The Secret Life of Him 30. The fire
Floyd couldn’t answer Minerva. He just heard Minerva keep on coughing on the other line. He didn’t know that she was still there. More importantly, why was his company burning?!“Fuck! Wait, Minerva! I’ll go there now!” “P-Please!” Floyd rushed back inside. Raquel and Trace looked at him in confusion when he suddenly took his bag. “Where are you going?” Raquel asked. “I need to go back to the company. It’s burning!” “What?” The two of them stood up too. Floyd did not wait for them anymore and went out again. He needed to save Minerva. He immediately found a taxi and rode there. When he reached the company, there were firemen already on the site. Some passerby was watching the company. Floyd's eyes widened when he saw that the company was already burning from the top. ‘What happened here?’ he asked himself. He immediately went in the entrance but some police who were also already at the site stopped him. “You can’t go in, sir! It’s dangerous!” “No! There is still someone inside
The Secret Life of Him 31. Saving her
“Is it done?” asked Dwayne over his phone. He was standing in front of the window and over viewing the dark outside of their mansion.“Yes, boss. That building is now falling.” “You know I cannot get my name connected to this, okay?” “Of course. You don’t have to worry, sir.” “I’ll ask my secretary to send you the money tomorrow,” he said, and then hung up the phone. Dwayne took the glass of whiskey and poured it into his glass. He couldn’t stop smiling and thinking that the JL network was now burning. He doesn’t care. All those who tried to make him the enemy will fall down hard. Dwayne drank the alcohol and felt the burning sensation in his throat through his stomach. “Yes!” he said happily, as he couldn’t contain the satisfaction that he was feeling right now. And at that moment, the door of their room was opened hard. Then Roxane came rushing. “Honey! Dwayne!” Roxane went to Dwayne’s side. “Did you hear that the JL network is burning now?” Dwayne looked at Roxane for a second
The Secret Life of Him 32. The Axe Gang
Floyd was relieved when he saw that Minerva was really okay. She was still unconscious because of the smoke she inhaled. That was why he couldn’t call her anymore. She lost consciousness while talking with her. Floyd was seated on a couch facing Minerva’s bed. He never removed his eyes from Minerva when they arrived in the room. Jude’s phone suddenly rang and he answered it. It was Johnson Lim. “Okay, master.” Jude went to Floyd’s side and bowed while giving the phone to him. “Young master. Your father wanted to talk with you.” Floyd came back to his senses. He was busy thinking about the fire. Though Minerva was okay now and they never heard any casualties. He still cannot stop worrying. He took a deep breath and got the phone from Jude’s hand. “Father.” “Floyd, my son. How are you?” Johnson Lim asked in a low voice. He was about to sleep when he heard about the news. “I’m… I-I’m okay, Father. You don’t have to worry about me. I was not at the scene when the fire happened.
The Secret Life of Him 33. The Actress
When Floyd accepted his life as Johnson Lim's son, he never thought this would happen. He thought he just needed to learn how to become his heir. But no one told him that he would need to fight for his life too. That the business world was this dirty. Dwayne Jacinto, Floyd can't think why he would burn the JL network. Did he learn that he was the owner already? But that was outrageous! How can a man be so cruel? Though, he never really cared about what had been lost to him now. He can immediately create a new building for his new company. But thinking that life was almost lost because of his actions was what he could never accept. “Sir! You must stop this madness!” Jude stood in front of Floyd. He immediately bowed when he saw Floyd’s glaring eyes. “P-Please! I can’t let you go, sir. You said you wanted them to learn. You want to get your son! How are you going to get Miguel if you rush on them now?” “Maybe I can get my son faster if they know now.” “S-Sir, please! I don’t want yo

Floyd waited until a doctor came to their room to check on Carla. He felt upset seeing more bruises on her legs. His curiosity grew more because of it. He was at the side just waiting for the doctor. Minerva, who was still in bed, was watching too.“We will prepare a room for you, Miss Carla,” said the doctor.Carla’s eyes widened and shook her head. “N-No! I don’t want to be alone, please.” She looked at Floyd. “Please.”Floyd cleared his throat and went to Carla’s side. “It’s okay, doctor. She can stay here.”“Okay. But she needed a rest.”“Ahm. You can bring another bed here instead,” Minerva said.&
The Secret Life of Him 35. Secret life continued
Floyd decided to take care of Carla. Jude took her to a vacation house with her family. Because they learned that Carla's manager was looking for her. He, too, never got a chance to confront Dwayne anymore because they saw how big the fire cost them. But it was just easy for Floyd to fix it. He hired some men to check about the Axe gang for more evidence about the incident. Because they cannot file any case against anyone without evidence. But his secret life continued. The JL network stopped operating for a week to find a new place. Luckily, the fire might be big but they didn’t lose all their important files. The scripts they needed and other tapes for their shows. They just needed to buy new equipment because it had burned down. “I know that a lot of you now are disheartened about what happened to us,” Minerva said. She was on the stage in front of the JL network’s employees. They rented a building for their temporary place. They cannot let go of their employees because they n

“Will this be really okay?” Carla asked in hesitation.Minerva smiled at Carla and nodded. “Yes. Don’t worry. Our attorney has already sent your request for the termination of your contract with the Jacinto network. And it’s immediate.”“They will ask for money, for sure. They will never let me go that easy. I-I'm worried. What if they hurt my family?”“Don't worry about money. We are filling your case now. Anyone from the Jacinto network is not allowed to get near you. Or your family. All you need to do now is to focus on your therapy. Okay?”Carla sighed. They had been living in the house that Minerva gave them. Since then, she and her family have never gone out of that house. She had a lot of her friends telling her that Norman, her manager, was looking for her. Some are trying to get information that she knew it was because of him too.“Okay. Thank you.”&n
