George’s POV“Sir, here’s the invitation for the grand opening tonight. Mr. Chua personally invited you to the launch of their new hotel.”“Alright, just leave it there,” I said without looking up. “I’m busy signing these papers.”It’s been four days since I arrived in Hong Kong. I have a satellite office here, and I need to oversee everything personally. The hotel project my company handled has just been completed, and I want to make sure everything is flawless before the turnover.But no matter how busy I try to be, I can’t get Scarlett and Aiah out of my mind. I miss them, terribly.I dropped the pen and rubbed the back of my neck. “Haaah…” I leaned back on my swivel chair, closing my eyes, trying to escape the weight of my thoughts. Tomorrow, finally, I’ll be flying home.But as I stared blankly at the ceiling, the memory of my last conversation with Scarlett came rushing back.Was I rejected? Was that night nothing but a one-night stand to her? Did she stop loving me? But… why d

Scarlett’s POVI was putting Aiah to sleep when I saw the message Aris sent. My heart instantly skipped, and it pounded even faster when I saw the photo attached.My blood boiled. “Hmph. The ever womanizer, George,” I muttered bitterly, a bit louder than I intended.I quickly turned toward Aiah. Thank goodness, she was fast asleep. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself, but I could still feel my chest trembling.I looked at the photo again.There was George, smiling, wide and carefree, with a woman beside him. I could see in his eyes how much he was enjoying her company. It felt like a sharp knife stabbed straight through my heart. In anger, I slammed my phone on the table, then tucked the blanket over Aiah before quietly leaving the room.I went to the kitchen and poured myself a glass of water. Sitting by the counter, I opened Aris’s message again.“How did he know?” I whispered. Did George tell him?My grip on the glass tightened as the words George told me before came rus

Audrey’s POVI stole glances at Nick while he was eating. I had such a good sleep earlier that I only woke up now, but I could already feel my stomach growling.“Almost… it almost happened earlier,” I whispered to myself, my heart racing. Why didn’t I move away when he slowly came closer? It’s as if… I wanted to feel his kiss. I bit my lip, feeling the heat rise to my cheeks. I quickly looked down, hoping he wouldn’t notice.The surroundings were so beautiful. It felt like we were on a romantic getaway, but wait, why am I even thinking that? I’m here for work, not to drown in scenes that feel like they’re straight out of a movie. I shook my head and focused on my food. To be fair, Manong Tino’s cooking was delicious.When I looked up again, there he was, Nick, staring at me. I panicked a little. I pretended to reach for the water pitcher, but my hand brushed against his. It felt like an electric shock, and I quickly pulled my hand away. “Why is this happening? Why does it feel so st

Audrey’s POV I don’t understand why I’m crying.The tears just keep falling, and I can’t stop them. My heart feels like a mess, lost, confused, without direction.“What is going on with me?” I whispered to myself.Honestly, I was so embarrassed in front of Nick. I still can’t believe I tripped, and worse, that I said those things earlier. What is wrong with me? Why can’t I control my emotions?I was mortified… especially when he pulled away from the kiss. He of all people.I’m angry, angry at myself because it actually hurt when he did that. I shouldn’t be like this. I have a fiancé. I shouldn’t be shaken this way. Maybe I was just caught up in the view, in the moment. I need to draw the line.This is work… yes, this is just work.“Don’t touch me…” I choked out between sobs.“I’m sorry. I’m sorry,” Nick said earnestly.I looked at him, really looked. I saw sincerity and worry in his eyes.“Why are you saying sorry, huh?” I asked angrily, my voice trembling.“You’re hurting because

Audrey’s POVEven though I fell asleep late last night, I woke up early.When I glanced at the clock, it was just past eight. Today’s the day we’re scheduled to visit another part of the property, the waterfalls that Papa plans to make the highlight of the new resort.I took a quick shower and slipped into a fitted lightweight long-sleeved top, hiking pants, and boots. I dried my long hair before tying it into a ponytail, then carefully packed my hiking bag with all the essentials. According to the files Papa sent, we still needed to walk for a few minutes before reaching the falls.As I finished packing, my eyes caught the painting I’d done last night. I couldn’t help but smile. Painting while Nick worked beside me, focused on his design, there was something deeply romantic about that. It felt like we were breathing in the same artistic world. I’m a painter, but the way he moved, every line he drew, every color he chose, fascinated me. Before we went to bed, he showed me the finish
