Chapter 21: Empty-headed

Daniel's POV:"F*ck! How dare you, woman!" I punched the water and screamed at her retreating back. I climbed up onto the edge of the pool, gritting my teeth as I wasn't expecting her to do that."Daniel, you're drenched, what happened to you?" asked by Tatay Berto when he saw me enter the living room. "Did you just swim fully clothed?""We saw Sophia in her swimsuit earlier, did you join her in the pool?" I took a deep breath and tried to smile at Nanay Emily's question. "But Sophia seemed happy when she passed by a few minutes ago. Did you two swim together?" Tatay Berto asked again. "No, she pushed me." I said scrunching my face. -'The nerve of that woman, I swear to give her a taste of her own medicine!'-"What did you mean she pushed you?" They asked me in unison. "My wife pushed me into the pool." I answered, balling my fists as I remembered how she left me drenched in the middle of the pool. I gained the same reaction from them as they laughed at me ironically."Why did s

Chapter 22: Better to bite your tongue than to eat your words

Sophia's POV:"What kind of a f*cking agreement did you just enter into, Yzabelle?" Bryan yelled at me as he banged his hands over my desk, we're inside of my office. I sighed for the ninth times this morning since I started explaining to him the reason why I accepted Mrs. Kelley's proposal and why I agreed on marrying his son, but he kept on asking me why, when and how. "I did it to protect myself.""To protect yourself?" His head quickly turned in my direction. "Sophia, you know I've been here for you from the very beginning, right?""But I can't depend on you for the rest of my life, Bryan. I know someday when you find the woman for you, you will get married and leave me. So I have to learn to stand on my own feet.""That's why you decided to marry a stranger? Do you think that would solve your problem?""Bryan---?""And what were you saying that I'm gonna leave you when I found the right woman for me?" He asked, walking towards my seat. "You know you're one of the reasons I star

Chapter 23: Lunch date

Daniel's POV:I was about to press the intercom to call my secretary, when Andrew suddenly came rushing inside my office."Sir, we have unexpected visitors." He said, his words and breathing labored. "What do you mean unexpected ----" I didn't finish my question when the door opened and Mr. Norman Goivanni, our new European business partner came to our view. "Mr. Kelley." He said smiling widely at me. "Good morning, Mr. Giovanni." I stood up immediately to meet him halfway. "I'm sorry for the surprise visit, Mr. Kelley.""It's alright, Sir." I smiled as I took his hand. "Let's have a seat. What do you want for drinks, Sir, wine, whiskey ----""Oh, no, no, Mr. Kelley. Actually, I didn't come here today for business." My eyebrows scrunched a bit. "My wife and I would like to invite you and your wife for lunch today.""Ohh..." I wasn't expecting that invitation. "I see, but you should have just called me or informed my assistant, Sir, so you wouldn't have bothered coming here.""Well

Chapter 24: I'm not jealous

Sophia's POV:After lunch with Mr. and Mrs. Giovanni, we all went our separate ways. Daniel and I were back to being a 'normal' couple again, and when I say normal, I mean 'I don't care about you and mind your own business' motto. I didn't ask him or even talk to him about our kiss, as I didn't want to talk about it anymore. Well, maybe because I just didn't want to hear his insensitive comments. After saying goodbye to the couple, I turned to go back into the mall, but I didn't notice that he followed me. I was just shocked when he grabbed my arm inside the men's boutique. "What are you doing here?" I asked, barely a whisper. "I should be the one to ask you that question, sweetheart." He whispered as he pulled me closer to him. "What are you doing inside the men's boutique?" I gulped when his grip tightened. I raised an eyebrow when I noticed the hard glare he was giving me. "It's none of your business, sweetheart." I smiled, emphasizing the last word as I pushed him away, but

Chapter 25: Her absence

Daniels's POV:"Nanay Emily, have you noticed Sophia this morning?"I asked my nanny when I couldn't find her around the house after searching for almost five minutes. "Oh, didn't she tell you?""Didn't tell me about what?""She's going to stay in her old apartment.""She's going to what?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows. "Yes, she told me she's going to stay in her old apartment because they need to rehearse for the grand finals.""But why does she need to stay there again? She can-----""Anak, let her be, it's just for a week." She smiled, patting me by the arm. "Your wife really wanted to win this competition, as she said she will donate all the prizes she'll get to the typhoon victims in Amador City.""She will donate all the prizes, but why would she do that?" I asked, feeling surprised. I didn't expect that it was her reason for joining the competition. "Maybe she just wanted to help those people who were affected by the calamity. The typhoon left them devastated."I was left
