"Take that away, Justine," I replied, trying not to get affected by it. Noah was just born and was resting in my arms. I was happy, and I didn't want to ruin it. "My husband won't cheat on me. I know him. Perhaps that photo was simply edited." Justine scoffed in disbelief. "Believe what you wanted to believe, Yvanna. Isn't it ironic he was not even here when you have the most crucial part of your life? I messaged him, a hundred times, but he simply read all my messages..." "That's enough, Justine! Please, leave me alone." I begged without even looking at him. Justine did not answer me but he took Noah from me and put him back to the other bed. As soon as he evacuated the room, I rested my back on the bed with the tears in my eyes pouring like an open faucet. I couldn't believe no one from Norman's family even visited me, at least, to check up on the new member of the dela Vegas. Even his own father was not around. "Am I doing the right thing marrying Norman?" I

Norman and Justine maybe two of the most handsome men in our time, but these two were one-of-a-kind. Based on my quick observation, the two could have been brothers and came from a wealthy family considering the way they both dressed up, all in business suits. "No. I'm so sorry too -- It's all my fault, 'cause I wasn't looking what's ahead of me," to extend my sincere apology, I bent half of my body toward them. The two suddenly exchanged glances. "Oh, that's completely unnecessary. We're not kings or princes in this school. Just the sons of the owner." the younger one humbly commented on my bow. "You can have our spot, Ms. Gorgeous." he quickly grabbed his brother's collar and dragged him behind me along with him. "My name is Tanner, one of the professors at this prestigious university. And this is my younger brother, Winston Perry." He even slapped his brother's head to bow before me. "Tanner Perry?" I frowned before I stepped on their spot, and accepted

Norman did not give me the chance to debate or reject his proposal as he hopped out of the elevator, leaving me alone, stunned and dumbfounded. Today marks my first official day in my office as the newly appointed president of the dela Vega Group and Companies, and an urgent meeting greeted me like a bolt of lightning. What's worst is that Norman would not be there to at least guide me or let me observe the flow of having a meeting first. The heavy feeling was like he deployed me in a battle without a bullet in my rifle. As soon as I stepped foot into the office, Elaine greeted me with a bulk of documents on my desk. "That would be the issues to be discussed for the meeting, Mrs. dela Vega. Please, take your time to read them. We only have two hours left before the meeting commences. Let me know if you have questions." Norman simply passed through me and hopped back to the nearest elevator. He even blinked at me before the door of the elevator closed which left me

"Hey, relax!" I gently caressed Justine's shoulder in disbelief he greeted me with a furious face when Tanner and I hadn't done anything wrong. "Wait, are you jealous right now?" "Of course, not!" Justine defensively blurted. "I was just worried about you, Yvanna. Norman may be ruthless and cold-hearted but Tanner is second to none. He's the worst. Are you even watching or reading the news recently?" I have no idea why Justine was so worked up or obsessed with Tanner when the man didn't do anything wrong to me. And being jealous was all I could think of why he reacted that way. He was probably afraid and jealous that I might fall in love again with a new billionaire in the city considering he was only earning a penny compared to them. But I already learned my lesson. That was me in the past who dreamed of marrying someone as wealthy as Norman, but after everything that happened to me, there's no chance I would fall for their money again. Justine Stroem is the l

Tonight was supposed to be my first day in class, and I have been planning to be as good and observant as possible, but it turned out that I will be having a hard time doing that for the rest of the semester. What's worse is that I might have gotten our professor's bad side on the very first day. I was even convinced that first impressions last. Everyone might think I'm a troublemaker in the class. "It seems that you have a long story to tell, huh?" Tanner whispered to me on our way to the Guidance Office. "Perhaps you can share them with me over a bottle of beer. We don't know, I might be of help to get rid of those that bothered you." Tanner's proposal, undeniably, tempts me, but I don't know if I should be pleased or start to get worried when his statement proves Norman and Justine's impressions of him to be true. The only thing I knew about him was when we were in college. A lot of things changed. From an introverted student seven years ago, he turned into a be
