Para sa iba, siya ay bayarang babae at nakakahiya ang ginagawa niya. Para kay Vanessa, ito ang paraan para matustusan ang mahal niyang lola na may malubhang sakit. She convinced herself that sacrifices like this were necessary, kahit na pilit niyang tinatago sa puso ang pangarap na mahalin din siya ng kaniyang boss.

And above all—a man she would never let go. Matutunan kaya niyang mahalin at tanggapin ang lalaking magiging katuwang niya sa paghihiganti kung hindi na siya naniniwala sa pag-ibig?
