'Maybe, Jo should have been scolded,' Adriel said in her mind. 'I can't believe I even thought of scolding Jo,' Zeth smiled to himself. The two of them were currently hauling their bags to their shared room. Zeth opened the door and looked around the room. "Of course, there's only one bed," Adriel muttered under her breath as soon as she saw the room's composition. She feels like she's in a romantic comedy movie where the two people are forced to sleep together in the same room on the same bed. She turned towards Zeth and asked, "Have you asked Cedric if he wants to change bedrooms?" "I have," Zeth lied. He definitely didn't ask him. "He didn't want to switch. Wait, you'll gladly room with Cedric instead of me?" he asked with furrowed eyebrows. Adriel sighed and ignored his question. She also asked Jo if she could take her spot instead, but it turns out she's rooming with three other directors, and they would be discussing the changes for the photoshoot tonight. "Maybe, you

The group photoshoot had just finished, and Melanie and Samantha were still bitter about what happened. Because of that, they couldn't do very well on the shoot, making them look like backup models for Adriel and Aria. Adriel was looking through the photos with Zeth while Aria went to get a bottle of water. Her eyes lit up when she saw Cedric drinking a bottle of water nearby. "Hey," she said, causing him to turn around. "Did your photoshoot go well?" Cedric smiled widely, causing Aria to go into confusion. The last time she conversed with him, he was very reserved, and he didn't even smile at her once. Was he just in a bad mood back then, or did he turn into a completely different person? "Hey, pretty," he cheerfully said. "Yes, our photoshoot did go well." Aria's heart jumped in joy because he called her "pretty," but she still couldn't hide her confusion. The guy in front of him doesn't seem like Cedric at all. "Umm, that's good to hear," she awkwardly said. "I don't think

"Kayden?""Adriel," Kayden said, surprised. "What are you doing here?"She moved away from him since she already knew about the stealing incident that happened between their companies."Umm, just for work," she warily said.Kayden noticed the change in the way that she was treating him, and he knew the exact reason behind it. So, he put on an innocent front and acted like he didn't know anything."Are you okay?" he asked in a gentle tone.She pursed her lips together. "Yeah. I better get going now," she said and attempted to leave. However, Kayden held onto her wrist."Why do I feel like I did something wrong?" Kayden asked.Adriel turned around and looked him in the eyes. "I don't know, Kayden. Maybe you should ask yourself that," she deadpanned.Kayden frowned. "W—What do you mean? I don't remember ever doing anything.""Well, since you don't remember," Adriel said as she removed his grip from her wrist. "Let me remind you. You stole Gray entertainment's ideas for their new collecti

If this was any other circumstance, Adriel would have been shocked by Zeth's sudden action. However, as of the moment, she couldn't think of anything other than Zeth's lips—and how she wanted his lips on top of hers once again. "There, is that good?" Zeth asked in a strained voice. He's using every nerve in his body not to kiss Adriel once again. "Mmmh," Adriel fervently nodded. She raised her arms up and wrapped them around Zeth's neck, bringing him closer to her. Zeth’s eyes widened in surprise by her sudden action. "More, please," she said. "Too hot—need water," she incoherently said. "Wait," Zeth squeezed out. He broke away from her hug to get another glass of water. He sat down on the bed and once again placed the cup over his lips, taking a sip from the coo

Adriel excitedly tapped her foot as she looked outside the car window. Their three-day shoot was already finished, and she couldn’t be more excited to go home. Although she really enjoyed her time at the beach, except for the incident with Kayden, she couldn’t wait to go home to see a certain little one. This is the very first time that they’ve been apart for so long, and she doesn’t think she can do it again.Zeth chuckled. “Why are you so excited, Angel?”Adriel looked at him with one eyebrow raised. “To see our son, of course! Why? Are you telling me that you’re not excited to see him?”Zeth's eyes widened in surprise. “No, no, that’s not what I meant, Angel.”Adriel chuckled. “I’m joking,” she said. “But I really miss Zenon. I can’t wait to shower his squishy cheeks with kisses once we get home.”Zeth smiled. “Me too. Want to go out later in the afternoon?”“Where to?” Adriel asked.“I don’t know. Where does Zenon want to go to?”“Well, the last time I asked him, he wanted to join
