When we sorted out the cluttered papers on the floor, I adjusted his tie and ran my hand over his slightly messy coat. I smiled because of that. He also picked up my blazer. I even laughed a little there and blushed. He put my blazer on me.

”Ill take you downstairs, ” he said as he held me on my back to lead me outside.

I immediately shook my head as refusal. I don want to bother him anymore. ”I can handle it. ” I smiled.

Why is Brandall so handsome? I thought Lucian and his cousins were the most attractive men Ive ever met, but I didn expect Brandall to come.

”Good luck with the meeting, Brand, ” I said and kissed him on his cheek. I could clearly see his smile when I pulled away from him. ”Eat what I have prepared for you, ” I told him.

He smiled and nodded. We both knew I had just bought what I gave him. I don know how to cook. Compared to me, he is the one who often cooks for me. I don know anything about house-related work, so Im glad when Brandall is still doing what I should be doing. I smiled because of that. Hes husband material!

”Ill go ahead first. Ill wait for you at home. ” I said goodbye.

He kissed me on my forehead. ”Take care, please. Text me when you get home, ” he said kindly.

My heart pounded because of what he said and did. Home. He told me home even though he knew I would stay in his condo. He actually says my house is his house too. I feel like my house is also his house. Its fun. I feel like I am not alone. That he is home.

I nodded and kissed him on the cheek before turning to leave.

”Be careful in driving. ” he chased.

I am driving on my own. He doesn want me to drive alone. I looked at him again and smiled. ”Yes, sir. ” I smiled at him and saluted him.

He looks amused, but his eyes tell me hes serious. He waved at me. ”Im serious, Mademoiselle, ” he said in a serious tone. I smiled. How I love when he calls me with that. He is the only one who calls me that.

He keeps calling me mademoiselle, my lady and sweet.

My smile softened. ”I know. Don worry, you will see me in your condo kicking. ” I winked at him.

He groaned. ”Im really serious, Lucila Anika… ”

And oh! That too! My full name! I laughed. You will know he is serious when he calls me by my name.

”Eat your food, Brand. Ill see you later. ” I smiled and left before I could change my mind.

When I got out, it was as if my heart relaxed. My heart keeps on racing when I am with Brandall.

”Bye, Aya! ” I bid goodbye to Brandalls secretary. Aya became my friend since shes a friend of Brandall.

”Be careful, Maam! ” Aya said goodbye. Aya is a nice woman. I like her personality.

I smiled at her. ”Thank you, Aya. ”

I went straight to the elevator after bidding goodbye. And every time I pass by with the other employees, they keep telling me to get home safely. I just smiled at them. The people who work for Brandall are friendly.

When I was in the elevator, I couldn help but think. How quickly events happened to my life.

I wasn this dependent on anyone. I know I love Lucian and cannot live without him, thats what I thought, but I have never been so dependent on him since he has lots of responsibility. I don want him to think that Ill trouble him. I want him to see me as an independent woman. A strong woman and he doesn need to worry about me. I don want him to worry and think Ill be his responsibility. I don want to be a burden to him. So as much as possible, Ill act tough when Im with him.

But since I met Brandall, I was so restful with him. Maybe because he knows what I feel about Lucian, I don need to pretend in front of him. He knows that I may look tough, but I am easy to be hurt. He clearly understands what I feel just by looking at me.

I was afraid that I might not be able to leave Brandall. I know everything will end, and our affair is not an exception.

People come and go. You have to be used to it.

I sighed. I don want to be sad or hurt, but I can help it.

Honestly, Im so lucky to have met Brandall. It seemed so impossible that I would meet him. Brandall is very successful at a young age while all I know is to spend money and travel around the world.

Hes so prominent as a young businessman and talented, so its a wonder he was able to be this patient with me. Surprisingly he tolerated all my whims.

He is known in the field of food production. They are the supplier of goods. I know their main branch is actually at Casa Dela Torre. They have their own farm for the foods they import to sell and produce new goods. They own malls and supermarkets.

Brandalls already a billionaire at the age of 26. Hes a good catch. Those fathers who were in the business field will surely want him to be their son in laws.

While I, on the other hand, I used to be a freelancer. I used to be a model. I am good at painting and an interior designer.

My parents are not forcing me to work at our company. I don know how to run our company since I don see how it works. My parents allowed me to spend only on things I wanted or thought of buying. All my luxuries are given by my parents without any questions. My parents, even my age, spoiled me a lot since they treated me like their princess.

I got a text from Brandall while I was in the elevator. I smiled.

Brand:

Please take care, my lady. Ill see you later, love.

The elevator rang when it reached the ground floor. I smiled and got out and went straight to the car. I drove it to Brandalls condo near his office.

I received a text from him again after I arrived at his condo. I smiled and read it.

Brand:

Are you home safe?

I smiled, and I texted him back. He is very thoughtful and sweet.

Me:

Yup! For you, I made sure I will 🙂 See you later, babe. I won disturb you, but later I will so better finish your work early, Sir 🙂

First, I sat on the sofa to relax. I was suddenly tired.

While I was sitting, I took my phone out and scrolled to search. I was still looking for something he could eat. I didn know what to cook since I am good at it.

Should I cook or just buy us dinner? Which one should I pick?

Gosh! Its so hard to choose what to eat!

I did a lot of thinking, and I decided to just cook. But, what should I cook?

I looked at my cell phone again when it beeped for a text.

I thought it was Brandall, but I was wrong.

I saw his name, the name of the man I loved, the reason I met Brandall.

Lucian.

Every beat of my heart hurts. I bit my lip, and my hand trembled when I looked at his text.

Lucian:

Where are you? You are not in your condo.
