When she heard that stern voice, she gradually opened her eyes. She saw that Sean was rushing to stop her cousin's hand from striking her face. "You're such a jerk too! Cheater! Get your head around you. You thought this cousin of mine was innocent, didn't you? She's sneaky and flirtatious!"The moment the man attempted to grab Carrie's hand back, she became aggressive. Sean wouldn't let go of her hand. He turned to face her brother, who was likewise taken aback by what had happened. He moved his neck, pointing outdoors, and said to his brother, "Mr. de Lara, please take her away from here." Sean gave her a quick glance to let her brother know that she was the one he meant to take away from that place. Just blinking, her brother was staring at his boss. Mr. de Lara!" Sean was raising his voice a little more to awaken his brother, especially since Carrie was still trying to attack her. Carrie appeared to want to scratch her face as she raised her two hands in the air. "Come on,
SEAN'S POV He hurried over to Joshua as Carrie was beginning to settle down with the aid of her parents. "Where did you take her?" He was referring to the woman that Carrie had been arguing with after he announced that there would be no wedding. Joshua was still, just gazing at him. "Mr. de Lara!" He grew irritated with his reaction. Even the guests who were leaving the house of the woman he was supposed to marry caught his attention. Some of them looked at him unfavorably, but he didn't care. "Actually, S-she is my sister, Sean. I mean , S-sir." He was now the one staring at Mr. de Lara's face. Is that woman Mr. de Lara's sister? He furrowed his brows. As the guy is Mr. Rado's accountant, one of his business partners, he is familiar with Mr. de Lara. How come Mr. de Lara's sister needed to sell her virginity for money when her brother is being paid by his company for a handsome amount? He had the thought that perhaps the reason the woman agreed to sell her body that evening
SEAN'S POVYazmin had already turned off her phone. He was determined to get her to accept his offer, so he wanted to get used to calling her by her real name.As soon as he got home, he immediately headed to the library. He quickly reached for a bottle of wine, poured some into a glass, and then took a seat in front of the table in the library. When he finishes his work after business hours, he frequently hangs out there. Because his home library doubles as his office while he is there, he doesn't frequently work late at the office.He pulled the folder out of the drawer, flipped it open, and sipped the wine straight away.He once again read what was written there. He had a copy of his father's final will and testament, which was written last year.He wanted to forgive his father for all his sins when he was still alive, but he was unable to do so. He saw the suffering his mother endured before she passed away from extreme depression.When he was young, their family was happy. He is
She left early for home. She had trouble sleeping. She didn't know if her parents were still at her Aunt Ellen's place or if they had come home. She spent the entire night attempting to memorize the explanation to offer to her parents, but she was still at a loss for words as of this moment.She could not be honest with them. She could not say that she had met the man at the party and that something had happened between them that same evening.Come what may...She was still hesitant to enter as she stood in front of their wooden gate. She didn't arrive until ten in the morning. Before opening their gate, she closed her eyes.Outside their home, she noticed clothes lying around.Those are her belongings and clothes!They were simply strewn on the floor next to a huge empty bag. What she saw made her worry even more. Even if her parents didn't know what had happened, she knew they would be angry with her. What she didn't expect was that she would be kicked out of the house because of it
She hurriedly moved because she didn't feel anyone following her. She didn't go more than a few steps before stopping when Dino drew near. After a few weeks, they finally met."Yaz..." His voice started to beg as soon as her name was mentioned.Is it really necessary for two men to ruin her entire day or life?Dino looked at her puffy eyes and the bag she was carrying and froze in shock."Where are you going? Were you crying?" He inquired anxiously."Stop pestering me now, Dino. I'm tired. Please leave me alone." She avoided the man as she answered slowly."Yaz, we need to talk." He was trying to block her way.She inhaled deeply."Marry me this instant, please."Oh my! How many marriage proposals will she receive that day?"Please, Yaz... Let's go far from here after our wedding."She fixed her gaze on her ex-boyfriend's face. She was able to see his face pleading plainly. She still has feelings for him, but they are tainted by his betrayal of her and her best friend, Mhariel.They s
"Are you done sulking?"She was even startled by that baritone voice. While her thoughts were preoccupied with Mhariel and Dino, she forgot that she was inside his car.Only then did she notice that they had already passed by the bus terminal a while ago. She turned right away to face him."Why didn't you drop me off at the terminal?" She frowned when she asked that.He didn't say anything; he just sat there and stared at her."Do you even know where to go?" He focused his gaze on the road again.She was silent again."Just as I thought," the man immediately added.She was suddenly irritated once more. It seemed as though she wanted to vent her frustration with Dino and Mhariel on the annoying man sitting next to her."It's none of your business! If you don't bring me back to the terminal, I'll accuse you of kidnapping!"Without even turning to face her again, he simply laughed softly while smirking."Fine! Stop the car, and I'll get off!" The way he responded irritated her even more.
"I have no doubt that many women would be willing to marry you, Mr... S-sean. I don't understand why you're offering it to me. Additionally, I don't see why you had to be married so soon after calling off your wedding to my cousin. Do you wish your wedding to proceed even with another woman because you regret the money you spent on the wedding preparations, if there were any?" She was wondering why he felt the need to use blackmail to force her into giving him her hand in marriage, even though they don't really know each other. Since marriage is a serious commitment, you don't just offer it to anyone. He laughed at what she said. "Do you think I care about the money? I don't have to be concerned about the expenses if I marry numerous ladies at once. Although I'm not bragging, I'm stating a fact. The truth is that if I can always make my own choice, I will never want to be married." She was even more confused by what he said. It turned out he's not interested in getting married. "T
He took her to a restaurant because she declined to go with him to his place. She was hesitant to go into his home once more since she knew it would be awkward for both of them. They will remember a hot night they spent together in that house.She simply ordered juice, but he placed a large order for food, so she had no choice but to eat as well.He asked for paper and a pen after the waiter cleared their table when they were done eating.She was surprised when he handed it to her."You can write the things that you want to be included in our deal on that piece of paper."She took it without saying anything. She noticed also that he had paper and a pen, and he began writing on it.She believed that was good so they could clear both conditions on their marriage contract.She was already busy thinking of things she wanted to put into whatever contract they would have. In less than five minutes, he finished writing, and she stared at him. Just to make sure she didn't miss anything, she r
