[GILLIAN POV] I don't know what to do to her. She was so drunk. I held her, taking her to her room, and we almost stumbled together on our way. What the hell is she doing to herself? Drinking this much and not considering everybody else. What might these people think about her? She's our boss, The daughter, and the heir of the CEO. She should at least look out for her actions. "Hey! Why did you bring me here? The party is not over yet! Damn!" My brows curved, watching her rant. She's indeed out of her mind. I was about to leave her alone and even turn my back, but then I hesitated to go through. I sighed in irritation. This girl has been giving me headaches since I was transferred to her department. "That Gillian! Damn, girl! Who is she to dare to hurt me? Hmm.." Gwen shouted my name as if I wasn't there. I felt guilty as a criminal, but what should I do? I can't give her what she wants. That may not happen either, even if years pass. It may take like forever. "I hate it, but I

"Hmmm. In all fairness, doubtless. Your taste was still high, like Mount Everest as it is. She's an angel, Gwen. So she has the power to reject you. Uh.." "Withdraw, my dear friend. It's not a total rejection. We had sex, you know. She was just not ready yet. From there, I know deep down to the bottom of her heart I have gained some space so far." She looks back, mocking me while stepping closer. "Not all the time. Sex has to be meaningful. It can be nothing, my dear friend." In her cruel words, I don't know if she's on my side. "So going back in your favor.. You want me to flirt with you? to make her jealous? Is that it?" I nodded, confirming her understanding. "But what would I get in return if we succeeded?!" I smiled. What a clever girl. "Okay.. I will roam you around. Let's traverse the Philippines—my expense." Her brows raised, maybe a sign of a yes. "Alright.. excellent offer. Count me in then.." She said as we both laughed in victory. "Eloise... This shouldn't fail, ple

[GWEN STACY]"You should have seen her, Gwen. She was so puzzled and seemed to have no idea what to do. Oh God, that is incredibly fun." We are sitting in my living area drinking our tea this delightful morning. The excitement on Eloise's face was so perceptible, Her cheeks lifting as her lips parted way for an uncontrollable smile. As for me.. There's a lot to process. "I don't know, Eloise. I have a bad feeling about this. Shall we stop? I don't think so lying is good in the first place. We are tricking her. What's worst.. pretending to be something that isn't real." The uncertainty is galling, and my nerves resurface, making me fidget. "Hey! Calm down, sissy. We are doing this for Gillian, remember? You are helping her to move on with her past. She was locked up, Gwen. The only reason she's not giving you a chance. The hindrance that stops her from seeing the other side of the world. She's in the loop, revolving around her ex flurry of memories." Eloise was so freaking confide

"Gwen! What happened?!" I slowly looked at where the voice came from. Gillian sprinted over and quickly grabbed my bleeding hand. Suddenly I felt nothing. My eyes were focused on her, and I forgot my aching hand. My heart seems to be captured by her alluring worried face. She promptly took out her handkerchief and violently tied my hand to stop the bleeding. Next, Gillian gently supported me and led me to the nearby clinic. The staff attended to us quickly when we arrived. Gillian never left my side, and what happened to me was like a blessing in disguise. While I was being treated, Gillian's eyes never left my hand. The wrinkle on her forehead remains, which puzzles me. "Are you worried?!" I suddenly asked, so she looked at me. "What a stupid question is that? Of course, I'm worried." She answered, still a trace of concern. "Is that mean I'm important to you?" Gillian lifted again to face me. A moment of silence before she opens her mouth. "You're my boss." Sudden dismay kn

[GWEN STACY] These past few days, I have been feeling down. I don't know what to do or think. It feels like losing interest in anything. And so, I decided to take a break and far away from everything messing up my mind. Eloise knows about my plan, and I asked her too to tell Gillian the truth. I'm ready for the consequences of Gillian getting mad at me for lying and pretending. I was about to depart, but then I forgot something, leading me to return to where I sat a while ago. And then Gillian was running towards me. "I have to go now, Gillian. In the meantime, while I'm not around, take care of yourself, okay.." "But how long you'll be away?" It made me feel giddy as she wanted to know when I would be coming back. "I'm not sure, Gillian." "But at least, can you update me?!" My lips stretched into a smile that reached my eyes through her words."You want me to update you?!" I asked in disbelief. My eyes narrowed, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling broadly. "Y
