On the night of her birthday party, Jehan caught her boyfriend cheating on her. Sa halip na komprontahin ito at gumawa ng iskandalo ay minabuti na lang niyang umalis. Natagpuan niya ang sariling nakaupo sa isa sa mga stool sa harap ng bar counter, hawak ang baso ng alak. A guy, who introduced himself as Thunder sat beside her and started to asked her about some ramdom questions. Trying to keep her identity as private, Jehan answered his questions without spilling him the real reason behind her sudden visit to the bar. Ibang pangalan din ang binigay niya rito sa pag-aakalang hindi na sila magkikita pa ulit. Pero sino nga bang mag-aakala na nakasalalay pala sa pangalan na ibinigay niya rito ang ikatatahimik sana ng buhay niya?

She's too young to know the meaning of love and to fall in love, they say. But Victoria Abbel Stanislaksi knew better. She believes that sooner rather than later, Trevor Dmitri will like her back as long as she shows how persistent she can be, but that was what she thought. After loving him for 10 years, she got hurt and tired of feeling disregarded. Kahit anong paraan ang gawin niya, hindi siya mapansin-pansin ni Trevor Dmitri. Who wouldn't? Despite being handsome and famous, he is snob and a man of few words. However, Victoria as weird as she is, a guy like Trevor Dmitri, makes her turn on, sexually speaking. Not until something happened. She woke up in Trevor Dmitri's room wearing nothing but her birthday suit. At kung kailan niya napagpasyahan na lumayo sa binata, doon naman nagpapakita ng interest sa kanya si Trevor at nagpapatibok muli sa puso niya. He's like a calculus subject to Victoria, hard to understand, but she's willing to take it despite the growing tension between them while discovering the truth behind Trevor's aloofness towards her. Truth hurts, but can she take it all?

Isang video ng boyfriend ko na nagpo-propose sa kanyang secretary ang nag-trending. Lahat ay kilig na kilig at sinasabing napaka-romantic at nakakaantig ang eksena. Nag-post pa mismo ang secretary niya sa social media: "Matagal kitang hinintay, at buti na lang hindi ako sumuko. Ipagkakatiwala ko ang buhay ko sayo, Mr. Emerson." Isa sa mga komento ang nagsabi: "Diyos ko, sobrang sweet nito! CEO at secretary—bagay na bagay sila!" Hindi ako umiyak o nag-eskandalo. Sa halip, tahimik kong isinara ang webpage at hinarap ang nobyo ko para humingi ng paliwanag. Doon ko siya narinig na nakikipag-usap sa mga kaibigan niya. "Wala akong choice. Mapipilitan siyang pakasalan ang isang taong hindi niya mahal kung hindi ko siya tinulungan." "Eh si Vicky? Siya ang totoong girlfriend mo. Hindi ka ba natatakot na magalit siya?" "Eh ano naman kung magalit siya? Pitong taon na kaming magkasama—hindi niya ako kayang iwan." Sa huli, ikinasal ako sa parehong araw ng kasal nila. Nang magkasalubong ang aming mga sasakyan, nagpalitan kami ng bouquet ng kanyang secretary. Nang makita niya ako, labis siyang nasaktan at humagulgol.

Moans. I hear moans. "Ugh! Faster!" I covered my ears like an innocent child hoping that they would quite down. I ran back down the kitchen and drank a glass of water. I'm not paid enough for this. Thinking back and I was already regretting my life decisions— NOT! Now that I have discovered how much of a big womanizer this fiancée of mine is, I think I now have a reason to dump him. Disguised as his maid is so hard just to get intel unto what his true colors actually are. Honestly wasn't the best idea, but it definitely is the most efficient one. I sat on the counter of the kitchen and rested my head on the table over my folded arms. Perhaps a nap might help innocent me up. Just when slumber finally came, I heard sloppy footsteps coming down the staircase. The "young master" finally finished his business. I went to meet them at the bottom of the stairs to greet his lady friend safety on her way home. "I can't wait for tomorrow night," she said in a seductive tone and batted her lashes on him. I held back my urge to barf. Her arms are all over him as if she was the drunk one when in fact it was my good for nothing fiancé. "You're too loud," Timothee replied as it was his way of rejecting girls. And yes, another girl cried that night. She won't be expecting to sleep with him again. As the lady went out the door, I look at the young master. His hair wet, topless and jeans unbuttoned. "Don't drool over me, scullery maid." And with that he went back up. Jerk!
