"Monroe how can you just conclude that you don't want the woman that I picked for you? You did not even try to see her. Once you see her I'm sure that you are going to change your mind. Just see her first okay. I am already like this. Old and weak. Can't you do this for your grandfather?" John asked. He was trying to use his health as a leverage to get his grandson to do what he wants. He really wanted him to get married to Lorena Bonavista. Monroe sighed. It wasn't as if he did not care about his grandfather's health. It was just that there was no way he could let another person into his life. There is only one way that he will get married. If he finds April. He already started looking for her a long time ago but there has been no news of her at all. It was as if she disappeared. But he had refused to believe that she did not exist in this world. He just wanted her to be alive somewhere. "Grandpa, don't worry you are not going to die. We have the best doctors here taking ca
But it wasn't Just anyone they were talking about here. It was Mr. Daniel. The powerful and cold CEO of Helian Group. She could not afford to be rude to him. And besides, she did not want to give up this marriage! She already has her eyes set on Monroe! She was sure that there isn't a man that she won't be able to get. As long as she wants him, she will be able to get him! She just has to be persistent. Monroe Hakon, it will definitely be hers!She had to be sensible and not lose her temper like this. If he thinks that he is going to get rid of her by being rude to her and saying some harsh words then he is in for a surprise. If anything, the words that he said to her made her even more determined to get Monroe to fall in love with her! The both of them just have to get married first. Then she is going to work on making Monroe Hakon fall for her!There was a sinister smile on her face when she thought about that. Quickly, she stopped smiling. Her expression was quickly replaced by a
Daniel was in the company when he had received a call from his father that they were going to the hospital to see John, the grandfather of Mr. Daniel. He knew from what his father had told him that this marriage was going to happen because of the old man. He wanted to make a good impression on him too and so even though his father told him not to come he still decided to come and curry favour from the man and probably even Monroe Hakon himself! He stopped in front of the hospital and saw his father and Lorena. From the look of it, they were arguing. He came closer only to hear Lorena saying those things to his father.He was beyond angry! Just who does this woman think that she is? Does she think that she can talk to them however she wants because she is the one who has to get married? What? She will get married and not help the company? What a joke! "What do you think that you are saying right now Lorena? Do you think that you have become a big shot since you are going to marry Monro
He was already sick and tired of her. Dealing with such a scheming woman, he suddenly felt drained. And to think that he was almost sure that she is that person...! This is all his grandfather's fault. He did not want to go back to see him . His grandfather was only going to ask him about what the both of them had talked about and he did not want that. Instead of taking the elevator to his grandfather's ward, he took the elevator to the first floor instead.Lorena watched as the man walked away. She could not say anything to him. He already saw through her tricks! This person, just who is he? Looks like getting him to fall in love with her won't be as easy as she had thought. But if anything, the experience with him made her even more determined. She is going to make sure to get married to him, and she is going to make him fall in love with her. First, the both of them have to get married. To do that, she would need to work on his grandfather. He seemed like he really liked her a lot
They really don't know where they stand. The person that the old man wants is her! "I see that you really are something Daniel. Despite being so old do you really not get what is going on here right now? What? I am only going to marry Monroe Hakon because your sister doesn't want it? Do you really think that you sister is someone who can compete with me? If she really thinks that she can compete with me then tell her to come back and do that right now! Just think about it. It will be great if she is the one who is going to marry Monroe right? Tell her to come back and we'll see. We will see if that Lydia is someone who can raise a candle up to me!" Lorena said. These people don't know where they stand. Lorena walked away from them. She really did not want to bother with them anymore!Peter watched as she walked away. He was really thinking about what she had said. He thought that the reason why the old man reached out to him and talked about Lorena and Monroe getting married was bec
Whenever the both of them met anywhere, she did not spare any efforts to make things hard for Brenda. And now she is working in the same drama with her. Brenda did it on purpose to get to her."I really don't know what happened Lorena. I checked and it was just an unknown actress! I don't know what happened! I am sure that Brenda did something because she wanted to get to you. You must not let her do that!" Lena said. She immediately blamed Brenda for her own sake.Lorena rolled her eyes. What is she thinking? Does she think that she is as stupid as her? Of course she knows that Brenda is doing this on purpose. She changed the actress at the last minute because she wanted to give her a hard time. And she did it so discreetly. Lorena knew that she must have been planning on this for a long time ago. She waited for her to accept the drama before she changed the actress! She really had a good plan to trap her and it worked!She definitely did it on purpose. She was targeting her and she
