"Stella!" Hearing Jerlina walking closer, Jimmy stepped aside. Jerlina's stepmother walked in with a bright smile replacing the scowl she had till then, as soon as she heard Jerlina. "What brings you here?" Jerlina put on a bright smile to match her stepmother's. "Oh, dear," Stella wrapped her arms around Jerlina for a hug and Jerlina put up with it. She saw Scarlett behind Stella and she pulled out her phone to record after passing the baby to Bobby. Jerlina nodded with a smile. They…-

"Well, it's not like that thought didn't pop into my mind..." Jerlina shrugged. "But I knew you'd tell me if it is something regarding me, right? Otherwise, your other businesses... I am not that curious to know about them. I am fine without knowing your secrets till now. I can survive in the future too." Jeremy sighed. He didn't know what to answer her. He wanted her to be curious about his business. But he can wait. Jerlina was a little scared to know his secrets; especially what he does as a…

My Jer would never betray me. She is angry at me, but she will never fall for Emma's brother. But what is this one planning? Why did he come to find me? "What do you suggest?" Gerard pretended to be interested. "I'll be honest with you, Gerard," Harold patted his back as if he was a buddy but Gerard found that infuriating. "I don't like to see Jeremy happy either. Should I be happy that he got to marry the woman he loved for ten years?" Harold's lips curved to a smirk seeing Gerard's face…

"Jerry, has Emma changed a lot?" Bobby's face filled with hurt and Jeremy let out a sigh. Others might feel scared to talk to Jeremy about Emma, but Bobby had the right to speak to Jeremy about anything. "I don't know, Bobby. Has she? You tell me... That day, her face was filled with extreme rage and pure hate as she tried to attack Jerlina. For what?" Jeremy rubbed his forehead. That image of Emma is imprinted in his heart. He never thought that Emma could make that expression never. "Chippy?"…

Jeremy's little guy down there got excited on its own as her voice was so seductive. And her breath... "Shut up," he hissed and Jerlina looked at him. "Why?" she asked. She could see from his expression that he's feeling uncomfortable somewhere. And judging by their position, she could understand where he is uncomfortable. In a way, she felt sorry for him. He must have blue balls by now. "Okay," she tried to get back. She was not in the mood to help him in any way for now and so she decided…

"Oww..." Emma covered her face with her hand unable to bear the bright light. "Close 'em!" she shouted. "Hmm..." Harold sat beside her and checked her face, fixing her hair that was all over her face. "The bruise on your face got healed. What about the bruise to your ego? I heard that the lumberjack didn't call you?" He then wiped his hand on the sheets. "Eww! Your hair... you really need a shower, sis!" He looked at the nasty sheet with disgust, "And a new sheet." "Get lost!" Emma gritted her…

Jeremy was stunned. He didn't think she could shout this loudly. His ears hurt. "Yes, Ma'am," he let her go seeing her angry face. Earl got spooked by her shout and ran out. "Thank you!" Jerlina got up and walked to the bathroom. Although she thanked him, Jeremy detected no gratefulness from her voice and his heart sank. What happened suddenly? She was fine last night! Is she mad that I sneaked into her room? Did she leave the door open accidentally? What have I done! He wondered if he…

Jerlina watched Jeremy rehashing that day and seeing how immersed he was, made her heart warm. All the while she was thinking that she had no one, there was this man who was treasuring the memory of her in his heart for years. She didn't find the "words of wisdom" as he put it, that impressive. Those words he cherished were just some commonsense advice her grandpa gave her. "It seems like I repeated my grandpa's advice to you," she said as they alighted the car when they reached home. "Ah, I…

Jerlina knew that everything would be different had she knew. "But I am glad I got to know them all now. If not, we would still be distant," she pressed her lips. "I wouldn't have gathered my courage to talk to you openly and you never would have known why I was scared of you in the first place." "Yeah," he held the back of her head and placed a kiss on her forehead. She is right. That day, she got drunk and spoke a lot to him. After that night, she was a bit open with him and communicated her…

After seeing her making scared and angry expressions at him, at times he'd feel like her expressions now might be a mirage or a dream. Like he was in a coma where he dreams joyful dreams that she fell for him. But no, that is not possible since he learned about some other things that hacked his heart too. And he could see... he could feel her warming up in his embrace. He knew she is not someone who can act. Has she started to fall for me? Jerlina trembled a bit sensing the warmth from his…
