Liliana’s Point of View “Babe!” Gerald immediately let go of Mirabelle and rushed toward me, holding my hand and hugging me tightly. I could still see the sharp look Mirabelle gave me. When our eyes met, she quickly looked away. “Babe, I went through so much,” he said with a shaky voice. I looked at him closely. I had to act more affectionate now, just enough to convince everyone watching. “What happened to you, Babe? Are you okay? Did you get into a fight or something?” “No. I woke up in some faraway place. My car ran out of gas, and I couldn’t get back home. To make things worse, my phone battery was dead.” I frowned a little, still trying to understand. “What? How did that even happen? Where were you before that? You’re not the kind of guy who just ends up somewhere like that randomly.” “The last thing I remember… I was outside your house, near the woods. After that, everything went black.” “So that’s why you messaged me you were outside? I only saw it in the mor

Liliana’s Point of ViewThe next day...We were back at work again. Gerald had told me that his car had finally been recovered from where they found it—right in the middle of the forest.Who on earth would leave it there?"Wife, what’s going on in that pretty little head of yours?"I blinked and looked up at Asher. He was studying me, his brows furrowed with concern."Hubby, do you have any idea who might’ve done that to Gerald? Right in front of Grandpa’s house, of all places?"He paused, then looked straight at me."You know something?"His eyes searched mine, but when I shook my head slowly, he exhaled."I’m sorry, Wife. I honestly don’t know.""Well, we were sleeping next to each other that night, so... Never mind. I just hope nothing else bad happens from now on. Back to work, I guess."He gave me a soft smile, nodding slowly. Then, out of nowhere, he wrapped his arms around me. I stared up at him in surprise."Wife, stop thinking so much about the past, okay? I don’t ever want t

Third Person's Point of ViewAt Gerald's home, he sat on his couch, his eyes fixed on his phone, where a photo of him and Liliana was displayed. A soft smile curled on his lips as he gazed at the image. He had taken time off from work due to what happened to him the previous day."My girlfriend is so beautiful… Wait, her birthday is coming up. That’s when I’ll ask her."But then, a realization struck him, and he paused, frowning."No… Not then. I need to marry her before her birthday to make sure I secure her wealth. Yes, that’s the plan."He opened his mobile wallet app and his brows furrowed at the sight of the low balance staring back at him.“Ugh… Think positive. I still have a paycheck coming.”He forced a grin, convincing himself that everything he’d spend now would be recovered once he got his hands on Liliana’s fortune.And if he managed to take her virginity, he’d also win the bet he had with his co-workers. He was drowning in debt—over five million in loans—and he needed to

Liliana’s Point of ViewMy knees gave out as I sank into my seat, biting my lower lip as I let my head rest on my desk.That was close. I almost got caught. Thankfully, I managed to get myself out of that situation quickly. I glanced at my phone, remembering Asher. What happened? Did he manage to reach Gerald in time? I hope nothing bad happened to him.Just then, Mirabelle walked up to me, looking like she had no idea about what was going on with Gerald.“Besh—uh, I mean, Miss Liliana, can I talk to you for a moment?”At least she finally knows how to act appropriately at work.“What is it?”“Uhm… today’s the day with the loan shark, right? Have you saved enough for Gerald?”Her question caught me off guard.“What do you mean? How did you know about that?”“You told me about it before, didn’t you?”As far as I remember, I never told her anything. Maybe Gerald did?“I think I must’ve forgotten I mentioned it. Never mind.”“You must be struggling. You can borrow money from me. I’ll jus

Liliana’s Point of ViewAt this point, I couldn’t care less about the bagoong. Asher was holding me tightly, and I was about to push him away when his arms wrapped even tighter around me.“What are you doing here?”Bert visibly gulped the moment Asher spoke. He went pale.“I-I’m sorry, Mr. Windermere,” he stammered.He looked down, and I could feel the slight trembling in his shoulders. I let out a sigh and glanced at Asher.“Don’t look at my friend.”Asher frowned, and before he could say anything, I covered his eyes with my hand so he wouldn’t stare at Bert.“Come here, Bert.”He looked at me, clearly confused by everything going on.“He’s not looking anymore. Don’t worry.”“H-How…”Caleb stepped toward us.“Milady, what should we do with him?”Everyone looked at Caleb in surprise, sensing from his tone that he was implying we should get rid of Bert.“I’ll tell him the truth. But not here. Let’s go to his—no, to your office,” I said, pointing at Asher, catching myself before I accid
