Alexander couldn't sleep for the following days, because he couldn't stop worrying about Sharmaine. But she was right, she doesn't need to do this just because he was going to get married soon, but it was only Alex whom she has right now."So, are you still working at his company?" Chris' mom asked her.Sharmaine just got home from work. Her setup inside the Adam's house was to eat after they already ate. Good thing, the maids are very kind and nice to her."It's none of your business. I am working to earn." she mumbled and just walked straight upstairs.She knew she wasn't going to stay there longer, but she had no choice for the moment, because she couldn't still afford to rent or buy herself an apartment or a condo. Plus, she doesn't want to call Alexander and for his help again."It's a miracle that you're home early." Chris scoffed.He was inside their room when she opened the door. Sharmaine didn't react and just went straight inside the bathroom to take her shower, besides she
"I am sorry, am I late?" Sharmaine shyly asked him.She just arrived at the restaurant and Alexander waited for her for five minutes."Nah, I just came as well. I already ordered for us. I ordered your favorite." he said.Sharmaine instantly blushed and doesn't know and get why he was doing this. She just looked at him and sighed."Alex, why are you doing this? I thought you hate me?" she asked him.Alexander just scoffed a bit and shrugged his shoulder. He could see that she was very confused by his sudden actions toward her."No reason." he just said.Sharmaine just shyly sat and looked at him. She could see that Alexander wanted to ask her about something, but he needs some time to utter it out."So, did they know you came out?" he asked her.Sharmaine knew he was pertaining to Chris and his parents."Yeah, Chris and his mother, because his dad was still at work when I left their house." she blurted.Alexander nodded and looked at her. He made sure that Chris never touched or hurt
"Thank you, Miss Bueno, for this wonderful meeting for both of us tonight. Although Mr. Ferrer didn't make it, still, he was so lucky to have a right hand like you." the client said and shook his hand.Shane just chuckled and appreciated what he said to her."Thank you, sir. I bet he must be very happy as well that you finally signed the contract and be part of us. I am so happy as well." she said and nodded.The client just chuckled as well and shrugged his shoulder."Nah, no worries about it. By the way, I am going to pay for all of these, don't bother." the client told her.Shane thanked him again and even send him outside after the meeting. After that, she decided to go back to their table and watched Alexander. She decided to send him a message, but looks like he wasn't holding his phone."Really? he doesn't care about anything as long as he was with that woman. He lied to me. I hate him." she groaned.Shane was very jealous and hated him very much for what he did to her. She nev
Sharmaine could see how sad he was, which made her to pat his shoulder and look into his eyes. Alex's eyes were so sad, and she felt like she has the chance to grab it. Little do they know, their face was getting closer and closer... until... they kissed."I am so sorry! I shouldn't have done that." Alexander said.He pulled away from the kiss and Sharmaine was disappointed and went sad."I am sorry as well." she sighed.Alexander closed his eyes and took a deep deep breath."I think it's time for you to go home. Chris might be looking for you. I will send you home." he said.Sharmaine just nodded and has no choice, but to go now as well. Besides, she doesn't want Chris or his parents to be mad at her. After a while, they just arrived, but Alexander chose not to drive near the Adams' front house, because they might see him."Thank you again, Alex. I know what happened a while back was a mistake. I need to go. See you again." she said and smiled genuinely at him.Alex nodded and smiled
Alexander arrived home spaced out. He wanted to call Shane, but his hand doesn't want to move and dial her number. He just groaned and sighed."Alexander? is everything okay?" Maria showed up.She was looking so worried while staring at him. Alexander just shrugged his shoulder and smiled at her like he was just fine."No, I mean, there's nothing wrong, aunt Maria." he said.Maria doesn't believe him, because she could really see that he wasn't fine."O-kay, are you sure?" she asked him again.Alexander just nodded once again and went upstairs. As he closed the door of his room, he couldn't stop releasing a deep breath. He doesn't know what to do."What am I gonna do? she broke our wedding off already." he sighed.He knew it was his fault, but he couldn't stop realizing he just lied to her. He doesn't even know that they were going to the same place as he was eating with Sharmaine. Speaking of her, Alexander sent her a message that he was already home, because she told him to text her
Sharmaine as well scoffed and rolled her eyes."I am sorry, miss Bueno, but what did you just say?" she asked her.Shane just cleared her throat and slowly looked at her. She could see that Sharmaine was pissed, which made her happier, because she loved seeing her getting upset, pissed, or irritated."Oh, it was you, I am sorry I didn't see you there, but I think it was you who bumped into me." Shane said genuinely told her and smiled.Sharmaine just sighed and shrugged her shoulder."I know you were so upset of me just because you saw me and him last night. Let me tell you this, you might not know thsi, but because you pushed me to, I am going to tell you then." she smirked.Shane went curious."What is it?" she asked her.Sharmaine just chuckled and sighed."Alexander called me and invited me out. And you want to know the best and exciting part? he told me that he still loves and care for me." she said.Shane's eyes grew bigger and her heart beats so fast. Her hands are shivering or
Shane couldn't focus on her work, because she kept on thinking about what Alexander told her a while back that she was cute. She even groaned when she saw the clock. It was near lunch already, and she knew Alexander was going to come over to her office, because he was taking her out for lunch."Should I go?" she groaned.She doesn't want him to think that she was easy to get, because if she goes with him, he'll think that she already forgave him."You should." her heart said."No, not a thing!" her mind said.Shane just closed her eyes and groaned. While she was thinking about it, Alexander just came inside her office without knocking with his smirk."Can't you even knock?" she mumbled.Alexander just scoffed and sighed."Come on, that doesn't work on me. You are not even also knock before entering my office." he said.Shane just scoffed and sighed. She knew he was waiting for her."So, can we go?" he asked her.She cleared her throat and wanted to test him if he was going to wait for
"That's such a wonderful story, but do you think you can make me forget what you did to me? Hmm?" she raised her right eyebrow looking at him.Alexander just chuckled and scoffed. "Nah. I am not trying to hypnotize you with my story just for you to forget what happened, okay? Seriously, it's not that big deal, but I know I messed up and I lied to you, but I already told you the reason why." he mumbled.Shane just looked at him, and closed her eyes. It was her ritual to always close her eyes, and pray it will never happen. Alexander looked at her curiously."Wa-it, are you praying? I mean, if yes, it's already too late, because we almost finish our food." he said to her.Shane didn't say anything, and after she prayed. She released a deep breath and inhaled another fresh air. Alexander just couldn't help, but to laugh."What was that?" he asked her.Shane chuckled and sighed."Well, it's my secret." she said."Secret? that was unfair." he complained.Shane just looked at him, and smir
