31: Making A Scene

“LENE...”“Celene!” The sound of Criselda’s voice startled Celene. She snapped out of her daze and looked at her friend who was sitting in front of her. They were sitting with Joseph in the cafeteria, eating lunch, but her thoughts were still consumed by Noah’s unexpected confession. “What’s wrong? You’ve been zoning out all morning. Do you feel sick?”“Ah no, I’m just thinking of something.” She forced a smile and continued eating. “What were you saying earlier?”“I asked if you are familiar with De Laruente?” Criselda’s question nearly caused Celene to choke on her food. She quickly covered her mouth and coughed, while Joseph, sitting next to her, handed her a glass of water. Once she composed herself, she thanked him and took a sip before regaining looking at Criselda.“Yes, I do, but why?”“Well, I heard that the chairman's daughter is going to marry their CEO.”The moment the words reached Celene’s ears, her face lost all color, and her heart started beating faster.‘How did that

32: Scandalous Gossip

“LEAVE, don’t make a scene here.” Celene clenched her jaw, feeling embarrassed to be the focus of everyone’s attention. If her father found out about this messed up situation, he would likely retaliate against Jarred and Agnes, which was something she didn’t want to happen.“What’s going on?” Celene’s attention was diverted by a voice she recognized, causing her to turn and see her cousin and the general manager of the company, Ash, approaching them. In the distance behind him, she could see Noah hurrying away as if trying to avoid being noticed.She knew from his expression just now that he wanted to help her, but it was too risky to do it inside the company as they were both trying to keep their true identities hidden from public knowledge.“I’m sorry, sir. My ex-husband’s mistress suddenly attacked me and accused me of seducing my ex-husband,” Her voice rang out, loud and clear, causing the surrounding on-lookers to cover their mouths in shock and murmur amongst themselves. Agnes’

33: Twisted Couple

“WHAT IN THE WORLD,” Celene let out a quiet curse as she caught sight of Jarred walking into the restaurant where she and Noah were supposed have their date. It had been three days since the incident, but her work experience since then hadn’t been enjoyable, to say the least.Thanks to Ash’s assistance, she believed she had resolved the situation. However, not all of her coworkers were convinced that she hadn’t tempted someone’s future husband, particularly in her own department where Amelia started labeling her as a slut.After several days of emotional exhaustion, she finally had a day off and hoped to escape the toxic environment. But of course, the universe had other plans as she would now have to face the person she despised most. She let out a deep breath and looked away, hoping he wouldn’t notice her presence. But, as luck would have it, he spotted her immediately.“Celene,” he called when he approached the table where she was seated near the glass wallShe specifically chose t

34: Lost in the Sensation (18+)

IN AN INSTANT, their lips met, and they were lost in the moment. Noah’s hand gently caressed Celene’s cheek as he deepened the kiss. But before things could escalate, the sound of a doorbell shattered their intimate bubble. Both of them straightened up immediately, clearing their throats and trying to compose themselves.“I-I think the room service’s already here,” she stammered, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment as she averted her gaze. Meanwhile, Noah let out a sigh, obviously frustrated that they got interrupted before striding towards the door and pulling it open.Celene watched him, somehow, she was starting to feel uneasy about being alone with Noah in a private setting. They still hadn’t talked about his confession from days ago, and she wanted to establish boundaries to protect herself from getting hurt again, but the recent kiss made her realize that she was starting to feel drawn back toward Noah just like she had in the past.Being around him was both exhilarating and

35: Night of Passion (18+)

“OOF!” Celene closed her eyes when Noah suddenly laid her down on the bed and positioned himself over her. He took advantage of the fact that she hadn’t immediately reacted to his movements by kissing her deeply, allowing her lips to linger against his, letting her taste herself on his tongue.He continued to passionately explore her mouth as she moaned softly in response, his hand gently caressing her body before slowly removing the towel that had been concealing her figure.“You smell good,” Noah muttered as his kisses trailed along her neck until he reached her breast, which he fondled lightly, earning a soft groan from Celene beneath him.“Nghh~” She tugged at his hair, relishing the sensation of his warm tongue dancing around her erect nipple while he massaged her other breast with his hands. The sound of Celene’s moans filled the quiet room, making Noah’s desire to grow even further with each passing moment.He was only engaging in foreplay to prepare her, but he could tell she

