"I guess you just be enjoying your stay here," Chris said as he plucked a rose from the garden, hiding it behind his back as he faced his asian step-grandmother.Yue Wang was enjoying Chris's company as they walked around the garden, her blonde hair following the rhythm of the breeze as she inhaled the fresh scent of the flowers. "I like it here. This place seems to be more lively than my father's house in China."Chris chuckled. "You made this place more lively. You see, I was alone here until you came.""What about the cold and hefty guy? I mean...""Coldie?" Yue Wang let out hysterical laughter at the mention of Coldie's name. "What sort of name is that?" She laughed.Chris's gaze was locked on her face as he couldn't help but laugh at her sense of humor. "I know right, but grandfather gave him that name. His actual name is Cosmos.""Oh, I see. Doesn't Cosmos keep you company?" Chris shook his head, "He doesn't, he's cold as an ice block but now that you're here, I guess I won't
During the cool evening, Liana continued pacing back and forth in the sitting room. The brown envelope and divorce paper were still in her hands as her maid announced dinner being served but Liana refused to eat. The maid out of worry tried to force her mistress to eat but Liana yelled at her and stormed out of the house, driving to a place only she knew about and that place was the bar.Larry was enjoying his drink when he heard the bell ring as he turned around and saw Liana examining everywhere, he guessed she was probably looking for him and waved at her as a signal."There he is." She gritted her teeth as she walked up to him, throwing the photos in his face and the divorce papers on his table. "Happy now?"Larry raised his brow at her as he took the photos, glancing at them nonchalantly. "You think I was the one who hired a stalker to take the photos?"Liana scoffed, folding her arms. "No, my husband did that instead and you see, he wants a divorce." She said gesturing him to lo
Tension hung in the air as the duo on the bridge kept gazing deep into each other's eyes, lost for words at the moment. Liana found awkward they were together even without making any final discussion about them working together or not and before she could say anything, Larry pulled her in for a kiss, grabbing her waist as he devoured her lips, crashing his lips against her as she held his back, tilting her head, savoring the kisses.After some seconds, Liana pulled out from the kisses, his blue-like eyes, lingering deep into her soul as she found him more mysterious. "Don't look at me like that," Liana said, clearing her throat as she released herself from his embrace, clearing her throat as she tucked her hair behind her ears nervously."How am I looking at you?" He said appearing in front of her as he held her chin firmly, stealing a kiss from her before walking away.A blush crept up her cheeks as she felt hot even when it was windy. Seeing him walking away from her, she yelled an
After a week, the chairman still didn't come home making Yue Wang worried to the core. She kept pestering Coldie to give the chairman a call but the latter bluntly told her that the chairman wouldn't want to be disturbed while he was away."But Christopher's accession as the CEO of RIC CORPORATION is in two days." Yue Wang said worriedly."I know that ma'am, and the chairman will handle it anyhow he can please don't be worried. He's fine." Coldie said before leaving her presence.Yue Wang sat on the couch with a long-expression on her face. Chris was passing by, eating an apple with another in his hand."Perfect timing." He muttered to himself as a satisfactory look was plastered on his face but disappeared immediately after he found out she was sitting all alone sulking away in sadness. Chris hurriedly walked up to her sitting beside her as he tried to find out what was with her dad's mood. "What's wrong, Miss Yue?"Yue noticed his presence and wiped the tears from her eyes, forcing
Both Larry and Liana were having the best of time together and Liana felt less lonely as she had already found someone she shared a common goal with. Larry effortlessly made her feel comfortable around him and he saved her from time to time when she was in trouble and when she felt lonely not without getting a reward from her Liana didn't mind since granting him the reward was what she loved most.Larry got to know the kind of person Liana was, open-minded and insecure, and greed and selfishness were something that wasn't far from noticing but he had to put that aside since using her would help her accomplish his goals. The thoughts about signing the divorce papers started lingering in her mind as she was sitting all alone in the dining room after her maid had cleared the table. Her eyes were fixed on the divorce papers in front of her a she thought solely whether to sign them or not. She still felt Richard was still her husband and thought maybe he didn't think it through before ask
Richard paid for the drinks they had and ordered a cab for his colleagues as he headed back to his car, a reminisce of the man's face lingered in his mind as he opened the piece of paper to read its contents. He was almost startled to death as the paper seemed to be a bloody note, written with blood that was a threat for him to stay far from Liana and the only person he suspected to have written this was the man Liana was seeing behind his back which made his desires for the divorce grow even more as he made withheld his urge and dialed Liana's number which she answered without haste."Oh my god, Richard you lied about changing your number. I've been having sleepless...""Have you signed the divorce papers?" He asked, cutting her words short from her mouth.Liana hesitated. Does this mean he wants a divorce? "Richard I don't want you to regret this later on that's why I'm still hanging onto it."Richard let out a low laugh. "Your useless boyfriend threatened me to stay away from you u
Chris was all smiles when he got in the car with Yue Wang. The latter noticed the proud look on Chris's face and couldn't help but gently slap his shoulder. "Hey, what's that for?" He flinched."I should be asking you that." She said as she glanced at the window.Chris sighed. "That woman was my ex, she ditched me because of my lowlife and suddenly wants me back after my new identity." He explained, resting his elbow on the window.Yue Wang didn't seem surprised but she felt sorry for Chris. "That's sad. How do you plan to get over everything?"A mischievous smile settled on Chris's face. "Let's play." He smirked.Meanwhile, Liana couldn't get a hold of herself as she kept thinking about how Chris and the beautiful woman make a perfect match and started all sorts of comparisons between her and the Asian lady in her head."How on earth did such a lovely woman end up with Christopher?" She groaned in annoyance, stomping her feet on the ground."Why wouldn't he end up with such a woman w
Larry stopped the cab he was in immediately he got a glimpse of Liana's red car by the roadside as the cops were examining it from behind. He got out of the can and ran to where the car was.He saw how badly the car got damaged from behind and the stains from Liana's blood on the ground. A cop saw him and looked at him suspiciously but Larry didn't mind as his mind was occupied with the thoughts of Liana."Mister, are you related to the victim?" The policeman asked curiously, rolling his eyes at Larry.Larry rubbed his jaw as he cleared his throat to speak. "I'm the victim's boyfriend." He said nervously.The policeman nodded in understanding. "Did she tell you about her whereabouts or something? The accident was grace you know?""She didn't tell me about her whereabouts. I would have stopped her from going out if this was going to be the case." Larry said as he gazed at the damaged car. "We'll need you to stay around for some questioning." Larry shook his head disapprovingly. "I do
