It was clear to her mind the words she got to hear from him. The agreement they made might be ended when the woman he loves said yes to him. Casey and Niccolo weren't lovers. They didn't love each other. They're helping each other and it's clear to them. Casey needs to accept the truth. She'll leave him when the time comes. It's just temporary living with him, but he promised to help her especially in her studies. She'll continue her studies soon. "Do you want to go to the cinema and watch movies, huh?" Niccolo asked her when they'd finished eating dinner. She shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. How about you, huh?" Casey replied. Niccolo frowns. "It depends on you, Casey. If you say yes, we'll go to the cinema tonight and watch some movies," he answered. "Do you want, huh?" Casey sighed deeply before she speaks to him. He's waiting for her answer. "Okay. It's too early for us to go back to your condominium, so we can go to the cinema and watch some movies," she said, agreeing with

Casey and Niccolo left the birthday party before eleven o'clock in the evening. The birthday party is about to end when they decided to leave the venue. They're both tired when they'd arrived at the condominium. "Thank God we're done, Niccolo," Casey said. She slumped herself on the couch. Niccolo gasped as well."We're not yet done, Casey..." he said. "We're just starting this agreement we made. A lot of things might happen soon and you should be ready for it." Casey closed her eyes for a few minutes before she speaks to him. "We really don't know what will happen to us the next day. You'd already introduced me as your girlfriend to your parents, friends, relatives, and other family friends," she said, combing her hair using her fingers. "Did you notice something earlier with them, huh?" Niccolo sighed heavily."Nothing, Casey. I had noticed nothing from them. They're happy too. But my friends are quite surprised when we introduced you as my girlfriend. And I think I need to explain

She treated her friend eating lunch in a fast-food chain food. Cora was happy. It's four o'clock in the afternoon, but she's still with her friend Cora. She's enjoying the time with her friend. They talked a lot of things. But suddenly, her cell phone begins ringing. "Someone is calling you, Casey. You must answer it immediately. Maybe it's important," Cora said. She gasped loudly and picked up her cell phone reluctantly. She knows who's calling her, and it's none other than Niccolo. "Who's calling you?""Niccolo is calling me, Cora," she replied. Her eyes widened. "Oh, really? You should answer him, Casey. Don't wait for a few seconds before you answer it. He's important to you, right?" Cora answered. Casey grimaced as she heard her friend answer. "I'll answer his call, don't worry, Cora," she said. Casey stood up and pressed the button to answer his call. Niccolo asked her if she's already at his condominium. He's on his way to his condominium. Casey sighed heavily before she opens

Niccolo sat on the couch inside of his dad's office and sighed deeply. His dad is busy in signing the papers on his table, but he's aware with his presence. "You're always busy, dad..." He broke the silence in his dad's office. Fernando lifts his head and stops signing the papers on his table. He opens his mouth to answer his son. For him, it's an insult for always being a busy person from his son who understands nothing with their companies."W-what? What did you say? I'm always busy?" Fernando asked him. He pouted his lips and gave his dad a quick nod."Yes, dad. You're always busy. Is that true? I know. I can see it every day. Don't deny it, please," Niccolo answered his dad. Fernando raised his eyebrows to his son."I don't deny it, Niccolo. Yes, it's true. I'm always busy here in our companies. You must learn how to manage our companies, and that's why I requested you to come here often because I'll teach everything I know. Sooner or later, you'll be the one who would sit on this

"Where did you come from, Casey?" Niccolo's mom asked her while they're eating dinner. Casey and Niccolo exchanged looks. Niccolo is about to answer his mom's question to her, but Casey opened her mouth immediately. She was asked, so she should be the one who could possibly answer it."I came from the province, Mrs. Marquez," she said. Helena nodded."But where are your parents, huh?" She asked."My mother died six years ago, but my father is—" "Her father is in the province. He's busy with their farm. Her parents owned a farm in the province," Niccolo answered when she stopped talking to his mom. He continued talking to her. He thought she would tell the truth to his parents about her life when she mentioned her mother died six years ago. It wasn't the things they had planned to say to his parents. Niccolo gave her a confused look before he faced his parents again. Casey bit her lips and nods slowly."My parents owned a farm in our province. My father is the only one who taken care
