"Are you willing to get married to me, even though we're not in love each other?" Eliza did a follow-up question."Well, there's nothing to lose, right? Grandma Miranda wants the both of us to be okay. And well, let's see what will happen to our marriage." Quiel replied."You don't have someone else that you love? I mean, don't you have someone else special like a girlfriend or something?" Eliza bombarded him with numerous questions."For your first question, no, I am not in love with someone else. Secondly, I don't have someone special and as a result, I don't have a girlfriend. And last but not the least, I'm a very much single man. I'm a bachelor from head to toe." Quiel responded to all of Eliza's questions. Eliza became speechless after hearing all of those things from him. She doesn't know what to say anymore, and she is extremely overwhelmed with the sudden turn of events."You don't have to make a decision right away, Eliza. For the meantime, please stay here at the farm, and

The next day. Eliza slowly opened her eyes. She realized that it was already morning, and she woke up really late because it was already wee hours in the morning when she and Quiel decided to leave the party and go back home. The staff at the Montecillo farm prepared a simple and enjoyable party for her and Quiel to celebrate their engagement. She made lots of great friends, and she really enjoyed eating and talking with them. It was really an amazing night for her, and she's extremely thankful to all of the staff. Eliza decided to get up from her bed, so that she can start with the household chores eventhough it's bit too late...She was slowly making her way towards the kitchen but she suddenly stopped when she heard a woman's voice."I'm really glad to see you again after so many years, Quiel." =================================Eliza quickly hid herself at a nearby wall and secretly listened to the conversation. She saw a certain woman who is sitting comfortably at the one of

The night of their engagement party finally arrives. Their engagement party is nothing grand, but just a simple one. The party doesn't require any RSVP, the guests are not required to wear any fancy gowns or suit and ties, and there's no other special guests. Quiel and Eliza's engagement party theme is just an outdoor bonfire, in their usual and everyday clothings, with beers and varieties of food that is freshly-harvested from the Montecillo Farm. They have decided to do a boodle fight, eating grilled fish, pork meat, boiled vegetables. They also have different types of fruits just like mangoes, bananas, papayas and many other else. The workers at the Montecillo Farm are eagerly waiting for the newly-engaged couple to go out to the vast garden where the party is going to be held... "You look so beautiful tonight, Eliza." Quiel smilingly told his future wife, as he is escorting her down the stairs. Eliza decided to wear a one-piece white summer dress, paired with simple pair of sa

Eliza noticed that Eliza and Celina are seated next. She couldn't help but to think that Celina planned all of this all along. And because of that, a feeling of jealousy is starting to crawl inside her heart...Mrs. Mayer started to lead a thanksgiving prayer, then afterwards, they started enjoying their dinner.Celina's taking care of everything for Quiel during dinner, and Eliza's feeling so upset because she feels like Celina's overstepping her boundaries. She is acting as if she's Quiel's fiancee'."Would you like to have an avocado salad, Eliza? I tell you, this is really delicious." Eduard suddenly offered.And before Eliza could say anything else, Quiel suddenly spoke beside her, while looking dead serious."My fiancée is allergic to avocados, Eduard. It's dangerous for her to eat it." he suddenly spoke, while giving Eduard a meaningful look."I'm sorry Eduard, but Quiel is right. I'm allergic to avocados." Eliza nodded in retu

Quiel and Eliza arrived home safely. He is currently laying Eliza in her bed. Once he made sure that she's comfortable enough, he decided to say goodnight to her."Goodnight, Eliza. I'll see you again tomorrow." he gently whispers, while staring at the sleeping Eliza.He was about to get up and leave, but he was taken by surprise when Eliza suddenly grabbed his hand."Please don't leave me alone." Eliza was groaning in her sleep.Quiel worriedly stares at her, observing her if she is having a nightmare. He clasped her hand firmly, making her feel that nothing's going to harm her, she's not alone and everything will be okay...At the same time, he is having this urge to kiss those red and kissable lips of hers!"Dear heavens, please help me from this temptation." Quiel whispered, trying his best to control himself.Quiel's heart skipped a beat when he saw a tear flowing from Eliza's eyes and unto her cheek. And with that, Quiel can't f
