Jessica maintained her pantry like a professional chef. If Samuel wanted to have steak for dinner, then it was steak for dinner, and Marcus was grateful that Jessica didn’t make a fuss when he took some premium slices for his dinner with Alicia. “How would you like your steak, medium or well done?” Marcus asked his guest to relax and feel at home while he prepared their dinner. “Well done,” Alicia answered. “But I can help you with the preparation,” she offered as she imagined what would Marcus look like in an apron. She couldn’t explain it in detail but imagining Marcus’ using his hands to create something delicious turned her mind towards the other things that his hand could be capable of doing…, especially on how to pleasure a woman. “Thanks, but I can manage,” Marcus said. He was grilling the steak when he realized that he forgot to take the wine Jessica prepared for him. “Hmmm, Alicia, I think I need your help,” he called her. “Sure, just tell me what to do.” Alicia

After their mother’s birthday blast, Lilian and Daniella decided to explore the province of Bohol as their first trip together as single mothers. Together, they made a vow not to involve themselves with any son of Eve and just focused on their daughters. With just a backpack of things, they took an airconditioned bus to the town of Argao where they could ride a ferry to Loon Bohol. Daniella has made an arrangement with Hailey Tours for the car rental with the driver as they would need one to explore every town in Bohol and not just the famous tourist destinations. It would have been nice to travel leisurely with the money they got, but Lilian insisted that they should do it as ordinary tourists would. Argao was just approximately a two-hour drive from Oslob and there were regular ferries in Argao. “Are you excited Lil?” Daniella asked as they were on Ceres Bus to Argao. “A little, and a bit scared,” Lilian responded. When Daniella suggested the trip, she agreed as she needed

Gerald was grateful to Paloma for telling him where Daniella went to travel with Lilian. He planned to ask her childhood friend on a date without risking their friendship. To like a stranger was preferable to like a close friend. Growing up, he had no idea that love or romance would blossom from their long friendship, although, it was still a one-sided kind of love. Everyone was suspicious of his feelings towards Daniella but why was she so clueless? Could it be because the woman didn’t see him as a man, but just as an extension of her family? He had been thinking about it carefully before he decided to try his luck and he was prepared for the consequences and embarrassment. “Fancy meeting you here, Ella. I can see that this is not a business trip,” he said observation while staring at Daniella’s daughter who was sleeping in the baby carrier. “Yeah, nice to see you, Gerald. What are you doing in Bohol?” The last time she saw him was at Paloma’s party and he didn’t stay fo

Gerald was surprised when Lizzy suddenly wanted to meet him and he couldn’t let his chance pass. However, he wanted to see Daniella first before going back to Cebu where Lizzy was. He called her on the phone and invited all of them to have lunch with him at Agotata, a coffee shop in Bohol Beach Club that served food and drinks throughout the day. When he arrived in Agotata, the women were not there yet so he went ahead to order a variety of dishes that they would surely love. Gerald ordered a chicken kebab meal that came with salad, fries, and rice. Pinakbet and garlic were also ordered, along with the clubhouse sandwich which was Daniella’s favorite. The restaurant recommended their burger so he ordered it as well. There was a lot to choose from and he had to ask for recommendations from the staff she recommended the fish with avocado. The meal came with mashed potato and salad. The steak was also ordered as it was also suggested by the same staff. Before all of his orders w

Lilian squealed in horror when Alexander carried her on his shoulders like her weight of sixty kilograms meant nothing to him. “I’ll scream,” she warned him if she won’t let her down. “Then scream,” he challenged her but he doubt that Lilian would dare to make a scene at the resort, and as expected Lilian kept quiet…but bit his ear instead. Alexander screamed at the pain but didn’t stop walking towards the car he rented and put down the woman in the backseat. “Behave or you will regret it!” He warned Lilian before he went into the driver’s seat and drove away. Ten minutes later, Lilian walked inside BE Grand Resort with Alexander at his side. “Is this kidnapping?” She inquired. “Did I drag you here?” Alexander asked. “No, but you threatened me!” She said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear while inside the elevator. “Did I? Was it a threat when I told you I will ravish you anywhere if you’ll misbehave?” Alexander whispered the words to her
