Muling bumalik sa kanya ang sakit na talagang niloloko lang siya ni Derrick, na nioloko lang siya ng kaisa isang lalakeng pinagkatiwalaan niya. “Your boyfriend has been cheating on you since you’ve been together. And I need a wife for me to get my inheritance. Kaya pakasalan mo ako, at ipamukha natin sa pamangkin ko kung gaano siya katanga na pinakawalan ka," mariing ani pa ni Gabriel. Mabigat ang bawat salita, punong-puno ng determinasyon at galit. Sabay noon, dahan-dahang nilagay ni Gabriel ang kamay sa bewang ni Alyana. Hindi siya agad gumalaw. Parang natigilan ang buong katawan niya, pero kasunod no’n ay ang mainit na dampi ng labi ni Gabriel sa kanya, mabilis, ngunit may bakas ng kontroladong pagnanasa. Isang halik na parang paunang tikim sa mas mapusok pang alok. Napasinghap si Alyana, napaigtad sa gulat. Napatingin siya sa mga mata ni Gabriel, matapang, diretso, at puno ng panunukso. "It's a win-win situation," bulong ni Gabriel, habang hindi inaalis ang tingin sa kanya. "Makakapaghiganti ka sa manloloko mong ex, at ako, makukuha ko ang mana ko."

What she doesn’t know? He’s still not over her. What he doesn’t know? She’s hiding more than just her heart. Some battles aren’t fought in the courtroom—they’re fought where it hurts the most.

He ran his fingers through his messy, sexy-looking hair, cursing under his breath a couple of times. Disappointment, anger, and disbelief radiated from his aura. "But why, Adrian?"