Jenna's heart skipped a beat when she heard Lorena say this.The woman is truly mean. Back then when that happened and Brenda's career was on the verge of collapse, she was the one who kept running around trying to save her at first. Brenda almost gave up. But Jenna was not complaining though. Because Brenda saw her running around so much, she was filled with a determination to get her career back on track. She really worked hard and the both of them were able to get here because of that.Now this woman was bringing it up to make fun of the both of them. It was something that she caused after all! Well since she wants to play the bitch in front of them, the both of them can definitely play that game! "Really? You do realize that it's all because of what you did back then right? If people know that about the things that you did then just to get a role in a drama, would they still love you? Don't think that you will be able to hide the things that you have done forever Lorena. It won't
"I already told you, your grandfather, his condition keeps getting worse and worse.""We are giving him treatments for now but we really don't know when all of that is going to stop working. You really need to stop triggering him. I know that it is not in my place to say this but your grandfather really wants to see you get married. Why can't you just do it? I'm sure that he will be able to live for much longer if you do as he says and get married" the director said.Monroe sighed. He really wanted his grandfather to get better but is he ready to do that? To get married for his sake? For his grandfather, he already knew since a long time ago that he was ready to do anything and sacrifice anything for him. But, he really did not want to have anything to do with Lorena Bonavista!She really is terrible woman. He did not know much about her but after one meeting with her he could already see how scheming she is. Monroe looked back at his grandfather. He saw the pitiful look on his face.
"Yes, CEO Davinc, you dont need to let that kind of woman affect you... She's..." Reina did not get to finish her words before Davinc pushed her away directly and because Reina wasn't expecting the push, she fell to the ground with a loud thud. However, no one cared about her and no one cared to check if she was okay or not. Their eyes were all focused on Davinc who seemed that he has been pissed off right now. He glanced at Reina like he was looking at dirt. "Stay away from me. You disgust me!" Davinc said. Originally, he did not have any opinion of this woman. After all, he had seen lots of women who under the guise of a secretary are the mistresses of their bosses. He had seen it so much that he had already grown numb to it. He did not care about it at all! But seeing how this woman has been so rude to Vida since she walked in, coupled with the things that Vida had said earlier.He hated this disgusting woman right now! Reina looked like she was about to cry but the man who
Davinc first looked at Vida who was still as polite as ever. She did not even turn to look when a woman was handed over to him like that.Does she not care about him at all? The fact that Vida has already moved on from him and doesn't care about whatever he does makes Davinc angry. He hated the fact that she did not seem to care. He wants to make her feel terrible, but it seems that nothing is working. He looked at Reina and smiled at her. "Come over here," he said. The woman was overjoyed. She thought that he will tell her to scram, but he told her to come! The Davinc is interested in her! She glanced at Vida who had a cold look and distant look on her face. In her heart, she sneered. Does she think that she will be able to attract the man just because she acts like this? She is dreaming! Reina walked directly to where Vida was sitting and shoved her away as she sat next to Davinc. Vida was a bit annoyed that the woman just shoved her away rudely but as usual, she did not sho
"Why are you looking at me?""Do you know how to drive?" Davinc asked. Vida mechanically nodded her head. A Classmate had dragged her along to take driving lessons while she was in high school. Of course, she can drive. "Then drive then! You aren't expecting your boss to drive you right?" Davinc asked with a sneer on his face. Vida sighed in her heart. She was already cursing Davinc over and over again in her mind. It is just driving a car. He should have told her if he wants her to drive the car! Why does he keep acting as if he is on his period?If he doesn't want to see her, then he can just let her go. He can even fire her and make sure that she doesn't work for this company again. Vida was sure that everything will be perfect that way. Why does he insist on torturing her and himself? It can't be that Davinc is a masochist now right? Davinc's words broke into her thoughts. "What are you daydreaming about now? Aren't you going to drive? Do you want us to be late? Can you take
