls anymore but the moment I saw you..” Cullen said and he then opened his eyes and looked up into Heart’s eyes. Heart was looking at him.“It changed. Now, I can’t take my eyes off of you. I knew it. That I will be needing you tonight.” Cullen confessed. Heart gulped and then awkwardly smiled. ‘Maybe he is this kind of person. Nothing to get serious though. Besides, this is just a
