All Chapters of Winning back the man who now hates me: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

.Present...LIBBY put down the basket of fresh herbs on the kitchen sink and went to drink a full glass of water. She wiped her face with her palm and took a deep breath. She could feel the fatigue engulfing her all over again.Tama si Arthur, her boss,she wasn't supposed to move around yet. Kagagaling niya lamang mula sa isang linggong trangkaso at kahapon sa return check up niya ay binilinan siya ng doctor na magpahinga ng dalawa hanggang tatlong araw pa bago bumalik sa trabaho.But upon hearing that the famous influencer, Fiona Sevilla, was coming to the farm, she volunteered to gather the herbs from the greenhouse which was about 50 meters away from the main building.It was only January and this is the 2nd celebrity na magiging client nila sa Mistwood Health Farm. This is such a big help to boost the business that Arthur re-opened only half a year ago.As for Libby, napakaimportante sa kanya ng Mistwood. After all, sya ang utak ng lahat ng ito. When she first came to work here a

Present...NAKABIBINGING katahimikan ang bumalot sa buong reception area matapos ang pahayag ni Jacob.Libby was in daze. Para bang paulit-ulit na nage echo angboses ng lalaki.She managed to focus her eyes on Jacob only to see his triumphant sneer.Oh Jacob, her heart cried. Ramdam na ramdam niya ang galit nito. Jacob who had never been angry with her. Who had always been patient with her even during her most stubborn moments. He was now looking at her with all contempt. Inanunsyo ang nakaraan nila with only one intention, which is to malign her. Hurt her.“So where do we do this famous welcome massage this place is so proud of?” tanong ng lalaki. As if he didn’t just drop a bombshell. Tinaasan siya ng kilay. “My massage?”Nanginginig ang boses ni Libby nang magsalita. “Sumunod ka.” She walked past him and didn’t bother looking back kung nakasunod nga ito. Part of her was hoping he wouldn’t follow. Huh, wishful thinking.They briefly went of the main building saka pumasok sa unang m

TAHIMIK na pinanonood ni Libby mula sa kanyang kinatatayuan sina Jacob at Leo na naglalaro ng bola sa damuhan. Halos magi isang oras na nang magsalubong sila sa reception ni Lyka at sabihin nitong nasa labas sina Jacob at Leo. Pinigilan niya ang sariling lumabas agad, thinking she owed it to him na bigyan ito ng privacy kasama ang bata since Lyka convinced her Leo was in good hands.“Sorry ha, hindi ko kasi alam ang sasabihin ko nung kausapin ako na iwanan sila.” ani Lyka. Meaning nahuhulaan na rin nito na si Jacob ang ama ng bata kaya’t hindi alam kung paano ilugar ang sarili. “Nakita ko namang komportable na si Leo kasi mejo nakipaglaro muna siya sa amin at nung makitang tumatawa na si Leo saka niya ako sinabihan.” pagpapaliwanag pa nito.She was about to ask more questions nang biglang matahimik dahil nakitang papalapit sa kanila si Fiona. NAgmamadaling lumayo si Lyka.Napalunok si Libby pero alam niyang kailangan niyang magpaliwanag sa nakalapit ng babae. "I'm so sorry about all o

Jacob's POVJacob told himself he was doing the right thing when he took Leo outside.He needed air.Distance.Control.Pero hindi sapat ang sariwang hangin para kumalma siya.Ang tanging laman ng isipan ay si Libby—standing there in his house, in his space, breathing the same air he had learned to survive without for years. Every time he looked at her, memories clawed their way back in. The love. The betrayal. Ang kwarto sa ospital kung san nagising siyang wala ito.HIndi niya namalayang nakatulog na pala si Leo. His chest tightening at how familiar the weight of his son felt in his arms. This—this—should have been his life from the beginning.But it wasn’t.Naghihintay si Libby sa sala at agad nang umakyat sila.He felt her presence behind even before she spoke.“Jacob, we need to talk.”He pretended not to hear her.Talking was dangerous. Talking meant cracking. And if he cracked, he didn’t know if he could stop himself from begging her to stay—or screaming at her to leave.“We can
