The road is quiet, perhaps the night is getting deeper. A motorcycle parked in front of a convenience store, and from the motorcycle emerged a girl named Verania Portier. As she took off her helmet, her beautiful face appeared, with her hair flowing after being freed from the helmet.But if you sense this girl, you'll know she's not just an ordinary girl. Even just by her attire, you can tell. She's wearing military boots and black pants, with a gray racerback top covered by a leather jacket. Her posture exudes a certain toughness.After arranging her motorbike, she went straight into the convenience store and grabbed a gallon of ice cream from the freezer, taking it to the counter. After paying, she hurriedly left the store and gasped when her phone in her pocket rang. It was her friend calling.The caller was Ares Montero, the son of the current Mayor who was running for Governor of their province. "Oh, you called? It's late," the girl said gently, but weariness could be heard in he

Vera's Point of View "Mayor, uh, I mean Tito, does Madam Charlotte know about this?" I asked, referring to his wife."Just call her Tita too. Anyway, she doesn't know either. Only I and your colleagues at work, and now you, are aware of this," Tito Stan explained."Oh, I see. How did you tell Tita Charlotte about the fake wedding?" I asked curiously."At first, she was hesitant, but eventually agreed because she said Ares is getting older, and he needs to meet someone he can marry. So I told her that this day is when the woman I chose will come. I didn't mention a name because I thought it would be someone else. I only found out earlier that it was you, hija," Tito Stan said, nodding at me.Tita Charlotte came out first, wearing casual home attire. As soon as she spotted me, she furrowed her brow, clearly wondering why she saw me here.Well, she knows me too because we're friends with my parents, and her son Ares is also my friend."Verania? You're the one Stanley chose?" Tita Charlo

Vera’s Point of ViewAs I said, I went outside and kept scanning the surroundings. It was safe around here, no suspicious activities.While I was gazing at the hospital entrance and exit, someone called my name, and I nearly jumped in surprise.At first, I thought it was Ares, but as the person approached me, I felt my palms getting sweaty, not out of fear, but out of nervousness and inexplicable feelings. It was Alder, my friend who is also a doctor, and I just remembered that he works at this hospital too."Alder!" I greeted him with surprise, trying to calm myself."What are you doing here?" he asked, wondering. I quickly glanced at the car. The windows were tinted, but he seemed to understand what I was trying to convey."A new mission?" he answered his own question, and I nodded."Who?" he inquired further.I jumped in surprise as our car honked.I jumped even more when the window on Ares' side opened."Verania, do your job! Clara is here!" he called out, pointing to a woman walk

Vera’s Point of ViewAs I opened the door, I was greeted by an array of clothing neatly arranged, each outfit seemingly tailored to its proper place."What style are you aiming for?" I asked, peeking at the branded polo shirts one by one. You really feel like saying 'I wish I had it all' when you see Ares' clothes and belongings up close."That polo shirt you're holding, is that good?" he inquired about a particular polo shirt I had in my hands.It was navy blue, so I took it and walked closer to him, shielding my eyes from his bare upper body that was on full display."Yes, that one's good. Go ahead and put it on," I said, feeling my cheeks warming slightly as he chuckled again.Is he teasing me?!"Surely you have underwear, right?" I retorted in mild annoyance while grabbing a khaki shorts for him to wear.That attire was perfect. They're just here at Clara's house, so he doesn't need to put on fancy clothes."Of course, I won't call you in here while I'm half-naked," he responded,

Verania's Point of ViewTwo months ago, the death threats against Ares started, yet he still goes out alone? This person is really persistent! I'll have a serious talk with him later."Anyway, you and Alder are cousins, right?" I asked, and she immediately nodded while drawing a card."Yes Old sister, he's my cousin. He is handsome, isn't he? How did you meet him?" she replied with a cocky tone after the initial statement."Oh, he's a friend," I answered briefly, placing my card down, which she quickly grabbed and almost choked on when she tried to place it lower than I had."Friend? So he's handsome, then?" Sandra asked."Well, what if he is?" I responded sharply, and she chuckled."Do you have a crush on Old Brother Alder?" she asked, making me sweat a bit as she suddenly inquired."Huh, no way! I just had a question," I said, but her eyes narrowed as if suspicious."Okay, Old Sister," she said, not entirely convinced, so I just shrugged."Have you been to their house?" I asked, arr
