“Are you out of your mind?” Mike yelled, pulling Melissa to himself while he glared at Chris.

“I said, get away from her!” Chris rushed forward, wanting to tear them apart again. However, Jose stepped forward and held Chris. 

Pak! 

A heavyweight slap landed on Chris’s face, his face swung sideways as his lips tore apart. Chris’s eyes were red from anger and pain, his face was swollen but then he struggled against Jose, while he glared at Melissa and Mike. 

On the other hand, everyone there was watching the commotion while Reid and Ren were annoyed that Chris had spoiled the whole thing for them. 

“Bring him to me,” Reid commanded. 

Immediately, Chris was pushed before Reid. His forehead slammed on the ground as he lay flat on the floor. 

Reid bent to Chris’s level, raising him up by the shoulder. 

“I already told you…” He slapped Chris lightly on the face, continuously, and then continued, “You shouldn't ruin this confession. I told you to get lost and now you are here, ruining it.”

However, Reid’s words went into Chris’s ear and flew out of the other. He just wanted to confront his girlfriend but Reid had him locked down. 

Chris’s emotions were getting the better of him and he glared hatefully. 

“You are glaring at me? Do you want to die?” Reid’s face was bloodshot with a murderous gaze. “You do whatever we say. If I tell you to clean after the confession, you do so! Otherwise, I will kill you and dump your body on a dump site.” 

“You are just a fucking cleaner!” Reid spat on Chris’s face. 

Immediately, there was an uproar of laughter as the onlookers pointed at Chris. 

“Hahaha! He is just a cleaner.” 

“I was quite scared when he rushed out, thinking he was some kind of crazy dude. What can a cleaner do?”

Chris bowed his head in shame, as he heard the insults thrown at him. He then shot Melissa a side glance, wishing he could just get her in the palm of his hands. 

On the other hand, Melissa took a step back in fear, her eyes darting around. She shook her head at Chris, silently telling him to keep quiet. How could everyone know that she dated Chris, a common cleaner?!

Although Chris was good academically, he was handsome, he couldn't be compared to Mike. Mike was the richest dude in school, he could spend on her and get her whatever she wanted. Even the flowers he bought for her for his confession were worth a thousand dollars. 

Chris’s wage wasn't even a quarter of that! 

“Why are you whispering, Melissa?” Chris sneered, seeing what she was doing.

“Don’t call my girlfriend with your trashy mouth!” Mike immediately shielded Melissa. 

“Let him go, Reid. I will deal with him myself.” He ordered. 

Swiftly, Reid let go of Chris and Mike came rushing forward. However, Chris was quick to dodge, he shot up to his feet. 

Chris held his painful jaw and pointed at Melissa, “Why are you whispering? Why are you here with Mike?”

Melissa took a step back, shaking her head, “What are you talking about?” 

“Why don't you tell them that you are my girlfriend?”  Chris sneered. 

“Girlfriend?” Ren sneered. 

“This dude is out of his mind!” They laughed, scornfully. 

“Why would a beautiful girl like Melissa date you, a loser?” Reid asked. “Do you think she is your class?” 

The laughter continued and Melissa sighed in relief, seeing that their opinions were in her favor. 

She stepped forward boldly, “Don’t mind his stupid ass. He pursued me, wanting to have me but I never accepted his pursuit. I only took mercy on him and talked to him. Now, he is ranting about me being his girlfriend?” 

“Tch!” She sneered. “If you dare come close to me, Chris, I will make sure you regret it.” She threatened coldly. 

Chris’s gaped in shock. He was shocked that the woman he had spent his savings on, the woman he worked overtime for was denying him. 

“Have… have you forgotten?” He stuttered. “I used all my money just yesterday to get you a gift you liked. How could you say that to me?” 

Chris was hurt. It hurt to love a woman who didn't even hesitate to deny him. What had he done wrong? 

“Me, money?” Melissa snorted. “How much could you afford to give me? You are just being delusional.” She then turned to Mike, “Make him disappear.” 

“You heard her, dumbass! Get lost!” Reid dragged Chris, wanting him to throw him out of the court. 

“Before you go…” Mike stepped forward, dipping his hand into his pocket. “Take this!” He flung up to twenty 100 dollar bills on Chris’s body. 

