Chapter 9His sinful eyes followed Heart’s butt. Her hips were swaying as she walked towards the door. He bit his lip, almost lost in thought. She stood there.It seemed like he wanted to change the rules and regulations. He wanted her to be awake every time they had sex, so there would be some participation from her.Lux really enjoyed last night. Heart was enjoyable.He smiled and kept his lascivious thoughts to himself.“Sir,” the cashier said, pulling him out of his thoughts, “We’re heading to the vault now.”He nodded and signaled the guard to accompany them. That was the usual routine.He followed the woman as they walked to the manager’s office.The manager hadn’t arrived yet, but he had access to the office.They entered and went straight to the vault. He was the only one who knew the code, apart from the manager. When others were present during the retrieval, they kept their distance. She entered the combination of numbers.When it opened, she took the only item inside, a bro
Chapter 10LUNCH BREAK.Heart’s mind flew like a bird while she ate with her friends. She ate without restraint, but her thoughts and attention were absent.“Slow down, you might choke,” Gigi said to her, causing her to look at her friend.Her gaze was meaningful, but she couldn’t share anything with others around. Gigi looked at her wrist and slightly pulled up her sleeve.“A souvenir?” She asked discreetly, to which Heart nodded.“I’ll tell you later.”Gigi nodded, “Sure. There will be plenty of opportunities.”“Hey, Heart, Mads and Olive are going to some government agencies today. They said they’re going to inquire about the requirements for getting assistance for your Dad,” Cecille told her, and she nodded.“Thank you.”Even with all the help coming in, she still couldn’t find peace. She felt like there might still be a shortage for medication. Her mom texted her, saying she would find out more about her dad’s illnesses.This meant she needed to prepare money for hersel
11Heart felt her hand being held by Lux as they both simultaneously grabbed the car door handle. She looked up at him. She hadn’t expected him to open the door for her on the passenger’s side of his expensive forward car.If Vandros’ car is expensive, how must Lux’s car be? It was different from the car he had brought to the restaurant earlier. Billionaires really lived a different life.The young lady quietly got into the car when he opened the door, saying, “Thank you.”It smelled wonderful again, just like Lux. He got into the driver’s seat and started the car quietly. According to Heart, she should have sat in the back, but she felt too shy to do so. She didn’t want him to think he was her driver.They didn’t talk. She felt extremely awkward. Even if she wanted to speak, what could she say? They didn’t know each other. She had seen Vandros at the restaurant for a while, and she was quite comfortable with that manager, so even if she had to boldly ask for help, she would.She fel
Chapter 12: LuxThat was totally insane. Lux was utterly captivated by her presence. Heart was so affectionate. He couldn’t tell if she was just trying to impress him or if she was genuinely caring. Earlier, she had been serving everyone, even though it wasn’t her job. Her actions displayed a remarkable level of maturity, as if she were highly skilled in taking care of the people around her.After all, he had overheard her reprimanding her sibling over the phone earlier. He had heard her words and seen her pain. Despite wanting to judge her for entering such a dirty profession, he couldn’t. Her reasons were entirely justifiable. He himself had witnessed the burdens she carried, not to mention the concerns she had for her siblings. Perhaps those were the problems left behind in whatever province she came from.Now, they were close to the hospital where he was going to drop her off. She didn’t seem too comfortable around him, but her face appeared at ease. She held a check for one hundr
Chapter 13“I CALLED Lexa earlier to check on her and Lexus,” Heart informed her mother while they were walking down the hallway. She was about to leave, as Lumeng was going to accompany her to the bus stop. She tried to keep herself strong and not show any weakness to her father. She wanted things to go smoothly with his operation.She was pleased because, initially, when they were at the Legazpi hospital, her father was supposed to have surgery the next day, but it had changed due to their lack of funds. Conrad had made it to Manila.“What did Lexa say, dear? Are they okay? I left some money there for them. I told them to manage with it for now. How are they doing?” her mother asked while they walked, their arms wrapped around each other.“Lexus didn’t go to school, Mom. He said he’s quitting.”“Oh my God! Is he out of his mind?” her mother asked angrily, coming to a stop.“I’m frustrated too because he’s taking the lead in decision-making.”“He’s making your father’s condition wors
Chapter 14 SHE smells like candy. Fuck. Lux tugged on Heart’s long hair as he first entered her tight womanhood. He sniffed her nape and sank his teeth into her flesh. The hem of this restaurant uniform is only raised at the waist. As he ordered, it had no other covering, except that. Why does it smell like candy? It didn’t smell like candy last night. He didn’t know if it smelled good but it looked like it did. He heard a low moan from it and it even pushed him to his feet. She seems in pain. She wasn’t wet yet but he already penetrated her. Then he sobbed suddenly. He hasn’t inserted his penis much yet, just the head. He moved slowly but it almost squeezed his thighs and seemed to not want to let him in. Every time he thrusts, her body moves away and the moans are suppressed. Shit. He held her boobs inside her dress. He squeezed them tightly and then closed his eyes as he let out immediately. Heart was suppressing her cries, muffling herself so she woul
Chapter 15EVEN early in the morning, Heart had already made arrangements to visit the hospital to check on her father who had undergone surgery. She had intended not to sleep last night, but exhaustion overcame her, causing her to fall asleep while waiting for an update from Lumeng.When the young woman woke up, there were text messages from her mother, indicating that the operation had been completed, but her father hadn’t been brought back to his room yet. However, the doctor had reported that her father’s condition was stable. She felt immense relief upon receiving this news, and a weight lifted off her shoulders. Her worries had lessened, and she could focus on work, at least to some extent.Heart was happy as she approached her mother in the hospital. “Mom,” she couldn’t help but smile, and her mother mirrored the same expression. They embraced each other tightly, on the verge of tears.Heart glanced through the room’s window and saw her father surrounded by various medical equi
Chapter 16 – LuxHe was even more regal than a king as he entered the restaurant, his eyebrows raised in arrogance. He decided to have breakfast there since he had lost his appetite at home, thanks to his wife’s ‘mood swings,’ which she considered “right” even when they were wrong. She even left despite their misunderstandings. In his mind, he wanted to make amends before going to work, but not anymore. He was always the one making the effort, even when he wasn’t in the wrong side. Perhaps Diana had gotten used to being pampered. Just because Diana was smart and wealthy, she constantly felt like she had to compete with him. What could possibly be wrong with him?“Oh!” a waitress screamed, and he watched as she dropped everything from her tray.“Bullshit!” he cursed angrily and gave the woman a sharp look. “You’re so stupid!”She froze, and everyone seemed frightened by the intensity of his shout. “You won’t receive your salary for a month!”He left the crying woman, who was cleaning u
