“Ugh! That bitch! How dare she hold Floyd’s arms?!”Roxane went to the sink and opened the faucet. But she closed it again because she really didn’t have anything to do with it. Roxane sighed and crossed her arms. She looked at her reflection.“You were too bland, Aby. That’s why Dwayne never loved you and left you! You are nothing!” she exclaimed. In her eyes, she was looking at Aby’s smirking face. She remembered how her eyes sparked when Floyd kissed her on the lips. “Fuck you!”The door suddenly opened. Roxane was a bit surprised because of that. But she saw Aby walking inside and looking surprised too.“Oh! I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you were here,” Aby said politely.Roxane rolled her eyes and watched Aby as she went to the sink. She watched her as she did her retouching, which was not even necessary, because her makeup was still okay. She really hated this woman from head to toe.“What are you trying to do, huh?”Aby stopped putting on her lipstick and looked at Roxane’s ref

He looked at Froilan and then continued looking at the rest of his board.“And it looked like we were still not complete.”“We are complete,” Dwayne immediately said. The board members frowned and became confused.“Mister Lim is still not here—”“I said we were complete!” Dwayne exclaimed. He even hit the table hard. “I say when it’s enough, okay?!”Lucas, who was one of the board members too. He also helped get enough shares for Floyd. “But he is still one of us.”“If anyone doesn’t want to be in this room, then you can get out now!”A moment of silence happened insi

“W-What should we do now? You can’t be in jail forever, Dwayne!” Roxane cried.“Who said that I would be in jail forever?! Fuck! Those people! They will see what I can do!”Roxane cried more. Dwayne was in a detention room for now. His hands were cuffed on the table. Roxane was sitting in front of him. She had been crying since Dwayne was taken by the police. But she was not crying because Dwayne was in jail. She was crying because she immediately thought it was Dwayne's end. And she will be nothing if Dwayne can’t get out.“But what should we do?! You need to get out of here and make them pay!”Dwayne glared at Roxane. He knew what she was thinking. But he looked away and took a deep breath. “Where is Ben? Why is no one here?”“Ben is calling your lawyer.”After telling her this, the door was opened, and Ben entered. He was with a man wearing a formal suit and holding a briefcase. He bowed to Dwayne.“Good afternoon, Mister Jacinto. I’m Danilo Montes. I will be your attorney.”Dwayne

Dwayne was the only one who was giving her power.“Urgh! I need to do something!” she grunted.Roxane went to her drawer and checked her things. She hasn’t given up the bank accounts she made. She looked for the account book and was relieved when she saw it. Everything was still there because she hadn’t talked about this to Dwayne. She’ll be fine, but she can’t let go of Dwayne. She knew that he would make a way to get away from it.“He’ll be out.”Roxane kept the account book and decided to take a shower. But she hadn't even entered the bathroom when she heard a knock on her door. It was a successive knock like it was in a hurry. Roxane glared at the door and went there.“What is it?!” she exclaimed.The maid who was knocking looked down. “I-I’m sorry, madam. But there were people below. They’re saying that we
The Secret Life of Him 96. Fired
The deliberation over Dwayne’s case continued. Dwayne was in jail for a week. They tried to convince the station to give him a different room. But no one listened to their words. While Roxane was in the house that Dwayne gave her, no one knew about the place except for the two of them and Ben. She brought five maids just to help her, but she couldn’t go back to the company because she learned that Aby was the new CEO.“What?! How in the hell did it happen?!” she exclaimed. Roxane had just learned from her secretary that Aby was the new CEO.“T-They said that we have a new owner, ma'am. Is it true?”Roxane glared at her. How could the Jacinto network have a new owner?! Roxane decided to go to Dwayne’s office. But to her surprise, she saw Aby sitting on the chair where Dwayne

He massaged his head and then rested his back on the chair. “Yes. Of course.”Aby sat down at his side. “Then why do you suddenly look gloomy? Didn’t you want to fire Roxane?” she asked. “Or do you feel bad about her?” she asked when Floyd didn’t answer her. She rolled her eyes and stood up again. She doesn't know why she suddenly felt something. and she did not like it.Floyd then noticed a change of emotion in Aby. He looked at her as she sat down on her chair. Aby was frowning and doing her job. But Floyd did not mind it and stood up.
The Secret Life of Him 98. Justice is served?
“I want to thank everyone who helped us. I know Trace is happy now.” Jane looked at Trace’s tombstone. Her voice was cracking because of the pain she was feeling. After Dwayne was found guilty, Jane decided to give Trace a mass. Jane looked at Floyd. “Thank you, Floyd. You’ve been a great friend.”Floyd nodded at Jane. He looked at his friend’s tombstone with a smile. They finally got justice. Now Floyd could finally be relieved. He hasn't heard anything from Roxane since Dwayne was found guilty. And he didn’t care about finding out where she was now because Miguel was already in his care. She might have hurt him that much, but Floyd couldn’t do anything to her but cast her away.They had a small gathering at Jane’s house, and then Floyd went to the JL company to talk with his employees.

‘Months ago.’ Raquel became more depressed after Floyd rejected her. After years of waiting for him, he still didn’t choose her. She couldn’t focus on her job, so she was fired too. Raquel became more alcoholic. She was always at the bars, making herself forget the pain. She cut all her connections with her friends and even her family, so no one knew what was happening to her. One night, she was drenching herself with alcohol again. She was dancing in one of the clubs and making herself forget when a man sat beside her. “Looks like you're alone. Can I buy you a drink?” Raquel frowned and looked at her side. It was Alfred, Dwayne’s man. They both didn’t know each other. Raquel stared at his face and smiled. Alfred was bald, but it didn’t lessen his manly features. The tattoos on his body accentuated his bad-boy features. Raquel could see the tattoos on his neck and arms. “Sure,” she answered without minding his intentions. He was not the first one to approach her since she started