“Get a life, pauper.” He sneered. 

Chris was humiliated. His eyes darted around seeing how they ridiculed him and it was all because of Mike and Melissa. 

As he was being dragged out, something sinister snapped in his head, and he escaped from Reid. 

He rushed forward with so much force and anger and before Mike could comprehend what was going on, Chris punched him in the face. 

“Ahh!!!” 

Shocked gasps filled the air as Mike staggered backward, holding his broken nose which dripped with blood.

Chris could only move slowly, his body stiff from the thoughts in his head. “Why are you here, Dad? Are you playing pretend in someone else’s house?” Chris asked with a displeased tone. He would be mad if his dad was doing this because he wanted a feel of luxury. “You and Uncle Steve are in on this, right?”“Of course not.” Jones chuckled, alongside Steve.

All this was too surreal for him.“And all those belong to me?”“Yes. What car do you want? You can choose any.” Steve stretched his hand forward and Chris stepped forward, touching the cars with a hint of curiosity.

It was so easy for Chris to throw him off like he weighed nothing.“How dare you touch me!” The man was annoyed that he was easily tackled and he went for Chris again, aiming to throw a punch. However, Chris was quick to dodge making the crazy man punch the air.“You are testing my patience.” Chris was growing furious. He was still trying to be civil because he had somewhere to go and he didn’t want to embarrass himself in a public space but this crazy man wasn’t about to let him go.“And what the fuck are you going to do? Huh? Do you know who I am?” The man pointed a finger at Chris with a condescending gaze, “I am Bastien, haven’t you heard of that name around here before?”Chris’s patience was wearing thin, he was past the time when he would let people bully him and now that he had his father’s backing, he was fearless.

I hope we didn't delay for too long.”“Nahh… it’s alright.” Chris waved his hand in dismissal. “What’s your name?”“Mason, young master.” Mason straightened up and then his eyes zeroed in on Bastien who had his mouth gaped in shock. “How do you want us to punish the man who offended the heir of the Westminster family, young master?” “What?” Bastien let out in shock and not only was he shocked, but the car insurance expert was also shocked. “Little kid!

You dare talk to me about respect?” She shouted, and even pointed her fingers, poking Chris in the head.“Can you see anyone dressed like you in here?

    “Mia, is everything ready?” Mia heard a thick voice, coming straight from outside her door. She sat before the mirror with a weary look on her face, as if she was going to fall apart any second from that moment. However, she mustered up the courage to reply. “Yes, mother. Everything is ready.” She said, her tone croaked and heavy. In the next second, she heard receding footsteps and she knew she was alone in the house for now.

    Three days later…Chris was done with the project he was handling and as he successfully launched it, he handed the rest of the work over to butler Rico. At this point, he was at the rooftop of the company building and Butler Rico had a blank look on his face. But the way he was so stiff, made his emotions very obvious. “You can come visit sometime soon…” Chris patted his shoulders. Behind him was Ria, who looked around warily, hoping all this wasn't a setup. She couldn't believe that she was finally going home! But at the back of her mind, she wondered if Chris really wanted to give her freedom or subject her to even more misery. She could see now that there was no escaping from him and she had to do whatever she could to make him cast his merciful eyes on her. “Goodbye…” Chris whispered to butler Rico. He turned around to get into the plane, while the other Ricos followed after him. Ria was the last to board the plane. As soon as they took off, Chris called out to her, “Ria, do

    Ria’s lips quivered at the sound of Chris’s voice and his choice of words. Her eyes looked away from him with an embarrassed look as she bowed her head in shame. “What… what are you saying?” She whispered, trying to act clueless. For the past grueling hours she had spent in the cell, she had been hoping Chris wouldn't gain access to her phone but now, she wasn't sure if he had. The way he looked at her, showed irritation and dislike. She had worked so hard to be close to him, so he could look at her and not Mia. But she ended up ruining everything when she fell into Mateo’s trap. No matter how she wanted to be with Chris, she chose herself at that moment. And now, she regretted it. When Chris had spared her life, she thought she could have a second chance at her life and so, she contacted Reid, Ren, and Mike with a hidden phone she had for years.

