The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 26: Closer Each Day
TRUE to his words, nanligaw nga si Reeve. Never in my life has someone courted me, but I'm not saying that I didn't experience having blind dates. I did have a few, maybe five or seven blind dates courtesy of my mom. When I started studying in medschool, doon ako literal hindi nakapagdate or nakapagflirt dahil masyado akong engrosed sa pangarap ko.I was too busy achieving my dreams to date and think about men.And somehow, I don't feel like dating because of what happened in the past that involved Reeve and me."Wife, your necklace." The bubble inside my dead burst when I heard Reeve's deep voice.I blinked when he fixed my necklace because it was on backward. He also strokes back my baby hair that was covering my face. Tumitig siya sa'kin saglit bago tumaas ang sulok ng labi niya."There you go," he muttered."T-Thanks." My cheeks flushed. His small gesture really makes me awe-struck.For me, those small gentures are more genuine than the grand gestures since you can plan or sche
The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 27: Surprise
PASADO alas singko na ng hapon noong magsimulang maubos ang mga tao sa covered court. Finally, malapit na kaming bumalik sa Manila."Maraming salamat po, Doctora. Sana po marami pa po kayong matulungan na kapos palad," nakangiti ako habang pinapakinggan ang mga pasasalamat ng mga naging pasyente ko.They went here to meet me and sent their gratitude to me. Binigyan nila ako ng mga kakanin at iba pang produkto na gawa sa Pampanga. Tuwang-tuwa naman ako dahil natulungan ko sila."Walang anuman po. Masarap po sa pakiramdam na nakatulong ako sa inyo," I smiled genuinely at them. "Salamat po sa mga 'to." I pulled up the plastic bag full of Pampanga's delicacy.We took a group photo with other volunteers, which will be uploaded on the website of Areno. We bid our good bye to the members of barangay Arayat before we entered our cars.This time, I'll ride with Reeve. Si Doc RJ na rin ang nagsabi na kay Reeve na lang ako sumabay kung gusto ko. Pumayag naman ako dahil sa iisang bahay lang nama

THE first rays of sunlight lit up my room, indicating that another day had dawned. I rubbed my blurry eyes and walked to the window. I pulled up the white curtain, revealing the pearly glow in the sky.Today is a rest day for all the medical volunteers. The Areno's director— my mom, gave us a two days rest day after the one week we spent on the medical mission. Today is a great day to rest and enjoy the freedom from the battlefield of my work.I took a deep breath before I headed to the bathroom to wash my face. I mentally listed everything I thought of doing today— yoga, cleaning the whole house, grocery shopping, binge-watching a movie, and maybe I can learn how to bake something!I was hopping on the stairs wearing a pair of ombre sports bras and leggings. I tossed my hair into a bun. I was holding a yoga mat when I bumped into someone. It causes me to drop the yoga mat.Napahawak ako sa aking dibdib dahil sa pagkagulat. "I thought you already left!" My eyes dropped at my phone to