Vida suddenly looked up at Davinc. She was smiling so sweetly at him. For a second, Davinc was blinded by her smile. He was sure that his heart must have skipped more than a beat. "I thought the same too. You are so handsome and rich. There's no way that you'll still be thinking about me. If you want a secretary there are lots of qualified women who are fit to do the job....why do you need me? You can just let me go to the design department. That way you won't have to see me and I won't be an eyesore to you" Vida said. She was still smiling sweetly. Davinc's brain went blank before he registered the meaning of the words that she had said. It turns out that Vida has tricked him! Good, very good! Vida has learned how to trap people with her words! What else has she learned in these seven years? He wanted to know! "I see that you've learned to use your words well in seven years," Davinc said. "Thanks for the compliment sir," Vida said. She was still smiling. "Compliment your h
Davinc raised his eyes and looked at Emelda lazily.Davinc's gaze made Emelda's heart skip a beat.There was a tingling feeling in her best but Emelda did not allow herself to think about it. She did not want to think about those feelings at all! The truth was, Emelda's heart wasn't made of stone. Being the fiance of such an excellent man for seven years, it wasn't her heart wasn't moved over the years. But experience had taught her that the man's heart will never belong to her. She did not want to be the loser in this game so she forced herself not to care about him. The Davinc looked at Emelda lazily and said, "since you are such a wonderful actress, I'm anticipation your guidance!" Emelda thought that her heart had gone numb over the years and that this man won't be able to hurt her ever again but it turned out that she was wrong. His words still affected her.She looked at him weirdly for a few seconds but then she pulled her eyes away from him. No matter what, she still ha
Seven Years Later -She ran outside to meet the woman outside. "where's my mom?" She demanded. "I'm sorry Vida. It's too late. I already sent her to the mortuary!" Lisa said. Vida felt her legs go weak, then she crashed to the ground. Mortuary....mortuary....her mother is dead?!Vida stood in front of her mother's grave. She had a smile plastered on her face. She was trying her best not to cry. Seven years had already passed just like that. Just like that, it was the seventh year since she got the news of her mother's death. The world had changed so much in seven years. She felt like she was the only one who was still stuck in the same place.Vida placed the fresh white lollies on her mother's grave. "Mom, how have you been doing on that side? Sometimes, I wish that you would hate me. I know that you can't bear to hate me but I'm a terrible daughter. How did I not know that you were sick? Why did I leave for school? Why did I leave you alone?" Vida asked. This was the thing th
The Davinc was glaring at his father. "What are you trying to do dad?" He asked. He could already tell that something was going on. His father was trying to keep him back on purpose. They already know that Vida is here. And they are targeting Vida! Davinc's eyes were red. He did not know what his father is going to do to Alexa but he knew that it won't be anything good. His father is someone who will go to extreme lengths to get what he wants. He doesn't care who he has to hurt as long as he can get what he wants. Davinc's father looked at the time. He smirked happily. By now, Esther would have already done what she wants to do. She did not tell him what exactly she is going to do and he did not ask either. As long as it can break up this puppy love of Davinc, then he is all for it. He won't let his son lose his head just because of some puppy love in high school. He smirked victoriously when he saw the look on Davinc's face. "Did you think that you will be able to keep that
Emelda was doing makeup and Esther was on the phone with someone. "Is everything prepared?" She asked the person on the phone. It was obvious that they were familiar with each other. "Yes. Davinc and the girl already arrived. They are at the hotel just opposite the banquet hall" the person reported. "Alright. Just make sure to get the girl away without anyone noticing. Remember, make it seem as if she is the one who left on her own. You must not make a mistake. Don't hurt her. She can't get hurt. Do it well" Esther said and ended the call."You don't need to worry now Emelda. Nothing will go wrong with your engagement" Emelda said. There was a sinister look on her face. "But mom....are you just going to let her go after the engagement is over?" Emelda asked.It wasn't her mother's style to let someone whom she perceived as a threat go. She would not have wanted to ruin Vida then. "Emelda....what do you think will have more effect? Hurting Vida and having Davinc find out that it w
"You don't need to worry about Vida. Anyway, I no longer have my son with me. I'll just take it that I gained a daughter from all of this. I'm sure that she'll recover from this" Lisa said in between sobs. It wasn't clear if she was trying to reassure herself or the person that was lying on the bed."Thanks a lot...in my next life, I'll be your friend!" Vida and Davinc had already started dating. The both of them were so high profile in their relationship that everyone knew about it. Of course, they were people who wanted to pass out from anger but there was nothing that they could do about it After the threats that Davinc had issued, they knew better than to cause trouble for Vida. The only thing that they could do was to stay away from her and not talk to her. Besides Cynthia and Lily, no one else talked to Vida. But Vida did not care at all. As long as they did not bully her, she was fine with it. It was good enough that they did not come to ask for trouble. That was already