You didn’t want to see me anytime soon.” Victoria smiled as she walked into the shooting range with a playful look. “Also, you are still injured.”“I am leaving,” Chris responded, adjusting his stance due to his injury.“But that doesn’t mean you have to overwork yourself, you still have to manage a project, don’t you?” Victoria wasn’t surprised that Chris was leaving, she was only worried about him stressing. However, Chris had a question for her. “Why does my father want me back home?” He asked. This was the same way he was told to leave home, without a clue of whatever he was going to do back at home. And now, the same was happening. “I think you should ask him–”“Do you think he is going to tell me?” I cut her off, irritatedly. “No.” She shook her head. “I shouldn't be blamed for that though.”“Yes. But you know why! I need to know too. Don’t keep me in the dark.” Chris was pleading with his eyes. Somehow, he seemed to suspec

    “What?” Chris’ frown turned even deeper as Rico placed a few documents on his table. He stared at the documents for a long while before taking them up as he was scared that he would find something that would shatter his mind and heart even further.What did Butler Rico mean by saying Ria betrayed him from the start? He couldn’t wrap his head around it as Chris wondered whether it all started back at his home. Was it when he met Ria at first at the party? Or was it when she obsessively wanted to associate with him? Either way, he would only find out when he finally checked the document.And as soon as Chris laid his eyes on the contents of the documents, he looked shocked, and his mind blew up in disbelief. His eyes scanned through several chats between three different people Ria had been in contact with. None of them was Mateo, but they were Reid, Ren, and Mike.Ria was in close contact with them and it seemed she had the old phone ever since with her and one peculiar chat caught Chri

  • From The Start

    Immediately, Chris knew he needed to speak to Ria about what the hell she was planning this time. She never learned her lessons and a part of him started to regret why he spared her life. As soon as he got down from the bed, he winced in pain due to the bullet wounds. At the same time, Rico walked in with a frown. “You need to take a rest.” He cautioned Chris however, Chris shook his head and attempted to walk past him. “I need to speak to Ria. That bitch…” Chris cursed but Rico held him back. “I knocked her out…” He said. “She wouldn't stop trashing and trying to attack me…” He explained what happened and Chris finally calmed down. He slowly walked back to the bed, taking deep breaths to calm himself. On the other hand, Butler Rico calmly waited for Chris to explain his outburst. “Ria is in contact with the bastard working with Mateo.” Chris dropped the bomb but Rico wasn't surprised, his frown only deepened. “How sure are you?” Rico asked. Quickly, Chris requested his phone

    Immediately, the air turned tense and suffocated not only Ria but also Chris. He looked at the device that had fallen from her pockets, with so much curiosity. It was a phone, one that she wasn't supposed to have. Ria let out a shaky breath as she looked at Chris with a pleading expression. “I can explain.” She whispered. She tried to free herself from Rico’s grip but he held onto her tighter. Chris looked disappointed and curious as to why she had a phone in her hands when she wasn't supposed to have one. “Right…explain…” He nodded at her, while he folded his arms. He signaled for Rico to let her go and Ria fell to her knees, her head bowed slightly. However, for a few more minutes, she kept shaking on the floor. “Speak!” Chris thundered. Ria flinched and raised her head hesitantly to look at him. However, with his eyes blazing with fury, she looked down, unable to speak. Chris let out a sigh as he wasn't going to force her to speak. He signaled at Rico, telling him to take her

    “Get the doctor!” Rico yelled at Ria who still stood frozen in shock. Immediately, Rico’s voice jokyed her back to reality and she followed after them worriedly. She looked haggard from having to work for hours and having little to no rest. Her body was starting to fail her and she had never been made to work so much like this. However, with her still alive, she hoped Chris would one day forgive her. But then, would he? When he finally realized everything she did behind his back. She didn't just become a traitor overnight. Ria rushed to get the standby doctor who worked at the base and they quickly rushed to check on Chris. “His wounds are festering…” The doctor complained, as he took out the blood-soaked bandages and cleaned the wounds. “Also, he needs a lot of rest to replenish the blood he lost. At this rate, if he doesn't slow down, he might turn anemic.”The doctor complained as he knew that over the past few weeks, Chris had made the infirmary his second home. The training h
