Aviena's POV "How long is your business trip?" I asked River when he was in front of me. He didn't even tell me he had a business trip. He suddenly left without saying goodbye. They even said he took Marissa to New York. "Isn't it a basic decency to inform me?" I asked him while combing my hair. He was busy typing with his laptop. He just came home but he's already busy with his work. They said he went abroad for work but now that he looks like he has a pile of work, I can't believe it. "We said that there's no asking about whereabouts," he said with his eyes still on the laptop. I can't help but frown there. “I'm not asking about your whereabouts, whatever else you do in New York is okay. But still inform me where you at so that if anyone asks, I know. ” I could see the irritation on his face because of what I said. He seems angry at me for being talkative now. It's just that I don't know how to answer people when they're asking me especially now that I'm so busy because of his g

Aviena's POVI'm done getting ready to go outside for the meeting with the wedding planner."We're going to meet the wedding planner today, Big Sister," I said from the other line because Big Sister keeps on asking.“Alright. Just let me know. Won't you even invite me there to your house?" she asked me. Recently, Big Sister keep on asking me to invite her to come here to River's mansion but I couldn't tell River yet. He was often busy at work and we were irritated with each other.“Yes, Big Sis. I'll invite you when I have already talked with River. ” She didn't say anything as if he was no longer happy with me. As I said, it's really only a month for her to be kind. Look at her pestering me now. After we talked, I went down. I thought Veron will be the one coming with me because she's the one I've been with these past few days but my lips parted when River was waiting for me outside. We were in the same room but he couldn't even tell me. Anyway, he doesn't even sleep there. I'm sure

Aviena's POVSilence enveloped the two of us which he also immediately broke because I did not speak. I was still surprised by his sudden call.“My family will go here. My grandfather will probably go to ask about you,” he said so I just smiled to myself. Right. What do I even expect? Do I really expect him to wait for me? That he will call me because he misses me even though his beloved Marissa is there."Alright… I'll go…" I said and didn't wait for him to say anything, I immediately turned off the call. I don't want to expect from him anymore.What did they even do? They probably spend their luxury time together. I haven't heard on television that his girlfriend is different or anything so I don't think he did anything to tarnish my name. I’m just pretty sure he did something. I just smiled at the thought before shaking my head.I don’t have to care about that anymore."Who's that, Big Sister?" Marieta asked me when I returned to the table.“Hmm, I think I need to go back to Manila

Aviena's POV“Ocean! Here is the gift!” Gwen’s excited scream enveloped us so I couldn’t help but smirk. I am not afraid of their dare. They will just probably ask me to drink 1 bottle of drinks or something.They made me sit in a chair in the front so I couldn’t avoid frowning but when a big box came in I seemed to know what is it. This isn't my first time at a bachelorette party. Most of the time I am also invited to some party somehow.I promise River that I won't stain his name, especially in public but if I go now, they will probably say that I'm a killjoy or anything that they can say to me. I couldn’t help but sigh.Soon the three men came out. One of the guys goes to the girls and the two of those gifts go to me. I tried to avert my eyes. One thing I'm really sure of, Ocean and Gwen will really receive a scold from River. One of the instructions of that one is we party without a man. He said he shouldn't see a man here.After the dance ended, I was already looking at the floor

Aviena's POV"Of course not!" Saying that feels like saying that I like him too.I was very annoyed when I entered the room for me here on the yacht but we also left immediately because we had already reached the island. I ignored him.He used to be the one taking pictures of me but because my pride didn't like it, I didn't even talk to him. I just ask for favors from the crew. He's just watching me. He's not even doing anything but my blood was already boiling because of him. He's really annoying.“I made you a buko shake,” he said before giving me the buko shake that he have. I just raised an eyebrow at him. There was still a smile on his lips but not the annoying one now. Smile you will fall if you're heart is so fragile. Annoying. I was just sipping on the buko shake he provided but I almost choked when he took a straw and we were just in the same glass."What? You are so corny, ah?” I asked but I couldn't help my smile now. This one really knows how to get me.We are just like d