36: Officially Divorced

“CONGRATULATIONS,” Celene smiled as her parents greeted her after she received some good news that her divorce had been finalized. Two weeks had passed since her last encounter with Jarred, and now, her marriage to that asshole was finally dissolved. She couldn’t be any happier knowing she was officially free from him.She had anticipated it would take a few more months, so the sudden news caught her completely off guard.“We should celebrate this!” Isabelle suggested excitedly, relieved that her daughter was no longer married to Jarred, who was now struggling with financial losses because his mother had become addicted to gambling. Celene didn’t know it yet, but she was secretly getting revenge on Martha by orchestrating her losses in casino games. Of course, she wasn't the one playing; instead, it was her secretary who was quite skilled at it.“We are having dinner with Noah and his parents tonight. We can deliver the news to them and celebrate together,” Herman chimed in, and the m

37: Nothing to Lose

“RELAX,” Celene retrieved her phone from Noah after he ended the call.“You should change your number,” he said, feeling his anger building up again at the thought of that bastard saying he loved Celene.“I’m going to, I just kept forgetting it.” she said before blocking the new number Jarred used to call her. “Why did you even do that?”“Am I not allowed to?” Noah asked, somehow, sensing Celene wasn’t pleased with how he acted. Despite knowing that what he did wasn’t entirely appropriate, he was still confused as to why she would be upset with him, considering the person involved was her ex-husband.‘Does she want to keep talking to him?’ he thought.“It’s not a question of whether it’s allowed or not. Taking someone’s phone while they’re in the middle of a conversation is extremely disrespectful. Would you be okay with it if I did the same thing to you?” Celene asked, unsure why she was making such a fuss when she didn’t actually care about his actions.“Yes, as long as it isn’t an

38: Sense of Accomplishment

“IS THIS A GOOD IDEA?” Celene asked, her voice barely above a whisper as she followed her cousin out of the marketing office.She didn’t know why or what the reason was but announcing that the chairman wanted to meet her in front of everyone felt like a risky move. The idea of them whispering and speculating after they left made her anxious, knowing that they would likely come to their own conclusions without all the information.After all, her father was known to be poor at remembering names, especially when he only met the person once or twice, so it must have been a surprise to everyone that she was called out. Besides, a regular employee being summoned to the chairman was a rare occurrence.“What do you mean?” Ash turned to her, “Walk by my side, it’s making me uncomfortable that you’re walking behind me.”“I’m a regular employee right now. I thought you already knew about my mission,” she answered as she carefully looked around, making sure they weren’t looking suspicious. ‘Is Da

39: Engagement Party

AS CELENE headed to work the next day, she noticed a car parked in front of the building. She recognized it immediately and tried to ignore Jarred as she continued walking. However, he got out of the car and followed her.“Don’t worry, I won’t cause any trouble,” he said, grabbing her arm tightly. Celene then let out a sigh and pulled away.“I have work, let go.”“I just want to give you an invitation,” Jarred persisted, pulling out a red envelope from the pocket of suit and gave to her. “You should come to my engagement party tomorrow.”Celene furrowed her brows, still questioning the sincerity of his words from the other night. She clenched her jaw tightly, aware of the potential gossip surrounding her and not wanting to add fuel to the fire. Letting out a frustrated sigh, she reluctantly accepted the invitation handed to her by Jarred.“Fine, whatever. Just let go of me. I’m already running late for work,” she snapped, shooting an annoyed look at Jarred who quickly released her.“J

40: Little Silly Game

“HAAH!” Celene couldn’t help but release a sigh of disbelief. She had anticipated that he was up to something, but she never would have guessed he would twist the situation to make it seem like she wasn’t supposed to be there.Despite this unexpected turn, she refused to let it get to her. If needed, she would play along until she could find an opportunity to escape from this predicament.“I must be a joke to you.” she smiled before taking out the invitation, "‘But fine, I'll play along with your little silly game.”“This, you handed me this yesterday with a desperate expression on your face.” Celene shoved the invitation into his chest before glancing at Agnes, “And oh, do your mistress know that you called me the other night to tell me that you love me after our divorce had been finalized?”The murmurs grew louder, creating a collective gasp as Celene’s words sunk in. Agnes clenched her jaw and glanced down at the invitation that fell to the floor. She didn’t know what Jarred had in
