Vanessa's words echoed in Bianca's mind, "Engagement isn't marriage. Life's too short not to be happy."Vanessa, always dressed in luxurious fashion as both a model and designer of high-end accessories, was a friend who admired all of Bianca's assets and saw her life as an inspiration for those who desired more wealth. She constantly reminded Bianca that Harry was a goldmine and must be kept at all costs.After the lavish party, Bianca and Vanessa found themselves alone in Bianca's apartment. The sparkling city lights outside brought a sense of peace, but inside Bianca, there was an unspoken unease."Vanessa, I don't know what to do," Bianca admitted. "I love Lucas, but I can't just leave everything Harry has given me."Vanessa's eyes gleamed with cunning. "You don't have to choose, Bianca. You can have both."Bianca furrowed her brow. "What do you mean?""I mean, keep seeing Lucas. Keep that relationship a secret. If things with Harry don't improve, you'll have Lucas to lean on."Bia
Luna's POVI woke up with a discomfort in my stomach. The cramps were quite strong, but I ignored them, thinking it was just a regular stomachache. I prepared myself for work as usual. As a dedicated professional, I didn't want to miss work just because of a mild stomachache.In the kitchen, I found Lucas preparing breakfast."Morning, Luna. You look pale. Are you okay?" he asked with concern.I gave him a weak smile. "Just a bit of a stomachache. It’ll go away soon. I'll be fine."Lucas frowned, clearly worried. "If you’re not feeling well, it’s better to stay home and rest."But I shook my head. "No, I have to go to the office. There’s a lot of work to be done, and I need to help you.""I'm sorry to trouble you." He looked a bit downcast."You're amazing. It's just that... suddenly becoming the owner of a big company comes with a lot of responsibilities."I couldn't leave Lucas alone, especially since he wasn't a professional in managing a big company like LH Tower. I needed to sup
POV Lucas.The day passed quickly, the day of my meeting with Bianca. I gaze at her figure. Luna, though still looking a bit tired, works with extraordinary enthusiasm. I feel proud and moved seeing her dedication. We work well together, and the company is starting to show significant progress. Sometimes Bianca's shadow still occasionally crosses my mind. I know I need to completely let go of the past to move forward. Whenever doubts and insecurities arise, I remind myself of Luna's commitment and support. She is my future, and I must not let the past haunt me.I can't shake Bianca's shadow from my mind since our unexpected encounter at the supermarket. Sitting at my desk, my thoughts keep drifting back to the past, to the moments we shared. It feels like a recurring nightmare, even though I know Bianca is the past, and Luna is my present and future. I try to focus on work, but memories of Bianca's sweet smile and regretful gaze keep disturbing me. I start feeling confused and angry a
POV LucasWe walked towards a nearby park, looking for a quieter place to talk. Sitting on a park bench, Bianca looked at me with eyes full of regret."Lucas, I know I've made a lot of mistakes. "I want to explain everything," he said slowly.I looked at him, trying to find the truth in his eyes. "All right, I'm listening."He began to tell me about what happened a year ago.How she felt pressured by her modeling career, how she felt that she was losing control of her life.I listened carefully, trying to understand from his point of view."Lucas, I know I betrayed you and it's wrong. But I don't know how to get out of that situation. I feel trapped, " he said with teary eyes.I sighed. "Bianca, that's not easy to hear. I also feel very hurt."Bianca looked at me with tears in her eyes. "I'm very sorry, Lucas. I know I can't change the past, but I want to fix it.I want us to be able to start over, not just as friends, but more than that."I was silent, thinking about his words. Can I
Bianca stood in front of the mirror, closely following herself. A sly smile was etched on her face as she imagined Lucas returning to her arms. However, his daydream was interrupted by the sound of a knock on the door.Bianca turned her head and let out a long sigh. "Oh, Harry," she murmured. "Why did you have to come now?"He walked towards the door and opened it with a forced smile. In front of the door, Harry stood with a hopeful face."Bianca, I miss you," said Harry, his voice soft but emphatic. "I want us to go back to living together."Bianca stared at Harry for a moment, looking for the right words to dodge his request. "Harry, I am... I still have a lot of work, " he said slowly.Harry frowned. "Why? Aren't We Happy Together?"Bianca pretended to think for a moment, then sighed. "Not so, Harry. I just need time to prepare for my career."Harry stepped forward, approaching Bianca. "I can help you.”Bianca smiled faintly, holding back the frustrated urge. "I know, Harry. But
Luna stood in front of a large window in her office, looking out at the busy city. Behind those tall buildings, he knew that the biggest challenge came from within his own family. Patrison, his father, has always underestimated him since he decided to run the company he once built with his late mother."Luna, I need to talk to you," his father's voice interrupted his thoughts. Patrison entered without knocking, as usual."Please, Dad. What do you want to talk about?” Luna asked, trying to keep her tone professional.Patrison looked at him intently. “You know this company better under my control. You're just a young lady who knows nothing about business.”Luna grinned her teeth. “This company is the result of the hard work of my mother and me. I won't just hand it over.”Patrison snorted. “You are stubborn like your mother. But remember, I have the power in this family.”That night, Luna came home with a heavy heart. Lucas, her husband, was waiting for her in the living room. He kne
In the luxurious living room of the Patrison family home, the atmosphere was tense. Patrison sat in a plush chair, a sly smile etched on his face. Beside him, his brother Terry watched closely, waiting for the next move. Across from them, Luna sat with a serious expression, trying to understand the hidden intentions behind this conversation."Luna, there's something I want to talk to you about," Patrison said, trying to sound friendly. "It's about LH Tower."Luna raised an eyebrow, eyeing her father suspiciously. "What about LH Tower, Dad?" She sensed something amiss, wondering why her husband's company was being mentioned here.Patrison sighed, pretending to look wise. "I think it's time for us, as a family, to take a bigger role in the management of LH Tower. Lucas, your husband, has many responsibilities, and I'm sure he would agree to share some shares or at least give us important positions." His eyes gleamed with his intention.Luna felt her blood boil at her father's request, hi
After an intense meeting with her father and uncle, Luna felt exhausted but relieved.“I hope they don’t bother Lucas,” Luna said.For now, she could still uphold her principles and not let them take control of the company she and Lucas had built together.Luna went home and found Lucas waiting for her in the living room with a warm smile."Luna, are you okay?" Lucas stood from the sofa and approached his wife, pulling her into a warm embrace.Luna pulled away from the hug and looked at her husband with eyes full of fatigue but strong determination."I'm fine, Lucas. Just a bit tired of all the drama they're causing."Lucas nodded, offering silent support, letting Luna share everything in her own time and way.They sat together on the sofa, with Luna leaning on Lucas's shoulder."So, what did they say this time?" Lucas asked gently, not wanting to add to Luna's burden but also wanting to know the details of the recent meeting.Luna sighed deeply before answering, "Father and Uncle Ter