PINANLAKIHAN ko siya ng mata nang marinig ang sinabi niya. How come he is directly looking at my eyes when saying those words? Hindi ba siya naiilang? Where is he getting all of his confidence?I bit the inside of my cheeks."May balak ka pa ba magpadagdag ng tattoos?"He shrugged. "I wanted to, but I won't get a new one if you don't like it." he retorts.I sighed. "I'm fine with you getting another tattoo. Huwag lang marami saka malaki."Napatango naman siya sa sinabi ko. Kumuha siya ng popcorn na nasa lamesa saka niya ako sinubuan na alanganin pa akong tanggapin. He smiled a little when I accepted the popcorn.I swallowed. "Have you had a girlfriend before?" kitang-kita kong natigilan siya sa naging tanong ko.Based on his reaction, he had women before."So, is it before or after we got married—" I yelped when he grabbed my arm and spun me around until I straddled one of his legs. My blood flared in my cheeks as he tightened his grip on my waist.Our eyes locked, and my heartbeat i
The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 30: First misunderstanding
REEVE and I were eating breakfast when we both heard the doorbell. We glance at each other before Reeve decides to stand up and check. I was casually sipping my coffee when I heard a bark from the living room, causing me to turn my head.I quickly stood up to check if I was thinking right. My mouth parted when Beau and Scout came running to me, wagging their tails."Omg! Hi, babies!" I greeted them using my baby voice. I caressed their head and looked around, trying to look for their Dad.I felt the awkwardness when I saw a good-looking guy standing a meter feet away from us. Kausap niya si Reeve at kitang-kita kong sabay silang bumaling sa direksyon ko. I wanted to divert my gaze from them, but my eyes were stucked in their direction. I just gave them a reluctant smile. I heard footsteps coming closer in my direction. I stood up with dignity and met their gaze. The guest of Reeve was wearing a simple workout outfit. Mukhang kagagaling niya lang sa gym at nang matapos ay dito siya d
The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 31: Mommy
I lick my bottom lip and puff a breath. "Well, I don't know who spread that rumour, but it was Nurse Eva's rap. Siya ang nagsabi kung nasaan ako,"Nanlaki naman ang mga mata ni Nurse Eva at mabilis na nagtakip ng mukha. All of us looked at her. "Sorry naman, dra! Nagtanong kasi siya kung saan exactly iyong medical mission, wala naman akong balak sabihin pero. . . Ang gwapo kasi, 'eh.""Marupok ka, Evangeline!" Dra. Eunice gently hit Nurse Eva's arms, causing us to chuckle.I shake my head. "It's fine lang naman. But is he really that handsome?" I asked her."Opo, dra," she giggled. Napatingin siya kay Dale na tahimik lang sa gilid. "Uy, baka magselos ka, doc, 'ah? Don't worry, ikaw pa rin ang number 1 crush ko!" She proudly stated.Heat quickly drew on Doctor Dale's face. Dra. Eunice and Dra. Nikki teases them both. Tuwang tuwa ako habang nakatingin sa kanilang dalawa. Not gonna lie, they look suitable for each other."Hello po, doc! Hello po, Nurse Eva!" Some interns stopped at our
The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 32: A piece of the story
MABILIS akong nakarating sa bahay at bumuntong hininga nang maabutan si Reeve sa living room, nakaupo siya habang may binabasang mga files na nakalagay sa folder. He's wearing an olive green sweat shorts and a plain fitted black white shirt.I took an exaggerated sigh. He raised his head, and our eyes met. Ibinaba niya ang hawak na folder sa coffee table."Wife," His voice was pitched low and rough."Let's talk after the dinner," bungad ko sa kaniya at nilagpasan siya. Pumasok ako sa kwarto namin at naglinis ng katawan.Nang kumain kami ay parehas kaming walang imik. Mas nauna rin akong pumasok sa kwarto at naupo sa sofa. I crossed my arms on my chest while waiting for him. Handa na akong tanongin siya sa nangyari noon."Kelsea, wife," Reeve says while holding a glass of milk.Pinigilan ko ang sarili kong mapangiti dahil dinalhan niya ako ng gatas. I just gestured to the couch in front of me. "Sit," utos ko.Naupo siya sa couch na nasa harapan ko, humalukipkip at bumuntong-hininga. H
The Millionaire's Runway Wife CHAPTER 33: Awkward
NAGING abala ako sa mga sumunod na araw sa trabaho. Hindi kami masyadong nakakapag-usap ni Reeve simula nang mapag-usapan namin ang nangyari noon. Para kaming bumalik sa pinakauna. A transparent barrier formed between us since I learned the reason behind our marriage.Areno's charity ball is only two days away, and I still haven't told him about Mommy's invitation.

Napatunayan niya ang sarili niya sa akin kahit sa maikling panahon lang. Kahit papaano naman ay nakilala ko na rin siya.
