Scarlett's POV "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. This is your Captain speaking. We will be landing at HOME International Airport shortly. The weather is good, so we expect a smooth arrival. Thank you for flying with us, and we hope you had a pleasant flight." I woke up because of the pilot’s announcement. After three years, I’m finally back in my country. I’ve been so busy in Europe that I only got the chance to return now. I was supposed to come back next week, but there’s something important I need to fix for my solo exhibition. There was an issue with the location, and I also need to talk to my curator and coordinator for the event. I'm so happy that I’ll finally have a solo exhibition in the Country. Jessica and I have always dreamed of this. I also wanted to include Jessica's paintings for a group or partner exhibition, but she refused. She said she didn’t want to steal the spotlight from me. I didn’t push her anymore. I already shipped my paintings ahead of time,

Chapter 32

Scarlett's POVI got into the car while waiting for George to finish loading my luggage.Through the front mirror, I could see that he was sweating. The sun was really hot. His skin was turning red, and sweat was dripping down his face. When he got into the car, he kept turning his head as if looking for something.I felt sorry for him, so I handed him my handkerchief."Use this to wipe your face. Don’t worry, it’s clean."He looked at me first and smiled before taking the handkerchief."Cute!" I thought to myself. He actually looks cute when he smiles."Thank you," he said, smiling."Thank you, because you find me cute!" he teased, flashing a dazzling smile.I froze. Wait… did I say that out loud???I pretended I didn’t hear anything and looked out the car window. But deep inside, I was so embarrassed. My face was burning red."Is it okay if I turn on the music?" he asked.I just nodded.When we reached the busy road, I heard him start singing along with the radio.🎵🎶 If the world

Chapter 33

Nicholas’ POVI was in the middle of a lunch meeting when I noticed Jessica walking in with another man. Actually, there were four of them, but the other two left soon after.Our discussion about the collaboration wasn’t over yet, but I was getting distracted because I could see how happy she was while talking to him.I was watching Jessica from a distance.It’s been two weeks. I miss her. Even though we’re only separated by a wall, I haven't seen her since that night. I've been busy, and I think she has been too. I was out of town for several days.I remember that night when she returned to her unit. Even though I was exhausted, I couldn’t sleep.Just the thought that she's only walls away excites me. I know I should be careful.I'm trying to stay away from her because I feel like I’m falling. And that's not part of the plan. I need to control my emotions.But now, seeing her smiling with another man makes my chest feel like it’s about to explode.My heart is telling me to go to her

Chapter 34

Jessica’s POVMy heart was pounding so hard that I could barely breathe.I didn’t expect that Nicholas Ford had a childish side. I was dumbfounded by his actions.Just like earlier… I was comfortable and genuinely enjoying my conversation with Rich. He’s deep and insightful. What’s even better is that he loves art, which is why we connected so well. I loved how he shared his experiences and how he viewed art. I missed talking to people who appreciated art the way I do.That’s why I was furious when Nicholas started spouting nonsense. I didn’t want Rich to think I was that kind of woman.Dad also wanted me to make a good impression on Rich since he’s the son of his friend. I don’t want to disappoint Dad. What would he say if he found out about what happened?And worst of all… I was completely thrown off when Nick said that I was his?!At that moment, part of me felt happy and excited.But when I remembered his kiss with Andrea during the conference, I realized that maybe Nick was just

Chapter 35

Scarlett's POVI feel bored. I’m excited to see Jessica. I already called my curator and organizers for the event, and we decided to set a meeting to finalize everything. I was pacing back and forth on the sofa.It’s so hot. I need to eat something cold.I checked the fridge, but I couldn’t find anything I liked. So, I decided to go downstairs to buy some ice cream. Rocky Road is Jessica's favorite, after all.Just as I closed the door to the condo, I saw a couple step out of the elevator.The guy suddenly grabbed the girl and kissed her hungrily. The girl even responded with so much passion.It was like I was watching a kissing scene from a movie… It looked SO hot! That guy sure knows how to kiss…They looked like lovers who hadn’t seen each other for years and were desperately longing for each other.I smiled. Seeing couples kiss isn’t a big deal for me. In Europe, people do that on the streets or even in the park all the time.But…My hand flew to my mouth when I recognized the gir

