27M I R A N D A "Ben?" I call out as I entered Hugo's penthouse.The three maids quickly ran to the main door and welcomed me."Where's Ben?" I ask them."He's already asleep inside the bedroom ma’am." One answers as she smiles at me.I smile back,, "Thank you so much for babysitting him for me."They smile at me and started leaving the penthouse quietly. I begin walking up to where Ben was and he was beautifully sleeping on top of this massive bed. I watch him sleep as I sit down next to him, I find it hard to wake him up because he looked too comfortable over it. I push his hair off his face and I'm hurting for him. He doesn't even know his real father is, yet Hugo’s already pushing us away so easily.Coward. If you have told Hugo earlier then this would not have had happened. He would have had been a father to Ben years ago if only you told him.Selfish. You have no right to hurt Miranda, you have been so selfish all these years. You have been so selfish for hiding everything on

28.5She continues, “And besides we have a lot of guests.”I nod, “I see. You’re right. But we can always ask the baker to make the same cake but bigger one and--”“Hugo honey.” She turns her attention to me and looks at me in the eye, “This one will look very good on our wedding. Don't you think hon?" She asks,I stare at the photo of the cake again and it was a three layer cake but the price does not really matter because I only want what’s best for her. Yet I think she is overdoing this wedding with huge cakes.I wanted to have an intimate wedding where we only invite our families and a few close friends but she wanted an extravagant wedding. She keeps telling me that she wants our wedding to be the wedding of the year and there is really nothing wrong with that but I wished she wouldn’t have just overdone it.I don't know what's inside Audrey's head right now and why she's ordering too much foods for just one day and inviting so many guests who are not even close to us as a couple

29.5“I was so mad at Hugo because he knew about me and Audrey, yet he still pursued her. I was so angry at him that I almost punched him in the face a couple of times if the other lads didn't stop me."My hands cover my mouth."He knew I loved Audrey and he knew I was hurt when she left me. But….” He sighs while staring at his glass of wine. “I didn't know he was also secretly liking her when I was still dating Audrey."“That’s fucked up.” I say breathlessly."It was. Really, fucked up. He actually forgot the bro code. Bros before hoes." Landon laughs humorlessly.“I’m so sorry.” Those were the only words that left my mouth."Audrey was then offered by Victoria's Secret to become an angel and to model for them. It has been her dream and she used to tell me that before. Since she started dating Hugo, she's been getting even more famous and wealthy. She had runway offers from left and right and she loved it. She loved the fame that she got when she went public with Hugo."I shake my he

30.5I just can't leave like this while she's still mad at me. And I can't do anything to make things okay because she doesn't want to talk to me. She doesn't want me to reach her.Even so, I grab my phone and searched for Miranda's name as if it would do anything if I stare at her. I stare at it and thinking about trying to give her a call but then I know she wont pick it up seeing my name.I sit back down on my bed and contemplating about the fact if I should text her or call her. Either of the two, she won’t respond to both. I stand up the next second and walked out of my place, getting on the elevator and riding my car after.If she is not going to talk to me through the phone then I will drive to Alfonso’s to talk to her personally.I wanna see her before I leave New York.When I arrive at Alfonso's, I quickly scan through the waitresses and waiters who were staring at me but I couldn't find Miranda."Where is she?" I murmur to myself."Mr. Saintclare."I spin myself around and s

31.5All those times, I've expected too much from Hugo but it just absolutely meant nothing to him because he was taken. Two months of not seeing Hugo Saintclare or his shadow or anything about him, I got back on my track with the help of Landon. I got better. I'm still living my life.That's right Miranda, you don't need a half-assed lying Hugo.Dating Landon for months now, I've eventually learned to like Landon too. I mean who am I kidding? I have longed for him since I was a teenager but getting to know the real him, made me feel so glad that he allowed me to see the other side of him that he does not show other people. He loves Ben and that's the most important thing for me from a suitor.“Look at this cookie.” Landon shows Ben the halved cookie while I watch them in secret as they lounge inn the living room. “There’s one half of it and here’s the other.”Ben nods.“If this is the last cookie in the entire world, who would you give this half and the other one?” Landon asks.Ben
