Bound By Paper Hearts Alice's Pain
'What a cousin or sister? How is that even possible?' Andrew was bewildered as he thought about it.For the first time since Vicky began working for him, he failed to unearth such crucial information which astonished Andrew."Is Monica your sister?""No, no, no, no..." Alice gestured with a dismissive sway of her hand."No, she's not my sister; don't you grasp it? We bear distinct titles. She's my cousin, the daughter of my aunt, but adored by everyone in the family."Sadness crept into Alice's voice; tears gathered in her eyes. She sniffed, took the final sip from her glass, and emphatically placed it on the table. Andrew perceived her pain in her words, yet the undisclosed truth remained a mystery that Vicky couldn't unveil."Do you feel jealous of her?""Hmmm, no..." Alice shook her head emphatically."In fact, it's the opposite. She's been envious of me all her life. She covets everything I possess." Alice wiped away tears, gently rubbing her rosy cheeks.Andrew empathized with her

Her relaxation was short-lived as her phone rang, revealing "Mr. Money calling" on the screen, prompting her to spring back into action."Ahh, why is he calling me now?" Andrew's call stirred memories of last night's embarrassment for Alice.She was hesitant for a long time before receiving the call, but ended up sliding the green button before it slipped away."What took you so long?" Andrew's usual stern tone carried an added edge, leaving Alice sensing his irritation.Alice couldn't help but think, 'Did I annoy him last night when I was tipsy?' as she nervously bit her lower lip."Why did you call all of a sudden?""Get ready in an hour," Andrew's auth
Bound By Paper Hearts Misunderstanding
"Mason, for heaven's sake, spare me from repeating myself. I've already told you, and I'll say it once more – I don't know where Alice is. Stop calling me for the same answer!" Skylar's frustration echoed through the call.Mason persistently dialed her number countless times in the last two days, skeptical of Skylar's ignorance regarding Alice's whereabouts. However, even when contacted through a private number, Skylar remains clueless about Alice's location."Skylar, mind your language. Disrespect is not acceptable, regardless of the situation. Failure to adhere to this will result in consequences, and I'll ensure you face termination."Mason's vexation heightened due to his inability to reach Alice, and Skylar's temper served as the final straw. His discontentment grew more palpable."Do as you please, but please refrain from calling me again." Skylar ended the call and rested her head in her hands."How could she have the nerve to hang up on me?" Mason seethed, infuriated by Skylar'

They are on some other route."Excuse me, Mr. Kingston, you missed the turn to my place; please take a U-turn."Alice thought he made a mistake, but that wasn't the case."We're heading in the right direction," Andrew remarked nonchalantly, then abruptly made a sharp turn and slammed on the brakes."But this is..."Alice's sentence trailed off as Andrew, with a click of a remote control in his car, opened the imposing iron gate of a mansion and smoothly drove inside."This is my private mansion and our bridal house."'What?' It was as if a bomb had dropped on Alice's head; the idea of living with him felt overwhelming, and she still needed her space."I'm only at home in my
Bound By Paper Hearts The Press Conference

Alice replied with a mischievous grin."Now, what's that supposed to mean?" Skylar scratched her head."You'll find out soon enough." Alice said with a wink, leaving Skylar convinced she had a plan."You've become quite mysterious lately. First, you postponed our meeting last evening, and now you've barged into my office early today with fresh news.""What's going on? Is there anything wrong with you, and I am oblivious?"

Bound By Paper Hearts The Audition

We need to talk," Andrew said with authority.Alice anticipated this fallout, having witnessed her shoulder the blame for Monica. He must be furious, and she can't face him right now."I am afraid I can't make it. I have something important on schedule." Alice denied it polit

"Oh no, I overslept," she exclaimed, quickly securing her long hair in a messy bun before leaving the room."This enormous mansion is really not my comfort zone. Ah, I miss the coziness of my own home," she muttered, continuing her hunt for something."Are you looking for something?"A sudden voice from behind made Alice jump in fear. "You startled me," she exclaimed, patting her heart as she turned around.Seeing Andrew in workout gear for the first time left her dumbfounded. His built-up chest and biceps were showcased in a snug vest, and his typically neat hair now tousled, giving him an unexpectedly alluring, out-of-the-world look."Finished admiring the view?" Andrew's finger snapped in front of her face, pulling her out of reverie, and he strolled into the kitchen, with her following suit."I wasn't ogling on you, no way," Alice quipped from behind.Andrew turned, gave her a look, and playfully rolled his eyes."Th