Chapter 36

George's POVI was at the gym when Nick called."Yes, hello, Nick!""Are you available today?""Can we go to the bar?" he asked."Oh? Did something happen? Sure!" I asked curiously.Most of the time, whenever Nick invited me to a bar, it meant he was dealing with a serious problem."9 PM at High Level Bar.""I'll book a private room for the two of us.""Okay, see you then," I said before hanging up.I continued my workout. I had just finished on the treadmill when I noticed a woman walk in. I smiled and approached her. It was Scarlett."What a coincidence! You work out here too?"She just raised an eyebrow at me. She looked sexy in her gym outfit. She was wearing a cream tank top paired with leggings and athletic shoes. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail, and she also wore a headband."Hey! Wow, you're really ignoring me," I called after her.She walked straight to the pulldown machine as if she hadn’t seen me."Maybe she's in a bad mood again because of her period," I thought.It had

Chapter 37

Scarlett's POVI am brave, but I couldn't help feeling nervous about what the police officer said. I started regretting my impulsiveness.Now, George is involved. I'm worried for him. I saw how the man looked at him, like he was seething with rage and seeking revenge.I didn’t want to withdraw the case, but Dad texted me, saying he had already spoken to the man’s father. That I didn’t need to worry about my safety. I know the guy wasn’t sincere in his apology, but I need to listen to Dad.We walked out of the police station in silence, both deep in thought. Night had already fallen by the time we left. George was holding my arm as we walked out, supporting and protecting me. I felt thankful and overwhelmed.Even now, I was still trembling. I kept thinking, what if his fist had actually landed on my face? The thought sent shivers down my spine.When we reached the parking lot, George opened the car door for me. I looked at him with sad eyes before getting in. He then entered the driver

Chapter 38

Nicholas' POVI’ve had several glasses of alcohol, yet George still hasn't arrived. It’s almost ten o’clock. I invited him because I wanted to talk to him about Jessica. I know she’s not just an employee or a friend to him. The mere thought that their relationship might be special makes me jealous.I need to make things clear.I’m also frustrated because it’s been a week since I confessed my feelings to Jessica.And yet, we haven’t had a proper conversation since. All we exchange are simple “hi,” “hello,” and “bye.”If she’s not at work, she’s always with her best friend, Scarlett, who never lets her go. It makes me feel like I don’t matter to her.We haven't talked seriously again. Also, I miss her… so much.I miss her kiss. Every time I remember it, my body heats up. I took another drink to shake off the warmth spreading inside me.I also remember her friend, Scarlett. Scarlett is a rare kind of friend. I admire her. She’s very protective of Jessica. I still recall what she told me

Chapter 39

Nicholas' POVI snapped back to the present moment when I saw George enter the private room."Sorry, Nick. I'm late. Something happened," he said."Uuhh??!… Do you have a deep problem? Why is this already half-empty???"He pointed at the bottle of liquor on the table.He took the bottle and poured himself a little into his glass to drink. I also felt like the alcohol was already getting to me."I'm dating Jessica!!" I said straightforwardly.George froze, his glass of alcohol still in the air."Jessica???" he asked."Jessica Laviste," I clarified.He paused for a moment before finally drinking the alcohol in his glass."How serious are you with Jessica?" he asked seriously, pouring himself another drink.I took a sip from my glass before answering.But George spoke first."If you are not serious, Nick, then stay away from Jessica now."I smirked at what he said. It reminded me of what Scarlett told me before."What is Jessica to you, George?" I asked seriously.I looked him straight i

Chapter 40

Jessica's POVI just got home to my condo. I was hoping to see Nick… I miss him so much. I’ve been really busy because I’m feeling pressured by Dad. Thankfully, I finally finished my proposal for Mr. Hugo earlier. I’ve been coming home late at night because of all the work I have to do.Now, Dad wants me to get close to Sir Rolando’s son, and the two of us will be handling the partnership. I’m worried because Nick might get jealous. I need to let him know. It’s possible that Rich and I will be spending a lot of time together.As soon as I entered, Scarlett greeted me.“Boobae…”She hugged me tightly. I could feel that she was carrying something heavy inside her.I pushed her gently and looked into her eyes.“Are you okay?… Did something happen?”She shook her head and hugged me again. I just hugged her back. I’ll wait until she’s ready to talk. I pinched her cheek.As I put down my bag, I heard my phone ring. It was Nick. I smiled. Scarlett also smiled when she saw who was calling.“A
